The Chicago Glee Club possesses the reputation of being- the greatest bunch of "repeaters," on the Lyceum platform today, and, following; their concert at Gladstone Park this afternoon. 2500 Chautauquans quickly saw the reason. Their concert was one of the real hits of the assembly. Notwithstanding the fact that G. T. Henry, baritone, U. F. Thomas, second tenor. J. W. Turner, first tenor, and C II. Dixon, basso, gave their four thou sandth concert today with the same personnel which started from Chicago 15 years ago, their voices are fresh and buoyant, and admirably well managed. A pleasing novelty of their programme was their trombone quartet, and the rendition of the Pilgrim's Chorus from "Tannhuuser" was exquisitely done. Mothers Out In Force. Mrs. A. King Wilson presided at the Oregon Congress of Mothers headquar ters this afternoon and a great assembly of women heard Mrs. M. M. Chlttendon speak on "Foods for Children After the . First Year." Another feature of the iay was the reception given at the Unl. versity of Oregon headquarters this afternoon. Miss Mozelle Hair was in charge of the affair. Mrs. Mattie Hardewicke Jones' elo cution class each morning in the audi torium at 9 o'clock is one of the pffi cial Chautauqua centers. Under the leadership of Mrs. John Risley, of Rislev Stattion, with Mrs. Joseph Prudhomme, .Mrs. Judge Earle Bronaugh and Mrs. W. J. Thatcher, of Portland, and Mrs. George C. Brownell. of Oregon City, as chief assistants, the Oregon State Congress of Mothers is aiding materially in making Chautau qua history this year. Mrs. Prudhomme is making a great success of the kindergarten, Mrs. Tooze and Mrs. Brownell are In charge of the headquarters, while Mrs. Thatcher and Mrs. Bronaugh have been the inspira tion for a series of highly interesting discussions which have been given dally at 3 o'clock. Mrs. Risley and Mrs. Prudhomme have worked especially hard, and their successful efforts for the Mothers' Congress have attracted wide attention. Dr. HIorob Talks to Crowd. Today's programme carried many In structive gatherings. Dr. W. B. Hinson spoke before his usual large, attentive audience. "It is not always the worst man who commits the most open sin. We are all of us moral in spots. I would rather be a drunkard than a slanderer. But when 1 look at Jesus and measure myself beside Him, I real, lse that I am a terrible sinner." L. H. Weir spoke again today on the playground movement, and showed an interesting series of pictures with his talk. Dr. Edna Eugenia Lowe's health talk, given this afternoon at S, was on "Colds and Catarrh." Thursday is Patriotic day and G. A. R, men will throng the grounds as fcuests of the Chautauqua. AH old sol diers wearing the little brown button will be admitted free. The famous Oregon Drum Corps will be on hand. The big feature, however. Is Dr. Thomas K. Green, who speaks at 2 P. M.. on "The Burden of the Nations." Green Is one of the few really great platform stars of the day. Chautauqua Sidelights GLADSTONE PARK. July 16. (Spe cial.) "Great shades of Bill Bry an." muttered a w:ell-known Molalla farmer as picturesque Bill Hanley strolled past the auditorium last night. If there is any place in the world where Hanley could be palmed off as Bryan, that place is at a Chautau qua, for the one big luminary in the Chautauqua world today is the Secre tary of State. e e "Dr. Lowe will give you colds and catarrh at & o'clock this evening," an nounced President Homan this after noon to 2500 Chautauquans. He tried to explain that she would lecture on "Colds and Catarrh." but before he suc ceeded, half a dozen ladies had sneezed, and one wag had sniffled most audi bly. Mrs. M. M. Harding, of Troutdale, Is conducting "Banner Camp" at Chau tauqua for the sixth consecutive year. The comfy little corner is the "clearing-house" for a large number of Troutdale people who belong to the big Chautauqua family. "More than 150 of our friends registered with us last year and there will be that many again this session." she told the Oregonian man today. - E. Kenneth Stanton, mill secretary of the big Willamette Paper mills at Ore gon City, has labeled his camp "Safety First." Mr. Stanton has been preach ing this slogan to 800 mill-workers for the last six months, and, presuma bly from force of habit, felt obliged to "talk shop" while enjoying Chau tauqua with his wife and family. County Clerk Will Mulvey and wife are also enjoying life at the "Safety First" camp. Among the well-known Partlanders who heard the Hill good roads lectures were Colonel C. E. 8. Wood, Mr. and Mrs. William Hanley. Anne Shannon Monroe, Colonel Emmet Callahan and Vr. and Mrs. Thomas C. Burke. e Chautauqua society consists of two classes, the "Dos" and the "Don'ts." The "Dos" wear bloomers at the ath letic pavilion, while the "Don'ts" do not. Samuel Hill and his big audience were forced to adopt a policy of "watchful waiting" Tuesday evening. Mr. Hill was to speak at 9 P. M.. fol lowing Professor Daggy's lecture. "Bill" Hanley was to Introduce him. First, however, one of Mr. Hill's old time friends was to make a few re marks. Dr. Homan Introduced the old time friend at 9. He, the old-time friend, talked for exactly 27 minutes, when a good-natured audience finally applied the brakes. Mr. Hanley's speech was brief. Prominent Progres sives intimated afterwards that the whole scheme was a diabolical plan to keep "Bill" Hanley from doing the introduction stunt In real genteel fa shion. see Mrs. Robert A. Booth, of Eugene, Is enjoying every session of the assembly. The Oregon City Commercial Club has an attractive agricultural display near the auditorium. Secretary O. E. Freytag is in charge.

TAXIGAB SERVICE 86V2 BROADWAY, NEAR OAK NEW CODE OPPOSED Small Electrical Concerns En ter Protest With Council. CASH DEPOSIT .ATTACKED Independent Workers Declare Post ing of Forfeit In Addition Jo Surety Bond Aimed to Drive ' Them Out of Business. What electrical workers declare Is an attempt on the part of the city's electrical code revision committee to put small wiring contractors and inde pendents out of business tor the bene fit of larger concerns, is to be the cause of a lively fight before the City Com mission. Opening guns. were fired yes terday when the report of the revision committee was submitted, to the Coun cil and electrical workers appeared to present objections and ask for a hear ing. They were assured that they would be granted a full hearing In time. In the new code as proposed by the committee it is intended to require every man going into the electrical business to put up a J500 surety bond and to deposit with the City Treasurer a cash bond of J100. Electrical work ers say that the whole Intent and pur pose of this plan Is to eliminate the "one man" electrical concerns because many of them cannot furnish $100 cash. At present a man desiring to install wiring has to furnish the 500 surety bond to guarantee the work and to pro tect the '.house owner from Incompe tent and fraudulent wlremen. They say, however, that It is purely a mat ter 'of forcing them out of business to Impose the $100 cash bond. Eugene Smith, representing the electrical workers' union, appeared be fore the Council yesterday and reg istered a protest against the new ordi nance. "It is viciouB. un-American legislation." he said. "It is an effort on the part of a few people to corner the electrical business and create a . n , xkIo. nnnuRA Ihp cash bond oroo- osltlon as well as some of the other provisions of the new cooe. City Electrical Inspector Dunlap said the purpose was to eliminate inferior work and to decrease fire risks. The new code, he says, is aimed to combine all of the old electrical ordi nances into one measure. Changes have been made in some of these so as to alter the number of outlets and the limit of wattage oil circuits. The proposed code was referred to City Commissioner Dieck, who wMl grant a hearing in the near future at which all persons interested will be permitted to explain their views.
