The entire timber .testing ex perimental work is in charge of Dr. W. K, Hatt, of the Purdue university. Professor I B. Hunt of the University of California Is In charge of the three stations on th Pacific coast: those of the University of California, University of Oregon and the University of Wash- . ington. The Oregon and Washington . stations are new stations, established for th study of the timbers of th western states. ' t .' Tht special work of the forestry ser vice at the ejtposition consists of the study of , the Douglas fir. sugar pine, western ..hemlock . and' California red wood. Host of the specimens tested In ' bending r th ordinary bridge string ers. These stringers ar txlt Inches, and II H feirt long. From. both ends, of very stringer tested ar cut two blocks, on to be tested in compression parallel to th fibers, and the other to be tested tn compression f perpendicular to th fiber. Two of these specimens ar test ed In cross bending, similar to the test performed on th large stringers.- From very stringer tested a moisture disk, one Inch thick. Is) cut. after which It IS dried out In an oven and ths percentage f moisture calculated. . - ' la this manner, the agriculture depart' raent Is enabled us determine th loss or gain In strength .due to the various per centage of molstcr in th timber., From the many- tests performed it has been ascertained that the strength of tim ber remains about uniform with .all a? grees of moisture above SO per cent, while below It per cent th strength In- j creases with the decrease of moisture. Timber . grown. on '. hills contains - con siderably less moisture than that grown ' on low lands. The Oregon fir will stand a weight of about 45,009 pounds on aa 8x1 beam, lltt feet span, which Is th standard brdg stringer.

Daw son, in eminent ionaon aivine, at a union meeting laat night of the congrth gations of the Flrst'Congregational and First, Presbyterian churches. Dr. Dawson Is the pastor of the- High bury Quadrant Congregational, church of London and was to have preached yes terday In th Auditorium at th Lewis apd Clark expostlon, but refused to par ticipate In services at 'th fair for th reason' that th Trail was- allowed to re main open on Sunday. Instead he con ducted two services at th First Pres byterian i church. Th subject of his discourse last night was, - "Surrender to Chrlat" . - , . ' '- ' "If to see Jesus meant only to sea in him a man of superior Intellectual at tainments, then the controversy between Christ snd th world would end," con tinued he. "If being a Christian means only that you are willing to acknowl edge the superiority of his Intellect, then Napoleon. Shelley and John 8tuart Mllr' were Christians for they admit ted this. Christ reveals th master principle of the world, self-sacrifice, and you cannot behold blm until you are willing to be crucified as he was crucified. - It not simply, ths crucifixion on the cross that he. damanda. Th greatest test Is -the death of. self-will and per sonal desires and pride. How few there would be of us who would meet th test If these doors should open and th lone. pale Naxaran appear . before us . to night I am Inclined to think his fol lowing 'would come largely from the rabble, the friendless and sinful. Just a It did in olden time. There ar too man J of .us who have accepted Christ without knowing what It means. ..Ton muat be willing to sell all and follow, him to give up the habits you Know are evil and the pleasures' you .know are tool. CHRIST THE CORNER-STONE. rather CXara rrsaobss) SMond Sernion -for Baa sgt ef woa-Oathollos. '. -At St Mary's cathedral last ueVenlng Father O'Hara preached the second of a series of sermons for th benefit of non- Catholics who wish to - understand ths teachings of the Cathollo . faith The subject treated was "Christ and His Di vine Mission;" c ' - -T ;- Father O'Hara said, in part: "In ths spiritual edifice of . Christian ity th ' chief corner-stone Is Jesus Christ. He it is who gives unity snd strength, purpose and harmony, to th entire structure. Hence In an inquiry Into the claims of ths church of Christ our first., step must be to satisfy our selves at th divine mission of Christ. , "Christ comes before us In, history ss the fulfillment of Inspired prophecy. He Is the realisation of the Messianic pre dictions recorded In the Old Testament. Ha corresponds to th description of the Messiah not merely In regard to the time and plac of his birth, but also In regard to ths salient features of. his character and life. - Prophet, king and priest waa the Messiah to be. Prophet, king end priest was Christ. Th Meestah was to be a Man of Borrowa. who was to be wounded for our Iniquities and by whose bruises we were to be healed. Chrisi was the Lamb of God. by whose desth w ar redeemed. . "But prophecy Is not our strongest proof for th divine mission of Chrlat. Our Lord Insisted upon his miracles aa unmistakable credentials of his divine embassy. When th Jews charged him with blasphemy - for making himself equal to God. he replied: 'If I do not the works of the Father, believe me not; but if I 'do, though you will not believe me, believe th works.' "From an evidential standpoint, the greatest of Christ's miracles was his resurrection. Few facts of history are supported by such complete and satis factory evidence as can be adduced for th fact of th resurrection of Christ from the dead. His death was testified to by the Roman soldiers; bis enemies secured the tomb with a Roman guard. On the third day after his death, his disciples found the tomb empty and dur ing the 40 days which followed fre quently saw snd spoke with .the risen Jesus. Even the skeptical Thomas had to yield to the evidence of his. senses snd acknowledge his Lord and his Ood. ' "Christ's claim, taken,, in connection with his character, furnish another proof for the divinity of Christ's mission. Th self-assertion of Christ would be the yery delirium of religious pride on the part of a mere man. 7 Yet who so bumble asChrlstT Who couUTb "less' susceptible of deceit than Christ who could proclaim to all ages, "For this was I born ' and for this cam I into, th world, that I , might bear testimony of the truth.'" . AT ROSARY CHURCH. Feast ef Most Holy moeaxy Celebrated by Pomlnloaa fathers. , The feast of th Most Holy Rosary was celebrated by the Dominican fathers at Rosary church. Union avenue and Clackamas street, yesterday. Masses were said st 0, 7. 1:30 and 10:30 a. m., ths latter celebration being th solemn high mass of th day. Rev. Father Lnwler. assisted by a deacon, subdeaeon and acolytes,, began th ma as, and the choir, assisted by. the , male enprus, sang "Ave "Maria." , The morning ser mon was delivered by Rev. Father O'Brien, and -waa based on the signifi cance of th Holy Rosary and Its pur pose, Roses were blessed and given to the worshipers and the morning sr Ice closed with the rosery procession In which all the congregation participated) - Mistaken. .

Cessation of I agitation relating to the delays ' at Portland drawbridges has wrought the usual result th recurrence Of the abuse and ths unnecessary de tention of streetcars and foot pasaengera By th brldgetenders. When The Journal- began th nubllca tlon of facts' pertaining to th matter week or two ago there waa a notice able Improvement In the manner tn which toe tenders handled the bridges. - The orders of the county court, -which for months had been virtually null and void, were more closely observed and th landsmen were not so often delayed un necessarily by too long Intervals In which ths bridges were kept open. - . Pending the-action by the war depart ment, the attention of which was called to the matter through Major 8. W. Roessler, engineer In charge her,- pub- lie mention was less frequent' and there waa an apparent ' ending . of the ' cam paign for betterment of th conditions. Major Roessler had taken up th issue with his chiefs In Washington and had promised to procure from the department some expression. Indicating .. Its at titude. But in the few days that hav elapsed" since the question' was referred through him to ths war department the former status has been renewed, and the conditions now are lltu If any better than they were. Now that th wet "weather has begun the delays at the drawbridges ar much more annoying than they were In the summer before the rains set tn and there are correspondingly loud demands for favorable aotlon by the authorities. It has been stated many times that the records of the four bridges show that the most of the delays are caused by the towing-boats, rather than by. the river steamers; that probably 78 to SO per cent of the time the draws ar open they ar swung to permit tugboats anq small craft to pass through. - It has been conclusively established, therefore, that the trouble Is not so much with the steamers that represent the heavy traffic of ths river, but with th boats that eould aa well as not adjust their move ments to the convenience of th public that - must cross the Wtllamett river going to and from work- East side people to tne number ei more than half th population. Of the city of Portland ar demanding relief from the regime that Is In vogue and are asking the county, stats arul federal officials to take up the matter and compel ob servance of th rights of the people who travel on- land by those who ar en gaged In river traffic. , RESIGNS PASTORATE OF UNITARIAN CHURCH Rev. George Croswell Cressey, pastor of the TJnltafTan church of ' thle city, yesterday morning announced that he had decided to resign his pastorate, th reata-natlon to take effect early -in Jan uary.
