The society Is working- hard to make Port land the rose city of the world, and the success of the coming show will do much toward accomplishing this end. According to present Indications, this will be the banner effort of the society. Preparations were begun early, and ar rangements are now almost completed. "We don't want the show until we can display the finest exhibition roses," said one of the executive board, at a meeting held yesterday afternoon in the parlors of First Presbyterian church. "One year, the best roses we ever had for an Oregon exhibition, were shown on the third of July." It appears that the date when the show will be held is very Indefinite, and that the only thing left for the members to do is to have every thing Kiilv. met that hn thn rniM arm in staying, but even If it were other-I at thai heat, thara mar ha no dalav In wiaa we wouia prerer to stay here and holding the exhibition.

Hunter Wells la in receipt of another letter from James S. Gale, of Seoul. Korea, dated April 18, telling of the war and other matters. Mr. Dale Is the author of the Korean-English dic tionary, of "Korean Sketches" and the popular book "The Vanguard," a story of Korea, already in its second edition. Dr. Gale writes aa follows concerning the war: We know absolutely nothing of the war. The little Japs bide everything. No man's left hand knows what his right nana aoes tnese days. All the newspa per correspondents who sailed forth so Jubilantly have been turned down and will never run any danger of dumdum bullets. It is a great struggle, and no FRXZIER LOSES VALUABLE LAUNCH When "Jim" Wright put 00 sheep aboard the ateamer Regulator at The Dallea and started them for Portland, ba probably felt a foreboding that trouble would occur when the drove came to be transferred on the hoof from the dock to the stock yards. But he consoled himself with the thought that hla herders were equal to the occasion. And so they were. A stout boy appeared on Alder street at about o'clock Friday evening, dragging a small, discreditable looking masculine goat by means of a rope tied about Its neck. Half a block behind him. huddled together and moving Tor ward, backward and sldewlse by turns, were Wright's '900 sheep, in charge of three herders and a dog. It was the first time the sheep had visited the city, and to them the sights were strange and appalling. So, also, was the goat. As a leader, he did not inspire their confidence. He was old and decrepit His whiskers were sparse, and a portion of his left ear was missing. His idea of leadership was to balk along on his rear shanks and make the boy work hard. Evidently, he was a low-born, cheap goat from Tin Can alley, that had suddenly been taken up and pressed Into service without any regard for fitness or civil service regulations. There Is a queer element In the sheep character that cropped out the moment Wright's 900 started up Alder street. They fear a strange trail, and refused to cross any street that Intersected Alder, on which they were traveling. When they reached Second street, the tfhtlre drove stopped and massed to gether so compactly that those in the center were forced upward until they stood on their hind feet The drovers and the dog continued to push them from the rear and both aides, but those in front merely circled to the left or right as fast aa the bunch "moved for ward, ao that no headway waa made.

A wonderful story Is related by the master of the schooner William Renton, which has arrived at the Hume mill to load lumber for California, says the As- torlan. The narrative comes as straight For some days prior to the fire Mr. Frazler had been negotiating the sale of the launch.

They were a long time getting through the .business district and It was particularly hard to force the sheep across street-car tracks. By the time, they reached Eighth street, they had conquered their fears of the Intersections, and trotted along contentedly, all landing aafely at the stock yards.

PORTLAND ACTORS MAY FORM UNION It is altogether probable that Portland will soon have an actors' union. Sam J.
