FROM the quietness of things social I
one would euepect the Lenten period
had arrived. The fact that a sreat
many are traveling and the. unprecedent
1 d death list of socially prominent Port-
landers account In a largo measure for
' the Inactivity. The death of Mr. Couch
; Flanders last week places one of the larg
est families temporarily In mourning, as
do the deaths of Mrs. Elijuh Corbett
'and Mrs. "W. H. Mason. The death, on
Friday, of Marion Fiske. a son of Major
Fiske and a nephew of Mrs. Holt C.
Wilson and Mrs. Howard Mather, also
came as a distinct shock.
For the coming week of paramount
Interest Is the wedding of Misw Amy
Heitshu and Dr. Edward Sowall, on
, (Thursday, and the Metzger-lleischner
. wedding on Wednesday.
Theatrically the week just past has
been one of the strongest of the winter
season. The Automobile Show this week
at the Armory Is an event of Interest.
The daguerreotype reproduced on this
page today of the distinguished Oregon
pioneer, John e. Carson, was taken In
( 1S60, 10 years after his arrival In Oregon,
i Mr. Carson went from New York in 1850,
; via the Isthmus of Panama, sailing from
i Panama to San Francisco on the steamer
I Oregon, which brought the news of the
admission of California as a state.
Seated on Mr. Carson's lap Is his daugh
ter, Luella Clay Carson, now president
of Mills College. The picture was taln
! soon after the death of her mother. Mr.
; Carson returned last week from Califor
nia, where he has been for some weeks,
having gone South for the installation of
Miss Carson In her new position. The
installation nervices gathered notable ed
ucators of the coast and representatives
from other universities and colleges of
the United States. A procession in which
Mrs. Mills was escorted by David Starr
Jordan, the president of Stanford Univer
sity, and Dr. Carson by Charles R.
Brown, president of the Mills College
board of trustees, wound along the
oak-shaded walks of the college to Lis
ser Hall, preceded by a company of
students in caps and- gowns, singinK
-Hall, Festival Day."
Dr. Carson was educated at St. Hel
en's Hall and .the University of Oregon.
one sarvea as preceptress of Tualatin
Academy and Pacific University, at
Forest Grove, professor in the Univer
sity of Oregon, and has a master's de
gree from that institution and from
Pacific University, and doctor of liter
ature and laws degrees from the North
ern institutions. Besides her Western
college experience, Dr. Carson attended
Summer sessions at Harvard. Cam
bridge. University of Chicago and other
institutions, and is thoroughly quali
fied for the position to which she has
been chosen. She is the author of sev
eral textbooks. Dr. Carson is a half
sister to Mrs. Robert Treat Piatt, Miss
Flizabeth Carson and John D. Carson.
Miss Carson was named for Henry Clayl
News of the death of Miss Ardel'la
Mills, of San Francisco, and well known
in Portland, where she has been a vis
itor on several occasions, will come as
a shock to many. She was a talented
musician, and as a philanthropist en
deared herself to her associates In an
unostentatious way that prevented her
true worth from becoming known in
some instances even to the benefici
aries. Her executive ability was one
til hep noteworthy characteristics.
When In Portland she was the guest of
Dr. and Mrs. A. E. Rockey and Mr. and
Mrs. R. R. Hoge. She returned only
recently from a trip to Europe In the
company of her mother, Mrs. W. H.
Mills, and her sister. Miss Elizabeth
Mills. She arrived home apparently in
excellent health, but was stricken soon
after her return with the malady from
which her death resulted. Miss Mills
and the late Miss Alice Sansbury were
cousins, and it is a sad coincidence that
these two splendid young women, im
bued with like characteristics, should
have been called by death within such
a short space of time.
Mrs. Rose Bloch Bauer, while visiting
in New York with Miss Emilie Frances
Bauer aid the Misses Flora and Marion
Bauer, has been much entertained. On
Sunday afternoon a week ago the three
