"PORTLAND COMING i Carnival Eicnrsloo Already Das 200 Reservations ALLEY'S WORK GETS RESULTS Clij B glos toPil od Gala Atliie Spleadld Weather Insures Pleoly o( Berries With his characteristic energy and faculty of doing the right things in the right way and at the right time, Frank E. Alley, assisted by several other prominent Roseburgers, is mak ing Portland sit and take notice of the forthcoming strawberry carnival In this city. He has established headquarters at the Imperial Hotel there and he is directing an adver tising campaign that Is getting re sults. The first day of the carnival, ""rsday, May 16, has been set aside as "Portland Day." Already, says the Portland Oregouian of May 11, more than 200 reservations have been made for the excursion and Mr. Alley reckons upon a still greater In crease before tomorrow. The Ore gonian addB: Mr. Alley promised yesterday that every Portland visitor should have "a chance at more strawberries than he could eat," and the best of hospitality that Koseburg can offer. On Thursday evening after the opening of the carnival, the women of the city will give a reception for the visiting Portland people In the Elks temple. Friday will be devot ed to the fraternal orders, which will have representatives In Roseburg from every part of the state, and on Saturday a big parade of livestock from Douglas County farms will be the main feature of attraction. But at all times throughout the carnival, and everywhere In the city, straw berries are to be as plentiful and as free as are the roses in Portland dur ing the Rose Festival. City Putting On Host Dress. In Roseburg the spirit of civic pride and energy is beginning to manifest itself in a commendable manner for the reception of the visi tors next week.

May 10. For the first time in the history of the Prussian diet, a member today has been for cibly ejected from the chamber by orders from the president of thut body. The member ejected was Dep uty Hprcharrtt. a Socialist, who had frequently interrupted a speaker during an anti-Socialist speech. ie president ordered l'.orrhardt to be seated and on his refusal four police men carried him, violently struggl ing, to the street. (Special to the Evening Review). MINNEAPOLIS, May 11. Two re ports. caused by a split In regard to church regulation of amusements, were submitted to the Methodist Episcopal conference committee to day. The majority report failed to eliminate the amusement clause from the rules of church discipline so lis to allow a wider latitude to church members In this respect. The min ority report favored leaving the ru'e unchanged. This rule leaves to the conscience" of the members the question of dancing, card-playing, theatre going and kindred amuse ments. The bishops In their report urged the re ieal of the rule, but in so do ing said they did not mean that the church should favor such auiu . ments. The assertion is made that the present law is a dead letter and that it would do better to leave the amusement question to the conscience of the members, as stated by John Wesley.

Or.. May. 11 "It Is the most outrageous decision I ever heard of. Judge Han ford is a sur vivor of the dnrk ages. He is crazy with standpattism." Tl'ls Is the language In which W. S.

No. 69 The second Sunday In May has In recent years bad the dis tinction of being "Mothers' Day". Services lu honor of the mother, and In recognition of her faithfulness, gentleness, and devoting to the home, are held In many of the churches and In most of the Sunday schools. The white carnation has been selected as the flower to oe worn on tbe corsage, belt, or coat lapel on Mothers' Day. No flower of tbe garden or field could be a better choice than this to be worn as Mother's own flower. Pure as the drifted snow, spicy and fragrant, and possessing a last ing quality beyond that or Illy or rose, the white carnation stands for all that Mother Is to the family and the race.
