bring the carnival fund up to the neces
sary amount to insure the success of
the fiesta.
Testerday members of the general com
mittee, riding in a carriage elaborately
decorated with roses, distributed through
out th city cards and. other advertising
matter announcing the show. The gayly
decorated conveyance attracted a great
deal of attention and was in Itself a
splendid advertisement of the carnival.
I One of the most spectacular features of
.the parade on the opening day will be
the appearance of 1760 thoroughly drilled
children. These children will come from
the city's schools and are being drilled
Jn kaleidoscopic movements by Professor

her expert knowledge of smart things
to wear, the clients of the Olds, Wort
man & King store are assured of a
rare treat in the way of exclusive
fashions direct from the cities that set
the styles. '
To send' a garment-buyer direct to
Europe, is an Innovation In Portland
department stores, but on account of
the ' rapidly growing business of the
suit section, and the largely increased
demand for finer goods and exclusive
styles, this. tore has found it im
perative to send a representative to
.the - fountain-head of fashion. The
most fastidious women in the Pacific
Northwest look to Olds, Wortman &
King to supply their wants for the
finer sorts of ready-made goods, and
this new.eHort. of the firm to secure
the best to be had at first hands is
only another demonstration of their
determination toi maintain their su
premacy In the garment field.
The women of Portland and the
Northwest will watch with keen, in
terest for Miss Bernard's return, for
it is expected that she will be closely
followed by many artistic creations
from the foremost makers of fine ap
parel in Europe.
It is a certainty that the clientele of
the Olds, Wortman & King suit de
partment will not be disappointed in
the results of Miss Bernard's trip, as
shown in the rich costumes and wraps
that she will purchase in the gay style
headquarters of the Old World, and
they are assured for the coming sea
son, assortments and styles that can
not be excelled In any store in Amer
ica. -

his gracious manner made a wide circle
of friends.
His death is one of tbe most mysterious
brought to the attention of the officials
for many months in this city. He left the
home of Mrs. Anna Spang, . 227 . Sixth
street, apparently in his usual good
spirits, after paying a month's room rent
in advance and leavipg money for the
payment of his laundry bill. His actions
thereafter are unknown, except that he
telephoned to the manager of the Univer
sity Club,' saying: "1 may be delayed to
night." Early; that evening he appeared
at the Graham' hotel and engaged a room,
which he occupied that night. . When the
chambermaid was on her rounds she
found the door locked, and ah investiga
tion led to the discovery that he was
dying. A physician was called, but when
he arrived Williams had breathed his
last.
The Coroner and police believe Williams
committed suicide, but they admit they
have not been able to prove this theory.
They state that. In all probability, a
chemical analysis of the contents of his
stomach would disclose poison, but the
test is so expensive It was not made.
Williams' relatives ljve In Portsmouth,
England, and are said to be wealthy.
Mrs. Spang will communicate with them.
NEXT FRIDAY FLAG DAY
Birthday of Old Glory Will Be Gen
erally Observed.
Next Friday, June 14, will be the
113th anniversary of the adoption of
the Stare and Stripes as the flag of
the United States, and throughout the
country various patriotic bodies will
Observe the day. Through the execu
tive committee of the American Flag
Association a call has been sent out
asking that the National emblem be
displayed, not only from all Federal
and state buildings, but also by pri
vate citizens. The birthday of the flag
Is coming to be more generally ob
served throughout the country, and It
Is probable that next Friday there will
be a general display of the red, white
and blue In Portland.
So far as is known the only- local
organization that will especially ob
serve the day Is the Daughters of the
American Revolution. Members of this
organization said last night that plans
are being made to fittingly commem
erate the adoption of the flag, but that
it had not been decided exactly what
lines the celebration will follow.
Superintendent Rlgler announces
that there will be no special observa
tion of the day In the schools. Re
quests have been made that the school
children parade with flags that day,
but It was decided that this will not
be done as the date comes o near that
of the children's parade in the rose
fiesta.

JOHN HAYES AND FAMILY.
IS THERE A LIMIT
TO THEIR HEALING
POWERS?
Fer-Don Medical Experts Do Away
With Poison Drugs Their Treat
ments Restoring Health
to the Sick.
MARVELOUS CUBES PERFORMED
Seeing is believing, and witnessing
the seemingly miraculous cures dal'
performed by the Fer-Don Medical Ex
perts causes the observer to ask: "Is
there a limit to their healing power?
Is there a disease they can not cure?
Is there a case so hopeless that their
methods cannot restore health?" When
Fer-Don first came to Portland he told
the people hs physicians would intro
duce methods of healing the sick which
would cause wonderment. Ho did not
ask the people to accept his word on
faith, but has proven his statements
by showing them citizens of. Portland
who have actually been cured. Volun
tary testimonials from hundreds of
people attest their faith in and the
results they have obtained from using
the treatment of these Medical Kx
perts. whose offices are at 352 V4 Wash
ington street.
"How do you see and, treatso many
people?" Fer-Don was asked. "T don't
do it." replied he. "I have my Medical
Experts to give all the treatments and
examinations and It certainly keeps
them busy. All I do Is to give my free
lectures and demonstrations nightly
from my platform at Williams ave. and
Knott st. The people have great con
fidence In these experts to cure dis
ease, as everyone has been convinced
through the evidence shown In persons
cured here In Portland.
"One other reason for so many call
ing Is the fact," said Fer-Don, "that I
have Instructed my physicians to make
no heavy charges. I want the people
to get the benefit of the remedies and
treatments which will make them well
st a low price, so my experts have
made the liberal offer that for a limit
ed time all desiring a cure from chronic
dlseasos. tumors, cancers, appendicitis,
sciatic rheumatism, gall stones and tbe
like will be treated and the charges
will be the cost of the treatment and
remedies alone necessary to perform
complete cure.
