TO PAST TEACHINGS
Leaders of Spiritualist Sect
Put Practical Work First,
Mediumship Second.
HEADS OF CHURCH HEARD
'Message" Demonstration Made by
Mrs. Zaltlu Brown Cates, of Wash
ington, and in One Case
Spirit Is Claimed by Three.
MIT.MJANK THOUGHTS FROM
SPIRITUALISTS' MESSAGES.
Don't think because you are
psychically endowed that that
makes you too sensitive to wash
the di&hes or scrub the floor if
they need it.
In the task of relating our
selves to the universe, we must
forget the idea of time.
What occurs between the cradle
and the grave are not the limits
of life.
The weakness of our age is
the teaching it has received from
the past.
If you, as a medium, sit down
and say. "Here I am, spirit
friends, do with me what you
will," the spirit friends will prob-
ably make a fool of you Mrs.
Zaida 13. Cates.
We used to pray in other
churches, "Oh Lord, give us
faith," but the prayer of the
spiritualist is. "Oh Lord, prive me
facts with which to demonstrate
the truth within me."
Spiritualism is the key by
which we can interpret every
step in the unfolding of humanity
in the past and can read the
problems of the future that j re
sent themselves.
Humanity shouldn't worry too much
If it is not able to rerorm itself ithin
the next few years, inasmuch as It has
taken some 30,000,000 years for It to
grrow even to its present state of im
perfection, accordinir to Elizabeth Har
low Goetz, of Boston, one of the' most
powerful orators of the Spiritualist
Church, who addressed the morning
ana aiiernoon meetings of the Spirit
ualists of Portland at the First Church
at Sixth and Montgomery streets yes
terday. "The weakness of our present age, in
every department, lies in the teachings
from the past, and it is the duty of
the present to labor for the eradication
of these effects," she said.
"In working to bring about the har
monious relation between man and the
universe, it will be necessary for us
to forget the idea of time. Men have
been accustomed to think or the limits
of life being the cradle and the grave
and feeling that what man is to ac
complish he must accomplish in the
space within those limits.
"Mesmngresi" Are Delivered.
"But birth and death are only events
within life and are not its limits. We
are today the results of millions of
years of life, and, in the light of this
truth, when we are considering the re
relating of man with the universe, we
must eliminate the time consideration."
Following Mrs. Goetz' address yes
terday, Mrs. Zaida Brown Cates, of
Washington. D. C, delivered a number
of "messages." a demonstration which
to the layman would appear spooky
In the extreme, for she talked familiar
ly with invisible spirits, described the
manner of their death and their per
sonal appearance so that they were
recognized by persons in the audi
ence. '
One spirit described by her was
claimed by three different women In
the audience.
"When three women claim one man
that's too much," said Mrs. Cates, and
she made her description more minute
and thus eliminated the, claims of two
of the women. - -
Both Mrs. Goetz and Mrs. Cates held
mediumship to be of secondary impor
tance in the spiritualistic doctrine, de
claring that practical work in the
world is what counts.
"Don't let yourself imagine that to
be sensitive to the influences from the
spirit world you have to shut yourself
off from everyday affairs, and don't
think that because you are psychically
endowed that it must necessarily be
impossible for you to vash the dishes
and scrub the floors when necessary,"
said Mrs. Goetz.
Church Change Analyzed.
"In childhood, when in one of the
churches, I used to hear the prayer:
Lord, give me faith!" but now. as a
Fpiritiyiltst, my prayer is: 'Lord, give
me facts to demonstrate the faith that
Js within me!'" sai'd Mrs. Cates.
Yesterday's sessions closed the series
or meetings that have been held in theH
past few days by local Spiritualist or
ganizations which visited here en route
from San Francisco and the National
convention. '
The meetings have been regarded In
the light of a "revival" in the Spirit
ualist churches, and the attendance at
all sessions has packed the church at
Sixth and Montgomery, not only with
Spiritualists, but with interested vis
itors of other denominations or be
lief. Yesterday morning was devoted to a
symposium of short talks by Dr. G. D.
Warne, of Chicago, National president;
Elizabeth Harlow Goetz, of Bostor.
Zaida Brown Cates. of Washington, D.
C: Mrs. M. E. Cadwallader, of Chicago,
editor of the Progressive Thinker;
Mrs. Esther C. Hunphrey. of New York,
and Mrs. Ida Drury Piatt, of Brooklyn.
The visitors will leave this morning
for the East. The members of the
committee in eharge of their reception
and entertainment here were: Mrs.
Mary L. Stevens, J. H. Lucas, Mrs.
Anise Sweeney, Miss Anna Dickinson
and Mrs. Robert Schmus.
Sermon Thoughts From
Portland Churches.
"T"
E Christ Who Lives and. May
was the topic of Rev. John H. Boyd's
sermon yesterday at the First Pres
byterian Church.
"Christ is everywhere," said Dr.
Boyd. "He is on the street. In 'your
office, on the streetcar, in our every
walk of life. Why do we say 'When
aw we theer It was when you prac
ticed deceit in that business transac
tion in your office. 'It was I who was
deceived,' says Christ.
"But when you gave the cup of
gladness to that sorrowing one, it was
I who drank of that cup and was made
glad." he says. Our Christ is a Christ
of service and ministry.
"He is the only Christ you ever will
know. The Chris ts of dogmas and art
and all the rest are pigmies. Our
Christ is everywhere."
N
"The church will fail If its bait is
vaudeville, motion pictures, socials or
entertainments.
"The Bible is the only bait to use
in eatching men for Christ," said VDr.
W O. Shank, pastor of the East Side
Baptist Church, in his sermon yester
day morning. His topic was "Bis- Fish
Are Caught in Deep Water." He said,
"Whenever the Bible is used It gets
results.
"The ehurch will fail when it at
tempts to use any other bait. Vaude
ville shows, moving pictures, socials
and church entertainments are poor
bait to catch men for Christ.
"The perpetuity of the ministry Is
assured since preaching the gospel is
indispensable.
"It is not new fields of labor that
ministers and Christian workers need
in order to succeed, but new methods
and a deeper spirit of devotion.
"Success in any phase of life does
not depend upon the kind of work to
be done, but upon the capabilities of
him wno tries to do it.
"If people will not come to church,
let the church go to the people. Re
ligion is not confined to church build
ings. "Let Christians make their religion
so beautiful, and genuine, that it will
attract others.
"The world estimates the value of
Christianity as It is seen in the Jives
of those who profess it.
"It Is not Jesus and Christianity
that Js discredited, but the type of re
ligion as seen in those who represent
the Christian church.
"If the chureh would fill its news.
let the members live up to the teach
ings of Jesus."

XV v ' v , -;
GEORGE W. WARJTB. OF CHICAGO.
ZAIDA BROWS CATES, O
mother of all virtues. Rev. J. M. Skin
ner, pastor of the Rose City Park
Presbyterian Church, preached an in
spiring sermon yesterday morning. His
subject was "Reverence, an Instru
ment of Knowledge." He declared
that this is an Irreverent age.
He said: "It Is a time when young
men are at the head, and youth does
not lend itself to reverence. It car.
ries the inquiring mind. Young men
would try their strength. As Colum
bus they would test the uncharted seas.
Young men seldom realize the cost at
which the present has come down to
us- out of the past. They do not
measure the difficulties lying in the
many schemes which they propose.
When they drop reverence they drop
the pilot that can safely guide them
through the dangerous waters.
"The man who would study life In
the large must be a punctilious scholar.
And the true scholar is always the
reverent rcholar. As some one has
said, the happy and prosperous chil
dren are thoso who had before all else
the education that comes by reverence.
This education is beyond all doubt the
highest, and deepest, and widest, and
the most perfect oi all the forms of
education ever given to man. A child
that has not been taught to rever
ence God. and all that represents God
to man, honor, honesty, justice, mercy,
truth, love, courage, self-surrender, is
sent into the world like a boat sent
out to eea without rudder, ballast, com
pass or captain.
"Men who have capacity for rever-
ence nave . capacity for sterling? man
hood. The reverent life is the sincere
life. And what is the meaning of sin
cerity, but that life holds something
for me to discover, and something for
me to transmit? That same power,
which bids me adore, bids me also rise.
What is the meaning of this persistent
instinct of worship? The true mean
ing is that something is to enter my
life through the door of worship. It
means that something is unfolding In
my life. Something is winning me for
ward and vjpward. It means that
greater discoveries are to be made,
but that they shall be made alone by
men of thought and quietness. If I
am reverent, then I with holy thank
fulness take up my burden, go onward
through the dark night, accept my fall
ani failure with the feeling that some
how I live in a world, the vaetness
of which I cannot measure, the
sublimity of which I cannot compre
hend. But, though unable to measure
it, I accept it to ponder over and be
lieve in. Reverence is that virtue
which turns always towards discovery.
"Reverence for truth nourishes
honesty. Reverence for purity nourishes
chastity. Reverence for love nourishes
kindnes3. Reverence for compassion
nourishes sympathy. Just in propor
tion as reverence is present are other
virtues present, and Just in proportion
as reverence is absent are other vir
tues absent.

NEWCHURCH IS STARTED
WEST SIDE ADVEXTISTS HOLD
THEIR FIRST SERVICE.
Meetlnics of Body "Which Outgrew
Quarters on East Side to Be Held
Temporarily at K. of P. Hall.
An Interesting ceremony took place
at the Knights of Pythias Hall. Kiev
enth and Alder streets, Saturday morn
Ing, the occasion being the formation
of a West Side church of the Seventh
Pay Adventists, whose church at East
Eleventh and Everett streets had be
come too congested. About a year ago
that church building was enlarged by
the construction of a balconv which
almost doubled the capacity, but, the
congregation naving again outgrown
the seating capacity, it was decided to
start a church on the West Side, and
temporarily its services will be held
in tne ivnlghts of Pythias Hall.
The president of the conference. El
der 11. W. Cottrell. selected th ree m.m
bers, H, H. Haynes. John H. Hartog
and Joseph C. Gibson, and after having
established this nucleus for the forma
tion of a church body, 80 more were
elected to membership, after which
others desirous of worshipping on the
West Side were invited to make it
anown ana they were elected by the
body previously chosen, making a start
of some 75 or 80 members.
Before this organization took place
the usual Sabbath school .was held at
10 A. M., at which 77, attended, includ
ing 17 children. At the services that
followed more than 100 attended.
Bible studies will be held every Sun
day night in the same hall at 7:45, as
well as on Saturday nights.
Th.e West Siders have chosen the
name of Seventh Pay Adventist Taber
nacle for their new church organiza
tion. SPECIAL RATES PROTESTED
San Francisco Kxcnrsions Discrimi
nate Against Northwest.
OLYMPIA, Wash.. Sept. 26. (Spe
cial.) Chairman C. A. Reynolds, of the
Washington Public Service Commission,
today directed the filing of an imme
diate complaint with the Interetata
Commerce Commission against railroad
excursion rates to the San Francisco
Exposition on the grounds that they
discriminate grossly against the Pa
cific Northwest.
"The fact ha Just been brought to I
my attention." said Mr. Reynolds, "that
a round-trip San Francisco ticket can
be purchased at Chicago by way of
New Orleans and Los Angeles for 117.50
less than the fare by way of Portland
and Seattle, although the Southern
route is 257 miles longer than the
Northern route.
"This, discrimination, 'which we
learned only accidentally, as interstate
tariffs are not filed with us. doubtless
explains why more .Eastern tourists
have not stopped In the Northwest
going to or from the Exposition."
Chairman Reynolds designated the
approval of the tariff by the Inter
state Commerce Commission as in
excusable, and. besides filing the pe
tition, promises to raise the subject
personally at the San Francisco meeting
of Public Service Commissioners next
month.

AD QUARTET AT MAJESTIC
"The "IVonderful Adventnre," Lead
on Film Bill, Has Wm. Farnum.
Four strong voices, perfectly blend
ed, filled the Majestic Theater yester
day when the Portland Ad Club Quar
tet made" its initial appearance. A. E.
Davidson. H. G. Whipp, Dr. Reeves
Emerson and Norman Hoose added an
other feather to their respective and
collective caps. All they had to do
was to sing, and they certainly did
that to the entire satisfaction of the
crowds who filled the theater.
William Farnum came in for his
share of the honors in his latest suc
cess, "The Wonderful Adventure." in
which he appears opposite himself
throughout tho play. He takes the
part of the surveyor from the West
who succeeded, and the contractor
from the East who failed, with an
assurance that is wonderful. It seems
strange to see a man looking Into his
own eyes and speaking to himself as
two different characters. Yet so com
plete is the illusion that it Is hard to
believe that one man is playing both
parts.- Miss Dorothy Green, as
"Majora," is captivating.

GRAIN WAREHOUSES FILLED
Idaho Crop Overflows Storage Facll
lties'and Farmers Hold On.
GENESEE, Idaho, Sept. 26 (Spe
cial.) All of the warehouses In Gene
see are full and overflowing with grain.
A number of the warehouse men are
starting to pile grain on outside plat
forms. This is the largest crop that
ever has been raised in this section.
It is difficult to find room for the grain
that is coming Into town every oay.
The quality of the grain is better
than it has been in many years. Very
little smut appeared, as in the past few
years. There was but one machine de
stroyed near Genesee this season. This
one was destroyed by fire, but the
cause is unknown. There will be 1,000,
000 bushels of grain stored In the ware
houses of Genesee this year.
There is very little selling. The farm
ersvare looking for an increase in the
wheat prices, and are holding on.

UNEMPLOYMENT IS TOPIC
Chamber Will Consider Jox5e Land
Resolution Today.
J. H. Joyce's resolution, calling for
the appointment of a committee to
work out definite plans for bringing
unemployed men onto the unused
lands of the State, will be the subject
of the entire discussion at the meeting
of the Members' Council of the Cham
ber of Commerce at noon today. This
resolution was presented by Mr. Joyce
last week and. owing to its importance,
it was decided to devote an entire meet
ing to its consideration.
Speakers, besides Mr. Joyce, will be
Q. L. Baker, C. W. Hodson and H. B.
Miller. F. J. Williams, of Hillsboro,
also will attend the meeting and tell
how he made a success of his Washing
ton county farm by establishing a can
nery on it.
"The solution of the problem of un
employment, in my belief, lies in get
ting cheap land, cheap money and
cheap labor, in combination," says Mr.
Joyce, "and I believe that if the Cham-
IDer takes up this matter and goes into
ii luurougmy, tne ultimate result will
be action by the federal Government to
apply this remedy to the conditions of
unemployment that arise."
