XAPL.BP. April 3. 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 Roosevelt quarters on the Admiral
s-lll be a perfect bower, for everybody of
note Is sending flowers as the only way
in which fittingly to welcome the great
American.
Many at Welcome.
Present at the embarkation will be rep
resentatives of the Board of Aldermen to
welcome Mr. Roosevelt in behalf of the
ity. The American Ambassador, attended
by several members of the embassy, will

deemed that these precautions preclude

Motorboats and automobiles have been

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

cuy. as near as the same can be done,
should be ascertained. The citv nrob&blv

CRAZY SNAKE MOVES CAMP
Creek Leader or Vpri&ing Is Being
Pressed to Hiding Place by Klght
Detachments or Soldiers
and Posse.
OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla., April 3.
That Crazy Snake, the Creek leader,
has changed his hidins place and in
ao doing successfully eluded the state
troops was made practilly certain to
day, when a posse of officers from
Henryetta accosted a . party of the
leader's scouts near Hoffman.
The Indians' were ordered to sur
render, but fled. The officers fired,
and about a dozen shots were ex
changed, the Indians escaping; unin
jured into the hills to the west.
They are believed to have returned
to Crazy Snake's new retreat. Officers
who have been in the field with tha
militia for several days returned to
Henryetta today. A new posse prob
ably will go out tomorrow.
Eight detachments of militia are
working toward the leader's camping
grounds.
ALLEGED 'CON' MAN CAUGHT
T. B. Holman Taken Into Custody
and Police Feel Safer.
W. B. 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. By reputation Hol

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.
You should read this booklet before
you try anything. It treats the sub
ject exhaustively. Write to the DE
