did, he had a hilarious time. Wilson
came into police court to plead guilty
to speeding, but his conscience was
badly troubled by a warning Judge
Rossman had given him a month ago
during a hearing in which Wilson was
charged with appropriating an auto
mobile to his own use. At that time
leniency was extended by the court
with the understanding that Wilson was
to stay out of the city for six months.
I was just following Judge Ross-
man s advice. V llson said. "He told
me If I wanted to run a car I should
wait until I could get one myself. I
just came to town to purchase the ma
chine and was arrested as I was driv
ing back out of the city. It is the only
time I've been in Portland in a month."
Judge Ieich handed him a $5 fine.
and Wilson expressed his thankfulness
that Judge Rossman was on a vacation.
Other alleged speeders who were
fined yesterday were as follows: E. H.

Convention August 14-16 Will Close
With Monster Parade and
Carnival at Night.
On the eve of the second annual con
vention or the Oregon State Elks' as
sociation at Klamath Falls, Portland
Elkdom is making elaborate plans to
be on hand. Automobiles and a spe
cial train will furnish transportation.
ThTs is true of almost every city in
the state where an Elks lodge is
established and in addition to the
Oregon herd, stragglers from Washing
ton, Idaho, California and Nevada are
planning to pasture on the fertile
Klamath meadows.
The convention will open August 14, I
to continue to August 16. the day
that will be marked by a monster pa
rade and a carnival night, the like of
which has never been seen in southern
Oregon.
To provide accommodations for the
thousands of visitors, the homes of
Klamath Falls will be thrown open.
Weeks ago all reservations at the
White Pelican hotel, the official head
quarters of the convention, and the
other hotels were taken and when it
became apparent that congestion was
threatening, W. O. Smith, chairman of
the committee on rooms. obtained
pledges from Klamath Falls home
owners.
The special train under the direc
tion of William J. McGinn leaves Port
land Wednesday, August 13. It will
have aboard the Portland and Astoria
delegations and as it passes along the
west coast of the state, the talem,
Oregon City, Eugene. Marshfield, Rose
burg and Medford delegates will take
up their reservations. A special rate of
$35 for the round trip has been given
bv the federal railroad administration
and this will include sleeper accom
modations not only en route but while
the train is sidetracked at Klamath
Falls.
In addition to the business sessions
of the association, there will be many
social features for the Elks and their
families. These include an excursion
to Crater lake, the Upper Klamath
lake, the Klamath lava beds and the
monster barbecue on the Upper
Klnmath lake.
Several cities are fighting for the
1920 convention honors and in addition
there will be active scrimmages on the
floor for the various official positions
to be filled.

C. K. MILLER BOOKED FOR MAN
SLAUGHTER BY POLICE.
Witnesses to Death of Teamster Held

C. K. Miller, driver of the automobile

Goldsmith and Albina avenues at 3

killing Fred Goodfellow, driver of the
ruck, was released yesterday on S2000
Dan, having been re-booked by the po

fellow.
A fourth man, said to have been an

occurrea, was taken Into custody yes
terday morning and is being held as a
witness in the case.
Two other occupants of the car. Wal

Mrs. Taylor, although more than 85
years of age, keenly enjoyed the trip.
which took her to Prescott, Walla Walla
county, Washington, nearly 300 miles
from home, and in a side trip over the
trail between the .Deschutes and John
Dav rivers was able to recognize two
of the camping sites her party used 67
years ago.
One of these was at the
old ford on the Deschutes river, and
the other was on the John Day.
"Although I had not been over the
route since I came to Oregon so long
ago, said Mrs. layior yesterday, l
recognized those places at once, and
if I could have been in The Dalles in
daytime I believe, in spite of changes.
I could have picked out our camping
Ite at that place."
Mrs. Taylor and her grandson were
accompanied by Miss Harriet Hush of
Eugene, who visited with her parents
near Helix during the trip. They left
Portland a week ago yesterday, and in
the drive to the Frank Dooly farm, near
Prescott, found it necessary to pass
two nights in the open. Despite her
age, Mrs. Taylor made the best of all
situations and was prepared for ail
emergencies.
On the original trip over the Oregon
trail Mrs. Taylor, because of heavy
grades arid weary oxen, found it neces
sary to walk much of the way from
Laramie to Oregon. Her experience
with the pr.esent-day vehicle was vastly
different, although she confesses that
she does not like the sensation of glid- j
ing easily down the steep hillsides,
around sharp curves and up on the
other side of the canyon. Uncon
sciously she found herself 'clinging to
the side of the auto "like grim death,"
as she explained it.
Road conditlons in the Washington
wheat belt are anything but pleasant,
she says, owing to the dust, and the
unusual heat detracted somewhat from
the enjoyment of her visit. "But it was
an experience of which she had dreamed
in her declining years, though enter
tained little hope of realizing.

Definite Diana for the entertainment
of the officers and men of the Pacific

Ben Selling, chairman of the recep

less the money was raised the invita

called and the fleet would pass by 1'oit
land, calling on- northern ports.
"We have received numerous sub

are many who are holding back and
have not turned in a subscription.
Yv'hen it is remembered that the en
trance of the large vessels attached to
the Pacific fleet into the Columbia
river will in itself be proof to the world
of the capabilities of our harbor, no
one should hesitate in making a sub
stantial contribution."

PENDLETON, Or., Aug. 2. (Special.)
Stockmen of the south end of Uma
tilla county, who, for the past three
years, have driven their cattle out for
the winter, will remain in the hills this
season ,it is- said here. Ever since the
heavy winter three years ago this sec
tion of the country, iike most others,
has been short of hay. The stockmen
were forced to ship their stock out and
buy hay at high prices.
After trying this fr three seasons,
the stockwien have determined to cut
down their herds to the size of their
hay stacks and stick it out. figuring
that they stand to lose either way till
they can accumulate syfficient hay to
carry them over and. they might as
well stay at home.
More cattle than ever before at this
season of the year have been sold from
the Pilot Rock eectiun and more will
go out.'
