BELLIXGHAM. Wash.. Aug-. 14. (Special.) The Olympic Ransre, which the Mazamas have never before essayed, probably will be the next objective point of the successful mountain climbing organization. President M. W. Gorman, a club member, held a con ference with C. W. Humes, of Port Angeles, who has been touring the country about that range, and most favorable reports of the wonders of the region were given by Mr. Humes. There has been some discussion re garding a proposition to climb the glacial mountain near Lake Chelan. The majority, apparently. Is in favor of on of the Olympic peaks. New officers will be elected in October, and the final decision as to which mountain will be climbed will not be given until next January. Break Camp on Monday. Some of the Mazamas -will leave the permanent camp tomorrow, but camp will not be broken until aionacy. in unbroken round of pleasure which the party has been enjoying was given added zest yesterday by a novel field meet at Camp Mazama. recently fixed about a mile and a half from Camp Gorman. Athletic sports of all kinds were indulged in, the woman members participating. A stone monument also was erected, each one of the Mazamas placing a huge rock in the pile. In making the official ascent Wednes day. William Q. Hardesty. of Portland, placed stakes with bits of red flannel attached at various points along the route, so that until they are covered with snow the route of the parry to the summit can be easily traced. Mr. Hanlfstv also carried an aneroid barometer, which gave the elevation at the summit as 11. 400 feet, liaraesiy. however, says the aneroid's tempera ture variations render it unreliable, the government surveys having fixed the height of the mountain at 10.728 feet. Those who reached the summit with the main party last Wednesday were given Mazama badges with the word "Summit" printed across them near the top. and bearing the words "Mount Baker." and a picture of tha official emblem, the mountain goat. . "... Fun Around Campfire. The evenings spend around the camp Urn are pronounced by many of the party to be one of the most enjoyable features. Bongs, stories and impromptu entertainments are given. Thursday night, following the successful climb of Wednesday, included a special cele bration. Judge A. J. Craven, of this city; President M. W. Gorman, of Port land, and one of the burros used in parking impedimenta to the camp were initiated Into the "Association of Owls." The etald climbers were pulled into the ring on the donkey's back and put through a series of evolutions that seriously Interfered with their slumbers the remainder of the night. W. V. Harden, of Boston, Mass., who climbed the Kuropean Alps and many peaks of Canada, is authority for the statement that the scenery enjoyed on this climb is unsurpassed by any In the world. From here he Is going to the Olympics and then to Mount Shasta. HORSEMEN'S NEW REFUGE Will Have Races at Coeur dAlene With Betting Wide Opeu. CCp;l"R D'ALKXB, Idaho. Aug. 14. (Special.)

IS TIRED OF "BOSSISM" President of Tacoma School Declares There Is Too Much Intrigue and Incompetency in Faculty. TACOMA, Wash., Aug. 14. (Special.) Declaring that he is through with tho "bossism" of .Rev. M. A. Matthews, of Seattle, and that Dr. D. D. McKay, a member of the faculty, is Incompetent and has Intrigued to the disadvantage of the institution. Dr. B. H. Kroeze, president of Whitworth College, has tendered his resignation to the board of trustees, and insists that it be accepted. Twice before he resigned, but the board poured oil on the troubled waters. This time the president declares he is in earnest. President Kroess gives the following three reasons for his action: "The first reason is on account of Dr. McKay, who has Intrigued and is Incompetent, and the welfare of the school calls for a man of different stamp. "My second reason Is on account of 'bossism,' or one man running the board. I refer to Rev. M. A. Matthews, of Seattle. "My third reason is on account of nepotism. Two members of the faculty are sisters of members of the board re siding In Seattle, and I maintain that good oommon sense and good law de mands that no blood relation of any member of tho board of trustees should be on tha faculty. ALBANY FIRM IS TENTING City So Crowded No Other Room Can Be Secured. ALBANY. Or., Aug. 14. (Special.) So crowded is Albany's business section that the Blaln Clothing Company, whjch was burned out in the fire in the First Na tional Bank building last week, will do business temporarily in a tent.

It is not large enough, however, to accommodate the company, and one of the big tents be longing to Arnold, the Portland show man who tours the Willamette Valley, has been secured and is being erected in the rear of the building for use aa a Ba tearoom. It has been probably half a century since a permanent business house was forced to do business1 In a tent In Albany, and the present prosperity which keeps all business buildings crowded recalls the situation in new towns or mining camps in pioneer days.

Three Maianaa above the clonda on the very top of the mountain loo a Ins over Puget Sound. will be an average one throughout this ruirt of the Willamette Valley. Weather conditions the past Winter were considered very unfavorable for prunes, as well as other fruits, and even a few weeks ago grave fears were en tertained for the prune crop. But prac tically all of the orchards In this part of the state will have a full yield. This means that at least 125 cars of prunes will be shipped this year from Albany, which is the greatest prune exporting center of the state. The fruit this year Is of a good quality. too. This Is largely due to the fact that more care was taken of prune orchards this year than ever before, the amount of spraying and cultivation breaking all records. There was an increaad acre age of bearing prunes In Linn and Ben ton counties this year and this will make a slight increase in the crop. Present market conditions are also fa vorable for prunes and from all view points prunegrowers in this part of the state are satisfied.

ENGINES WORK OVERTIME Passenger Trains Crowded Daily, Conductors Having Difficulty in Making Their Way Through the Many Coaches. PE.VDLBTOJT, Or., Aug. 14. (Special.) With motive power insufficient to handle the present enormous freight and passenger traffic, and with the wheat shipping season Just opening up, the O. R. & N. Co. Is facing one of the most difficult problems in its history. Not only is every available locomotive being kept in continuous service but every pas senger coach is also being called into service and there are a half dozen calls for every empty coach that can be found. - Fourteen westbound trains passed through Pendleton Thursday and there would have been more but for the lack of motive power. The local yards are filled with loaded cars waiting to be shipped out. Some of them have been here nearly a week and most of them are scheduled to go East. Every freight train carries every car that the big locomo tive can draw and many of them require two engines. Every passenger train is literally, "loaded to the guards,", with seats for all out of the question and good standing room at a premium. The con ductors say thoy are compelled to fairly fight their way through their trains. Temporary relief will be afforded in a few davs by the arrival of five additional locomotives from the Southern Pacifio shops at Sparks, Nev... while two are on their way here from the Oregon Short Line. This will make it possible to re lieve the present congestion here, at Huntington. Umatilla and other points along the line, but whether tt will make possible the successful handling of the grain crop and prevent a oar shortage, ia another question. Then on top of the grain shipment question and the preaent heavy passenger traffic, said to be the heaviest in the history of the road, the Fall colonist rates go Into effect next month, and It is aald that two additional trains each way daily will be required to handle the colonists. There are three trains each way dally, at present, the third one having been put on but a few days ago.
