CROESUS OF INDIA
VISITS PORTLAND
Famous Maharaja Gaekwar
and Wife - See City in
Finest of Autos.
RICH MAN TOURS WORLD
Owner of Almost Priccles Diamond
Necklace, Attired in Common
American Dress, Seeking Se
clusion in His Trip.
Stripped of royal robes and ostenta
tious display, Gena Khas Khel, his
Highness the Maharaja Gaekwar, G.
8. I., Samsher Bahadur, and her Higfh
ness the Marahani, C. I., of Baroda.
India, accompanied by the Gaekwar's
aide-de-camp, valet and four servants,
arrived on the Shasta Limited yester
day for a brief visit to Portland. His
Highness was met at the station and
Immediately taken for a ride about the
city in the finest automobile that could
be furnished, the machine having been
ordered from San Francisco. The aide-de-camp
and servants went to the Port
land Hotel to' prepare quarters for the
Gaekwar and his wife.
The Gaekwar of Baroda, as he Is bet
ter known, possesses fabulous wealth,
and is on a three months' trip around
the world to rest and recuperate and
restore his health, which had been in
paired by years of arduous duty as
head of the department of state of
Baroda. Four years ago his Highness
and the Maharani took a longer vaca
tion and visited the principal ctties of
the United States at their leisure. This
trip is more hurried, and he will re
main in the United States about a
month.
Royal Party Off Today.
The royal party will leave this morn
ing at 8:30 o'clock for Seattle, and
then to Vancouver- and Banff, B. C,
where his Highness will be joined by
his son. Prince Jaisingaro, who is hn
lshing his second year in Harvard and
his daughter, the Princess Indira Raja,
who left her father and mother in San
Francisco for a trip through the Yo
semite Valley. The Princess was ac
companied by his Highness' secretary.
Miss West, an English companion, and
three servants.
The ruler of Baroda, his family and
retinue of servants arrived in San
Francisco on the Siberia last Friday.
The finest suite in the Palace Hotel
was reserved for them, but after a short
visit in the Golden Gate city, the royal
group broke up and is now traveling
almost incognito.
When the family is reunited at Banff
several days will be spent in the scenic
Rockies and they will then leave for
the Great Lakes, lslting the principal
cities and making at least a part of
the trip by water. A stop of a few
days will be made in Ne-. York, from
which city the party will sail for Eng
land. The Gaekwar will be - received by
King George and later consult special
ists and noted physicians of the Brit
ish Empire about his health. A trip
to some famous watering-place in Eu
rope will, then be made, and after a
rest the royal party will return to, In
dia by way of an. Eastern route.
Wealth Is Like Croesus.
The wealth of the Gaekwar runs- into
many millions and the entrance of nis
magnificent palace in Baroda is guard
ed by four cannons, two of silver and
two of gold. Only the inner tubes of
the guns are steel. He is the owner
of the most famous diamond necklace
in the world, composed of 200 precious
stones and valued at $12,000,000. Among
other gems in his possession is the
"Star of the South," the fifth largest
diamond in the world, which is at
tached as a pendant to a diamond col
larette. Leaving the precious jewe's and re
gal dress at home, his Highness and
the Marahani are attired in common
American dress and are seeking seclu
sion. The aide-de-camp stood between
his Higness and all interviewers, vis
itors and inquirers, saying the party
had been annoyed ever since leaving
Japan, and that the Maharaja desired
quiet and rest-
ACCUSED MAN WAS FRIEND
. Estacadan Fails to Prosecute for
Alleged Theft of Watch.
Bill Irwin, accused of stealing- a watch
from J. O. Linn, was discharged from
custody in Municipal Court yesterday,
while Linn was held for $5 costs, be
cause, after wasting two Jays of the
court's time, he showed great unwilling
ness to prosecute the case.
Linn came to the city recently from
Estacada and proceeded to have a joy
ous time. He was soon helplessly In
toxicated and Irwin, who was an old ac
quaintance, relieved him of his watch.
Irwin says that he did so because he felt
sure that Linn would lose it otherwise.
That he made no secret of the fact that
lie had it was shown by the testimony
of the proprietress of the roomlng-hoUBe
in which Linn stayed, who said that
Irwin had told her that he had the watch
for safe-keeping. Irwin says that Linn
was relieved of his money by two women.
With the watch, Irwin took a wallet con
taining a deed for some land, which men
tioned a consideration of 570O.
The case was called for trial Saturday,
but before it was reached on the docket
Linn tired of waiting in the courtroom
and disappeared.
Just before the court adjourned he re
appeared in a highly intoxicated condi
tion, and postponement was had until
yesterday, Irwin being released on his
recostnizance. In the time intervening
before the trial yesterday Irwin had seen
Linn, giving him a grilling for his in
gratitude. As a result, the prosecuting
witness made a pitiable spectacle on the
stand yesterday, "giving but little evi
dence, and that unwillingly. He was
denounced on all sides, by Irwin's and by
tne state s attorneys, and was assessed
the costs of the case.

Did you see the write-up on KLAIvIATH FALLS? If not, find that paper and look in the middle of Section
Three. It will pay you to read that carefully. Coming from a disinterested man, it should carry great weight;

fever, as have Mr. Johnson, Mr. Wendlirig and other men, heavyweights in the world of finance and industry.
It makes us proud to stand shoulder to shoulder with men who realize there is something in life besides
the dollar mark, men who are developing an immense empire and laying the foundation for thousands of happy
homes. We want you to join us in this great work. If you have not found your ideal for a home, let us show you

Falls offers you a share in her million and more acreage of tillable land, her twenty thousand million
feet of standing timber, her water-power five times greaterthan Spokane, and her untold mineral resources:

On the two greatest railway systems of the United States, and the keenest business men of San Francisco, Port
land and Sacramento see in KLAMATH FALLS the commercial key to fifty thousand square miles of territory.
When men like Corbett, Shevlin, Talbot and Menefee, of Portland, decide that KLAMATH FALLS is a
good place in which to invest their moneyy can you do better than to follow the path which they are blazing to
financial success ?
We well know that the average man accepts with a grain of salt statements made by real estate dealers.
We also know that most real estate dealers have high sense of honor, but we are not asking you to accept our
unsupported word. Listen to men who have no interest there, but a desire to develop a wonderful country:
Colonel Hofer, of Salem: "I have been in all parts of Oregon, but when I stood in KLAMATH FALLS
and saw the great fan-Shaped valley stretching to the south, east and west I was forced to admit that it was
one of the very best in Oregon." J
W. D. Smith, pioneer from Vancouver: "I went to KLAMATH FALLS a skeptic, but have come away an
enthusiast. I have purchased property there and may some day make it my home."
W. W. Aldridge, Oregon City: "It certainly is the most wonderful country I have seen in Oregon."
William P. Strandborg, Portland: "If the area under the Government ditch were sown in alfalfa alone it
would bring an income to the valley of $25,000,000 annually."
We want your interests centered in KLAMATH FALLS your home if possible but we want you to know
what is there.
Phone us and we will be glad to call on you, or call and we will be glad to show you this great country in
its entirety.
