NOVEL SCENES ABOUND AT MANUFACTURERS AND LAND PRODUCTS SHOW.
Yesterday afternoon saw the Manu
facturers' and , Land Products Show
fairly launched and things running
smoothly, with practically all of the
exhibits completed and in place. The
few booths that had been unfinished at
the opening on the previous night had
been rushed to completion, and the ex
hibit halls were fully dressed for the
reception of the visitors.
It was "Sister Cities day" in the
afternoon, and visitors from all of the
cities lying within reach of the inter
urban electric service on short time
were in the crowds that flowed through
the aisles of the exhibit halls. There
were no organized delegations sent
from the sister cities, the visitors com
ing individually or in small parties.
J,ust what the favorite feature of the
chow might be would have been hard
to determine. When one was in the
manufacturers hall he would have
vowed that these booths were the
'crowd-pullers," but let him step
through the arch into the land prod- j
nets pavilion and he would be prepared
to declare that there lay the big at
traction. As a matter of fact, the
crowds of visitors covered every inch
of the show before they ltft the build- ,
ing.
Kducatlon More Than Fun Appeal.
From the manufacturers hall to the
land products pavilion they moved and
thence through the amusement section
to the free theater, where lectures and
motion pictures were being given con
tinuously. The theater bids fair to
prow a source of unending attraction.
It is a significant fact that, while the
people enjoy the amusement section,
Ihe main interest seems to be turned
to the instructive and interest
ing offerings of the exhibit booths.
The majority of the visitors who come
to the show come there "to tind out
things.,
.1. W. Brewer, of the Chamber of
Commerce, who is in charge of the in
formation bureau installed by the
Chamber, reports evidences of great
interest in the. show on the part of
tourists visiting the city.
They coine in large numbers to regis
ter and to inquire about Oregon, and
already vast numbers of Oregon Al
manacs. Columbia Highway maps and
other publicity literature have been
sriven out from that one booth alone,
lo sny nothing of the amounts dis
tributed among visiting tourists from
the various exhibit booths.
"(ianiM of t hance Closed.
Tn the amusement section yesterday
he police closed up all the games using
a wheel or other "chance" devices, but
left the lield clear for the concessions
using ball-throwing devices and other
"games of skill.' The result is that all
of the amusement concessions are be
nc metamorphosed into "games of
.ikill, and in the evening, when the
liiggest crowds are there, their section
is the center of a joyous crowd of men
and women who are eager to "try their
skill."
One concession, which was gi ving
away live ducks to whoever was suc
cessful in dropping three baseballs in
succession into a collection of lard
pnilp, was cleaned out of several coops
of ducks the first nlsrht and men and
women wandered about with protesting
ducks under their arms.
Yesterday the game was, still there,
but the lard pails were put at an angle
t-o that they would be harder to hit.
and some of the ducks escaped the fate
of their predecessors.
Sitmnlr of Food Are Varied.
Mary of the visitors to the show
i staye,d there not only through the after
noon, but all evening as well. You can't
see it all in a single afternoon, so why
pay another admission, they reasoned.
So they took dinner at the Land Show.
t One rnischt almost make a square
meal on the various samples that are
offered f rora booths in the manufac
turers' hall. Weinerwursts, pancakes,
bread, salad, loganberry juice, cider,
preserves and innumerable other dain
ties are confronting one wherever he
may turn.
It. is accordingly small wonder that
many of the visitors didn't care to go
j. home for dinner when the dinner hour
' came, but preferred to stay right there
and be "in on the ground floor" at the
opening of the evening festivities.

Loses Man lFaving With Liquor
and . Cigar Loot.
One of two burglars who robbed the
saloon of Fritz Drewf at 201 Adams
street early yesterday was captured
as he was coming out of the rear of
that place by Patrolman C. Howard
and lodged in the City Jaii.
The other-man. taking advantage of
the darkness, made his escape amid a
shower of bullets from the officer's
gun. The arrested man gave his name
as John Glendenning. According to
Officer Howard, he has been hanging
around that part of town for some
time.
The two men had stolen a quantity
of liquor and cigars from the saloon
nd were coming out the rear of the
place when Officer Howard saw them.
The broken glass in the front door
aroused the patrolman's suspicion.
a he officer immediately held the two
burglars up and lined them up against
the wall at the point of his gun. He
thought possibly there might be more
men in the saloon and hailed a pass
ing taxi driver, intending to ask him
to call the police station for help. As
he did so one of the two burglars saw
his opportunity and made a dash for
liberty, crossing the street and disap
pearing In the darkness on his hands
and feet.
John Glendenning will be tried In
the Municipal Court today.- The case
was postponed yesterday in the hope
that his companion might be taken.
