able to Induce the landlady to send
her property to her. In a letter to

him to help her. She says:
"I have written to my dearest friend
there. Miss Bertha Jacobson, of 10
Eleventh street, and she writes me
a letter, which I Inclose, to the effect
that the landlady refused to turn my
things over to her."

mail delivery service in this city. The
"f business at this distributing
point has increased until 17 carriers
rtiJlT reluireJ to handle the mail
distribution. The service, however, has
not been up to expectations, It having
been discovered that mall from that
location cannot be delivered as expe
ditiously as It can from the main build
ing. It was from this reason that the
order of discontinuance originated. Un
der the contract between the Govern
ment and Dr. Andrew c. Smith, the
latter has assured the postal author
ities that he will have his new build
ing, a portion of which has been leased
by the Government as a postal dis
tributing station, ready for occupancy
on October 1, next. This building is
located at Fifth and Glisan streets.
Should its erection not be completed
by October 1, as planned, the 17 car
riers attached to sub-station E will be
transferred temporarily to the main
postofflce building until the new dis
tributing' quarters can be occupied.

CROWDS TO BE AMUSED
COUNTRY CLUB WILL PROVIDE
ATTRACTIONS FOR FAIR.
Features of Spectacular Nature Will
Be Secured to Draw Throngs
to Big Racing Meet.
Profiting by the experiences of last
year, the Portland Fair and Livestock As
sociation is planning a series of attrac
tions both by day and night that will beat
anything that has been held In Portland
since the Lewis and Clark Fair. Several
acres of the 90-acre tract will be pre
pared for the concessions which are to
be asked for, and this part of the prelim
inary arrangement Is in hands of Su
perintendent Pratt who is working out a
plan for utilizing all available space in
side the grounds.
One of the first concessions which will
be taken care of will be a huge dancing
pavilion larger than any other in the city.
The amusement committee is preparing
.bids and will present them to amusement
promoters asking them what class of at
tractions they will be able to furnish in
addition to handling this feature.
Space Is to be allotted for about 25
concessions, chiefly night attractions and
these will be secured in conjunction with
the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition and
the State Fair. The purely amusement
feature is to be emphasized at this year's
meet.
Last year the time between the comple
tion of grounds, track, barns and grand
stand was so short that no effort was
made to draw crowds by offering inci
dental features, but this year an attempt
will be made to secure balloon racers, air
ship events and similar spectacular attractions.

night. It is -not enough that we give
a brilliant card of races for the six days
or place on display the finest array of
blooded stock In the West. "We have got
to entertain and amuse the public aside
from that. Offers have come to us from
Eastern amusement promoters and from
the bids made we shall select the best
we can with the funds available."
In the matter of encouraging Interest
in the coming Exposition, the directors of
the Portland Fair and Livestock Associa
tion have decided to appeal to 250 of the
leading business men and merchants of
the city to assist in the campaign to raise
the J2S.O0O guarantee fund. Less than 3300
tickets for the week are tc be sold and
an effort will be made to have the big
mef tho cltJr 8 out on Wednesday
and Thursday, July 14 and 16 and sell
season tickets among their fellow busi
ness men.
"The finest list of talent that ever ap
peared on a track In the Northwest will
take part In the six days of races here
m September," said Secretary Wisdom,
. North Pacific Fair Circuit, last
nighty "We have most of the applications
in. The rest will be In hand by the end
of this week."
