Christian Life Is
Subject of Sermon
Ber. Tatnsr O'DonneU Makes Recom
mendations to Graduating Class of
XnunacrUatg Academy.
A Christian life was recommended to
the graduating class of the Immacu
lata academy In the baccalaureate ser
mon delivered yesterday by Rev. Fath
er O'Donnell. He touched upon the
lack of religion In public instruction.
The graduates were advised to go forth
and spread the truths of religion
wherever possible.
"The first graduates of a Christian
school were the Apostles," he said.
"They studied in the school of Christ,
at Christ's own knee. The Master was
about to leave them, and he wished to
give them a final commission. He gave
them this solemn Injunction: "Go
therefore, teach all nations.' Today,
standing In this holy place, in the very
presence of that same Master, I tell
you who are about to leave the hal
lowed walls of a Christian school, the
same injunction. You. young women,
must be witnesses to the faith, to the
teachings of Christ.
"The primary business of education
is to prepare us for the kingdom of
God and only secondly to fit us for
this life."

LEGAL BATTLE IS
STUBBORN, BUT SUM
INVOLVED IS SMALL
Court Costs Amount to More
Than Principal, But Each
Side Is Determined,
SUIT SNOW STORM ECHO
General Electric Company Accused of
Shoveling- Snow Off Warehouse
On Kesidancs Which Adjoins.
The amount involved Is only $27.23,
but that has been practically lost
sight of in the determination of each
side to win the case which went to
trial In Judge Morrow's department
of the circuit court this morning.
Court costs alone already amount to
more than twice the sum In litigation,
and they no doubt are a small Item
compared with the attorneys' fees that
axe piling up.
Last winter's heavy snowfall might
be said to be all to blame. The snow
fell at such depth that many property
owners were compelled to shovel It
from the roofs of their buildings. This
was true with the General Electric
company, which owns a four story
warehouse at Fifteenth and Marshall
streets.
W. P. Sinpott owns a house on the
adjoining lot. He says the company
shoveled the snow off its warehouse
onto his house, loosening the shingles
and causing leaks, with 1 the result
that the paper and plastering fell off
the interior walls. It cost him $22.25
to repair the damage.
Then he found a lot of rubbish,
which he say's the company placed on
his lot. He removed it and presented
a bill to the company for 15 for the
job, making a total of 127.23. The
company refused to pay.
Slnnott brought suit in the district
court and won a verdict for the amount
he asked and court costs, which were
$32. The defendant appealed. The
court costs are now accruing in the
circuit court. And the General Electric
company has an array of attorneys, in
cluding Dolph, Mallory, Slm.'.n &
Gearin and Hall S. Lusk, while Attor
ney Isaac Swett is representing Sin-
nott.
The General Electric company de
nles shoveling the snow on Slnnotfs
house, and asserts that the house Is
old and probably leaky, anyway, and
the company says the rubbish con
sists of boards and broken barrels
etc., which were placed on the prem
ises at the request of a former tenant
of the house.
A large number of witnesses are be
Ing heard.
HABEAS CORPUS IS DENIED
James Level Under Sentence for
Attempted Fraud.
Judge Bean in federal court this
morning denied the application of
James M. Level for a writ of habeas
corpus. Level is in Multnomah county
Jail under sentence for fraud in a suit
brought by John M. Level to recover
money.
Judge Bean said that he had exam
lned the application very carefully on
account of the implication that Level
is imprisoned for debt, and the abhor
rence for such Imprisonment. He said,
however, that no violation of Level's
i constitutional rights was shown, and
I therefore he would deny the applica
tion.

FACTS
It has been estimated
that more than 5.000,000,000 I
tons of freight per annum
pass over the high-ways of
thlg country. The average
nam is a little under ten
miles and the cost Is about
23 cents rer ten miles. This
cost should not exceed 8
cents per ten miles on a
good road. In other words
at least tl.50 should be
saved on every ton moved
on our highways. The to
tal saving from good roads
staggers the Imagination.
To effect this saving roads
