. ... boats. One will leave the dock at the
Supple Ballin shipyards and the

ward the visitors will be taken to 11c
LiOughliu Park for a box dinner.
" Attendance Reeord Expected.
The Chamber of Commerce commit
tee in charge of Buyers' week last
, night announced its belief that the
attendance is to break all records this
year. A large number of merchants
who have come to Portland in previous
years are going to repeat this year, and
they are bringing along many of their
friends.
- While the big things in the minds of
'.i visitors is the large stocks of merchan-
dise, in which Portland leads the en
"' tire. Northwest, the correspondence 011
file indicates that up-state merchants
'". are keenly alive to the part that ship
. building is to play in .the prosperity
'I . of the state for the next few years.
' They declare that they want to visit
the yards, see what ships are actually
. 'i on the ways and determine what ma
terials are used and where they come
' ' from. If the yards shall employ an
army of labor, numbering thousands,
the up-state districts realize that they
will be called upon to supply ma-
. . terials for construction and tor feed
ing the men.
Thursday morning is to be devoted to
visiting shipyards, and it is thought
that the visitors can be assembled at
the Supple & Ballin yard in time for
luncheon aboard one of the boats.
The steamers for Oregon City will
bo boarded at 1:30. Deck dancing to
the tune of the "Merry Water Dog"
will be programmed for the return trip
at night. j
Visiting Women Provided For.
It Is expected that most visitors this
year will be accompanied by their
wives and daughters. Preparations -are
: under way to supply these visitors with
escorts and care for them while their
husbands and fathers are busy in the
big warehouses.
A feature of- the week will be the
great furniture display in the Blake
McFall building on Fourth street. All
the vacant floors of that building will
be turned over to the furniture manu
facturers of Portland, and there they
will display for the first time a com
plete exhibit of articles manufactured
here.
It is expected that the exhibit will
attract thousands of . Portland people
during Buyers' week. It is certain that
thousands of them do not know of the
magnitude of the furniture business in
this city.
Furniture dealers from outside of
Portland will have a special ltn of en
tertainment offered in their honor.
They will be guests of the manufac
turers. No previous Buyers' week has ever
ffered bo elaborate a programme as
has been arranged for this, the fifth
annual at Portland. A coupon ticket
will be used as usual. The- coupons
Kive free admission and participation
in all events.

FINE PAINTING HERE
Exhibit of Titian Masterpiece
Not to Be Made, However.
LICENSE LAW IS IN WAY
'Christ Raising Liazarus From the
Dead" Is Subject, and Owner
Declares Genuineness of Mas
terpiece Is Froved.
A wonderfully fine painting, with all
the characteristics shown in the work
of the great master, Titian, is now in
Portland, but probably will not be ex
hibited here because of a city ordi
nance requiring circus license for such
an exhibition and absence of a suitable
downtown available place. William
Crawford Anderson, who arrived yes
terday from California, Is the owner
of the picture and has it with him at
the New Perkins Hotel.
"Christ Raising Lazarus From the
Dead" is the subject and the story is
told in all its mysterious beauty In the
coloring made famous by Titian the
deep browns, reds and golden yellows.
There are eight figures or characters
in the picture and they are arranged
acroua the canvas and. la three groups,
At the left there is the Christ an Titian
painted him in a red robe and with left
hand outstretched. At his feet there is
a boy and beside him. Mary looking up
with expression of adoration and love.
Lazarus with flesh still palo and with
attitude of one Just taken from the
tomb is having his wrists unthonged
by John. Three others are looking on
with awe, surprise and wonder. One
of these Is Martha. The other two are
disciples.
Genainenesa Declared Proved.
"There is every proof that this is a
genuine Titian," said Mr. Anderson yes
terday, "and I am. Indeed, sorry that
we cannot exhibit it here.'
- There is the pride of the owner and
the art lover in his admiration for his
picture. "See those wonderful reds and
those deep browns. See how the left
hand Is emphasized in every figure.
That was one of Titian's keynotes."
The painting is 38x48 inches but
when properly placed and lighted has
the appearance of being larger. The
characters are all distinct and the
work, although bearing the cracks and
marks of time and hard usage, is equal
to close ' inspection. Storm clouds
against a little blue of the sky and the
low hills In the distance afford the only
introduction of coloring In blues or
tints other than the three prevailing
tones.
Picture Captured by Napoleon.
Mr. Anderson declares that the paint
ing was cut from a frame and captured
In Italy in the Napoleonic wars and
was brought to America by Napoleon's
brother, who married an American,
Miss Patterson, and was left with the
family of Admiral Bounce, of Balti
more. Later the picture found its way
to Connecticut, and was owned by the
head of a large piano house, from whom
ilr. Sates, ol Worcester, bought it, and
Mr. Anderson says he bought it from
Mr. Bates.
He has exhibited the painting at
Stanford University and some other
places in the South.
