All Sections of Stale Will Be Repre sented at Qrand Fiesta. Portland" If the coming Rose Fes tival Is not the greatest success we have ever had, It will not be because of lack of Interest on the part of resi dent of the Willamette valley and Southern Oregon towns," said Ralph W. Hoyt, of tha Rose Festival com mittee. Mr. Hoyt ha just returned with a party of business men who went on the southern trip, and I enthusiastic over the great amount of Interest in the Rose Festival he found In the towns be visited. "Indications are that the attendance this yesr will be enormous, and far be yond that of former year," said Mr. HnyL "Officials of all the towns we visited promised they would see to it that their towns are represented by float or vehicles In the parades, and at leaat by large delegations of cltl tcna. "The commercial bodies of the varl oua towns all promised to make all possible effort to meet Eastern visitors at the Festival and Invito them to their towns. Everybody seems to un derstand that the Festival Is as much an advertising feature fur the country at large as it is a show. I think the Festival this year will be the means of Inducing great numbers of desirable Eastern people to settle in the state." TOO MUCH FOR LIGHTS. Experiments With Meter Shows Big Saving Over Flat Rata. SalemRcginning Juno 1, the state of Oregon will buy electricity for all state institutions by meter instead of on a flat rate aa at present, which, it is believed will mean s saving to the state of from $3,000 to $5,000. As an experiment about year ago meters were installed and a result the change will be made at once. During 11 months, beginning June 1, 1909, and ending April 30, 1910, the state paid the Portland Railway, Light & Power company $12,048.31 at a flat rate for light which would have been at meter rates ;$9.838.05, or s ssving of $2,210.26. No effort was made to conserve the power for light under the flat rate, while every uper intendent of the state institutions un der the meter system will be instructed not to burn light not absolutely need ed, so Governor Benson and the new chief clerk, H. H. Corey, believe the ssving will reach nearly $5,000 a year. The state also pay $123 per month, flat for power otherwise than that util ised for lights, or during the 11 months mentioned a total of $1,853. Under the meter rates the bill for power would have been, for the same period, $429. Crop Prospects Not Dimmed. Pendleton Still another, week has gone by without in any way dimming the prospect of Umatilla county farm ers for a record-breaking grain crop. Warm weather ha prevailed during the greater part of the week and one r iwn d.uuI ahnwera have been Inter spersed to further aid Ue growing grain. Both fall . and spring sown grain ia now well up out of the ground and the fields present beautiful ap pearance with their verdant clothing. The early spring season has never shown such favorable indications for a bumper crop, and their predictions are having a decided effect upon the busi ness of tho city. Lsnd Tsken Off Msrket. Hood River Tho Davidson Fruit company, which owns several acre of valuable orchards, haa taken its hold ings off tho market for this season. The company will have a large lot of apples and in view of the fact that fruit will be very scarce In other sec tions this season and that the crop will be extra large here the company feels justified in retaining thia year's crop and reaping the profits before dispos ing of it holding. Barries Ripe at Umatilla. Umatilla The first strawberries of tho season were put on the market here early last week and came from the Me Farlnnd and Edwards ranches. The berries are a good sixe and much more luscious than the California fruit Cherries arc now beginning to ripen and will bo put on the market soon. New School at Creswell. Crcswoll By vote of 57 to 9 the Creswell school district authorised the ssunnce of bonds for $10,000, the pro heeds to he used In erecting s school bouse. The plan to remodel the old building had a few supporters st first, fut they dropped tho proposition and favored erecting a new building. Or Find Drws Miners. Myrtle Creek Excltemont among miners has been caused by recent find four miles above Canyonville, whero a wide dike of 6re, carrying chalcopyrlte yielding $14 to $26 to the ton, ha boon discovered. Seventeen locations wero made and several more will be made Immediately. Drilling for Artesian Water. Stanfiold The well on Jesse Moore's place hns reached s depth of 800 feet. An effort Is being made to reach a depth of 1,000 feet where artesian water Is said to be obtainable. Water stands within a few feet of the top of the hole, and drilling progresses slowly. ST. HELENS, OREGON, FKIDAY. RAINS SPELL BIO CROPS. Oregon Farmers 8 Healthy Har vests Ahesd; Stockmen Profit. Mudrss The increased demand for flour at this place haa. caused the Mad ras flouring mill to put on s night force, the mill running each night un til 10 p. m. The railroad construction In thia vl cinly with the large number of new resident in the town and homeseekers locating in this" section have caused prices for all kinds of produce to go soaring. Prospects for large crops were never better, and the farmer in this section should reap a rich harvest, because of the rapid increase of population. A heavy rain, general throughout the greater portion of Central Oregon, fell during three days this week, and it means thousands of dollars to the farmers and stock raisers. The Dalles Farmer throughout Wasco county have about finished sum mer fallowing, and some of them are still sowing spring grain. Owing to the heavy rains the first of the week, which wet the ground thoroughly, good many farmers have concluded to seed to spring crops a considerable number of acre which they bad plowed for summer fallow. They say there ia sufficient moisture to mske a good spring crop if the summer season is st sll favorable. CHINESE BUYS CLAIMS. Grants Pass Mining District Looks Good Moy Jin Munn. Grants Pass Moy Jin Munn, a wealthy Chinaman of San Francisco, who haa been looking over the South ern Oregon mining field for the past two or three week, haa just closed a deal whereby he becomes owner and manager of the Brantner group of placer mines of Southern Josephine county. The group of claims consists of 100 acres, much of which is very rich diggings. The consideration is $175,000. Unlike other Chinese who have mined in this section, Moy Jin Munn is not contented with sluice washing and rocking. He will install modem hydraulic equipment on the Brantner mines, and by a system of high line ditches, bring water from the Applegate river for the operation of a battery of two or more giants. Moy Jin Munn ia an experienced placer miner and made his fortune in the digging of Feather river, CaL Drill for Oil in Coquille. Marshfield The Niocene Oil Gas company has been organized to drill for oil in the Coquille valley. The company is composed of men living in that part of the county. L. W. Deyoe of Myrtle Point is one of the head men in the company. The company has se cured oil leases on about 6,000 acres of land in Bear creek district Machinery has been ordered and the work will start soon.

Hundreds Killed st Cartago, Costa Rica Bodies Being Recovered. Sen Jose, Costs Rica, May 7. The earthquake that laid waste the town of Cartago occurred at 6 :60 o'clock Wednesdsy night snd continued about 18 seconds. In thst brief time the buildings of the place collapsed, bury ing hundreds. The dead were first es timated at 600, but it is believed to night that the fatalities were much greater. Four hundred bodies were recovered today. Following 'the shock twilight was turned into dsrkness of midnight by clouds of dust that rose from the ruins. Panic ensued and the cries of the injured and fleeing nurvivors filled the sir. Cooler heads went to the telegraph office to summon help, only to find the operators dead, lines down and traffic impaired on the reailroad. As soon as the new reached San Jose, President Gonzales Vieques, ac companied by President-elect Richard Jimines andd many doctors and nurses, started on a special train to aid the survivors. Upon the president's ar rival at Cartago, martial law was pro claimed. Provisions, medicines and clothing were dispatched from here. Throughout the day special trains ar rived here, bringing the wounded. Hundreds of survivors were camped outside the ruined city awaiting trans portation to other points. They are being fed at public expense. Seven oar loads of provisions have been dis patched from here and Alajuela. The beautiful peace palace, the gift of Andrew Carnegie, erected at a cost of $100,000, wss converted into a pile of debris. Other public buildings met the ssme fate. Many students at the college of the Silestan Fathers were killed. The tremors continue tonight and the terror of the people increases. The fear of further shocks haa extended to the neighboring towns. Only the early hour of the evening at which the disaster occurred pre vented a much greater loss of life. At the time many people were in the open. So far no deaths have been reported among the American colony. The disaster waa not preceded by any activity of the volcano Poas or of other volcanic vents. The shock was felt throughout Costa Rica and in parts of Nicaragua. Great fissures opened at many places in the volcanic zone. The ministers of Mexico and of Cen tral American countries have asked their governments to contribute to the aid of their sister republic. Several prominent Spanish-Americans are among the dead. These include the wife of Dr. Becanegra, the Guatema lan magistrate to the Central Ameri can arbitration court, and Senor Trejos. APACHES ATTACK WOMAN. Prospector With Clubbed Revolver Makes Rescue Against Odds. Globe, Aril., May 7 Drunken JApa che attacked the ranch of Daniel Ma- ben, four miles East of Globe, last night in quest of Maben, who had killed an Apache several months ago. Maben is now in the, territorial insane asylum and only his wife and 16-year-old daughter were at the ranch. Eugene Barrows, a prospector, res cued Mrs. Maben and her daughter af ter thrilling encounter. Using hi weapon as a club, Barrows fought his way through the Indiana, who numbered half a dozen. The last one attacked him with a knife and Barrows broke the revolver over his head. Barrows and the women succeeded in reaching the Sixty-Six ranch, half mile away, and came into Globe this morning. Big Soap Factory Burns. Kansas City, Mo., May 7 The plant of the Peet Bros.
