Montrose M. Ringler, Local
Dancing Master, Introduces
; . Fascinating Step.
NATION MAY ADOPT IT

Says Movement Is Rapid Little
- One, Taken From Widely
- Popular Fox Trot.
Portland and the Nation soon may
oe twinicie ironing.
The twinkle trot has been introduced
to the National Association of Dancing
Masters, in session at Chicago, as one
of the new National dances, and dis
patches from Chicago indicated that
it Is in high favor among the arbiters
.by Montrose M. Ringler, of Cotillion
Hall, who is attending the convention.
As exDlainfid bv Professor W. D.
""Walker, of Cotillion Hall, the twinkle
trot is based on the twinkle step of the
fox trot, well-known to Portland peo
ple. The fox trot was one of the new
dances adopted last year by the Na
tional association, and also was intro
duced by Mr. Ringler.
- Twinkle Step Mr. Itinxrier'a.
- Mr. Ringler invented the twinkle
step, ana me iox trot is me oniy aance
In which it is now in use. In this
dance it is a series of fast steps in
double time at the end of a series of
Blow glides.
'. The general characteristic of the
twinkle step is a series of six trotting
Steps, and then six fast twinkle steps.
"The twinkle step is a movement that
is very hard to describe, said Pro
fessor Walker yesterday. "On account
of the very rapid movements involved
it is best learned through demonstra
tion, dui it. la laminar lu rui
people, who learned it in the fox trot.
Mr. Walker explained that Mr. Ring
ler had not informed him. previous to
his departure, of all the details of the
new dance, which, he feels confident,
Vill meet with favor.
But that sparkling, radiant, fast lit
tle movement of the twinkle step is the
one that will predominate. And Port
land people will soon be courting the
muse, Terpsichore, to inspire them
with the grace of movement and endow
them with the agility of toe that will
enable them to twinkle in proper form
on the waxed floor of gay society.
Three Portlandere Attend.
Three Portland dancing instructors
are attending the National convention,
which will be in session until August
31. They are: Mr. Ringler, M. Christ
ensen and Mrs. Fred Harlow.
Mr. Christensen. is vice-president of
the National Association, and will like
ly be on the committee on the adoption
cf new dances.
Last year two dances were adopted
by the National Association, which met
at San Francisco. These were the one
step and the fox trot. Each member
of the association is permitted to in
troduce a new step for possible adop
tion as a National dance.
The popularity of the fox trot, with
the especial fascination of that tanta
lizingly dainty little twinkle step,
would seem to be a happy augury of its
adoption.
At least the general interest that
Portland people have evinced in the
taw atnn wnillH Indirfltfl that thPV are
not only ready but eager to welcome it.
CITY MARSHAL IS FOOLED

ALBANY", Or., Aug. 27. (Special.) A
J.rail to be constructed between Detroit
and Quartzville was laid out last week
by officials of the Government Forest
Service. C. C. Hall, supervisor of the
Santlam National Forest, returned to
ills headquarters here last night and
announced that the route of the trail
had been selected so that work could
begin within a few days.

BY JOSEPH MACQUEEN.
SAN DIEGO. Cal., Aug. 20. (Spe
cial.) (Passed by naval censor.)
The ship of good luck, a great, big
happy family, the United States cruiser
New Orleans, Lieutenant L. V.. Canaga
commanding, arrived at thi3 port at
4:33 A. M. today, all well, after a trip
from Astoria, Or.. 1008 miles in four
and one-half days. On board were 69
civilian volunteers, 14 from Oregon, 25
from Washington, and 20 from Mon
tana and 141 regular members of the
crew.
There are no accidents to report
nothing to cause any anxiety. It was
a naval cruise, in which civilian volun
teers got a taste of what real, active
life is like in the United States Navy.
Tomorrow's plans are to begin gun
drill on the cruisers "New Orleans and
Colorado. The weather is pleasant and
full of sunshine, but it is not exces
sively warm.
The 14 civilian volunteers from Ore
gon are: David T. Kerr. Charles E.
Woodworth, Frederick W. Haynes,
Sherwood S. Humphrey, James W. Kerr,
Orville A. Larson. Andrew F. Lock-
wood, Joseph Macqueen. Roger New-
hall, Robert Oster. James Pyle. Wil
liam C. Reed, Lloyd L. Catterlin and
Rev. Henry "W. Davis, of Eugene.
Ihe Oregon men met together for
the first time on the afternoon of Au
gust 15 at Astoria, Or., to board the
cruiser New Orleans, but found that
she had not arrived. From 3 P. M. to
9 P. M. the budding tars waited and
several of them had already arranged
co pass tne night at hotels.
Cruiser Appears Suddenly.
Suddenly, . out of the night, there
floated the long-waited-f or white
cruiser, a mass of glowing lights. Those
of the naval pilgrims, who had already
gone to bed, were forcibly hauled out
and tne party left on a launch for
their hammocks on the cruiser. The
IRISH5PLASH IN GLEE
Foot Races in Water Is Hiber
nian Picnic Sport.
28,000 AT COLUMBIA BEACH
Fat Men Cause Miniature Tidal
Wave When They Come Waddling
and Spouting Toward Shore
to Joy of Spectators.
Irishmen of Portland and their
friends .to the number of about 28,000,
disported themselves in gaiety and
merriment at Columbia Beach yester
day. The occasion was the 38th annual
outing of the Ancient Order of Hi
bernians. There were games and prizes for all.
Most of the big crowd brought their
lunches, which were spread out under
the trees by jolly carefree groups.
Native Irish genius, with its faculty
for catching the glint of a happy idea
and reflecting it, devised something
really, new in the line of sports and
introduced the placid old Columbia to
riotous merriment.
These were foot races in the Water;
racee from away out toward the cen
ter of the river, as far as the racers
could safely go on foot, toward the
land. These races were not on the
regular programme. They were de
vised at the last moment. So popular
did they prove that three other events
were taken off the regular programme
that the water races might be sub
stituted, and two additional events of
the kind were offered.
There were water races for fat men:
water races for fat women, water
races for all men, water races for all

PENDLETON, Or., Aug. 27. (Special.) Without ceremony, Pendle
ton will occupy he- new $135,000 postoffice and Federal building on
Sepfember 3. Because of the red tape necessary before dedicatory
exercises could be held, it has been decided not to celebrate the open
ing of the building with any formal ceremonies.
The fine structure is now completed, and J. W. Roberts, of San
Francisco, supervising superintendent of Federal buildings, has made
his final inspection. On the night of September 2 Postmaster Thomas
J. Tweedy will commence moving, which should be completed by
Tuesday with Sunday and Labor day intervening.
All of the Federal offices in the city will be moved to the new
home, including the Forestry offices and clerk of the Supreme Court.

latter had been delayed outside the
Columbia River by fog.
At 8:30 A. M., August 16, the cruiser
left on her Journey. Outside, the ocean
was choppy and the fresh-water tars
eyed one another anxiously. Several
pilgrims suffered from seasickness, but
soon recovered and found their "sea
legs."
Regulars of the crew, headed by big,
brawny Frederick (otherwise "Porky")
Bormann. - boatswain's mate, for 16
years in the United States Navy, and
the civilian volunteers fraternized and
soon got to be good chums. They
began to call each other by their first
names and to provide the "makings."
The cooks provided appetizing meals.
Gymnastics Are Given.
August 17. Lieutenant C. C. Reardan
gave to the civilians a vigorous "setting-up"
drill, followed by a run
around the deck, on the "double;" con
cluding with Jumps over a broomstick,
placed two feet from the deck. Dr.
Alexander B. Hayward gave an inter
esting lecture on "first aid to the in
jured and the apparently drowned."
Lieutenant Hugh C. Frazer gave a
drill on naval tactics, with the use and
women, and water races for men and
women.
In a big. stolid line the fat men
struggled and splashed and stumbled
and spouted toward the beach, while
the crowds on the beach howled with
delight. Their broad bulks pushed the
river in front of them, shoreward, and
the river actually moved from 15 to 20
feet inshore on the beach, somewhat
after the manner of a tidal wave, as
the fat men struggled for the honors
of victory. All tbs while the big
crowds howled with delight.
The other water races proved simi
larly entertaining.
The various events included all the
popular varieties of picnic sports, such
as sprints, three-legged races, wheel
barrow races, etc.
The races began at 1 o'clock and en
tertained the merrymakers until late
in the evening. Officials of the races
were T. Q. Ryan and Andy Weinberger,
starters: Frank Mallon, J. J. Kennedy,
Frank McMenamin and M. J. Murnane,
Judges.
The events were not confined to the
Hibernians, but to all comers to the
beach.
The committee in charge of the pic
nic consisted of Frank Mallon, chair
man, and M. J. Murnane, M. J. Driscoll,
D. W. Lane, E. J. Murnane, Matt Free
man, J, J. Kennedy add Frank Mc

Financier's Son to Rejoin Regiment
on Border.
Douglas Lawson, son of Tom Lawson,
the noted financier and magazine writ
er, passed through Portland yesterday
afternoon to rejoin his company in the
Third Oregon Infantry on the Mexican
border. Mr. Lawson, who went down
with the company upon the first call of
the President, has been home on a
short furlough.
Young Lawson has been visiting at
Prineville, in Eastern Oregon, where his
father has lately frequently retired to
devote himself to his literary work.
While in town he stopped briefly at the
Benson and he took an evening train
for the southland.

operation of the Springfield rifles.
Shooting at floating targets was much
enjoyed. Another feature was drill on
the use of mats in case of ship col
lision. Curiously enough, regular Navy men
do not usually meet in the evenings
on board ship and sing en masse, but
the crew of the New Orleans did sing,
led by Rev. Henry W. Davis and Ed
ward H. Williams, of Seattle.
Weather on the entire cruise was
favorable. Fog covered the entrance
to the Golden Gate, of San Francisco,
and San Pedro and the Catalina Is
land, and consequently their natural
beauties were not visible.
Oregon volunteers behaved like vet
erans. They were quarter-deck mes
sengers, look-out men on the crow's
neet. helmsmen, engineers, electricians
and in their bare feet, washed and
scrubbed decks.
The muscular .development of the
Oregonlans' limbs won the respect of
the crew. All tne budding tars wear
regular naval uniforms and nobody
has caught cold.
Border Duty IVot Probable.
The chances are that the cruiser New
Orleans will not, after all. be sent to
Mugdalena Bay, Lower California, but
will remain in San Diego for the- next
week or so, where the naval pilgrims
will be trained In the handling of
small boats, the use of the big guns,
etc.
Early in September the run to the
North will be resumed by the New
Orleans, with a visit of two days at
San Francisco, the Columbia River
being reached about September 10 or
so. The cruiser South Dakota is ex
pected to arrive here about August 22.
The men aboard the New Orleans are
to be trained in big-gun drill aboard
the Colorado mornings and afternoons,
but will eat their meals and will sleep
on board the New Orleans. Firing of
the big guns will take place out in
the Pacific Ocean, a few miles from
this city.
BEST TREES SOUGHT
Walnut Growers' Committee to
Begin Search Next Month.
INFORMATION IS ASKED
Any Having Specimens or Hardi
ness, Bearing Heavily and With
Blight-Resisting Qualities
Requested to Report.
OREGON AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE.
Corvailis, Aug. 27. (Special.) A search
for the walnut variety that combine)
goo-j commercial qualities with hardy
and prolific tree growth has been au
thorized by the Oregon State Walnut
Growers' Asosciation, and the special
committee of five appointed to conduct
it has annonunced that it expects to
visit growers who have promising
trees about the last of September.
"There are probably several thou
sands of acres of seedlings growing in
Oregon at this time." said Professor C
I. Lewis, chief of the Oregon - Agricul
tural College division of horticulture
and chairman of the committee, "and
among them there may be Just such
varieties as promise most in Oregon.
The committee appointed to make in
vestigations of walnut varieties in Ore
gon and recommend the most promising
has already been at work on the prob
lem and has received information of
considerable value.
Invelsatlon to Extend.
"From three widely separated towns
of the Willamette Valley three promis
ing trees have been called to our at
tention. These will be investigated fur
ther, but the committee wishes other
growers who have varieties that chow
the special qualities desired would in
form the committee and a visit will
probably be made to their orchards to
study the walnut on the tree.
"It is not likely that all the best
qualities can be found combined in a
single variety, so that those growers
who have promising trees with fruit
closely approximating the requirements
are asked to notify the committee. The
Ideal walnut for Oregon is one with a
vigorous tree growth, heavy bearer and
blight resistant. The fruit should be
of good size, with medium shell tightly
closed and light-colored kernel that
fllla the shell.
Splendid Varieties Found.
"We already have some splendid com
mercial varieties, but many of. these,
unfortunately, are rather shy bearers.
Others are prolific, but lack commer
cial qualities. In recognition of these
facts the state association has author
ized the present investigation, and it Is
hoped that growers will co-operate in
this effort to benefit the Industry by
securng more profitable varieties."
The Oregon walnut industry has al
ready reached considerable proportions
and is advancing rapidly. It is thought
that the success of the present investi
gations will promote another Oregon
horticultural industry that will consti
tute a valuaDle asset to Individual
growers and to the state. Walnut men
having seedling varieties that they
would like to have investigated are
requested to send notification with par
ticulars to Professor Lewis at Oregon
Agricultural College. Corvailis, Or.
Ferry to Suspend.
The regular Vancouver Ferry will
be off the run from 7:50 tonight until
6 P. M. Thursday, owing to the diffi
culty in clearing the ferry channel
between Hayden Island and Vancouver.
While the ferry is off the run no ve
hicle or team traffic-can be handled
across the river. All passengers, how
ever, will be taken care of.
General Counsel of Central
Railway of Georgia
Tells of Growth.
COTTON PRICES ARE GOOD
li umber Market in Georgia and Ala
bama Declared to Be "About the
Same as In Oregon" ; No Short
age of Cars Experienced.
The story of a Drosnerous year in
Georgia and Alabama and of a healthy
Autumn outlook was told last night bv
M. T. Cunningham, general counsel of
tne central Hallway of Georgia, who,
with a party of four, is on a five weeks'
vacation trip. Mr. Cunningham left
Portland in his private car early today
for San Francisco. The Central Rail
way of Georgia has as its principal
terminals Savannah, Ga., Birmingham.
Ala., and Chattanooga, Tenn.
"Cotton is 14 cents, and 14-cent cot
ton means good times in the South."
said Mr. Cunningham. "An expected
shortage made the price rise, and, m
fact, the crop will be 2.000.000 bales un
der that of 1915 perhaps a 13.000.000-
bale crop altogether. The Teutonic
market is shut off. but shipments go
to England. Russia. China and Japan
the same as ever, these countries being
the principal buyers. Savannah is the
world's greatest cotton shipping port,
next to Galveston."
Southern Cities Grow,
A new set of great American cities
is springing up in the Southeast. Mr.
Cunningham said. Atlanta, aided by
splendid railway connections and by
fine tributary territory, now has 200.
000 inhabitants. Birmingham, with
iron and steel industries that have de
veloped fast, now has between 160.000
and 200.000.
The lumber market In Georgia and
Alabama is fairly good "about the
same as in Oregon, I think." said Mr.
Cunningham. "Our Georgia pine comes
into competition with Douglas fir on
the Atlantic seaboard and inland."
In one respect Georgia has an advan
tage over Oregon: car shortages are
rarely felt. Mr. Cunningham explained
that cotton is the great crop. 2.000.000
bales passing through Savannah alone,
and that cotton shipments are spread
out from September 1 to February 1.
Lumber and naval stores move In
August and peaches In June.
"The railways are thus able to keep
everything moving, except sometimes
peaches when the crop is underesti
mated," said Mr. Cunningham. "Five
thousand cars of peaches moved on the
Central Railway of Georgia thisseason.
and they went westward until they
came into competition with California
peaches.
Railway Pays Dividends.
Mr. Cunningham said business is gen
erally quite good in the states of the
Southeast. The Central Railway of
Georgia has been a consistent dividend
payer for four or five years. All the
stock is owned by the Illinois Central.
The Cunningham party is made tip
of Mr. and Mrs. Cunningham. Miss M. D.
Cunningham, sister of the host; John
D. Carswell, an insurance man, and
H. H. Bacon, a lumber manufacturer,
all of Savannah. The route home will
be via San Francisco, the Yosemite, Los
Angeles, the Grand Canyon, St. Louis
and Nashville.
CAMP FIRES DANGEROUS
Albany Reports Forest Rangers Tut
Out Eight Blazes.
ALBANY, Or.. Aug. 27. (Special.)
Campers in the mountains of this sec
tion of the state are getting careless,
according to reports made by guards in
the Government Forest Service. Eight
camDfires which were not extinguished:
by those who built them have been put
out recently by the forest rangers. One
of them was on the verge of getting
h w a v.
Warnings asking campers to put out
their fires carefully are posted through
out the forest and generally they are
followed. This season carelessness has
been shown. It is possible, the rangers
say, that the campers relied on the fact
that this has been a wet season.
The recent warm weather has made
conditions such that the utmost care
must be used.
