FREIGHT DEPOTS If the various railroads handling farm products and other freights in and out of Oregon City feel inclined to better their conditions here, the proposition the Live Wires have sug gested for freight depots should be grabbed up and steps immediately taken to help the situation. It is an outrage the way Oregon City ship pers and consigners must handle their rail shipments to and from our city. We have had our chicken show, and horse show and a good one, and the horseless carriage has had its turn. Why not have a general animal show with cows of all breeds, pigs, sheep, goats, etc., as the drawing card. More money can be made out of animal breeding than many of us imagine. Someone suggest this to the Publicity Committee. This is a dairy, wool and hog raising country and such a show would no doubht stimulate the breed ing of thoroughbreds. Congress is considering reducing the appropriation for forest patrol from $500,000 to about $275,000 per annum. While the Forestry Department is do ing a great work along the line of fire prevention, the amount approp riated in former years has not been sufficient for the proper handling of the enormous task this department has before it, and it is to be hoped that our Congressmen will not agree to this false economy, for in the pre servation of our timber, especially from loss of fire, lies our future suc- And now it is up to the officials of the Portland Railway, Light & Power Co. to show the Fair Fares Commit tees of the four Clackamas County Commercial Clubs why Canemah, Gladstone, Jennings Lodge and Ore gon City are not entitled to better rates both cash and ticket.

The Oregon Railroad Com mission, and the committees are de termined to see the matter through. The Enterprise hopes to see an amic able settlement at Friday night's meet ing. The Tuesday Night Bridge Club was entertained in a most delightful man ner by Mr. and Mrs. Eber A. Chap man at their home on Sixth and Wash ington streets Tuesday evening. The prizes were won by M. D. Latourette and Mrs. L. E. Jones. The decora tions were artistic, being of dogwood blossoms. A luncheon was served. Present were Mr. and Mrs. L. E. Jones, Mr. and Mrs. M. D. Latourette, Mr. and Mrs. E. P. Rands, Dr .and Mrs. A. L. Beatie, Dr. and Mrs. H. S. Mount, Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Shewman, of Risley, Mr. and Mrs. H. E. Straight, Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Lewthwaite.

He is a pitiable object of her husband if he cannot toss the piping flapjack or coax the flavor from the carrot to the soup. The engaged girl usually does not consider in her BEAUTIFUL dream of things as they should be the drowsy breakfast time. That's where the husband's business of cooking comes in. Let him jump CHEERILY from bed, tell the wife to snuggle comfortably in the blankets and then let him go down and turn out a - mess for himself. " ? JACKSON AND GREGG FOOL X CHANCE AND EVER3. T The friends, of Frank Chance 4- and Johnny Evers of the C.hica- X go tubs ure telling some stories 4- at their expense, it appears that X when Chance lauded iu New Or- 4- leans for the 11)12 spiiug train ing trip lie saw a lanky youth pitching in practice and noted that he had a "lot of stuff" on the hall. He thought the pitcher was one of his new recruits, and his face brightened, but only for an instant, for on asking the youngster's name he discovered that it was Vean Gregg, the brilliant pitcher of the Cleveland team, who was working out with the Cubs before the arrival of his own teammates. Before the players were through laughing at the mistake of their manager Johnny Evers furnish ed another opportunity for a haw-haw. Going up to an out fielder, who was pulling down flies in a most amazing way, he inquired carelessly if he hoped to make the team. "I'm not try ing for this team," came the an swer. "Oh," responded Evers, "just a home boy getting a little exercise." The smiling rejoinder almost threw Evers into another attack of nervous prostration, for the "home boy" replied. "I'm Joe Jackson of the Cleveland team." SEVERAL BALL PLAYERS BECOME MAGNATES. Finally Reap the Results of Their La bors on the Diamond. The day when the baseball player is reaping the fruits of his labor Is at hand. In the old days the magnates knew but little baseball, being in the game merely because they had the cap ital. The ball players were poorly paid, and when they were unable to play they entered other vocations. It is different now. Not only does the average player receive far more remuneration than in the "good old days," but they are gradually creeping into the financial department of the game and sharing in the proceeds of the game which they helped to build up. - Comiskey, once a first baseman and not a richly salaried one at that, is now a millionaire owner In Chicago.

Electra, Queen of the Mountains (By Bert Parsons.) Electra, queen of the mountains, From her realm mid the ice and the snow, Descends on the streams from their fountains To he wed to the king dynamo. Tell us, oh queen of your rambles! From your home in the ica and the snow. - " Of your path over rocks and through brambles Where the low murmuring rivulets flow. Have your jilted the Frost King, Boreas, With his locks all silvered with snow? Is his voice that erst was uproar ious, All silenced or murmuring low? "From our realm in the .. mountains we travel And we wear sparkling gems as we go, Nor heed we the gold in the gravel; For our mission is low as you know, Let Boreas moan in his fetters, With his dull eyes in rage all aglow, He should learn not to yearn for his betters, He is naught to the queen of the snow." "I am flirting awhile with the turblns, At the falls, where the cataracts flow, But the voice of my love on the winds Says, 'come to your loved dynamo.' " "He breaths on the wires till they tingle; And he s.ets all the cities aglow; He turns all the wheels, till they jingle; For Electra, the queen of the snow." Going to Bed In India. Going to bed in India is a very dif ferent process from going to bed at home. To begin with. ltis a far less formal process. There is in the hot season no shutting of the door, no cut ting yourself off from the outer world, no going upstairs and finally no getting into bed. You merely lie down on your bed. which, with its bedding, Is so sim ple as to be worth describing. The bed is a wooden frame witb a webbing laced across it, and each bed has a thin cotton mattress. Over this one sheet is spread, nud two pillows go to each bed. bolsters not being used, That's all. Some people do not even have the mattress, preferring the cool ness of a piece of fine matting. A Chinese Epicure. "The cooks of today," wrote Yuan Mel, a Chinese author of the nineteenth century,' "think nothing of "mixing in one soup the meat of chicken, duck, pig and goose. But these chickens, ducks, pigs and geese have doubtless souls, and. these souls will most cer tainly file plaints in the next world of the way they have teen treated In this. A good cook will use plenty of differ ent dishes. Each article of food will be made to exhibit its own character istics,, while each made dish will be characterized by one dominant flavor. Then the palate of the gormand will respond without freak and the flowers of the soul blossom forth." YOUR DAY. Today is your day and mine, the only day we have, the day in which we play our part What our part may signify in the great whole we may not understand, but we are. here to play our part, and now is our time to play it. This we know : It is a part of action, not of whining. It is a part of love, not of cynicism. It is for us to express love in terms of human helpfulness. David Starr Jordan. John Burroughs, Vigorous At the Age of Seventy-five I XI 1 V ' j ft 1 r4f.- " I: Photo by American Press Association. 0 NLY one living American naturalist can compete in popularity with John Burroughs "faunal naturalists," of course, being barred and It Is appropriate that the other man, John Muir, should be a close friend of the sage of Slabsides. That Is the name which Mr Burroughs has given to his mountain retreat overlooking the Hudson, a little distance from his more formal but still very simple home near West Park. N. Y. In these beautiful surroundings he works with his pen or in his fields or ranges the woods, winter and summer, vigorous and alert, for all his seventy-five years. If anything ever disturbs the calm of his idyllic existence it is the writings of the "nature fakers." as he regards the makers of books in which animals are endowed with human Intelligence books to be records of sober tacts, a lew his opinions on this style of writing, raged between be two schools of naturalists. PIONEER FAMILIES TO CELEBRATE TODAY. Just sixty years ago today the in habitants of early Oregon assembled at Champoeg, on the Willamette Riv er, and decided they would be sub jects of the United States rather than of Great Britain. Old residents will celebrate the day by a meeting at Champoeg. Ex-Governor Geer will preside. F. V. Holman, president of the Oregon Historical Society, and George H. Himes will speak. The boat will leave the dock at the foot of Tayior street Portland at 6:45 o'clock this morning, and will connect with a train at Wilsonville. The Ore gon Electric train will leave the North Bank depot, Portland, at 9 : 15, and will stop at Jefferson street. Champoeg was formerly the site of the first Hudson Bay Company's ware house. In 1843, when the Champoeg convention was called, it was consid ered the center of population, and was, therefore, selected by settlers as their meeting place. A sm,all monument erected by the state now marks the spot. An effort is being made to add 12 acres to the threecre plot and convert the whole into a state park. The celebration today wilLbe under the auspices of the F. X. Matthleu Cabin of the Native Sons of Oregon Mr. Matthleu, the only surviving mem ber of the convention will attend. Four Governor In One Year. In one year once the state of Maine enjoyed the novelty of having four governors. The year was 1843. Gov ernor Fairchild was elected to serve that year, but resigned. He was suc ceeded by Governor Kavenaugh. presi dent of the senate, but he also resign ed. Then Governor Dunn, speaker of the assembly, took the cbair. and he was succeeded by Governor Dana, president of the senate. Governor An derson was eiet-ted for the year 1844.

Today's game between Hogan's Tigers and McCredie's champions was post poned on account of wet grounds. When asked if he would trade Ben ny Henderson, his star twirler, to the San Francisco Seals for Harry Suter Manager McCredie said, "Sure, and in a minute." Henderson has not been going right ia qq ar,n -onf-h th Rpavprs and probaDy a change would do him good. Danny Long has been trying to sell McCredie Suter for $2000, hut the Beaver manager thinks that Long's price is too high. - Suter woud come in "handy with the Beavers "right now and Henderson would add a great deal of strength to the Seals pitching staff if he remains "on the wagon." Whether McCredie will trade Hend erson for Suter remains to be seen but it is doubtful whether the local fans would agree to the trade., as Hen derson Is a big drawing card here. McCredie did not say whether or not the trade would take place; The results Wednesday follow: At San Franclscc San Francisco 7, Sacramento 1. At Los Angeles Oakland 7, Los An geles 7.

According, to this information the outlook for Roy al Annes is far the best ever known. All sections report more profuse blooming than during any recent sea son . while the acreage is naturally greater. While a large per cent of the ex pected crop is .already under contract to canners, unless something happens there will be more than a sufficient amount of stock to take care of every want of the fresh fruit trade. The same condition applies to early apples in all of the leading growing sections.
