water in a downpour of rain to view
the splendid exhibits artistically ar

Chase of Salem. Airs. Chase is proud
of her ancestry and declares she is a
ctecendant of John Holland, who came
to this country aboard the Mayflower.
Included in this exhibit was a Bible
which was said to be more than 340
years old. the property of Mrs. Ellen
ICneeland of Portland.
A candlestick owned by Mrs. Sara
Stinson of Salem, which was brought
over on the Mayflower, also wasvon
ciisplay and attracted wide attention.
Other articles closely identified with
the early history of this country
helped to make this booth one of the
most beautiful offerings in connection
with the patriotic occasion.

The Indian booth was in charge of
Mrs. Frederick Stewart of Salem and

STARTS
A. M. TODAY
Symphony to Dispense Music at
Portland Auditorium To
morrow Xlglit.
In British Columbia and Washing
ton cities the concerts of the Minne
apolis symphony orchestra have been
attracting large audiences and much
enthusiasm is shown.
Last Thursday night the orchestra
played in concert in Seattle before
5000 people; last night in Tacoma,
and tonight a concert is scheduled in
Bellingham.
In Seattle Emil Oberhoffer. con
ductor of the orchestra, in an in
terview said in part:
"An actually self-supporting sym
phony orchestra is out of the ques
tion. Even in Berlin, Germany, where
there are nightly concerts, it was
found impossible. A city should view
its orchestra as it does its schools
and churches and who ever heard of
a school supported entirely by tui
tion fees? When I organized the Min
neapolis symphony orchestra 18 years
ago I had a $10,000 guarantee. Today
it is $125,000 per year. The backers
don't tell me to save they demand
the best obtainable, 'and get it. I no
longer have difficulty in getting $100
pt-r week to pay a player; the trou
ble lies in getting the player who is
worth the $100. These three elements
constitute everything cultured that a
city requires education, religion,
music.'
This orchestra appears in concert in
the public auditorium, this city, to
morrow night.
Guildo Rosi, who alleges that his
wife, Irma Kosi, refuses to associate
with him as a dutiful wife, but rath
er seeks the company of different
men. The other is that of Anna Dor
rah against Hoy Dorrah. The Dor
rahs were married in Chehalis in
1916. Desertion is alleged.
Mrs. Carrie Bragg, divorced from
her second husband, named Bragg,
now seeks the name of her first hus
band, O'Connell.
TRAVEL WILL BE HEAVY
Canadians to Visit Portland en
Route to South, Says Rail Agent.
The travel to California this winter
will be limited only by the ability of
the hotels in the southern state to
provide acommodations, in the opin
ion of William McMurray, general
passenger agent of the Oregon-Washington
Railroad & Navigation com
pany, who has just returned from a
trip to Vancouver and Victoria. With
exchange rates being recovered to a
considerable degree, the prospect is
that a large Canadian tourist busi
ness will turn southward. Reports
from the east denote the heaviest
winter travel in history. Canadian
tourists will, many of them, make
stops at Portland and other cities en
route to and from California, as they
will include these e-tops an a part of
their leisurely tours, eays Mr. McMur
ray. as they feel a friendly interest
in the cities of the Pacific northwest.
