Interest in the road races of the Port
land Automobile Club, to be held 1he aft
ernoon of Saturday, June 12, has become
intense. The committee in charge of the
event, and President Wemme, are work
ing night and dny to make it a success.
The roads are perfect and a speed of 90
miles an hour will undoubtedly be made
in some places, especially on the down
hill course in front of the grandstand,
which Is now being constructed to hold
10.000 people. Over 80 miles has been
made in the trials.
The start and finish will be made in
front of the grandstand, opposite which
Is a large field, from which automobilists
and drivers of teams can view the race.
From both the grandstand and the box
seats an unobstructed view can be had for
several miles. The box seats are elevated
above the road from four to eight feet,
covered with a canopy top to protect the
occupants from the sun and will be' taste
fully decorated with flags and Rose Fes
tival colors. The -boxes are selling rap
Idly and only a few are left.
A special grandstand to accommodate
more than a thousand people is being
rected at Castle Edel Brau. The turn
lo be made at this place will be one of
the most exciting parts of the race. Ar
rangements have been made with the
residents and farmers along the course
f the races to admit spectators to the
5elds at 60 cents each.
Bert Dingley, who will drive the
Chalmers-Detrolts. 30 and 40. in the
races Saturday, is one of the most fa-

xhous and best known professional rac
ing drivers in the country. For years
he was a member of the Pope racing
team, having driven the Pope cars in
foreign and American contests. the
most noted of which was the Gordon
Bennett cup race In France in 1903. He
also won the Vanderbllt cup race elim
ination trial on Long Island, establish
ing at that time a record for the dis
tance. Mr. Dingley believes the course
to be the best he has .ever seen and
thinks a 60-mile average for the race
is easily possible.
Transportation trains of seven cars
each will start from East Morrison
and Water streets Saturday morning at
10 o'clock. These trains will run every
10 or 15 minutes until 2 o'clock. Each
train will carry 400 people and the
railway- company has made especial
preparations to accommodate the huge
crowd that fs expected to witness 'the
races. It is predicted that 15,000 or
20.000 spectators will be at the grand
stand and scattered around the course.
This estimation is made judging from the
intense interest taken in the big event.
On Wednesday, Thursday and Friday
evening there will be a parade of freak
automobiles. This parade will pass over
all the principal streets starting from
Seventh and Burnside streets at 7:30
o'clock.
ASKS AID TO GET WIFE
FARMER AT KKIPP WRITES TO
LOS ANGELES CHAMBER.
Because "There Are So "Very Few
"Women Here" and He Wants .
Mate in Farming.
LOS ANGELES, Cal., June 8. (Spe
cial.) Just because "there-are so very
few" women in Krupp, Wash., a German
farmer living near that city has re
quested H. B. Gurley. assistant secre
tary of the Chamber of Commerce, to
find hiin a wife.
"You may kindly excuse me by tak
ing some of your time by writing you
a few lines," is. the way he begins his
request. "I understand there are quite
a few girls in your country, and, as
there are so very few here, I take the
liberty to ask you if you could not put
a little ad in your Los Angeles papers
about some one who wanted to marry
a good German farmer."
The seeker of a wife says he owns
a farm in Oklahoma, but will sell it
as soon as he finds a partner, and buy
in the West.
"I am foreman of a fruit ranch," he
said, "but I intend to get married and
farm on my own hook."
Mr. Gurley refused to divulge the
wife-seeker's name.

HOQDIAM. "Wash., June 8. (Special.)
Local saloonmen got busy today scraping
away paint from front windows', remov
ing curtains and otherwise arranging for
a clear view of the Interior oY their places
of business In compliance with the new
criminal code which becomes effective

Otto Kleemann, architect, displays in
front of his office at 30 Grand avenue,
blue roses apparently grafted on a pear
tree, and it is the first time this color
has been seen in roses aside from the
trimmings of modern women's hats. Mr.
Kleemann, who succeeded in getting
the desired shade, gives the credit to
Professor Schwltzer, of the Eugene
University, for the Idea of crossing and
recrossing. as illustrated in a lecture
given by Professor Schwltzer on the
"Propagation of Roses." before the
Medical Association at the Commercial
Club. By crossing a green rose with
a purple rose at first a lavender color
was obtained and later a deep blue ap
peared. Mr. Kleemann refuses to dis
close the scientific legerdemain by
which he caused the pear tree to bear
the floral beauties.

LEAVE FOR SEATTLE FAIR
Visiting Japanese Go for Launch
Ride Along Waterfront and
View Points of Interest
From Automobiles.
There may be something about Portland
that has not been seen by Rear-Admiral
Ijichi and his staff during their two-day
visit here, but if so, it is because time
was insufficient and not because of any
idea or enaeavor on their part or on be
half of their hosts. The Rose Festival
committee. Consul Numano and 'several
of the local automobile concerns were the
entertainers of the Japanese visitors yes
terday. 4
In the morning Harbormaster Speier
took a party of about 30 up and down the
Willamette River and the waterfront,
using his gasoline launch for the pur
pose. All the beauties of the river were
shown and part of the Columbia River
was taken in by the party. A start was
made from the foot of Salmon street at
9:30 A. M., and the return was made about
3 o'clock in the afternoon.
With barely time for a light luncheon,
Ralph W. Hoyt, president of the Festival
Association, took Admiral Ijichi and his
brother-officers to the rose show at the
California building on the fair grounds.
Here Mrs. John W. Mlnto took them in
charge, and, assisted by officers, showed
them the beauties of the show.
Admiral Praises Roses.
To Admiral Ijichi the roses were a
veritable paradise. He was particular
ly struck by the perfume that filled
the building, and took pains to ask Mrs.
Mlnto if some prize were not awarded
for "the scent as well as for the looks
of the flower."
Paymaster Hanji Ueda used his cam
era to advantage, climbing up into the
balcony to get the best vantage point
from which to snap the massed blos
soms. An enormous crowd of women
also became the target of the camera
enthusiast.
There was hardly, one of the million
blooms that failed to be inspected.
Even the very names were closely scru
tinized, and those that had any histor
ical connection were immediately seized
upon and made the subject of relentless
questioning. Mrs. Minto particularly
found -that she had to answer a hun
dred polite but nevertheless searching
questions regarding the flowers.
Leaving the California building, the
party was driven to the residence of
Mr. Hoyt, where, with the assistance
of a number of young women, Mrs.
Hoyt served tea. Standing at the porch
of the residence. Little Louise and
Catherine Hoyt held aside an enormous
flag for the visitors to pass under.
Leaving Mr. Hoyt's house, the party
was driven to the residence of Consul
Numano on Lovejoy street, where a Jap
anese dinner was served. There were no
civilians present. Mrs. Numano, who
waited for the Consul and his- guest at
Mr. Hoyt's residence, drove with them
to her house.
Inspects Portland Hospital.
While the main party was visiting at
the rose show Staff Surgeon Kannosuke
Suzuki was driven by Dr. E. A. Rockey
to St. Vincent's Hospital for a hurried
inspection. He said that he found St.
Vincent's a modern hospital and was
sorry he had not more time to spend
there.
From Consul Numano's the visitors
were driven to the Festival grandstand
to witness the tparade. Before a their ar
rival the band from one of tlie battle
ships had taken up its position, discours
ing both American and Japanese airs.
From the grandstand the Japanese offi
cers watched the whole parade pass.
They retired to their apartments at the
Portland for a light luncheon and de
parted for Seattle by the midnight train.
The auto firms that contributed to
the enjoyment of the day by lending
machines were the Studebakers Bros.,

WASHINGTON, June 8. (Special.) One
of the most important questions consid
ered by President Taft at his Cabinet
meeting today was the selection of a new
Minister to China. President Taft has
already offered or considered offering this
post to ex-Senators Fulton, of Oregon, and
Hemenway, of . Indiana, and to William
Nelson Cromwell, of New York, all of
whom declined his offer.
It is now understood that these repeated
declinations have somewhat stirred the
Chinese Government; while, on the other
hand, President Taft regards the Chinese
post as one of the most important in his
gift. It is further understood that the
President has a man in mind for this
post, but will not make It public until it
has been definitely decided upon by hlm-

public declination may, stir up the Chi

In the meantime, until the Chinese post
is settled. It is doubtful if the President
will send in any other diplomatic nomi
nations. Youth Missing Since May 31.
