The jrlrl la only 16 years old, while Vandell'a age la given as 23 years by Mr Buyserle, who left his home In Et. Paul to aeek his daughter In the city yesterday. Without telling: her parents that she Intended leaving: home, Miss Buyserle left St. Paul in company with Vandell lust evening. Later In the nlpht the parents became convinced that the girl had left her homo to marry Yandfll, nn! j 1"he father started In pursuit without delay. Unable' to find any trace of the errant lovers in Portland throuch his own ef forts, he appealed to Chief tirltxmacher yesterday afternoon to put his detec tives upon the trail.

Both families are well known In the vicinity of St. Paul, the Buyserles hav ing lived there for years. Vandell has a strain of French Canadian blood in lils veins. - Tha fact that Miss Buyserle took two ArpftHPH from her home, n red eown and a white one, makes the work of the officers trying to find the girl before she marries exceedingly difficult. She is aged 18, is about 5 feet In height, of4 light complexion, light brown hair and stooped shoulders. Freeman Vandell Is aged 23 years, is dark and heavy set, height about 6 feet and weighs about 165 pounds.

The fair has been j;;widely advertised throughout the-state. ....but It Is not thought the postponement Mil work any harm. Tho not cause surprise to rnanv valley ...growers who are preparing to exhibit. Curiosity, It is said, K'lled the cat And curiosity, it"ls said, is to be the cause of the. grand Jury rooms in the federal building being changed to an other rjart of the structure. Or at least. It is said, this change Is under consideration. It is said the change, is for the good at the grand Jurors and the government service In general. Also some others might nenerit, it is sain. This is an "it is said" story. It is said. .. You see. it all came about in this way. It Is said. The federal grand Jurv room Is on the third floor of the postofflre build ing. Tills Is a fact. Two windows look out onto Morrison street. This Is also a fact. Across the street is a millin ery establishment. Fact. On the floor below there are dressmakers' fitting apartments. Fact. One Enbbef, All ZCnbber. Well, now and then when the staid old federal grand Jurors are In session and considering pome alleged schoino in which some person has endeavored to defraud the government of a million acres of land or something of that sort, and-when perhaps an Important witness Is being examined, something across the street ottr.-icts the eve of one of the men. There are usually about -3 of them. One look". It Is Pflld. and nec;lertR his duty. Another follows suit. It Is said. One by one the" others tjealn looking askance over across the way. After awhile the whole brfnch Is taking in the scene. It la. said. It is said that on one ocension witness, attorneys and all Just quit business and became an au dience altogether. Tou know yourself, you men, that when a woman Is trying on a nice new hat, she is Just naturally pretty. And you know, too, you fellows, that when a woman Is behind a flimsy screen and you can't see everything that's going on you lust naturally can t resist ana will look as long as the next one so as to bo sure of not missing anything, nut about all that ever goes on there, it Is said, is hat after hat is tried on and put back upon the shelf until the right oo is eventually brought forth. The Star Attraction. And downstairs, across from the fed eral grand Jury rooms, there are the dressmaking rooms. And another screen. And behind that and behind that screen, the screen across from the grand Jury room, you know. Well, be hind that screen the screen Is rather thicker than mosquito bar, behind which well, whatever la behind that screen has caused all the rubbernecking, it is said. No particular grand Jury Is responsl- ile for this proposed change In the srranrt iurv rooms. It is said. It is said that these fa-sclnatlng sights across the street have been distracting from the KTand Jury business for years- and years. And so. rather than take anv more chances on the grand Jurors overlooking a bet Mint is. a pet wnen u comes to considering some detail of evidence the government authorities have about ilecldod to m.ove the grand Jury quarters to runiim on the south side of the fed eral building-. Then the Jurors can look out onto Yamhill street and Into Fifth stie't. There will be nothing to attract their attention,' and old Uncle Sam will sleep in peae once again.

There were picnics to the north and the east, the west anil the south, also to all other points of the compass. Portland people took the cars and tho boats, the furnishings of the livery eta bits and the locomotives given them by a kind Providence and hit the early morning trail for tha woods. Lown town tho streets were practically ne the wharves and dotting the river itself to see the boat races curing me aiier noon there were no -accidents of mo ment, the most serious being the wet ting of a few feet when the overloading of the pontoon at one of tho boathouses caused the landing to sink under water before the people could be gotten off. It seemed to be the almost universal desire of the celebrants to get out of town. Early in the morning tha street cars began to receive loads of eager ex cursionists bearing lunch baskets and bound for the numerous parks and wuoded places around the city. Throughout the morning hours the Union depot was jammen witn a sway- ine- mass of humanity struggling for an opportunity to board the trains bound serted and lonesome looking small, boys and noise loving Chinamen were about the only ones who made the nervous Jump wi'h their bombardment.

Throughout, the day things were quiet, comparatively speaking throughout the cltv. and It was not until night had lallen that the merrymakers began to burn nowder enough to make any per ceptible noise distinctly noticeable above the usual raitle and rush of the city streets. As the darkness fell the noise Increased until along toward the latter hours of the evening there was a merry clatter and bang. In compari son with previous years, however, the noise anil emoke was very small. Sana All the Way ThroufH. Portland had a very sane Fourth. There were no very serious acchlontK reported, most of those noted beii g f a flight nature caused bv premature, explosions of firecrackers resulting in lajidlng because of the high water. Hard Say for Streetcar Han. It was not until late at night that the tired crowds began to return, every car and boat being crowded to capacity with weary people who had spent the day outside of the city. Altogether the day was a quiet one, taking Into consideration the fact that the Fourth is tho one annual day of nolne, and the disciples of a safe and sane holiday had no cause for grum bling or protest. The police had an easy time, that Is easier than usual, the fire department was worn witn tne strain of waiting for something to hap pen more than by the runs the com panies made.
