President The rites which present the Louisiana Purchase Exposition to the world woro performed in tho Liberal Arts Handing says a St. Louis dispatch of Thursday's date, with all tho dignity and splendor befitting such an occasion. A parade of 11,000 soldiers down Lindell boulevard to the World's Fair grounds formed a' brilliant prelude to tho ceremony of dedication. After this prelude over 60, 000 peoplo crowded into tho big auditor ium, where, in the prcsenco of official representatives of all tho civilized na tions of the world, tho words of dedica tion were spoken by the President of tho United States. As the last syllable fell from the speaker's lips and the dedica tion of one of tho world's greatest fairs was completed, 00,000 voices arose in a prodigious bass noto of applause. The weather was tho only disappointing fac tor of tho day. The troops mobilized early in a sprinklingof rain and marched in a tcmieraturc close to the freezing Mint. For a few moments snow fell, hut only enough of it to give visible evidence of the temperature. In the grandstand men in their heavy over coats shivered, while women garlnxl in elegant, but inadequate laces, suffered much more severely. It was all taken good-naturedly however.' FORKIO.V SECTION'S DEDICATED. St. Lotus, May 1. "International Day," the second of the trio dedicated to the Louisiana Exposition, broke fair with promise of better weather than that of yesterday. The day was devoted to greetings to the responses by repre se ntatives of the foreign nations, which will have buildings at the fair, the pro ceedings constituting the dedication of the foreign section?. The history of the Ixiuisiana Purchase under its three sovereignties Spain, France and the Uniied States was sug gested in the appearance of three speakers, Senor Ojeda, the Spanish Minister; M .J. Jusserand, tho French Ambassador, and, D. R. Francis, president of the exposition. The Liberal Arts building, where tho exer cises took place, still wore its dress of yesterday the mingled colors of Spain, France and the United States, and in the speech 8 the trinity of interests in the exposition was noted. Italy Sends War-ships to Solonlca, Cox8TAxnxorLK, May 1. A state of siege has been proclaimed at Salonica and extraordinary military precautions have been ordered everywhere in the empire, as it is anticipated that outrages similar to those perpetrated there yes terday may be attempted at Constanti nople and elsewhere. The action of the Macedonian committee in directing at tacks on foreign property was evidently with the view of provokiug the inter vention of the powers. It is feared the outrages may lead to massacres of Mace donians and Bulgarians by Mussulmans, who are in a state of dangerous excite ment. Baseball Team Practice. The Albany baseball boys are hard at work and expect to be in fine shape for their opening games in this city on May 9 and 10. The Schedule has been changed and the games intended to be played at Salem May 2d and 3d, have been cancelled on account of the grounds not being in condition. The Albany boys donned their new uniforms for the first time last evening and present a fine appearance. The suits are of dark blue with the letter A" in white on the left side of the shirt. The suits weie made by James Coon, the taylor, and are sub stantial. Jack Snyder and Fred Weath erford will probably do duty behind the bat. Dugger and McFarland have sev eral new fanglel curves that will puzzle the Leagues for a while any way, Darcy holds down first base, Whitney presides at second and Danforth will watch the other corner. Carter lee has the con tract to stop everything stopable in the infield, and Bilyeu, Rupert and Howell will make the grand stand plays in the suburbs of the diamond. Several others who have read about the game in a book are casting fond eyes at the sport they love so well and will be there with bells at the proper time. The "Home-spun" team is now ready for business and with several hundred dollars in the treasury will start out in a few day to show the other clubs how to play tho national game. Albany Herald.

How to mato and caro for tho turkey is a subject that will interest most per sons engaged in raising this variety of fowls. It has been tho experience of turkey raisers generally that tho turkey is a hard fowl to raise, that it requires n different treatment from the ordinary barn yard fowl. Tho Bronze is far and away tho most popular variety of turkeys yet intro duced. Their extreme hardiness, grand sizo and beautiful plumage make them favorites with both fanciers and market men. Tho females are fine egg pro ducers nd gentle mothers, rearing a large proportion of their young. The great demand and fine prices that tur keys have commanded for the past few month should encourage tho average farmer to breed moro and better tur keys. To those readers who may not fully understand how tp select, mate, and care for their breeders, I submit the following: Xo matter whether wo aro to breed for exhibition or for market, only tho strongest should be elected. All birds with crooked breastbones should be re jected. I know from exiK-'rience that such defect will reproduce itself to :i great extent in the progeny. All mat ings should be not akiu if we exect strong, vigorous poults. Under no con sideration should immature birds Ik.' used for breeding. If we arc to mate for exhibition, only the largest specimens procurable should be used. The male should lie of the largest type that can be had. He should be extra brilliant in general col or, tall and rangy, and sturdy in build ; very large in frame and bone ; head very large and wattles well developed ; breast very full, broad and deep; back well aahed, broad and strong ; body deep nd long. Wings should bo distinctly barred with white in all primary feath ers. Secondary leathers the satire for lower two-thirds then as we approach tho top of tho wing the color changes rapidly to a bronzy brown with but lit tle admixture of white. Tail black each feather well penciled with brown. nding in a strong black and bronze band, with a wide edging of white. Main tail coverts should be black, pen ciled with brown, ending in a strong black band and a wide edging of white. Lesser coverts, well penciled and ending in a wide, brilliant bronze band, edged with white, a narrow black band divid ing the bronze from white, giving the two colors a very distinct appearance. The female should be of the same good qualities, but less brilliant in gen eral color, and having the breast feath ers edged with white. Such a mating (if bred from the right kind of ancestors) is sure to produce the desired results. If wo are to breed solely for market purposes, grand color is not necessary, and birds lower in build arc just as de sirable. But they should be strong and vigorous and very compact in build. Breeding turkeys should not be al lowed to become fat. From now on they should be fed sparingly on whole oats and wheat, and an occasional feed f corn. Broken oyster stalls should be within their reach to insure good diges tion and sound-shelled eggs. The breeders should be kept perJectly free from lice. I am aware of the fact that many breeders give up turkey raising in dis gust, and attribute their failures to "bad luck." Eternal vigilance is the onlv way to success in any undertaking, and luck is a thing of the past. At least, I find it so in raising turkeys. Farm Poultry. Maris Ware Heard From. The latest thing in the Marie Ware commissioner case is that the young woman has been informed of the charges made in the columns of the Oregonian and the Telecram atrainst H. G. Mc- Kinley and her and that the young oman will return from San Francisco, where she has been visiting, and will make her accusers refute their state ments or sue them for $25,000 damages. BEN'DS word to guard. The Guard this morning received the following telegram from Miss Ware: "San Francisco, May 1. "I have just read tho notices in tho Oregonian Baying my disappearance was mysterious, etc, which is absolutely false. Will bo at my homo in Eugene on or before May 8, tho dato for tho ter mination of my visit here. "Mario L. Ware." When Mies Ware arrives home she will undoubtedly make it warm for her accusers.

This mortality throughout India now exceeds 30,000 a week. Stuart Robson, the actor, died April t), and was buried May 1 at Cohnsset, Massachusetts. The interment will take place in tho same cemetery in which Lawrence Barrett is buried. The Crescent Powder Works plant on Pinuy Creek, ten miles south of Holi daysburg, Pa., was wrecked by an ex plosion Thursday afternoon, and eight men aro reported as killed and three fatally injured.

The Xicu Fric Press of April 30, re ports two tights in the Balkans between Turkish troops and the insurgents as oc curring Tuesday. In one at Oznajand, the insurgents lost 51 killed and wound ed and the Turks 12. At Kourokop, the Turks surprised the enemy, inflicting a loss of -50, losing but one. Agent John Peterson, of the United States Express Office at Britt, Iowa, was found gagged and a gunny sack over his bead, by his son, ana f lu.ixu of the express company's money gone. Peterson claims there were two men who compelled him to open the safe. No clew to the robbers has been ob tained. A hurdle tijed Wednesday evening as Earl Kawson, a Sophomore in the Oregon Aricullural Colleje, vaulted it and he sat heavily on its leg. His body was penetrated to the depth of eight inches. The dressing of tho wound was completed at ouc o'clock this afternoon, but the chances for recovery are very slender. Rawron was a novice at hurd ling, this occasion being his Kcond at tempt. An unknown negro, aged about 17 years, was lynched by a mot) ot angry farmers near the village of Santa Fe, 111., Monday, for attempting to assanlt the 10 year old daughter of Farmer Davis, and this was followed by a veneral onflaugh upon a colony of negroes living in tents who were engaged in bridge conjunction work. The tents were burned am! many negroes were shot, hot to far as known none was killed Hundreds of sliots were exchanged, but no whites were hurt. At the invitation of Mr. Win. Zeigler, the National Geographical fociety will send a representative with the .Keicler Arctic Expedition, who will be the chief of the scientific staff and have entire charge of the scientific work of the ex pedition. The society has appointed Mr. William J. Peters, of the United States Geographical Survey, as its rep resentative. Mr. Peters is one of the moat experienced geographers and sci entists of the United States Geological Survey. In 1901 he made a trip with the dog sleds of oyer 1000 miles in Arc tic Alaska. Another Mcdford Enterprise. Medford's latest and one of its most laudable enterprises is rapidly receiving its finishing touches at the hands of Mr. C. E. Gaddis, who with his assistant, M. L Parfons, is busily engaged in setting up the machinery in his Creamery on A street preparatory to commencing opera tions on May 1. The building, erect-d for the especial use of this new industry and just completed, is a neat commodious frame structure, with large airy offices and receiving rooms on the main floor, and ample space in the basement to ac commodate tho vats, boiler, engine and other machinery necessary for the manufacture of first-class butter. Along with this machinery, which arrived last week, was received a large member of separators which are being distributed among the farmers as fast as practicable thus insuring a largo and steady patron age from the outset. Mr. Gaddis has been identified with the creamery business in Southern Ore gon for a number of years, being tho owner of tho Itoseburg creamery for which establishment ho has drawn a considcrabale supply of cream from the vicinity of Medford and other Jackson county points. The dairy products of the Rogue River valley havo recently, lowcver, been rapidly increasing and as a result tho Mcdford creamery, erected at a cost of about $3000, has Income n necessity at tho samo ttmo nffording our dairy-men a steady and convenient market. Tho now creamery will bo ono of tho best in tho state and doubtless before many weeks havo passed its full capaci ty, of 1500 pounds will bo pushed to tho limit daily. Mr. Parsons, tho butter maker, is an old and experienced cream ery man and n high class product may bo expected. Medford Success. A cheap horse for salo or trade, for a milk cow or young cattle.
