Story op a Portland Ajax. AJax de
fied the lightning, and his name has gone
thundering and "lightning" down the
ages, though It -was only heat lightning
he defied, and there were no results from
his defy. Employes of electric companies
engaged In putting In electric light and
telephone wires buck up against the real
manufactured high-pressure electricity
every day, and get shocks which would
have scared Ajar out of his boots if he
had owned any, and make no fuss about
it, A number of people were much amused
at the experience of a fellow who was
stringing a wire across a street in the
South End yesterday. It had to go above
the car company's trolley wire, and in
spite of all he could do, occasionally
touched It. He took half a dozen jolts
from the wire good naturedly, but finally
was knocked over, and the wire dropped
and struck a car track, and the report
"was "shocking" and a hole was burned
In the rail. The boy picked himself up,
but he had lost his temper In the fracas,
and he aided the electrical current in mak
ing things sulphurous till he could get his
wire to rights again. After a few years
at such tvork one might be able to defy
a whole power station and get away aliije
It "Was Pleasant Everywhere.
large number of persons went away fj
xne cuy xo spend tne Fourth; some tfa
rlous parts of the country, and some to
the coast. All who have returned are
bragging about what delightful weather
they enjoyed where they were, and not
appearing to realize that the day here
was so perfectly perfect that no pleasanter
one could bo possible anywhere. Some
spent the day and-night on the Washing
ton side of the Columbia, where they
could see all the skyrockets explode, and
could say "a-a-a-h!" just as well as if In
town, and where they could hear Just as
much of the noise as they cared to. Those
who went to the coast say that the trip
was a regular Fourth of July procession
all the way, as every town and hamlet
along the railroad was celebrating, and
decorations and noise were everywhere,
and the train was crowded with pretty
girls In their Summer gowns, going from
jone town to another to spend the day.
More and more city people go out of town
every Fourth to get away from the noise,
and more and more the country people
come Into town to enjoy the noise and
help to Increase it.
Noticed Oregon Fruit. Oregon's ex
hibit at the Buffalo Exposition continues
to attract the attention of the Eastern
press. The following Is from correspond
ence to Fruit Trade Journal and Produce
Record, of New Tork: "Far-away Oregon
Is not to be outdone In having strawber
ries on exhibition, and a card with the,
following description is noticed: 'All the
way from Oregon; E500 miles without ice.'
So, even should our local berry crop be
a failure in the future, our millionaires
will have Oregon berries to fall back on.
It Is not to be wondered at that many vis
itors cannot overcome the desire to pur
loin a sample of the beautiful apples
shown by Oregon, and the management of
the booth has placed this placard upon
it: 'Yield not to temptation.' The Ore
gon Commissioners should have been on
Tiand In the Garden of Eden and handed
this placard to Adam."
"Will Be Painted Black. The steeple
of the Taylor-Street M. E. Church is be.
ing painted a jet black, the same as the
roof, -while the figure at its top is to be
done in pure white. The -walls of the edi.
fice are to be of terracotta. Guy Prlc
has taken the job of painting the steeple,
the men who first rigged up the swinging
staging having declined to go on with
the "work The figure on the' top -was
given one coat yesterday, and the man
at work looked about the size of a spider
Irom points a few blocks away. The
Oregon fir, of -which the figure is made,
has stood the storms and sunshine of 34
years and Is in as good condition as
when first placed on Its elevated posi

Ijght Ito Darkness. F. N. Selberg,
superintendent of the Nome Electric Light
& Power Company, Is in the city, pur
chasing a plant for the company capable
of furnishing 300 arc lamps. Mr. Selberg
spent last Winter In Nome andtsaw how
long the nights get there, and is in a hurry
to get back to that "benighted" region in
time to have the plant in operation when
the sun goes down for the Winter. The
company has poles up and wires are being
strung, and when the dynamos are got
running the Arctic night will not know
where It Is at. Nome ought to be a good
place for the electric light business In
the Winter, as the sun is out of sight
for several months.

ise of a hot game of baseball tomorrow

One Run op Salmon. Cannerymen
along the Columbia are feeling more
hopeful about making a respectable pack
this season. A run of salmon has en
tered the river and the fishermen near
est the mouth have been making much
bettor catches for the past day or two
than at any time before this season.
Everyone Is waiting anxiously the school
to reach his fishing grounds and praying
that it may be the advance guard of a
big run such as often arrived in July
or even In August in years past. The sal
mon need not be afraid but what they
will be taken good care of, for every
necessary preparation has been made for
their reception,' and if they should all be
caught not one of them would be wasted.
The season so far has been very try
ing on the nerves of cannerymen and
fishermen, who have been existing prln.
cipally on hope, which is not a very nu
tritious diet

P. M.; -Gearhart Park, 6:40 P. M., and
Seaside, 6:50 P. M., making direct connec
tlon at Astoria with the steamer T. J.
Potter for all North Beach points. Be
ginning same date the morning train,
leaving Portland dally at 8 A. M., will

M., will enable passengers to make con
nection the following morning with train
leaving Astoria at 8:15 A. M. for Clatsop
Beach points, and with steamer Nahcotta,
leaving Astoria early In the morning
dally for North Beach Points.
Unusual Demand for Fruit. There
was a lively demand for the fruits and
vegetables which came on the San Fran
cisco steamer arriving yesterday morn
ing. Commission men say they would
like to have a Fourth of July every two
weeks, as It would enable them to clear
out consignments completely and create a
demand for more stuff. There Is but lit
tle in the way of vegetables now coming
from California, except green corn, peas
and beans, artichokes, etc, as the local
truck-raisers have plenty of most other
kinds. There are, however, a number of
varieties of fruit, prunes, peaches, pears,
apples, plums, grapes, etc., still arriving,
but It will not be long before the market
will be supplied with Oregon fruits, and
there will be more pleasure in eating
fruit.
Filling Up the Twenty-eighth. The
United States recruiting office in this city
has so far this month enlisted eight men
for the Twenty-eighth Infantry, now be
ing filled up at Vancouver Barracks. This
Is more than have been enlisted In the
same length of time for some months.
Several of the men -were discharged sol
diers Just returned from Manila, who are
probably anxious to get back. The Twenty-eighth
Regiment is pretty well flilea
up now, there being about 1000 men at
the barracks at Vancouver. It takes
about 1300 men to make a full regiment
The recruiting officer Is now anxious to
secure a number of men for the artillery
branch of the service.
Absence op Flags. Several persons
have called attention to the fact that
from many of the public school buildings
no flags were displayed Thursday, and
want to know the reason for this neglect.
The fact that the schools are closed and
a number of janitors have been "laid off"
during vacation Is probably the reason for
some of the flags not being displayed.
One of the Directors remarked that all the
schools were provided with flags, as the
G. A. R. kept after the board and saw
that flags were furnished to each of the
buildings. "It is rather expensive, too,"
he added, "as the flags are soon whipped
out when displayed often."
Removing REEP.-The work or removing
the 'Sylvia de Grasse re"ef from the river
channel near Astoria is now progressing
favorably. Hale &, Kern,, who soma time
ago took the job In hand, have now three
dredges and a drill scow employed In the
w,ork, rind at last good progress is being
made. The reef has "been a nuisance and
something of a menace to navigation since
the time when Mount Hood was a hole in
the ground, and pilots and captains, al
though the 'bones of the old Sylvia de
Grasse have been a warning which has
made them steer clear pf it, will draw a
breath of relief when It has been removed.
German Methodist Camp Meeting-
The German Methodists' camp meeting at
Oak Grove, a mile and a quarter south
of Mllwaukle, is now in progress, and will
continue until next Tuesday night. At
the opening exercises In the evening of
the Pourth patriotic addresses were made
by Adam Klippel, of Portland, and Hans
Hansen, of Cornelius. The first day nine
churches of the Portland district were
represented, and other churches sent in
representatives yesterday. Professor J. C.
Martlng, an eminent educator of the Berea,
O., German College, will preach dally dur
ing the continuance of the meeting.
Incorporations. I. G. Rosenberg,
George Kerr and T. R. Campbell yester
day filed articles of incorporation of the
Coast Fork Lumber Company in the Coun
ty Clerk's office; capital stock, 15400. Ar
ticles of incorporation of the Northwest

objects are to deal in real and personal
property and do a general contracting
business. The incorporators are Alexan
der Sweek, J. M. Long and Norrls A.
Brlsco; capital stock, $20,000.
Hop Outlook Good.A hopdealer who
has been up the Valley looking over the
situation says the hopfields are looking
fine and the vines are coming out very
well. There are very few lice to be
seen and he thinks that If bright, warm
weather lasts a week or two there will
not be many. Prospects are very favor
able for a good crop of hops.

FOR PARK IMPROVEMENT
DR. T. I. ELIOT-MAKES A REPORT
OF OBSERVATIONS.
Local Application Made of Points
Gathered In tbe EnsJ Keeper
for Holladay - Parle
At the monthly meeting of the Park
Commissioners yesterday,. Dr. T. L. Eliot,
who has recently studied park situations
In tho East, 'read the following report:
In pursuance of a resolution passed in your
meeting of March, 1901, asking: for such in
formation concerning parfcs as might bo ob
tained during a brief visit in the Eastern
states, the undersigned has to report that hn
inspected park systents in leading cities, no
tably Washington, Philadelphia, Boston and
St. Louis. In the case of Boston there were
exceptional opportunities of studying the his
tory and methods of organlxation. The Boston
system Is what is known as the metropolitan
parks, embracing some 37 towns and cities,
and involving, during the past 20 years, a very
large expenditure, chiefly for the purchase or
new unoccupied lands, or the establishment of
great reservations along the sea shores north
and south of the metropolitan district.
An Instructive fact is the vastly Increased
betterment of private property adjacent to all
Improvements by boulevards or reserves. Tne
system as now constituted Is one of the best
in the world, and Is characterized by (1) largo
bodies of hilly land, more or less wooded; (2)
fen lands or low marshes, and (3) tracts con
tiguous to the sea or rivers and brooks empty
ing into Massachusetts Bay. These, with tne
older cultivated parks already exlstirfg, and
extensive lines of approaches or boulevards,
uniting the whole system, constitute the pra
ent metropolitan parks.
The most Interesting feature of the system
Is the parking of the shores of the rivers and
brooks. In this way a narrow strip is re
served on each side of the water run and thv
river or brook border Is beautified and broad
roadways, driving and cycle paths, for many
miles, follow the windings of the stream. Tho
expenso of acquiring these properties In so old
a community along tho rivers and ponds has
been very great, but the remaining properties
fronting thereon have Increased enormously
In values, and have In many instances oeen
taxed for tho improvement.
Tho commission has been bending Its efforts
supremely for the past 10 years to acquisi
tion of these sea shore and riparian tracts, ana
of the large mountain reserves, because own
ership by the public at this time could be
obtained at so much les3 cost than in tne
future; and delays would mean Irreparable
losses to the public, in forest destruction or
private exploitations.
The extent of the system may be Judged
from the fact that it include besides 24 prin
cipal reservations, some 200 Bmaller porlu.
Individual squares, open spaces and fields,'
included In an inhabited district of perhaps
1,000,000 people. The cost of all this, Including
expenditures of ,Jhe City of Boston proper,
and other municipalities, has been spme ?2C
000,000. One of the most conspicuous uieful
parks is that known as Revere Beach. The
city provides an extensive bathing plant, whlcn
Is self-supporting from the fees for the Indi
vidual bath houses. The shore Is open ana
Improved for six miles, and as many as 125,-
000 people have sometimes visited the beach In
a single day. When It Is known that a nvjre
handful of officials and police suffice to main
tain tho rules and order, it will bo seen what
an Immense benefit is done the public, and
how great an element of good will and harmony
Intelligent park systems promote.
It may be asked what bearing all this seems
to have upon our own situation and the future
of tho park system of Portland. I may ray
that I had some earnest conferences with
the founders of these systems, "both in Boston
and other communities, conferences in which
were laid before them the facts of our popula
tion, topography, present parks and available
means. I may refer especially to my meeting
the firm of Olmsted Bros., the leading land
scape architects of America, who have in
charge at this time the most important works
in the country, including tho new parks of
Washington City, and the great Vanderbllt
arboretum of North Carolina.
These eminent men confirmed the advices I
received, from others almost unanimously,
namely, that it Is of prime importance, very
early in the inception of the life of any park
system, that a study be made of the whale
surrounding district of a city, and that the
"eye of genius" should overlook, and define
In Droad outlines, the policy and tho direc
tions cf the movement, which can be then
followed for an indefinite future ' by tbeom
miseloners as trustees of the public, and as
their advisers for future purchases, or the
intelligent landsc&pelng of parks or open spaces
already owned. I was especially advised ot
the importance of elevations or canyona, or
rocky districts or shores of rivers, which axe
often comparatively useless except as the ex
penditure of public funds can make them re
creation grounds or highways for the people.
1 ascertained that under proper contract and
at a moderate cost a visit of some expert can
bo obtained and a preliminary study may bo
made of all the conditions of our trust as a
park commission, and the net result of my ob
servations and conferences is to say that
probably no money can be appropriated mnrt
Judiciously at the outset than the expendi
ture necessary to such a visit from a compe
tent landscape architect whose experience
would benefit us and save us many costly
errors in the organisation and development of
both the present and future parks of thu
city. I was told by one landscape, archi
tect who has seen Portland and its environs
that no city in the country has more admir
able natural features for a park system, having
as we have mountains, woods, river and

by his fellow Commissioners for the
trouble he has taken In looking up de
tails for their Information. Tho Ideas'

Agrninst Misuse of Parks.
The board decided to be more particu
lar In the care of the park blocks In fu
ture, so the use of these squares for pic
nic parties, stands, tents or booths will
hereafter be prohibited In accordance
with a resolution adopted. Carpet-beating
and the dumping of rubbish must also
be stopped. The resolution takes. In ev

The Park Superintendent was author
ized to put a man at work In Macleay
Park, whose duty will be to burn the
useless brush and clean up the debris. In
order to make that hitherto neglected
tract more presentable for visitors. A
few paths through the woods are also in
contemplation.
The question of new cement walks for
the Plaza blocks was discussed, but no
conclusion was reached. The board Is
unanimously In favor of the cement side
walks, but the matter of expense Is some
what in the way and the City Council
will be" asked to pay part of It.
IVevr Bears for the City Park.
Three pet bears are to be added to the
pit In the City Park at a cost of $60.
One of these is of the silver tip, and the
other two are of the brown species. The
bears now in the park are getting pretty
old, the board thought, and as bears
form the chief attraction for children, it
was considered wise to provide against
the possibility of the pits becoming va
cant. The new purchases are young and
very tame. '
An application was received from a
man proposing to buy the plant at the
old City Park pumping station, for 5175.
The matter was referred to the commit
tee on supplies.
The pay roll tor June, amounting to
$845, and other claims, footing up $178.30,

NEXT WEDNESDAY, JULY 10
WOODMEN OF THE WORLD WILL
BREAK GROUND.
Extensive Preparations . for tke
Great Loir-Rolling in Ah gust at
Blount Tabor.
The "Woodmen of the "World are making
extensive preparations for their log-rolling
August 3. Just what will be the out
side attendance cannot at this time be
stated, but certain It Is that it will be
very large. Every town on the line of
the Southern Pacific Railway which has
so far responded to the circular letter
sent out by the general secretary writes
that at least a coach load will come from
their place. Salem Intimates it will have
three coach loads, will bring a uniform
degree team to compete for the grand
prize, and will bring a large class of
candidates to add to the 1000 which the
Woodmen of this vicinity have gathered
together for tho occasion. Brownsville is
coming In force. The camp at that place
is one of the liveliest In the order, and
Is one which never does anything by
halves. Word from Forest Grove shows
that at least two coaches will be neces
sary to accommodate the Woodmen from
that point, and North Yamhill Will also
need two coaches to accommodate their
delegation. The managers of threshing
outfits at that place have decided to lay
off on Woodmen day, in order to allow
their men to come.
Eastern Oregon Is rising to the occa
sion, and large delegations will come from
every town In that part of the state.
Two uniformed degree teams are com
ing from Seattle, and prominent officials
of the order from several Pacific Coast
states.
Ground on Mount Tabor will be broken
next Wednesday evening at 7:30. It Is In
tended to make the occasion a gala affair.
Mayor Rowe, with a brand new shovel,
will break the ground.
Street-cars will be beautifully decorated,
and will carry members of the general
committee and prominent officials of the
city to the grounds. These gentlemen
with an orchestral accompaniment will
give the event the dignity which it de
serves. It Is desired that as many com
mitteemen from country camps as can
possibly do so come to the city and par
ticipate in this ceremony on that occa
sion. The public generally is invited to attend
and enjoy this event, which will prove of
great Interest and pleasure to all.
