Th! mean that the latent project pro vided for will be rushed to completion. Owlnc to the rise In the Columbia Rlrer the dlsTKer will be unable to work In deep water near the mouth to advantage, but It Is proposed t send her upstream, where the upper reaches may be worked successfully. As tl:e season advances and the Columbia re redes the dredge will work throuch the shoal places and clean up the en trance, by which time another appro priation may be available or use had for the plant elsewhere. Chester Smallest of Type. Major Mclndoe was Joined by Captain KeUoijf. of the Kellna: Transporta tion Company, and the trip downstream was made on the steamer Chester, the smallest vessel of her type and draft In the world. The Chester operates on a stream whlr.h at times Is so shallow that at certain points wagons back Into the channel to receive freight from her. Data compiled by Major Mclndoe shows that on the Cowlltx. which Is 4$ miles from Portland and traverses a district that Is furnishing consldiable trade to Tacoma and Puget .'ourd that should be routed to this city, the ordi nary head of navigation Is Toledo. 40 miles from the mouth. The f'rst proj ect was adopted June 14. 18S0, and prior to Government aid belrg given, the average stage of water at Toledo was 14 Inches. The latest act. dated June 1910. provides for a channel four feet deep . from the mouth to Ostrander and a channel two and one half feet deep to Castle Kock. The estimated cost of this work la I--.-000. with HO00 annually for trrJnten anre. Between Castle Rock and To ledo the channel Is to be 40 feet wide. April, but she had S1S0 long tons. The Hank Line steamer Orterlc. which is due In the river tomorrow from the north, probably will establish a new record, as she Is to load 6000 tons of wheat, which Is the amount carried by the Lucerlc, but will also take !. 500.000 feet of lumber. Besides wheat the Lucerlc cleared with 5310 tons of flour and lumber approximating; 870 tons, but the Utter Items will be ofrsel oy tne Orterlc's lumber. The Hercules, which will shift today from Alnsworth dock to Alblna to load flour. Is also to have a full load and May should prove a record breaker for the amount of ton nage dispatched. There have been lar ger cargoes of one character, like the flour cargo of the big Algoa and lum ber carried by the pjornstjerne Bjorn- sen. but not of general stuff. .

SCHOONER AND SHIP TO DOCK Owners Overhaul Vessels In Advance of Offshore Voyages). Before loading for ' Honolulu, the schooner Mlndc.ro. which reached the river Tuesday from Kedondo. will be lifted on the Oregon drydock for cleaning- and painting. The vessel left up from Astoria yesterday and Is to be raised today to remain on the dock until Saturday. She Is under charter for lumber and low dockage rates here prompted her owners to have the work executed before starting her cargo. Another carrier to be docked at the same plant is the French bark Marechal ce Oontaut. which arrived up yesterday with coal and Is discharging at the bunkers of the Pacific Coast Company. The vessel Is expected to be finished so that she can be lifted Monday. So far as Is known she will require no repairs, but owing to her recent move ments and the fact she has spent a long time st sea since her last docking, considerable cleaning on the hull may be required and It will be repainted. The vessel Is to load at the Portland 2(111 with lumber for New Zealand and Australia. AlXORS' HOME MAY SCSPEXD Boarding-nouse Master, Ree No Profit I'nder New I .a v. There are probabilities that after M.iy 1$. when a new law governing sailor boarding-houses becomes effec tive. Portland will be without such an Institution for the first time In sev eral decades. Proprietors of the Sailors" Home assert that as the provisions of the new statute permit them to receive only 111) and a month's advance, which la $25. and ll must be paid to a ship ping commissioner for each sailor signed, their source of revenue will be destroyed. It Is estimated that the average cost of boarding a sailor and supplying him with clothing and general "gear" for sea offsets the advance money and In many cases, when men are scarce and It Is known that a vessel will sail In a few weeks, men are housed and fed for m period that costs more than the ad vance. As l-i Is paid under present conditions and the old law permits ask ing a greater fee. the boarding-house masters say they are satisfied, but can not afford to pay an annual license of $300 and accept only the advance money for furnishing ships with men. To begin loading wheat for the Golden Gate the steamer Northland is to shift today from Oak-street dock to Oceanic After discharging cement at Couch street dock today the steamer Francis IL Leggett will drop down to Llnnton to load lumber. From the dock of the Pacific Bridge Company the steamer Shoshone will leave today for St. Helens, where she Is to work a full lumber cargo for San Francisco. Authority has been received from Washington for drydocklng the light house tender iianxanlta, which Is due In the river the latter part of the month from Puget Sound. The Campbell-Sanford-Henley Com pany will load the steamer Nome City, which arrived last night, with wheat for San Francisco. She will also take a deckload of lumber. To have all necessary repairs made to her hull and house that will place her In first -class condition the steamer Joseph Kellogg was hauled on the ways at Supple'a yards yesterday. In tow of the tug Melville the schoo ner Mlndoro left up from Astoria yes terday and the steamer Ocklahama met the tug in the Columbia and took the windjammer In tow. She la to arrive here today. Congestion on the Portland-Astoria route having been reduced, the O.-W. K. A N. steamer Hassalo was ordered off the route yesterday and will remain at the boneyard until another emer gency arises. Klchard Hart, chief deputy In the office of the Seventeenth Lighthouse District, departed yesterday for Seattle on business concerning the sailing of the tender Columbine for Alaska. E B. Thomson, assistant engineer. Corps of Engineers. V. 8. A., will de part today for Salera to Inspect work being done on the channel between the capital and Independence by the dredgea Mathloma and Champoeg. About June 1 the dredge Oregon, which Is operating In Coos Bay. is to be ordered to Bandon to Improve the channel between that point and Co qullle City. For Coquille River Im provements the last Congress appro priated 5.00ll. With coal from Newcastle the French bark Marechal de Gontaut was entered at the Custom House yesterday with the gasoline schooner Anvil, from Ban don and Oregon coast ports, the Break water from Coos Bay and the North land. Shoshone and Yosemlte from San Francisco. The Breakwater cleared for Coos Bay and will sail this morning. Two bids, each for 75 cents a barrel, were received yesterday at the office of Major Mclndoe. Corps of Engineers, U. S. A. to supply the Government with 40.000 barrels of fuel annually to be consumed by the dredges Chinook and Clatsop. It has not been determined to whom the contracts will be awarded. Sleeping cars of all-steel construction have been ordered by the Chicago. Mil waukee & Puget Sound Railway for use between Portland and St. Paul as-soon as the service from Portland to the Eastern terminus Is established, which, It is expected, will be early in the Sum mer. Service between Seattle and St. Paul I will be inaugurated May 28 with new. steel coaches operating through from one end of the road to the other. Two transcontinental trains, to be known as the "Columbian and the "Olympic," will be run In each direction. As the Mil waukee's right of way Is considerably shorter than that of any existing road, the time Is expected to be somewhat shorter. However, a schedule has not yet been announced. Traffic officials now are conferring with the operative depart ment on. this feature of the service. Order Heaviest on Record. By ordering steel sleeping coaches Tor all Its through passenger trains the Mil waukee placed the heaviest order for Bleeping cars of that class In the history of American railroading. The coaches are to be of the latest Improved pattern and will be virtually Indestructible and fireproof. The Milwaukee sleeping coaches are patterned after original de signs, and while they are of the same general model as the Pullman Company's cars, they are larger In every dimension. The Milwaukee operates Its own sleeping cars on Its entire system. To accommodate adequately the pro posed Portland service, fully 30 extra coaches will have to be built. Present plans provide for carrying one coach that shall operate through from Port land to St. Paul each way every' day. As they will be more than two days In transit and as time Is required at each terminal for renovation, this large num ber of extra cars will be necessary. While definite arrangements for the Portland service have not yet been made, traffic officials of the Milwaukee system constantly figure on this city when pre paring for the Puget Sound business. Elks to Take Early Train. The first extensive business out of Portland that will be routed over the new Milwaukee line will be the special train of Elks leaving here on the night of July 3 for Atlantic City to attend the annual convention and reunion and to secure the promise of the grand lodge to meet in Portland in 1912. It is probable that A. J. Earllng, presi dent of the Chicago. Milwaukee A St, Paul road, will travel over the new line on the first through train that leaves Chicago for Puget Sound and Portland. He has expressed a determination to visit the Northwest cities within a short time, and now is endeavoring to arrange his affairs so that he can make the Westward trip at that time. Mr. Earllng has not been in Portland for six months. Since his last visit reports that the Mil waukee is about to gain an entrance into the city by buying East Side ter minal property and by acquiring the Oregon Water Power trackage from the Columbia River have been frequent. It Is said that he Is carrying on the nego tiations that eventually will place Port land fn the direct line of another trans continental system. If Mr. Earllng comes to the Coast with the first through train he will Include Portland In his Itinerary H. R. Williams, of Seattle, president of the Puget Sound road, will accompany him on his vtslt. STRONG GIVES -REASONS President of Associated Charities Tells Why He Has Recslgned. , "The statement that appeared in The Oregonlan that I was proposing shortly to sever my connection with the Asso ciated Charities Is correct, and this has already been announced to the I post as a bulletin an official poster ad dlrectors and will take effect at the 1 vertlsinsr the exhibition. The letter to next meeting of the Board in June, but I would not like the public to get the impression that a hasty read ing of the news item and its headlines might give them, that this action Is due to any feeling of discouragement," said Thomas N. Strong, president of the Associated Charities, yesterday. "The 22 years of my continuous serv ice as president has made me proof against any such feeling. There has never been In this 22 years of stress and toll a single unpleasant difference of opinion In the councils of the City Board of Charities or the Associated Charities or an unpleasant word spoken, and no one could ever ask for more loyal support than I have had. "Financially, the Associated Charities is about as well off today as It usually is and better off than it often has been. Like the old monks. It took orig inally an oath of poverty and has lived from hand to mouth on its regular subscriptions ever since and kept Its vows faithfully. Nevertheless, In all these 23 years, although often called upon to. spend thousands of dollars beyond its regular income to keep men and women from suffering, it has never failed to audit and pay its bills In full on the second Tuesday of every month. The people of Portland have always loyally supported it both in good times and in bad, and there 1 no reason to doubt that this support will be continued, but If not continue all It would have to do would be shut Its doors. It has no Institution depending upon It. My resignation Is made for two reasons: First, the personal one, that I need the rest, and for a year or two, at least, should be free of the cares of the office. Few people appreciate the wear and tear of such work, or how heavily it bears on the officers of such organizations. Poverty and sor row are depressing In themselves, an to be at the beck and call of the un fortunate and friendless means a heavy and continuous strain. A man mus once In a while take a vacation, and 22 years of public service entitles me now to take mine. "In the second place, the Associated Charities is now at a parting of the ways. It was never Intended as an alms-giving organization. Section 2 c article II of its constitution expressl declares that This society shall not directly dispense alms in any form, It is and was a personal service or ganization to help helpless people t help themselves, and Is compelled to do Its work as skilled physicians at the hospitals do theirs, by the employ ment of devoted men and women paid enough to enable them to give thel entire lives to the work, and with this concept of the hoard's function I am In full sympathy, and I thorough ly believe that the granting of pen sions and the giving of money and direct aid. unless very carefully done, only aggravates the suffering of the poor. Some direct aid must, however, be given in money, clothing, food and shelter, and it is a nice question to determine to what extent this should be done, and In the case of distressed families particularly there is now strong feeling that the direct relief should be adequate, ample and con tinuous, should practically amount to pensioning them as long: as they are in need. Even so high an authority as Dr, Pevlne, the president of the New York Associated Charities, can be quoted as its favor, but how to finance such a proposition in any congested popula tion is a puzzling question, and stag gers even the JSew York Board with Its Income approximating $300,000 year. With the popular feeling as It Is, however, over all the world, the ex perlment of old age, non-employment and other pensions of similar character la sure to be tried, and in my humble opinion even the great governments, Germany. England and the like, will in he end find the results unsatisfactory nd the financial condition dangerous. It Is risky legislation. Now the feel ng exists here that helpless fumllles should be practically pensioned, and heavy pressure Is put on the Associated Charities to undertake the work; and while wishing it could be safely done am, nevertheless, on the one hand un willing to endure the pressure, and on he other hand, unwilling to attempt to finance the experiment. 'It seems to me unfair that 400 or 600 voluntary subscribers should bear burden that would be a heavy one for even the resources of taxation to en dure, and if the Associated Charities is to be called upon by public demand to bear this heavy burden the tax payers of the city should contribute pro rata through the taxpaytng depart ments for Its support.

"Twenty years ago I was taken eick with Typhoid and Malaria Fever, and for a time was at the point of death. As soon as I turned a little toward the better my physician prescribed Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey, and it was Just what I needed to build me up. I have also found It excellent for weak lungs and rheumatism. I am aear the age of seventy, and will al ways continue to use it." C. J. Swan son. 6140 Michigan ave., Chicago, 111. Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey not only serves to keep the bodily health at the highest notch of excel lence, but in typhoid and malaria, es pecially, when the bodily functions are at their lowest ebb and death seems imminent, it is retained by the stomach when other agents are re jected, and as a food and stimulant sustains life until the crisis is passed. While convalescing after fever it is the greatest strength-giver and body builder known to science. It is wonderful remedy in the prevention and cure of all lung, throat and stom ach troubles, and all wasting and weakening conditions.
