Simpson Dies at His Home at Estacada Upon Retunr From Hospital. Rev. John E. H. Simpson, for 28 years rector of St Marks Episcopal church of Portland, died suddenly at his home at Estacada Saturday night after a linger ing illness of many weeks. Removed fronv Good Samaritan hospital Friday when he insisted he was sufficiently re covered to be returned home, the Rev. Mr. 8impson found the trip too much for his weakened constitution and he lived onlv one day. The Rev. Mr. Simpson ceased active work at St. Marks September 1, 1918, wheen his health failed him, and moved to Estacada to seek health. He came to Portland tn 1896 to succeed the Rev. W. L. McEwan at St. Marks, which was then at Nineteenth and Quimby streets. He came from Grace Episcopal church at Council Bluffs. Iowa. Previ ously he had been rector at Wymore, T?eb. Ho was educated for the pulpit at Seabury Hall. Falrbault, Minn- being graduated in 1891. and was ordained by Bishop George Worthington of Omaha. The Rev. Mr. Simpson was a fratlve ot Ireland and came from a notable family of churchmen, his father, grand father and great grandfather being rec tors in the Episcopal church of Ire land. He leaves two brothers, also in the church. He came to America in 1883. Under the guidance of Rev. Mr. Simp son St. Marks church in Portland en Joyed a great growth. While he was its active rector the church was moved to Marshall street near Twenty-first, and. soon became the center of Episcopalian activity. It was always conducted as a high church during Rev. Air. Simpson's rectorship. Late in 2918 the Rev. Mr. Simpson gave up active charge of St. Marks; to his assistant, the Rev. John G. Hattonv and was named rector emeritus. He re tained his connection with the Episcopal school board of the diocese. r Surviving the prominent divine are Mrs. Simpson, a son. John E. Jr., stu dent at the Oregon Agricultural college, now tn the United States navy ; a daugh ter. Eleanor, student at Stl Helens Hall, two brothers, the Rev. Edmund Simpson of CorvalHa and the Rev.

At least Judge Rossman says it is 69 cents cheaper now, even with the increased cost of living and other expenses, to send a msn to Jail or to abstract a fine from him. Judge Rossman entered upon his pres ent duties in August, 1917. During the year following Jie handled 13.092 cases and imposed $86,223 in fines.' The salaries of the Judge, two court clerks, stenographers and city attorney and the expenses of the court for the year totaled $8900. leaving a profit balance of $77,323. Thia means that out of every dollar taken in by the court. 90 cents was profit for the. city andNo cents was used to defray the court expenses. Dividing the total court expense, $8900, by the number of cases, 13,092, the cost per case to the city during the year waa 68 cents. Under the administration preceding, the court says the cost per case was $1.37. "Efficiency and economy," saya Judge Rossman, "are my watchwords." Rev. Mr. Simpson's death he immedi ately " cancelled a series of Sunday en gagements and hastened to the Simp son home at Estacada. Funeral. services will be held Tuesday morning at 10:30 at St. Marks church and will be the inspiration, for a notable concourse of churchmen and others. Re quiems will be sung at 7 and again at 7 :30 Tuesday morning. ' It is expected that the body will be at the church this evening-. Buriel will be made at River- view cemetery. Flans to delay funeral arrangements for the arrival of the son, John E., Jr., who 'is with the navy In the east, were withdrawn. Californlana will vote July 1 on a constitutional amendment providing for $O,0O0.0O9 state highway bond issue.
