EMBROIDERY ON EXHIBIT
CHURCH ARTICLES ARE
DISPLAY AT MUSEUM.
ON
Collection of Pictures and Weav
ing Brought to City Through
Efforts of Bishop Sumner.
One of the finest collections in
the country of ecclesiastical embroidery,-
painting and -architecture
is now oh. exhibition at, the Port
land art museum, due to the pres
ence in the city of the Episcopal
bishops, clergy and laymen, and
brought here through the influence
of Bishop Walter Taylor Sumner of
Oregon.
The collection of cathedral pic
tures, exhibited on the first floor
of the museum, was lent by the
American Federation of Arts and
sent here from New York city. It
consists of 86 pictures, all etchings,
of the various famous cathedrals,
mostly old ones, of England, France,
Germany and Europe. In addition
to these there is also a collection
of photographs of church buildings
built in America and designed by
Cram and Ferguson of Boston.
Ralph Adams Cram is considered
the leader o'f church builders in this
country, and is also an author of
wide repute.'
The most interesting part of the
exhibition, however, is the collec
tion of ecclesiastical embroidery,
lettering and painting shown on the
second floor, This is from the com
munity of St. John the Baptist of
New York city, and is the be in
the United Statea All of the pieces
displayed were made in the convent
of the community Just outside of
New York.
The exhibition consists of em
broidered copes, chasubles, stoles
and mitres and many fine works of
lettering on velum, among the
latter being several fine examples
of gold lettering on velum of Ty-
ean purple by a process which was
supposed to be lost and which is
now being done by one of the
sisters of the community.
The big pieces of this exhibition
are the four copes. One is of red
velvet woven On a gold background
with the edges in massive em
broidery and copied from a cope of
the 12th century, and the' most
eautiful of the collection. Another
is on a biack velvet background
with the seven sacraments em-
roidered on it. The most lnterest-
ng is of cloth of gold woven by
blind Chinese and is a magnificent
iece of workmanship.
During the Episcopal convention
the art museum is open and free to
the public from 9 A M. to 5 P. M.
on week days and from 2 to 5 P. M,
n Sundays.
SUSPECTED THIEF
HAS OPIUM IN JAIL
Large Quantity of- Drug Is
Taken From Prisoner.
$3500 IN GEMS HELD
Harry Oberkirk Believed Leader
of Gang of Crooks Oper-
v
ating Along Coast.
Diamonds, steel blue and coldly
material, and opium, seductive with
its enchantment of dreams, con
tinued to occupy the limelight at'
inspectors' headquarters last night.
The inspectors are endeavoring to
unravel secrets of the underworld
partly revealed with the arrest Fri
day night of Harry Oberkirk and
Myrtle Clark in an exclusive apart
ment house exclusive to those of
moderate finance in the vicinity of
Trinity Place and Washington
street.
Oberkirk, young, "slick" and taci
turn, is in jail on charges of pos
sessing opium, vagrancy and. dis
orderly conduct. Although hisNjail
was set at only' $500, and police have
nearly $3500 of his property and
money in cufetody, he was unable to
obtain bail because money and dia
monds were held as evidence by
Lieutenant Thatcher.
Diamond Ownership Mystery.
Efforts to clear up Oberkirk's
possession of a beautiful 2 -carat
steel blue diamond yesterday were
unsuccessful. He told inspectors he
bought it from a Seattle firm. Lieu
tenant Thatcher telegraphed the
firm yesterday, receiving an inswer
to the effect that Oberkirk was un
known to the owners and that no
record of such a sale existed. In
addition to this diamond, which is
set in a ring, Oberkirk had a dia
mond of 1 .carats set in his tie
pin and $440 in his pockets. If he
has worked in Portland or else
where. Inspectors Phillips and
Tackaberry were unable to learn
of it.
Oberkirk was searched in the city
jail yesterday and enough opium to
make 100 cards was found. It was
in one piece about as large around
as a man's little finger and an inoh
and a half long. The search revealed
that Oberkirk wore a belt buckle
with a quarter-carat diamond set in
it. As a result of the finding of
the drug, the prisoner's foresight
goes for nothing and he will have
no supply to use while in jail.
Police Know Woman.
Myrtle Clark, the young woman
arrested with him, is well known to
police. She also was searched and
a small quantity of opium was found
concealed in her clothing. She will
be deprived of the-drug also.
For the last four months the cou
ple had conducted an opium den on
the first floor of the apartment
ouse without discovery. Parties of
ddicts to the number of six or
even had been known by police to
gather in the room. The cracks of
he door were stopped with a velvet
matting during the orgies, the police
id; and when other occupants of
he house noticed the "funny smell"
n the first floor they never asso
iated -it with opium smokers.
Friend Leaves City.
H. M. Warner, alleged friend of
Oberkirk and the woman, left for
San Francisco Friday afternoon in a
hired' automobile, the police said
esterday. Warner, who is wanted
n a larceny warrant accusing him
the theft of $5000 and a valuable
diamond ring, hired a driver and
car for "fabulous" rentals, the po-
ice learned, paying the money down
to the owner before leaving the city.
Charlotte Matthews, lessee of the
Raymond lodging house, at Third
and Ankeny streets, accused Warner
unlocking her trunk and remov-
ng money and jewels from it.
A description of Warner, his car
and his driver, was broadcast by
radio last night, and the police
think it possible the "city slicker"
may be arrested somewhere between
the Oregon line and San Francisco.
Oberkirk Believed Leader.
The police are working on the
theory that Oberkirk is leader of a
gang of diamond thieves who may
have obtained the jewels in almost
any coast city. Telegrams are out
and the search will be continued.
they said, until Oberkirk shows
here he obtained them. The Clark
woman said Friday night that Ober
kirk gave her a diamond ring she
was wearing, but yesterday she
changed her story and said she
bought it from a woman. The in-
pectors learned little of Oberkirk's
activities yesterday, saying that
the truth was not in him."
That the rising- generation of the
nation may be saved from the de
stroying effects of this was the
final prayer of the assembled, pas
tors of the churches in the Oregon
district.
That the anrraal cost of intemrper
ance in the world would pay the
entire debts of all the nations in
a period of 20 years was the predic
tion of the conference following the
reports of committees which com
piled figures-on the cost of breaking
the laws. The conference opposed
the cancelling of any debts owed to
the united States by foreign nations,
Reports of the standing commit
tees occupied the greater portion of
the business session yesterday, the
meeting opening with an address
by Bishop Washinger, head of the
Pacific district. Several musical
numbers were given by the confer
ence quartet and by the choir of
the Alberta church, where the con
ference is in session. Miss Emma
Paige, evangelist, was the speaker
at last night's open session in the
church.
No business will be transacted by
the delegates here today, the entire
day being given over to worship,
Bishop Washinger and! Dr. J. D.
Boughter, president of Philomath
college, will deliver the sermons at
the morning and night service, re
spectively, and special music has
been provided for both sermons.
The conference will end its four
day session with a short business
session to be held tomorrow morn
ing.
VISION NEED STRESSED
Bishop Brent Delivers Message
to Civic League.
The need for world-wide vision on
the part of peoples and common
wealths was stressed by Bishop
Charles H. Brent of western New
York, ex-chaplain-general of the
American expeditionary forces, in an
address at the luncheon of the Civic
league at the Benson hotel yester
day.
The speaker declared that one ot
the big troubles with the world is
that people have been thinking of
their small community problems and
binding themselves to narrow boun
daries when they should be think
ing of world problems.
Bishop Brent touched UDon the
importance of studying the various
problems which come up before
passing judgment. He declared that
too many measures were either de
feated or. passed by people who did
not know their real eignificance.
"Revolution was never a right
but sometimes a duty," declared the
speaker. He told of the Dutch, Eng
lish, French and American revolu
tions and how each of them had re
sulted in some good.
Plans for the near east relief con
vention were told by J. J. Hand
saker. A brief address on Constitution
day was given by A C. Newill, pres
ident of the club.

Railway Extenson Reported.
WHITE SALMON, Wash., Sept. 16.
(Special.) The Klickitat Northern
railroad will be extended into the
Glenwood country, according to per
sistent rumors of progress afloat
here. Whether it is to be extended to
ward Laurel, or directly north to
Glenwood, has not been learned. Tiit
fact that the Milton Box company,
operating a mill near Glenwood, has
closed down to begin work on a
larger mill is regarded as signifi
cant. The railroad extension also
would serve to haul supplies for the
Horse Heaven irrigation district in
take and ditch northeast of Glenwood.
WELL WATER POISONED
RANCHER REPORTS FINDING
ARSENIC IN DRINK,
Bert Ball Declares. Cantaloupes
in Garden Also Were
Tampered With.
Arsenic in his well water, and in
cantaloupes from his garden, nearly
cost Bert Ball, former Portlander,
his life during the last week, he told
Inspectors Tackaberry and Phillips
last night.
Ball, who In the old days owned
and ran the "B. & B." saloon and is
well known to the police, three
years ago bought a farm of 17 acres
near Scappoose. He said he had
never had trouble with anyone;
that he and his wife were very well
contented with life on their farm,
which they had converted into a
chicken ranch.
Last week they noticed a peculiar
flavor In the well water. They sent
sample to a Portland chemist.
Ball told inspectors, and received a
return showing that it contained a
dangerous quantity of arsenic per
gallon.
Yesterday Ball picked & canta
loupe from his garden for dinner,
and after eating half of It was
taken sick. The idea of arsenic im
mediately occurred to him and he
took an antidote.
Ball, who is about 40 years old.
broke down at police headquarters
last night. He said the Columbia
county authorities had been unable
to help him. Inspectors Tackaberry
and Phillips could not take up the
case, so they referred him to a pri
vate detective agency which will
endeavor to ferret out the source of
the poison.

note which I found on my
desk when I returned
from class last Wednes
day afternoon eloquently
emphasizes this:
" "My Dear Mr. Walker:
" 'I did want a little
talk with you before I
left for Eugene, but
you have been so busy
that I seem always to
have missed you.
" 'I am leaving this,
afternoon full of en
thusiasm. I certainly
feel greatly indebted
to you for the oppor
- -tunity you have given
me and trust I may re
pay you in some way.
" My recollection of
days spent here will
always be most pleas
ant, and I feel it has
been a great privilege
, to have been one of
the many to" receive
your kind advice, in
struction and friendly
counsel. Sincerely,
" MissLynetteDavis.'
