OK J. -VVHITCOMB BROUGHER, WHO WILL LECTURES AT WHITE TEMPLE NEXT FRIDAY NIGHT. P NEW SCREEN PATENTED Portland Man Invents One That W ill Roll Ont of Way of Windows. Housewives and architects alike will welcome the introduction of a new de vice, the roller window screen. Just patented by James Cyrus Smith, of Portland. .The new screen consists of a metal moulding with a common fly screen fitted into it. much as a shutter is placed in the window of a railroad coach. The shutter is on rollers and may be operated like a window blind, except that it flies back to a nest at the top when it is released. By using the "J. Cy" screen, as it has been named by its Inventor, the house wife is saved the trouble of taking out the screens every time she washes the windows in the Summer. It also saves her husband the trouble of yanking them down in the house in the Fall and putting them back in the Spring. The window moulding may be made by the architect to help carry out .the general architectural scheme. Archi tects have long: been searching- for a means of making windows artistic and distinctive, and perhaps the new mould ing will serve the purpose. When the screen is up. nothing is visible but Its moulding. Different moulding designs may be made in any size and of any material desired. FARMERS FLOCK MARKET East Side Consumers Quickly Buy . Out All Dressed Chickens. Wilson Beneflel. member of the com mittee of arrangements, said that yes- terdav was the best day for the Cen tral East Side public market on East Sixth street. Farmers came to their stalls before 5 o'clock in the morning. and sales started at once. Dressed chickens were featured, but quickly were sold out, and, by 10 o'clock, were all gone. They brought an average of 25 cents per pound. More producers came yesterday than formerly and the committee was much encouraged. A substantial, steady market Is being built up. Engineers to Picnic Today. The sixth annual picnic excursion of the Portland local of the International I'nlon of Steam and Operating Engi neers will be held today at Columbia City. The members of the union, their families and friends, will leave at 8:30 A. M. on the steamer Kellogg. The day will be devoted entirely to plea sure, sports featuring the programme. The prises for the events will be do nated br various Portland business ORTLAND always has the latcB string out for Dr. James Whit comb Brougher. AVhen he occu pied the pulpit of -the White Temple as permanent pastor he attracted tne largest audiences that ever packed into church In this city, and every time he has returned on a visit his drawing power has been proved. Next noay night he is to lecture here again, and there is no doubt about his welcome. Th. lectnro Fridav night will be de livered in the White Temple under the auspices of the women of the congre gation. The subject will be, "People Who Ought to be Muzzled." It is a characteristic Brougher subject. Since leaving Portland, Dr. Brougher has conquered new worlds. His mag netism, which stood six years' test Jn Portland, has served to draw in Los Angeles the largest audiences attend ing any religious services in the world. If it were a theater the "S. R. O." sign would be hung out every Sunday. Of his work an associate there recently wrote: Work Is Described. "In Los Angeles, Dr. Brougher is the Idolized pastor of the most individual istic Baptist Church in the world. The church itself is a regular religious de partment store, under the direction of the pastor and a large number of salaried and volunteer assistants, ministering through a hundred organi zations and committees to every con ceivable need of mankind. Its con gregation worships in a fire-proof building, with a beautiful bronze and green auditorium seating 35,000 peo ple. Here Dr. Bougher preaches to the largest regular congregation In the world. It Is the usual thing to see the big lobby filled and overflowing at 6:30 Sunday evening, with two or more policemen to handle the crowd. The magnetic personality of the preacher, his bright optimism, his brimming mirth, his tender sympathy, his fiery eloquence, his passion for winning souls, his superb leadership, his genius for drawing and holding great audiences, have all combined to gather about him a large company of church workers, whose loyalty and enthusiasm are akin to hero-worship." Within the past few years Dr. Brougher has lectured before great audiences in all the larger cities of the country and from many Chautau qua platforms. He has been highly praised by the press where he has spoken, and the work of his Los Angeles Church has come In for much attention throughout the entire country. Recently an Eastern maga zine of wide circulation wrote of him as follows : Magazine Version Given. "Imagine the .Hippodrome, the larg est playhouse of New York City and of the New World! Imagine it filled with people from footlight to the last row in the topmost gallery. People the stage with a big chorus choir, and in front of the choir put a lean, up standing, shock-headed man. Imagine all this, and what you have is not the Hippodrome on a Saturday night, but the Temple Baptist Church, Los Angeles, California, with James Whit comb Brougher, D. D., in the pulpit. Dr. Brougher belongs to the eccentric type of preacher, but he is not un couth or uneducated. He looks more the political orator or the villain in the melodrama, than he does the might be confounded with Apollos, but never with Apollo. But, as he stood with those snappy eyes, lurking un der heavy brows, roving over his audi ence. taking them in row by row, tier bv tier, box by box. gallery upon gal lery, mounting upward, upward to the very top. to the fifth and last bal cony, one was sensible of a great and growing magnetism within tne man. As he moved he gestured, leaning for ward at times, one hand upon his knee, his eyes narrow, his pugnacious chin thrust up; and then he would straighten and stride to and fro again, a very plain, a very ordinary looking man. But presently a change comes over him; harmonies appear in his speech; metaphors flourish and sentences swing; periods are rounded; the thunder of oratory reverberates, and the spell of the preacher has possessed the man and the congrega tion. The audience was keyed by the man's histrionic power to a state of nerve tension where the rustling of a programme rang in one's ears like the sudden breaking of a wave upon the seashore. Sensational? Of course he Is. So was Jeremiah." preacher. "He has no fatal gift of beauty. He THREE DAMAGE SUITS FILED One Employe Wants $25,000, Others Ask for $10,000 Each. Emil Swanson, Ironworker, brought suit yesterday for $25,000 damages, naming F. C. Striegel as defendant. The complaint Bets out that the former was employed by the latter to aid in the reconstruction of the front of the Arcade Theater and that a brick wall, not properly secured, fell, many of the brick striking and permanently Injur ing the plaintiff. Frank L. Robinson, formerly em ployed by Frank L. Smith in the base ment of his meat market, where lard and sausage are manufactured, brought suit for damages yesterday for $10,- 000, alleging that owing to faulty equipment he was severely burned. A third similar suit was filed yes terday by Fred W. DIercka, who al leges he received permanent injuries by falling against whirling saws in the Multnomah Lumber & Box Com pany. He asks $10,000 damages. . FRUIT CROP OUTLOOK GOOD Conditions Satisfactory, Says Secre tary of Distributors. Crop conditions are satisfactory in the leading fruitgrowing sections of Oregon and Washington, according to H. C Sampson, secretary-treasurer of the North Pacific Fruit Distributors, who was in the city yesterday in con ference with Wilmer Seig, sales man ager of the Oregon division. Mr. Sampson is on his way to South ern Oregon to explain to fruitgrowers the operations of the organization. At a meeting held in Salem with represen tative producers. Manager Seig ob tained contracts for picking and pack ing 100 cars of high grade peaches. HOSE RULES MADE Sprinkling Every Other Day Is Plan of Mr. Daly. HOUSE NUMBERS TO RULE Even Date Time for Persons Living at Even Addresses to Wet Lawns and Klghta Shift to Odd Places on Odd Date. To eliminate low-water pressure In some parts of the city, due to the heavy strain on mains during afternoon sprinkling hours, City Commissioner Daly yesterday issued orders changing the sprinkling regulations so that even numbered houses will use water for sprinkling only on even numbered dates and odd numbered houses only on odd numbered dates. In other words, each house will be permitted to sprinkle only every other day. Afternoon SDrlnkllng hours are changed by the order so that sprinkling will be permitted from r. midnight instead of from 4 P. M. to 9 P M.. as heretofore. The new reg ulations are effective today. Thi. heinir Jnlv 19. only houses hav ing an odd number, such as 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, etc., are entitled to sprinkle Tomorrow 4s an even numbered date and even numbered houses only will be entitled to sprinkle. No change ia maae in morning sprinkling hours, excepting that morning sprinkling will De con fined to every other day, the same as afternoon sprinkling. Inspectors will be sent out to enforce the new reguia tinm in thn letter. Commissioner Daly's explanation reads: "Owing to the unprecedented draft on the water system In some sections of the city, due to lawn springing, which has developed a condition where in it is difficult. In some instances, to secure water for domestic purposes, it has been found necessary to aaopt an emergency rule to govern during the h AjLtarl Reason.

W Wise was dismissed yesterday in Judge Jones' court, restitution having been made. Wise was charged by the Singer Sewing Machine Company with haying taken 162 belonging to that concern. ' Here is the proposed new dental law tnat wjll Bust the Dental Trust. If passed by the voters of Oregon next November it will mean the beginning of a square deal for every com petent dentist, and safety for the public. It is short and clear and every voter can easily understand just what it means. To place this proposed law on the ballot required an initia tive petition of 10,100 names. I had just eight days' time to reach the voters andsecura the necessary signatures. So willing were thn voters to help me smash the dental trust that 17,190 names were signed to the petition in five days. The people are geting wise to this Ethical Dental Trust. Read the law: A BILL FOS AN INITIATIVE LAW. An act to regulate the practice of dentistry and to repeal all acts in conflict herewith and therewith. Can you afford to give a dentist $5 to $20 an hour to give you a private lecture on how to care for your teeth! Only the wealthy can afford the luxury of a "My dentist." The family of average means must economize in order to meet the dentist's bills, and j et everyone at some time in life is compelled to have their teeth attended to. I have been called "the poor man's dentist," because by organization and specialization I have brought the price of good, painless dentistry within the reach of every American family, and be cause I was the first 'to perfect real painless dentistry without injurious after-effects, I nave been called "Painless" Parker. I have devoted my life to preachiag the gospel of clean, healthy teeth. I have lectured to thousands upon the streets of American cities, and thousands more have been warned of the dangers of diseased teeth by reading my advertisements and books. Because I do this the Ethical Dental Trust of Oregon says I am a "quack" and should not be permitted to practice dentistry in this state. I am a graduate of the Philadelphia Dental College, the second oldest school of its kind in America, and am licensed as compe tent in New York, Pennsylvania, Maine, Illi nois, California and Canada, and have prac ticed dentistry nearly a quarter of a century, having performed more dental operations and examined more mouths than any dentist in America. Yet the Oregon Board of Dental examiners denied me a license to practice in this state because they said I was incompetent. As a matter of fact they denied me a license because I did not belong to the Ethical Dental Trust of Oregon I do not charge the trust scale of prices and I advertise my business the same as all modern, successful business men do. I came to Portland three months ago and established an office here such as I have in other large cities. It is on the second floor of the Merchants Trust building, corner Sixth and Washington streets, and is the largest and best-equipped dental office in Pacific North Vvorv Hfmticr. nssnfiared with m in this office is a graduate dentist of experience and licensed to practice under the laws of this state. It is open every week day from 8:30 A. M. to b M. ana i snaii eej n ojieu ue-ne the Ethical Dental Trust.. . I believe this is a free country and that I have a perfect right to give to my patients con sultations and examinations without charge, and to fix such prices for my work as is mutually satisfactory to my patients and myself without regard to the rules and regulations of the Ethical Dental Trust. I also believe that a dental trust is as much of an injury to the great masses of the people as any other kind of a trust. I believe the people of Oregon who pay the dentists' bills should know all the facts about this trust, and knowing them, will help me exterminate this pernicious combine, which, is not only trying to put me out of lniRiness and brand me a "quack," but is also robbing the people with high prices for poor dentistry. Yours for a fight to the finish, B PAINLESS PARKER, Dentist. Portland San Francisco Los Angeles Oakland San Diego Bakersfield Brooklyn, N. Y.

ToUs, Mexico and Tariff Each Come la lor Share, but Foreign Batter mud Eggs Inspire Real Opposition. "About 80 per cent of the people I met on my recent trip to California expressed themselves as not insym pathy with the policies of the Wilson Administration," said Chalmers H. Mc Neelan, a prominent Portland lumber man, yesterday. Mr. McNeelan returned Thursday night from San Francisco. He took the ocean trip both ways. "President Wilson is criticised not only for his attitude on the tolls ques tion and the Mexican difficulties, but for tie present tariff status. Dairy men, in particular, complain. Austra lian butter and Chinese eKirs inspire many of the kicks. The cattlemen are also ag-gravated at Wilson on account of the heavy importation of meats. "Among- tlmbermen, the principal grievances are with the shingle men. Shingles are now being Imported from Canada in large quantities. On my recent trip I didn't strike a person who was enthused over the Wilson Ad ministration." Mr. McNeelan said that the Oregon building on the San Francisco fair grounds made as good a. showing as any of the state buildings. "It may not cost as' much as some of them," he said, "but it Is to be both unique and attractive. Naturally, I am pleased with its big timbers, being a tlmberman. but I dare say it will strike the fancy of the average fair visitor as much as any other state Dunaing. "The workmen seem to be getting on in splendid shape. It looks very much as though all of the buildings will be ready in plenty of time for the opening. raped serious Injury.
