; night, given by the business men of
Oregon City. The banquet was held In
'Willamette hall, which wa decorated
iwlth Oregon grape for the occasion.

the hall and three other tables ran from
this down the full length of the hall.
There were 125 covers laid, and they
were about all taken. It was a $1 a
.plate affair, and all received their mon
ey's worth.
When the men assembled to the feast
, the hall was In darkness. Some acci
dent had happened In the electrio plant,
and the town was in darkness. In a
short time the hall was lighted with gas
lamps and. the old-fashioned candles and
. the men filed Into the hall and began
-talking and taking their places' at the
, tables. The' scene was a very brilliant
.one. and when the banquet had started
Photographer Turney secured a flash
light picture of the company.
The guests represented every class
of business transacted in the city. The
j representative lawyers, doctors and den
! tlsts of Oregon City were there. All the
j business men of. the city were In attend
iance. The grocery men and furniture
J dealers, and other men in various kinds
: of business vied with each other In mak
ing the affair a booming success. The
'ministers of the city wer in attendance
'and their presence added much to tho
Importance of the gathering.
- Mayor Grant B. Dlmlck filled the posi
tion of toastmaster with his accustomed
good humor. He has a fund of keen
wit, and it never appeared to more advan
tage than last night Many of the men
who responded to toasts can- testify to
this, as his introductory speeches were
I adorned with a little home truth and
cutting wit that went to the hearts of
the talkers and their listeners.
The banqueters had all been seated
land Master of Ceremonies Dlmlck called
'on the Rev. J, H. Wood to ask the bless
ing for the 'evening. Rev. Wood, 'In a
'.few well-chosen and solemn words,
asked the Divine Ruler to place his
' blessings on' the citisens there gathered.
- The destruction of good things com
menced and at about :S0 o'clock the
toast-making began.
. Mayor Dlmlck arose and explained the
object of the banquet for business men,
and the Idea of the board of trade. He
Bald that the board of trade would ma
terially add wealth to the city's reve
nue, and that the banquet was a means
of getting the men together and listen
ing to different Ideas. He then Intro
duced the first speaker of the evening,
Hon. X T. Apperson.
Honorable Apperson's topic waa 'The
Old Town." He told of the appearance
of Oregon City In an early day. and
'dwelt eloquently on the deeds of Dr.
'John McLaughlin: Mr. Apperson said
he came here In 1847, and had seen the
city grow much and predicted it would
grow more in the coming years. When
J, T. Apperson came" toOregon"CTty
there was not much of a town, all the
rest was fir trees. He alluded with much
feeling to the old Inhabitants, and ln-clos-ing
the entire company drank to their
memory, standing. Three cheers were
given for Mr. Apperson.
"Ths Taylor Trio" then sang a song.
The trio are -three youngsters from the
Arcade theatre, and have sweet voices.
They have just been engaged by the
Republicans of Portland to sing in the
campaign for the next four months. Dr.
Carll, a dyed-in-the-wool - Democrat,
aid he did not like that, but eould
"guarantee them a four-years' contract j
from the Democrats after the next elec
tion." Much applause greeted the doc
tor's sally.
Colonel R. A. Miller was the next
speaker, and he talked on the "Native
. Bon." The colonel is a native son and
Ms talk and address was. one of the
best things listened to daring the even
ing. He read a paper that was a mas
terpiece, and when he- was finished he
was applauded to the echo.

PORTLAND HIGHBINDER
: IN NEFARIOUS WORK
(Journal Sperlsl fcrl-e
Albany, Or., Feb. 26. The local
Chinatown was In a state of high ex-
Vltement last evening over an 'attempt
to kidnap sveral small children of the
lata Ban Wa, a Mongolian laundryman,
who died a few wepks ago. A Portland
Chinaman and A Chlnene woman from
the same city have been stopping In
Chinatown ever since the death of Ban
Wa, and the Utters widow has made
complaint several times that she feared
that her children would be sold Into
slavery by the pair from Portland. Very
little .attention, however, was paid to
her misgivings, as U did not appear pos
sible that such a high-handed outrage
.would be attempted. Mrs. Ban Wa snd
her brother continued to operate the
laundry owned by the deceased, and as
they had many friends, they have suc
ceeded In making a living. Last even
ing affairs reached a crisis when the
Portland heathens offered the mother
$500 each for her Ave daughters and de
manded that tho money be accepted. H
went so fsr as to threaten that in tho
event that the offer was refused he
would tske the girls from her without
a price. He wsa aseisted in terrorising

and his was the speech of the evening.
His topic "Pull Together,"- was sep
c tally appropriate. He remarked In very
forcible words that tha entertainment
of the evening would be intellectual. He
was heartily In favor of anything that
denoted progress for this city, and held
up tha Seattle people as an example of
"pull together." "We can do nothing
unless we pull together," ha said. "We
can do very little pulling unless we
have the push' behind us. I had a
pull once and lost It Tha push' was
not behind It Wa must have harmony
and work as one man." Mr. Moore's
speech was hailed with delight and fre
quent applause. .
B. 8. Bollinger's subject was "Our
Boye.'VHe cited soma very pointed ex
amples and closed his talk with an ap
peal to the citizens to help along the
young men.
Gilbert L. Hedges was called and his
topic, "The Lewis and Chirk Fair," was
very ably handled. . Te related his ex
periences with eastern- people and their
Ignorance about tregon and advocated
more Interest In the coming fair.
J. E. Hedges and Dr. W. m Carll then
entertained the guests with the respec
tive overwhelming topics, "The Ethics
of the Medical Profession" and "The
Ethics of the Legal Profession." Their
treatment of the subjects was very
ludicrous and their talk was punctuated
with laughter. Dr. Carll said that the
lawyers, when at a gathering, were like
a German picnic. "Everyone calls the
other fellow a liar and there are no
casualties reported, but on the other
hand, when a crowd of doctors get to
gether It-la like an Irish picnic. When
the row starts It Is tlms to climb a
tree'
8enator George C Brownell was Intro
duced to talk on 'The Land of Prom
ises." Toastmaster Dlmlck wore a wag
gish look and introduced him aa "the
man of promises." The senator laughed,
but It was a home trust and the gather
lng finally composed Itself and listened
to one of the best short talks ever given
by Senator Brownell. His talk dealt
exclusively with the resources of the
county and the prospect In view.
Father Hillebtand responded to the
toast, "Sentiment." The father has a
very jovial personality and always talks
well and he made several "hits" that
were very well taken and to the point.
"He Who Runs May Read" was W. S.
URen's topic. He talked very ably on
tha needs of tha city -and county In the
way of general Improvement.
Hon. C. O. Latourette waa Introduced
and his toplo was "All Is Not Gold That
Glitters." There was a vein of dry
humor running all through Mr. Latour-
ette's speech that waa greeted with
bursts of applause wherever It made its
appearance.
A. S. Dresser was Introduced to talk
m "Org6ntansTHave "Found. but ,
Mayor Dlmlck seeing the error (?)
changed It to "Oregonlans as I Have
Found Them." He gave a very eloquent
address and waa followed by C. H. Dye.
E. H. Dye's subject was 'The Past
and Its Lesson." He advised a strongly
organised board of trade and harmony In
tha organisation.
H. F. Kelly followed with a brief out
line of "Civic Pride." He strongly ad
vocated the need of la beautiful park to
show to visitors. He was followed by
Judge T. F. Ryan, who spoke on 'The
City and County." Judge Ryan advised
the organisation of a board of trade and
said he would be one of the first to
buy stock. .... .
J. H. Westover was the last speaker
and his subject "The Stranger Within
Our Gates," waa very appropriate and
exceedingly well delivered. Mr. West-
over is a natural, talker. and possesses
a charm In talking that Is not often
heard. His speech ran be summed up In
few words: ."Welcome the stranger.

Sumpter, Or., Feb. 25. The manage
ment of the Big Creek placers in the
Susanvllle district have purchased from
tha Golden Wlxard company a hoist.
pumps and boilers, which will be trans
ferred to tha property at once. Mr.
Zimmerman of Portland, manager of the
placers, was here yesterday making ar
rangements for the transfer, and stated
that tha machinery would bo Installed
at once and work prosecuted on an ex
tensive scale during the coming season
The machinery, which Is now at mc
Ewen station, was purchased for . the
Golden Wizard, but after being used a.
few weeks was found to be of Insuffi
cient capacity to keep the shaft dry, so
a more powerful outfit was substituted.
The hoist has a depth capacity of o
feet which is more than is needed for
the filacer proposition. The shaft is now
down to bedrock, which was encountered.
at a depth or loo reet. witn me lneini-
latlon of the machinery and tne-coming

to carry on extensive drift work.
eduction riant for the Imperial. ,
Capt A. M. Paul, manager of the
Imperial lh the- Cable Cove district, re
turned yesterday from a two-weeks'
visit to Salt Lake City. It is the In
tention of the company, Captain Paul
says, to install a reduction plant aa soon
as pending litigation in the federal court
at Portland Is settled. The property haa
been held ud for some time by claim-
jumpers, but Captain Paul aays that he
has a strong case snd proposes to show
the jumpers where they stand. He says
that he will consider no sort of a com
promise, and that he Intends to fight the
case to a finish.
Mr. Paul says that he Intends to jput
In a small plant, one of about SO tons
daily capacity, and add to it according
to the needs of the property as develop
ment work la carried on. There Is suf
ficient ore in sight to keep a mill of this
size running for at least two years, but
it Is thought best to put in an inexpen
sive plant to begin with and expend
more money In development work, en
larging the mill as this seems to war
rant Mr. Paul says that the construc
tion of the mill will te started along
these lines just as soon as the pending
litigation Is settled.
Well Pleased With Storm Xing.
T. J. Costello, general mafiager; Dr.
F. W. Walters of Stevens Point, Wis., a
large stockholder, and W. J. Keogh came
In from tha Storm King, In the Cable
Cove district the last of the week.
Mr. Keogh accompanied the party to
tho property for tho purpose of making
a report thereon at the request of Dr.
Walt era Just what this report is, is
not known, but Mr. Walters says that
heJa aatlsfledhatJheJs getting a good
run for his money.
When seen, Mr. I
Keogh was very reluctant about giving
out the purport of his nndings, out
stated that in his opinion the Storm
King was the making of a mine, con
tinuing as follows:
The workings are now In ore car
rying good values. The ledge is a strong
one. being a true fissure vein, oi course,
the psoperty Is now in the development
stage, but tha showing is good, and
believe that It justifies extensive devel
opmeot Money and good judgment will
make It a producer.
Mr. Costello says that the doctor Is
as game a tenderfoot as ho ever took
Into the hills, with ten feet of snow. He
walked from the end of tho wagon road
to the mine, a distance of four miles,
on webs, without making a kick, or ex
pressing a regret that he was not In his
office back in Wisconsin. He also
mounted a paid of skees and shot down
tho mountain side 400 feet In aa many
seconds. When found by tho rest of
the party his feet alone were visible,
the rest of his ample length being
jammed headforemost Into a snow bank.
After being pulled out however, he
tried to look pleasant and declared that
he enjoyed the experience, but knew
when he had enough of a good thing,
and didn't cry for mors.

knows nothing of tho extent or value of
the body. Development at this property

Capt C. Stewart and two enlisted
men of the United States army recruit

TEU-TAUS FACES.
"In many's looks the false heart's his

U writ in moods and frowns and wrink

Like a mirror, the unsruarded faAial
expression tells tales of all that Is pass
ing within. The skilled eye reads at a
glance the passing thought. It should
be the slm bf every woman to nuitar
the expression of her face.
Expression Is the action of certain
muscles' of the face. Joy, sadness, lovS,
hate, fear or anger each calls Into olav
a sat of muscles. The habitual use of
one of these leaves on the countenance
marks which tells their own story.
Cultivate placidity of expression, and
rest sssured that there will be no dan
ger of vacancy of countenance Avoid
wrinkling, -your trow,, closing one eye,
frowning, sniffling, "turning up the
nose," thrusting the tongue Into the
cheeks) pouting, pointing the lips, purs

opening wldelx. the eyes, wagging the
head, grinning, or otherwise twisting or
contorting the features. It-means sure
damage to a pretty face, and is im-na.
