CoALlNG STATIONS AND COLON
STORAGE PLANT.

CoaIing stations are the chief topics OF
talk at all the ports. Renewed CONNER
cial activities are the expected sequence
Of the coaling stations. 1t is assumed
that most Of the ports where the vessels
heretofore have coaled will greatly en-
large their facilities and that much local
prosperity viii follow.
The question Of Coaling stations is an
open one. The big storage pant when
the Canal Commission has established at
Colon, with a capacity Of 10000 tons. may
upset some Of these calculations. because

There is one thing that makes this
work different from an endowed organiza-
ton or one that is supported by philan-
thropy-we must make good. There is
no mildly acquiescent board of directors,
free from financial worry TO rubber
stamp with their immediate and nnques-
tioning approval everything that Is done
or proposed or put into a report This
means that we put our best ticks into
every iob-that we work az hard on the

methods TO the Church On a business
basis.
'Three-auarters Of the work that we are
doing now is i'm churches. That fact is
explained partly by the nature of the
work itself and partly by my being In
touch with that particular field by reason
Of my activities during the last twenty
years-ten years as a minister and ten as

II take with me into such problems the
experiences OF ten years as a machinist
in the plant Of Richard Hoe, building
roller presses" And not without a touch
of pride Mr. Stclzle called his visitors
attention TO a neat black frame that hung
on the wall behind him and embraced an
engraved certificate TO the effect that he
had become a duly licensed apprentice in
the Hoe plant.

government. while considerate OF colonial
susceptibilities, is firm in its paterhai
policy
British possessions are so numerous
that thew have rivalries among them
selves for the prospective canal traffic,
and also for other traffic. 1t is ques-
ton whether Port of Spain, in Trinidad
or Bridgetown, in Barbados, has the
best claim to be called the crossroads.
Neither of them is in the direct radius OF
the canal, and each of them offers about
eJual facilities for vessels through the
canal from the Pacific coast to the east
coast of South America

BANK OFFICIAL IS
GIVEN FIVE YEARS
Charles S. Gilchrist, of Cen
traIia Bank, Arrested Mon
day, Now in Prison

Tacoma. Wash. Sept. 93-Sentenced
to five years Imprisonment on plea
of guilty TO charges OF entertainments
Charles $. Gilehrist, first vice-president
of the United states National Bank of
Centralia, was today taken to Mcneil s
Island federal peniIentiary to begin
serving his sentence. He was arrested
Monday, following the closing of the
bank, by order of examiners and was
brought here for trial yesterday.
Gilchrist's S crime, as explained by
George Dysart, director of the de
funct institution, consisted in taking
the money from the sale of about Sl5,-
600 worth of school bonds belonging to
the estate of the late Il. l.. Mccormick
of Tacoma and applying it to take up
some worthless coal mine paper held by
mis- bank. He is said to have made
the transfer of funds because he knew
the bank examiners were coming and
he wanted to give his bank good foot
ing. He hoped to make another sale
before il was necessary to settle for
the Mccormick bonds, hut the govern.
ment examiners discovered the deal.
There we're three counts in the in,
dictment returned by the local federal
grand jury, and Gilchrist could have
been sentenced to five years on each
of these. Judge Cusnman, however
granting the request of Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Fishburne, imposed the
minimum sentence and allowed the
counts to run cOnrurrently.

APPLE PICKING
HAS NOW BEGUN
Corn and Potatoes Benefited by Late
Rains.

The following summary of the wealth
er and its results for the week ending
September 2l, on the condition of the
principal crops in Oregon, is based up
on Investigations made by n number of
correspondents reporting to tine local
office of the weather bureau.
Grain fell nearly every day last
week in the principal agricultural sec
tions of Oregon. The week was also
unusually cool, but on account of the
soil being warm grasses and roots made
considerable growth. Corn and pota-
toes are maturing slowly, and both
crops were benefited by the raius.
"The soil is now in excellent condi-
tion for fall blowing, which is being
advanced as rapidly as possible. The
rains will cause the weeds in the sum
mer fallowed land to make good start
after which they will be destroyed by
narrowing and the fall crop seeded.
"Prune drying and hop picking, now
drawing to close, were delayed by
wet weather without these crops being
injured to any serious extent.
"Apple picking has begun in the
southern counties.
