usual eloquent and forceful style, to
large and Intelligent audience last even
ing at A. CoU. W.Tlall. An excellent
program of literary exercises snd musio
preceding th. lecture was greatly ap
preciated by the audience and added
much to the interest of the occasion. A
splendid orchestra was furnished by
Miss Matle Van Houten. A fine recita
tion was delivered by Miss Zena York of
San Francisco and a recitation and a
song by Miss Ethel and Miss Eva Clow
were well received by th. audience, A
well-rendered duet by Miss Blanch.
Qufne and Miss Van Houten completed
tha program.
At the close of the lecture Dr. York
expressed hla thanks, to the liberals of
Portland for their kindness and aasist-
ance diirtna- hla atav In thla cltv. A
pleasant social hour was ui'eh enjoyed
by all, while refreshments Were served"
by tha ladles of th. audience. Dr. York
goes from here to Sllverton for a aeries
of lectures and by invitation will return
to" Portland and open a course of liberal
lectures' about tb. middle of September.
Passsge of an ordinance investing th
City Engineer with authority over shade
trees haa not eliminated that Issue from
publlo discussion. While the city off!
clsls are credited with good faith snd
most people sre disposed to accept the!
views at full valuation, some srdent ad
vocstes of hade tree preservation be
Here that either that ordinance should
be repealed, and the trees be placed in
the care of the park board, or that th
ordinance should be amended. One of
the latter, a lawyer who is President of
the Tsxpsyers' League, F. W. Mulkey
suggests that the ordinance be amended
so ss to make it the duty of all police
men on their beats to demand the writ
ten permit to be Issued by the City En
glneer from sll persons who sre seen
cutting down or trimming shade trees.
Mr. Mulkey believes that this will for
tlfy the ordinance, and make it opera
tlve. ' Otherwise, says he. people will
be constantly proceeding without legal
authority without the knowledge of the
city officials.
Such deep Interest has been felt In tha
matter of shade tree preaervatlon, that
expressions of opinion have been con
atant since the Council oassed the ordl
nance. Many still belTeve that the park
board should have been Invested with
the authority that has been given to the
City Engineer; and that, so far as con
cerns the necessity for frequent meet
ings of the board, the Mayor could dele
gate bis authority as chairman ex-of
flclo, or arrange so that he would not
be compelled to attend all sessions.
The agitation, however, has aroused
Interest so deep that whatever may be
done in altering the present status or
leaving the ordinance In statu quo, all
officials concerned will realise the
strength of the sentiment for shade tree
preservation.
Question of Saw era.
One of the enthusiastic exponents of
shade tree preservation Is Holbrook
Wlthlngton. who, in speaking of the the
ory of the authorities with reference to
sewers, and the Injury done to them by
the roots of poplsrs and cottonwooda,
offers the following expression of opin
ion: "At this time, when one of our city's
chief attractions is the luxuriant foliage
of its shade trees. It seems pertinent
to renew the inquiry as to the necessity
of destroying so many of these trees.
The principal reason for this destruction
seems to be the fact that many of them
Interfere with our sewer system, but
Is this a sufficient reason? During the
past winter, in almost every Instance,
the excuse for cutting down trees has
been thst the roots penetrated some
sewer, and Obstrucujd Its now. but why
not avoid this by having good sewers?
This obstruction is never found unless
there Is in the sewer some crack or open
lng through which the roots gnln en
trance In the first place, and therefore, a
properly constructed sewer should be
proof against trouble of this kind for
a long time. Furthermore, when the
sewer reaches such a stage of decay that
the roots of trees can gain admission,
It should be repaired In any case, so
that the trees In reality do good service
by giving prompt notice of such defects,
which otherwise could not be located
easily, and which if neglected, would
soon develop into serious nuisances.
Would it not be better, therefore, to al
low our trees to remain undisturbed un
til age or decay calls for their removal
and avoid these troubles with our sewers
by constructing them without cracks
and when the cracks appear and the
treea give us notice of the fact by ob
structing the pipes, do what the situa
tion calls for, trees or no trees repair
the sewers."

"As sn Illustration of what one en

Immigration," said John P. Jones, travel
lng passenger sgent of the Southern Pa
ciflc, "George W. James, our agent at
Brownsville, hss brought 168 people
from other states to settle in Oregon.
"Mr. James enlisted the support of
the citizens of his town, they Issued a
finely written and printed booklet, and
caused Its distribution throughout vs
rloua ststes In the East. The people
who were thus Induced to come West
hava mostly settled in snd around
Brownsville.
"There Is not a vacant dwelling house
in that region, nor Is there one anywhere
la the Willamette Valley. Houaes are
needed to take care of the people who
will come In this fall, and the number
will be very large. OursOregonlans do
not realise the strength of the tide that
has set In towsrd this state. The Har
rlman Immigration bureau haa cauaed
the distribution of hundreds of thou
sands of booklets and folders setting
forth the advantages of Oregon, snd the
results sr. greater then was expected.
The Influx has been so heavy that now
it becomes an Issue ss to how to pro
vide houses for the newcomers. Inded,
the Willamette Valley needs new dwell

needs new hotels to care for the pres
ent volume of travel and later for the
crowds that will come here to attend
the Lewis and Clark Fair."

LECTURE AT Y. M, C, A,
Yolney B. Cashing of Bangor, Ka., Qlvee
Hotable Address Yesterday After
noon on Evils of Brink.
At yestet-day afternoon's meeting of
the Y. M. C. A. an address was given
by Volney B. Gushing of Bangor, Me
In the morning he preached aJL-the First
Baptist Church, and In the evening he
talked at the Taylor-street M. E. church
The subject of the speaker's Y. M. C. A,
address was "The Desecration of the
Temple." In this lecture he dealt a
great deal on the evils of the drink
traffic. He said in part:
There seems to be something strange
and uncanny in the spell which the
liquor traffic has cast upon the puMlc
mind. The hypnotists have taught us a
great deal about the law of suggestion.
snd I sometimes fancy that the liquor
traffic Is a sort of a colosssl hypnotist
that f.lla the public mind with adverse
suggestions. I have seen a lad hypno
tised and told that he could not open
his eyes, and lie couldn't: that he could
not put his arm down, and he couldn t:
that ho was Insensible to pain, and a
hatpin was thrust through" his flesh
without discomfort. It would seem ss
if the liquor traffic had Induced hpy
nosis in the people and had said: You
can't put qhe saloons down,' and they
can t. 'You can t see the need of pro
hibition," and they can't. You are In
sensible to the pain and suffering of the
liquor traffic' and they are. Great Is
the power of alcoholic suggestion. A
hypnotist can give his subject a spoon
ful of pepper and tell him that It Is
sugar, and he smacks his lips as ir It
were. Or saturate a handkerchief with
ammonia and tell him It Is cologne, and
he Inhales It as If it were.
"The llouor traffic ought to die. the
liquor traffic 'must die, the liquor traffic
shall die. Think this, say this; think
this often, say this often. The church

By far the largest set at Shield's
Park last night wss that of Mr. and
Mra. Francellla. They came laat on
the program, but nothing better haa
been seen in tha way of muscular art
than the feats performed by this re
markable pair of atrong people. There
Is sn alleged 260-pound dumbbell that
enters Into the scheme of entertainment.
and probably not a dosen persons in the
sudience believe thst the ponderous
thing weighs snything like the number
of pounds credited to it. That Is they
do not believe It at first, but when Mrs.
Francellla. who surely tips the scales
at more than 200 Is lifted snd balanced
by her atrong lord and maater, atf
though she is an Infant, then exerybody
begins to believe that th. dumbbell has
just claims of its own. It is a great
act and Sandow never did better.
Running down the program appears
Mr. Slmms, the humorist and cartoonist.
He is very clever, and while he might
fix up his voice, it Is certain that his
comic sketches and the work that goea
with the making of them could not be
improved very largely.
A cute little aoubrette and afterwards
a contortionist is a nice entertainer.
This little lady, under the name of
Marjorle Mandevllle, makes up so well
that everybody likes to look at her. She
Is young, fslr and fetching, both In
feature and form.
Hunt's dog and monkey show is cap
able as ever. The boss monkey needs
a little more training probably, but th
dogs do not, neither does Professor
Hunt.
Morris and Walton do a very credit
able comedy sketch. It is discouraging
to the audience when this tesm first ap
pears on the stage for it is not believed
that they can make good, but after five
minutes work thlnga change and as
whole, their sketch entitled "A Tip on
the Races" Is a winner.
The Campbell Brotners ars better
than ever and so far as club swinging
goes they are the limit in excellence.
The illustrated songs and moving pic
tures are very acceptable and add value
to a very enjoyable show.
