"Despondency la known to most peo ple. - Most of ua have fits of depres sion at some time. There have been times when It seemed we were sur rounded with Impenetrable gloom. "Florence Nightingale . tells us that when on the way to the Crimea she heard sailors tell weird stories of birds with black wings and blus breasts which flew across the Black sea In stormy sea sons and which sometimes perched on the masts of ships but which had never " been caught On dark nights they could be found In the cypress trees of east ern graveyards mingling their doleful notes with the sighinsof the winds. They were birds of Ill-omen, loving that which was sinister and dark and their waitings were the mournful notes of the lost. ' '.' , "I take it that many of M know something of these birds with black wings and blue breasts. These dark fears and forebodings, doubts and dis tresses come trooping uo above the hori zon to mar the beauty of the sky above us and to chill ua With their dread presence. Mnt men have their solenetlc hours. If asked how we do we reply much as rtld Mr. Trepid. 'A great - deal - woree then I was,- thank'e: most dead, in obliged to you I'm always worse than I was, and I don't think I was ever any heuer. i m groins? on m days, right after my grandfather, dying of -nothing in particular, out 01 every thing In general. That's what finishes our folks.; There are times when these evil thoughts and promptings come ana we know not why; when friends seem to be harsh; when those who profess to love us seem to be unkind. Words- If yon ever have any doubt about the styles in dress, ask the hotel clerk, v If yon have any doubts about the beat show la town or the worst ask the clerk. If you want to know about the weather, consult the . hotel clerk. He knows even if the weather- man doesn't. The hotel clerk is the regular bureau of information. And In spite of all the abuse that he gets he is usually right. - But when It comes to the Question of cress mat is wnere ne snines tne Drlgnt est. There are obvious reasons for this. In the first place the hotel clerk is usu ally a well di eased man.. This Is part of tne proiession. He gets the opportunity r seems; all the latest st vies, sometimes long before they are on the market. This is accomplished by his varied acquaint an co among the travel in r men who sell everything from a pin to a full dress suit or a salad dressing, witn or with out tne lettuce. - Tne Hotel Clerk, The hotel clerk : is a close observer. He has to be. This is as necessary as being a good dresser. : And above all he is a pastmaster when It comes to read; lng human nature. very hotel clerk, being human, has a noooy. Liomm jxeynoias or tne .roruana wears a airrerem tie every aay. in aa dition, of course, be is somewhat of a dresser. But Louis' tiea are- the envy of the hotel. - All of hjs ties are expen sive, and besides they are selected with a taste that makes others wonder where he finds such a variety to select from Mr. Reynolds never wears the same tie twice, it is said, nut tnoae wno are In on the secret claim that Louis has such an assortment of neckwear that he never wears a tie that he has worn be fore until he is confident that even the closest observers . have rorgotten the color- and design. Then he wears it again. It is also said that there is no one person in Portland who has more cravats than Louis Reynolds, E - Carl Bword. also of the .Portland, for merly of the 6 1. Francis and the old Palace in Ban Francisco, Is also there when it comes to dress. Mr. Sword is best described as being a clean cut man. His hobby is hats. At. present he has a new style which as yet no one has been able to describe. But 'it's the latest, it la claimed. Mr.' Sword had the first green hat in Portland. Now he la fig uring , on getting one of those wide brimmed, flat-topped straws like John Drew wore when he was here a few weeks ago...; ' - ':.. Clarke's Cravat Ptna. . Nat Clarke of the Cornelius has cravat pins as his fad. : He seems to have an1 unlimited number of them. It has been rumored that Mr. Clarke has an arrange ment with soma leweler to furnish him with new stick pins every day and after they are worn Just once return them for outers, na wears every ama. rarge ana small, but he will never tell where he gets them. Mr. Clarke Is also fond of nrettv ties. He is not so particular, however, about changing them. . Borne times he wears the same tie two days in succession. But he is getting care less in the question of ties, it seems he has been in the hotel business more than 10 years. . .-.,.-. But Fred Bloch of the Oregon is prob ably the nobbiest dresser of all Port land's hotel clerks. There is a story going the. rounds to the effect that he nas a tailor wno noes aotning eise dui take care of his clothea Mr. Bloch ha so many suits, long suits and short suits and every other kind.' that it is id on good authority tnat ne nasn" any Idea as to the number - which . lie claims as hi own. Ana then there are the hotel clerks who are fond of jewelry. One of them Is Otto Metschan of the Imperial. Otto's long suit is jade. Several of hls'pins resemble turauoise but he ha the jade habit and claims that all the stones he wears, no matter what their, color, are real Chines Jade. Mr. Metschan can wear almost any color in ties or pine, however, on account of his complexion. It la fair and goes with any shade. Thompson's Diamonds. k A J,h. r A : IV.... : . 1.MMMa 4m.JVI .T c, 111, 1 a n 1 u uiamviiu, among the hotel clerks. George Thomp son of the Nw Perkins nas tne largest. He has had It for years. It is a dandy. It is in a ring. It is about three karats more or leas. And then Mr. Thompson has a fine watch and other articles of Jewelry all of which are always Deln gased at longingly ny nia guests an others who are fond of Ornaments. But in BDlte of all these hobbies and habits of the hotel clerks they are the men who know. They are the men who send the tourists to ell the daces of in terest and know more about Portland than many of the Portlanders who have lived here for year . . so. II you ever want to Know anrtnina about the trains, or anytbing or tnat sort that is uncertain, just call uo any or tne clerks in town, xney Know and thev will tell vou. On the Question of woman's dress the hotel' clerks are there, too. They are regular critiques. As none of them has seen the new directoire or sheath gown as vet all of them have refrained from expressing an opinion. , But you will near from them on this later. worth nulckfin us bv the 'Excursion and inspires us as be iinga of immor tality but tie tens us tnat sometimes he dreaded "the rustling of the grass and the Very shadows of the clouds' had power to shake him as he passed and that often 'au tna world appeared unkind.' .Comedian Was Despondent. When the great comedian Matthewa was convulsing- great audiences in Lon don with his jokes and rare wit. win ning the praise of the critics of the firess, a gentleman called upon a prom nent physician of the city and told him of the depression which haunted him and which threatened to destroy him. The physician listened and said, 'You have a bad case of morbidity, you ought to go and hear Matthewa the comedian.' 'Ah,' said the man. 'I am Matthews, the ' comedian. -'-'u. . "So to .most men these experiences come, and even . the 'Autocrat' once wrote: l iook more man waa gooa ior men While I was suffering from It, I wrote some sadly desponding poems, and a theological -essay which took a very melancholy view of crea tion. There is some very morbid and melancholy theologv in the world sim ply because some nave taken too much of something not good for them. I think our - sermons ought to be shot through occasionally with a lot of sun shine. -,i . ,..'. -. ( "Genius Is neither defense nor proof against the blues - Poor health may be the cause of despondency and fre quently some medicine, exercise and fresh air are effectual remedies. De eponden is not constructive. It is bad wherever found. Men do not often do great things when they have the - blues.' Despondency cuts the nerve of effort and Is the father of misery. It colors everything with a somber hue. It poisons the spirit of enterprise and defeats the will of organization. It is unreasonable. It does not lift one ""ght from the heart. It answers none of the perplexing questions of life. It solves no problem and does not re move difficulties.. It is,, unreasonable because God is and he is the rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

SPEAKS OF FADS AND ISMS. Dr. Jjapham Picture Tendency of Day to Follow SensationaL "The moral and Christian need of the day 1 for men and women who will dare to confront and oppose this Supine sentlraentallsm, this moral softness, feminine eody-goodiness of the day which glosses over evil and minimizes sin," declared Rev. S. C. Lapham at the Second Baptist church yesterday morn lnar in reDlv to the comment on his sermon last Sunday in which he re ferred to the tendency of women to take up with fads and "isms. The sub ject of yesterday' sermon was "Slgne of the Times, and the Christian Atti tude Toward Vicious Practice Carried1 on in the Name of Religion." Dr. Lapham called Christian science the "greatest - imposition and counter feit ever conceived to numoug ana as eiva tba nubile." - Going further. Dr. Lapham ridiculed the novel writers of the present day for their "beautiful teaching of animalism." That Dr. LaDham has not changed his opinion of a week ago wa evident In his expression. '"The promulgation of contract marriage, the teaching of affinity unions and . ' the 1 continuous trend toward 'free-love ism,' and when, add that which everyone knows, that women, cultured, renneo, educated women, are active participants and firomlnent teachers of these things, it s hlc-h time for men to cry out against this demoralising trend of things and especially the place that women occupy In rouowing jrew raaa. Continuing hi remarks on the pres ent state, the minister drew word pic tures of women and young girls follow ing in the steps of the new "fads and fanaticisms." After declaring that he had not accused Mrs. Eddy or her de votees of teaching free love. Dr. Lapham declared that he could prove that Mrs. Eddy "discredits and attacks the mar riage relation and proposes that divine science i. a, her cult) will do away with marriage." His sermon follows in "part: .... "O tnou unnsi or. rxaxaretn, wnat crimes have been committed in . thv name. Wrfat violence and bloodshed and torture have been perpetrated In the name of the God of the Bible. War, slavery, drunkenness, monarchy, Immor ality, robbery, polygamy and the- right of some men to oppress their brothers, Justified and taught In the name of the God whom we teach Is love,' and whenever men - have protested these crime committed in the name of re ligion their votaries have always as sumed the role of the persecuted, " "World Xreeda Strong Ones." f. " s - "We need -the moral equivalent of war In the civio and religious life of men and women who will dare to dis cern and judge and discriminate between- good and evil. , The moral and Christian need of the day la for men and women who will dare to confront and oppose this supine sentlmentallsm, this moral softness, feminine goody goodlness of the day which glosses over evil and minimises sin. No man who pretends to follow Christ can dare to be tolerant of that which Is evil or vicious, even If It does claim the name of religion. ' :. "The promulgation of contract mar riage, the teaching of affinity unions and the continuous trend toward 'free- loveism,' and when we add that which every one knows, that women, cultured, refined, educated women, are active par ticipants and prominent - teachers of these things, It is high time for men to cry out against this demoralising trend of thing and especially the place that women occupy in It. "I ask you seriously and with the full knowledge of the place of nobility women occudv and the rights which she ought to have, to think of the place women are taking in the support of the fads and fanaticisms of Tangled Tonrues. Holy Ghosters. Spiritualism. New Light, Eddyism, Hindu Swamlsm and Tbeosophy. Beautiful spectacle, a crowd of refined, cultured. Christian women flocking around a Hindu India Swaml. Beautiful spectacle, a crowd of women, young girls and mere chil dren screaming; and yelling and groan ting, shouting and tumbling over with the "powers and the Holy Ghost,' to the leadership of an . Ignorant negro preacher. . These orgies and disgusting antics in the name of religion are the breeders of insanity, and ought to be stopped. i "Laws are being enacted to keep women out of saloons, for the protec tion of women and society. Is there not some way to protect women from the inducements and attractions Of psycho religionism and occultism that seems to appeal so strongly to her spiritual Intu it! venesn - and psychio lmpressionable nessf Woman' most blessed gifts and qualities of being in the-psychio realm are the avenue of her gravest dangers and most. fatal mistakes." , THE FOOLISH FARMER. Sizzling Tonguers Preyen Attack Planned by Exas peratcd Residents. . A carefully-laid, plot to attack and rout the Tongues of Flame settlement at Mount Tabor, including the cutting of the guyropea of the big revival tent and the raxing of the tents housing the adherents of that faith, waa discov ered in the nick of time last nla-hL C. Martin, the furniture dealer who balled A. E. Walker out of jail and who was acting as a sort of sentry Sunday night, overheard the plotter ; talking and Immediately reported to Officer Sloan, who has been detailed at tn meetlnrs bv Chief Grltsmacher. The attack on the camo was to have been led by eight husky sailor lads, who were to nave received ror tne worn, ac cording to TVlnter's- report to the offi cer. $5 each. Winters asserted that he had received reliable information that they were in the nay of prominent res idents of Mount Tabor, who have been annoyed by - the midnight bowlings of tne ranatics. ,- w Officer Sloan located ; the leader of the sailors, petty officer, and' ordered him and his comrades off the grounda A chain of Tongues of Flame sentries. armed , witn neavv ciuds, was -nasin thrown around, the grounds, and. ai thoua-rl several sliaht clashes occurred between sentries and bush ? prowlers, there was no serious troume. Hundreds of Portland people visitea ths Tongues of Flame camp meeting last night. In spite of the fact that tne ' big tent was emptied or au out the faithful at 8:80 o'clock the audi ence seemed to think that it had been amply repaid for its long car ride. The services opened at 7:80 o'clock and for two hours the tent walls echoed to the corybantlc evolutions and shouts of con verta A feature of the evening's serv ices was the unintelligible exhortations of the adherents, after tney nad woruna themselves ud to a Diicn oi zrensy in tneir testimonials. , -v. earth and laying up none In heaven, no man can commit , In - this instance the folly was ac centuated by the circumstance that the man was greatly ravored oi uoo. - ne was favored in his location.'

There la no better place under God's stars to bring up children for there thy are far removed from the insidious temptations and ths trials that come to them in our great cities.

When one com pares it with our modern gambling methods whereby men on boards of trade make or lose 11,000,000 a day, he Is mightily Impressed with its honesty. This man must have also been fav ored In person to be In health, to be able to do hard work and to be intel ligent enough to do it well, yet failure ia written over this man's life and he is called a fool. Why? His philosophy was wrong. He counseled with himself. ttures say: "ir any man lack et him ask of God." He is the better counsellor. - He was an epicurean. He sought the satiety of the flesh, forgetting his soul, and he has plenty of successors even in Portland. le turned the divine order Fought to Get Riches First, God Last, and Failed. Last night at the White Temple, Rev. W. B. Riley, D. XX. took for the basis of his sermon. "The Parable of the Foolish . Farmer." He called attention to ' the fact that employing the . word "fool" was not like eur Lord. Hla con. duct must have been foolish indeed, to have bim so denominate it. Greater folly than tnat oi laying up treasures on about, got riches first and exnected to get God . last. The result was he never got to God at all, and, dying sud denly, he was never Drivileaed to en joy bis riches. His end was sudden and irremediable. In an hour when he thought not the summons to Judg ment came. It will be so with you. n THE WASHINGTON LIFE.
