Son of Noted Soldier, Visitor in Portland, Recalls Ad- dress and Epigram. NATIONAL DEFENSE URGED Rev. Father Thomas Erring Sherman Quotes Bible as Proof That Strong Man Needs Armament to Guard His Wealth. History is vindicated, after all. for General William T. Sherman, Civil War leader and hero, really did soy "War is hell." The famous epigram has been quoted all over the world and attributed to General Sherman, but of late year some historians have denied that Gen eral Sherman ever hald "war is hell." In the course of an interview yester day on preparedness for National de fense. Rev. Father Thomas Ewlng Sherman, of St. Louis, eldest son of General Sherman, said his father made the utterance In a public address, and related the circumstances. "I do not remember the exact year, said Father Sherman, "but it was in the early '80s. and my father was ad dressing: the graduating class of cadets at a military school in Michigan. In . the course of his address he told them they had learned the duties of a sol dier and would be ready if their conn try ever needed them. Then he said that he knew what war was, and hoped they never would be called to war. adding. "War is hell.' "There can be no doubt that he said It. When the definition was first at tributed to him, X once denied it, but soon afterward received a letter from a man who had heard the address and who gave me the exact language my father used." Father SherTnan looks strikingly like the pictures of his father. He has the same keen blue eyes, the same beard, and he wears a black slouch hat much of the same style. He arrived in Port land Friday and has been staying at Archbishop Christie's residence. Though he had a hatred for war that he does not hesitate to express. Father Sherman is a firm believer in the necessity of adequate prepared ness for National defense. "No matter what we may think as Christian ministers," he said, "we must see and admit that the world Is ruled by force. Both groups of warring na tions in the present world war have overleaped all laws without regard to the rights of others. We, in the United States, haven't been in a position to enforce laws of nations because we are not in a position to back up our demands. "What is the situation in this coun try? Why, here we are, massing up wealth and piling up golds without thought of defending ourselves. That is only a temptation to another nation to come and take away our wealth. Nations should be kept from tempta tion just as-individuals should be kept from it. "Christ himself said that the strong man when he is fully armed keeps his court, but when the stronger man cometh he taketh it away. The indi vidual man is not strong unless he is armed to keep his cottage from the wolf and the savage, and nations are governed by the Bame rules as indi viduals.

Those who have tried a simple spurmax face lotion find it much better, as it removes skin dis- coloratlons, such as freckles and tan. and makes the skin smooth, white and velvety. This lotion is made by dlssolv ing four ounces of spurmax in one- half pint hot water, then adding two teaspoonfuls glycerin. This complexion beautlfler does not rub off or show like powder, and gives a more refined ap pearance. It removes both Bhininess and sallowness, rapidly giving the skin a permanent healthy, youthful appear ance. An especially fin shampoo for this weather can be had at trifling expense by dissolving a teaspoonful of can throx in a cup of hot water. Pour slow ly on scalp and massage briskly. This creates a soothing, cooling lather that dissolves and removes all dandruff, excess oil and dirt. Rinsing leaves the scalp spotlessly clean, soft and pliant. while the hair takes on a glossy rich ness of natural color, also a flufflness which makes it seem very much heavier than it is. After a canthrox shampoo arranging the hair is a pleasure. reunion and rally in addition to the discussion of topics as scheduled on a formal programme. Pennants will be given as rewards for merit shown in the parade which will be a feature of the gathering. GIRL'S FRIEND TESTIFIES AXFRETJ IJT D BLOOM SAYS HE WAS ENGAGED TO ANNA ANDERSON. iblllty for Coadltioa Admitted, at Him IaformatloB Is Guarded by Prtitcntion. Full responsibility was taken by Al fred Lindbloom. a logger, for the con ditlon of Anna Anderson, the -irl who died in the office of Dr. A. A. Ausplund last Friday, in a statement which Lind bloom made yesterday at the District Attorney's office. Lindbloom said that ne was engaged to marry her. He declared tnat she had spoken of hav ing such an operation as that which, according to the verdict of the Coro ner's Jury, caused her death performed oeiore tney became nusband and- wife. The District Attorney's office would not grve out a full summary of Lind bloom's statement for the reason, it was said, that he had divulged infor matlon which might be so handled as to become valuable evidence against Dr. Ausplund, who has been held for grand Jury action on a manslaughter cnarge. Li abloom, who was brought in from Buxton, Or., by the Rev. J. Richard Olson, pastor of the church of which relatives of the dead girl are mem bers, readily admitted having received letters from the girl, but said that he had destroyed them as fast- as read for fear that they might become public property in the narrow confines of a logging camp bunkhouae. What he stated from memory as to the contents of any such letters Special Investigator ueren, or tne District Attorney s office, would not reveal. Dr. A. A. Ausplund, who appeared in Municipal Court yesterday morning charged' with manslaughter, waived preliminary examination, and the case will now go over to the grand Jury.
