Dr. and Mrs. TJnderwod are medical
missionaries under the American board,
of the Congregational church. Besides
the medical work they have charge of
a large school at Esoroum-J After the
terrible massacre, when so many chil
dren were left , helpless and orphaned,
the school was able to take In many of
the children through money .contributed
from England and America. These
funds have now been . exhausted and
the poor children who have been coming
there for refuge will have to be turned
out unless help is Immediately forth
coming., . ' -.
"It is dreadful to think of." said Mrs.
Judson, "these oor helpless children
must be sent away some Of them, per
haps, to die of starvation. The furies
themselves will not give them shelter
they have all they can do to support
themselves, as they , are pitlf ull poor.
The missionaries have all they-can do,
constantly trying to arbitrate- between
the people and the government, and
must say they" arc the finest people I
ever knew. It is a l'fe of constant self
sacrifice and consecration.
Ufa of Turkish Women.
"The Turkish women are the most
oppressed,", continued Mrs. Judson.

hard is put upon her, and until a
younger bride comes into the family
she is under the constant supervision
of her mother-in-law and the mother-in-law
Is generally a terror.
"The marriage Is arranged by the
parents' or the nearest relative, and .the
poor bride has nothing, whatever to ay
about It
"One bride I knew of met her future
husband on Friday. They were en-
5 aged on Saturday and married on Mon
ay. Sometimes, of 'course, there Is
an attachment between the husband and
wife, but If so it must all come after
marriage. And they are married very
young, some of them at 13 years of
age. After a younger bride comes into
the family ehe is permitted to have a
home of her own, and when her son
marries of course the children grow
up soon she has some one to wait upon
her. There is a pleasant social life
among the consulates in the cities near
the coast Representatives of every
country mingle and all are kind to the
Americana. If the missionaries live
near they are included. In these gather
ings and hsre the pleasure of meeting
their own sort, but it is only once In
a. while, for the missionaries cannot
support the same style as the consul.
"one of the most delightful women
I met was the wife of the governor of
the valley of Ezoroum. We talked
through an "Interpreter, as she was a
Greek, but also Mohammedan. Her
husband 'Was a Turk. She sometimes
dressed In Parisian fashion, as stylish
ly as could be, and sometimes wore a
long Persian wrap over her Parisian
dress.
"Tha governor and his wife were
muoh attached to each other, and . he
had bat the one- wife, although Turks
are permitted to have four."

Visit to Harem.
Tes, said - Mrs.- Judson. T attended
a soiree at tha home of a Persian where
the harem women , were permitted to
look through a screen at the festivities.
Then 1 received an Invitation to go in
side,, and they showed ma every kind
ness. , They sat on the floor and made
tea. and x served little wafers; dainty
candies and-' fruits. - Always candles
and tea are served. The Turks serve
coffee, made lit their own fashion, and
usually a preserve mad of rose leaves.
It is pleasant, yes. A servant comes
in with a platter on which is a Jar
of tha preserve, a spoon and a glass t
water. Tha guest is supposed to take
a spoonful of the preserve and then
?ut the spoon into the water. Then
he next Is served. It would be . a
great breach Of etiquette not to serve
some sort of refreshment Even the
missionaries follow tha custom of the
country." .
"Are tha ' women happy?" "Tea, I
think so. They seem to get on nicely

there. One of the harem women chat

Wooden Caps "Prescribed.
"It Is worse In the Interior for the
women than on the ooaat The people
are wretchedly poor. The women wear
a wooden cap with a cloth around the
face and another over the lower part
of tha face, ao that only the eyes are
visible, and they have a ring in the
nose. Their dress is a long robe over
the straight trouaers such as the Chi
nese women wear, and a straight apron.
"The causa of their poverty oh, the
misrule of the country. It is aa rich
land as one would see anywhere, and
there is plenty of water, but the taxes
are so heavy, and they have so llttla
to do with, that they have only enough
to support ' life. They are liable at
any time to a raid from the soldiery
ordered, by the government, who seize
their food .and drive them out upon
the plains. ' even in the- snow.i One
morning, when I heard a noise I went
out in front of the school and there
was a strange . mob, of woman and
children, mostly half naked and crying.
I called the doctor and be came out
oh, he said "another raid on the vil
lage. These poor people had been robbed
or everything they had. The best they
could do was to make their way to
other villages and get help.
Country Undeveloped.
"The missionaries are doing what
they can, and those who are educated
In the Christian schools go out and try
to help their - countrymen but you
would call it almost hopeless. The
Turks dare not acknowledge that they
are Christians. They are not allowed
to develop their country, even though
it Is rich In minerals, as much of it
Is,
"Everything Is done In the most
primitive manuner. They drive oxen
and buffalo in their carts with heavy
wooden wheels." Mrs. Judson toid of

went to Eioroum. Laughing she re

- ..-h :
p After doing everything - but - Snail

Automatlo flr Alarm , company, tho
councilman received a request for a
franchise -from tha American- District
Telegraph company asking for a similar
franchise and agreeing to gtv tha city
one -third of the gross receipts, whereas
the National Automatlo company jp greea
to furnish but 1 per cent. Tha A. T.
company also agrees to fix tha maxi
mum price' for ' box, rentals at $2 a
month Instead of $4 a month as pro
vided for in the National franchise.
Councilman Bennett , lntroduoed the
ordinance yesterday by request, and the
councilman had several distinct thrills
and trembles .upon Its : introduction.
There has been a great deal of opposi
tion to the National Automatic Fir
Alarm company's franchise on the
frround that It would eventually result
n one of tha richest franchises In the
city. The opposition asked that tha
company be required to Install Its sys
tem on Its own wires and not on tha
wlrea of the city firs department.
At the present time the franchise of
the National company is being adver
tised, the last step to be taken before
Anally granting the concession. Inas
much as the city would derive greater
revenue from the A, D. T. company It
la probable that It too will receive a
franchise, although the councilman may
decide to require both companies to install-their
systems on wires separate
from tha city wires. The A. D. T. com
pany already has many wires strung
about the city and the expense of com
pleting its system would be compara
tively slight to that which the Na
tional company would have to meet to
compete with the A. D. T, company.
STOP ON FAB SIDE
OR SAY WHY, PLEASE
Members of tho city council want the
Portland Railway, Light & Power com
pany to return to the old way of stop
ping streetcars on the far side of the
street instead of the near side. The
councllmen voted, upon motion of Coun
cilman Baker, seconded by Councilman
Vaughn, to -request the'-company either
to return to the old method or give a
reason why.
The chief complaint against the pres
ent practice comes from women who are
forced either to walk through the mud
to the rear platform or to clnmber on
the front platform, where they have to
open the heavy doors and raise the cur
tain in order to get to their seats.
aa I drew near the place Serope beggeJ
me not to go. He said, 'The doctor
will be very angry if you go there.'
I laughed at him and went on, for I
could see no reason why I should not
walk up a hillside If I wanted to. Then
looking back I saw a soldier following
me, then another Joined In, and soon
there was another. Serope became
very much excited and fairly pleaded
with me not to go. Weill, I gave it up,
and learned afterward that it Is agulnst
the law for anyone to go nrur a fort
or to make any sort of a picture of
any walls, embankments or forts. But
do you know, for as much as three
months, every time I left the house
two or three soldiers followed me
everywhere I went. After awhile they
became convinced that I was harmless
and so they let me alone."
CLEARED AWAY
Proper food Put the Troubles Away.
Our own troubles always seem more severe
than any others. But when a man Is unable
to aat even a light breakfast, for years, with
out sever distress, he has trouble enough.
It la small wonder ha likes to tell of food
which cleared away the troubles. -

a N. H. man. ."For many years I was una

great suffering.
"After eating I would suddenly be eeised

the Honorable Mayor and Council
of the City of Portland Gentlemen: In
the matter of the preparation of plans,
etc., for a proposed bridge to take the
place of the present Madison street
bridge, I wish to make the following
report:
In pursuance of authority granted by
your honorable body, J. fe. C. Lock
wood was employed as consulting engi
neer, and one of the first questions was
to decide on what streets to end the ap
proaches. Hawthorne avenue being a main thor
oughfare for the east aide and wider
than the ordinary street, makes it the
most suitable location for the east end
of the bridge.
East Clay. East Market and East Mill
atrects estnd in a straight line only as
far as East Twelfth street, where thev
.'ntersect Laad's addition, the streets of
which do not conform, so that the travel
has to turn to the right or left
On this account Hawthorne avenue is
also preferable. On the west side,
should the approach be changed from
Its present location on Madison street,
it should be moved to Jefferson street
The objection to Columbia or Clay
street would be the serious interference
with the Southern Pacific terminal
yards.
In the event of it being deemed advis
able to construct A hlph bridee. Jeffer
son and Second streets is the proper
place for the west end.
This would permit of head room for
the streetcars on First and Front
streets. The bridge ending on Haw
thorne avenue, at Union avenue at the
east end., would safely clear the tracks
on East Water, East First and East
Sscond streets.
roar Flans Considered.
There are practically four clans pre
pared by Mr. Lock wood, viz.: First
High britigo from Jefferson and Second
streetn to Hawthorne and Union ave
nues, with east arid west approaches of
pteel and concrete; estimated cost
t.1,000,000.
Seme bridge with pile trestle ep
proaches. $610,000.
Second High bridge from Jefferson
n& Second streets to Hawthorne avenue
and East Water street with approaches
of teel and concrete. 1815.000.
8nm5 brilee with pile trestle ap
proaches, SBftn.000.
Third Bridge from Madison and
Front streets to Hawthorne avenue at
Union avenue, "vlth approaches-of steel
and concrete, $S"0,000.
Same bridge with pile treitle ap
pioachea. $600,000.
Fourth : Bridge from Madison and
Front streets to Hawthorne avenue and
East Water etreet, with approaches of
Eieei ana concrete. j(uu,unu.
Same brldfte with pile trestle ap
Brooches. I650.0OO.
Substituting timber grillages In the
river piers ror that part or the concrete
below low water will reduce the amount
of each of the above estimates $ 50,000.
The proposed bridge from Madison
street to Hawthorne avenue would bo

The proposed bridge from Jefferson

WATER AND LIGHT
SYSTEM FOR NEWPORT
. (Specisl Dtapatch . to Tbe Journal.)
Newport, Or., May 21. If present
plans are carried out a special election
will be called soon In Newport for the
purpose of voting bonds for a water and
electric light system. The disastrous
fire of New Year's night, which de
stroyed several buildings and endan
gered the entire buainesa part of. the
town, has made the citizens feel that
adequate fire protection Is a neccsstty
while the fact that in the summer sea
son thousands of temporary residents
come to Newport makes proper lighting
ol tne place almost equally essential.
Mayor Bensell has proposed that a
special election bo called for the pur
pose of voting bonds, and the movement
nas met with sucn unanimous support
that it appears probable that the elec
tion will be hardly more than a matter
