RMlng- horseback from Moscow, Ida- ho, to Portland, a distance of (40 miles, was tha unique manner In which John E. Boys, one of the official reporters of local circuit court, spent his vaca tion. He was accompanied by Mrs. Boys. They were in the saddle 11 days, and for three days after they reached home, both dreamed of riding- the trail. Mrs. Boys dreamed that her horse was care fully picking- Its way along the top of a picket fence, and Mr. Boys in a Ytelon saw himself riding to call upon a friend, and then pick ud his animal and carry it under his arm when he entered the trouse, so the horse would not walk on the carpet. Boys and his wife were the first people to cross the Cascade mountains on horseback this year. They were told on the Barlow trail that only one wagon had crossed the pass ahead of them. Boys was called to "Moscow to report the land fraud trials, and when they were ended he bought horses for him self and Mrs. Boys and started to ride home. Reaching Portland, Mr. Boys is more enthusiastic than ever over the beauties of western Oregon, He said: "In all the places I hare seen there is nothing that will compare with the scenery about Portland. Along the Co-' lumbia and Snake rivers there is a terlla countrv. covered hv rocks some of which are forbidding in their grand eur, but for genuine beauty as well as fertility none of them can compare with the Willamette valley, particular ly in this county." The trail was lost many times and the horses were slid down steep deciiv ltles covered with loose rocks. At other times the dim trail led away and lost Itself in the sage brush desert, leaving the riders with no clue to their whereabouts, except to retrace their own trail. Boys said a limitless sea of age Druan is even more appalling man the ocean. Dim trails frequently lost Impressed upon Boys the need of sign posts with directions at crossroads, which he says are sadly lacking In the remote part of eastern Oregon and In Washington. He objects strenuously to the practice of fencing and gating travelled roads, which he said sometimes necessitated his dismounting at every quarter-aeo-tlon and opening a gate. The longest ride made In one day was 65 miles. The slowest progress was over a rocky trail in eastern Washing ton, where Ave hours were occupied In traveling four miles. ' (Joamal IpecUl Berries.) Berlin, July (.Thirteen prominent eltlteas who1 constituted the volunteer fire brigade of Slebenlehn, In Saxony, are In Jail awaiting trial for the sys tematic destruction of the town by fire. , Thev nlead In defense that their Dur- gose was to Improve the appearance of lebenlehn by getting It rebuilt in better etyle at the expense! of the Insurance companies. One fireman has confessed that a definite plan for destroying the whole place had the formal sanction of the town council. Then aealoua dlscioles of municipal splendor net only wofld atart fires, but would see to It that none of them was ever extinguished. Individual members wnuM claim the usual Dremlums from the town treasury for -early arrival at the scene of the conflagration, but there waa a. e-enaral understanding that the extinguishing of the flames was to be merely make-believe. Anybody who really tried to save burning buildings would be set upon by his comrades and beaten until ne aesistea. In order to Insure the fires "spread Inc." the volunteers would carry burn Ing beams Into adjoining buildings, and houses, sheds and barns which failed to take fire would be hacked to pieces. Fire brigades from neighboring villages which hurried to Slebenlehn to assist the local heroes were either deprived of water or had their nose cut into anort lengths. Fires in Siebelehn, moreover, were always made occasions for festivi ties. JAPS KEfT AWAY (Continued from Page One.) PIP i sBb asi .

Merrlam came to Portland from The Dalles.

With flaga flying and the regimental band, playing: quicksteps, members of the Oregon National Guard left this morning for various points on the coast to engage In the coast defense maneu vers planned ior ineir summer s encampment Company B waa the first to leave on the trip. The members left for Fort Columbia at 8 o'clock this morning. The soldiers will serve with the regu lars at that point in the warfare that is to follow for the next 10 days. Com pany M of the Third regiment also went to Fort Columbia, leaving Port land at 11:30 o'clock. Companies A and C of the First sepa- 4 ..; r - calf at Oakland. California, and Presi dent Roosevelt at Oyster Bay, author ised the verification of the ract that the battleship squadron will go to the Pa cific. To those informed on the plans of the department the official verifi cation was no surprise. In official circles here It Is recalled that the eeneral board of the navy adopted a new policy last winter before Secretary Metcalf was officially con nected with the department It Is reliably reported that President Roosevelt acting on the recommenda tion or tne general Doara, or wnicn xa mlral Dewey is the president, went over the plans with Captain Richard Walnwrlght of the navy and Lieutenant Colonel William W. Wltherspoon of the army, both members of the Joint board of the army and navy, after he went to Oyster Bay and approved the plan. While the ships cannot be moved for some months, the plan is thought to be announced now so as to forestall any possible complication or diplomatic stress which might make such move ment inexpedient, if not actually equiv alent to the declaration of war. Now that the policy has been announced. It can be carried out at the convenience of the government, even If the time should be Indefinitely extended. In some Quarters It Is believed that the administration is announcing the intended movement of the fleet to cow the progresslveness In Japan on the eve of making a new treaty clause provid ing for the exclusion of Japanese laborers. Violent agitation Is belnr worked ut in Japan against exclusion by treaty, and the Saionjl ministry Is condemned for the existing measure intended to keep out the coolies. The presence of tne rieei in racinc waters may ouiet the Jingoes in both countries. There Is some speculation as to the effect the firesence of the fleet may have on the abor question In California.

Nnnrtiv arter s cfolock, -with his broUieiVvllluim, and MoCormick. he rode to the Chicago office or the Standard oil company in an automobile. The object of the Jour ney was a conference . before entering court. Reaching the sidewalk In front of the Standard offices the oil king shook hands with the assembled reporters and cheerfully posed for the photographers. He appeared in the best of humor and did everything that was requested of him. He smilingly removed his nat, raised his cane, and struck various at tltudes UDon the reauest of the news paper men and ended bv- inviting the reporters to come to Ohio and play golf with him. At last, after posing for severar minutes, he said to tne pnoio graphers: "iou are too slow." Jokes' With Journalists. Jocular remarks were made about his personal -appearance and the oil king lamiueu inai ne was not as Daa looKing as he naa been painted. It was when he was asked for an in terview that the Invitation to play golf was extended. Rockefeller turned the subject by discussing the merits of his favorite sport. At 10 'clock Rockefeller and his party entered the Federal building, after hav ing held their conference at the offices of the Standard, to face Judge Landifc and answer the questions relative to the aaegea reoaiuig or the Alton. The last time John D. Rockefeller appeared before an investigating body In person was in 1888, when he was questioned by a senate committee of New zorK ana a manufacturers' com mittee concerning the formation of the oil trust He went through these in vestigations with flying colors and neither committee accomplished auy- fyining; .juju Rockefeller and his brother stole a march on .the newspaper men when arrived in Chicago yesterday- He' was expected over the Lakeu,Shoce at S o'clock in the evening, but Instead ar rived on tne Micnigan central at e p. m.

Oldfleld was a penitent man this morning and Issued the following signed statement: "Never before. I came to Portland has my reputation as a sportsman been at tacked.
