Further Information may be ob
tained from the official dally pro
gramme. Thirty New England schoolteachers
Reached the Exposition yesterday morn
ing, alter a Journey across the continent
as -the-Kueatfl of thc-Boston Herald. There
Is but one lone, solitary, single, unprotect
ed man Jn the entire party, and he is a
reporter sent out by his paper on the
expedltlo'n. He reports a most pleasant
and agreeable Journey.
There are several well-known teachers
In the party. Some are veterans and some
beginners. Their trip across the country
has been productive of many odd Inci
dents. The first night out from Boston brought
the most exciting adventure of the tour.
One of the members occupying an upper
berth was puzzled how to get out In the
morning, finally solving her troubles by
grasping the bellrope firmly, and reached
the floor, all unconscious that she had
Stopped the train. The engineer was hav
ing a fit in the engine cab, for the call to
Itop was peremptory. The conductor went
through the train on the run and located
the trouble. He would not trust himself
to express his opinion till he was on the
platform.
Has Taught Fifty Years.
Miss Underwood, the veteran of the
.party, celebrated her fiftieth anniversary
In one school. In Coddington. Quincy.
Mass.. last April. A remarkable circum
stance is that she also received her own
elementary education in the very school
where she was afterward to teach for
Huch a long term. She has lost, during
the period, only two days on account of
sickness, and in all only two more days
on account of funerals In the family. She
tenches the S and 8-year-old grade, and
though often tempted by higher salaries
to take other grades and go to other
echools. she has held this position
throughout. She is probably the best
known woman in Quincy, receiving at
her anniversary a purse of $500 in gold,
subscribed in small amounts by Quincy
citizens.
Thirty-Nine Years in High School.
Miss Leonard has taught for 39
5'ears. always in high schools, and Miss
McGraw has only six months less of
service. Miss Leonard's birthday, num
ber unknown, was celebrated by the
party on the prairies coming out, a
tokeh of estocm being- provided out of
the fine fund, an improvised detail of
the trip, any attempt of a teacher to
talk shop entailing a fine of a nickel.
An interesting incident coming out was
nt the Indian Head headquarters of
the famous Northwest Mounted Police.
The striking uniforms of the police
created havoc with the camera films
of the party, and at Medicine Hat a
raid was made on the town for cam
era films for use in the mountains.
At Victoria, B. a, the Lieutenant
Governor, Henri G. Joly Lobbrlniere,
entertained them at an Informal tea.
growing out of a tour of the govern
ment building grounds. He pointed out
some beauties of the landscape in an
unguarded moment and soon found
himself furnishng material for several
bulky and remorseless notebooks.
Mock Trial in Special Car.
Yesterday there was a mock trial
In their .special car, the sedatest mem
ber of the party being on trial for
flirting, found guilty and fined a box
of chocolates, to be given the judge.
Both attorneys appealed the case, to be
retried on the prairie going home.
During a stop at a station south of
Seattle, the merriment of the trial was
taken to indicate a wedding party,
several fellow-passengers and Ore
gonlans from tiie platform com
ing in to tender congratulations, but
stayed for a while to follow the legal
travesty.
The members of the party are
chnrmed with Oregon scenery, being
particularly struck by the small fruit
found everywhere of a quality never
found at home. The height of cultiva
tion in the Valley of the Cowlitz .was
NbLAND
a revelation to the visitors, -who, like
many Easterners, looked upon th
West as more or less of a wilderness.
OX THE FIRST CALM DAY

make an ascent In his airship, tho "An

of the high wind, but he is anxious to
have his Initial trip at the Exposition

can be guided without difficulty in heavy
winds, but during a blow it is hard to ef

EXPOSITION ATTENDANCE, 16,391
Attendance at the Exposition jester
day numbered 10,301.
Rejoicing In .their common brother
hood, members of mountain-climbing
clubs gathered at the Exposition yes
terday In honor of the Mazama day ex
ercises in thp Auditorium. Enthusias
tic mountaineers from the East and
West spent the afternoon recounting
to each other their experiences In the
wilds of New England, among the
giant trees of California, and on the
snow-clad slopes of the white peaks
of the Pacific Northwest.
Never before in the history of Amerl
can mountain-climbing have there been
representatives of so many parts of
the United States present In a single
meeting. Big delegations from the Ap
palachian and Sierra Clubs combined
with the Mazamas to make the day a
memorable one!
For many weeks Mazamas have been
making active preparations for a fit
ting: programme for their day at the
Exposition. When It was finally known
that, beside their own members, there
would also be present delegations from
the Appalachian and Sierra Clubs. It
was seen that tho meeting of mountain-climbers
would be a most repre
sentative one.
Exercises in Auditorium.
Shortly before 3 o'clock the moun
taineers began filing Into the Audi
torium. All were furnished with little
badges bearing the club emblem and
the word "Mazama" In big type. The
hall was well filled by the time the
exercises began.
A majority of those present were
members of the recent automobile ex
cursion to Mount Hood, and those who
were not accustomed to climbing snow
capped peaks showed It. Some were
sunburned almost beyond recognition,
but all were happy. The ruddy glow
on every cheek showed those who had
taken nature's outdoor remedy for hu
man Ills.
H. H. Northup, good Mazama of long
standlg and president of the club,
presided over the exercises of the af
tornoon. De Caprlo's Administration
Band furnished several musical num
bers, which" were loudly applauded.
Mr. Northup introduced President
Goode. of the Exposition Corporation.
During the course of his welcoming ad
dress, Mr.. Goode said:
''Members of the Sierra, Appalachian
and Mazama Clubs, I hereby tender
you an official welcome to the Exposi
tion. 1 assure you that we are under
deep obligations to ripu for turning out
to these exercises so generously.
"I am ashamed to say that I have
never climbed any of these high moun
tains, so I cannot talk with you on
many topics that are doubtless of great
interest to you.
"It Is our scenery that attracts East
ern people. Many have seen larger Ex
positions than this on in commemora
tion of Lewis and Clark, but there has
never been a Fair with such beautiful
surroundings. Great crodit is due the
Mazamas for bringing the mountains of
our Northwest states into favorable
notice. It is due largely to the mem
bers, of that organization that the pec
pie of the East know about our snow
capped peaks."
In the name of the Mazamas. Mr.
Northup welcomed the visiting moun
taineers to the exercises. He spoke a
few words op the history of the Ma
zamas. how the club was founded on
Mount Hood 14 years ago, and how th
membership was limited to porsonn
who had climbed to the top of a moun
tain upon whose sides existed everlast
ing glaciers. His remarks were heart
ily applauded by the audience.

"We find that we must get back to
the mountains again now and then,
and this time we have come a long- way
from California to do so. Wc are all
like the giant that had to remain in
touch wit ft Mother Earth or he would
lose, all lAs strength. We have to keep
In touch with nature."
The last speaker of the day was Will
iam A. Brooks, of the Appalachian Clul
of the Atlantic Coast. Mr. Brooks lives
in the Wellesley Hills, near Boston, and
is an enthusiastic mountaineer. Hi
spoke of the difference that existed be
tween Eastern and Western mountains,
and that perpetual snow and Ice werp
strange things to many members of
his club.
"There is something- about tho moun
tains that raises our idclas and our
morals." said Mr. Brooks.
Immediately after the exercises in
the Auditorium, the Mazamas held an
informal reception in the Forestry
building- in honor of the visitors. The
time was spent swapping- - tales and
stories of experiences. Out on th
north steps of the building- a picture
of the mountaineers was taken. Including-
members of the three different clubs
that participated In yesterday's exer
cises. Today the visitors will be taken up
the Columbia River on the steamer
lone, probably as far as Cascade Locks.
The boat will leave at 7 o'clock. This
evening- a large excursion of more than
200 will leave over the Northern Pa
cific at 11 o'clock, for Tacoma, where
the party will travel by tho Tacoma &
Eastern to Ashford. Here the climbers
will hit the trail for Longmlre-Springs,
on the Upper Nlsqually. and finally Par
adise Vallev. on the south side of the
mountain. This will be the main camp I
for two weeks, during- which time the
mountaineers will explore Mount
Rainier.
First to Climb Ttnlnier.
This ascent of Rainier will be honored
by the presence of General Hazard
Stevens, of Boston, who made the first
ascent of Rainier in 1870. with P. B. Van
Trump. General Stevens will carry with
him on the climb the Identical alpenstock
that he used on that occasion 35 years
ago, the first alpenstock that was ever
carried to the summit of Mount Rainier.
The fir.t ascent was made by way of
Longmire's Springs. Paradise Park and
Gibraltar, which Is practically the same
route that will be followed this year. As
many of the rocks, and what are now
notable and familiar landmarks were
named by General Stevens, the presence
of this explorer at Slazaraa campflres
will add an unusual interest to the pres
ent outing.
Starting before daylight. August 17. 1S70.
tho two young athletes reached the sum
mit at 5 P. M., after 11 hours of hard,
unremitting toll. They had expected to
return the same day, and had, therefore,
left behind them In camp their coats and
blankets, which left them entirely un
protected from the Icy blasts that swept
the summit. Finding that It waS neces
sary to remain all night on the peak they
sought ono of the three craters and warm
ing themselves by the jets o steam that
issued from the racks, they built them
selves a wall of stones to shelter them
from the Wintry hurricane. But the smell
of the sulphur, as well as the whistling
winds that froze their steaming, saturated
clothing, made the night anything but
comfortable. But in spite of this unusual
exposure to the elements on tho summit
of the snow-peak they were able to make
the slow and dangerous descent of the
mountain In safety the following day.
TWO-BIT RATE IS POPULAR
Trail Feels Effect of the Reduction
in. Admission.
The inauguration of the 25-ccnt rate has
done more to popularize the Exposition
at night than any other action taken by
the management to increase the attend
ance. The results wenc immediate, the
increased attendance being noticeable
Tuesday night, when tho reduced rate
went into effect.
Llberatl's band, which has always been
successful In drawing many people, is at
tracting even larger crowds. Hundreds
of people assemble every night to hear
the concerts which are steadily growing
jnore popular.
The concessionaires are delighted, and
instead of the rank pessimism with which
they were afflicted only a few days ago,
they arc now taking a more cheerful view
of their prospects, and very few expres
sions of dissatisfaction are heard among
them. Tho crowds at night have moro
than doubled since tho night rate went
Into effect.
With very few exceptions the Trail at
tractions are making money. Although
none, of the concessionaires Is growing
rich, all are making enough to tide them
over until the arrival of larger crowds.
However, they "have not abandoned all
hops of securing Sunday opening, and
