The greatest lecture ever given from
the Chautauqua platform la the unanl-
mous verdict pronounced upon the ad
dress of Bishop Melntyre yesterday
afternoon. Taklnsr as Jits subject, "The
Evolution of Abraham Lincoln," the
speaker rose to heights of eloquence
never before heard In the groves of
Gladstone park.
The evolution of Lincoln enme
through three things: his humor which
Btarted him in life: his honesty, which
-tarried htm forward, and his humanity
which consummated his life. I'pon
each one of these traits in the charac
ter of Lincoln, the speaker enlnisi'd;
and gave striking Instances to Illus
trate his points.
One eloquent picture after another,
warm with adulation, wreathed in mer
riment or dripping with th tears of a
heartbroken country, the speaker j
brought In rapid succession Derore nis
audience which for two hour he held
spellbound. ... . ,
One of his most magnificent rllghta
of oratory was the illustration of the
life of Lincoln ho found when he gasecl
into Mirror lake in the Yosemlte, nnd

from suffering, and made them feel.

the religious services.
nut one sentiment was expressed,
wi.nn iht p-onir pounded for tho last
lesson yesterday morning, and ,'good

nun s. and inm whs sincere r-ici.
Stripped of the strenuousness of tho
classroom, these lessons lane ine juini
of familiar talks, nnd the relation be
tween the teacher and the taught
grows verv close. Among some there
Is n feeling that something more sys
tematic should prevail, and the regu
lar Chautauqua course of study has
been suggested, but to many thla Is
the season of vacation and arduous
work :"f'ould defeat the purpose for
which they came. At the c1ob of Mrs.
Miller's courtBe of domestic science she
was fairly" besieged ior recipes from
which she had been teaching, and if
she gives but a small percentage of
those asked she will have employment
for the rest of the summer writing

andthe memorlaJ services which were

been spoken bv tnat Kindly soul, joei

showed the best and truest side of the

THIRD ANNUAL FLOWER SHOW OF MULTNOMAH COUNTY
SCHOOL CHILDREN SURPASSES ALL PREVIOUS EXHIBITS

AXFRED UAMMEb,
Curious Mexirun Indiitns.
From the Mexican Herald.
Rurled in the heart of a civilized
powerful unii progressive foreign peo
ple, a little hundlul of Indians have
liven ror .nm years, and have contrived
to keep during all thut time their na
tional characteristics, their traditions
and their individuality. If you seek
them yon will find them In Amatlan de
los Reyes, a tillage in (he state of Vera
Cms, Mexico. They are the Amutccas.
The Amat'ocas are perhapp the only
people in the republic who have suc
ceeded in retaining for themselves what
Is practically self-government. , It must
not be understood for a moment that
they make any pretensions to being in
dependent of the control of Mexican
government.
National Dish of ISrazil.
"After existing in South American
countries for the las' eight months it's
good to get back to town where one can
get something to eat." eaid R. q. Bree
den, a San Francisco mining engineer.
"Most of the time I've been In the
south was spent In Brazil. In that coun
try the national dish is jerked beef and
black beans, and one sees nothing else.
Nowhere In South America, excrpt in
Buenos Ayrea, can a stranger from the
Vntted States get a meal that will
tickle his palate. The South Americans
surely don't know the rudiments of
cooking. Every dish they bring you Is
something in grease and garllo and so
dosed with peppor as to nearly strangle
you.
Once moro the annual flower show of
the Multnomah county school' children
has come and gone and those who have
seen the exhibits of the various years
declare that the one held In the city
hall yesterday was by far the finest of
the three. In discussing the show. Su
perintendent R. F. Robinson who orig
inated the idea and upon whom has de
volved the expense of the shows, salu
that the sweet peas exhibited yesterday
far surpassed those of former years.
'rTwo years ago," declared Superln-!
tendent Robinson, "there was but one
exhibit of King Alfred sweet peas. At
that time they were the only up-to-date
variety shown. This year we hnd many
displays of King Alfreds besides many
aispiavs or stin newer varieties. this
fact shows that the children are enter
ing into the spirit of tho show.
Excellent Exhibits.
"There Is only one drawback to hold
ing the display at this time of the year.
Many school children who have spent
several months In growing their flow
ers were unable to attend the show be
cause of the necessity of their presence
in the berry patohos. Perhaps next year
the exhibits will be local and In chareo
of the parents of the locality rather than
eentrai display.
Unite another view was taken bv the
children who exhibited. They were in
ror the competition with great zest and
their beautiful displays confirmed Su
perintendent Robinson's estimate of the
show. Two of the prettiest displays
were exhibited by Maurine Thurmond of
St. Johns. This particular miss took
third prize last year, hut she took care
this year that her display should be
better and it was so much better that
Instead of a third prize she took two
first prizes. Her exhibit of Spencer
lyortcis and creamy whites attracted
favorable comment from visitors.
Other Successful Ones.

Superintendent Robinson, was another
