BIG TIME LOOKED
FOR STOCK SHOW
Portland Plans to Entertain Many
Visitors During the
Fair.
' Portland, Or., Sept. 7. Extrnord
imiry attractions nro booked for the
coming annual meet of the Portland
' Fnir and Live Stock Show, durinsr
the week of September 20-25, nnd
the event is expected to be the hig
hest of its kind ever held in the nortb
. west. IInrne...s and running races,
livestock show and special features
will occupy the six days. ' Probably
the biggest days will be Thursday,'
September 23. which is Willamette
Valley day, and Friday. September
2-1, which is Columbia Hiver Valley
day.
The first will be open day for all
the towns of western Oregon where
the livestock industry and the harness
racing game have, been so well de:
veloped of recent years. Officials
mid commercial bodies of the various
towns willco-operate with the com
mittee in making it a big occasion.
The following day, too, will be mark
ed by the presence of thousands of
out-of-town guests, as. attractive
railroad rates have been made from
all points. In addition Friday will
be ladies' day and special events will
be carded.
President Wehrung of the associ
ation has taken up the work of or
ganizing his committee and they will
get to work at once to make the
forthcoming meet the most notable
ever held in this section of the coun
try. The meet will be held on the
grounds of the association east of
this city. This year's sessioW will,
undoubtedly, have a mtirked effect
in building up the livestock industry
in ths Pacific northwest.
Annual Harvests,;
Oregon's many product; that are
now being gathered at Kb annual
harvest are adding largely to the
wealth of the state and the various
items that enter into the yearly re
turn from the soil make a fine show
ing individually i and collectively.
The state's wool clip, which has now
been about all marketed, will put $4,
000,000 in the pockets of sheep rai
sers of the state. The year's clip
amounted to 20,450,000 iouiids of
fine quality and good prices were re
alized, eastern Oregon wool getting a
maximum price of 23 cents and the
Willamette valley crop reaching a top
price of 20 cents. The season was
ideal for wool growers. Fleeces were
heavier thau usual and ths grade of
the product is high. The wool money
will be divided quite generally through
out the state. '
A remarkable shipment of big Ore
gon logs were loaded on board the
steamship Kinnium S. Dollar here
this week. ' The logs are very large,
being lO.'j feet long and 40 feet in
firciunfereiice. There are twenty-four
of the big sticks and they are being
consigned to China, where they will
be used to rebuild the temple Ling
Yen, the most famous house of wor
ship in all China. The Chinese gov
ernment purchased them here for the
purpose. They will be rafted up the
Grand Canal in China for 200 miles
and taken overland six miles to the
temple. The only possible way to
get the big sticks this distance is for
coolies to carry them on their backs.
This seems impossible but it is ac
tually done in China in transporting
big, timbers over mountain trails, as
will be done in this case.
Probably the largest shipment of
pheasants ever raised in captivity by
one grower in the country will be
shipped by R. F. Simpson, of Lebanon
to the Idaho game wurden, and the
birds will be turned loose to stock
the state for the Idaho hunters. Mr.
Simpson will send n carload nnd he
is said to be the only man in America
woh could fill such a big order.
Miss Helen Claremont Will Open New
Ladies' Gymnasium.

schools will meet daily from 4:15 to
5:15 p. in. Ladies' class at 10 a. m.

HOOD KIVKK, Or., Sept. 7. At u
largely attended meeting of the fruit
growers of Hood Hiver valley hold at
the Commercial club rooms Saturday
evening, it was decided to hold an
iiniiunl apple fair to take the plueo of

tiou of which ho will furnish the fuir

ed president of the association nnd C.
D. Thompson secretary.

TRAVEL FROM ENGLAND
TO VIEW CRATER LAKE
Traveling clear across the Atlan
tic to sec Crater Lake, two distin
guished British scientists, Ernest L.
Dixon of the geological survey of
Great Britain and Sidney II. Rey
nolds of University College, Bristol,
arrived in Modford Monday and left
for the lake after a few hours' stay,
where they will study what is de
clared by geologists to he the most
interesting section of the globe.
Both were very much interested in'
the lake and spent several hours talk
ing with Mayor Canon nnd others re
garding the trip.
MANY CHANGES
AT CAMP ARANT
Buildings Reconstructed in a More
Substantial Manner to With
stand Winter Weather.
KLAMATH FALLS, Or., Sept. 7.-
J. A. A rant, superintendent of Crater
Lake national park, arrived in the
city this morning and states that the
weather up there is ideal and- that
this is the very best time of the year
to visit the lake. Work on the build
ings that wore damaged last year
has progressed to such an extent as
to be almost completed, and he .be
lieves that the character of construc
tion followed this time will insure the
resistance of any weight of snow. The
roofs of the buildings, have been giv
en a three-quarters pitch, anil the
probabilities are that very little snow
will remain on them.
The number of visitors this year
will undoubtedly equal that of lust
season, when all records were broken.
During the past month fully 25(10
people registered, and this does not
represent the "full number of those
going there, for there were many who
faild to affix their signatures to the
register. There were people from all
parts of the world, anil all were unan
imous in their expression of surprise
nnd admiration, and the prediction
was general that it -would bo tile
most popular scenic attraction in all
of the world within a few years.
Considerable work has been done
ou the highways and this will be con
tinued until the close of the season.
The work had necessarily to be lim
ited on .account of the lack of funds,
but every effort has been put forth
to have the work done where it would
be productive of the best results.
Mr. Arant expects to return to the
lake -in a few days. '
APPLE PACKERS

HOOD RIVER, Or.. Sept. 7.At a

opera house Saturday evening the

schedule was adopted : Five cents per

WASHINGTON OBELISK
CHIPPING TO PIECES
WASHINGTON, Sept. 7. The
Washington monument becume an ob
ject of interest to Washington's old
est inhabitants Sunday. For several
days persons have "been picking up
small pieces of marblo and cement,
identical with the material used in
the monument. This started a story
that the monument was cracking and
in danger of falling. Many who heard
the-story took advantage of the Sun
day holidny to visit the monument to
see it fall. The monument watchmen
say it is not uncommon for pieces of
marble to drop from the shaft from
time to time, but they attnch no sig
nificance to it.

CHICAGO UNIVERSITY
IS SELF SUPPORTING
CHICAGO,' Sept. '".--The Univer
sity of Chicago is now soll'-stippni't-ing
and in no need of further dona
tions from its founder, John D. liock
efellcr, according to Dr. Thomas
Ooodspeed, registrar of the univer
sity, (loodspeed said today:
"The niversity's hooks no longer
show a deficit as thev formerly did
each year. Consequently the millions
Mr. Rockefeller has given for general
endowment will not have to bo sup
plemented by more."
The registrar, however, lost no time
in adding that the oil king would not
be lacking in any opportunity to con
tinue las' donations. That Rockefeller
will not be deprived of the chance was
accented by the statements of Presi
dent Jiidsou, who declared that a
number of new structures were need
ed.
''N'obody has donated funds for a
single school hall on the south of the
Midway,"' ho said.
