The bond Of kindly feeling; between Portland and her nearest neiKhbors on the Pound was strengthened by the fraternal visit of yesterday. The ex cursionists were never so well pleased with the Rose City nnd the sun never shone Srlg-hter on any 9th of Febru ary than in welcome of the pilgrims from the Everpreen state. There were many exclamations of de light from the travelers as they rode around the Heijjhts yesterday after noon in four special cars and watched the sun gild their own beloved moun tain with lis last "rays. "See how beau tiful Mount Tacoma looks," said one. whope home is on Commencement Bay. "Take your last look at Mount Rain ier for two months." said another, who Maims Seattle for his home. But both factions thought it a good omen that the setting sun should throw a halo upon the peak that looks down upon both Sound ports and Is so well be loved that it Is claimed by each. When the Junketers arrived at 8:30 In their special train of Pullmans they were met at the depot by a number of Portlanders, who showed they were really glad to see the visitors. When the Washington party left at 10 o'clock last nlprht over the Southern Pacitlc for the land of sunshine and flowers they were waved a farewell from the sta tion platform by a crowd of people who wished the parting guests a happy trip and a. safe return. Faternal Spirit Prevails. The visitors felt the kindly spirit that prompted their reception here. They responded to the friendly speeches made to them in the same vein and when they left Portland they carried with them a keen appreciation of Port land's courtesy to them. The rivalry of different sections of the Pacific Northwest was non-existent last night. The Seattle spirit was forgot. The Ta coma champions "boosted" for the whole Northwest Instead o any sec tion, and Portland speeehmakers ex ploited the two states as a paradise like no other section of any country. Cpon reaching Portland the city's . guests found four special cars, fur nished by the Portland Railway Com pany, ready to carry them about Port land. A telegram had already been re ceived by the party tendering the use of the Portland Hotel parlors, and upon the completion of the trolley trip they made that place a rendezvous. After dinner the Commercial Club wa the rallying point. The Ringler gymna sium, adjoining the club quarters, was thrown open and the Washlngtonlans gathered there. Senator Hodson, pres ident of the club, received the guests and Governor Chamberlain welcomed them to Oregon. The Governor spoke of the common purposes of the two states and told how closely the Inter ests of t.h two are united.' He said Oregon Is going to help the .Alaska-Yukon-Pacifie Kxpositlon, and bespoke the assistance of Washington in deep ening the Upper Columbia, which he said is a common waterway. A. R. Tltlow. a prominent Tacoma law yer and chairman of the State Democrat ic Central Committee, responded happi ly. He graciously acknowledged what Washington owes to Oregon and what this state has secured for Its northern neighbor. Mayor Iane turned- the -city over to the Puget Sound party. He said he recog nized the common bond that united the two sections and made It imperative that both should work together for common good. He wished the excursionists a successful and happy trip. tacoma Man Responds. louls W.

WILL BUILD NEW HOME Portland Mowing Club Members 'lake the Initial Steps. Officers of the Portland Rowing Club met last night and discussed plans for the building of a new clubhouse. The old float, which was swept away by the flood last Wednesday, has been recovered and everything found in good condition. It was decided last night to tow the scow back to its moorings and rebuild the boathouse on It. A rough sketch of the proposed new clubhouse was made at the meeting, and the officers decided to In augurate a campaign for money with which to build it. A meeting of the mem bers of the club will be called for next Wednesday evening and at that time steps will be taken to arrange for the building. The new club will be built on shore, about 40 feet above the bank of the river. The club owns a number of lots directly behind the moorings of the present boat house, and the house will be built on these. It will be about 40x75 feet, three stories high and facing the river. The building will be on the plan of a country club, with dance hall, billiard rooms and all modern conveniences. The members of the tlub seem to be In favor of the plan, and as soon as the meeting is held, definite steps will be taken to arrange for raising the .money. PERSONALMENTION. G. M.

Orebaugh, a prominent clergyman and -temperance advocate, says that DUFFY'S PURE MALT HISKEY is a God-Giyen Medicine. Thousands of temperance advocates and clergymen throughout the country agree with Dr. Orebaujrh. and have the courasre of tlieir convictions, to recom mend DUFFY'S riJKE J I ALT WIIIS KEX' as the greatest tonic stimulant and bod j--buil tier known to science. "I have suffered from irrepular ap petite, diarrhoea, then constipation, abnormal, temperature, often 'below normal; at times the memory is dull and I feel stupid. I have tried many treatments with no beneficial results. Pardon me to furthermore say that I have always been opposed to whiskey as a beverage, but have always believed that PURE whiskey used as a medi cine was a God-Given one. I NEVER found PURE until I got "DUFFY'S." The best I could pet eemed to increase my trouble and would burn in my stomach, but. I find nothing disagree able with DUFFY'S. It has done me a vast good and I trust others may use it. through mv recommendation." (Rev.) JOHN C. OREBAUGH. Anderson, Ind., Oct. 2, 190(5.
