Portland Morning- Daily Once Contemplated. "Superb:" exclaimed Franklin K. liane, Secretary of the Interior, when he saw the vast sweep of the Colum bia from Crown Point yesterday morn ing, with the mist lifting: through sun shine to climb the palisades of rock. "What could I say of the Columbia River Highway that has not already been said?" he added, where Multno mah Kails tumbles in cascades of spray. "As a scenic highway it is un surpassed, that ia evident; and the en gineering of it is in keeping with the scenery." Vista Ilouae Explored. At Crown Point, in company with Samuel Lancaster, builder of the high way, and John B. Yeon, roadmaster, the Secretary explored Vista House, that bit of architectural artistry that stands like a watch tower high above the river. The base is of gray basalt, smoothly curving to the roadway. Sec retary Lane expressed his admiration for the "beautiful modeling and color ation." He turned to Mr. Lancaster. "You say this structure ia to cost $65,U0(i?" Mr. Lancaster replied that Roadmas ter Yeon, who is in charge of construc tion, would keep well within that esti mate. The Secretary pursed his Hps to just the suggestion of a whistle. "I can't do anything as good as this for 65,O0O," he admitted At 8:30 yesterday morning Secretary Lane, who confessed that his stay in Portland was lengthened by a deter mination to observe the highway, gave th committee "Good morning" at his private car, bundled into an overcoat and announced that he was ready.

The highway was traversed to Eagle Creek, with pauses at the various ecenic points. Secretary Lane fre quently expressed his admiration for the prospect, and at Shepperd's Dell paused for several mintues to view the classic nook that never has failed to bring tribute. Throughout the trip the Secretary was uncommunicative regarding affairs of state, and evinced a. desire to give himself thoroughly up to the enjoy ment of the outing. Only once did he rpeak of matters other . than those of the moment, and then when the talk turned to his favorite topic Alaska. Alaxkan Coal Coming;. "The railroad ia progressing finely," aid Secretary Lane, referring to the Government's project. "It will soon be one of the great scenic routes of Amer ica. Many tourists will come to this city and to Seattle, turning thence to the wonderland of Alaska. You'll haveJ no danger of fuel famine here, very soon, for we'll be getting out coal next year. We already have opened some very good mines, and the quality of the output is equal to the Pocahontas grade." Secretary Lane smiled in recollec tion of the time he came near to enter ing the Portland newspaper field. "I once seriously contemplated start ing a morning daily in Portland," he recalled. "That was in 188S, I believe, but I spared The Oregonian from rivalry and went on to Tacoma." ioan Committee Entertaina.

Davis. 30, a negro boot black, is lying dead at the morgue with two bullet wounds in the body, and Huie Tong, 54, a Chinese, is at St. Vincent's Hospital with his scalp badly lacerated as the result of an at tempted burglary of his room at 63 North Fourth street by Davis at 5:30 yesterday morning. With a small hammer covered with cloth, Davis gained entrance to Tong's room while the latter was sleeping and began beating the aged Chinese over the head with the hammer. With the covers thrown over his head, Tong grabbed his gun from beneath the pil low and fired two shots through the blankets, both of them taking effect. After he had slain the negro, Tong crawled to another room for assistance. Mortorcycle Patrolmen Morris and Tully arrived a few minutes later and found Davis dead on the floor, while Tong was lying on the bed In a dazed condition. Detectives Goltz and Howell, who made an investigation, believe that Davis had been at Tong's room before for opium and learned that the Chinese had $400 hidden there. Davis had been in Portland for about six months, coming here from Salt Lake, where he worked as a bootblack. Little is known of him among the lo cal negro population. Acting Coroner Smith took charge of the body and is holding it pending efforts to get into communication with relatives. At St- Vincent's Hospital it was re ported that Tong's condition Is not serious. CHURCH GOES TO HELP Patriotism Subject of Addresses at Chehalis Convention. CHEHALIS, Wash., Oct. 11. .Spe cial.)
