ANOTHER STEP FORWARD Jn Fact, Every Lady Has a Yearning to Get Away to Some Seashore or the Mountains. The vacation microbe Is la the air, and already the Bummer girl has a longing to get a complexion of genuine tan that won't come ofTin a hurry, and add a few freckles as beauty spots. She Is not alone in the vacation fever, for practical'- ev erybody has that vague yearning at tblx season of the year to docge uix uub auu telephone calls, and hie away with a few congenial souls to cooling lake, mountain or seashore. Russell Sage may say that a vacation of two weeks simply robs the employer of that amount of time belonging to him, but Russell Sage is in a hopeless minority. He is neither a man with a family of lit tle children tired of city life and praying to Santa Claus that they might dig for marine animals along their favorite beach, nor is he a young man or a young woman who has a beloved In the Middle States or 'way back East and counts the hours when they will be together again. People who live in such a delightfully cool Summer city as Portland are lucky, -for they won't be forced to leave home to get a breath of fresh. Invigorating air, but even they will be all the better for a change for aweek or two, and will come back again stronger and better for the Summer vacation. The proposed vacation trip of the city officials to the St. Louis World's Fair has not yet gone beyond the "proposed" state. First it -was to be early in the season, then In July; finally in September, and now It looks as though the trip -was off entirely. Mayor Williams does not In tend to attend the Parliamentary Con gress at St. Louis in September, for which he received an invitation some months ago. He has not yet formed any definite plan for his Summer vacation. Vacations have not yet begun at the City Hall. By the end of this week, city employes -will begin to double up, and let one another off for a -week or ten days. "Vacations in the Fire Department have already begun. According to the charter each man is allowed ten days' vacation each year. Most of the fire-fighters pre fer to take all their days off in a lump, so Just now some are "doubling up," while others are enjoying themselves far from the sound of the fire bell. Chief Camp bell says that he -will probably take a trip on the new fireboat in lieu of a vacation. None of his assistants has yet taken leave of absence. Officials and employes of the railroad offices of Portland have just begun to dis cuss the question of vacations. It is the custom to give each man a week or two. In many cases with transportation, a schedule of dates being arranged among the men themselves, and those who re main "doubling up" to do the absent man's work. But somo of the higher offi cials are always subject to have their va cation cut short by some sudden business emergency, and somo are often prevented from going away by a rush of business just when the expected time comes. Somo prefer to let their vacations accumulate for several years, so that they can have a long rest, rather than have one every year just long enough to whet their appetite for more.

Excessive Freight Rates Receive Their Death Blow. When Eilers Piano House commenced doing business, it had a definite object. It was to furnish the best piano for the least price. This Involved a radical de parture from the antiquated methods then in vogue in this community. We abolished the practice of high prices and exorbitant profits, which in turn neces sitated our making quick sales and many of them. It also necessitated a general reduction in the expense of handling a piano. This we did very thoroughly. We commenced snipping pianos m our own patented harness device, wnlch did away with expensive boxes, and saved a deal of money. We ordered In large Quanti ties, thus securing the greatest factory discounts, and our immense shipments of pianos secured us the most advantageous freight rates. . Step by step we have acquired -our own teams and drays, and our own warehouse located right on the railway tracks. where the loading and unloading of pianos can be done very easily and at trifling expense. We are the only concern in the com munity now that is entirely independent of the middle man. who extorts an lm mense commission on every instrument sou. Now wo have cone a sten further and made a tremendous saving In freight charges by shipping our pianos 'round the Horn. The first shipment which arrived by water last week was found to be in perfect condition in every respect. In the hold of the vessel, which is hermet ically sealed, they are subject to fewer climatic changes and are free from dust and jolting, so that when tney are un packed, they are practically ready for your parlor without any tuning, rubbing or repollshing. So we are savlnir money again, and are gcing to share our saving with our patrons, Dy lumisnmg tnem line pianos at still lower prices. SALE CONTINUES. Pianos Now Reduced From $100 to $160. $25.00 Coupon Helps Buy One. Our new commodious warehouse, which Is to be equipped with every facility for handling pianos properly and at small expense, is still far from completion. and the one we have been occupying has to be turned over to Its new tenant. the Portland General Electric Company.

W0BK TO WIN CONVENTION. Portland Delegates Overcome Odds at National Charities Conference. In letters received by Portlanders from Delegates W. T. Gardner and Mrs. W. A. Mears, "who have been attending the National Conference of Charities and Corrections at Portland, Me, is de scribed the hard work" that was neces sary to bring the next conference of that organization to this" city next year. y Minneapolis, backed by the strong as sistance of delegations from the Middle "Western States, was the strongest and most dangerous competitor.

Punch FROM FOREIGN LANDS CANADA AND MEXICO, SENDING DELEGATES TO MINING. MEET. Assemblage in Portland Is Expected to Draw Larger Crowd Than Previous Gatherings. The Portland session of- the American Mining Congress, to take place here- Au gust 22 to 27, will lead any of the con gresses of the past few years In foreign representation. Canada and Mexico espe cially, neither of which were represented at Deadwood, will be in this congress. According to advices received yesterday by Secretary Irwin Mahon, they have al ready begun naming their representatives, and they are choosing men of high stand ing, who are well veiled In mines and the mining situation in their countries. The programme and early arrangements of the Mining Congress have never been In so satisfactory a condition so early In the season as this yean Secretary Mahon has been working for months, and " now has his part of the preparations well ad vanced. According to his estimate, the congress will draw a larger crowd this year than for the past few years. The attendance at Boise and Butte was -about 00, and at Denver 1500. Though the lat ter number will .not probably bereached, the first will be far exceeded-. Oregon as a mining country Is beginning to take up the attention of big mining men, and since the big strikes of the past few years there Is a large field for profitable invest ment This fact being not only well known but constantly heralded abroad by Secretary Mahon, Is beginning to have Its effect, which is evidenced by the many letters of Inquiry received by" Secretary Mahon every day. Aside from this, the appointing by the Canadian and Mexican governments of important representa tives gives the congress a standing that it has lost since the name was changed from the International Mining Congress to its present title. The programme of speakers will contain two famous orators. One of these 'Will iam Jennings Bryan has already been announced, and another no less famous man, who requests his name to be kept unpublished at present, has also signified his Intention of attending the congress. There will also be Senators and Repre sentatives and prominent men In political life, as well as those most largely Inter ested in mining. PERSONAL MENTION. A. McL.
