There Is also a channel with 24 feet and one with 24 feet. The depth of water does not com up to ex pectations but nevertheless shows that there is a natural scouring process going on at the mouth of the river which will ultimately end in a deep channel. The greatest, trouble experienced at present is on entering the Columbia. Steamers have no starting point in thick weather, but are forced to take an observation on the lightship at a distance of three and a half miles. A memorandum, issued by Colonel S. W. Roessler, United States Engineer, on the findings of the survey party fol lows: One important factor which has been de--eloped by the survey is that the width of the bar is gradually decreasing; that the rear of the preceding division. The grand marshal will head the procession at Sixth and Burnside streets. i The aides in command of divisions are charged with the execution of this order and wlfl .see that their divisions are cor rectly posted and move promptly at the signal march. At Third and Morrison streets, the veteran division will be halted on Third street. The field music will take position In front of the Grany Army of the Re public, which will then lead this division and the division will resume the march. As the column passes the monument to the dead of- the Second Oregon Regiment, each div'sion will salute. The line of march is as follows: East on Burnside to Sixth, south on Sixth to Washington, east on Washington to Third, south on Third to Morrison, west on Morrison to Fifth, south on Fifth to Salmon, east on Salmon to Fourth, south on Fourth to Madison, west on Madi son to FarK, - south on Park to Mill, west on Mill to West Park, north on West Park to Taylor, east on Taylor to Sixth, north on Sixth to Alder. Review ing stand will be at Sixth and Morrison. Parade will disperse by divisions on Aider street. The committee on parade requests that all business-houses and dwellings on the line of march decorate with the National colors. .Programme of Exercises. Patriotic exercises will be held at 11 A. M.. immediately after the column has passed. George H. Williams has been selected as guest of honor, and "Henry L. Plttock as president of the day.

Tempting cash awards have been offered and each event is to be closely contested. Boat crews from the Charleston and Paul Joqea are engaged in daily practice for MAP, SHOWING CHANNELS AT M the shoal part is at present very narrow, and it will, only be a matter of a short time when this will scour off. If the dredge Chinook was in -condition to 'go into service at the present she could make a 30-foot channel within a short time. It is the intention of the Lighthouse De partment to buoy the South channel im mediately. .Results of the survey have been given Superintendent Hart and the Heather will leave down in the morning for the purpose of setting buoys on the channel charted by the engineers. At present mariners run on the old channel as far as the Inner bar buoy and then haul due south. Ranges are taken on the Washington shore about' Mackenzie Head or Cape Dissapointment. The annual survey of the bar at the mouth of the Columbia River was made in June, 1907. The survey discloses four separate channels aeroes the bar south of the 1909 channel and about midway between the lat ter and the present end of the Jetty enroek menl. The channels are scattered over about C00 feet of the bar crest, one having 24 feet. the races. The programme as announced yesterday is as follows: 10 A.

Snowy Peaks on Fire.' Mount Hood, . Mount Adams and Mount St. Helens will burst into red fire late at night. Arrangements have been made for thjs feature so that it cannot fail unless the peaks chance to' be obscured by inclement weather, which is thought not at all -likely. The Stars and Stripes will be hoisted early In the morning. At 11 o'clock Mount Hood will be ablaze. Mount St. Helens at 11:05. and Mount Adams at 11:10. R. H.

The Improved Order of Redmen have joined efforts with the parade committee to make the parade one of the best Portland has had. Contracts have ben- let by the Redmen for building floats to represent "Penn's Treaty with the Indians," "Washing ton Crossing the Delaware," and "Po cahontaA Interceding for the Life of Captain Smith." . These three living pictures will be put on in a very strik ing and life-like manner. The costumes to be used have been ordered out from a Chicago costumer. OUTH OF COLOMBIA RIVER. one 24 feet and twt 2544 feet at the ehoalest point, at mean lower low water. As yet the channels are narrow and It may be that their increased depths may not be available until the width' of channel has been increased by natural scour. ' The breaking through of the bar crest at this point was forecast -from last year's survey and a close study of the map. of 1906 and 190T clearly demonstrates that these four channels will continue to widen and deepen and eventually merge Into one broad channel with greater depth than has been realized for some years past. . The .last survey alco shows that there has been a slight shoaling going on over the bar in vicinity of the 1908 channel and that there Is at present no decided depression across the bar along the present buoyed chan nel as there was laat year. I It is hoped that the next Congress will authorize the repair o the dredge Chinook, in order that she may again be placed on the bar.. It Is believed that a dredge could do most effective service at the present time In aiding the Increased scour, which is now manifesting ltnlf, and in hastening th crea tion of a broad, deep channel. GIRL JUMPS INTO RIlfEH YOUNG WOMAN SEEKS DEATH IN THE WILLAMETTE. Rescued and Taken to Hospital, Where Examination Indicates . She Is Insane. A young woman, whose name could not be learned, attempted to commit suicide by jumping from the Taylor-street dock into the river about 8 o'clock last night and was rescued by Arnold Stevens, an 18-year-old lad, who heard the splash and went to her relief. Toting Stevens, who is employed by G. Covah & Co., In a fish market at First and Jefferson streets, was engaged in loading his delivery wagon with empty flsh boxes on the dock, when he was at tracted by the sound of a splash in the water, and rushing' to the end of the wharf, saw a woman struggling in the water about three feet below him. The high water made it almost possible for him to reach the woman, but spying an umbrella, evidently dropped by the would be suicide, he caught it up and with the hooked handle managed to get a hold on the woman's clothes. He held her head above water until assistance arrived from police headquarters. Detective Ser geant Baty and Patrolman Graves assist ed Stevens in hauling the wet and shiver ing woman onto the dock and placing her into the patrol wagon and conveying her to the Good Samaritan Hospital. She- gave every evidence of insanity while on the way to the hospital, and when examined there it was announced that all her actions indicated dementia. The hospital authorities were unable to secure a. coherent statement from the woman after restoratives had been ad ministered, and the police were also un able to learn anything of her identity. She is a blonde, about five feet six inches In height, and was dressed In dark clothes and white waist, with a light sailor hat- Goes to Swakopmifnd in An to. BERLIN. June 29.

Will Appeal to the Voters at Next Election for the Right of Suffrage. NO HELP FROM THE EAST Interference in Campaign Will Not Be Brooked, and Pursestrings of the National Organization Are . Drawn Tight. All is din and bustle in the camp of the Oregon State Equal Suffrage Association, where, available forces are being mar shaled for war. Undaunted by the defeat of last Winter, the women suffragists are determined to battle their way to victory at the next Legislature, by means of tHe initiative and referendum law, and they are starting in thus early so as to be able to take Salem by storm when the state's Solons convene in 1909. The Initial rally was held at the home of the president, Mrs. Abigail Scott Dun iway. 292 Clay street, yesterday, when the executive board and working members convened in monthly meeting. Aside from a few purely routine matters, the equal suffragists gave their whole time and attention to consideration of plans for tho big campaign which they propose to Inaugurate to secure the ballot for the women of Oregon. "And be It understood." said, the presi dent, addressing the gathering, "that we are going to run this campaign ourselves. The last time . we had victory in sight, and would have succeeded, only that the women from the East, the workers from the National organization, came out here to help us. That was what finished us. If they had let us alone, we would have won. They came here and took matters right out of our hands, changed our plans, and brought defeat upon us. This time we will brook no interference or assistance from Eastern ; workers. We will conduct our own campaign, and we are going to win." Note From Mrs. Anna B. Shaw. The sentiment of Mrs. Duniway was In dorsed by the vigorous nodding plumes and silk-mull roses from all sides. The entente cordjale between the state asso ciation and the National organization has not been quite as warm as of old for some time, and It Was not improved by a sweet note from Mrs. Anna B. Shaw, a few days ago, in which she expressed her hope that the Oregon suffragists would pull through successfully' in their cam paign, but in which she dodged the ques tion of financial assistance from the $100,000 Kational fund. "I am pleased to note," the letter ran, "that you have several very wealthy persons on your ad visory board, upon whom it will be no tax to assist you." "In other words," said Mrs. Duniway, "we are turned down cold, and we must raise the money ourselves for our cam paign.' Mrs. Shaw hints that we should expect our assistance from the members of our advisory board because they hap pen to be wealthy. We never have asked a cent from our advisory board, and I don't think we shall have to. We will get the money though, tor I am going out af Lor it myself. . I am very much -itshamed, knowing that we have $100,000 in our own National treasury, to have to do this, but Oregon cannot afford to give up the fight just because the National organization refuses to' help, after al ready spoiling 4ne campaign for us. We are going to get the. money, and we are going to have our big petition ready, with every defect remedied, and we are going to have the question of equal suffrage before, the people of Oregon, and we know we'll succeed, because we are go ing to do it ourselves, and not use other people's methods, or let them interfere with ours." Petition Blanks Distributed. There was more nodding of plumes and silk-mull roses, and this time there were more plumes and roses to nod, for more women suffragists had dropped in. The new petition blanks, complying with every provision of the law. Including the affidavit on the back of each page, re quired by the new regulation In regard to petitions, were exhibited and ex plained. Several members carried away as many blanks a they believed they could fill and verify, and the campaign of 1909 for the women's ballot in Oregon was begun. Profiting by experience, the association will see that there is no point left open for attack on technicality, or other ground, In securing the new pe tition. About $Z09 will be required for the work, and Mrs. Duniway expects to have no difficulty in getting this. A vote of thanks was tendered Mrs. Rufus Mallory for the use of her parlors for the association meetings during the last campaign, and she was also elected an honorary member. MUSICALE FOR "JACKIES" Invitation Accepted by Officers and Sailors of the Charleston.

Advocates District Plan of Prepara tion Fiesta Can Be Made At tractive to Tourists. Drawing from the lessons of the recent Rose Show and Fiesta, K. F. Cannon, chairman of the committee cn parades and one of the most active workers of the management, has made a number of valuable deductions and suggestions bear ing on the Rose Carnivals of the future. In an Interview yesterday, Mr. Cannon said: Our recent Carnival and Roa Show vm lined from its Inciplency with obstacles and difficulties to b overcome befor uccess could be obtained, and I consider it my duty to call the attention of our enthusf actio friends and leading; cltiiena to the many dis advantages, so that they may be corrected for future events of this character. - Our leading citizens' should be enthused per sonally from pride in their city, and assist In the exhibition for its many advantages and also to organize at once a Heights, Nob Hill, Monnt Tabor or University Park, etc., carni cal committee, to confer with the main asso ciation regarding the handling of the work in a businesslike manner In their respective dis tricts. No district that Is worthy of having a distinctive name should sleep on its rights, but let the late show be a criterion as- to fu ture advantages by referring to Portland Heights, Mount Tabor and Woodstock prize fioats of the late fiesta as prize winners, hence each district should organize and elect some of their public-spirited members at once to represent them in perfecting plans for future carnivals. The advantage to ths dis trict representatives as well as to the parent organization can only be understood when we state that in unity of purpose and con solidation of efforts by each individual dis trict having Its personal representatives as co-worker In the cause, can the larger ef forts be obtained, and by taking the district work up at once, each section can readily learn from the parent or central organization Just what the future plans are, and thus be abie to co-operate in the work. An auxiliary organization should be per fected at once for constructing H manner of floats and to furnish high-class talent for decorative purposes, thus enabling the asso ciation to assure those desiring to participate that their plans for floats, etc., could be properly executed in due season and In an artistic manner. A word to liverymen: Only three tallynos are obtainable in the city. There should be at least 10 to supply th necessary require ments for musical organizations and private participants in the future. Owing to the peculiar nature of a floral exhibition, when a call Is made for flowers for1 decorating the official float carriages, au tomobiles, etc.- each citizen should felF it a part of hla personal duty to contribute to th success of the event, not only to contribute flowers, but to see personally that they are delivered to the place designated and at the hour mentioned. No little confusion was caused on Thursday and Friday. June 21 and 22, by people sending their contributions of flowers to the Forestry building instead of. the Armory and Multnomah Club. Thus our plans were naturally hampered. Each con tribution In the future should be dJvered In person. These obstacles were partially over coma by the assistance of the street railway and express wagons, which came to our as sistance and gathered this material for us, which material naturally, without the neces sary personal care, could not reach us in prime condition. This annual event, to my mincu can os made the basis of much commercial value to our city by attracting during the Summer season many American tourists and conven tions. All this will serve to estabiisn tne fact of our beautiful climate and many at tractive points of Interest, for the Summer tourists. Florida boasts of 30.000 and Cali fornia 20,000 tourists each year. Let Oregon, by her supreme effort, inure in this , heretofore undeveloped crop and in the future cultivate for It, as it will surely be her upon our making the proper effort.
