13 GIPSY SMITH AND 8000 MEN MARCH THROUGH SAN FRANCISCO STREETS Exporter Dram Bit Crowds to Meeting! Lut Sunday for Tirst Time Army of 27,000 Win Be Mobilized Next Summer. It Is Planned, at Klamath Tails, Oregon. The Last Cal. tow TIIE SUNDAY OREGONTAN. PORTLAND. JANUARY 21, 1912. HComeTwn SA.V FRANCISCO. Jan. SO. Sps clal.) Gypy Smith came Into his own In an Francisco last Sunday. For the first time since the noted Eng llah evangelist has been conducting- his meetings In Pan Franrlsco. there has been shown the needed enthusiasm. In the afternoon the Gypsy led a proces slnn of (000 men. nearly every man carrying a Bible In bis hand, eight Inns; blocks, fie adlreeaed meeting of women at the West Side Christian C.iufch Immediately after the ending of the procession and then drove quickly to the Pavilion Rink where, for the first time since he has been In this elty. he found the great building packed with humanity. Marchers Carry Bible. The great parade an-anged by the -angelical churches of San Francisco. Oakland. Alameda and Berkeley started from Union Square at exactly I o'clock. At Its head were three mounted police men and following them was a band. The procession proper was beaded by Henry J. McCoy, general secretary of the T. iL C. A., who acted as grand marshal. Beside him walked Gypsy Smith and following came a score of clergymen and the thousands of earnest-faced men bearing Bibles. From Union Square, the procession passed down Stockton to Market street. It proceeded np Market street t '-. en Gats avenue and thence to the Pa vilion on Sutter street. All aJong the route, whcre.er bj.'J . . .- cgnlsed, he was applauded and when ever bs was applauded he wared his hand In Invitation to those who clapped r cheered to Join the procession. Many hundreds did so along the route, possibly as many as 1000. For the entire distance the sidewalks were filled with Interested spectators. These gave the procession quiet and re spectful attention and only one or twice along the route did any remarks of a slurring nature reach those who followed the evangelist. Klaaaath to Arssy. Twenty-seven thousand soldiers, the largest army ever concentrated by the United States Government in time of peace. Is to be assembled during the Summer months In maneuvers In the vicinity of Klamath Falls. Or, near the California state line. At the great en campment will be all of the mobile troops of the Regular Array stationed on the Pacific Slope and numbering 7000 men and the organised militia of the Pacific Slope states California. Oregon. Washington. Utah, Colorado and Arlaona comprising a nnlted force of 11.800 men. Cavalry. Infantry, sig nal corps and hospital corps will bo at the front. News of the contemplated moblllsa tlon of troops, which will be much more extensive than that' made at San Antonio last Summer, came ont thl week In Army circles. It became known that Brigadier-General Daniel Brush. commanding the department of this state, has reported on the Klamath field. Strength to Be Shewsu What purpose the Government has for the mobilisation of such a large body of troops, the local Army officers are not disposed to say, beyond ex plaining the value of army maneuvers on a grand scale, but It has been known for soma time put that the War De partment has been desirous of making a show of armed force on the Paclflo Coast, similar to that which was mads last Summer along the Mexican border. Numerically the assembled troops In the field will constitute an Army divi sion and will be under the command of Major-General Arthur Murray. For the purpose of mlmlo warfare the troops will be divided Into a "red" and "blue Army, each commanded by a Brigadier General. The maneuvers are contingent upon Congress passing an appropriation of 11. ISO. 000 needed to carry out the field work for the entire American Army In the United States and the state guards. Ia hi of Commercial Mlad. There can be no doubt that Ishl. the Deer Creek Indian. Is civilised, highly civilised. He has developed the com mercial Instinct until he has torn down all of the false Idols of his people and established In their stead as a thing i of worship, the standard of currency. J He has set a price on what he has to offer the public and he demands his price. Those who are associated in the study of Ishl as the connecting link be tween what we are and what we used to be, were astonished yesterday when , the aborigine refused to go on and ; do his turn" before the Sunday crowds j at the museum of anthropology at the , Affiliated Colleges until he had been , paid In advance for the entertainment. He seems to know that be Is the star attraction and he asks compensation accordingly. To Juan Dolores, of Arlxona, the Indian assistant of Pro fessor A. K. Kroeber. Ishl explains that he wants money to purchsse food and clothes and pretty things. He hag not learned that money has other uses and his keepers are apprehensive about re sults when he finds that be can buy firewater. Chinese Celebrate Kew Year. Huge lanterns glowed In the streets of the Chinese quarter last Sunday night. Innumerable Incense sticks lazily sent forth aromatic fumes at . the shrines of several thousand ancestors In the family Josshouses and the mer chants and citizens of ths celestial quarter relaxed in preparation for a delayed one-day celebration to mark the arrival of January 1, ltl2 the first year In the new calendar adopted by the republican government. When the edict went forth from Nan king, the capital of the new govern ment, decreeing the abolition of the old Chinese system of reckoning time, the Chinese world had properly celebrated the new year several days before. The adoption of the Julian calendar waa effected too late to reach all Chinese peoples throughout the world end to remedy ths defect, an order was Issued designating January IS as the day on which all modern Chinese shall cele brate the arrival of A. D. 1912. This decision will In no way affect or interfere with the Immemorial ob servance of the 10 days' fete thst has been known to Caucasians as the Chi oese new year. The date for the old style celebration Is February 17. Two weeks ago we announced and inaugurated our 24th Semi-Annual Clearance Sale. All announcements of Eilers Music House heretofore have been eagerly responded to by piano buyers, and this was no excep tion. Prices on high-grade pianos and player pianos were made lower than ever before. The consequence has been that never before in the history of this big music house have so many instruments been disposed of in so short a time, and the many excellent bargains still remaining will be positively sold tomorrow the last day of this noteworthy sale. This announcement is fair warning that after Monday the opportunity now before piano buyers will be gone. Space will not permit or is it necessary to describe the remaining instru ments; sufficient to say that at the low prices and easy terms on standard instruments, both new and used, the remaining stock will be soon picked up by shrewd buyers. So come tomorrow, and come as early as possible, as the opportunity may not come soon again that makes it possible for even the humblest home in Portland to possess an excellent piano. Remember, all pianos are in good condition, no matter how low the price. Also twenty-five dollars' worth of music rolls free with all second-hand Autopianos, Pianola Pianos and other player pianos. Remember, also, that most of these pianos can be had on payments of $1 a week and the best kinds at $6 and $8 a month, if you are not prepared to pay all cash.
