The preliminary plans of the Portland Carnival having been completed, the committee on space and exhibits has Issued an announcement that it Is pre pared to receive applications for space for the exhibits from the merchants and manufacturers of the state.

The committee Is actively negotiating for first-class music, amusements and shows, and is advertising the carnhal ahrough Oregon, Washington and Idaho, more thoroughly than oer before. Faiorable excursion rates hae been obtained from railroads, and a time limit on excursion tickets of one week has been secured. The committee therefore feels con fident of an Immense attendance at the best exposition and carnl al e er held in Port land or the Northwest. The committee rec ommends that manufacturers and others make exhibits when possible, as past experience has proved that such exhibits are the most attractive and therefore the best adertlso xnent for the exhibitor. J. F. BATCHELDEIt, LEON HIRSCH. R. J. HOLMES, B. B. RICH, Committee on Space and Exhibit';.

ORDERED MACHINERY HERE Seattle Men Bay a. Stamp Mill In Portlnnd. A Portland firm has secured the con tract for erecting a SO-stamp quartz mill on the Sea Level mine, Ketchlcan, Alaska. The plant will cost the company $G1,00, and Is to be in position for treating ore within four months. J. M. Davis, one of the stockholders of the Sea Level company, was at the Perkins yesterday, and stated that $40, 000 had been spent in developing the mine within the past three years. "We now have over 60,000 tons of ore blocked out," he said, "and as we can treat the rock at an expense of $1 per ton, we feel as though we had a pretty good property. The Sea Level mine is situated about 20 miles from Ketchlcan, and we have good anchorage within a few hundred yards of the mouth of our main shaft. At the present depth, the ledge is six feet wide, and assays of the aver age rocK make Its value about 510 per ton. "The stamp mill we have contracted for will be capable of crushing 100 tons per day, and as we propose to keep the stamps running night and day, all the year around, the vicinity of the mine win oe a lively place for some time to come. "The Sea Level Company has ample capital to put the mine on a paying basis. Governor Rogers, of Washington, is president of the corporation, and J. Eugene Jordan, of Seattle, Is business manager. Although a Seattle company, we have no hesitation in coming to Port land for our stamp mill, as this city can beat us in the matter of mining machin ery. The Portland-made stamp mills have the best name of any in the North west, and that is the reason we have favored your citizens with the contract. "The Sea Level mine is the pioneer in the Ketchlcan country. When we started in developing three years ago, there was, no settlement to speak of at Ketchlcan. Now there are hundreds of prospectors in the neighborhood and the town itself has fully 1000 inhabi tants." Although Indians are numerous on that portion of the Alaskan -coast, white men are employed altogether on the Sea Level -works, Mr. Davis said. Wages paid are about the same as paid laboring men In Seattle, though board and lodging are added. As no saloons are allowed at the mine, men are able to save money so long as they stay on the works. Denth of airs. Rachel Deardorff, Mrs. Rachel Deardorff, wife of John Deardorff, residents of Pleasant Valley, south of Powell's Valley, died Sunday at St. Vincent's Hospital, from a surgical operation.

General Summers "Will Ure This City's Claims nt Conilnp; Reunion at Salt Lake City. The second annual reunion of the Na tional Encampment of Philippine Veter ans will be held August 15, 16, 17, In Salt Lake City, Utah. General Owen Summers, of this city. Is first vice-president of the organization, and will attend the reunion. He will make a strong effort to secure next year's reunion for Portland, and Is already In correspond ence with a number of leading delegates with a view to attaining that end. The reunion would bring no less than 5000 visitors to this city. About 75 per cent of the Philippine volunteers were from the Pacific Coast, and It Is but natural that Pacific Coast sentiment will predominate in the selection of the next meeting place. General Summers feels confident of winning. He probably could have secured the convention for this year, but at the time the selection was made he felt that the local organization was not In shape to handle the convention. Since that time, however, a strong local or ganization has been formed, and should Portland secure the convention every thing will be. in readiness to make the event go off smoothly. If a party of 50 or more delegates can Tin spoiirPfl frnm Pnrtlnnd tht O TJ Xr N. will sell round trip tickets to Salt ' Lake City for the price of a' single fare $35 35.

An unknown, man, supposed tto, be a sailor, was Struck and Instantly Rllledby extra train No. 119 In charge of Conductor Donlan, on the O. R. & N. railroad track, about 100 yards north of the east end of the steel bridge, yesterday morning about 3 o'clock. Up to a late hour last night the man had not been identified. He was crushed beyond recognition. He had no papers or letters in his pockets, only a piece of chewing tobacco. P. Tomllnson, gatetender at the east side of the steel bridge, testified that shortly before 3 o'clock yesterday morn ing his attention was called to several drunken sailors who were making their way over the bridge In order to reach their ships, moored on the east side of the river. "Witness saw the men staggering and wondered how they would be able to walk down the steep stairway leading to the railroad tracks. He had seen the body of the man who was kllle"d and thought from the appearance of the clothing that he might be one of the sailors he had noticed. Witness stated that there are four ships on the east side of the river, at the Victoria and Irvlngton. docks, and was of the opinion that the dead man be longed to one of the crews. Policemen Sloan, Carpenter and Isaac son testified that they were sent over to tHe scene of the accident and saw the body of the man who had been run over by the train.'

Is the road through Sandy Postoffice, Salmon Post office and Government Camp the old Bar low road? J. H. KELLY. The little glade, or prairie at the foot of Mount Hood, on" the south side, Is called Government Camp, so Surveyor-General Meldrum states, because a party of United States troops were camped there for some time. They started to come' Into Western Oregon over the Barlow road, probably soon after it was completed, and so many Of their wagons were broken and so many of their horses or cattle strayed or died that, being without transportation, they were obliged to camp at "Government Camp." and remained there for some time, say three or four months, and when they finally came away they buried some of their guns there because they could not bring them along. The road from Sandy Postoffice up the south side of the Sandy, pat, Salmon Post- office, .connects with the Barlow road Where'- it "passes down the Zigzag, but is no part of the road built by Mr. Barlow. The Barlow road across the Cascades was built thrdugh a pass discovered by William Barlow. Previous to that time emigrants arriving at The Dalles were obstructed In their further progress toward the Land of Promise, the Willamette Valley, by the Cascade Range of mountains and were obliged to make their way down the Columbia as best they could, transporta tion facilities being very meager in those days. Mr. Barlow discovered the pass across the ra.nge named for him, and a road was built through it called the Bar low road. It came from Government Camp down Laurel Hill, a frightfully steep mountain, to the Zigzag, followed this stream to the Sandy, crossed .the Sandy, and came down the north slde, across Elk Peak, and over the Devil's Backbone, a ridge almost as steep as Laurel Hill, and recrossed the Sandy at Revenue's place. This road is not traveled now in going to Mount Hood. The road on the south side of the Sandy, from Sandy Postoffice which is something over a mile south of Revenue's by way of Salmon Postoffice to connection with the old Barlow road" on the Zigzag, was built some 15 years ago. The route of the Barlow road east from this junction has been changed so as to avoid Laurel Hill, and otherwise Improved by the company which collects toll over it. Summit Prairie, in the pass some distance east of Government Campr was taken up by a man named Campbell, who resided there for several years and made hay when the sun shone, which he sold to travelers. He Is now in the asylum and the prairie is owned by his heirs.

MANY HERE; MORE COMING Enwortn Lengncrs Visiting Portland in Large Numbers. Epworth League visitors are very much in evidence on Portland streets this week, although many have resumed their Jour ney eastward. Yesterday morning several hundred arrived over the Southern Pa cific, the regular train being run In two sections to accommodate them. Two steamers, the Regulator and Dalles City, took large parties up the Columbia as far as the cascades, and the tourists consid ered the Columbia River the finest sight of their whole trip. In the evening a recep tion to delegates was given at Taylor Street Church, which Is the headquarters of the local league In the city. An Inter esting programme was provided, consist ing of piano and vocal solos, readings, recitations characteristic of Western life and activity. A Chinese mixed quartet and Chinese" orchestra were features of the entertainment. A large party is expected this morning and arrangements have been made to meet the tourists at the Grand Central Station. The trip to the Cascades will be taken advantage of by many of them, "and this evening" the combined Epworth League chapters of Portland will assist in their reception. Bishop Earl Cranston will preside, and an addTess of 'welcome by President T. S. McDaniel will be re sponded to by prominent delegates, and the walls of the building will Teverberate with echoes from the great convention. The programme follows: Opening sons service Reading Miss Christine Nllsson, Grace church. Vocal solo Miss Margaret Beharrell, Taylor-street church. Reading' Miss Blanche Luckey, Grace church. Vocal solo -. Mrs. E. S. Miller, Centenary church. Reading ... Miss Bertha Matlock, Grace church'. Tomorrow morning the Gillespie and Davis parties are to arrive. There are about 200 delegates in each of them, and several hundred Independent leaguers will alsd swell the passenger list cf the even ing train. A reception will be held In the evening at -which Governor Geer, Mayor Rowe, -Bishop Joyce, Bishop Cranston, Dr. Cool and other prominent men will make addresses. The last of the delegates will not have passed through Portland before,the middle of August, as many of them are still lingering In California. Their tickets do not expire until the 31st of next month. The visitors, one and all, express them selves as delighted with 'Portland, and at the reception they have been given. Many of them have never been West before, and the sight of an opulent city In the fresh green hills Is a revelation to them. They put In their time to th,e very best ad vantage, taking in as many of the sights as they can, and they will have great stories to tell when they reach home of our delightful climate, advanced civiliza tion and busy marts of trade. The dele gates are from every state of the Union, and will henceforth become so many mis sionaries, whose experiences in Oregon will tend very much to advertise the state.

A. $450 fire took place yesterday after noon at Mrs. Catharine Regan's house, 135 Fourteenth street. The alarm was struck at 12:52 from box 27. One of the roomers had started to burn papers In the stove and the flames ate their way out of a terra cotta pipe and set fire to surrounding woodwork. Mrs. Regan tried to send a telephone message to fire headquarters for help, but some dif ficulty occurred In transmitting the mes sage.

This Is true In the piano business. Many a piano dealer Is inclined to sell a cheap piano because he can make a little more money out of it than by selling a better one There are not many high-grade pianos on the market today, and those with an ESTABLISHED REPUTATION are fewer still, so when you know a niano like the KNABE. STECK, HARDMAN, FISCHER, PACKARD and L.TJDWIG and "who are REPUTATION BUILDERS and have an estab lished reputation that has stood the test of 10, 20, 30. 40, 50 and 60 years, and have put their MARK AND REPUTATION high above all their competitors, whv not buy such a piano even If you have to pay a trifle more than you would nav for an inferior make? When you buy one of these pianos we are sure to add your good will to OUR REPUTATION of selling the best pianos made and our prices are right. A good piano from $150 to 5250; a better one from J250 to $300, and the highest grade piano made from $300 to $800. ALLEN & GILBERT CO. Successors to the Wiley B.
