Railroad brings the Bummer crowds to Newport in smaller contingents. However, each morning boat has Its characteristic delegation. The noon boat brings the tourists whose homes are In Albany or points south. The evening boat brings those whose firesides are north of Albany. Not only are the railroad company and the Western Transportation Com pany better able to handle the traffic of 1908 than ever before, but the peo ple of Newport are also in a much better position as well to care for the Bummer tourists. Three new boarding houses have been opened to the public, while several of the hotels have been overhauled and enlarged.

GROCERS TAKE TO WOODS ANNUAL PICNIC OF LOCAL ASSO CIATION JULY 15. Retail Storekeepers and Friends to Spend Day in Sport and Novel Amusements. Tls a strenuous work your hands have found. Tou men of tbe grocers' guild; For your smiles are source and kicks abound. There's little of leisure and plenty of pound And it's the same old grind in every round; But for one day. fun and frolic are billed And every one hopen with double distilled Your cups by the gods to the brim will be filled Tou men of the grocers' guild. Portland grocers are planning the lark of their lives next Wednesday, when the annual picnic will be held at Bonneville. Two special trains will carry the crowd to the picnic grounds and it is estimated that 2000 people will attend. The manage ment of the affair expects the biggest crowd that has yet attended the annual picnic and some entirely new and novel features will be Introduced. Perhaps the hardest stunt for some of the grocers will be the poetry-writing contest. In which prizes of silverware will be given for the best impromptu at tempts along poetio lines. .These efforts must be short and descriptive of the day's CHICAGO MAN ENJOYS OREGON TROUT-FISHING V if" ew . . . 1V FRED J. BRADY, OF PORTLAND, AND HIS GCEST, P. M. HERON, OF CHICAGO. P. M. Heron, president of a Chicago mattress manufacturing com pany, is one of the most enthusiastic admirers of the advantages of the State of Oregon. During the early Summer of every year Mr. Heron, accompanied by his family, visits Portland and Oregon, and during their stay here hs avails himself of the opportunity of Indulg ing in his favorite sport. The Chicago man recently returned to his Eastern home, but before going he accompanied Fred J. Brady, State Representative-elect, on a fishing trip to Blue Lake, near Mount Hood. The picture shows the two sportsmen endeavoring to entice the fes tive speckled beauties from their haunts In the placid waters of the lake. On the right of the picture Is shown Mr. Heron, while the fisher man on the left is Mr. Brady. sports ane pastimes, and the prize-win ning poems must be correct as to feet and rhyme. Some of the food purveyors are practicing up between customers at tnelr stores and are writing verses that they fondly hope will capture the prizes. There will be a. ladles" tug-of-war that promises to be one of the banner attrac tions of the picnic. Last year a team of Indian squaws in the vicinity of Bonne ville sauntered Into the picnio grounds and won this event easily from their pale face sisters. Secretary Merrick, of the local Grocers' Association Intends that this shall not "happen this year, and has evolved a system which will prevent Buch a catastrophe. It is his plan if these In dians appear to seize the rope in support of the grocers' wives and calmly sit down. He is confident that no Indians, however powerful, will be able to budge him, and his friends concur in this opinion. Secretary Merrick, who is in charge of the features of the picnic programme, wants it understood that the grocers of the valley towns, where there are asso ciations, will Join In the junket this year, and S. L. Kline, president of the State Grocers' Association, will be there. Mr. Merrick also announces that friends of the grocers in this city who desire to participate in the affair may do so. The baseball game scheduled between the salesmen and the grocers promises no end of fun. and the baby show is one of the new features, held for the first time this year. Just who the judges in the baby show will be Is kept a profound secret, for obvious reasons. 'It is prom lsed there will be a large number of en tries in this event and the competition for first honors will be fierce. The two special trains over the O. R. & N. to Bonneville will leave Portland at 8:50 A. M. Wednesday, arriving at Bonne ville at 11 A. M. Returning, the trains will leave Bonneville at 6 P. M., reaching Portland at 8 P. M. The picnic grounds at Bonneville have been improved during the past year and the baseball diamond is in good shape for the game. Tho contest will be the first event on the programme and will follow the arrival of the picnickers at the grounds. It is expected that every grocer In the city who can possibly leave his business on that day will attend the picnic. They promise to drown dull care and forget for the time being that there is such a both ersome thing as business. FRAUD IN JWNING DEAL Stockholders Say Montana Receiver ship Is trustified.
