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. Ask t6 see the following:
