of a pioneer family of French prairie.
'Marlon county, la bolievol by her par
ent to hava eloped with Freeman Van
dell, son of a neighbor of A. J. Buy-
, feerla, the glrl'a father.
1 The Portland police were asked yes
terday afternoon to apprehend the young
"pair. 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. Mr. Buyserle be
lieves that after spending the Fourth
In Portland. Vandell and the girl will
go to Vancouver today "and tomorrow
obtain a license from the Clarke county
authorities and wed without delay. Re
turning from Portland s Gretna Oreen

parents.
All during last evening the officers
assigned to special duty at tne uuks
"That Hat Looks Like a Bruised Egg-Shell, " Says Bill to Heck, Then
Everybody Rubbers.
Ml
searched the crowd for the eloulng pair
but without success. The Vancouver
cars were also watched, but in vain.
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. He wore

SALEM CHERRY FAIR
fS POSTPONED A WEEK
Fair Executive Committee
- Decided on Action
Yesterday.
(8alm Bureau of The Journal.)
- Salem,. Or., July 4. Owing to an un-
usually late season the Salem cherry
fair has had tp be postponed one week.
The dates now given out are Thursday,
, Friday and Saturday, July 16, 17 and 18,
JJlhstead of July 9. 10 and 11. as first an-
nounced. c. A. Park, fruit comrnls
.Bloner for this district, made a tour of
J"the valley yesterday and on his advice
1;the executive committee of the fair
.tftSGOClatdlon met todav and decided to
postpone the fair. 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.

of ceremonies. 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

and noise loving Chinamen were about

During the last fis'-a'l ve

wherever there was nn offering of a
place to go there were those who
Jumped at the chance.
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. The streetcar men were
tha. ones who hal the strenuous day,

The above description can only give you an idea of the vast extent
of tomorrow's "bargain-giving" in good, dependable pianos. Come
and inspect them, when, if you have any use for a piano at all, you
will share in these price concessions far below any we' have yet
made and we've made them tery low at other times.
Eilers PianQ House have on rent at all times several hundred
pianos, and they come in and go. out daily, but ust now, onjecount
of so many people going to the beach, mountains and other points,
on vacations, etc., we've had more pianos returned from rent than
ordinarily, and we are simply up a tree for rdom to store them, hence
this offer to close them out less than half for: some and half price
for many. Player Pianos, too, and Piano Players, good ones, sac
rificed $40, $50 and up.
During the past 10 days, over 25 "best makes" good pianos
have been exchanged for Weber and other Pianola Pianos handled
by this house, and quite a few for Chickering and Weber Grands, all
of which have been placed in the Piano Exchange and Bargain Room
for immediate disposal, and we want to state with all possible em
phasis that such bargains have never before been offered in Portland
could not be, in all possibility, again, except from Eilers Piano
House, because the collection is made up of pianos that came to us
as above stated, in exchange, as part pay for Weber and other
Pianola Pianos.
Dollars can be saved here in large numbers. tomorrow, and any
body wanting a piano at all would better think twice before letting
this opportupity go by.
Especially as we make terms to suit your convenience and the
piano will be delivered at once upon payment of a merely nominal
sum,- to be followed by small monthly payments hereafter.
If you don't need a piano for your home, perhaps you would like
one at the beach or the bungalow. Now is the time to get It.

whatever, only a little regulating polishing and tuning. They are
