24 THE SUNDAY OREGONIAN, PORTLAND, JUNE S, 1902. LAST DAY OF T. P. A Visitors Take a Trip to As toria and the Beach. many) wade in the pacific Hoapltnlltr of the City by the Be Is Jtfnch Enjoyed Many KnigliU J " o the Grip Are "JXozno J." trurd Bound. " ' .An excursion to Astoria and Clatoop Beach yesterday concluded the exercises of the National T. P A. Convention, and a majority of the vlFttlnn delegates hae started on their homeward Jour uej. A special train otcr the Astoria & Columbia Rlier Railroad tvas placed at the disposal of the excursionists, manj of whom had never Razed upon the placid waters of the Pacific, and seme had neer seen the expanse of any ocean. Starting from the Union Depot at 7:30 o'clock, the T. P. A- train which consist ed of seven coachca and one commissary car skirted In and out among the wooded foothills of Columbia County, until Goble was reached, and then hugged the edge of the mighty river until the arrival at Astoria at 10:30 o'clock. Tho ride down the river was a beautiful one the silvery expanse of water, the wooded glens and towering sentinels of snow beyond pictur ing a revelation of beautj to those who came 'from the Middle West and South. The day was perfect, and a cool breeze fanned the happy excursionists as the swiftly moving train bore them toward their destination. At Astoria a delegation of citizens boarded the train, which proceeded at once to the big salmon cannery of the Sanborn-Cutting Company, where an hour was spent in watching the Mongolian paakers prepare the fish for the canning process, which was Interesting to thoso who had never witnessed the operation. At 21:30 the exodus from the cannery began, and, headed by the Eagles and Marine Band, the guests and citizens of Astoria marched t6 tho big hall of the regatta committee, where a sumptuous dinner was served. Dinner nt Astoria. The entertainment committee, consisting of "V. L. Robb, H. D. Thing, C. W. Ful ton, G. C. Fulton. William Madison, a V. Brown. E. W. Talent, F. J. Carney, F. X. Parker, W. F. ChHtter, Herman Prael end Joe Suprenant, had made elaborate plans for the comfort and pleasure of the visitors, and the royal spread testi fied to the warm hospitality and genuine public spirit of tho Astorians. Among the viands were fishes of all kinds, each guest being presented with a small tin of Astoria's famous salmon. The dining hall was gaily adorned with Scotch .broom, and the table5 served by pretty girls, who were all presented with T. P. A. badges as eouvenirs. Several short speeches were made, after which three lusty ctieers were given for the ladles of Astoria. Visit to Seaside. At 1 o'clock the Journey -to Seaside commenced, the train reaching that place three-quarters of an hour later. The cars were eoon emptied, tho occupants scatter ing themselves across 'the sandy beach. Some who had never seep tho ocean breakers before must have mistaken them for babbling brooks, for they ventured out too faT and were lashed by the foam of the heavy breakers as they rushed in across the sands. A lull hour was spent at the water's edge, after -which the train was boarded, and the homeward journey begun. Sev eral Astorians had gone to Seaside withi the partjr, and when the last farewells were said' at the Astoria depot, the crowd began to sing and cheer, concluding with a "tiger" for their generous hosts. One of the amusing features of tho Astoria reception was the T. P. A. arch, over which was swung a portrait of Al Smith, the popular president of the Oregon and Washington division. Smith's hair, put ting it mildly, is auburn, but his T. P. A. brothers of Astoria evidently believe In the theory of limits, for the head of the portrait was bedecked in scarlet, while far above were piled a row of balls, en titled "high balls." Tho whole thing was a huge Joke on the popular president, who was roundly jollied by his comrades. At 3:50 P. M. the train started for this city, making the run In exactly three houis. The "commissary" department was visited freely during the homeward Journey, and sandwiches and other viands were served to tho ladles in the coaches. Tho ride up the river was delightful, and with sighs of regret the knights of the grip left the train for their hotels and packed their belongings, preparatory to their departure Xrom the city. Delegates Leave for Home. Most of the T. P. A. delegates left last evening for their homes, going by way of San Francisco. Some, who were not able to take the California trip, went by the O. R. & N., and others by the-North-ern Pacific Only a few of them remained In the city over Sunday, as a majority were in a hurry to get back to their homes. Never before have so many men and women left Portland singing its praises as did the members of the great T. P. A. convention of 1902. NEW PRESIDENT OF THE T. P. A. HOWARD "W. PEAK, OF FORT WORTH, TEXAS. TALKED ABOUT CRIME. Unitarian "Women's Alliance Holds Its Closing Session. Wednesday afternoon, at the Unitarian Chapel, were held the closing literary ex ercises for tho Unitarian Women's Alli ance, before tho Summer vacation. At these monthly meetings discussions along the line of philanthropic work by mem bers and friends has been the custom. At Wednesday's meeting the programme was devoted to the subject of crime, and Judge Alfred Sears, the first speaker, treated upon "Juvenile Crime," briefly speaking of tho relation of Juvenile crime to that of the adult. He said: "Crime always has been, is. and always will exist." Judge Sears told of a society which was first started in Italy about 100 years since, with its purpose to treat Fcientiflcally the various classes of crim inals, relative to reform. The methods of this society have been taken up in France, England and some of our own states, with good results. Judge Sears said crime could be divided into two classes occasional and habitual. With the occasional class is the best field for reform, while the habitual criminal, with but very few exceptions, would ever re main such. Crime is Increasing all over the earth. Reformatory schools and re formatory methods are doing a -vast amount of good. With the habitual crim inal, reform Is almost impossible, while the juveniles are nearly always suscept ible to good influence, and may nearly always be saved, if taken young enough. Judge Scars touched briefly upon the advance made in Oregon laws; as to thelr treatment of criminal offenses. Twenty three years ago, when he first camo to the state, there was not a law upon the statute books relating to children. The child ws then treated for its offense ex aotly like the worst criminal; now the child can be placed in some reformatory, i even at the age of 20 years the bar Is placed in the reform school, where he is taught various trades and industries. T. N. Strong was next introduced, and spoke of ""Crime That Comes Through Pauperism." He spoke relative to the social conditions surrounding the child criminal, saying hunger was seldom the motive for any sort of crime. Ho gave instances and statistics as proof. With proper economic, political and social con ditions, Mr. Strong thought much could be done to aid a better condition of mor--allty. Dr. George C. Cressey said a word for the reform school as carried on In the East, when some ono suggested that the word reform might be called something else, lest its dread lose much of its good. Such schools were divided into four or five classes. Inmates of the first class are permitted great privileges, while oth ers are more strict, according to their class. Mrs. Trumble read a highly Instructive paper on "Education of the Child' ap proving the tendency of the present to ward prevention, rather than punishment. Her paper was replete with good thoughts and touching comparisons. Mrs. Trum ble spoke of the Industrial and manual training schodls as very helpful and. In deed, necessary. Dr. Thompson told of a recent person al interview with Miss Faith Stewart and the reformatory work she is doing hero in Portland. The exercises were announced by Mrs. Cressey; Miss Helen Goss and Miss Hen rietta Eliot sang'in a very pleasing man ner, "Oh! That We Two Were Maying." responding cheerfully to a hearty en core, Mrs. Wilbur accompanying on the piano. At tho business session preceding the literary programme final arrangements were made for a supper and programme to be conducted next Wednesday evening in the chapel. Tho evening is styled, "Gentlemen's Evening," with tho object of bringing" the men of the congregation together as well as the women of tho church. t ' BABY LEFT TO ITS FATE. Parents Abandon Him, and He Is Sent to Poor Farm. A 3-months-old baby boy, abandoned by its parents, was found on the steps of tho Baptist Church on the Base Line road, yesterday morning, at 7:30 o'clock, by Herbert Graves. Tho child is dark-haired and looks as If it might be partly of Jap anese or Chinese origin. It was neatly dressed, and close beside it was a bottle of milk. Mr-Graves carried the baby to the home of his sister near by, and sub sequently the Baby Home was communi cated with by telephone; but the officers of that Institution refused to receive the child unless it was arranged that the county authorities would furnish a nurse to take charge of It. This could not be done. The Baby Home, it was explained, does not take in children until they havo passed the stage of the nursing bottle. In the afternoon the baby was brought to the Courthouse to be sent to the Poor Farm. The Poor Farm, wagon was sent for, and Miss Shepherd, a nurse, came in with the wagon and took charge of the little unfortunate. The Poor Farm from time to time re ceives quite a number of such cases and contains a ward which has room to ac commodate 12 babies. At tho present time at the Poor Farm, besides the new ar rival, there Is an Infant 10 days old, one 6 weeks of age, one 2 years old, and two boys a little older. A child was recently adopted from the Poor Farm. GOOD SPORT AT SALEM. Order of Railway Conductors Will Give Excursion Today.
