"Hood River Valley will never look so beautiful as next Friday when the Commercial Club's blossom excursion to The Dalles and Hood River Is run," la the news brought to Manager Chap man yesterday by C. N. Clarke, presi dent of the Hood River Commercial Club. This organization has arranged all preliminaries for welcoming the Portland excursionists when they reach Hood River, and a delightful day Is promised. "I was out In the orchard yesterday," said Mr. Clarke, "and I never saw such big blossoms. They look like roses. The trees are now Just bursting into bloom, and by the last of the week the view across the orchards will be mag nificent. The blossoms will then be at their best, "The prospects for a record-breaking apple crop could not be better. The es timate of 1,000,000 boxes of apples from Hood River Valley for the season is likely to be exceeded. The Commercial Club Is arranging to handle both ex cursions from Portland, although a speclsl sub-committee Is managing the details of the Portland Press Club's trip on Sunday. "The trip up the valley on the Mount Hood Railroad Saturday will be one well worth taking. The jaunt will be delightful. The railroad runs along the river part of the way and for the re mainder of the journey It passes through the orchards that have made the name of Hood River famous. Sat urday night we will give the excursion ists a smoker and banquet in the Odd fellows' halL" A big shipment of cherry, peach and apricot blossoms was received at the Commercial Club yesterday from The Dalles and the welcome gift was used to decorate the clubrooms, so as to give the members an idea of the beau ties of the country they are to visit Friday and Saturday. The excursion ists will leave Portland from the Union Station at 8:45 A. M. Friday, going over the 0.-W. R. & N. Railway. Marconi's wireless station at Coltona. Italy, sends messages to this country, over a distance of 4000 miles. BISOfriS IN CAPTIVITY HEAD OP MYTHICAL- HERD IS SEXT TO ROCKPJXE. G. Walker Wilson Pleads Guilty to Vagrancy and Is Sentenced to Serve Six Months. "Every man his own examining- phy sician," was the plan used by Q. Walk er Wilson to get recruits for the non existent "Bison Herd of North Ameri ca," for which be received yesterday In Municipal Court a sentence of six months at the rockplle. Out of 10 known victims who paid Wilson $5 or $10 to become a "Bison." all are physicians, and each one. It de veloped yesterday, was promised the position of examining physician. For passing upon the eligibility of candi dates they were to receive $2.60 from each applicant. From information received from San Francisco, the detectives learn that Wilson operated on the same plan there, but had a short run, because one of the first men approached happened to be a police surgeon. Some of the documents found on the person of the prisoner verge upon the ludicrous. A typewritten copy of the by-laws had been drawn with a pro vision that no saloon-keeper should be eligible to membership, but this was stricken out and a clause inserted providing- that there should be no dis crimination against men In the liquor business. The constitution provided that all true Bisons were to wear a white fez with tassel. Membership of the supreme lodge was limited to 150.- 000. A "black book" was to be kept for the recording of the names of Bisons who proved false to their trust Wilson carried a commission as su preme organizer, signed by himself The prisoner is a man of striking ap pearance, well dressed and appearing much younger than 49, which he gave as his age. He pleaded guilty to a charge of vagrancy and all othet charges are dropped. There were 186.917 negro soldiers In th Northern Army during the war of secession. iwJsTai Chick Life Insurance Insure the life and health of your baby chicks by feeding Routledge's High Quality Chick Feed, the most profitable and convenient food you can get.
