tation Company to Serve
Country Without Railroad.
Captain L B. Gray, who has been
ateamboetins on the Columbia and its
tributaries for 25 years and tor the
last It years has been running steam
era on the Upper Columbia for the
Columbia Okanogan Steamboat
Company, is about to go into the
steamboat business for himself. With
j. e, proctor, who has been hia purser
for the last aix years, lie haa formed
the Columbia River Transportation
Company, and a force of men will leave
for Wanatchee. Wash., thla morning
with Louis Payuet to begin building
the first stern wheeler of the new line.
I'aquet built the Norma, the Chelan
and tha Yakima, and la credited with
havinr built some of the fastest stern
wheelers on the Upper Columbia.
The new boat la to be 120 feet long
with a beam of 32 feet. She will have
frcsa compound engines. 11 by 60
inches. She will have a carrying ca
pacity of 100 ton and accommodations
for 100 paasengera. The cost will ba
110.000 to J13.0O0.
The reason for the particular size
of engines which will ba Installed on
the new boat Is economy of fuel. It
due to fuel trouble that the boats
of tha Columbia & Okanogan Steamboat
Company have been tied up since the
beginning of this month. They cannot
compel with the Great Northern Ball
road from Wenatchee to Orovllle on
tho Columbia Itlver, according to Cap
tain Gray.
1 expe'-t we will have the new boat
In operation by October 1." aald Cap
tain Gray yesterday. "We will run
from Wenatchee to Bridgeport, a dis
tance of 80 miles, and make occasional
trlpa of 0 to SO mtles above to the
Nespelem country, which la a rich
mining country, but it la hard to get
the ore out on account of the river
being hard to navigate. You have to
pass through tha notorious Box Canyon
and the Spokane Kaplds. I have made
the trip aeveral times and I am con
fident that I can take the now boat
through. Right years ago I took the
ateamer Echo from Wenatchee to Ket
tle Falls, a distance of 300 miles. We
were 14 daya going up and a day and
a half coming down. That gives you
some Idea Of the force of the current."
The new steamer line will handle
mostly tr.e fruit and wheat, crops from
the opposite side of the Columbia to
that on which the railroad runs. Cap
tain Gray said that It was estimated
that S00 carloads or fruit would be
: hipped out of the Wenatchee Valley
this seaaon.

Purl or Portland Tow boat. Just Over,
hauled. Injured 70,000 Worth.
The Port of Portland towboat Pronto
waa damaged badly by fire or mys
terious origin yesterday. The loss is
estimated at from 110.000 to 116,000.
All of the upper works were destroyed.
The fire occurred shortly berore 12
o'clock.
The Pronto had been otr the Port ot
Portland drydock only two daya. She
had undergone a general overhauling
and new canvas had been put on her
cabins. She was lying alongside a
vow In the drydock allp when the tire
broka out. John Lindberg, mate or the
dredge Columbia, and the engineer of
the steamer John McCraken, now in
the drydock. saw smoke Issuing from
the Pronto and gave the alarm.
The hull of the Pronto la not dam
aged badly, although Nome of the deck
beams may have to be replaced. The
boat cost in the neighborhood of
$30,000.
fc..XXl IS DIE TOMORROW
V el eriou-l Ianin-d Off China
Three Days. Aheud of Time.
The German steamship Saxonla, of
the Hamburg-American line, which la
due here tomorrow, arrived In Seattle
at 11 A. M. yeaterday, three days ahead
of her sailing time from Yokohama.
It will be remembered that the Sax
onla was reported as having run on the
rocks at Tsingtau, China, last February.
Ho aerlous waa the grounding tht the
veeseal waa all but abandoned as a
total wreck. But for the remarkable
salvage work of the Japanese it la
doubtful whether the Saxonla ever
would have been hauled from her pre
carious position on the reef.
She was seven weeks on the rocks
nd it took eight more to repair the
damages, at a cost or $200,000, on the
drydock at Nagasaki. Ninety-five
plates had to be stripped from the bot
tom and a section of new keel fitted.

STORY OF BIBLE SHOWN
.1000 PERSONS SEK FILM DEPICTING
EPOCH OF CBKATIOIv.
Production Financed by International
Students' Association Presents
Events In Impressive Manner.
The story of the Bible is being told
at the Old Helllg Theater, Eleventh
and Morrison streets, In beautifully
colored moving pictures. Admittance
Is free.
The opening: bills of "The Creation"
yesterday were played to capacity
houses, both afternoon and evening.
The tally kept by the officers of the
International Bible Students' Associa
tion, which is financing the produc
tion, shows that approximately 3000
persons attended the two perform
ances, beginning at 3 P. M. and 8 P. It
The entire story of the Bible is
divided into four epochs. The first
epoch, which will be shown again to
day and tomorrow, embraces events
from the creation to Abraham. The
other epochs, said to be even more
beauttrul than the first, will be con
tinued during the coming weeks.
The aim of the film reproduction is
to give the history of tho Bible from
an educational rather than from a sec
tarian viewpoint. The pictures are so
selected and presented that the events
are made far more Impressive than
when they are read. Most of the
slides are hand-colored. The scones
depict the actual topography of biblical
events. Each picture Is explained to
the audience by a phonographic record.
Reproductions of several of the
world's most famous paintings also
were shown on the screen.
Among the most Impressive scenes
in the first epoch are "The Deluge,"
"Abraham's Sacrifice" and the "Crea
tion of Flowers." lowers and grains
are shown aa they blossom, ripen and
grow. Of the famous paintings, "Sor
row and Mourning Begun" and "Ex
pulsion From Eden" are perhaps the
most prominent.
Rev. Mr. Russell, pastor of the In
ternational Bible Students" Associa
tion, Is the author of the presentation.

Chicago won only two of seven

NOVEL TEXT IS CHOSEN
Peple Who Ought to Be at ItsjaWd"
Is Topic Set by liectiirer-I'astor,
Who Will Join Bryan on
Chaittanqua Tour.
"I am going to have Just one oppor
tunity to see my friends in Portland
and to make them hear me. before I go
back to the East to join Secretary of
State William Jennings Bryan In mak
ing merry the hours on the Chautauqua
circuit," said the Rev. James Whlt
comb Brougher, of Ixs Angeles, In
Portland yesterday on his way to Gear
hart, where he is to Join his family and
"play golf."
That one time will be next Friday,
when he will run up from Gearhart to
deliver in the White Temple, hla lec
ture on "People Who Ought to Be Muz
zled. "
He said yesterday that he knew lots
of them, but didn't want to take thei
edge off of any of his thunder next
Friday, by tipping them off to the
newspapers in advance. This lecture,
by the way. has never before been
given in Portland,
Dr. Brougher attended the services
at the White Temple yesterday morn
ing, at which his friend and colleague,
the Rev. W. B. Hlnson, preached, and
he loft in the afternoon for Gearhart.
"I usually play golf with Rabbi Jonah
B. Wrise," he said, "when 1 am at
Gearhart, and If he Is not there this
week I don't know what 1 shall do
about It. Last year we played a match
in which I was to Join his synagogue
if he won and he was to become a Bap
tist minister, if I won. We called it a
draw. I'd like to get another whack
at him this year."
Just before Dr. Brougher left Los
Angeles they put on there a "Nimble
Dollar Campaign" to counteract the ef
rec of the depression talk that was
going the rounds, and Dr. Brougher
spoke In behalf of the campaign in
most of the clubs of the city. Every
clubman pledged himself to spend a
dollar more than lie had planned on
spending that week, and as a rosult of
the movement more than 11,000.000
were put Into circulation and everyone
got into a fine optimistic frame of
mind.
ZION CORNERSTONE LAID
DUTCH CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH
HURRIES TO COMPLETION.
Dr. Dyott Says It Were Better to Use
New Edlflee as Skating Rink Than
Tarn Children Elsewhere.
The German Congregational Zlon
Church members yesterday celebrated
the laying of the cornerstone of their
new church building, at East Ninth and
Fromont streets, which was begun In
May and to be completed In September.
The building already Is far progressed,
the basement being finished and fur
nished so that services now are being
held in it, while the superstructure is
under roof and almost ready for the
interior finish. The estimated coat of
the building is about $10,000, the fund
for which is being raised by the mem
bers themselves. The congregation
only was organized In April.
Services preliminary to the laying of
the cornerstone were held In the baae
ment room, which was crowded to ca
pacity. Rev. Luther R. Dyott. of the
First Congregational Church, was the
principal speaker,
Dr. Dyott declared that the duty of
the church today is to supply to the
community, both old and young, all that
it needs, so that there may be no rea
son to seek elsewhere, and to hold
Christ In the highest position In rela
tion to the life or the whole community.
"I say with reverence that the sound
of roller skates In this room during the
week would be pleasant," he said, "or
that it would be pleasing to jee the
young people of the community gath
ered to enjoy a clean, interesting mo
tion picture show. Better that they
come here, where surroundings and
conditions are the best, than that they
should go elsewhere to seek their
amusements."
Other speakers were Rev. W. C. Kant
ner and Rev. E. S. Bollinger. Rev. J. H.
Hopp, pastor of tho new church, con
ducted the ceremony of sealing the
cornerstone. In it were placed copies
of local papers containing stories of
the organization of the congregation, a
list of the contributors to the building
tund, a copy of the Bible and other
Sunday school and church literature.

HOME LAWS LAID DOWN
REV. W. O. SHANK MAKES 1)1 Ill's
OF PARENTS CLEAR.
Wksti the Child Learns at Hla Mother's
Knee and From His Fnther'a Ex
ample Makes for Future Man."
Among those who preached yester
day on the "Back to the Home" move
ment which was originated by the
Oregon Social Hygiene Society, was
Rev. W. I'. Shank, pastor of the East
Side Baptist Church, who, outlining the
development of the home and family
as the social unit, pointed out the re
sponsibility that rests on the parents,
and tho parents alone, for tho character
formed by the child.
"Children must be taught to obey for
their own good," he said. "The child is
born into a world of laws, and obedi
ence to those laws is necessary to the
good the userulness and the happiness
or the individual. The child who will
not obey hla parents will not heed the
laws of his country.
"The home should be made attractive
in order to hold tho children there. An
atmosphere of good cheer should pre
vail at all times. Children are sensi
tive to environment; they are soon af
rected; their conduct will be In keep
ing largely with the atmosphere In
which they live.
"Neatness should be taught in the
home, ror neutness is next to Godli
ness. Then, for the health, comfort
and good or the child, neatness Is an
absolute prerequisite. Children com
pare their homes with those or others
and they are quick to make con
trasts. "The boy's or girl's room may be
beautified and mado attractive by the
use of aome good pictures and suitable
pennants. If a child once becomes In
terested in hla room and is made to
feel that that Is his, for private use
and possession, much has been accom
plished in keeping him at home.
"When the child becomes restless and
longs for a larger range It Is well for
the parents to go out with It to pic
nics, public playgrounds, for a bout
ride on fishing trips, to parks, or on
hikes. Much of the roaming disposi
tion of tne child may be satisfied in
this way."
COATLESS MAN DEFENDED
Rev. I'- Green Scores Opinion
Which "Violates Natural Law."
The man who sheds his coat and vest
in hot weather, regardleia of public
opinion, finds a defender In the Rev.
Perry Joseph Green, minister of the
New Thought Temple of Truth, who
insisted upon the right of everyone to
be natural and comrortable, In his eer
mon last night upon "Some Fool Hab
its of Civilization."
"Some of the fool habits of civiliza
tion are the requirement! that pro
duce discomfort and dlBease," he laid.
"Because public opinion requires cer
tain conformities men and women wear
uncomfortable clothing, not because
they love to, but because they fear the
disapproval or public opinion.
"If a woman dresses coolly and light
ly some one proceeds to think that he
Is Immoral.
"Whatever In the practice or our civ
ilisation Is unnaturul is destructive
and damning. H it was the custom t')
do always the natural thing the world
and Its Inhabitants would soon become
happv and more Ideal.
"Our laws are built negatively,
namely: 'Thou shalt not.' which I s re
pression, repressive or destructive."
