Little Rock, Ark.. Oct. 15 The Rev.
Bm Jones, evangelist of Cartervtlle.
Qeorgta. died of heart failure on the
east-bound Rock Island train this morn
ing at Parry, Arkansas. Hla family
was with hlra at the time.
The body was brought to an under
taker in (hla city.
Sam Jonea. one of the greatest evan
gsliata of hla time, ta dead, and thou
sand of men and women all over the
country will be saddened by the news.
A great master of the platform, -he
devoted his life to helping and uplift
ing mankind. He reached all claaaea,
but hla greatest Influence was among
the common people. He waa not always
polished, not because he couldn't be, but
because he ohoee the mode of appeal
that would e moat effective with hla
hearer. Bam Jonea waa a ootnmoo
man among com men men, and In this
way gained the powerful Influence that
enabled him to make more convert
than any other evangelist.
He waa master In the art of putting
things so that they would stick In the
mind. Hla Illustrations were apt and
pointed, and his style was unique.
If true oratory Is shown in its power
to hold and Interest a great crowd, then
Jones waa an orator. Re waa also a
reformer, and had the courage of hla
epnvlcUons.
Bam Jonea was born In Alabama, Oc
tober K, 1147. His father waa a law
, yer. and he was also admitted to the bar.
Aa a young man be Was wild and a
drinker, but at the deathbed of hi
father he became converted. He gave
up the practice of law and became a
traveling preacher of the Meth6diat
Episcopal Church South In 1171.
He built up the church of which he
later became pastor, and added mora
members during his first year than
.had been added at any previous time,
but the charge of one pastorate was too
small for a m.tn of Bam Jonea' industry
and ability, and he concluded that he
could he of more uaa to the world If he'

Literary Work

and Fifty Dollars Each.
The most azpansive and the moat ex
tensive work ever published In this
country Is to be put forth by Bdward
8. Curtis of Seattle, who la at present
in Portland on a visit. This daring
author is a western man who has given
the batter part of hla life to the study
of a hobby which has become too seri
ous to be longer termed a hobby. At
the price of f 3.000 a aet for SO volumes
at 1160 each one' can get a small idea
of the value this work Is to have for
the future. Sponsored by aueh men as
President Roosevelt, who pronounces It
"a monument to Amerloan constructive
scholarship and research of a value
quite unparalleled." and by John Pler
pont Morgan, who has such faith tn fta
greatness and value that he has made
an advance subscription for tt acta,
which means t70,000, to help cover the
Immense expense of field work. It
cannot fall to have Its success.
Picture the writer of this work
spending from If to II years in camp
life collecting material, engaging moat
of the time from three to ten assist
ants, spending over 1260,000 In the col
lection of field material only, and cov
ering enough space between himself
and hla assistants to encircle the globe
70 times, and you will have some Idea
of the magnitude of the work. Then
conceive a work consisting of SO vol

and several hand-colored plates, to

taining 700 large pictures and SO etch

neric, which has been loading at the
Tlctorla aplasias, had decided to dis-
Wtsh the Services of Brown ft alo
ind to put a crew of anion long-
so work at oaoe.
The resolution of Longshoremen's un
ion No. 26, to boycott Brown a McCabe.
Portland's Arm of employing stevedores,
the news of which waa published exclu
sively In The Journsi yesterday morn
ing, was carried out to the letter to
day. Aa a usual thing, S00 or more un
ion longshoremen go to work every day
under the direction of Brown a McCabe,
but this morning not -one showed up at
the regular time. As a result, activity
on' at least a dosen ocean-going vessels
waa absolutely suspended. Today the
tteup la easily four times as serious as
it has been at any previous time atnee
the beginning of the waterfront trike
three weeks ago.
The longshoremen's headquarters on
North Front street waa lammed with
husky workmen today, but there were
still more of them out tn the rain, not
working, but "doing strike duty," aa It
Is termed by the unionists. The water-
rront was completely picketed and pa
roled. Bealdes 100 or more striking
graiahandlers, there were 160 longshore-menwas-oh
one being assigned to his
certain "work" by union officers, who
were- in perfect control of them. To
more thoroughly picket the strike dis
trict, three gasoline launches were char
tered. These patrolled all day up and
down the river front
Purpose of Picketing. .
The purpose of the picketing, ss set
forth by Secretary Hall this morning.
Is not to create trouble or to offer vio
lence to any one, but to keep fully In

stantly of any sudden move on the part
of the enemy, and to prevent by "moral
suasion" any nonunion men from going
to work.
The tienp today is practically com
plete as far aa Brown a McCabe are
concerned. ' There was no attempt what

Miss Helen Sumner Declares
Men and Women Have No Po

(Journal aeHal Serriee.)
Denver, Oot. 15. "Neither women nor

This was the startling statement
made by Kiss Helen Sumner, who has
been sent to Denver by the Collegiate
League of Equal Suffrage of New Tork
to study the elective system aa it Is
In operation In Colorado.
"Since I have been In Denver." con

many women, as well as man. who are
engaged In the political game. I have
come to the cohcluaton that when the

that the report t shall send back to

I find that nearly half of the votea cast

n. Oot. II. The religious cere
mony which united Bertha Krupp. the
richest girl fn tbe world J22S.000.000
Is said to be the extent of the fortune
and 111.125.000 her annual Income to
a comparatively poor youth. Lieutenant
von Bohlen und Holbach, took place to
day In the beautiful chapel that had
bean especially erected on the estate of
the cannon builder for the purpose.
The olvU ceremony which made bar
by law Frau von Bohlen und Holbach
took, plana, aa. Saturday. Today's cere
mony is that of the church, which la
needed to bind the contract religiously.
Instead of having the ceremony per
formed at her magnificent eaatle of
Huegel she decided to be married here,
where her father made hla fortune as
a manufacturer of cannon, and, meat
appropriately, the great German war
lord, the kaiser, waa present.
The appearance of the kaiser at the
wedding Is a part of the pretty ro
mance. It was tbe emperor's wISh that
tbe mistress of ttasen, wbeh la actually
a part of Germany's military power,
should wed a man of means and sta
tion. When he waa Informed of Miss
Krupp's choice he registered the Im
perial objection, but Miss Krupp want
to aee him, told hlra plainly that hor
chdios waa Irrevocable and that she In-
tended to marry the man of her heart's
desire and not a political selection. The
kaiser gave way and has taken tbla
method of publicly showing he has for
given the young couple.
Deaplta the presence of the kaiser,
who stood at the altar la the magnifi
cent uniform of a field msrshal of the
German army, simplicity wss the key
note of the wedding. The bride wore a
simple costume of lilac crepe de chene
and but two pages bore her train.
The brides only attendant was her
sister Barbara, who la to be married
In a few months.
After the ceremony, which oecuplod
but a few moments, the kaiser kissed
the bride en both cheeks and at the
wedding breakfast proposed tbe bride's
health, after a long speech In which he
eulogised her father, whose (friendship,
he said, had been one of the pleasant
things of his life. ,
Following the banquet the bride
placed a wreath on the bust ' of her
great-grandfather, who waa a village
blacksmith, and whoso smithy still
stands among the great Krupp works.
Among Miss Krupp's presents to ths
groom waa an unconditional annuity of
SI 00.900.
The Krupp works In Essen were

and Union Men Sug
gesting Arbitration
Declares Peace of the Com

portant Matter Than Any Con
tention Union Men Board
Ship and Harass Workmen.
Mayor Lane Is today taking the first
step toward ending the gralnhandlers
strike by arbitration.
This afternoon he Is sending letters
to the exporters, as well aa the grain-
handlers. In which he suggests the for
mation of a board of arbitration which
will try to dissolve the tteup of tha
Portland waterfront.
T bold that tbe psaee of the com
munity at large Ts a more Important
matter than any contention between
these two sides," sstd the mayor today
as he waa drawing up the letter.
"With this strike In progress de
mands ere made for policemen, and tha
city as a whole Is liable to suffer be
cause too many policemen are on the
docks. This la my reason for suggest
ing a board of arbitration, and I am
explaining It to those Who will receive
the letter.
gnggestlona of the Mayor.
"My Idea is that each aide appoint
one 'man and these two men select a.
third, and that the three men hear all
sides and attempt a settlement between
the two forces."
The determination of the mayor to
mske this suggestion Is partially caused
by the meeting Saturday afternoon,
when the representatives of the dock
owners snd exporters asked for addi
tional police protection on the dookal
and tbe delegates of tha unions in
sisted that such action rwaa a reflec
tion upon their motives. The Saturday
meeting was called for a discussion of
the police phase of tbe strike question,
but the arbitration Idea waa than evi
dently suggested to the mayor, and be
fore the end of tbe day tha letters to
both sides will be In the malls.
Indications that the proposition foe)
arbitration will be acted upon favorably
by tha unionists. Aa to the Exporters
association, there Is soma doubt. When
apprised of the contents of Mayo
Lane's letter D. P. Hall, the union anas
rotary, aald:
"While I eannot apeak positively for
the Waterfront Federation, I am of
the opinion that tba organisation will,
aet favorably upon any fair proposi
tion to arbitrate. It will certainly oon
alder any such a propSsttlon without
delay."
W. J. Burna said:
"This la a very Important matter ana
I do no, feel like committing; tba Ex
porters' association upon it until w
have time to oonalder It carefully."
