lO TJTE MORNING OREGONIAN. FRIDAY, JUNE 12, 1914. EUROPE IS LEFT TO JOIN IN FESTIVAL i William and Walter Gadsby ... Hurry Home to Share in Portland's Holiday. STORY OF TRAVELS TOLD Oregon Views Seen in Motion PiC-i- tare Houses and Contrast Made i Between Conditions Found At road and in America. Not even the delights of prolonging a trip along the shores of the Medl terrean could keep two enthusiastic Portlanders, Captain William Gadsby, the pioneer furniture man, and his son, Walter M. Gadsby, from, attending the Rose Festival. The hour they arrived In New York on the maiden trip of- the Aquitania, en route for home, they engaged the fastest transportation for Portland, and iT losing less than two hours of transfer time, en route, arrived In Portland '';' bright.arid early Tuesday'in time to see the commencement of Queen Thelma's -'..'reign. "V;. . The Gadsbys left Portland March S i C' and eanea on tne eenin aooui a ion- night later. "I.,". Their Itinerary included Algiers, V. v Alexandria, Cairo, Carnok, Luxor, The- bes, general Egyptian points, Pales ?tine, Jerusalem, Judea, Jericho, Beth- ' lehem, the Jordan River, Naples, the Rivera, Vesuvius, Pompeii, Marseilles, Monte Carlo, Paris, London and Liver pool. They also bathed In the Dead gea, a body of water' In which it is said to be impossible to sink. Portland Tourists Encountered. En route to Algeria they had the pleasure of the association of two Portland tourists, O. M. Clark and C. E. Runyon, who took their own auto mobile for a general tour, which has by now taken them to Paris. "The suffragette movement in Eng land is not popular even among the women," said Captain Gadsby last night. "We were present when the delegation of suffragists attempted to call upon the King at Buckingham Palace, and saw the trouble with Mrs. Pankhurst and her lieutenants. The police were there rather to protect the raiders from the rough handling of the populace than to arrest them. J: ' Very few are in sympathy with the .-.militant aspects of their movement. Their tactics have made nearly all " classes antagonistic to their entire programme. "While listening to the charity per - formance of "The Silver King in His '-'Majesty's theater, the suffragette who cried out to the King, 'Come down, you Russian Czar,' was sitting near us. She was fashionably dressed and jeweled . and appeared to be from the aristocratic class. As she struggled against cap " ture her furs were thrown right and v left. Seats Cost $15. - "Seats at that performance sold for . $15 and the programmes, sold in the audience by leading London actresses, - : brought $1.25 apiece. The door receipts, $8500, went to the actors' fund. The play was a melodrama of 1880, sug gested for production by the King him- lieelf. - "Oregon is well advertised In Eu ,T rope, in the moving-picture shows. In I London we saw splendid views of cattle '! range lands in Harney County in a film ;:J entitled "Free Lands in Oregon." We -also saw two recent Portland fires, the fit Portland Lumber Company conflagra '': tton and the Albina dock fire. Another V film showed the girl who leaped from ,; the Portland Steel bridge." Asked what impressed them the most, '; they told of their troubles trying to ,1'vget into the pyramid "Cheops." which :'. is known as the greatest in the world. .! The tunnel that leads into this great 'i 'monument is banked with slippery ij " stones and the passageway is so shal-- low, about three fight high, that they ; had ti double up in order to get into he center. As they said they had to be aided by three men, two pushing i -and one pulling, to get into the inner i i most heart of the pyramid, where the i tomb of one of the ancient Pharaohs 'r:was hidden. ij- , i Pictures Are Taken. !.-.' They had their pictures taken on j; Z' camelback and in company with tho ,.; , Dragoman, or guide, just in front of the famous Sphinx, which adjoins "Cheops." :!; I "The natives of Egypt surprised us ;! hy their display of carelessness," said ;':, Captain Gadsby. "They live so filthily i' and primitively. Many are blind be J' .cause their eyes have never had any ; care. Their implements of agriculture are the same as they were 4000 years i ago and they draw the water out of !'! t the Nile with the same utensils they ; -i have always used. The farmers "show no signs of civilization. 1 ''t "While we are on this theme I want ; to tell you that the French are strictly ;. in advance of the other Europeans. , They are more domesticated than the other peoples and seem to have a ' higher standard of family life. Con- ? trary to what we might have expected I from general reputation, we found that v- the French women do not smoke. Even -r in the hotels we did not see any French women smoking. ; "The theatrical productions we saw f in New York excel anything we at- tended on foreign soil. Evidently the j; Continent of Europe does not now set ; the pace for America theatrically, 'i English Exhibit Declared Poor. j yz "The Anglo-American Exposition which we saw in London in celebration of 100 years of peace with the United ".'i States did not compare in excellence . " With thn TjkWifl H a rr Vvntt I held in Portland In iJftS An4 j didn't have a drink of water on the JJ whole trip that approached Bull Run. (X "General business conditions in Eu- 1 rope are good, and particularly so in jreat .Britain, wnere industries have ;' picked up materially as a result of the l lowering of tariff in the United States. ". r lVfA.ni! t SLf.t Mr Kn munHnn.l ,hta f ..mi an . . ' ly. They feel exceedingly grateful to Ij the Americans for lowering the tariff, allowing them to ship in goods at handsome profits that they were not ;i able to obtain before. In this country , ?. Portland seems to be as well off as any . "Oh, yes, I must tell you what a pro- i found impression 'The Great Light ;f Way" -of Portland made upon us when ; we saw it illuminated on our return. '. Many cities had illuminated street J schemes, but none was as effective as the Third-street arrangement." . t 'J 7 00 Masons Received by 'Wilson. ." t 1 ;f WASHINGTON, June 11. Practically ; I every Masonic jurisdiction in the r United States was represented today in f a delegation of more than 700 members of the Mystic Order of Veiled Prophets 't received by President Wilson at the, 't White House. The Masons were re- y turning to their homes from a conven- tlon in Richmond, Va. - PROMINENT POP.TLAITOERS t - -J' 1 . "'4 , i i - -v- - t fit. CAPTAIJT WILLIAM GADSBY. Oif LEFT, AND WALTER M.

FLAGS, TOO, ADD TO SCENE Queen and President Colt, of Festi val Association, Lead March and Brilliant Dance at Tne Oaks Is Opened To the stirring strains of the "Tann- hauser Marcji" the official ball of the Rose Festival was ushered in last night at The Oaks, amid a scene of marvelous beauty, augmented by its natural surroundings. It was difficult to estimate the attendance. The im mense floor, said to be the largest west -of Chicago, was a maze of hand some gowns and glittering uniforms. The whole setting was appropriate to Thelma, Queen of Rosaria, In whose honor the elaborate function was held. The entrance to the hall was thiough rose-bowered gardens, surrounding The Oaks. Myriads of softly-colored lights added radiance to the scene. Under the great trees tables and seats were placed and here a prom enade was enjoyed between dances. Decorations Are Beautiful. When the hall was reached wonders in decoration greeted the eye. White lattice work was hune over the Mof. from which golden hanging baskets iuu of crimson red ramblers were sus pended. Palms and maple boughs made a background in each box for the glittering gowns of the women. The pillars were outlined in the greenery and the effect at size was reduced by a gorgeous hanging garden in the center of the building, where beautiful roses were massed, palms towered and rambler roses swarmed. Flags formed a background effect. with every box filled. President Colt. of the Festival Association, led Queen Thelma on the floor, midst the stirring strains of the band. Princesses Follow Qneen Following the Queen came her court. each of the Princesses being escorted by a member of the Rose Festival As sociation directorate. The vivid black and white suits of the men showed in marked contrast to the late models in which many of Portland's most prominent matrons and maids were garbed. A dash of splendor was added by the royal robes oi ine viueen and her court and the golden epaulets and decorations of the officers from "Vancouver Barracks, the National Guard and Naval Reserve. wnen dancing was under way. the scene was as glittering as could be imagined. The ball will be remem bered as one of the most brilliant events of the season. The floor was in perfectacondition and dancing was enjoyable. The size of the floor made the faster two-stens and the later modern dances even more delightful than In more circumscribed surroundings. - Modern Dances Popular. The earlier part of the proeramme was confined to waltz and two-steps, but the modern, dances enlivened the late hours of the dance.
