n mi I convention of the Oregon (lay

nesday afternoon. Owing to delays on
railroads delegates were slow- in coming
and only a few of the 30 expected were
present nt the opening session.
President W. K. Wilson, of Salem,
presented his annual report and other
reports and discussions occupied the re
mainder of the afternoon session. The
meeting re-opened at 8 o'clock tonight
and talks on various subjects were
made by leading delegates.
At the session here the only address
wis that of W. E. Wilson, of Salem,
the retiring president. The secretary
and treasurer made his report, also the
advertising committee. Then the elec
tion of officers took place, resulting in
tiie selection of the following for the
coming year: President, Harold S.
Smith, of the Denny-Henton ( lay and

Oregon Leads Way In
Solving Church Problem
Oregon appears to be lending the way
in solving a few of the many church
problems. Salem claims the first church
in tho state to itse moving pictures as
a means of interesting people in the ev
ening services. Beginning Sunday,
February 0, the First Congregational
church of this city, began a series of
Sundny evening entertainments with
moving pictures of standard grade and
with the Fathc company service. The
first services brought but an attend
ance of 700, completely filling the au
ditorium, balcony and Sunday school
room. The pictures shown were' Fathe's
"Joseph in Bondage."
And now comes Scio, a town of 500 in
Linn county, Oregon, with four sep
arate church congregations, Methodist,
Christian, Presbyterian and Baptist.
These are to be merged into one church,
to be known as tnc ' Federated
Church."
The confession of faith is Jimple,
one that could he subscribed to by nny
Christian. Sectnrian lines were cast
aside, as the members of the new church
agreed that all they needed was the
fundamentals of the Christum religion.
The 70 members of the four churches
were glad to join hands, according to a
report received from Scio, and unite in
one strong church of brotherhood.
Tho "Federated Chlurch" is made up
as follows: Methodist, 5; Presbyterians,
11; Christians, IS; Baptists, 21;' outside,

A pastor from a consolidated church

And thus Oregon is solving the prob

services in the small towns where no
congregation is strong enough to sup
port a regular pastor.
Chinese Highbinders
Fight and Then Feast
San Francisco, Feb. 12 Chinese tong
men gathered today iu the Six Com
panies building here to patch up a
peace.
For bullets sang last night here, at
Stockton and Son Jose in a battle of
Suey Ongs and Suey Sings, killing ono
Chinese here, and one at Stockton, in
Addition to wounding a Chinese and
two white men here.
And when Captain Gleason, Lieuten
ant Cook, Corporals Heinricks nnd
Cannon and 50 extra police had made a
roundup of firearms, and the San
Francisco tong war h.ul halted about
midnight, word went out thut there
should be no more gunning before Mon
day at least. Meantime, the rival clans
of Oriental warriors will banquet ench
other and apparently at least, forget
the bloodshed of the night.
The trouble started when Henry
Chow Choug. an Oakland Suey Sing,
went to a Chinese theatre here. Tito
Suey Ongs resented this intrnstion,
gathered outside, dragged out Chow
( hong nnd then opened fire while
startled whites sought safety.
Word of the battle reached Stockton
ind San Jose nnd trouble started there
too.
A rush of police made the local gun
men scatter to their dens in hidden al

work. Culm then settled- on Chinatown.
