Unusual activity is noted in the
construction of large buildings in
the downtown business section with
the result that in some places the
aspect of the districts is being
changed. Jt Is estimated that there
are now under construction jn the
city buildings of this type aggregat
ing at least $3,000,000 in cost.
The long list of structures under
way includes the $1,000,000 .Elks'
temple at Eleventh and Alder streets,
the steel work on which is now go
ing up rapidly; the J. K. Gill build
ing under way at Fifth and Stark
streets, to cost in the neighbor
hood of $S00,0O0: the Ambassador
apartments at Sixth and Madison
streets, costing about $750,000; the
Sovereign apartment hotel, costing
$500,000, now under way at Broad
way and Madison street; the five
story Starr building at Fourth and
Tine streets, costing in the neigh
borhood of $100,000, and the new ga.
rage building to be erected by the
Meier & Frank . company on the
ruins of the old warehouse at Broad
way and Taylor street ' .,'
i Buildings erected on Stark.- Oak
and Burnside streets, just west of
the old business district, have
changed the aspect of that section
of the city, a number of old struc
tures having been torn out to make
way for modern buildings. Besides
these are a large number of smaller
type structures going up in various
sections of the city. Plans' for the
extension of the north portion of the
Pittock block at a cost of $500,000
were also recently announced. It
was said that this work would be
carried forward in the near future.
Building operations in Portland
for the first five months or the
present year exceed the volume of
new construction for the correspond
ing period last year by more than
$4,000,000. Construction of all kinds
from January through May of this
year, including permits for repair of
. buildings and electrical and plumb
ing permits, aggregated $12,070,600.
Residence construction js especial
ly active in the city now and indica
tions are that all records in the his
tory of the city will be broken by
residence construction this year.
Valuation of residence permits
issued during the first five months
of this year reached $5,559,825. Per
mits for 17 apartment houses have
been issued so far this year, involv
ing an expenditure of $588,800. These
do not include the Sovereign apart
ment hotel.

NATATORIUM NEARLY READY
t .
New Structure at Newport Will
Open to Public This Week.
The construction of the Newport
(Or,) natatorium, which will have
one of the largest swimming tanks
on the coast, is now rapidly nearing
completion, according to advices re
ceived from there last week. It will
be opened to the public this week
The building is 135 feet in length
and 65 feet wide. It will provide
every convenience for patrons, in
cluding private baths for those who
do not care to swim in the pool. A
grill room has been established; in

breakers of the Pacific ocean, only
NEW STAIRCASE IS PLANNED
Disappearing Stairway Invented
for Modern Home. "
That the stairway, in the planning
of a house, is invariably an after
consideration in the contention of
some inventive persons who have
turned to the solution of the prob
lem with the result that the disap
pearing stairway has made its ap
pearance in the trade market of this
city.
When not in use this innovation
is neatly tucked away in the ceiling,
concealed by a few artistic panels.
Occupants of a home equipped with
this novel arrangement, when de
sirous of ascending to the floor
above, merely pull an inconspicuous
chain and the near-appearing stair
case, which is balanced and operates
on rollers, automatically drops into
place. Another pull on a different
chain and it quietly resumes Its
place in the ceiling.

CHINESE PUBLISHER TO BE
HONORED BY CALIFORNIANS
Pomona College to Confer Doctor's Degree on ex-Student Who Came
Here as Immigrant From Rice Farm. . V
BY FOREST WHITE.
(Copyright, 1022. by The Oregonlan.)

OS ANGELES, June 24. (Spe
cial.) Pomona college, one of
the oldest and 'most conserva
tive of the high institutions of learn
ing in southern California, made a
gala occasion of its commencement
this week, when a great gathering of
trustees, faculty alumni and student
lo.dies took pride in conferring
honor on one of Its ex-students. Dr.,
Fung Foo See of Shanghai, China,
had returned to the United States to
receive the degree of doctor of laws
as the highest acknowledgment in
the gift of his first college.
Forty years ago to the month,
Fung See first came to tfie United
States. A weather-beateni steam
ship from the orient, the smoke
from her- banked fires still drifting
up from her funnel, lay tied up to a
dock in San Francisco. A horde of
blinking. Chinese coolies, whipped
from their dark pen between decks
wit,h oaths and threatening fists,
were spewed out upon the dock,

heathen baggage of queer-locking

and minor bales and bundles.

Theser coolies were herded to wait

cover their march to Chinatown, for
the city was seething and constantly

coolies for possible flight that alone
would save them from mob violence
if discovered outside of Chinatown.
With many a squeal and struggle
of protest their baggage was sur
rendered and piled into an uncer
tain pyramid on a flimsy wagon
drawn by a decrepit horse. Atop
the heap as mere baggage was
what appeared to be a squat bundle.
The wagon got under way in the
gathering gloom. The light of a
street lamp revealed the nature of
the load to water-front idlers. . The
movement of the small brown head
that capped the pile betrayed the
presence of live and unprotected
game.
Immigrant Is Pelted.
With a yell the pack was in mo
tion, heavy missiles first at hand
were hurled but failed of their
mark, nd a dump of half rotting
onions at the curb then furnished
more plentiful if less effective am
munition until the target, battered
and stung, slowly drew out of range.
The plodding horse at last turned
into the black mouth of a blind
alley in Chinatown. Men came in
the dark to unload the wagon. The
animated bundle scrambled down
and was greeted with an exclama
tion of surprise. He had been for
gotten. One of the men took him
by the hand, led him through a
dimly lighted basement, through
a maze of underground passageways

Boy 13 Years Old.
Fung See, coolie boy, 13 years old,
frail, delicate, such a little fellow,
son of a poor rice farmer and denied
even his share of rudimentary edu
cation for work on the farm where
famine had lost its novelty, had ar
rived at his journey's -end in the
land of gold and .promise.
Smuggled from the underground
kennel to Sacramento, then retain
ing the atmosphere of the mining
camps, he was put out to domestic
slavery for his keep and $1 a month.
On his first venture upon the
streets 'he was kicked and brutally
beaten, and was glad to drag him
self back to his refuge of labor, not
to leave it again for many fnonths.
Unluckily, as it must have seemed
to him at the time, the attentive
Fung acquired, a fund of simple
English which fitted him for er
rands about the town. He had
grown weary, was often kicked and
beaten, and on several occasions
had to flee for his life before a
prowling mob. Once he surely
would have been kicked to death
but for the interposition of some
women, their compassion aroused
because he was such a little fel
low. Thus Fung first . knew the
word "protect," and its meaning.
It was something he was never to
forget.
Christianity Is Embraced.
A band of Salvation army work
ers came to Sacramento. Fung,
timid and wary, but overcome with
curiosity, drew close on the rim of
the csowd at a night street meet
ing. The speaker said that Jesus
would protect" all who would give
themselves into his keeping. The
songs reiterated this, and Fung,
When Ve" VadV'ask'ed an who
.. : - t. n 1 ; v. v. l i .
wanted to give themselves into the
possession of Jesus to step forward,
Fung followed the first man. The
band welcomed him with a song of
triumph. He was their first Chinese
convert, and Fang has kept the
faith. - , , :
Fung traveled with the Salvation
army band. His vision broadened.
He learned to 'be a fair stenog
rapher. Then he had time to read
some good books. They helped him.
Secretly he conceived the ambition
of working his way through school
and college.
. Friend Offers Aid.
A chance meeting in Los Angeles
with Samuel Hahn, a Christian gen
tleman, devotedly interested in the
cause of education, led Fung even
tually to Pomona.
Fung made friends and was ac
cepted on an equal footing by the
student body. He worked his way
through three years of preparatory
school how nobody knew or paid
much heed. Then he sickened. His
friends brought a physician. The
doctor was shocked.' Overwork and
under-nourishment had received
their price. Fung had been slowing
starving his body beyond physical
endurance before the eyes of his
teachers and friends. He was ban
ished from school for a job in the
outdoors, and when he ventured to
speak of his ambition for education
the doctors told him to "forget it."
But a year later Fung came back.
The doctor lifted the ban by reason
of remarkable improvement.
TTnlverstty Course Begun.
He worked his way through his
fourth year in preparatory school
and through his sophoijiore year in
college and then went to the Uni
versity of . California at Berkeley
because there he was able to sub
stitute the study of Chinese for ,a
modern language, and he worked
his way through .the university
course, taking his degree of bache
lor of arts. Then, followed a year
in the teachers' school at Columbia,
New. York, and the winning of his
master of arts degree.
Fung returned to China to take
part in modern education work. At
Pekin he won his doctor's degree
and was designated for official life,
,but never took, up its duties. He
preferred the offer that came to
go to Shanghai as a member of the
Commercial Press, then little more
and jobbing headquarters. Belo

Dr. Fung Rotary Delegate!
Dr. Fung is also chairman of the
national committee of the T. M.
C. A. in China and was chosen as
one of the two delegates sent by
the Rotary club of Shanghai to the
international convention at Los
Angeles a fact which gave Pomona
college the long-wished-for oppor
tunity to honor him. and will give
Dr. Fung an opportunity to visit
Columbia college this summer to
keep himself abreast of modern
educational methods.
It is thus that Fung See, the
coolie boy immigrant of '40 years
ago, came back to America, to the
land of gold, the land of promise.

Smithsonian Institution Specimen
Include Species of Camel
and Horses.
WASHINGTON, D. C, June 24.
Animal fossils throwing a new light
on the little-known animal life of
America in the Pliocene age have
been added to the collection of the
Smithsonian institution by the field
explorations conducted in Arizona in
the last year and described in a re
port by the institution. Among the
most interesting specimens discov
ered, the report said, are a new
species of mastodon, a large and
small species of camel and two or
three species of horses. J. W. Gid
ley, member of the Smithsonian
staff who conducted the explora
tions, says the collection of fossils
"represents practically a new fauna
of the Pliocene age, containing
about 60 vertebrae species." .
Dealing with the astrophysical
field work, of the institution, the re
port said the observations of the
sun now being made at its station
on Mount Montezuma. Chile, are be
ing telegraphed daily to Buenos
Aires and "employed regijlarly by
the Argentine weather bureau f,or
weather-forecasting purposes."
"While the Smithsonian institu
tion," the report said, "is not yet in
a position to champion the use of
statistics of solar variation for
weather forecasts, the great inter
est which its studies of solar varia
bility have aroused here and abroad
seems clearly to warrant the con
tinued maintenance of its two sta
tions until a satisfactory basis for a
test of the solar variability as
a weather-forecasting element has
been laid."

As a surprise to their guests a
musical programme had been ar
ranged by the management. Miss
