The Teacher's Duty MEM'S I r i (ft ijv ll I Ill Hi . ' is V i $ - . I " i ; V SPREADING the fame of the Alaska-Yukon-Paciflo Exposition, a spe cial train of Seattle and Tacoma peoplo reached Portland yesterday afternoon on their ' way to Southern California. Their mission la to unite the Pacific states and invite all to visit the' fair at Seattle this Summer. The visitors were entertained here on their way south and left last night after ex pressing their appreciation of Port land's hospitality. The special excursion party Is headed by Mayor Miller, of Seattle; I. A. Kadeau, director-general of the expo sition; Secretary Tandell. of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce, and Secretary Et. Clair, of the Tacoma Chamber of Commerce. After viewing the city yesterday from special trolley cars, the entire party was dined at the Commer cial Club at 6:30 o'clock, and upon the completion of the dinner speechmaking was the order of the day. After the meal was over. President Vetherbee. of the Commercial Club, who presided., introduced Mayor Lane, who made a short speech of welcome. Mayor John Miller, of Seattle was next introduced, and responded gracefully to Portland's welcome to the party. '"I wish to express to you the deep appreciation we feel for this hospital ity to us." he said. "I can only hope that when the fair is opened we may Imitate the hospitality Portland showed during: the Lewis and Clark Fair." C. C. Chapman spoke for Portland, saying he wanted the visitors, as they go down the Coast, to remember that they always have a welcome here wait ing for them. Ho also urged the trav elers that when all the visitors to the fair reach Seattle to send some of them down to Portland to see the sights of this city. George H. Stone, of Tacoma, made an Interesting address, and said:' "It is said to be the secret of hospitality to make the guest feel perfectly at home. If this be true, Portland certainly is a perfect host. We have come from Puget Sound to fulfill a mission. ,"V"e are going to have an exposition next Summer, and we are here to speak of the things we have tnere. We want to invite you t. come up and visit us. This new fertile region has greater op portunities than any other spot In the world. Nowhere else is everything so Invltlny. We believe no trip the cltlr ens of the East can make will be worth his while so much as this one to the Northwest. So we are issuing the Invitation and telling the story so that people will come out here and see us." Mr. Stone closed with a - graceful tribute to Mount Hood. T. W. B. London spoke briefly, and said there is no cause for jealousy be tween the three cities represented. Ta coma, he said, was known as the chief grain port of Puget Sound, as well as for its lumber, while -Seattle, the Queen City, held the Alaska trade. Portland, he said, had the trade of the Columbia basin, and was, consequently, the chief grain port on the Pacific. I. A. N'adeau. director-general of the exposition, said: "The exposition belongs to the people of the Paciflo Coast. It represents the loyalty and spirit, of the great West The beat thing about it is that It will be complete and ready In every detail on June 1. Buildings not almost fin ished are well along. We ask the co operation of all the people of the Northwest to make this fair a great success. We are thankful to be with you tonight, and extend a cordial in vitation to be present in Seattle next Bummer." W. H. Wehrung- apoke briefly of the spirit of co-operation that has been manifested n this state, and W. C. . - '.v." I .- i . " V- ' I E ,,-T.,-Tr-Vl , - --J Wheeler, of Tacoma, was Introduced. He said in part: "I never come to Portland but I feel glad I came. Ta coma is specially interested in the ex position, and we are raising a special fund in our city to help out the work. I hope when you come north to the fair you will stop off and visit Ta coma you'll like it." Professor E. S. Meany, of the Uni versity of Washington, made an enter taining speech. He said that Wash ington spends more money for educa tion than any other state, but that, de spite this fact, Oregon has the least il literacy. T. S. LIppy, of Seattle, waa the last speaker, and asked for co-op?ration in the common work of promoting the best interests of the entire Pacific Northwest. Following the speeches, the guests were shown about the club by the' members,- and an informal reception was held that lasted until the time set for the special train leaving the Union sta tion, 10:30 o'clock. Old friendships were renewed, new ones formed, and when the Seattle and Tacoma visitors left for their cars they had a warmer spot than ever before in their hearts for Portland and her people.

THOMPSON WILLS MAKES HINTS Says He Has Information to Disclose About Police. FOLLOWS UP HIS RAID Will Appear Before Liquor License Committee and Demand Revoca tion of Licenses gt Saloons Upon Which He Descended. When the liquor licence committee of the City Council meets tomorrow after noon Councilman Wills promises to show up the present police administration and substantiate what he has already 6am about conditions being exceedingly bad In the North End district. He eays he will disclose information that will have a tendency to make Mayor Lane and his political lieutenants sit up. The action will tie on the charges preferred by Mr. Wills aealnst Ed Blazier and Max Zetos, saloonkeepers In the district named. -In the Blazier establishment two weeks ago the Councilman from Sellwoodt found a large, full-fledged poker game' In prog ress and caused a raid to be made. In which 35 players were arrested and later fined, and In Zetos" place he discovered a bartender celling liquor to an Intoxi cated man. The raid was personally conducted by Councilman Wills, who called In the po lice and remained with them until the entire outfit was lodged at headquarters, after eeveral patrol wagons full of hu manity had been carted from Blazier's Faloon and deposited at the station house. It was the biggest surprise the police had experienced for many a month, and they at once began to say it would be difficult for Mr. Wills to prove the men were really Rambling. The Councilman remarked, "however, he would prove It without a bit of trouble, and when the matter was called In Municipal Court the next day the defendants all entered pleas of guilty and were fined. The fact that a Councilman discovered and directed a raid on a full-fledged poker game caused much comment, and It was hinted the police were not as watchful as they should be. However, Chief Gritxmacher. In explanation of the affair, said Detective Sergeant Kay had been planning a raid on Blazier's saloon for some time, and that he was about to act when Councilman Wills got In ahead. Referring to this statement, Mr. WrIlls said he was very sorry If he in terfered with the plans of the police, but he maintained he knew one thing there was gambling running in the open, without any apparent fear of molesta tion by the police. The raid on Blazier's saloon was the occasion for activity In the office of Mayor Lane also. The executive Imme diately Issued a statement that the po lice were handicapped In their operations by various tricks played by gamblers to thwart the officers of the law In the effort to detect gaming, and that the orders to the police were to allow no gambling whatever, but to arrest all offenders. In view of the facts that have devel oped since the raid by Councilman Wills, it Is believed in official circles that the session of the liquor license committee, scheduled for ! o'clock tomorrow after noon, wll be highly Interesting. The sa- loonkeepers mentioned have been sum moned to appear at that time to show cause why their license should not be revoked. DROWNING IN MILLP0ND BRAINS Rule the World. Grape-Nuts made of wheat and barley is a true food for brain-workers. "There's a Reason" Joe Zazaro, Italian, Slips Off Logs and Goes Under. y Joe Zazaro, an Italian mill laborer, was drowned in the millpond of a saw mill at Mlddleton, Washington County, yesterday afternoon. The mill is oper ated by J. .H. Johnson, successor to the Mlddleton Lumber Company. The Ital ian was crossing on 'logs when he slipped and fell into the water. He was employed as a yardman, and his duties did not require that he go on the logs, It is said, but he did so In or der to take a short cut. Fellow-workmen saw Zazaro fall into the pond, and Immediately went to his assistance. Before they could reach him he had gone down for the last time, and, although men dived for the body, the water was so cold they could not reach him. The body was re- i covered about an hour after the acci dent, which occurred at 3 P. M. Zazaro was a single man, 28 years old, and had worked at the mill only a short time. He had lived in the neigh borhood for the past five years, and, so far as known, had no relatives in this country. if 11 That look as well, fit as well and wear as well as the highest-priced clothes in town, are only at this store of GOOD VALUES.

"Two Banners," a comedy dealing with complications in the love affair of a Chicago heiress, daughter of a multimil lionaire porkpacker, and the scion of a noble German house was given by the German Players Friday night, at the Lyric, and was well received. The PIANO LOGIC If we advertise to sell you a piano today for $223.00 that was $446.00 yesterday, would you not think the man who paid $446.00 was wronged? We have no reason for offering a $400 piano for $200. Values do not fluctuate in this way. Our $400 values are worth $400. Our $200 piano is wor.th $200. Whjy shojild your neighbor pay twice as much as you pay for the same ar ticle T Visit our store every piano marked in plain figures. Every figure is right. Every piano worth what the figures say. It is worth something to know the value is right. It is no mistake to buy where you get "An Honest Piano at an Honest Price." ShermanIay'&'G). Opposite Po toff ice THE HOME OF RELIABLE PIANOS" Portland, Seattle, Tacoma, Everett, Spokane, Bellingham, San Francisco, Oakland, Los Angeles verbal encounters of the matter-of-fact porkpacker with the father of his aristo cratic son-in-law afforded frequent op portunities for humor. Though the play was written in German by German authors for the German stage it prac-. tieally culminates In a glorification of American ideals, and testifies to the re spect and regard manifested in some German circles toward this country. The eight characters in tha cast were all well portrayed. Margeurtte Ortman was pleasing as the Chicago heiress. The rolo of Rudolf, the aristocratic suitor. was-prayed with dignity by Martin Dudel. Oscar Halm brought out all the humorous possibilities in the character of Thomas Forster, the porkpacker. The Baron Maximilian von Wettlngen, of Frana Moor, added much to the success of the performance. CHICAGO CLOTHING CO - " xv" ty Ask ,r NT 7 s f f l air n. i kj Nil -rt Mil S Ail wtfr7.J Hit J.
