"f OTHERS INCLINED TO 8TUDY THEORY Soma Declare It Another Outbreak of Chicago University Eccentricity 'Rib Story in Geneila Xa Defended aa Logical, Beautiful and True, Tha vlewa of Professor W. L Thomas of Chicago university on tha order of tba creation of man and woman, as re viewed la Friday night's Journal, have attracted tha attention of tha clergy of tha city and will doubtless be tha text at several sermons before long. Vex! oua terms such as "unique," "original.' "sensational" and soma lass flattering have been used by tha ministers in speaking of tha professed ideas of the Chicago scholar who Is head of the chair of aoclology at Chicago university, - Professor Thomas claims that woman Is the natural superior of man rather than tha Inferior or oven a mere equal. He believes that sha waa created nrst as the master and that there Is no basis for the rib . story given in Genesis. Woman Srst domesticated animals and began her domestication, with primeval man who did not want to stay at noma. and It Is tha middle an it higher classes that have since given her an Inferior position. In addition to these views ha holda that women who lead fast Jjlvee make uncommonly good wives, and that education is a remedy xor woman s secondary position. it na means ny tnat," saia Dr. s. Mucklsy of the First Christian church, those who live immorally, I cannot see how ha could make such a statement; but ha may. mean those woman who at tain to remarkable intelligence and so oast aside their Inferior state. Of course the more intelligent woman al ways makes a better wife, but you can not aay that of one who lives a fast life and I do not believe ha haa any data for such a statement. The whole article. I believe, ia some mora Chicago university eccentricity cropping out. There are a certain number- of men there who say and seek to say such things regularly. , For my part I cannot sea why thi Bible story might not as wsU be accepted aa his. But tha Chris tian religion does not hinge on that story at all but on tha love of Jesus Christ, 'The rib story has nothing to do with tbs essentials and It is not neces sary to take It literally. The account in Oanesls is rather allegorical than scientific. I have no objection to giving woman the position of superiority over man, but sha does not crave It, So why not let her remain his equal, profes sor. Thomas has attainsd to another piece of sensationalism. Ha evidently wanted to vary from the traditional Ideas and ha haa dona It In an original manner." ' ' - What Br. Souse Bays, Dr. B. I Housa of tha First Con gregational church looks st tha quea- tlon from tha Standpoint ofan inter ested listener who wants to lsarn. "It is only an hypothesis, of course," ha said, "but a very Interesting' one. "At any rata if it does nothing mors It seta us to thinking. Of course tha review gives an Inadequate Idea of the artlolo written In the American Journal 0 Sociology, but be undoubtedly must have something . to substantia ta his statements wnloh Is not gtvfe hero. After all It makes no vital difference which came first; It does not materially changa conditions but it is a matter of latereat" "It Is merely an attempt to be smart." waa Dr. Clarence True Wilson's vordtot "Of oouroa there are always two inter. pretatlone to tha aortptural etotiee the literal and nguratrv mere le always dancer la the tws extremes tha s lupus who disclaims everything in tha Bible and tha man whotakea poetry literally. Aa a prose poem tha story of the crea tion of man and woman haa never been excelled in literature, and tha old story with Its modern Interpretation is just aa useful now aa ever." - ' Old toxy Xjogioatj Says abort, ' - Dr. F Bnrgette Short read tha review of tha antiole and said: "I can give neither a fair nor an adequate erltloism of Professor Thomas' declarations be cause of tha lnaufflolent report of his lecture which ia said . to have -appeared in the American Journal' of Sociology. However, tha old Bible story, of . the creation of man seems as logical and common-sense aa' tha recent declaration accredited to Professor. Thomas. . The other things referred to by the learned man aa reported and submitted to me ar too nonsonelesi and ridiculous for sarlous thought." .'And with a laugh ha added that it would pay some people a great deal better to go to near his own lecture on the "Passion Play" tonight than to give attention to such stuff. Rev. H. C Shaffer of tha United Brethren ohurah protested his willing' ness, or rather eagerness, to give the women a compliment whenever ha could. but in this ease tha statement made seemed so rldloulous. "Women are deserving of far mora credit than thay get, I . am aura, but they are apparently men's equals and tha story of Adam and Eva aa it stands. or as amended by Professor Thomas, does not changa their equality. The old Bible story answers all our pur poses very satisfactorily aa It stands. and without any of Thomas' views, given ror notoriety. , . BRUIN AT PRESENT .

From, the Dock Before the find of the Month. When the steamer George W. Elder again gets into her element aha will be able to churn the water with greater rapidity than before because hsr steam will be generated from oil fuel Instead of coal J. H. Peterson yesterday award ad a contract to ths 6t Johns Shipbuild ing oompany to Install oil furnaces, ths work to commence at onca so aa to have them ready for use aa soon as tha ves sel is lowered from tha dock. The plant will cost In tha neighborhood of flg,000. , At the time ha raised tha radar from the rock at Oobla, Mr. Peterson prom- isea tnat no would maae the abandoned and dilapidated passenger boat a much better -vessel than sha waa. before aha mat with tha mishap that took bar oft tha Ban Francisco run; and Indica tions now are that sha will probably be turned out a better vessel than when (lrst launched from the ways at Ches ter, Pa., in 1874. In thosa days ships wer strongly constructed, but modern appliances of today were then not even conoelved and with these equipments In stalled there Is nothing to hinder her owners from making ona of tba finest craft on the coast. The material for tha : hull has now arrived - and Ironworkers are busy piaomg the new piatee. Tha ribs and keel hava been placed In position and the plates are being riveted on at the rata of from five to seven a day. The Intention waa to have tha Elder off the dock by the 22d of this month, but It waa ascertained yesterday that aha can not possibly bo floated before tba 17th. in the meantime a large force of ma chinist Is at work overhauling the ma chinery and woodworkers and painters will soon beput to work to trim the upper worts. The-vepslrtng of tha Elder here means the distribution of many thousands of dollars and considerable Indignation was expressed yesterday when it was learned that complaint had bean made to tha Fort of -Portland because the dock was being. used for long Jobs.' It is said that had ths Elder been towed away to soms other port for repairs a great howl would have been set up be cause the work would not have been dona here. ' ,.
