ARI0N8 LED PARADE
Portland Cuts a Dash at the
Sangerbund.
BROWN DUSTERS AND HATS
Sang "With the Band "Die 'Waqht Am
Rhein" Wnlla. Walla Gets Next
Annual Meeting Tacoma
Wins Song Prise.
SEATTLE, July 27. (Speclal.)-Proudly
leading the parade of the North Pacific
Sangerbund this afternoon, the Arlon So
ciety, of Portland, 50 strong, was the cyno
sure of all eyes. The members wore long
brown dUBters and soft brown hats, and
carried themselves with a swing that pro
voked repeated bursts of applause from
the assembled crowds. Leading the parade
were Patrolmen Gilbert and - Stepler,
mounted on mettlesome steeds. Then
came the band playing German airs and
popular American music. When the band
struck up "Die Wacht Am Rhein," the
enthusiasm of the marchers bubbled over
and hundreds of lusty voices joined In
singing the fatherland's national hymn.
Great Ingenuity was shown In the vari
ous regalia worn. The Portland contin
gent, which led the parade, was attired
In long brown dusters and soft brown hats,
as was also the Spokane society. The
"Whatcom Concordia members carried
white umbrellas, which they twirled rap
Idly as they marched along. The Tacoma
Sangerbund had a uniform of brown cloth
with a peaked cap to match, and carried
canes. Nearly 5000 men were In line, and
the display attracted the attenton of many
thousands of Seattle citizens, who were In
the business districts early in the after
noon, preparatory to seeking a cool spot
out at some of the parks. The parade was
shortened In order to give the members
who were to take part In the afternoon
concert enougn time to reach the pavilion.
In addition to the regular programme, a
singing contest between the various soci
eties was held. The prize was a stein
nearly two feet high, and when Judges
Charles DIerke, of Portland; John Ander
son, of Tacoma, and John Globlg, of Spo
kane, announced the Tacoma Sangerbund
the winners, the visitors from that city
at the other end of the Inter-urban rail
road broke Into shouts' of triumph. They
hurriedly filled the eteln with malt ex
tract and exultlngly passed it around.
After the concert a porJlon of the crowd
once more journeyed to the business dis
trict for dinner, but the majority were
evidently bent on making a day of it, and
stuck sturdily to their vantage-ground,
waiting for the opening number of the
dance which marked the height of the
Sangerfest's jollities. The annual ball was
largely attended, and special late cars
were furnished to care for the crowd.
MONEY MAKES THE MARE GO,
And Prosperity Makei the State Fair
Successful.
SALEM, July 27. (Special.) It takes
prosperity among the people to make a
good State Fair, and during the last few
years the success of the fair has increased
with the return of good times. This year's
exposition will be the greatest in the his
tory of the state, for the reason that the
Industrial wealth is greater now than ever
before. As compared with other years in
the last decade, there is more money in
circulation than ever before. Farmers are
paying off their mortgages and thousands
of dollars of debt will be lifted this Fall.
Business men are striving to extend their
business so as to reap the benefits of good
times, and farmers are increasing their
dairy herds, raising better horses, pur
chasing the most Improved machinery and
keeping up with the progress of the world
generally.
These conditions will combine to make
this year's fair one of extraordinary value.
The great Interest In dairying will bring
to the fair the best herds of thoroughbred
cattle in the United States, local breed
ers will be present to exhibit the stock
they have produced on Oregon ranches,
manufacturers will have on display all
the latest machinery for filling an up-to-date
silo, and for making butter and
cheese after the contents of the silo have
been turned into milk. Farmers will be
there to see what the inventor's skill has
produced for the purpose of lightening the
labors of the man with the hoe, the scythe
and the flail. Townspeople will be on hand
td see the competing displays of grain,
fruit, vegetables, hops, wool, butter,
cheese and grasses brought in by the
farmers, and the farmers will be there
to see what the mechanic, the artist, the
manufacturer and the" merchant have
brought to put on display. Everybody will
have money to spend coming to the fair.
The harvest will be big and prices good;
business men are enjoying a large trade
and are prosperous. AH will be able to at
tend the fair, and since It will be the
greatest ever held, the crowds will be the
largest ever seen on the grounds.
The trials of speed will be of unusual
Interest, for the reason that the purses are
larger than before and the entries more
numerous. Lone Oak tract is one of the
fastest on the Coast, and all the best
horses are brought here for training and
are entered for the races. As the Oregon
State Fair is in the circuit of Pacific Coast
fairs, all the attractions presented in other
Western States will also be seen here. As
the arrangement of dates -this year places
the Oregon fair before the Autumual equi
nox, there is every reason to believe that
the weather will be perfect and not rainy,
as in previous years, when the fair was
held at the time when the equinoctial
.storm Is due.
Last year the county exhibits were so
large and so numerous as to tax the space
of the pavilion, even though it had been
greatly enlarged during the Summer. The
exhibits put up by the several counties will
be larger and better, and still more nu
merous this year, and every inch of space
will be occupied with something to inter
est, to please or to Instruct the visitor.
Besides the great displays of products of
the farm, the dairy, the garden, the or
chard, the factory and the studio, visitors
will have an opportunity to witness a live
stock parade every morning, horse raceB
every afternoon, and some kind of en
tertainment in the auditorium every even
ing. ""

the worthless check called for, and on ac

RANCHER'S BAD CONDUCT
WHILE WIFE ATTENDED HIS DY
ING MOTHER HE SKIPPED OUT.
Raised All the Money He Could on
Their Property Suit to Fore
close Already Begun.
PENDLETON, Or., July 27. Later de
velopments connected with the recent
mysterious disappearance of Artie Ander
son, the extensive wheat farmer of Juni
per precinct, place his conduct in a better
light in some respects, but worse In oth
ers. He did not embezzle the funds of
Juniper school district, of which he is
Clerk, but turned the fund, amounting to
$200, over to Fred Gordon, before he left.
Anderson left some unpaid bills, but his
property is good for the amount. He had
about $800 in cash when he disappeared.
The worst feature of the case Is his
treatment of his wife. Several weeks ago
Mrs. Anderson went to California to at
tend her husband's mother in her last
sickness. After her departure Anderson
appears to have taken to drink, and when
he disappeared over a week ago, was ac
companied by an abandoned woman. Yes
terday Mrs. Anderson returned from the
funeral of her husband's mother, accom
panied by Anderson's father and brother,
only to learn that her husband had raised
all the money he could from their prop
erty, and had run away with a prostitute.
Mrs. Anderson started for Portland last
night, where she was Informed her hus
band had been seen, with the hope of re
claiming him.
The First National Bank of Pendleton
has commenced foreclosure proceedings on
chattel mortgages amounting to $3000, cov
ering S00 acres of growing wheat, a large
band of horses and a complete outfit of
farming Implements.
(Mrs. Artie Anderson arrived In this
city last Saturday night, and called at the
police station and told her story. Aided
by the rollce she started to search for her
husband, but was unable to find him in
all her wanderings and started for Pen
dleton last night.)
IMPERSONATED TRACY.
And the Joke Nearly Cost William
Nixon His Life.
SEATTLE. July 27. William Nixon, of
the disorderly district of Seattle, tried to
win a woman's affection in the guise of
Outlaw Tracy, and Is nearly dead as the
result of his foolhardy act. He told an
actress In a music hall that he was none
other than the famous desperado, and
threatened her life If she told. He made
her buy him drinks and promise to sup
ply him with money. Saturday night,
when he entered the theater, he was at
tacked by a policeman, and the propri
etor. Joe Williams, a brother of Deputy
Sheriff Jack Williams, who was wounded
In a battle with Tracy at Bothell, July
3. H ewas pounded Into insensibility, and
has not fully regained his faculties yet.
The mistake was discovered when the
man's features were compared to those of
a photograph at police headquarters. It
Is almost a miracle that the policeman did
not shoot first and investigate afterwards,
as he was told positively that the man was
Tracy and a reward of nearly $7000 is of
fered for the desperado, dead or alive.

Co-Educution and MnrrlnRC.
Xew York Sun.
"What does It matter If there are a
large number of marriages among Syra
cuse University students? They can't do
better, and the marriages are generally
happy ones."
This Is the answer given by Chancellor
James R. Day to the charge against co
education, that It is too conducive to
love-making. Syracuse University is co
educational In every department, and
there has never been any movement
against It. Every year at commencement
time a large number of engagements is
announced, and many times marriages
take place before graduation. This Is not
considered to be any reason why the sys
tem of co-education should be discarded.
Chancellor Day holding that the students
may make love all they want to as long
as they keep up in their studies.
Fashion was the old name for a certain dis
ease of the horse. It Is alluded to In "The
Taming- of the Shrew," where Petruchlo's horse
Is said to be "Infected with the fashions." Tha
complaint Is a common one now, but not among
horstx.
