the window 30.000 flowers were used and each was wired by the stem to a toothpick knd then thrust into a

WOMEN PLAN RECEPTION
fortlaiyl Folk to Welcome Founder
of "University City."
OREGON CITY,Or., June 28. (Spe
cial.) If E. C. Lewis, founder of "Unl-
vertrtty City, Mo., is innocent of the
chaVges that have been heaped upon
him in every section of the United
fitates, he. is undoubtedly the most
abused man In America; if Mr. Lewis is
guilty of the charge. It is strange that
authorities would permit him to fill a
lecture engagement at Gladstone Chau
tauqua on July 16, at 8 P. M.
On the theory that a man Is inno
cent until proved guilty the Chautau
qua directors secured Mr. Lewis to lec
. ture on "The Siege of University City.'
Mr. Lewis will be remembered as the
founder of the American Woman's Re
public, the Woman's Industrial Corpor
ation and also founder and publisher of
the Woman's National Weekly. On the,
charge that he was misusing the malls
for his gigantic schemes, which seemed
too ethereal, Mr. Lewis was dragged
into a great legal battle, which first
centered about St. Louis and finally
terminated at Washington. D. C, last
Ir.g over six years. The highest court
of the land failed to convict Mr. Lewis,
however, and his great following
y American women today refer to the
lengthy litigation as "The Ureyrus case
cf America. The Portland branch
the Woman's Republic is planning a
royal reception to Mr; Lewis on his
Gladstone appearance.
