"To get six. eight and ten delegates from small towns as far away mm Indiana and Illinois Is better than has been done by an Eastern city that has entertained Jne grand loage. "Our records snow now that we post ttvely will have 100,000 or more visitors in the city. This is a greater number than ever has been here in a single convention before. It is probable that the total attendance will reach 135,000. On the day of the parade it may go to 175.000 people, who will come In for the one day. "We will be able to take rood care of everyone who comes if the people of Portland open their homes to vis itors. We need quite a few more rooms."

Mr. Koblnson spoke enthuslas-1 tically of the entire festival and then I launched off into his, hobby, wild I beasts. I am sure that Portland people I would enjoy a arge zoological garden I in the beautiful city park," said Mr. Robinson. "Last week I visited the menagerie in the park and was as-1 tonished to see a man thrusting his I crutch at a large lion. The poor beast I was ready to go into a frenzy as it 1 did not understand such treatment. A woman also teased the bears. Wild animals to. do well must be I protected from such thoughtless per sons. A jungle .lion . becomes quite I tame after being in captivity fori awhile If it is not teased. I test our I animals by getting into the cages with them. - When I enter. a Hen's cage for the first time I keep a cha r before me. If the Hon is going to make an attack, he bites the chair ferociously, giving me time to escape unhurt. "I am fond of snakes of aU kinds. In Texas the bull snake is protected the same as the buzzard because . it kills field mice and rats. I captured an escaped- python in Los Angeles about two weeks ago by the simple method of putting a - sack over its head so that it would not see things which terrified it. With some other men I carried it back to the zoological garden. The lustre of an opal is not to be compared with the beauty of snake's scales when the rays of the I sun strike it. Mr. Robinson leaves for Africa soon. where he will gather more animals. He has orders from many shows and zoological gardens and it is necessary for him to go to many parts of the world in order to eollect the animals In demand. He is a believer in hand ling all dumb animals humanely, be I they wild or otherwise. ALBANY WILL CELEBRATE Plans to Receive Oregon Trains Are Made. Electric PERSONAL MENTION. Mrs. L. A.
