Never before have the people of Naples chown such an In terest in the arrival of a foreigner as in the expected visit of ex-President Ttooeevelt. Unfortunately, however, the brevity of Mr. Roosevelt's stay here will compel the abandonment of many of the nrranpements that have been made for him entertainment. He probably will be able to remain in- Naples but a few hours, for the latest reports say that the Hambur will not ream here until Monday afternoon or evening. King "Emmanuel has instructed the Tuke of Aosta to welcome the ex-Presl-ilent to Italy in hl name and to express' to Mr. Roosevelt the King's wish to make his personal acquaintance, which he would have taken steps to do had not Mr. Roosevelt traveled In the strictest Incognito. Greetings From Kaiser. The Oerman Emperor, besides sending treetlngs. has ordered the German Con- ul-General here to ' fill Mr. Roosevelt's abln on the steamship Admiral with carnations, red, white and black, the German colors, as a token of the Em peror's homage.

The Prefect of Naples has given orders that a special detachment of rjlcke.i car bineers be on duty at the dock to protect Mr. Roosevelt, not only from any pos sible assault, but also from the impor tunities of the populace. Both the Ham burg and the steamer Admiral will be , urrotinded by police boats, and it is deemed that these precautions preclude ny untoward occurrences. Motorboats and automobiles have been put at the disposal of Mr. Roosevelt for excursions by sea and by land. CUMBERLAND !S VICTOR lMMSSEK SIPRKSI E COl'lJT IKIIDF.S ClIVKCH CASE.

J. vaiternn yesterday afternoon, "and I want it understood that the machine doesn't belong to me. I sold the car over a year ago to the Columbia Trust Company, and they have kept the li cense tag. They disposed of the machine I sold them and purchased another and kept the license number of my machine and tacked it on the car they are now using. "Tiie present owners have promised sev eral times to have the number changed. but never have done it, and have caused me no end of trouble. Twice before I was summoned to appear in police court on account of exceeding the speed limit, and had to make an explanation about the transfer. I have had questions coming in ail day about the accident Friday afternoon, when A. F. Bailey, of White Salmon. Wash., was run down at Third and Everett streets and badlv Intiirert People saw the number, which Is "Ore 1235." and I was immediately blamed for the accident. The Columbia Trust Com pany is the violator, and not I. It seems to me that they are criminally liable on account of using a license number that belongs to another car." PORTLAND HAS 255,000 NEW DIIIECTORY COMMENTS ON WONDERFUL GROWTH. During Past Year and Half Subur ban East Side Districts Have In creased 85 to 150 Per Cent. According to the new citv directorv just Issued by R. L. Polk & Co.. Port land has a population of 255,000. The publishers announce that during thj past year and a half, or since the last directory was published, the suburban districts on the East Side of the river have Increased in population from 25 to 150 per. cent. . In the introduction to the new di rectory reference is made to tho fact that in 1879 the city's population was approximately 20,000. Ten years pre vious, 1889, the population was less than 9000. Following is the intro duction in the directory Just Issued: Population 853,000. "As a matter of 1,'uhlic it tart It ! vfrv desirable that the exact population of the cuy. as near as the same can be done, should be ascertained. The citv nrob&blv contains 20.000 inhabitants, and the number is rapidly Increasing." r- he above paragraph is copied verbatim from the Portland City Directory of 1879. published exactly 30 years ao. and is tiart of a message from the Mayor, w. S New bury, to the Common Oouncil. This was probably a very fair estimate of the popu lation, as the next year's Federal census gave 20,9:11 as the city's poplation. Ten years previously, 1S69. the population had been 8928. and the growth, the population having more than doubled In tl'at time, was Justly considered rapid, and Indicative of great prosperity In the city. Ten years later, that Is. In 18R9. we And a still greater proportionate Increase and a new era in the building improvements and commerce of the city. The population claimed at this date was about 70.00O. This was more than trebling the population In ten years.

Holman, 41 years old, of good appearance, whom the police say is one of the best known confidence men on the Pacific Coast, was arrested late last night by Detectives Coleman and Price at Sixth and Washington streets on he charge of vagrancy. So far as known, Holman had not been guilty of working any games in Portland, but owing to his reputation, the police of ficers said they would feel easier If he were in .iaiL Holman did not deny his identity. He merely said he had not intended to operate in Portland and wanted an opportunity to get out of town. The police said they would let him go Monday morning, but until that time would prefer to hold him in jail un der the charge of having no visible means of support.

The lands are nearly all in a high state of cultivation and are especially suited for suburban homes, and are now staked out in sizes of acres and up wards, and will be offered at excep tionally low prices to homebullders. One of the best-paved roads in Mult nomah County covers the entire dis tance, which is made with an automo bile in 25 minutes. This particular lo cality is already favored with an es tablished canning and jelly factory, owned by Mr. Dickenson, from which the well-known "Dickenson jellies" are produced. The owners are very Jubi lant over the purchase of this table land, and with the improvements already es tablished in the neighborhood, the beau tiful drives and the growing conven ience of carllnes. make them sanguine In the belief that they are offering In ducements to the prospective fruit grower, gardener or i oultryman. the like of which ha.s no comparison in price or quality within the same dis tance, viz.. 6H miles of the city's post office. The property is the high table land known as Alto Park, and, although now to be offered at low acreage prices, will soon become most desirable sub urban lot property.

Ktlcknev defeated HAIR REMOVERS ARE DANGEROUS Dr. Wertenbaker Says: "Don't Ue Poisonous Depilatories." In treating superfluous hair it is of vital importance that the agent to be employed should be absolutely non poisonous, antiseptic and germicidal. because if it is not so with frequent use It will produce eczema or blood poisoning. The trouble with the ma jority of ladles is that they don't do a little thinking for themselves. When an assertion is made by some unre liable concern they take it as gospel truth. xney never consider the re liability, neither ao they question or ask for any substantiating proof that a preparation is non-poisonous. They seem to think that' the bare word of the manufacturer is sufficient. To the contrary, ladles should be most par ticular in choosing a hair remover and learn first what reputable authorities know about it. Pr. Wertenbaker. the prominent phy sician, says: "For several years I said to my patients, Don t use poisonous depilatories, because they are bound to do harm. I have found De Miracle to be absolutely non-poisonous, antiseptic and germicidal; therefore, on account of these qualities, it is distinctly bene ficial to the skin , and under no cir cumstances can it produce eczema or blood poisoning. I have used this prep aration in m y practice for a number of years, and find that the principle of its chemical and physiological action is correct. . I consider . U the only satis factory method for the removal of superfluous hair." " Better take a doctor's advice. Don't be deceived with the fake free treat ments which are advertised so exten sively in the newspapers. Remember, after yen have used worthless concoc tions it will be harder to remove the hair: therefore. Isn't it better to In vestigate all hair removers first, before you try any of them? We will send you absolutely free, in plain sealed envelope, a S4 page book let containing full Information con cerning this remarkable treatment, as well as testimonials of prominent phy sicians, surgeons, dermatologists, medi cal journals and principal magazines.
