Ai was anticipated. Chautauqua
caught the crowds from Elks' week In
Portland in th rnhound and venlcrdav
reached in the history Of the assembly;
By a chain of delayed trains, con
nections missed, It became evident on
Saturday that Charles Edward Russell,,
minor, journalist, lecturer ana social
1st, had a very narrow margin to travel
on if he reached Gladstone Park , for
.Sunday afternoon, and so It was an
nounced twice on Saturday from the
platform.
i Lou J. Beauchamp was Introduced to
the audience by Platform Manager
jones, mougn ne maae ine iaiai mis
take of not again explaining why, the
change had to be made. Just as the
tall traveler whom Elbert Hubbard and
Sam Jones delighted to honor, was
about, to make his stately bow. to his
4000 auditors.. Bedlam bf'oke loose. W.
S. U'Ren demanded to know why Charles
Edward Russell, whom they had cotrie
to hear, was not to give the lecture.
Insistent Deaaatfs.
Manager Jones explained, but the de
mand for Mr. Russell became more per
sistent and accusations of unfair treat
ment flew thick and fast, until the re
doubtable Secretary H. E. Cross, mount
ed the platform and very emphatically
put the situation before them, and the
vociferous applause and calls for
"Beauchamp" brought the speaker to
the platform.
Mr. Russell arrived at 4 p. m. and
soon made plain to his friends that the
management was net to blame.
At the ( ose of the afternoon program
Miss Helen V. Boswell, who was visiting
at the Federation of Women's clubs'
headquarters, spoke to a large gathering
on the work of the women of Panama,
why she was sent there by President
Taft to organize women's clubs, and
what nail been the result of them. .
The sacred music provided for almost
every hour of Sunday was excellent and
' mott inspiring
It is conceded by all whose opinions
are regarded as authority that this has
been the banner class year. The classes
have never been Co good, or well at
tended, and it I noticeable that there
is much less visiting from one to the
other and a much steadier attendance at
all.
The Shakespeare Study club of Port
land has outlined the following elabor
ate round table program for the week,
which will be held at.it headquarters
from 4 to 5 p. m.
Monday, Professor L, Emerson Bas

morrow she will give black-hean soup,
Honeymoon cake, fruit salads and veg
etable cooWng. Miss Francis Gage, who
Is in charge of the Y. W. C. A. head
quarters, where the domestic science
Fchool is held, is the beneficent angel
to every one who wants table room for
their lunch, a pot of coffee to boil or
who has forgotten the essential tools
with which to handle their luncheons
in short she helps everybody over the
hard places, and adds to the happiness
- of all.
"Brook's "Picketts Charge' is the
grandest heroic poem I ever heard," said
General Nelson A. Miles. This same
Tl. kfffs Charge," by Mr. Brooks' will
be on6 of the ten selections given by

Lou J. Beauchamp, wTio "thrilled his
audience yesterday afternoon, will ad
vise the audience tonight how to "Take
the Sunny Side." This will be supple
mented with a readlnK bv- Professor
ularlty with the Chautauqua audience.
A splendid array of talent has been
secured for the forum hour which will
be held at 11 o'clock. Just one cloud,
mars the prospect f6r the hour, which
will be the enforced absence of the sreat
woman leader of Oregon, Mrs. Abigail
Scott Dunnlway, who, while steadily im
proving, is still unable to make the
trip, as it was felt the effort would
be too great a strain upon her return
ing strength. Mrs. Henry Waldo Coe

Johnson, it is claimed, Is ready to

connection with the bribery of Juror's in
the McNamara trial. Kranklin's state
ment, acording to the Darrow defense,
wae made after he had been arested for
bribery and while Johnson was actlDg
as his attorney.
The prosecution argues that any in
formation given Johnson by Franklin
Is inviolate in view of the fact that
i It was a confidence of legal counsel. A
long technical fight was precipitated
I over this question. -
Johnson, It was expected, would he

-Ran over-by an auto drivan by-Mr,
W, W. Mocredia, wife of ex-Judge Mo
Credle, owner of the Portland baseball
club, and former representative in con
gress .from... Washington,. Albert Lech
thorn. 10 years old, who darted in front
of the machine from behind a moving
streetcar on Union avenue late yester
day afternoon, has a bare chance for
recovery.-1- -
Tha little fellow i afc-Bt.-Vincenfa
hospital, where he was sent by Judge
McCredie in a Red Cross ambulance
after the accident, with a sorely
crushed chest and Internal injuries.
After the front wheels of the auto had
missed him, the left rear wheel passed
over, his body Just before the machine
was broiight to a complete stop.
At the hospital this morning it was
aid that the boy's condition was more
encouraging than at any time since the
accident, and- that he was resting easily.
With his father and mother, Mr. and
Mrs. Albert Lechthorn of Eatacada, he
was In Portland yesterday on a vlglj to
an uncle, Edwin We1ser, ' an architect,
living in the Jacket apartments, at
Union avenue and East Davis streets.
Jhe accident, which took -place on
Union avenue, Just north of Killings
worth street, about 6:20 o'clock, was
apparently unavoidable. The McCre
dte's auto had Just crossed Killings
worth avenue going north on the right
hand fide of the street, and a south
bound streetcar was approaching Kill
ingsworth on the left hand side of the
street. Just as car and auto were about
opposite, .the Lechthorn boy suddenly
darted from behind the car and directly
in front of the machine.
"I was in the rear seat with Fred W.
Biers, former city treasurer," said Judge
McCredie this morning, "and Mrs. Mc
Credie was in front with Miss Louise
fiurman of New Jersey, her cousin, who
is visiting us. We were going between
10 and 12 miles an hour. Jogging along
at an easy pace not more than 12
miles at the outside.
"We 'Were about 100 feet north of
Kllllngsworth and almost directly op
posite the streetcar coming from the
other direction, when suddenly this lit
tle boy appeared from behind the rear
platform, running across the street from
the west to the east side at full speed.
He had not gotten off the car, but ran
out behind it, and was not more than
20 or 25 feet away from ua when we
saw him.
"As I saw him, I yelled, 'look out!'
He saw us at probably the same instant,
but he was going so fast that his stride
carried Mm three or four steps before
he stopped, directly in front of us. If
he had kept running; he would have
been safe.
"Mrs. McCredie screamed, but she had
instantly thrown on the brakes and
i lutch. She is a very careful driver,
and' Uhft did all that anyone could have
done. The boy was so close that Mrs.
McCredie could not swerve to miss him.
He stood paralyzed where he had
stopped, putting his face in his hands
and stooping over with his back to us
Just as the auto hit him.
"A man who saw the accident lifted
him Into my car. We thought he said
he lived in . Woodlawn, so we took him
to a doctor's there. I KPnt for the
ambulance immediately, and he was re
moved to St. Vincent's hospital. '
