Thursday, May 23, 10:30 A M Departure of
the President for Puget Sound, escorted to the
train by the members of the Spanish "War Vet
erans. The programme of the reception that
the citizens of Portland -trill tender to the
Chief Executive of the Nation on his
visit to this city Wednesday, May 22, on
which committees have been working for
months in order to show fitting' courtesy
to the city's distinguished guest, is now
definitely outlined. The foregoing gives
the programme of the reception from the
time the Presidential train rolls into the
Union station in the afternoon, with the
accompaniment of rousing cheers from
the assembled thousands, until the next
morning when the President's departure
will pUt an end to the holiday festivities
that clustered around his visit. In no city
on the Pacific Coast are more careful
preparations being made for the reception
of the President than in Portland. The
executive committee held another of Its
frequent meetings last night and care
fully considered the reception in all as
pects. Reports of committees showed that
all the arrangements are being made to
run the reception off smoothly, to give
the President all the consideration that
1? due from patriotic Americans, and also
to give every resident of the city and
state. Including all the school children of
the city, whether in the public, private
or sectarian schools, an opportunity to
see the distinguished guests and also to
meet them -at the public reception in the
evening.
One of the Important and historic cere
monies. In which the President will in all
probability be asked to participate, the
breaking t)f ground for the 1903 Lewis and
Clark Centennial and American Pacific
Exposition, was discussed at the meeting
of the general committtee last night. It
was finally moved as the sense of the
meeting that the 1903 exposition commit
tee be informed that the general commit
tee would place that ceremony on the
programme. If the exposition committee
would Inform them of their desires In
the matter and suggest the place and
other features of the event.
As a reception committee to meet the
Presidential party at the Union station It
was decided that this should consist of
the general executive committee on re
ception, the members of the Common
Council, prominent citizens to be invited
by the Mayor, and that the whole com
mittee thus formed should be under the
chairmanship and direction of the Mayor
of the tity, H. S. Rowe. At the station, ,
decorations will be made to such an ex
tent that from the very moment that he
alights from the train the President will
be assured that he is welcome in the
city by the whole body of citizens. From
the station the Presidential party will be
taken in carriages and the escorting pa
rade formed, consisting of the Grand
Army of the Republic as the body guard
of honor, the Third Regiment, batteries
and Naval Reserve, Oregon National
Guard and other societies and mili
tary organizations of the state. The Ore
gon City and neighboring troops will be
brought to Portland to take part in the
celebration of the day.
After the parade forms it will move
through the principal streets of the city
and pass at the Park blocks one of the
prettiest features of the whole celebra
tion, 12,000 school children gathered on
grand stands erected for the purpose on
both sides of East and West Park streets.
Chairman Breeden reportea for the com
mittee having this feature in charge that
he had made all the necessary arrange
ments with City Superintendent Rigler
for between 9000 and 10,000 children from
the public schools, and for at least 1000
from the Catholic parochial echoools, and
for an uncertain number from the various
private schoools. In addition to this he
reported the arrangement with Professor
Krohn, of the city public schools, to fur.
nlsh for the parade a human flag, the
staff to be made of boys in khaki suits,
and the stripes and field of the flag by
girls in red, white and blue.
After the parade ends at the postofflce,
where It Is the intention to place the re
viewing stand, the visitors will be taken
on a drive, and at this time it is pro
posed to get in the Initial ceremonies of
the 1905 Exposition. The Presidential
party will then be entertained by the view
of the principal points of the city, after
which the guests will be at leisure.
Chairman Cake, of the committee in
cnarge oi tne notei arrangements, re
ported that It had completed all the de
tails of the dinner to be given to the
President and the members of his party
at the Portland Hotel. This will be most
elaborate and all the appointments per
fect, and the committee has been assured
by Manager Bowers that it will be the
most epicurean served feast served to the
President during his entire trip. The party
will dine in the south parlors of the ho
tel. In the evening the public reception will
be held under the porte cochere in the
court of the hotel, the President and re
ception committee standing on a raised
platform.
It was decided to request the Spanish
War Veterans to furnish the escort to the
President on the way to the train the
next morning.
Judge M. C. George and A, J. Capron
appeared as a committee from the Ohio
Society to request the co-operation of the
general committee in arranging for the
reception of the Ohio Congressional dele
gation which will follow the Presidential
party in a trip over the Pacific Coast.
Since the members of the-Ohio delegation
are among the most influential in Con
gress, the importance of entertaining them
on their visit to Portland was recognized
by all present. It was decided to recom
mend the appointment of a general re
ception committee by the Mayor to have
charge of the details of the reception

Manager Hans Job.ii "Working: in
Hotel Kitchen, to Get a Nevr
Start In. Life.
The glamor of managing a theatrical
troupe and incidentally posing as the
man who is expected to pay the actors'
salaries, has no inducement for a good
looking young German named Hans John,
late manager and treasurer a)f the "Widow
Bedott Company. Hans le polishing
dishes for his board in the kitchen of the
Hotel Rhelnpfalz, 253 Front street, and
wishing he had the $600 he recently ad
vanced a3 half-owner of the Widow Be
dott Company. The play was given at
the Metropolitan Theater on the week
commencing April 21, but the company
has disbanded and is scattered goodness
knows where.
It was HanB' first theatrical venture,
and he says it will be the last. For the
past two years Hans has been a traveler
in German Southwest Africa, India,
China aatf Janan. Last March he landed
in SariSJFrancisco with about $600, part
of the 'proceeds of his father's estate,
and made the acquaintance of Horace
Swing, then the leading man and pro
prietor of the Widow Bedott show.
Ewing proved to be an agreeable com
panion, and confided to nis new friend
Hans that the show was a good thing,
and that the only article necessary to
make it successful was money. Hans
murmured about his $600. He was nearly
embraced by all the"- members of the
company, to whom he was Introduced one
after another, and he finally said he
guessed he would like to be treasurer and
part owner of the play. A lawyer was
called and a bill of sale was formally
drawn up, in which it was agreed that
for the consideration of $600 Hans should
receive a half Interest in the play, ana
half profits (and half losses) for the re
mainder of the season. .Hans and Ewlng
signed this document on March 18.
iiappy Jians. javeryooay in tne com
panynine men and three women, beamed
on him as the angel. He was treasurer,
and when pay day came the ghost
walked. Bills were paid promptly, and
the actors began to assume a well-fed
appearance. The show was a fair suc
cess in San Francisco up to the time
Hans took charge. Somehow a blight
seemed to fall on the show after that.
The company played at Astoria, Hllls
boro, McMinnvllle, Independence, Oregon
City and Portland. The Metropolitan
Theater here was not crowded to the
doors, and folks who attended were
critical.
But the show people were game, and
they looked to Hans as their Moses and
financial man, although the money-box
was nearly empty. Vancouver was
played with indifferent success, and
when th'e company opened at The Dalles
and met with a chilling respqnse, the
leading man said: 'Boys, it's up to us.
We're broke."
Telegrams and pathetic letters for
funds were despatched to relatives, and
several of the company left for Chicago
when money came. Several of the strand
ed ones remained at The Dalles, because
they could not go any farther. Hans had
Just enough money to pay his fare to
Portland, where he expected to get a
position. He avoided the Hotel Imperial,
where his trunks are held In lieu of an
unpaid bill, and began a still hunt for a
job. which resulted in his accepting th2
one he now holds at the Hotel Rheln
pfalz. Hans told his tale of woe to an Orc
gonlan man yesterday, and in concluding
he said: "Der blay has vot you Amerl
gans call von hoodoo. Der Widow Be
dott! I remember me reading Dickei:6
ven he saitx 'Samlvel, bevare ov vldders!'

Eleyen Men. pnd One Woman Caught
in a Chinese Joint.
Eleven white" men, one white girl and
one Chinaman were arrested by Police
men Mott and Carpenter in a raid which
took place in an opium den yesterday
mornljig on the south side of Pine street,
near Second.
The fChirtaman gave his name as Ah
Fook. , The girl, who is only 17 years old,
is Mrs. Rose Smith, who became sepa
rated .from her husband shortly after
they were married. Two years ago she
was ,Miss Vesta Springer, one of the
prettiest girls in Lents, and even now she
retains traces of unusual beauty. The
white men arrested in the raid gave
these1 names: George Thompson, W.
Hastings HaTry Williams, O. Smith, F.
H. Anderson, J. F. Campbell, O. M. Pat
terson, I A. Dewey, J. PIgotr, B. C.
Dlce'and1' Claude Scrivner. Several of
these are assumed names. The charge
named in the warrant was frequenting an
opiumt den for the purpose of smoking
opium..
Complaints had reached the police that
white men and women, and sometimes
colored persons, were frequenting Chinese
opium dens along lower Pine street, and
Policemen iHott and Carpenter spotted
Ah Fook's' place. The opium smokers
were, taken entirely by surprise as the
police rushed in, a:ndwere lolling on the
bunks, minus 'coats and hats. A rush
was made.for the windows, but this move
was cbecked. Mrs. 4Smlth was nearly
overcome by the effects of the opium and
she was aroused with difficulty. To get
downstairs it 'was necessary to use a lad
der, and Policeman Mott went first, but
when noses were counted in the room be
low, five prisoners were missing. It was
discovered, in the confusion, that these
five men had jumped off the ladder and
secreted themselves Jn a room about 10
I. feet long and efght feet wide. They were
pacKea togetner iiue nernng in a barm,
but were disentangled and placed In cells
at the police station. The police seized
two opium outfits, with needles, lamps,
plpest and opium.
The prisoners were subsequently
brought before Municipal Judge Cameron
and the men appeared to be a well
dressed lot. They jvere about 20 years
old. each, and they all pleaded not guilty
and were each held In $100 ball for' a
hearing today. Mrs". Smith was attrac
tively 'dressed in a black lace gown, a red
waist and an immense black hat with
feathers.. She said "guilty," in a low
voice, and did not appear to be embar
rassed by her position. She was remand
ed for sentence.

CONVEYANCES 58 YEARS AGO
Only a. JFew Rude Cara at Cham
poes Sleeting: in May, J.843.
On May 2, 1843, there were no wheeled
vehicles of any kind In the Willamette
Valley, except a few rude and clumsy
French carts, many of which were not
ironed in any way. These were used
about the farms and for hauling wheat to
the Hudson's Bay Company warehouses,
although much of that staple was packed
'on ponies to market. This method was
the one employed by most of the Amer
ican settlers. The custom, in traveling.
was to go on horseback with a pair of J
oianKets fastened behind tne saddle, so
that' the ridef might be sure of a bed
whenever night overtook him. Food of
some kind was always obtainable, but
bedding was scarce. The dress of the
early settlers and mountain men was
unique and striking. Slouch hats and deer
or bear skin caps were common, and oc
casionally a cap made of beaver would
Tie found. Occasionally a pole cat pelt or
that of a fox would be made into a cap.
This Jact gave rise to two nicknames
"Striped" Smith and "Fox" Jones. "With
buckskin suits "and long fringe on legs,
arms, &nd the bottom of the coat, with
leggings' and a pair of buge clanking
spurs, with rowels three and sometimes
four inches m diameter, and moccasins or
coarse brogans on the feet, the make-up
of the average mountain man of 1843, if
it could have been reproduced on May
2, 1901. would have shown a great contrast.

CLARY'S "T
INCORPORATIONS.
"Without public announcement a well
attended and enthusiastic meeting of the
'Tenth "Ward Sub-Board of Trade was
held in Manley's Hall, Williams avenue.
Monday evening. C. "W. Miller presided.
The main business was a full discission
of the site Of the Lewis and Clark Cen
tennial Exposition. It was the concen
sus of 'opinion 'that the University Park
grounds are the best located for the pur
pose. The following preamble and reso
lutions were unanimously adopted:
Whereas, The site tendered by the Eleventh
Ward Sub-Board of Trade is the most accessi
ble to all lines ot transportation to be found
convenient to Portland: and.
Whereas. The view of, our harbor In passing
to and from the centennial exposition. If lo- j and Washington commissioners. The
cated on said site, will convey to the minds of Sub-Board of Trade will meet hereafter
our visitors the Impression that Portland Is a ( every Tuesday evening in the Manley
great seaport city, vraicu uj wjc iujscji. Duiiaingi
ocean-going crafts; and.
Whereas, "Old Fort "Vancouver" is one of
the most noted historic places of the Pacific
Northwest, and can be distinctly -seen from
University Park, and would be an excellent
attraction for visitors on account of the con
venience to the proposed site; and.
Whereas, We believe that the exposition can
be made a greater success at University Park
than If held elsewhere; and.
Whereas, Those who would visit the exposi
tion If held above the city would be, on ac
count of the shallow, narrow, rocky channel,
