REACHES PORTLAND IN SAFETY About flail Orders Then She Promptly Geta Lost In the Crowd and Ik Rescued by the Police She's to Lle 1 r Here. L.lttle May Pippin, a 7-year-old glrljwho Journeyed all the way from Coleford, England, to Portland, without other care than that ol attentive steamship men, railway conductors and passengers, stepped from a train at the Grand Cen tral Station at 7 o'clock yesterday morning and -was received, w Ith outstretched arms by her affectionate uncle and aunt, Mr. and Mrs. John Wendt. The young trav eler was apparently not in the least wear ied by her long trip, and she shook her long black curls and laughed merrily as iher relatives took her to their home at 95 Tenth street At the family residence May proceeded to make herself fully at home, and Mr. and Mrs. "Wendt, who have no children, gave her full permis sion to exercise the privilege. , In the afternoon May, escorted by an older girl and accompanied by several youngsters, attended the theater, and she enjoyed the performance thoroughly. "When the audience was dismissed she and the other girls left the theater and May immediately lost herself in the crowd. A diligent search was made for her, but she could be found nowhere. As a last re sort, the services of the police were called for, and Mrs. "Wendt was informed that a little girl, answering May's de scription, was held at the station await ing the arrii'al of a claimant. May, who had passed several days in the towns of New Tork and Chicago, had simply lost herself in the great city of Portland. "When asked' about her disappearance, she said she met a man with a star and told him her name. She could not tell him her address. "And he gave me a ride In a big wag on," she said, with apparent relish. Mrs. "Wendt, who is a sister of May's lather, and who was greatly agitated when she learned of the child's disappear ance, told her that she must not stray away from her companions again, and May reassuringly answered that she never "got lost at home." Little May evidently had a very pleas ant trip across4 the Atlantic "I knew everybody on the ship," she said. "I was not sick at all, but other people were. The only time I didn't feel well was when something felt funny in my throat," and May gave an imitation of a person in the second stages of sea sickness. At New Tork May met Miss Zula Tumbree, a school teacher of Colfax, Wash., who accompanied her to Port land and gave her ex'ery attention. "She's a nice lady," May said, when speaking t her escort Talking about other friends she made on the trip. May said they were all "very nice." Evident ly all thought a great deal of the little girl, for Mrs. "Wendt has received letters from a number of ladies, and one of them said she would send a watch to May. As May's Journey was very rapid, she could not tell much about the strange sights she saw. Her father, she said, accompanied her to Southampton and piacea ner on a large vessel ana she A SPECIAL 01 Tailor-Made Suits WITHOUT A PARALLEL.

TWO BOYS LEAVE HOMES Hal Garner and Ray Cnrner Mysteri oualy Disappear. Two boys of CasUe Rock, who have been attending school In Portland for some months past, disappeared from their homes about a week ago and have not been heard from since. One of them, Hal Carner, was a student at the Park School, and resided with his mother Jn this city. A week ago Saturday he left home and since that time his mother has been unable to learn anvthlne of his when he left, and she thinks he is seek ing work somewhere up the Valley. He had no reason to leave home, she said, excepting that he did not want to go to school. He had often said that he would seek work rather than attend school, and his mother thinks he is looking for employment in some place in the Willa mette or Columbia Valley, Hal Is about 16 years old. Earl Clarke, also of Castle Hock, was of the same age as Hal, and was his closest friend. He lived at University Park and .. attended the Portland Busi ness College. The, last seen of Earl was on the morning of AprU 6. Why he left only he himself can tell. He had come to Portland to reeclve a business education and he had always been very studious. He had never made any re marks about leaving the city. Mrs. Carner said yesterday that sho knew of no reason why the boys should have left their homes, and that she could tell nothing of their whereabouts. From inquiries which she had made she was certain they had not gone In the direc tion of Castle Rock. They had. she thought, gone up the Willamette Valley and she would very thankfully receive any information about them- Old Fashioned or Up It's your own Ittult if you don'thave a proper umbrella 111 A or Paraso1 Yu could have UCilC the best if you used Ailesina's JOHN ALLESINA TWO STORES: 2SC Washington St. 309 "Morrison St., Near Meier & Frank Co.
