The children will travel to Silverton today In a special car attached to the regular train. Special transportation rates nave been allowed. Mrs. L. A. Griffith, of Tigard. has offered to entertain two mothers and Miss Lola E. Kuns, on the rural route near McMinnville, responding to the piea IB Tne oregonlan, says she will entertain two mothers and their chil dren.

Arrangements for a beach cottage at Gearhart have not been completed, but arrangements will be made to rent a suitable cottage. If possible A beach cottage will be used for motherB, In casj the majority of offers of country entertainment- shall call for children only. - , p. O. Gooch, who last year brought to Mr. Manning the news from Silver ton, which caused the "fresh air" move ment to be launched, yesterday made an offer of a lot at South Newport, 50 by 100 feet, as a gift to the Associated Charities to be used as a Summer camp for children and mothers. A tent rnlnnv Is the nJan Trhlch cmd-va, Ilvraco Kiddles Happy. The Ilwaco beach party Is having a royal time, according to a letter from L. u. v, imams, chairman of the com mittee. One woman urgently is re questing permission to keep the little girl assigned, to her care for the re mainder of the Summer. Tr.e Ilwaco chillren were guests at Seaview Saturday. Ice cream and cake were served and they enjoyed a dip In the ocean under the chaperonage of their hosts. Other beaches In the vlcin. Ity are becoming quite as Interested in the entertainment of the children as the Ilwaco people themselves. Among the special donations received yesterday was a gift of clothing from June McMlllen Ordway, who also ex tended the offer of her services in any way possible. Organization of the third "fresh air" party of the season, either to Dallas or Newberg, will be perfected this week and the children will be outfitted about Friday. 1 Kugese J. Rich, Mayor.

Sherwood, of Lyons, and indorsed by W. W. Little,' together with some cash. Allen, It waa charged, told Cumins that both of these men were well-to-do, but evidence was introduced today to prove that the note was valueless.

BUTTER PRICES SLUMP IlKDUCTIOW OF 2 CENTS TO GO INTO EFFECT TODAY. Prospects of Heavy Importations of Oaatside Product Prevents Stor age for Winter ITae. A general reduction of 2 cents a pound in local butter prices will be ef fective this morning. At this time of year the butter mar ket usually advances, as production decreases with the drying: up of pas tures, but just now the output is more than sufficient. This is due to the fact that practically no storing is beiDg done against the Winter demand, as is senerally the case in the Spring and Summer months. With the certainty of heavy importa tions of New Zealand and other foreign butter in the Fall, creamery-men and speculators are talcing no chances in putting away Oregon butter, As there Is not much likelihood that it can be sold at a profit later irl competition with the foreign article. The poor quality of some of the country butter that is now being placed on the city market is also a factor with which the dealers have to contend. This outside butter is being sold at whole sale as low as 19 H to 21 cents, against a jobbing price of 25 cents for the best city creamery. Cheese prices are also declining slightly, the Tillamook manufacturers announcinsra cut of half a cent a pound yesterday. The Eastern cheese market has de clined and the Oregon cheese makers have to meet it. Senate Confirms Morris. WASHINGTON. July 13. The Senate late today confirmed the nomination of Ira Nelson Jlorris. of Chicago, to be Minister to Sweden.
