Trail, to 3Iacleay Park Finished.
The trail for the accommodation of per
sons wishing to visit Macleay Park, which
2j. L. Hawkins his had under construc
tion for some time. Is now completed.
Persons who wish to visit the park and
Inspect the trail should take the "Willam
ette Heights car and get off at the bridge
leading to the heights, where they will
find the trail, which runs up the canyon
through the park. And turns up Across
the Cornell road. At this point the trail
ascends a little bluff a few yards, the
only ascent In its whole length, the whole
three miles being practically level. From
the little bluff along a route which af
fords some beautiful views the trail
leads to a wagon road on the north side
of King's Heights. This road is to be
followed around the base of the hill on
an easy gride until the Barnes Canyon
road is reached, at the rock crusher.
Thence following a graded road on the
south side of the canyon, the excursion
ist comes out in the City Park, near the
bear pit. After crossing the Cornell road,
on the way home, ferns, Oregon grape,
etc, are plentiful along the trill, espe
cially In Fern Canyon, and visitors can
procure all they want. They are not al
lowed to gather ferns or shrubbery in
Macleay Park, as it is desired to preserve
this tract in a state of nature, with all
its charms of wlldness unimpaired. The
route here given, starting from 'Willam
ette Heights bridge and going up through
the park, enables visitors to have before
them all the way back the city and the
views of magnificent scenery obtainable
from mmy points on the trail, which, in
traveling in the contrary direction, they
would have behind them all the time.
Piajjs for Big A. O. U. W. Parade.
Extensive preparations are being made
for a grand pirade of members of the
A. O. U. "W. during the session of the
Supreme Lodge here. Ralph W. Felney
has been appointed grand marshal of the
parade, which will take place on the
evening of June 14. All the lodges In this
city and many from country towns will
take part, and it is expected thit there
will be not less than 5000 members of the
order in line on this occasion. All the
bands In the city have been engaged, Mr.
Feeney says, and he intends to employ a
number of outside bands. The city lodge
"which turns out the best float emblematic
of the order will receive a cash prize of
$50, and the country lodge producing the
best floit will receive the same. Mr.
Feeney is a very energetic man. and he
is bending all his energies toward getting
up a parade which will astonish the na
tives. Improvements at Woodmere. The
inarch of progress and Improvement has
now reached the Mount Scott region. At
"Woodmere, the tract formerly known as
Chicago Addition, about a mile west of
Lents, George W. Brown has six hand
some cottages of six rooms eich in course
of construction, no two of the same style.
Four of them are practically completed
and the whole will be finished in a short
time, when Mr. Brown will begin the con
struction of several more. The buildings
stand on lots of 50x100 feet, and are all of
two stories. Mr. Brown has expended
$10,000 in grading streets, laying water
pipes, setting out shade trees and Install- .
lng pumping machinery for supplying
"Woodmere with water. The owners of
other tracts in that section are preparing
to erect a number of buildings this sea
con. Roses Bloom Early. Rose-growers In
this city have quite an advantage in the
way of early blooming over those In some
other localities. In some gardens here
roses have been in bloom for three weeks
or more, and there are hundreds of roses
of many different varieties In these gar
dens now, while W. B. Slbson, who has
one of the finest collections, of roses in
this region, on the slope above the White
House road, a few miles south of the
city, plucked his first and only rose of
the season only three days ago. The ele
vation and the eastern exposure probably
account for this, but the delay will be
made up by the longer time his roses
will be In bloom.
Butter Put in Cold Storage. Large
quantities of butter have gone into cold
storage this Spring. There has been only
a small outside demand, and were it not
for storage, prices might not be so well
maintained. It is impossible to estimate
with close accuracy the amount put away,
but it is known to be very large, and
much larger than last year. The stored-up
quantities will have an influence toward
holding down prices in their upward
trend next Winter, so that people who
otherwise would get: cheaper butter this
Spring will win back their money later.
Work on White House Road. The
work of widening and improving the
White House road is well under way and
progressing rapidly. Messrs. Smyth &
Howard have some 50 men and 15 teams
employed on the Job and are at present
cutting down the bank about half a mile
beyond the cemetery and making a fill
on the east side of the road. There are
some telephone poles on the west side of
the road which the County Court has in
structed the company owning them to
have removed as soon as possible.
Civic Improvement is Different.
Thomas McCusker, of the Civic Improve
ment Association, wishes note made of
the fact that his organization is not the
Civic Federation, with which many peo
ple confound it. It was the Civic Fed
eration that recently Issued a pamphlet
'touching the qualifications of the various
candidates for office. The Civic Improve
ment Association is not in politics at all
at least not until after election, when It
will expect every public, officer to do his
duty.
Where Salmon Bite. Salmon have
been "biting" at the falls of the Willam
ette of late, and some fine sport has been
enjoyed there. Sidney Smyth caught a
36-pounder a day or two ago. It is one
of the largest ever captured there with
rod and line. The rise in the river has
put the salmon in hope of being able to
get past the falls, but very few of them
will succeed in doing this.

Spuds roa Cm Dredge. Joseph Pa
quet is engages in "getting out" the
spuds for the old city dredge at his boat
yard on the East Side. The fir sticks for
these were furnished by the Inman-Poul-sen
Company, and are S4 feet long and 31
Inches In diameter at the small end and 41
Inches at the larger end. This small differ
ence in the diameter of the ends of sticks
so'long Is considered rather remarkable. It
was the intention to square them in In
man & Poulsen's mill, but as they are to
be round and 29 Inches in diameter it was
not deemed desirable to go to the trouble
of getting them Into the mill to cut off
the small amount of timber there is to
spare, which will be sapwood principally.
It was quite a. job to get them out of
the water and in position for being hewn
to the size required. Mr. Paquet says
they are beautiful sticks, as straight as a
line, and their equal could hardly be found
out of Oregon. The spuds for the new
dredge will be several Inches more in
diameter than these, and something
longer.
Refreshments at Hunt- Club Meet.
The concessions at the Portland Hunt
Club field meet have been given to the
Portland Fruit and Flower Mission, and
the young wpmen of the society have de
termined to apply the proceeds to found
ing a children's playroom at one of the
hospitals or homes that they visit Re
freshments will be served at booths, and
15 young men have been impressed into
service to sell peanuts, popcorn, candy
and lemonade through the grandstand.
The girls will wear costumes of white,
decked with the red of the Portland Hunt
Club, and the young men. will also be re
splendent in white outing suits. Since
the proceeds will go to a very worthy
charity, the young women hope for a very
liberal and frequent patronage from all
their friends and others who attend the
meet
For New School Districts. A petition
has been filed with County School Super
intendent Robinson asking for the organ
ization of a school district between tho
Columbia River and Columbia Slough,
west of the Vancouver bridge. This sec
tion has 22 children of sohool age, and
has heretofore been without a public
school, but the residents have maintained
two private schools for the benefit of the
children. The proposed district. If or
ganized, will be a long but narrow one
and It will probably be necessary to have
a school at each end. A petition has also
been filed with Superintendent Robinson
asking that District 38, at Holbrook, and
District 84, Joint, southwest of Holbrook,
be divided and a portion of each be taken
to form a new district The petition Is
signed by 46 persons.
Buttons for Mazamas. Having re
turned in Bafety from his preliminary
reconnolssance of the route to Mount Ad
ams, L. L. Hawkins Is now engaged In
arranging for badges for the Mazamas
and their guests, to be worn during their
proposed outing. He has about decided
to have a button the size of a half-dollar
bearing a picture of the mountain they
are to climb, with the word "Mazamas"
and the date of the ascension beneath, for
the members of the association: and much
the same kind of a button without the
inscription for their guests. The Idea Is
to be able to distinguish the sheep from
the goats, as it will be the duty of the
Mazamas to devote themselves to promot
ing the comfort and enjoyment of their
guests during the excursion.
At Work on Northern Pacific Tick
et Office. The workmen employed in
the finishing up of the ornamentation of
the Northern Pacific ticket office returned
when the strike ended (?), and Agent
Charlton is himself again. The walls have
been covered with grass-green burlap, and
it now only remains to get the artistic ra
diators in place, wash the tiled floor with
acid, hang the pictures on the walls and
a horseshoe over each door to complete
the renovation. The cement sidewalk In
front is being completed as rapidly as
possible, and in a few days the street will
be cleaned up, and then the universe can
parade around the corner and gaze their
fill on the gorgeous Interior and the Im
maculate and unapproachable force.
Flowers for Dead Comrades. The
camps and auxiliaries of the Spanish
American War Veterans desirous of dec
orating the graves of their dead comrades
are soliciting flowers for this purpose for
Memorial day. Any patriotic person wish
ing to assist them with a donation of flow

Didn't Know the Donor. Under the
Influence of China gin, Thomas Minor
staggered Into the Municipal Court yes
terday, charged with stealing blankets
from a Taylor-street store. "I'm not
guilty. Wouldn't do such a thing," ex
plained Minor. "A fellow gave me those
blankets. Who is he? I don't know all
the fellows In town. He gave them to
me on the railroad. When? I don't know
the time I'm not a watch." "This case
Is postponed until tomorrow, when I hope
you'll be sober," commented Municipal
Judge Cameron.
Fired Three Shots. A shooting epi
sode in a saloon was inquired into yester
day by Municipal Judge Cameron, when
James Murray was charged with firing
three shots from his revolver at W. A.
Milan, m a saloon near Front and Colum
bia streets. Milan wished to use one of
the chairs Murray occupied, and in the
altercation that followed, one of the bul
lets grazed two of Milan's knuckles. Law
yer A. W. Wolf asked that the case be
continued until Saturday, which was done.
Early Sweet Peas. Otto Dckura, 703
Everett, claims the distinction of having
the first Oregon sweet peas in bloom.
Mr. Dekum's peas have been In bloom
for the past two weeks. The plants are
already over six feet high and the flow
ers bloom on stems from nine Inches to a
foot in length. Mr. Dekum raises his
own seeds and planted these last Fall,
taking great care of the plants during the
Winter, and he Is one of the few who
saved their peas from the frost
Unsightly Shack Removed. The de
bris of the old shack which was so long
a nuisance on Taylor street opposite A.
O. U. W. Hall, has all been cleared away
and a temporary fence built in front, to

neighborhood. The owner of the property,
who has been absent from the city, will
return in two or three weeks, when ar
rangements will be consummated for the
erection of a new building on the prop
erty. At the last regular meeting of the Re
tail Clerks' Union, No. 204, it was unani

night from Elk Creek, Glenn County,
Cal., asking the aid of the police to assist
her in finding her uncle, Theodore P.
Silvers, who s about 60 years old. Is a la

WANN PITIES CHILDREN.
So Far an Obncrvcd, However, None
of The in Seem to Be Suffering.
PORTLAND, May!E (To the Editor.)
In answer to the open letter of Superin
tendent E. F. Moorcs, of Salem, Or., pub
lished In your columns recently, I desire
to state that I have been very much
amused during this my first experience
In practical politics by the frantic ef
forts of some of my opponent's friends to
call the attention of the public away from
the Issue I have raised In my campaign.
In my Salem address I stated the truth,
as I have stated It all over this state,
that the state course of study for Oregon
schools requires nine subjects be taught
to the children of the first primary grades.
I did not state that nine books were
studied, but that nine subjects are re
quired, and I meant that this multiplicity
of subjects is the principal cause of the
poor results obtained from our schools.
When 1 said "so much Is glv.en our chil
dren to learn that nothing, not even the
essential branches, can be learned."
If Superintendent Moores, or any one
else, will glance over the state course of
study given to the schools of Oregon by
my opponent he will see that I told the
truth in regard to the number of subjects
required, and the hundreds who" heard me
at Salem will testify that I did not say
nine books, but that nine subjects are re
quired. In regard to the number of books used
I quote the exact language of my Salem
address, winch will answer Superintendent
Moores' second question, in which he as
sumes that I said a pupil Is required to
study 140 books In the eight grades. After
exhibiting the list of books adopted by
the Text-Book Commission, I stated that
4S different books are required in the eight
grades, while nearly 100 more are recom
mended for supplementary work In these
grades. Now if the state desires, he can
force the teachers to give a great deal of
this supplementary work by 'including
points in his examination questions that
are not covered by the required course,
thus increasing the work that is far too
heavy to allow anything to be thoroughly
learned. A glance at the school laws of
Oregon, page 82, section 140, will show that
Superintendent Moores has confused the
list of books for the libraries to be fur
nished by tue State Board of Education
with tue list for supplementary work
recommended by the Text-Book Commis
sion. 2Tow, I will state further that the
state course of study now In force re
quires many supplementary books to be
bought by the pupil and they have been
bought as their parents can testify. The
statement I made at Salem is not mis
leading, but Superintendent Moores vision
of it Is certainly misleading to the thou
sands who read The Oregonlan, but did not
hear me.
In answer to the last question, I say that
too many subjects ore required by Mr.
Ackerman's course of study in each of the
eight grades: for Instance, in the first
grade nine different subjects and three
drlll3 are required to be given. In the
second grade the same .number, including
a text-book on written arithmetic, which
contains matter that is entirely beyond
the comprehension of children of their
tender age.
In the other grades the number of dif
ferent subjects required to be taught, in
cluding two or three drills, range from
10 to 14. This unreasonable burden, which
requires our young children to carry home
a load of books, and do a great deal of
TALKS OUT.
Doctor Talks About Food.
It Is often the case that doctors them
selves drift into bad habits of food and
drink, although they know better, but
doctors are human you kpow like the rest
of us, but when they get into trouble they
generally know better how to get out of
It and the "food route1' is a common one
among them.
Dr. H. Barber, of Laurel, Ind., con
cluded that coffee and badly selected food
was the cause of his stomach trouble and
his loss of weight from 184 pounds 'to 153
pounds with nerves Impaired and general
nervous break-down.
He did not give coffee up at once, but
began the use of Grapc-Nuto, and says:
"Within a month I could see a wonderful
change had taken place, due to the use
of the new food. I decided to give "up
coffee and use Postum in its place. So
regularly for a time I have been on a
breakfast made up of Grape-Nuts, a lit
tle graham bread, and Postum Food Cof
fee. My weight has increased to 174
pounds, my stomach trouble has entirely
gone, and ray mind is clear and vigorous
as ever. "Wishing you every success I beg
to assure you of my warm appreciation of
Grape-Nuts ana f gsvum,"
studying outside of school hours, should,
in my opinion, be reduced In primary
grades to about four essential subjects,
with one or two drills, and the amount
of number work should be greatly reduced
fiom what it is now. until the children
have maturity of mind enough to compre
hend such work.
After a child Is trained to read intel
ligently, write legibly, spell correctly, and
count accurately, and has formed the
habit of using his mind, he will be able
to do a reasonable amount of work in all
these subjects in the upper grades, not
taking more than six subjects at a time,
without injury to his health, which must
be the first consideration in any satisfac
tory course of study. I have not, and do
not now object to the number of subjects
to be taught during the eight years, but
I do most emphatically object to he
amount of work required of the young
children, and especially to their being
obliged to take Instruction in so many
different subjects at the same time, mak
ing It Impossible for them to have a "thor
ough knowledge of the essential branches
which they will need in every-day life.
I submit this question to the voters of
Oregon, asking them to make an investi
gation of the conditions as they exist,
weigh the books their children are carry
ing home from school, and vote for the
beat Interests of the children of the state.

AGAINST BALLIET.
Former Employe Says Statement In
Circular Were Misleading.
DES MOINES. IftT May 2S. The fea
tMre of the Balllet case in the Federal
Court today was the cross-examination
of S. H. Rowland, of Marengo, la., who
testified for the Government Monday. The
feature was the admission of Rowland
that a ceitnln circular Issued by him,
and purportint to be a true statement of
the disposition of certain funds of the
White Swan Mining Company, was mis
leading. This circular was introduced by
the defense as an exhibit It is dated
June, 1001, and contaens a statement
made by Mr Rpwland to the effect that
$3000 was deposited by him for the White
Swan Mining Company in a San Francis
co bank, a portion of the amount drawn
out by Rowland against Balllet's wishes.
Rowland testified on cross-examination
that on June 6, ?1901. he drew out of a
bank in 8an Francisco the sum of $5000,
wnlch belonged to Letson Balllet This
amount, he admitted, overdrew the ac
count $1000, and that amount he re
turned to the bank. The remainder he
put In a safety deposit vault, where it
remained until June 1L the day after
the circular mentioned was published, and
then he deposited $3900 to the credit of
the stockholders of the White Swan
Company In a San Francisco bank. When
questioned as to the statements in the
circular. Mr. Rowland admitted that they
were misleading, but declined to say they
were falFe. Aside frpm this, the cross
exnrnlnutlon tended to bring out the
fact thBt Rowland, as well as others In
the White Swan Company besides Bal
llet. might have diverted funds of the
compsny. The fact was also brought
out that there were difficulties existing
between Balllet and Rowland, which may
have led the latter to turn against his
former employer.
DOG SHOW FRIDAY.
And There "Will Be a Society Event
Connected "With It.
The society editor will probably over
look the arrival in this city of Mr. and
Mrs. Snyder, but society itself will not
be so careless. True, Mr. Snyder does not
pretend to be a gentleman, nor can Mrs.
S. boast the proud title of lady. Not
withstanding this handicap, thp couple
are very popular In Portland. They are
charming entertainers, graceful dancers,
elegant dressers, popular everywhere and
never gossip about their "nabors."
Neither was ever known to speak harsh
ly, and their nature is at all times mani
fest. They have both traveled extensive
ly, but never bore one by long-drawn-out
descriptions of the many sights they have
seen. The children love them, and they
love, the children. In fact every fond
mother wishes her little ones to spend an
afternoon or evening with Mr. and Mrs.
Snyder. She knows they will enjoy them
selves Immensely, because this pair are
only two of the beautiful little animals
among the 300 comprising Gentry Bros.'
famous trained animal exhibition, which
will make this city a visit for two days
at Multnomah Field, starting Friday,
May 30.
THRIVING FRATERNAL
ORDER.
The Order of Washington, of Portland,
Is showing wonderful progress this .year.
Last week one of the organizers secured
new life applications to the society, for
which certificates were issued, amount
ing to $52,500 00 in insurance. This was
the work of but one man, and the order
has more than one dozen out Increas
ing the membership continuously. Tho
Washington Advocate, the official crgan
of the order, is just from tho press for
May and shows that the society has paid
out In benefits to Its members more than
$109,000 since organization. The order has
headquarters in the Marquam building
and is purely a home institution, being
officered by a number of Portland's well
known business men.
