UNUSUALLY EARLY TRIP
.C. H. Sholes Declares That Condi
itlbns Are at the Best Now for
- the Ascension of 'the Big
"Mountain.
Friday. June 16, C. H. Sholes, chairman
of the Mazama outing committee; O. C.
Yooum, of Government Camp, and Er
nest G. Eyre, of Sa'Iem. made an ascent
of Mount Hood. This Is one of the ear
liest ascents ever made, and might have
been the earliest, had not the guides from
Cloud Cap Inn climbed to the summit on
Wednesday, the 14th, after laying the life
line on the north side of the mountain.
Mr. Sholes returned Saturday afternoon,
and talks enthusiastically of the pleas
ures of a trip to Mount Hood so early in
the season. Describing some of his ex
periences, he said:
"I did not know that it would be possi
ble to make the climb so early, but with
Mr. Yocum I wanted to go over the snow
fields as far ag Crater Rock, and per
haps to the big crevasse, for I had heard
that it might be necessary to build an ar
tificial bridge in order to cross it, so
enormously had it widened last year. I
also wished to make an examination of
the road between Sandy and Government
Camp with reference to the Sierra Club's
excursion to Mount Hood July 11, for
which the Mazamas have promised them
an automobile trip from Portland. 1 was
delighted to find the road in much hotter
condition than I have ever known it. The
only difficulty In the way of automobile
travel is between the tollgate and Gov
ernment Camp; but Ed Coalman, who
has charge of the repairs, told me he was
making every effort to put the road in
first-class condition for the autos. Much
effective work has already been done be
low the tollgate In the way of widening
narrow places, removing stumps and
rocks and Ailing low places, and Mr. Coal
man assured me that this week he would
begin with a sufficient force of men to re
move all obstructions in the road from
the tollgate to Government Camp. He
seemed to understand that taking the
Siorra party to Mount Hood and return in
automobiles would advertise Mount Hood
as an attractive and aeceesttrie tourist
resort all over the world, and he posi
tively assured me that before July 1 he
would have the road in such condition
that the round trip could be made easily
In one day.
Effect of Light Snowfall.
"On account of the light snowfall the
past Winter, the road is dry through the
heavily-timbered portion, where ordinarily
so oarly In the season there would be
many places it would be difficult for an
automobile to get over. The fact is, as
soon as the obstructions are removed be
yond the tollgate, this road of 50 miles
will become one of the most delightful
automobile trips on the Coast. Mileafter
mile is now like a boulevard, winding
amid magnificent forests, through whose
overarching cojumns the sun's heat Is
subdued to a 'shadowy coolness even In
midday: here and there skirting great can
yons within hearing of roaring waters,
opening upon scenes of wildness and
beauty. Just now the rhododendron Is in
full bloom, and from the Zigzag nearly
to Government Camp the woods on cither
side of the road arc gorgeously arrayed in
their pink blossoms. What the rose is to
Portland the laurels arc to Mount Hood,
and it Is almost worth the trip just to
pass through miles of them.
Conditions at Their Best.
"We have usually considered the first
of July as early enough to make the trip
to Mount Hood for the purpose of going
to the summit: but the conditions this
year are so different on account of m
little snow, and the coolness of the Spring
which has delayed its melting, that con
ditions for climbing are better now than
they will be at any future time this
Summer. In a few days the unow will
have disappeared a far an timber line;
but beyond It is one vaH unbroken Jldd
of dazzling white, almost as smooth as a
floor, with few inequalities In the grad
ual ascent to Crater Rock. Beyond
Crater Rock, one sees evidences of the
enormoup hroaklng-up process which be
came so noticeable laat reason. Far t
the left of the arete, along which we
ascend to the great crevasse, the upper
part of the snow field which plunges so
precipitously to the steaming crater. Is
broken into huge blocks of Ice and snow,
which are tilted up and apparently ready
any moment to plunge Into the open
crater. Just above the great erevasce
another almost as large ie opened, but
is much shorter; and at the present time
the route of ascent Is the same as has
been followed for several years, leavtng
the arete just below tbe creva-?. going
west as far ae Geer Rock, where the
crossing is made, then proceeding up the
col at the right of Geer Rock to the
summit.
Scene of Hare Beauty.
"On the day of our ascent, the view
from Crater Rock toward the summit
was one of rare beauty and grandeur.
In the brilliant sunlight the snow Hvonc
In all its untarnished brightnos. The
spires and minarets along the southern
rim of the summit stood like prierts
clothed In white samite guarding the
shrine of a temple. With the background
of the Intense arure of the sky that pic
ture haunts the memory as long as life,
and makei visible one's conception of the
Great White Throne.
"To llvoe who desire to climb Mount
Hood, or only visit Its lower levels, I
would say. go now; never can the trip
be made more pleasantly, or the ascent
more aelly and safely. Mr. Yocum will
act a guide for any party not exceeding
IS In number. I cannot say too much In
nralee of his care and skill as a guide.
It Is little exaggeration to say that he
is as familiar with Mount Hood as most
men are with their own homes. Although
22 years' on the mountain, he has never
had an accident.
Swiss Opinion of Hood.
"A few years ago two Swiss guWof
came to Government Camp and employed
Mr. Yocum to go with them to the sum
mit. After leading them over a new and
extremely difficult route, arrlxing at tbe
top on a perfect day. .he said their en
thusiasm -whs boundless. Although they
had spent years in the Alps, and were
familiar with mountain scenery, they de
clared to Mr. Yocum that In It? range
and extent, the view from the summit of
Mount Hood surpassed anything that
could be seen from any of the Alpine
poaks. They also stated that If there
was such an Isolated peak in Switzer
land, from which so grand ' a view could
be obtained. It would become a source
of Immense revenue to the country, and
expressed great surprise that anything so
grand as Mount Hood, situated so near
a large city, should not be made a more
attractive tourist feature."
Crack Bowlers Coming.
Frank Br Ml and Gus St cole, the tw star
brwloss of Chicago who are touring the
Went, will reach Portland July a. They
hare only encountered one defeat on their
trip thus far and that was, at Salt Lake
City on June 17. Haaes and Zeferisg ef
Salt Lake lowered their colors on that
date. It Is practically decided that Knise
and Capen are the two Portland men who
will be pitted against' theis when they
reach here. Knise and Capen are prac
ticing dally on the Portland alleys and
they are showing up in Al form. On Fri
day last they put -up a 235 average for
the team in three games. That kind of
bowling should win something.
The Summer League Is progressing
nicely. The boys are taking much inter
est and cverj' captain Is aiming to have
his loam win first prize. The El SWelos
and Schlllers are rigged out in fine uni
forms and the ether teams are all going
to follow their example and get uniforms.
The results of last week's matches were:
Tuesday evening Seblllers took three
straight from the Cincos on the Portland
alleys. El Sidctos took all three games
from the Golden West on the Oregon al
leys. On Thursday evening the Schlllers
took two out of three from tbe Bl Sid la?
on the Portland alloys- The Bakers tooR
three straight from the American Eagles
ea the Oregon alleys.
The schedule for next week's games Is:
Tuesday. June 27 Cincos vs. American
Eagles, on the Portland alleys; El Stdoios
vs. Bakers, on Oregon alleys. Thursday.
June 2? Cincos vs. Bakers, on Portland
alleys: Schlllers vs. Golden West, on Ore
gon alleys.
City Offenders Before
Municipal Judge Hogue
A steady hand and arm, stretched to
the full length, saved W. P. Walker from
being fined by Judge Hogue yesterday
morning.
"Hold out your arm," commanded the
court. "J L your htutd is shaky. I will find
you guilty of assatht, but If It Is steady,
you may go free."
Walker arose and stretched forth his
hand. It was steady, and he was released.
Walker had previously exhibited a note
from a friend, declaring that tbe defend,
ant was a hard-working, sober and Indus
trious man.
"Haven't you fallen from the water
wagon a littler asked Deputy City At
torney Fitzgerald.
"Xot a bit," Walker replied.
Judge Hogue then made Walker th
unique proposition, which set the pris
oner free.
Walker was arrested with W. G." Fitz
gerald and L. J. Zumwalt for being dis
orderly, and causing a. row. In the mix
up Zumwalt was struck, and he charged
Walker with assaulting him. However,
after hearing the evidence. Judge Hogue
released Walker and fined the others W
each.
"In tbe first place I am not guilty be
cause I had no wagon, and In the second
place, the wagon I have was never driven
over the sidewalk, was the startling
statement of Isaac Madadowski to the
court officials, when he was arraigned on
a charge of trespass, preferred by E.
Brady.
"Aren't you a Httle mixed about that?"
asked Prosecutor Fitzgerald.
"Well. I am not guilty, anyway," re
plied MadadswskL
The charge against the defendant was
that he had repeatedly driven a wagoa
across the sidewalk in front of Brady's
residence, on Second street, near Sheri
dan. South Portland.
"This case will have to be continued.'
said Mr. FItzgeraM. "and in the mean
time I think the defendant had beat de
posit a little ball. 1 guoes (W will suf
fice." "I will be here Tuesday good-bye,"
said Madadowski. and started to leave
the courtroom.
"Hold on till you put up that ball," said
Bailiff Goltz.
"I can't nut up any money today It's
my holiday, replied MadadawskL. -"You'll
go to jslt then;' rcjrtGoltz.
"Oh. very wall." replied 'Madadowski.
"I'll put up the bait."
Mrs. J. D. Nicholson, Holds thr&pord
for an ungovamebie tdmer; jtccrdlrrg'e;
Judge Hogue and Deputy City Attorney
Fitzgerald. She was In court yosierday,
charged with using profane and abusive
language toward Mrs. W. H. Hill, of 73 1
Savier street. .
It was all Judge Hogue could do to. keep
Mrs. Nicholson quiet during the hearinst
while other witnesses were giving their
testimony. She would keep talking, de
fiantly. At last the court, in emphatic
tones, informed her he would fine her If
she said another word -without being first
asked to speak. She then sat stilt.
Testimony of the Hills, with whom the
Nicholson woman Is boarding and room
ing, was to the effect that the defendant
accused Mrs. Hill of stealing a table
clota. Words followed, and Mrs. Nichol
son laid hold of a coatly glass dish ami
hurled it to the floor, breaking it into
fragments. She was then arrested.
She premised to move by tomorrow, and
her case was continued. If she keeps her
word the case will be diomlscod; if not.
something will be done, the court stated.
Looking every bit as old as S years,
C. Boswcll was brought before Judge
Hogue yesterday chained with vagrancy.
He was arrested by Patrolman Murphy.
"How oM are you?" aked Judge Hogue,
"Not quite li." was the reply.
"Great Scott!" exclaimed Judge Hogue.
"Do you mean to let! us you are only J
years old?
The reply was in the affirmative.
Investigation developed the strange
fact that the boy has been shaving since
he was 8 years old. He made a state
ment to the court which caused the lat
ter to communicate with Judge Frazer,
of the Juvenile Court, and the young fel
low was Immediately taken before that
tribunal by a sister, who was present and
affirmed everything the bey told the
court.
"That's one of the most poruttar cases
I have ever seen," remarked Judge
Hogue
"He was running so fast that I did not
know he was near until he had gone
past." was the answer of Patrolman Mur
phy, when asked by Judge Hogue how
fast Frank Finger, a chauffeur, was go
ing when arrested at a late hour tbe
previous night.
"Well, about how fast would you think
he was going?" asked Prosecutor Fitz
gerald. "I should Judge he was making fully
M miles an hour. the policeman replied.
Patrolman Murphy then explained that
on four previous occasions the defendant
had bean known to have violated the or
dinances relative to automobiles, but
when an attempt was made to arrest him
he refused to stop. an2 was going so
fast he could not secure the number of
the tag.
Finger denied the allegations, but was
told he must produce witnesses to prove
his case, or be flaed. The case was then
continued.
Although Isadore Jacobs, keeper Ot a
bazaar "on the Trail at the Lewis and
Clark Exposition grounds, caused the ar
rest of George Wei. Friday afternoon,
on a larceny charge, he did not appear
In the Municipal Court yesterday to prose
cute. The"cae was dismissed.
Court officials consider the arrest of
the young man. who is from Solera, an
outrage. He was locked up in the City
Jail over night and snffored groat hu
miliation and deprivation, yet so flimsy
was the charge against Mm, It Is said,
that his accusers did net have the nerve
to appear against him.
A trinket belonging to the bazaar was
found in a coat pocket of the defendant
when he was searched at the Upsitur
strect police station, but it is believed
that it was placed there without his
knowledge by some one. and that he was
entirely innocent. He declared to the au
thorities that a trick was, perpetrated
upon him because he refused, when se
Hcitod, te make a purchase at the bazaar.

SHE VISITS JAPAN
Mrs. I. Frohman Tells of the
Mikado's Land.
ESPIONAGE IS COMPLETE
Government Keeps Close Watch Upon
All Foreigners V1io Arrive in
the Island Empire Dur--lns
War Time.
A visit to Japan during the progress ef
the war seems rather hazardous te many,
but Mrs. I. Frohman bad the pluck and
courage te make the trip to the Flowery
Kingdom alone when hostilities were at
thiir height and all tourists under strict
surveillance by the Jaoanese. Friends
who were to accompany her decided at
the last moment that it was net safe to
travel in the Orient during war times, but
that did not deter this Httle woman from
carrying out her long-chcrtohed plans,
and unaccompanied she started out en a
four months Journey. She visited all the
principal cities both of China and Japan,
met many of the best families, and was
entertained in private homes. She is
charmed with both countries, but found
Japan vitally interesting en account of
the prominent part that country is new
playing in the world's great programme.
Mrs. Frohman declares that she is Just
so full of the many Interesting and un
usual things she saw that she doesn't
know which to tell first. The people
themselves and their quaint customs,
their intense devotion to their religion;
the gorgeous embroideries, of which we
have a glimpse in the Japanese exhibit at
the Exposition; the rare old bronzes, the
beautiful flowers of which these people
make so much, and a hundred other fea
tures she tells -about with enthusiastic in
terest. She had the good fortune to be in
Tokie during the season of cherry blos
soms and wisteria, which blooms are so
closely Identified with all things Japanese
as to seem almost a part of them. Ev
ery residence has a terrace or roof of
this vine, and the effect In blossom time
is Indescribably beautiful. The famous
vine at Kasabube is the oldest and largest
in the world, being over K3 years old and
covering iCOd square feet. The Individual
blossoms measure as much as SO Inches in
length. She made a special trip to see
this vine, and drank tea. in one of the
many teahouses under it. Whole families
make this pilgrimage, and sit in pictur
esque groups under the vine and toss
mocM to the geldnsh in tbe lake while
they drink tea.
"My visit to Tokle was especially en
joyable." she said during her discussion
of Japan. "I made a terrible mistake
while there by stepping into the. theater
before removing my shoes, and you would
have been amused to see the consterna
tion It caused among the attendants. It
is a wonderful Hty, having a' youknow
over r.nf.9M inhabitants. There are no
sanitary measures to speak of," but the
borne are all scrupulously clean. I used
to gat pretty bung-f r. jgraie good, old,

cnaugn to reany enjej il
I observed in Toklo that the masses
Tvcre. kept In ignorance of all war -news
excepting the' grortt victories, and when
one of these occurred there would be a big
nubile celebration. The rlasses who were"
informed did not like to be questioned
about the war. and were exceedingly aus
picious of all Inquiries. There was a
chap who had been In the employ of the
government who turned traitor, and when
I made some casual inquiry about the
affair they fairly Jumped at me with a
demand to know who told me of ll. They
were watchful to a degree seldom
equalled, and after being among them
one expects only success from their ef
forts. I found that the Associated Press
correspondent, Martin J. Egan. Is very
popular with the Japanese, great confi
dence being imposed In him about all
matter?. They say they can trust him.
as be does not send out untruthful reports
or matters which would prove injurious
to the government.
"At Osaka I saw many wounded sol
diers returned from the battle eW, many
of them completely helpleils. But they
were cheerful and happy, all planning to
return to the ranks as soon as physically
a Me. It wax at Nagasaki, however, that
the realities of war were most Impressed
upon ue. In entering the harbor, which
by the way is one of the most beautiful
In the world, the ship had to proceed with
greatest caution to avoid coming In con
tact with floating mines which had been
displaced. Can you Imagine how you
would feel in such a position? Decidedly
ticklish. 1 assure you. and everyone on
board was relieved when the ordeal was
over and we were ready to land. But
before landing there was another ordeal,
for every passenger was put through a
physical examination and cross-questioned
by officials, then watched while In the
city. The supervision which Is kept over
all foreigners Is remarkable. They know
all about everyone, where they come
from, what their business Is, and they
proceed to watch that one's programme
Is not suddenly changed. When I visited
the castle grounds at Osaka, at. the In
vitation of the American Consul, our party
was followed all through the grounds by
armed guards, who kept dose te our
heels."
Mrs. Frohman had many more things to
tell about Japan, her description of the
many shrines and temples being especially
Intercstnlg. Her trip through China waj
Just as enjoyable. She considers a tour
of this kind a valuable education to any
one. MUCH ORE GOES TO TACOMA
Continental Gold Mine Is Now Send
ing Large Quantities.
The Continental geld mine, of Myrtle
Creek. Douglas County, is now shipping
large quantities of ere te the Tacoma
smelter, and. according to statements
made by Alex Sweek. the secretary of
the company, the Continental is one
of the biggest mines ever discovered
In Oregon. A 59-ton concentrating
plant has been ordered and will be put
in operation very soon. The ore will
concentrate nine tons into one. which
will save freight rates in shipment. A
test recently made by G. E. Alexander,
chemist of the Denver Ore Testing fc
Sampling Company, shows that the con
centrates average fibZ a ton.
The development work in the mine
thus far has consisted in the opening
of three tunnels. The lower tunnel
runs in 500 feet. aM in ore. and shows a
ledge tea to IK feet in width, and- has
a depth of 29 feet from the surface.
A compartment shaft Is also in opera
tion, extending te a depth of 100 feet,
and a crosscut of the ledge shows a
width of 20 feet.
W. B. Stewart, president and man
ager. announces that the shipment of
ore to the Taeema. rm titer amounted
to 512,000., seme ef it assaying over J200
a ton. Itegular shipments to Tacoma,
will be-made-In. the. future.
"We are sending. out such part of the
ore on the dump has "has "been taken
from the oxidized zone.; said Mr. Stew
art. "As It is not the pfan" to Install
amalgamating plates when erecting, the
concentrating- plant -this season, I
tbought.lt advisable to realize on this
now.. Our oxidized zone Is not deep,
not running much below 30 feet of the
ruxface. The shipping ore is found in
a rich body of one or two feet width
on the banging wall side of the vein
for a distance of 200 feet in length. In
all the upper and lower workings this
rich body has been found alongside of
the milling grade. It was quite rich
at the surface, and in the 500-foot tun
nel continues to turn out welL For the
length of the 200-foot shoot tbe vein
averages about 12 feet In width. It is
this ore that will be concentrated as
soon as we get our plant installed."
Mr. Stewart called attention to the
fine display of Orogon minerals at the
Lewis and Clark Exposition as an evi
dence that the raining: industry in Ore
jren Is one of the main resources of the
state, and capable of great development
In the future.
