H. E. Dosch Returns
From His Mission.
TO CET EXHIBIT IN 1 905
Minister of Finance Gives
Defhite Promise.
HE BELIEVES IN' RECIPROCITY
Oregon's Request for Space nt(OsaUa
Exposition Is Granted nnil Will
Renult in Transfer of St. Lonis
Exhibit to Portland.
"Get busy, did I? Well, the grass didn't
grow under ray feet. What clss happened
in Japan? It rained to beat the band all
the time."
Colonel Dosch returned home yesterday.
The above is a bunch of the words he
gave back to the first man in Portland
who cried: "Hello, Colonel." "No, don't
shake that hand; try the left one," and
the Colonel fortified his right manual
member behind his' back. "Butted into
a typhoon," he remarked, while his1
. thoughts sailed back to the Aleutian Isl
ands," and I get the wcrsc of the tussle,
Ship dropped from under me. and when
she came up again my wiist was out of
joint. Jut out of splints." and the
Colonel smiled grimly and nursed the
sore place carefully.
Mr. Dosch was emissary to the Japan
ese government in behalf of the Lewis
and Clark Exposition. Ke secured space
for an Oregon display at the3ntcrnat!onal
Japanese Exposition, which will open at
Osaka next March.
Mikado to Aid the Fair.
"The Mikado's government will gladly
aid the Lewis and Clark Fair in 1505. "
caid he. Prime Minister S. Chludo was
Immensely pleased to see an emissary
from America. The Oregon exhibit at
Osaka will be the only one from the
United States. When I told him that the
Lewis and Clark Fair would like to have
a return favor from his government in
1905, his excellency smiled and replied in
perfect English:
" 'Reciprocity, sir, is the rule of the
day. You" have come to our country. We
shall go to yours."
"It's now up to Portland and the Lewis
and Clark Board to send an exhibit to
Osaka. The display should be a commer
cial one, mind you, entirely commercial.
It should exhibit to the Japanese what we
have to sell to them. Its object will not
be to encourage immigration to Oregon,
but to promote Irade with Japan and the
Orient. This will be the essential differ
ence between the display at Osaka and
those Oregon lias had at Chicago. Omaha,
Buffalo and Charleston. The exhibit of
Japan at Portland in 1905 will be made
up on the commercial plah also.
"When should we begin work"? Right
now. We've no time to lose. Hardly more
than sir weeks remain for collection of
the exhibit. The materials should be
shipped by the middle part of next month,
for the exposition management will not
permit alterations after February 1 in the
interior of the buildings.
Kept 1005 to the Front.
"Over In Japan they know full well that
the Lewis and Clark Exposition is the
moving force behind the Oregon display.
I made this plain to them. I kept the
Lewis and Clark Fair to the front all the
time." The Japanese understand that thoy
are expected to reciprocate and recipro
cate they will, for hip excellencv the
Prime Minister said as much. With them
as wlthiui it 13 a business" proposition.
They wish to sell their .goods to us and
we wish to sell our goods to them.
"Our exhibit should be made under the
auspices of- the Lewis and Clark Fair.
The Lewis and Clark Board and the mer
chants of Portland should bear the ex-
pense. In my opinion the state should ndt
be- asked for aid. The cost will not be
more than $5000.- Only one man is needed
to accompany the display. The exposi
tion will last from March 1 to July h"
The Colonel ha a domicile out at
Hillsdale on a sidehill that slopes away
Into Washington County. Here he was
sequestered when an- Oregonian reporter
and a eketch artist, started out after
him yesterday. Walking Is fast, riding
is faster, and telephoning Is' instantane
ous and much surer of Reaching its ob
ject than the two other "methods in this
case. But everybody knows the Colonel
on the slopes that lead away toward
Hillsboro, and the two plodders at last
met his genial face. Autumn's russet
hues were creeping over the green which
had been so fresh when the Colonel had
set out on his hegira to the chrysanthe
mum land over two months before. Near
by a suburban resident was mending a
board walk and sending forth the glad
tidings with the ring of a hammer. "May
his tribe increase," murmured the Colo
nel, but Uie sore wrist supplanted the
charming thought with memories of the
sea.
Ronsrh Trip on the Sea.
"Must have been a hoodoo on board."
he added. "Rough weather all the way
acrosa One-third of the way over a ty
phoon began to chase us. The ship seemed
to stand straight up on her stern while
the waves rushed by at the rate of not
less than 50 miles an hour. Did I ntay
inside? No, sir. I wanted to see that
typhoon. When we got opposite Behring
Straits down came a typhoon from the
north. That made two typhoons. We had
to .run before them 10 Jiours in a south
east direction. Took us back on our
course, you say? Oh no. I mean the
other east, the one toward America, not
the one toward Asia.
"We lived the same day twice. Funny
isn't it? Happened on the ISOth merid
ian. Lost one day there, and had to live
it all over again. Went to bed Tuesday
night and got up Tuesday morning. But
going over we went to bed Thursday night
and got up Saturday morning, so we are
now even. At "Vancouver the discharge
pipes of the ship got clogged up. That's
where we were lucky. If this had hap
pened at oea goodness knows -what would
have come of us," and Mr. Dosch looked
fondly at his favorite apple tree. "But I
have left Japan too soon. There's more
to toll.
Royal Reception in Japan.
"The government officials received me
right royally. They were very grateful
for the recognition Portland had, giver
them. The Japanese are a proud people,
and they like to be remembered. Their
.merchants are demanding an extensive
exhibit at St. Louis in 1504 and want
2.000.C00 yen. ($1,000,000) to be expended.
Bet the Minister of Finance, on account
of big expenses on other projects, partic
ularly on the navy, does not ece his way
clear to "grant so much. However, the
exhibit-will be a great one and we'shall
get it for Portland. His excellency the
Prime Minister assured me.-of this. He
said that he would insist that a special
fund be sot aside to transfer the exhibit
to Portland. He promised to urge manu.
facturers and Individual exhibitors to dis
play their good at the Lewis .and' Clark
Fair. They will gladlj' do this here be
cause they are so eager to do it at St.,
Louis. . .
"The Japanese seek to trade with usT
Why not meet them half way? We'cifn
show them goods they will like to buy.
Flour and lumber are our chief products
they can use. And we can send them a
multitude of other things, such as sweet
crackers, candies, leather, spices, butter,
cheese, rope, condensed milk, soap.

Japan receives les3 than cine-one-hundredth

United States.
Nation la ProgrresMive.
"The nation is exceedingly ambitious.
It throbs with the pulse of progress.
Its people arc aggressive and eager to
learn. When you tell an educated Jap
anese something new to him, out comes
his notebook and down goes the Infor
mation In black and white. Within five
years Japan will have to be figured by
other nations not only as a politlcil
power, but as a commercial v power.
Within 20 years It will be a controlling
force In the commerce of the world. Up
to two years ago England dominated the
import trade of Japan. Now Germany
dominates. Why has Germany got in?
"IT RAINED IN. JAPAN TO
COLONEL II.
Because it makes the goods the Japan
ese want. England says, 'Take my good3
as they are or don't take them.' Ger
many makes the gcods the way Japanese
consumers want to have them.
"Japan's area Is about equal to that
of the States of Washington and Idaho.
In those states are about 700.00Q people.
In Japan are 43.000.C00 peop'.c The south
ern part of the island Is agricultural. In
the northern part arc mines. In Naga
saki I saw Japanese workmen construct
ing three great steamships. One of 000
tons Is nearly finished. They use pregon
pine exclusively In their shipyards." Those
piles of Oregon lumber are a welcome
sight to an Oregonian.
Space for Osaka Exhibit.
"I secured 1100 square feet of space in
the building devoted to foreign exhibits
and I hope to obtain about 200 more. I
succeeded only by accident. Thirteen
nations were asking vainly for space. I
asked for a location and was told none
was left. Let me see the floor plats I
requested. On these plats I found three
spaces on which were question marks in
red Ink. 'What do those mean?' I asked.
'Those spaces belong to Java, Guate
mala, and Cbrea,' was the reply in pure
English. Those countries have not per
fected title.' 'But I am here to perfect
title,' I said. The Japanese gentleman In
charge laughed. 'I have come all the
way from America to perfect title,' .1
persisted. 'Very well; we will sign them
over to you and send you the papers to
your hotel.' 'But I'll wait here,' I re
sponded. 'I haven't anything else to do.
Besides, I've come all the way from.
America to fix up this business."
"My persistency, my Imposing creden
tials, my high silk hat and winning ap
parel, together with the ceremony with
which I had entered the government
quarters, having come in, a swell rig at
tended by lackeys and footmen, won the
day. After a long 'parlez-vous' between
the gentlemen I secured the papers and
I have them now. Our space Is In the
best part of the building. 'When I catch
rabbits I want to go, where the rabbits
run, I reasoned.
"I feel that my mission has been highly
successful. It is useless to expect Japan
to come here unless we go to its expo
sition. I am now working on my report
to tiro Lewis and Clark Board."

.PLUM GIVEN BY FORTUNE
OMXIBUS DRIVER BECOMES OWNER
OF PORTLAND LAND.
Mrs. Brown, of Albino, Finds Long
Lost Relative, Member of Noble
Scottish Family.
From omnibus driver to a(positlon where
he Will own 640 acres of land In Portland
and probably . share in a fortune in Scot
landthis is the golden plum fate has
dealt out to Joseph Franklin Geaslen, 43
years old, now at Cincinnati, O., but who Is
about to take up hlo abode In Patton's
Addition, Upper Alblna. He has had a
narrow escape from succeeding to the es
tate of Lord Geaslen, a Scotch peer, but
it is thought that his elder brother, who
Id a Baltimore mill employe, will have that
pleasure.
This bit of good fortune has fallen on
J. F. Geaslen through the perslslent search
Instituted for him by his great aunt, Mrs.
Martha Brown, of this city, mother of
Admiral Robert William Brown, of the
United States Navy. Mrs. Brown could not
be located last night, but it may be that
she is now on her way to this city from
Cincinnati. Her name Is not found In the
city directory but the county tax list
BEAT THE BAND," SAID
E. DOSCH.
shows that a Miss Martha Brown owno
property In Patton's Addition. The name
of Lord Geaslen Is not given In a recent
edlton of Burke's "Peerage of Great Brit
ain and Ireland." Probably the title is a
new one conferred by either Queen Vic
toria or King Edward, and on that account
not given by Burke In the last edition of
his book.
The dispatches state tha.t Mra Brown's
father was the brother to a nobleman in
Scotland, Lord Geaslen, and that the latter
is an elderly man with no direct male heirs
93 far as he knows. Mrs. Brown Is the
daughter of Joseph Franklin Geaslen's
grandfather's brother.. Five years ago,
when Mra Brown's father died, In Balti
more, Md., a sum of money had been sent
from Scotland to the American heirs, and
he made his daughter promise that she
would Institute a search for the missing
heir, who was thought to be somewhere In
this country. Mrs. Brown commenced the
search by advertising' extensively, and she
got over 300 replies' from persons. who were
willing to be considered claimants of the
estate, but none of- them satisfied her as
to their genuineness. Then she began buy
ing the directories of different cities, and
looking up lost. Geaslens. Only a short
time ago one of her .relatives happened
i to be in Chicago, and. .on securing a Cin
cinnati directory, noticed the name of J.
F. Geaslen in it. This fact was communi
cated to Mrs. Martha Brown, and she ar
rived in Cincinnati October 25. She lost no
time in interviewing J. F. Geaslen and
In comparing the different family trees,
with the result that she became satisfied In
her own mind thatshe saw the long-lost
heir before her.
Geaslen stated that his elder brother
lives in Baltimore,' Md., and Is therefore
heir to the estate of the present Lord
Geaslen If the latter dice without issue.
Mrs. Brown extended an Invitation to her
newly-found relative to make his home
beside her In this city, and settled 640
acres upon him on the spot.. Geaslen is a
married man, with a wife and three chil
dren, and up to a short time ago was a
contented driver for a Cincinnati 'bus con
cern. The dispatch from Cincinnati fur
ther says that Geaslen and his family are
now on their way to this city, accompanied
by Mrs. Brown.
There Is a Miss Martha Brown who owns
property on Humboldt street, near Mary
land avenue, Patton's Addition, Upper Al
blna, and last night an Oregonian reporter
was Informed that she had lived there for
about 12 years, and left about two weeks
ago to visit relatives. The property con
sists of a house and two lots, and Miss
Brown la said to own land at Cornelius.

WARNING TO GEISLER.
Nearly Loses Liquor License for Em
ploying Girl in Saloon.
The Council committee on liquor li
censes, which was to have met Monday,
got together yesterday afternoon and took
up the petition asking that the license of
"W. Fred Gelsler, proprietor of the Owl
Saloon, at 25 North Third street, be re
voked. Affidavits were presented show
ing that a 15-year-old .girl, going under
the name of Agnes Beach, had been taken
Into the place by a man and Instructed to
tell Gelsler that she. was 17 years old.
Gelsler told her to raise her age "another
year and to say that her parents- lived
In another city, and then he offered her
employment. That was the sworn state
ment of the girl.
Officer Hawley,x-of the Boys' and Girls'
Aid Society, raid the girl was of re
spectable parentage and from the time
she disappeared from her home he had
been trying to locate her. He had called
on Gelsler and given him a description,
but after three weeks' time he heard
nothing from the saloonkeeper.
Patrolmen Bailey and Gibson said they
had received orders from the Chief of Po
lice to find the girl, and they had dis
covered her In Gelaler's saloon. She told
them she was 19 years old. and she looked
the age, but as she answered the descrip
tion they took her In charge.
A man named Gates, a friend of Gelsler,
said he had seen the girl In the saloon
and had asked her age. She answered
"13," and he told her she was a great
deal younger than that.
Chairman SIgler and Mr. Flegel .scored
Gelsler for allowing girls In his saloon,
and they favored the revocation of his
license. Mr. Cardwell said he would not
believe the girl's statement as to, her age.,
and he preferred an affidavit by her par
ents Superintendent Gardner, of the Boys'
and Girls' Aid Society, said the girl had
been in the care of the society, and that
she would not reach the age of 15 years
until November 8.
Both Mr. Cardwell and Mr. Flegel agreed
that combination houses such as the sa
loon In question should not be allowed,
and after Gelsler had been sternly re
buked the petition to revoke his license
was placed on file. Before leaving the
committee-room he was warned that If
the offense were repeated his license
would be revoked without a minute's no
tice. RICH MINES IN IDAHO.
E. W. Pnpret Reportx Progress in tbe
Fort Stevens Group.
E. TV. Paget has returned from Idaho,
where he has been engaged for six weeks
making a thorough survey of the Fort
Stevens group of quartz claims in the
southern part of Idaho County. The ore
is gold, silver arid lead-bearing quartz,
averaging about $50 a ton value.
The lode has been opened In several
places by tunnels, shafts and cross-cut3,
and found to be of uniform character and
value for a distance of over half a mile.
The group consists of five claims, very ad
vantageously situated for mining as re
gards tunnel and mill sites, timber and
water-power. The. ditch line was sur
veyed by Mr. Paget, the head gate put in.
and a water right covering 5C0 miner's
Inches was filed.
The group is reached by a good .wagon
road" over a distance of five miles from
the main state road, the principal route of
travel to the Thunder Mountain district.
The owners .of the group are A. F.Tteed,
xf this city, and associates. They have
Deen developing the property for three
years, and have great confidence in Its fu
ture. They have not yet been able to find
either wall of the ledge, though in places
they have k cross-cut for a distance of 18
feet In the ore. There appears to be a
mountain of the ore, and the full dimen
sions of the ledge are yet to be deter
.mined. So far as they know, this Is the
only large deposit of lead ore between the
Ceieur d'Alene mines and the Colorado
mines. This will be likely to cause a de
mand for the ore to be used in fluxing
copper and other base ores produced In
that region. The group is in the Marshal
Lake district, where a short time ago
several discoveries of hlgh-grado free
milling gold quartz were announced.
These free-milling ledges are generally
small, but very rich in gold. The district
is attracting a great deal of attention,
and has lately been visited by experts rep
resenting Eastern capital; and In all prob
ability the next big mining boom will
start there.
Mr. Paget brought out 400 pounds of ore
from the Fort Stevens group, which in
cludes some fine samples of carbonate of
leua anu galena.
