S TRIBUTE TO AMERICA PORTLAND THOROUGHLY DELIGHTED
. . OVER THE BRILLIANT PROSPECT , X
Lovers of Japanese. Art, Curios, Wares'and Manu
factur.es have a rare opportunity to secure valuable ar
ticles froniFair Japan at small cost.
$400,000
iWorth of the finest goods known in Japan were sent to
the Lewis and Clark Centennial Exposition for exhibi
tion purposes. This magnificent collection is the best
product of over 200 manufacturers, artists and curio col
lectors, and is now displayed in the Oriental Building at
the Fair.
Not more than one-half of this superb exhibit has
been disposed of, and father than reship these beautiful
wares and manufactures to Japan, many of the exhibit
ors are willing to
Sacrifice Their Exhibits
Some are willing to accept the cost price in Japan. This
would 'be a mere pittance as compared to the selling price
in the art emporiums and dry goods storesvand bazars
of America. It inqans a rar bargain at about 25 per cent
of the old selling price. The exhibitors believe that the
distribution, of these beautiful goods and art works on
the Pacific Coast will prove a valuable Advertisement for
the home market. In order that this beneficent result
may be secured for local connoisseurs and all others in
terested, a number "of .
Prominent and Influential Citizens -
Qf Oregon and Washington have taken advantage of the
situation and organized a
SOCIETY OF JAPANESE ART ADMIRERS
Patrons of this great sale are guaranteed more
values than c'an be obtained in American marts. It is the
intention of the society to give away ; -
ABSOLUTELY FREE
One thousand dollars' worth of fine Japanese, articles -at
'the Oriental building, on the Lewis and Clark . Fair
Grounds. , The cheaper articles among the exhibits Ifave
been sold. Onlythe very best and very choicest goods
remain.
iMany of the most prominent state, count', city and
Exposition officials are honorary members of the society.

of Japanese Art Admirers can do so by applying at the
society's headqu'arters in the Oriental building, where

Up the River.
CRUISER CHICAGO COMING
Torpedo-Boat Destroyer 'to Remain
In ort';Six Weeks and Bo
Uolned by Admiral Good-
'ich's Flagship.
.Vith an up-to-date trip made in record
time, the United States torpedo boat de
stroyer Paul Jones arrived In the harboH
yesterday In time to enter into the ccle
"Dration o Portland day
Had time been kept of the actual ar
rl'al In Portland of the Paul Jones it
is believed that a new record would have
been established on the river. The little
war vessel left up from Astoria at 12:15
yesterday afternoon, and, averaging 18
knots, arrived Lelow the steel bridge be
fore 5 o'clock and then delayed dropping
into her anchorage at the foot of East
Oak street until 5:30 o'clock. Bven with
this full elapsed time the vessel is in the
record class.
Tho Paul Jones came in from Bremer
ton, leaving there on Friday morning,
and "Will remain in the harbor for at
least six weeks. She is no Btranger to
Portland, her last yislt being made In
July of 19CU. Since then the destroyer has
been up and down the coast from Mexico
to Puget Sound. Her officers and crew
at this time consist of Lieut J. F. Mar
shall, Jr., Ensigns W. T. Conn, Jr., and
M. S. Davis and sixty-five men.
That the men were glad to be in Port
land and in time for Portland's day was
shown in the haste with which half the
crew reached the shore and started for
the trail.
Within a month the Paul Jones will
"be Joined In Portland by the cruiser Chi
cago, the flagship ol the Pacific Squad
ron, under command of Admiral C. F.
Goodrich. The Chicago is now under
going repairs at the Bremerton Navy
Yard. The flagship will remain in Port
land for two weeks and then, accom
panied hy the Paul Jones, will proceed
South lor winter target practice. This
will probably bo held at Magdalena Bay,
where the entire Pacific fleet will be ac
sembled. It is thought the Paul Jones will be
open to visitors by this afternoon.
HINDER IS DISQUALIFIED.
Minnesota's Captain Owed Allegi
ance to Two Countries.
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 30. Captain
John K. Hinder, of tha Minnesota, will
have to vacate his citizen a papers, .ac
cording- to a report on his case on the
way to "Washington from Secret Service
Agent John H. Helms. The investlga
tion prosecuted by Helms developed the
fact ,that after captain Kinder had
taken out his first intention papers, in
1887, he went back to his native land.
England, and entered service as a sub
lieutenant In the Royal Naval Reserves,
This was done in 1891 and vitiated his
citizenship candidacy, begun in 1887.
The report of the Secret Service Bureau
also alleges that Captain Rlnder did
not sever his connection with the Eng
lish reserves antll the very day he be
came a full-fledged citizen of the United
States. He appeared 1n the Superior
Court in this city on October2, 1803,
aria ' was naturalized; thejt''.he wrote
out his resignation as a "British ocer
and sent it "by mail to'the -Keglatra. of
Shipping at Idndon. it 'was not unill
November 19 of he same year that he
received notification 'from that source
that his resignation had been accepted.
According to this, Captain Rlnder was
for one month both a British Lieuten
ant and an American citizen.
He was born In Lincolnshire, Eng
land in 1S59, and was in service on
English vessels from the time he was
old enough to ship until 1903. While
serving on the White 8tar Line, from
New York to England, he received his
appointment as Sublieutenant in the
Royal Naval Reserves. He was pro
moted to the rank of Lieutenant in
1896, or nine years after he had taken
his first steps to citizenship in the
United StateB. Besides Captain Hinder,
there were 21 other cases of fraudu
lent citizenship disposed of today by
Secret Service Agent Helms. Twenty
one bogus papers were taken to the Su
perior Court and declared void.
