CROWDS ARE TURNED AWAY Taylor - Street Methodist Churcli Taxed to Accommodate Worship pers Old-Time Tones Heard. Services Continued Tonight. T suppose the pastor thinks I haven't been singing- very much today. But I will slug again for you. I had to sing this song five times for them in St. Louis. I hope I do not have to sing it so many times tonight, for I have already sung: 27 solos today." This was the heart-to-heart way In which Professor B. P. Stout, the sing ins evangelist, expressed himself to the immense crowd at Taylor-Street Methodist Church Sunday night. Dr. Benjamin Toung, the pastor, had asked Mr. Stout to sing another song for the benefit of those standing. He had Just sung "Poo" Little Brack Sheep." His last song last night was "I Want to Be There, Don't You?" "If you feel like shouting at any time, do it." he told the people. "My pastor used to soy, 'If you feel like shout ing, shout, and If you feel like jumping, Jump.' Brethren, we have been getting away from the old times, when we used to say . "Amen.' That's what I like to hear, is a good hearty 'Amen' once in awhile." Before the meeting closed the men were shouting "Amen." and the women, "Praisa the Lord." Hundreds wer9 turned away from Taylor-Street Church last night. The great crowd which packed both the main floor and the gallery of the large auditorium extended down the double steps at the front of the building as far as the singer could be heard. Every foot of space was occupied. Tonight an overflow meeting is to be held in the Sunday school room on the first floor of the church, where Mr. Stout will sing, as well as In the auditorium. Among his selections for to. night will be "The Sword of the Lord and of Gideon," "The Model Church" and "The Song Angels Can't Sing." Dr. Fletcher Homan, president of Wil lamette University, will be the speaker tonight. All the Methodist churches of the city have consolidated with Taylor Street Church for the evangelistic serv ices, which will be held every night for two weeks. "The Work and Ministry of -theHoly Spirit" will be the general topic for 'this week. A large chorus choir Is in charge of Stanley Baker, and Profes sor Stout is to sing at all the services. "Fellows," said Evangelist Stout, "do you remember when you started away from home? You remember how your mother came out to bid you good-bye? With her hair parted in the middle, and brushed right back over her ears, in rtmple, old-fashioned style they didn't have rats and such things then. "I'm going to sing you a song out of this line now; I want to mane you feel good," he said. "It's to the tune of the Wearing of the Green." and the name of the song is, 'He's Juft the Same Today.' "Tell Mother I'll be There," came next. Yesterday morning Dr. Young preached on "Faith s Vision." CHIEF STOPS DANCING FUTDS OLD "STATE LAW THAT GIVES AUTHORITY. Hereafter, He Says, Dancehalls Must Conform to Statute and Close Sunday. Chief of Police Cox got after the dance halls Sunday night and ordered that they be closed and remain so every Sunday In the future. Sunday afternoon and evening have formerly been regarded as the banner times of the week by the dancehall pro prietor, from a mercenary standpoint. The dancehall feature has heretofore been one of the magnets which attract ed throngs of people to The Oaks, Coun cil Crest and other amusement resorts on Sundays. These places also have come under the ban of the police ohief. The action of the police head came after he had dug up an old. musty stat ute book which included a state law nrrv- hibiting dancing on Sunday. He made a further investigation and found, so far as he was able to learn, that this partic ular law had never been repealed. No city ordinance was ever drafted that might be Interpreted to place a lid on Sunday dancing. . Guided by the state law, enier Cox issued the order forbid ding dancing in amusement resorts. CHINA TO USE LOTTERY "Prize Debentures" to Be Adopted for Raising Funds for State Work , SHANGHAI, . March 5. (Special.) Apparently me Chinese government is following the eiamnle set hv .Tnnan in the matter of raising money for ina uirrying out. or state enterprises. Prize-bearing debentures are being is sued to the amount of $5000, the pro ceeds to be devoted to railway con struction. This is the plan pursued by the Hypothek Bank of Japan, and the result is that funds are obtained far more cheaply than would be pos sible by any other process. Lotteries, in the strict sense of the term, are forbidden in Japan, but the law excludes from the category sys tems which provide that every buy er or a ticKet snail receive a prize of some sort. The purchaser is guaran teed against any loss- whatever. The worst that can happen to him is to find that he has invested his money at a slightly lower rate of interest than he could obtain in the open mar ket, and the best is to obtain a sim ilar investment, plus a substantial prize. ENTRY BY TWO PROPOSED Senator Burkett Has Novel Idea for Homestead Law. ORBGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, March 6. Something entirelv new In the way of public land legislation has been proposed by Senator Burkett. of iseDrastca a dill to permit two persons to make a joint homestead entry. The idea is so novisi, and the scheme of the bill so different from anythine heretofore at tempted, that it is Impossible at this time to tell what fate awaits it. The Burkett proposal ig briefly this: two persons, both of whom are qualified homestead entrymen, may make a joint homestead entry, residence upon the land and general compliance with te home stead law by either one of the entrymen being sufficient to make final proof and secure patent. , It is stipulated in the bill that at the time the Initial entry is made each entry- man shall designate the part of the tract entered to which he intends to secure : title. Furthermore, if one entryman falls to reside upon and cultivate the home stead land for the five years required by law, he must show that he has con tributed not less than toOO toward the sup port of the entryman who established the homestead rights of both. Where either ! entryman utterly fails to comply with the I requirements of the homestead law as to residence., cultivation, etc.. the other en tryman may complete entry and receive patent for the entire tract by showing compliance with the homestead law. The bill Is somewhat crudely drawn. but the presumption is that joint home stead entries shall be made for only 160 acres, though this is not stated. Nor is there any stipulation as to whether or not Joint homestead entries may be com muted. These details will be worked out in committee, if the bill is given serious consideration. SON EXILED BY MOTHER MAX MUST LEAVE ILLINOIS TO ESCAPE PROSECUTION. Payment of $500 Demanded to Teach Lesson Woman Beaten In Dispute Over Money. AURORA. 111., March 3. Banishment forever from Illinois, the sale of his property so that he may pay $500 to his mother, and the promise that he will never try to communicate with her are the penalties Aliin Marclay. will pay under the charge that two months ago he beat his aged parent over the head with a poker in an attempt to kill her because she would not fur nish him with money. By paying this price he will be assured Immunity from prosecution for the alleged assault. Since the recent trouble with her son, Mrs. Marclay has steadfastly re fused to see him, although he has made repeated attempts to gain an audience. The terms of the strange settlement were made through friends of the family. -As long as my son remains within the boundaries of the state I will take steps to prosecute him for assault with attempt to klU, Mrs. Marclay told the intermediaries. "Let him leave so he will never trouble me again and I may have a chance to forget his ln klndness." When Marclay learned of his mother's command he - agreed to carry it out. Me win have a sale of his prorertv within the next 10 days, and will also relinquish his possession of the farm ne is renting. The most peculiar part of the agree. ment is. the demand that the son pay the mother $500. ' It 1b said the cause of the mother demanding the money is to teach th son a lesson. She wishes to prove to mm that the brutal way he is alleged to have secured money is not only erroneous, out that it cost him money io ao so. unere are tnose who believe that she will place the money out at interest and will give the principal and interest to her son- after her death. Mrs. Marclay, until death breaks the bargain, will remain firm in her in tention that her son carrv out .her demand for exile from the state. She is quoted as saying that nothing will alter her stand. Marclay's return, to tne state would mean his arrest. CHINESE TO FIGHT GRAFT Salt Tax Hereafter to Be Collected by Government Officials Only. SHANGHAI. March 6. fSDecial.V Prince Tsai-Tse, president of the board of finance, is reported to have taken the important step of transferrins: the duty of collecting the salt tax from the local authorities to the central gov ernment. j.nis is one or the most im portant sources of revenue in China and its collection has hitherto been entirely in the hands of the -Viceroys and Governors. It is hinted that the old system was responsible for a good deal of peculation. In any case, the change is regarded, from the point or view or sound finance, as a whole some reform. Chinese customs returns for 1909 show a considerable improvement over tnose of the two previous years. The development appears to have taken place entirely in North China. Thus at the stations in Manchuria, there was an increase of no less than 74 per cent as compared with the collections in 1908. In the valley of the Yangtsze. However, there was a considerable re duction, although Shanghai showed an improvement. After Manchuria, the most remarkable development was at Tientsin and Chlentao. The figures are regarded as a substantial proof of trade revival in North China. SHIP STOLEN BY PIRATES Crew Killed, Cargo Disposed of, and Vessel Is Then Sold. SHANGHAI. March 6. fSreclal. Piracy is still practiced with impunity in Southern China. Recently a junk. wnn. a large cargo of unhulled rice, bound for a seaport near Canton, anch ored for the night at Pakongkeu. In the darkness the vessel was boarded by a score of thieves, who. after desperate struggle, overpowered the crew. they bound the captain hand and foot, lashed him to the anchor, and dropped him overboard. The remainder of the crew were drowned in a similar ly cold-blooded fashion, and then the vessel silently weighed anchor and slipped down the river. Next morning a member of the ship's comoanv who spent the night ashore was Informed of his comrades' fate by some fisher men. It was subsequently ascertained that the vessel was taken to Shanshui where a steam launch was requisitioned to tow her to Ch'ant'shunfeu, a large grain center near canton. Here the cargo was sold for some $2000, after which the vessel was dis posed of for a nominal sum. JAPAN GIVES CONCESSION Foreigners May Secure Title to Land if Home Country Open to Japs. . TOKIO, March 5. (Speoial.) News papers state that it has been virtually decided to extend to the citizens and subjects of foreign countries the priv liege of land ownership in Japan.

Just think of it. One can drive or ride without going out of the limits of Laurelhurst. But this is only one of the many excellent features which make Laurelhurst the most magnificent residence section of Portland.

IS READY FOR TRIAL Prosecutors Confer, Express Satis faction Over Progress Report May Be Ready In Few Says. Wade H. Ellis Attends. WASHI NQHON, March 7. "It Is now for the Federal Grand Jury to decide whether a probable case has been made out against the. so-called . beef trust, and the Government officials will not attempt by any unfair or unusual means to influence the Jury's action one way or the other. The case is In their bands and the responsibility Is with them." This statement waa made at the De partment of Justice yesterday, at the conclusion of a conference on the beef packers' case, which was participated in by Wade H. Ellis, recently assistant to the Attorney-General in charge of the trust cases: United States Attorney Sims, of Chicago, his chief aide; James H. Wllkerson and Oliver E. Pagan, of the Department of Justice. The whole case was thoroughly considered and the statement was made that the con ference was In every way satisfactory.

Meat prioes have advanced in all the princi pal consuming and producing sections of the world, according to statistics compiled by the Department of Com merce and Labor. The report shows the chief meat exporting countries of the world to be Australia. New Zea land. Argentina, Canada and the United States; the chief meat Import ing countries are the United States, Germany - and to a less degree all the European countries. The United States, Germany and to a less degree all the European countris. The advance in fresh meat prices Is less than In, salted and preserved meats and in nearly all cases the advance in beef is less than that In pork and mut ton. The fact that the percentage of ad vance In the price of fresh meats, espec ially those shipped in the chilled or frozen state, has not been as great as the advance In salted or preserved meats. Is said to be due to reductions in the last few years in the cost of chilling or freezing and of transporting meats of this class. The advance in mutton is regarded as due- to the comparatively slow growth In the world's supply of sheep. Unemployed May Not Interfere. ST. IXTTIS, March 7. James Bads How, the wealthiest hobo in the country, who has organized the unemployed into the National Unemployed Association, has been requested to go to Philadelphia to take charge of the unemployed there and prevent their being used to break the general strike of labor unions. The re quest that How go to Philadelphia was made in a telegram from Charles Fergu son, Jr., a son of Mra Georgia Ferguson, of Washington, president of tha National The above includes the number of miles of hard-surface paved streets on both sides of the river which were in place on January-1, 1910. Of this 34 miles were on the East Side while 36 miles are on the "West Side. This does not, of course, include any new contracts for paving which were not laid then. The largest paving contract ever awarded in Portland was for Laurel hurst streets. Just think, there will be almost as many miles of paved streets in Laurelhurst alone as on all of the East Side.

CHURCH ANNEX IS DUE First Presbyterian Church to Build Ten Stories. Ten stories high will probably be the annex to the First Presbyterian Church of this city. Dr. 8. A. Brown, a member of the building committee, said Sunday night that this Is the present plan. Actual work Is to be started as soon after next Sun day's meeting In the church as the building committee can arrange. All members of the churcli have been urged' to attend the meeting next Sun day morning, when It Is expected that enough will be raised to swell the build ing fund to, more than $50,000. How much the building committee bas already secured it refuses to divulge. The completed structure will probably cost at least $100,000, but the trustees of the church are said to have refused to give their consent to the letting of the contract for construction work until half the amount necessary to put up the com pleted structure is raised. Dr. Brown said that it Is expected to raise $50,000 at least by next Sunday. It will be nec essary to borrow the balance. The First Presbyterian Church owns a half block at Twelfth, Alder and Thir teenth streets. More than half of this quarter is covered by the church. The annex is to be erected at Thirteenth and Alder streets. The church property ex tends for 60 feet along Thirteenth street from the corner of Alder and for 50 feet along Twelfth from the Alder street cor ner. Those members of the building com mittee who could be reached last night declined to say what would be done with the large amount of space in the con templated ten-story building. Dr. Brown said what space was not needed by the church would probably be rented. It now seems probable that the build ing as first erected will be of seven or eight stories, with walls and foundation of sufficient strength to bear the weight of additional floors later. A dinner was held by the building committee last Fri day night, when the various large sub scriptions, secured were reported and mental calculations roughly made of the I amount which will be necessary for the new structure. "We shall go ahead with the work at once," said Dr. William Hiram Foulkes last night, "no matter how much money we raise next Sunday. We have six or eight active men who are on the com mittee visiting among our church mem bers this week and endeavoring to se cure what pledges they can. "After next Sunday's meeting our building committee will get together, foot up the sums received and pledged and make arrangements for the work. Dr. 8. A. Brown, who was a member of the T. M. C. A. building committee. Is a member of this committee. "The plans have been completed by the architects, although they may have to be modified somewhat. "Several months ago we almost gave up the thought of a gymnasium, because the Y. M. C. A. and Multnomah Club are so nearby. But we are going to take care of our boys, and If a gymna sium is necessary in order to do this, we shall put in one. We shall at least have rooms for the boys. How much ex pense we shall go to for this part of the annex I do not know, but we have strong business men of the city backing us in the matter."
