Rev. J. H. Garrison, F.dilor of
Christian Advoutite, Praise Kc
ceptlon Given to belt-gales.
Probably never before In the history
of the Christian Church has such re
ligious demonstration taken place as
that of yesterday, when 135 pulpits of
tha city of Portland were filled by min
isters of this organization.
"I do not recall a time In the history
of our church conventlona, where we
have been so royally received as In
this city, where t!:e churches of other
denominations than our own have
turned over to us their beautiful edi
fices for worship and general conven
tlon sessions, said Rev. J. H. Garrlsprt,
editor of the Christian Advocate, a pub
lication of the Christian Church. In his
Address at the First Presbyterian
Church.
"The Increasing desire for the unity
of the divided church is one of the
great slgna of our times." declared Mr.
Oarrlson. "Many platforms have been
suggested by different ones, most of
which are Impracticable. But Christ
Is the simple, and only way to union.
We are first to be united to him. as
he Is united to the Father, according
to his prayer In John 17. and when we
become united to him It Is easy for us
to become united to each other.
Thrlst Is the way to the conquest
of the world. He Is still In his church.
He is only waiting for his church to
become united, that he may lead it on
to victory and to universal conquest.
Perhaps the work seems slow, but It
Is nevertheless .sure."
Almost every Protestant puplt In
Portland was filled yesterday by
preachers who are delegates to the
convention of the Christian Churrh.

Manuscripts Are Front Collection of
Eugene Bible I'liiversity and One
Is Written on Vellum nnd Ik
00 Years Old.
" A Latin manuscript Bible, written on
vellum about A.- D. 13"'. and perhaps
earlier, la on of a collection which
Eugene C. Sanderson, president of the
Eugene Bible University, has on exhi
bition In the basement of the White
Temple st the International Christian
Church Convention. This book antedates
tha first, printed book by JaO years. It
Is a volume of 5SS pages. Although 600
years old. the Ink of the text has scarce
ly turned brown. Some of the marginal
notations are badly aged, however. Imv
ing apparently been written with a dif
ferent sort of Ink from the text.
The writing is finer than the finest
newspaper type, although the, work shows
that It was sll done by hand, the pases
having been finely ruled before the let
tering was done.. The material of the
leavea Is supposed to be antelope skin,
although It lsyBS thin as ordinary paper.
The book has apparently received care
ful ussge. .yet it Is considerably worn
from tluimblng. especially among the
Old Testament books
Book Contains Apocrypha.
The arrangement of the books Is prac
tically the same as the arrangement in
the King James version, but this manu
script copy begins with Exodus and ends
with Hebrews. Whether Genesis and
Revelation were removed (rom the origi
nal volume .because they became too
badly worn, belnj near the covers, or
whether they were "never a part of the
book, cannot be - told. The binding Is
very ol. ktit the book may- have been
rebound since It was written. This vol
ume contains tfie Apocryphal books of
tha Old Testament.
The lettering shows that the book was
not all produced by one person, as the
sise and style of the writing differs
somewhst with tha different books. At
the top of tha page half the name of
the book Is on one page, and the other
half on the opposite page. For Instance,
In Eseklel. "Ese" Is on one leaf, and
"klel" on the other.
The oldest manuscripts extant are the
Alexandrian manuscript, fainaltlc manu
script and Vatican manuscript. The
Alexandrian manuscript was copied In
the fourth or flftlcentury. and is now
In the British Museum. The Vatican
manuscript Is in the Vatican library at
Rome, and the Slnaltlc manuscript is
In the Imperial library at Ht. Peters
burg. The three are written on vellum
In Greek uncials, or capitals.

It among these. This bears tha data of
USX. X51 yeara after the first printed
book. The rubricating la all dona by

Apocryphal books. Tha arrangement of
tha New Testament is somewhat dif
ferent from tha Bibles of today, the Acts
following Hebrews Instead of being be
tween John and Romans. The volume
contains the preface by Jerome.
An original Tyndale New Testament,
printed In loot, and known as Richard

Clash With' Bulgarian Flenlck
ers He Attacked Them,
. They Tell Police.
A mysterious revolver battle between
a lone 'Servian and a party of 30 Util
itarian picnickers In Macleay Park
about 11 o'clock yesterday morning; re
sulted In the fatal wounding of the
Servian, Peter Alexsoff, who died at
St. Vincent's Hospital while surgeons
were probing for Uie bullet. One of
the picnickers, who declared that they
had been attacked without provoca
tion by Alexsoff. was shot in the led.
.1. H. Sextun, a special policeman,
who had heard the shots, came run
ning mi Just In time to prevent the
Hulsarlans from lynching; Alexsoff,
who was lylnR prostrate and uncon
scious on the prround with a bullet
wound lu his abdomen. The eScited
men were pommeling him murderously
and several of them were searching for
a rope with which to hang hLm from a
tree.
Fcixl of Long Standing.
The police believe the battle, the de
tails of which are wrapped in mystery,
was the result of an attempted ven
detta by Alexsoff, growing out of an
old-country feud. Though of differ
ence race, Alexsoff and the Bulgarians
were fellow-townsmen in the same city
tn Kurope, and some of the picnickers
declared at the police station that a
bitter quarrql had existed between
them before they came to America.
The story told by the Bulgarians
puzzled the police. To a man they de
clared that they had been seated quiet
ly under the trees In the park, when
the Servian suddenly dashed out of
the brush into their circle, a knife in
his teeth and revolver In each hand.
He becan shootlne; at them, they said,
but as the frightened men scattered to
escape ills bullets he as suddenly
turned around and ran back Into the
undergrowth One of his shots struck
John Costaprlnce. proprietor of a small
store at Fourteenth and Marshall
streets, in the les. The wound Is not
serious.
Weapons Handed to Policeman.
Aii hour later, according to the story
told the police. Alexsoff appeared
again and the b'attle was renewed.
Just -as Policeman Sexton appeared a
final shot was fired, and when the of
ficer had succeeded in pulling off the
Bulgarians from the prostrate body of
Alexsoff one of them named Mike Crist
handed him an automatic pistol and a
revolver, which he said had been Alex
soff's weapons.
Sc-xton thought at first that Alexsoff
was unconscious only from the beat
ing: he had received and loaded him.
with three of the Bulsarians. in a llKht
watcon and drove them to the police
station. There the wound was discov
ered and Alexsoff was hurried to the
hospital. He died as City Physician
Zlegler was trying to extract the bul
let. The police are suspicious of the part
of the story to the effect that Alexsoff.
slnele-handed. attacked a party of 30,
and are socklnn evidence to show that
he wps a member of the party when
the quarrel broke out. They are now
searching; for Crist, the man who held
the weapons last, who disappeared
after handing them to Sexton. The Bul
garians declared that Alexsoff accident
ally shot himself while thev were fight-
Two physicians at t. Vincent's Hos

FIRE DANGER GREAT
Montavilla Citizens Renew Ef
. forts to Get Protection,
MAYOR TO BE PETITIONED
Suburb of 10,000 Population Has
Lost $68,000 In Recent Blazes
and Asks That the City In
stall Needed Fire Company.
Petitions for fire protection for
Montavilla district will be presented to
the new Mayor and Executive Board
this week. These petitions have been
circulated under the auspices of the
Montavilla Board of Trade, which has
been working for protection In that
part of the city, without results for ,
more than a year.
At one time a petition was presented
to the former Executive Board, offer
ing to buy a lot If the city would build
a firehouse and install a fire com
pany, but this offer was not accepted,
nor has any other action been taken
by the city. Fires In Montavilla have
destroyed property valued at $35,000
In a little more than one year, and
only last week property worth $6700
went up In smoke. A fire more than a
ear ago destroyed property valued at
26,000. There have been many fires
In this suburb, and In each case it has
been demonstrated that the fire com
pany at East Sixty-second and East
Stark streets. Mount Tabor, Is too far
away to be of service. The buildings
burn down before the engine can be
dragged up and over Mount Tabor Hill.
A fire station Is wanted at some point
on East Eightieth street, between the
Base Line road and Villa avenue. Large
water mains are now being laid
through Montavilla, so that a fire or
hose company could be operated ef
fectively. A. N. Hearts, secretary of the Mon
tavilla Board of Trade, said yesterday:
"We have been trying" to get fire pro
tection for a long time, but for some
reason our petitions have been ignored.
We hope for better results from the

other sections are (retting1 fire protec

are entitled to fire protection, too.
"With other property owners, 1
signed a petition offering to buy a
lot If the city would provide fire pro
tection by building: a fire station and
install a company. I now think it the
duty of the city to give us the same
protection it Rives other sections, and
not require our people to purchase a
lot. The city itself bought the lot at
Mo.unt Tabor, at Kenllworth, and at
other suburbs."
