TfiE MOENING OREGONIAN, 'SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, -I90&.
DECKED WITH FLORA
Beautiful Parade of Decorated
Vehicles.
PROCESSION THAT WON APPLAUSE
Snsrcaxxt Undertaken by the Wome&'s
Carnival Auxiliary a- Bis Sad- -,
ccssTJesplte ttfe'Weataer. '
Threatening clouds had no terrors for
participants in the floral parade yester
day afternoon, and the procession moved
southward from the corner of First and
Ash streets on time. Never did a more
tasty and unique exhibition enliven the
streets of Portland, and the throng of
epectators "who lined the sidewalks along
the whole route were delighted. A large
proportion of- the sightseers would move
westerly along the streets leading from
the river front in order to obtain a sec
ond and a third view as thei parade
passed by on Third and Fourth streets.
Each flower-bedecked vehicle bore evi
dence of Portland's wealth of roses,
morning glories, lilies, poppies, chrysan
themums, jreraniums, asters and other
beauties from the gardens of the sub
urbs, while the fields 'had been drawn
upon for their quota -of fern, wild baby
breath and barberry, all sparkling in the
verdant freshness peculiar to Oregon's
resinous woods. Hothouse flowers were
also abundant, in volume and variety,
and the taste with which they were used
in blending proved that master hands
had been busy all morning preparing to
vie for the prizes.
The platoon of tall, well-formed police
men who took the lead bore evidence that
Chief 3IcL.aucb.lan, too, had an eye for
the beautiful when he selected the best
looking men on his force to form a van
guard for the .parade, and these "were
followed by Miss Ethel Plimpton, as
grand marshal, assisted by General Sum
mers, with mounted aids General C V.
Gantenbein and Lieutenant Lu H. Knapp,
Dr. B. E. Miller being chief of the first
division. Miss Plimpton, as grand mar
shal, rode a spirited, jet-black horse, and
the martingales, bridle, and saddle were
completely covered with white everlast
ing flowers dipped in purple, and the
effect was perhaps the most striking
of any single mount in the parade.
A squad of American-born Chinese
boys looked quaint in their neat
Chinese boys looked quaint in their neat
uniforms, headed by Seld Back, Jr. Each
of the little fellows bore a small Amer
ican flag to show that he was In no sym
pathy with the Boxers, who would prob
ably behead the whole squad if they
had a chance.
Then came the floral bedecked auto
mobile of H. Wemme, followed by an
other belonging to K. S. Hopkins, of
Seattle. Both of these new-fangled ve
hicles attracted lots of attention, as
their propelling machinery was entirely
hidden by huge garlands of flowers, and
a great deal of speculation -was Indulged
in as to the kind of power used. The
VTemme carriage was propelled by steam,
generated by a gasoline blaze, and the
Seattle vehicle had an electric motor for
propulsion.
Tvo little Queens of the street narade
followed In a pony cart Ina Story and
Mabel O'Reilly. Chrysanthemums and
asters were conspicuous in the decora
tion of the cart, which was the property
of Mrs. Mary Story. The Queens were
gaily clad in Summer costume, but were
provided with umbrellas to use on emer
gency. Mrs. George "Wemple, in a double car
riage draped with a large American flag,
appeared with Mrs. Governor T. T. Geer.
of Salem, one of the judges of the pa1
rade, Mrs. A. Osburn, of Astoria, and
Mrs. E. TV. Rowe, of Portland, each of
"whom carried a bouquet of roses or car
nations. Miss Bessie Fitzgerald, the Queen of
the parade, rode in state upon an elegant
float drawn hy four horses. She was
seated upon a floral throne beneath a
silken canopy, and at the base of the
raised dais sat the following charming
little maids of honor, costumed in white:
Ritchie Fitzgerald. Mabel Childers, Bes
sie Kelly, Carrie Harris, Bessie Huf
ferd, Jlena Strong, Anna Hurd, Aimle
Solomon and Phonnle Blumenthal. Upon
the front of the float were ranged two
fine mounted elks of large proportions,
underneath whose branching antlers stood
Miss Cora Clark in the character of God
dess of Liberty.
Miss Carolyn C. Dllley, accompanied by
Mrs. A. Dllley, appeared In a double rig
neatly festooned with hop vines and
draped in the Carnival colors.
Mrs. J. A. Crossen's two-horse carriage
was decorated with ivy. with pleasing
effect, and bore streamers of purple and
white. She was accompanied by Mrs.
George Blakely and Mrs. A. S. McCal
llster. They carried large bouquets of
sweet peas.
The double carriage containing Mrs. M.
E. Roherts and Mrs. Henry "Westermlre
was profusely decorated with smilax,
carnations, chrysanthemums and large
butterflies of purple and white. Miss
Hazel Westermlre and Miss Ethel Rob
erts rode with them.
Mrs. William Frazler drove a double
rig covered with roses, chrysanthemums,
dahlias, anemones and Oregon grape. A
horn of plenty, composed of golden can
nas, surmounted a canopy of clematis.
Mrs. Byron E. Miller -drove a double
team of beautiful cream-colored horses,
with trappings In harmony with the
orange hues of the decorations upon the
body of the rig, the striking effect of
which was greatly appreciated Seated
with her were Mrs. Judge Yates, of Port
Gamble, Wash., and Mrs. Cutnbert and
Mrs. Shreve, of Portland, all wearing cos
tumes of white.
A dog team drawing a little wagon, on
which a floral umbrella was mounted,
showed what two little hoys could do In
the matter of portable decorations. The
amateur decorators were Chester Roberts
and Alfred Miller, and, although the
canines were of different species, and
hitched up abreast, the outfit was smiling
ly dubbed "all right" by the spectators.
Miss Cora Beldlng's buggy was deco
rated with hop vines, and the taste dis
played in the use of these simple leaves
and burs was generally commented upon.
.JMiss Sadie Rabjor drove a pretty ve
hicle, decorated with asters and chrysan
themums, none but natural flowers being
used, and the effect was very pleasing.
C. F. Sitter's buggy was embclished
with the colors, purple and white, in
honor or the city's guests, the Elks.
G. F. Pfunder's tastily-attired trap was
conspicuous in its covering of hot-house
flowers and was considered quite a fea
ture of the parade.
The bright red decorations of the car
riage containing Mrs. Phil Harris, Mrs.
William Upson, Miss Tllllc Cornelius and
Mrs. NIemyer. attracted much attention
by its beauty. It -was drawn by two white
horses, surmounted by two white doves,
and was lavishly decorated with popples
and designs In green. Its occupants were
gowned in red and strewed flowers along
the route.
Juanlta Circle, 2o 275, Women of Wooa
craft, exhibited a float in charge of Mrs.
J. C. Sampson, and was drawn by two
horses. Miss Clement Baron, dressed in
appropriate costume, and sitting In a
large floral circle, appeared as the Indian
maiden after -nhom the lodge takes It3
name. One side of the circle was Com
posed of red, white and green, the colors
of the order, while on the other was the
fRmlllar purple and white. Flowers were
tastefully arranged about the float.
The display made by Ivcna Lodge. No.

so arranged as to present in a pleas'ng
manner the colors of the order, the color
scheme of each belnjj distinctive and com

of pure white, sat Mrs. Sadie McKlbben
and Mrs. Clara Farmer, robed in -white;
in the second were Mrs. Robert'Lutke and
Miss Beryl Harris, arrayed in blue, in
harmony with the conveyance: the third
was of yellow, and contained Mrs. C. H.
Fox and Mrs. O. K Downing, in gowns of
the same color; the last was of red, and
Iras, occupied by Mrs. M. Laudenklos and

son, of Portland; Lady Commander Mrs.
Fratle Bean, of Albany; Lieutonant-Com-mander
Mrs. Nellie "Vernon, Mrs. Clara
Fitch, and Mrs. Emma Hopkins,, of Port
land, rode in an open carriage, which was
profusely decorated with the colors of

Carnival colors. The gray team drawing
the carriage, draped in heavy red, white
and black nets, was driven by Charles
Oatman, weailug tnTTTosTurae of a Knight
of the Maccabees. The letters, "K. O. T.
JL." were worked in flowers, while all
about the vehicle were roses, dahlias,
asters and other flowers.
A large crowd ot spectators was packed
for hundreds of feet about the reviewing
stand at the intersection of Fourth and
Main streets, and forgot all about the
discomforts of the drizzling rain in their
eagerness to catch a glimpse of the Queen
of the Carnival, Miss Alice Thayer, when

IN THE SEVERAL COURTS.
Larry Sullivan Appeals From Munic
ipal Court Decision.
A transcript of appeal from the Mu
nicipal Court was filed in the criminal
department of the State Circuit Court
yesterday in the case of Lawrence Sulli
van, of the firm of Sullivan, Grant Bros.
& McCarron. Sullivan . was adjudged
guilty and fined $50 by Judge Cameron
for collecting $475 from the captain of the
ship Nlthsdale for supplying the master
with eight seamen. The bond on appeal
for the appearance of the defendant for
trial in the upper court is in the sum of
$100, and 1b signed by Sullivan and
Frank Botefuhr as surety. The appeal
papers were filed by the defendant's at'
torney, Henry E. McGinn.
Recovered Her Child.
In response to an order made by Judge
Frazer on the application of James Glea
son,. as attorney for Annie Patrick, the
Sheriff yesterday removed from the pos
session of Henry Patrick, the father, a
minor child, Leon Patrick, for the pur
pose of delivering the child to the mother.
The Patricks, who married In Liverpool,
England, in the year J.BS2, were divorced
by Judge Cleland March 30, 1S99, Mrs.
Patrick being the plaintiff in the suit.
Cruel treatment was the ground on
which the decree dissolving the matri
monial bonds was granted, and the court
awarded the mother the legal custody of
the child. The father, it appears, re
cently took Leon away from his toother,
and she sought the assistance of Mr.
Gleason in tho matter. The attorney ob
tained a certified copy of the divorce
decree, which he presented to Judge
Frazer, with the result that the order
was Issued commanding the Sheriff to
take Leon and restore him to his mother,
which was done.

Undaunted by prospects of rain, as they
are undaunted, by any difficulty of life,
traveling men are shaping themselves,
for a life's effort today. .They must beat
the field In the .parade business, or feel
that they have been defeated. No second
place will do traveling men. It the peo-
pie do not pronounce their parade todaj
the 'peer of all others, it is one on the
Knights of the Grip.
The line of march published above will
not be changed, and it is the purpose of
the- management to start and go. through
on schedule time. This line . of mv. h
is the best planned yet for a pariiue,
as the heart of the city is traversed
backward and forward in such manner
as to accommodate the largest number
of spectators, without causing any to
go far. i
Since previous announcements lor the
traveling men's .parade were made a
grand marshal and aids have been se
lected. For the former J. L. Lowell has
been decided upon and his aids are Joe
Gramont, John Curran, Al Smith and
George Ellott, Additions made to tho
procession are Jim Elder in a four-horse
carriage, Sanford HIrsch In a similar ve
hicle, Cherles New and James Fried
lander in a tandem, W. B. Clark, C.
G. Ulckock and Joe Brooks In a carriage,
Meyer Abraham has been assigned to the
Eighteenth-century float, Morris Winters
has been added to the up-to-date traveling
men, a camel with travelers on hlB back,
automobile with Julius Friendly and Har
ry Coleman in shirtwaists, beautifully
decorated automobile with H. Wemme,
and in the Pullman car will appear the
following well Tmown railroad men, among
others: W. E. Coman, W. H. Mansfield,
W. H. Hurlburt, C. H. Markham, A. D.
Charlton, R. B. Miller, S. G. Fulton. J.
H. Lothrop, A. G. Barker, C. J. Eddy,
A. C. Sheldon.
It has been the earnest desire of the
committee having the parade in charge
to secure the presence of every traveling
man in the Northwest, whether he be
commercial "man. railroad passenger
agent, Insurance man. or city salesman.
There are' an immense number of them
In the city, at present. Large firms have
planned ahead to have, their traveling
men here today. Country patrons in
large numbers are In the city and an old
fashioned reception Is' In order. This Is
the day when the merchant and public
generally look for an entertainment at

'
the hands of the traveling man. The com
jnittee summed up the situation last
revenlng as follows:
"The eyes of all will be on the 'boys'
today, In their parade and elsewhere.
Every traveling man or city salesman,
regardless of the lino of business, Is' re
quested to form in the column. We in
tend to make this the banner day of the
Fair and Carnival, Each man in the pa
rade should wear the hat and rosette pro
vided as the distinctive mark. They are
to be had at 131 Sixth street, and all are
urged to procure them. In fact this Is a
case t where the general success demands
that every man constitute himself a
committee of one to see that everything
that should be done Is attended to."
The Tabernacle, at Twelfth 'and Morri
son streets, has been arranged as head
quarters. The reception committee will
keep" open hous there to all traveling
vo J) y Ja '
men arid their friends from 9 A. M. on.
Especially are visitors invited, and local
traveling men will be expected to -direct
visitors to this place.4" The building will
also be -used for storlng'such apparel or
articles as those taking part in the pa
rade desire to leave. -Traveling men are
directed to assemble by 12:30 o'clock
sharp, a half hour before the j5arade
commences. From the Tabernacle they
will march to Fourth and Madison, the
commencement point.
All the wholesale houses In Portland
close at noon today, that their men may
have full opportunity to participate , in
the parade, and -for such as, are not
eligible to view,, it..
Tho motive of 'the ' traveling men in
getting up this parade ' Is to show the
thousands of visitors who are now in
Portland something, ot the extent of the
jobbing business done1 here. As every
one knows, the traveling man is 'the
backbone of wholesale business, and
whether the weather be fair or otherwise,
lair or oinetwiae,
the parade. will be an object lesson not

SMELTER AT BURKMONT;
Bis Enterprie Under Way at One of
Baker City's Snburbs.
A" large smelting; plant and a branch
railroad leading to "it are to be two of
Baker County's acquisitions next Spring,
according to L. Balllet, of San Francisco,
who was Interviewed 'at the Portland.
Mr. Balllet is owner .of the White
Swan and Gold Ridge mines, two
valuaable properties in Baker Coun
ty, and he has been quietly working
up the smelter proposition for two years,
he said, though the public at large knew
very little of his plans. "Now that i
have everything well under way and the
enterprise assured, t don't care who
knows it," he added. '
The site of the proposed smelter Is
Burkmont, a point 18 miles northeast of
Baker City, whose citizens have encour
aged the enterprise by grants of land
and water, and agreeing to furnish the
necessary lime and Iron for fluxing. Tho
coke will be brought from Wyoming, but
Mr. Balllet thinks good coal can bo
found in the vicinity of Burkmont.
Judge Burke, of Denver, and a number
of Iowa capitalists are behind the smel
ter enterprise, which al30 includes the
development of some very promising
copper propositions near Burkmont.
Great ledges of copper ore, 1000 feet in
thickness, Mr. Balllet said, exist hear
Burkmont, and the ore runs from 6 to
80 per cent, pure metal. The smelter
will turn this into copper matte, which
can be shipped East for the present, but
a refining plant will slowly be added, so
that the copper can be shipped in its
pure state. '
Tho capacity of the smelter will be 250
tons a day, and the plant Is to cost close
to $1,200,000. Both smelter and road, ho
said, would be begun simultaneously, and
by .tho time the railroad Is finished the
smelter will be ready for operation.
The new line front Baker to Burkmont
will be extended on to the Seven Devils
country, a distance of 84 miles from
Baker, and the ore froip these latter
mines can also be smelted at Burkmont.
The company about to build the road is
known as the Montana, Oregon & Pa
cific, of San Francisco, and surveys have
been quickly made, showing an easy
grade from Baker City, 1 per cent,
being Its very steepest 'Incline. As the
road will be of . standard gauge, no
trouble over transshipment will bo en
countered at Baker City.
"Although Burkmont will bj&rmade an
important point by. the, construction of
these improvements, Baker City is
bound to get the benefit of them," Mr.
Balllet said. "Baker is on the main
line -of the Q. R. & N., and will be Jike
Colorado Springs is to Cripple Creek a
great distributing point for vast mines,
and the- natural headquarters for the re
gion. It will build up Baker City fully as
rapidly as though the big smelter had
been erected In its suburbs. The en
thuslasm of the people' of Baker City
over the proposition Is justified, and I
notice they say their fondest hopes are
soon to be realized
"Burkmont, however, will be the scene
of busiest activity. In less than GO days
21 new shafts will be sunk on its copper
fields, and add to this the numerous
coal mines already In operation within
rifle shot, and one can realize In part
the gigantic strides that" portion of Ba
ker County will take within the next few
months. The railroad will be built to
Burkmont by March, and tho contract
wlh the Colorado Metallurgical Works
calls for the finishing of the smelter
plant by that time."
Mr. Balllet thinks that large smelters
will be very numerous in Oregon within
the next 10 years, as the abundance of
low-grade ore In all directions justifies
their construction. He said the Tacoma
smelter, which has recently passed Into
the hands of the Treadwell people, woulo.
be kept busy on the ores and concen
trates of that company. - There Is, there
fore, no danger of overdoing the smelter
business. for many years to come, If ever.

Though the rain and sleet are falling
And the roads are awful muddy;
Though all men hard times are bawling,
Though a fellow's nose gets ruddy,
Though the rivers may be frozen
And the frost may bite and nip,
You can never stop the advent
Of the drummer and his grip.
Though the trains may all be smashing,"
Though the horses all go lame,
The drummer, like the bedbug,
Will get there just the same.
And whea his time is over, "
Will come sailing from his trip,
For he always makes connection,
Does the drummer and his grip.
Ah! he teaches us a lesson, " r
With his energy and grit;
Things that paralyze most people
Don't astonish him a bit.
And he's ever bright and cheerful, '
And a smile is on his lip
He's a daisy from away back,
Is the drummer with his grip.
Give him a kind word always
He-'ll.give you back the same
And if trains run at ungodly hours,
Please don't give him the blame;
For down, clear down to Hades,
Discourteous officials slip,
While along the road to Heaven
Goes the drummer with his grip. .

and many spent a few pleasant 'minutes
there under shelter of the canopy.
But the most popular places were tho
covered buildings, and many were the ex
clamations 'of regret that the whole Fair
had , not been covered over with canvas,
so that the fun could not be disturbed
by wet, dismal rain. One result of the
rainy day was a closer inspection of the
Women's Building, the Manufacturers'
Building and the Grain Palace.
Few of the visitors realized until their
attention had been called by the big red
sign in the Manufacturers' Building,
"Made in Oregon; Patronize Home In
dustry," that all of the 200 articles of
manufactured ware were the products of
Oregon labor, and the completeness with
which the industrial field Is covered by
Oregon factories received much commen,t.
The Manufacturers' Building, Itself, 13
one of the best and most carefully ar
ranged' In the Fair, and no visitor can
peep In a nook or cranny without being
surprised at seeing some article of com
mon use carrying the symbol which man
ifests Its home origin. The purpose of
the building and all the exhibits Is being
admirably fulfilled in presenting to the
public eye a visible demonstration of how
Oregon Industries might be fostered by
more home patronage.
All of the booths braved the weather In
good fashion with their water-tight cov
erings, and the rain injured none of the
displays. The Midway kept going in full
A
blast under the covered tents, and tho
good-natured umbrella-armed groups of
people streamed through the gates, de
termined to see the whole show, while on
an evening's lark, and -they did so with
little discomfort.
BAND CONCERTS.
Tacoma Military Band to Appear in
Two Performance Today.
While In attendance at the Carnival, the
Tacoma Military Band has been enthusi
astically received upon every appearance,
and lovers of music will be glad of an
opportunity to hear them in two more

CHATTANOOGA WOMAN
Has Reason to Take Coffee Out of
Her Family.
"After drinking coffee some years, I
became badly run down in health, had
serious Indigestion, flatulency, and ner
vousness, with severe spells of sick head
ache. "My physician advised me long ago
to stop drinking coffee, but I said It
would be an Impossibility, that I would
rather do without my breakfast and have
my cup of coffee.
"About six months ago I tried Postum
Food Coffee and made it strictly accord
ing to directions. I was so delighted
with It that I Immediately discontinued
coffee and began using Postum. I have
not had a pound of coffee in my house
since and never. expect to again. All
symptoms of Indigestion have disappeared
entirely and my nerves are growing
stronger every day. My weight has in
creased about 20 pounds andI now weigh
more than I ever weighed In my life.
"I have known people to try Po3tum
and throw It aside, for the reason that
they made It carelessly. It has a deli
clous flavor and Is dark and rich as
Mocha or Java, If properly boiled, but If
not boiled long enough, it is tasteless.
Put a piece of butter In the pot, the size
of a navy bean to prevent boiling over.
"My husband's weight has increased
30 pounds since he began drinking it,
and my little !boy, who has been very
delicate and did not eat as children
usually do, used to drink coffee at break
fast. After I gave him Postum for a few
days, his appetite Improved and he Is
gaining In flesh dally. Tou can Imagine
we are strong friends of Postum Food
Coffee."
