THE SUNDAY' OKEGOXIAX; PORTLAND, OCTOBEK 21, 1906. 1 NEW HEAD W.C.T.U. Countess of Carlisle, Emanci pator of Barmaids. MRS. STEVENS DECLINES .World's Union Elects Another Wife of British Xoblcman Little field Defends Prohibition taw of Maine. BO3T0X, Mass., Oct. 20. (Special.) The Countess of Carlisle, president of the British TV. C. T. V., was today elected world's president of the association at the closing day's session in Tremont Tem ple. The Countess received 2S4 votes out of the 377 votes cast. She succeeds Lady Henry Somerset, fne Countess is at her home In England, but is represented at the eonventioo by her husband, the Earl of Carlisle, and her daughter, Lady Doro thy Howard. Mrs. Lillian M. N. Stevens, of Portland, Me., who Is National president of the W. C T. U. of the United States, was the leading candidate for world's president, but declined the honor, insisting that some . one from abroad should be elected. The Countess o Carlisle, who is very wealthy, has for years directed a crusade in Kngland against the custom of em ploying barmaids. One after another, the six women to whom the "scattering" vote had gone - arose with a motion to "make it unanimous." Receiving 294 out of 309 votes, Mrs. Stevens . was then re-elected vice-president. Mrs. Mary E. Anderson, of Dan ville, 111., was re-elected world's treas urer, and both world's secretaries were re-elected: Miss Agnes E. Stack, of Der byshire, England, and Miss A. C. Gordon, of Evanston, 111. Congressman Littleficld, of Maine, ad dressed the convention in the morning, dellning prohibition. Tonight there were one-minute addresses by representatives of each federation in the World's W. C. T. U. Tomorrow church programmes of various interest will attract the visitors, while Monday and Tuesday invite the tourists with programmes of social activ ity.. The real work of the convention, however, has been done already. GIVE BUCK" THE MONEY I'KIOAVS DEPOSITS WERE PLACED IX ENVELOPES. Officials of (he Etna Bank, at Butte, Were Aware of Approach- , Ing Crisis. BUTTE, Mont., Oct. -IV A warrant for the arrest of K. K. Garside. cashier of the Etna Bank, which closed its doors yesterday under orders of the acting Con troller of the Currency, was issued this afternoon on the instance of Mrs. J. A. Alley, who had deposited 10 in 'the de funct Institution Just before it closed. The v.arrant was not served, however, as Mrs. Alley, with all others who had deposited n.oney with the Etna yesterday, were re funded their money. Cashier Garside showed to the officers that the deposits of yesterday had not been entered on the books of the bank, but were placed In envelopes and depos ited in the vaults, as though they were aware of the straitened condition of the bank, and official orders closing the Butte Institution had not yet been received from Washington. Rather than precipi. tate a run, and excite the people, it was decided by Cashier Oarside to accept de posits and lay them aside for the de positors, as was done. The closing of the Etna hardly caused a DAY IN OAK-STREET CIRCLES Well-Known Author Comes to Cameron (in Search of Local Color) Visit From Noted Educators Oriental Snobbishness Arouses Resentment. DOES authorship pay? That subtle question was the sub ject of an Intellectual discussion at the Cameron yesterday forenoon between the host and Mr. Frank IJoyd. Mr. Lloyd is a well-known literary man. who Is here from Tacoma to spend the Winter at the Cameron. There are few writers so well qualified to give an -opinion on the subject under discussion as Mr. Lloyd. He is, perhaps, the best paid of all our authors. At least he receives a higher rate per word than any other living, writer. Kipling is r& puted to have received as high as Jl per word for his writings, and Conan Doyle is known to have gone ahead of that mark with his second Sherlock Holmes series. But Mr. Lloyd would disdain such trilling sums for the products of his virile and prolific pen. His established rate is $10 per word, and for some choice work he often receives double that amount. His recent sonnet entitled "Pay Fifty to Bearer" brought J10 per word, or a total of $0 for the story. It was purchased by a well-known local capitalist. The pay ing teller of a prominent bank, whose Judgment on sonnets of this sort is re garded as pertect, - pronounced it one of the purest bits of fic tion he had ever pe rused. The teller was confident that, with a different title, such as "Pay a Hundred to Bearer." the young author could have secured double the amount for his sonnet. Mr. Lloyd finally agreed with the host that authorship does not pav except for leading lights like himself. Mme. Cassie Chadwick, Mons. Stensland. of Chicago, and a few other fiction writers of the same class. It is understood that the young author's determination to spend the Winter at the Cameron portends a valuable addition to literature in the form of a novel dealing with high society. There are few places where he could study that intricate subject to better advantaged unless in the effete zoological gardens of New York or San Francisco. Among the best known of Mr. Lloyd's works are: "Wild Animals I Have Eat en," "In the Bishop's Pocketbook," "When Rockplle Was King," "Life and Memoirs of Joe Day" (a work which the critics say leaves Sherlock Holmes at the post), "Country Homes of Infamous Americans." "Ive Sonnets to a Paying Teller," "Autobiography of a Forger," . and many others.

IPS' ripple of excitement in the city, business conditions remaining as usual. Mysterious circumstances are connected with the failure. Up to a few month ago. the names of well-known citizens or Butte appeared in the bank advertise ments as directors. Today Garside de clares he does not know who are the di tectors, nor who hired him. He says he came here six weeks ago from Portland, Or., on a telegram. Garside formerly was a prominent banker In New Hampshire. WIXTj BE . LAUNCHED TODAY New Steam Schooner Hornet to Leave the Ways. . ABERDEEN, Wash., Oct. 20. (Spe cial.) The steam schooner Hornet will be launched from the Lindstrom yards Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock. The Hornet is owned by Fred Linderman, of San Francisco, who also owns the new steam schooners Bee and Wasp. The Hornet will cost, completed, $85,300. She will be christened by Mrs. Krog. wife of the man who will command the vessel. .

The schooner Transit, which was damaged coming over the bar a few days ago, was placed in drydock today. Coal Bunkers to Be Moved. PEXDtETON, Or., Oct. 20. (Special!) By the starting of work yesterday on the new coal bunkers at Bingham Springs Station, the first steps were taken in the movement for better depot facilities for Pendleton. As soon as the bunkers are completed, the old ones here will be torn down to make room for the passenger de pot, which will be moved 200 feet west ward, remodeled and enlarged so as bet ter to serve the traveling public. The local commercial association re cently petitioned the O. R. & N. Co. for the above change, which the company had already planned to make. WOMAN'S WIT SAVES HER Wealthy Mrs. Chase Eludes High wayman and Causes Capture. SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 20. (Special.) The woman wit of Mrs. Howard Blan chard Chase, well known in this city as a leader In the most exclusive social set, has enable'd her to triumph over a high wayman who attempted to hold her up. As a result of his attempt to rob the wealthy woman, the thug is now locked up in the Yountville jail. - Mrs. Chase, who .has a beautiful Sum mer home near Yountville, Napa County, was driving there from the little town when the highwayman halted her. She was alone at the time, and the sight of a masked desperado pointing a double-barreled shotgun in her face and calling on her to stop her horse naturally startled her. But she did not lose her presence of mind, and when the sudden apparition throw her horse into a fright and started him off in a wild stampede down the road, she made no attempt to curb him, and was soon safely beyond the range of the road agent's gun. Arrived at her country seat, Mrs. Chase lost no time in sending word by telephone to the Yountville Constable that a high wayman was on the road. A posse was organized, and, aided by Mrs. Chase's ex cellent description of the place where she met the mun, within an hour -or so had taken him into custody. Black Hundred Attacks Stolypin. -STV PETERSBURG, Oct. 20. The strained relations between Premier Stoly pin and the Reactionary league is evi denced by the publication of the first at tack directly upon the Premier. The Ban ner, the Black Hundred organ, publishes revelations concerning the negotiations entered into a month ago when the Pre mier gave certain assurances to a big delegation from at least 100 branches of the Black Hundred organizations. The Banner charges the Premier with having broken faith. Plan of Education Complete. ST. PETERSBURG, Oct- . 20. The Ministry of Education has finished the draft of a project for universal educa tion, involving an expenditure of J103, 000,000 yearly. Have you seen Waverly Heights? ONE of the pleasant little gather ings of the week wa3 that at the Cameron the past week, when Messrs. George Baker, Calvin Heilig and Mil ton Seaman, theatrical gentlemen and educators, were received by the host in ihe princely reception hall. Messrs. Baker, Heilig and Seaman are not recognized as Oak-street so ciety people, nor are they admitted to the more exclusive sets, Yet they have gained limited recognition through their splendid educational work; in fact it was their financial aid in the commendable work of educating William goats that secured them their invitation to the Cameron, the host asserting that they had posted mere bills than any other three animal educators in the North west. Mr. Cameron took occasion, during the reception, to set forth his ideas regarding the proper scope of this good work and his words were care-J fully heeded by the three gentlemen who are always glad to receive sug gestions. It is understood to be their ambition to -post their bills so thor oughly as to enable the crafty stu dents to pass civil service examina tions for the police departments. BITTER resentment of official ostra cism has been manifested by a number of municipal repreBentatives owing to the snobbish practice of Ori ental society people in excluding them from fashionable fan-tan socials and wimbling festivals. This social bitter ness has been manifesting itself for many months and now officialdom de clares the end must come. Rep- Sk r resent atives of the p -faL S local srovernment :s3T5' feel that their po- sitions entitle them r to full recognition. They point with in dignation to the fact that exclusive Orientals not only fail to extend Invi tations to such eminent Cameron leaders as Captain Pat Bruin, M. P. (member police force-, but actually assemble behind locked doors and maintain the closest surveillance over guests as they come and go and this to prevent intrusion from officialdom. The base inference that they would break in on a fan-tan affair uninvited has aroused the fullest degree of re sentment from all officias and in re taliation an official manifesto has been issued, eliminating strong doors and heavy locks from all Oriental reception places. It iff by this master stroke of diplomacy that the officials expect to gain entree to the most- exclusive eir cles and to the very best Chinese homes. SAVED SEATTLE LONG AGO HEROIC DEED OF PIOXEEK WOMAN RECALLED BY DEATH. Mrs. Maynard - Traveled With 'Friendly Indians' at Night to Warn Gunboat Decatur. SEATTLE, Wash., Oct. 20. (Special.) Mrs. Catharine Troutmari Maynard, a res ident of Seattle since 1S53, and widow of the man who made the original plat of the city of Seattle, died tonight of old age and paralysis. She was 91 years of age. Mrs. Maynard's Insistence in leaving her. home ,in Tuesday during a. heavy rainstorm probably precipitated the breakdown that led to her death today. Mrs. Maynard was a Kentuckian. She married-Israel Boshears, a Mississippi River pilot, in 1832. and the couple 17 years later started overland toward Ore. gon. Boshears died of cholera near For Kearney and his widow called upon Dr. Avis Maynard to aid her in making lier way to the Coast. They reached The Dalles in September 1830, and later in the same year came to Olympia, where the two married. Late In 1850 Dr.- and Mrs.- Maynard made a trip from Olympia to the site of Seat tle, up the Duwamish River to the Black River, and then to Lake Washington. Mrs. Maynard was the first white woman to see that body of water. It was under Mrs. Maynard's directions that Princess Angeline. daughter of Chief Seattle, learned the duties of a house wife and subsequently became a washer woman. .. . , . Dr. Maynard was Indian Agent at Port Madison when the native outbreak oc curred in the '50's and it was Mrs. May nard who, in a boat manned .by Indians and accompanied by Sallie, the daughter of Chief Kitsap, carried a warning of the threatened attack on the settlement at Seattle to the gunboat Decatur.' Their canoe was blown ashore at West Point and Mrs. Maynard lay in the bottom, cov ered with matting, while her Indian com panions convinced the hostiles that they had clams in the boat. Mrs. Maynard and her party got word to the Decatur and then put back to Port Madison in a storm. The entire trip was made at night, so that the reservation Indians might not know of the party's absence. Later Chief Leschl and other hostiles tried to kill Dr. Maynard and his wife, but friendly Indians concealed them. In 1873 Dr. Maynard died and a few years later Mrs. Maynard went to Eastern Washington for her health. She return ed 10 years ago and has lived here'quietly since. A reading room she formed in pioneer days has since developed into the M. C. A. Mrs. Maynard was the oldest pioneer living in this part of the state. She left no relatives . here. MANGLED BY AN ENGINE. J. H. Donaldson, of Hillsboro, Was Deaf and Did Not Hear Warnings. HILLSBORO; Or., Oct. 20. (Special.) James H. Donaldson, aged about 60 years, was- run over by a Pacific Railway & Navigation Company engine In North Hillsboro this evening about . 6:10. Engi neer Charles FoIIett was at the throttle, and the engine was returning from taking wood. The engine was backing up and .was not running over 10 miles an hour. Donaldson was badly mangled, but his face was untouched. The old gentleman was very deaf, and although the bell was ringing, evidently did not see the loco motive until it was within 20 feet of him. He was pushing a wheelbarrow In front of him and crossing the track at right angles. . Upon seeing him the engineer did ail in his power to stop the engine. Coroner E. C. Brown called a jury, which acquitted the engineer of any blame, and found that the accident was unavoidable. Donaldson left a widow and . two! children, one of whom, the youngest, is at home. The other is Mrs. John Beauchamp, of Lyle, Wash. This is the first . fatal accident that has oc curred on the Pacific Railway & Navi gation Company's line. - . Sale of Liquor to Indians. NORTH YAKIMA, Wash., Oct. 20. (Special.) Deputy United Slates Mar shal .Goodwin, of Spokane, came here from-Toppenish reservation today and made the statement that prosecutions would be made against a number "of men for selling liquor on the reserva tion and for gambling there. He is also making an investigation as to whether the saloons are open oh Sun day here, with a "view of bringing suit through the Federal Courts against them. The object of the prosecutions is to lessen the sale of liquor to the Indians; - Similar to Coos County Case. PENDLETON, Or.. Oct. 20. (Special.) The Freewater saloon case, which in volves " the same principles "as the Coos County case passed upon yesterday by Judge Burnett, was argued before Judge Smith at Baker City this afternoon. The case was transferred to Baker County, because Judge Bean, of this circuit dis trict, had once before passed upon the same question. District Attorney -helps, for the prosecution, and Attorney J. P. Winter, went over from this city this morning. -Will Operate During Winter. LA GRANDE." Or.', Oct. 20. (Special.) The Grand Ronde Electric Company has sent a large force of men to cover over its water ditch above the Cove power house. There is a stretch of about two miles which is to be covered so as to ex clude the accumulation of snow and Ice from the- water course. In this way the company expects to be able to secure a great deal of power during the Winter season, which would not be available with the flow of water obstructed. Peter Larson. OREGON CITT. Or., Oct. 20. (Special.) Peter . Larson, aged 67 years, a native of Sweden, and for 40 years a resident of Clackamas County, died this morning at his home at Stafford.
