PEKLV. Jan. 15. Report from Har
bto My the Chinese are vigorously op
sonin the lummirr disposition of
bllN of those who here died from the
bubonic plague.- The authorities do not
dare burn them, the people desiring
that they remain Intact o that their
ancestors may recognise them In the
future life. .
Tiiy also oppoae the burning or
bou-. ome of which contain the
dead bodies of entire families. Some
of the corpses have remained In the
city for day, but they are now be
In taken to the open country where
trenrhea for their burial hare been
prepared.
Ko.ians Are Actle.
It Is reported that the Kuaalana In
Harbin are not concerning themselves
with the Chinese section, although they
are dealing dramatically with the Chi
nese within the Ruaelan city. The
Chinese newspaper are raising an
outcry and brlniclng forward serious
charges of persecution and burial
alive. Members of the legatlona who
constantly recommended measure to
the government, are suggesting cen
sorship of the press.
The plague Is of a very virulent type.
Peath usually occurs within 4 hours
and not more than 1 per cent of the
rases have ended In recovery. Dr. O.
E. Meeny. a French physician, who
gave himself up to combatting the dis
ease, died heroically.
When be realised that he waa at
tacked by the plague, he Isolated him
self In his room In a hotel, drafted his
will and wrote farewell letters. He
begged his friend not to notify hi
wife of his Illness, and died alone.
ixx-tora See Hopeleewnesa.
Already the doctors recognise the
honele.nes of attending to those
stricken, and they are devoting their
energies to fighting the spread of the
disease. The Intensity of the cold
weather ha caused the people to re
main Indoors, thus fostering Infection.
The danger of the plasue getting a
foothold In Pektn la considered slight,
as train service to and from the In
fected districts has been stopped. An
American woman doctor has gone from
here to Harbin. 80 have several others.
The doctors have been Inoculated and
are equipped with special costumes
and masks. The aovernment Is Insur

the essence of a sentient report made

Commissioner of Corporation.
"The Bureau of Corporations." he say,

"In outline this system should be one

were promised that they would receive

The metnod of electing committees is

NEW YORK. Jan- IS. Announcement

to open up the problem of available, sup
plies of capital for investment aim i
success to be expected In meeting re
quirements. The turn of the year and
the reflux of funds to reserve centers
was all that was awaited to enter upon
this necessary process.
The New York City JSO.000,000 bonds, to
be issued, before the end or we mom",
proved larger than had been expected.
The decision to make the denomination
44 per cent instead of the xpected
per. cent was interpreted as a reflection
of increased confluence on the part of
capital.
It was assumed that assurances had
been obtained from banking sources of
sufficient subscriptions to make the sale
a success before the details had been
decided upon. On the other nana, ine
heavy tone developed in me oiaer rew
York bond Issues was evidence of some
strain In the bond market, growing out
of the new Issue. .
The reception accorded tne announce

AVIATION FIEi-D, San Francisco, Jan.
15. For the first time in the history of
aviation in this country, according to
Army officers here, a loaded bomb was
dropped from an aeroplane on Camp
Selfrldge field today and exploded. The
experiment was made by Lieutenant
Crlssy, of the Coast Artillery, flying with
Philip Parmalee In a Wright biplane.
At - a height of 4T6 feet Lieutenant
Crlssy released the shrapnel shot, aim
ing at a clear spot of ground near the
lower end of the field. A puff of smoke
as the missile struck, showed the sue
cess of the experiment. The shot was
capable of wounding within a radius ot
70 yards, and great care was exercised
In selecting the place for dropping it.
Lieutenant Walker, of -the Eighth In
fantry, also was carried aloft today for
the purpose of taking protographs and
makine observations. Walter Brookins
took him up in a Wright biplane, and at
a heieht of about 1000 feet Lieutenant
Walker made six- snapshots with his
camera of Camp Selfridge.
The field was rain-soaked, but the bird-
men had no difficulty in ascending. Air
conditions were excellent and many In-
tereKtini- flights were made.
James Radley. the Englishman, made
another visit to San Francisco this aft
ernoon in his Bleriot monoplane.
In descending from his passenger-
currvlnir trlD with Lieutenant Walker,
Brookins brought a shriek of delight
from the grandstand by a spiral swoop

Comfort in eye-glasses or spectacles are things about which you
should be very particular.
So is style. For style is comfort to your'esthetic sense.
There are plenty of style opticians, but comfort, opticians are as
rare as radium.
The man who combines and fills the two demands, stands superby
alone.
Thompson makes glasses that have individuality, style and comfort.
This man must be very lonesome when he wants to talk shop.
Thompson knows when glasses fit, and he is in business to bring
wrong eyes and right glasses together.
Thompson would feel it a calamity to sell any one a pair of glasses
that didn't cause the wearer to bless the seller every time he wore
them.
Thompson's glasses do not cost any more than other makes, but they
are worth more.
The human eye is a delicate mechanism, and is understood by few.
Thompson does not claim to be a poet, a sculptor, nor yet a social
darling. He is just an optician who has been in Portland for over
eleven years. He knows the eye needs of particular people.
He is a specialist in this line, and devotes himself to the happiness
of his patrons.
Thompson has only his offices in the new Corbett building, but his
glasses are worn on the Avenue de l'Opera, Pall Mall, I nten den

offices are in the Corbett Building, Fifth and Morrison streets,
