final trial matches will have the hon
or of meeting the English team Jn

ROBBERY
ALL CONDONED
PHILADELPHIA, June 6 Walter
F. Shourds, a trusted employe of the
M-arehants' Union Trust company,
who robbed that bank of $1,400,000
in securities and $30,000 in cash, who
has been huntad by the police and
detectives, came ipto court here to
day, conf essed 'his crime and made
restitution.
Judge Hall th2n ordered the indict
ment submitted and a verdict of not
guilty was recorded. The case was
dropped because officers of the insti
tution which was robbed plaaded that
if they could not drop the case and
get their stolen bonds back the bank
would go to tbe wall.
Shourds gave back all that -he took
"nd $5000 in addition as a sop for
the injured feslings of the bank di
rectors. NO SALOON TRAGEDY;
MERELY VCYAG:
Reports current in this city, last
night that a captive baloon in Port
land had broken loose, and carried
aloft four people, and which created
considerable excitement when the
baloon was seen in the western sky
opposite Bolton, proved -to be incor
rect when later word was received
tfrom the metropolis that the air craft
was purposely freed,' was in charge of
an experienced pilot, and was on an
expected trip to Tacoma. When the
?as hag reached the . upper currents
in the air, It was carried' south off its
course. Late last night the baloon
was almost directly over Portland
again.

FOR VISITORS
Oregon City has bo many attrac
tions planned for its Rose Day next
Saturday that it Is hard to say which
will make the greatest appeal to the
public. Aside from the rose show in
Busch's hall, which will be opened to
the public immediately at the close
of the big parade, and during which
classical music will be rendered by
a specially selected orchestra, thers
will be motorboat races, a river par
ade, an evening session of the rose
display, and a rose day dance in the
Armory in the evening. Preparations
for all of the events have been com
pleted, and the day will - he one of
festivity and gaiety throughout.
Throughout Friday decorators were
busy in the business section of the
city, decking buildings and stores in
the red, white and blue that have
been selected as the colors for tbe
day. Hejre and there streamers .of
pink and green, the colors of the Rose
society, intermingled with the others,
adding to the attractiveness of the
scene, while overhead banners strung
from the cross wires of the trolley
system made a canopy of gorgeous
ness over all.
Parade First Event.
The big parade of the day, the first
feature on the program, will form on
Main street below Fourteenth, and
will get under way promptly at half
past one, so that there will be no ?n-
J terference with the other features.
Through the action of Mayor Jones,
who got into personal communication
with officials of the Portland, Rail
way, Light & Power . company, ar
rangements have been made to have
the 1:30 intetrurban train pull out
ahead .of time and wait at Greenpoint
for passengers, while the incoming
train will be flagged at the same sta
tion until the parade is under way, so
that the pageant shall not be inter
rupted. '
The first division of the parade;
which will include the Queen of the
Rose Show and her court, officials of
the Rose society, city and county dig
nitaries, lodges, and floats, will march
from Fourteenth to Third streets on
Main, and back to the point of start
ing. The second division, composed
entirely of motor-driven vehicles, will
follow the same line, but on the
countermarch will turn east at Tenth
street, and will go up Singer hill to
Seventh street, and out that thorough
fare to J. Q. Adams street, returning
to the foot of Seventh street tp dis
band. Mr. Lazelle will be at the pub
licity bureau of the Commercial club
up until half past twelve to receive
late entries to this part of the par
ade. .; "i
Flowers on View.
Immediately at the close of the par
ade visitors, and citizens are urged to
make their way to Busch's hall, to
view the blooms on display before
the commencement of the next feat
ure of the celebration. In the course
of the musical program, aside from
the orchestra, Mr. Harold Swafford
will give a whistling solo. Another
additional feature of the rose show,
apart from those already announced,
will be a "war dance1' by "Indians"
from Oak Grove. The savages will
be somewhat smaller in size than the
average red man in fact they are
all of them small boys of the neigh
boring city.

TO OREGON CITY
ade of the Portland Motorboat club
will pass in review of the Judges'
boat, anchored off the municipal dock,
near the Busch buildings. It is ex
pected that there will be a large num
ber of beautifully decorated vessels
in this feature, and that a striking
picture will be made. Half an hour
later the river will be cleared by po
lice boats and the motorboat races
will be the order. :.. ; ,, , . ' : .
Races to be Speedy
The first race will be for runabouts,
and the second will - be for power
boats in the 20-foot class. Both of
these contests will be three times
around the course, which will extend
from the Judges' boat down the river
to a bouy off the rapids, thence up to
another bouy near the entrance of
the locks, and back. All vessels will
be required to pass to the east of a
bouy anchored off Buch's hall, so
that the contest will be in plain view
of the entire city waterfront, which
will be the best place from which the
speed trials may be viewed. The
course, as outlined, will be about two
miles to the round.
The third race, the free-for-all, will
be the most spectacular of the day,
being between -the Vamoose and the
Oregon Wolf II, the fastest two mo
torboats on the Pacific coast Both
of these vessels have established new
marks for speed, and if water condi
tions are right, railroad time will be
made by- them as they skim over the
course. They will cover the course
four times. . ,
' All Plans Complete
Judges for the motorboat races will
be L. E. Jones, Livy Stipp and Dr. -L.
G.'Ice. Leonard Ml Myers, chairman
of the racing committee of the Port-
Hand Motorboat club, went over the
cqurse Friday afternoon, and gave it
his ' of fical approval. The cups for
the three races, one of which will be
awarded in eachevent, have been
donated to the Rose society by the
merchants, lawyers, and by the doc
tors and dentists of the city.
During the motorboat races the
suspension bridge will be closed to
traffic by order of the county court,
and Sheriff E. T. Mass will have dep
uties on hand to see that no crowd
gathers upon it This move has been
taken as a matter of public safety ,so
that no accident. may mar the day.
In the evening the offical rose show
dance will be given in the Armory,
complimentary to the Portland Motor
boat -club. It is held under the aus
pices . of the Maccabee orchestra,
wflich will furnish the music, and un
der the direction of the Oregon City
Rose society. Motorboat club mem
bers will attend in uniform, and the
public is cordialy invited... The dance '
will begin at half past eight In the
evenng, and will conclude the f estlvit- '"
ies of the day.
