The manner of celebration, namely, of ..holding- games and oontcsts with med als to stimulate competition, drew the children to places of safety and re lieved the anxiety of their parents. It attracted thousands of older persons to wltnees the fames and thus Indirectly served as a great popularising agency for the pity parks. The prospect of the ' games and the music interested the . children and, through them, the parents, so that the play parks as places of entertainment and diversion were brought prominently beforo all the peo. pie of the city. " - iThe general fourth committee points ont, also, that more general celebra tion of Independence day obtained than would have boen -possible through the agency of fire works. Five thousand children engaged In the games and 100, 000 older Individuals had a mora or less , personal Interest in the outcome of them.. The eiady places of the parks meanwhile served as attractive picnic grounds. ' - 'It Is believed that cooperation will be forthcoming In preparation for next year s program, and that plans for new play grounds In accordance with Mayor Rushlight's announced policy will be popularly approved because of the proof ol playground utility furnished by the Fourth's manner of celebration. .There were set programs of games . and races last Tuesday at Bellwood, Peninsula, Brooklyn, Columbia and North parks, given under the ausnlces of the park board and under the direc tion of A. M. Grilley, play park director. At Mt. Tabor games and music were furnished In the beautiful park there i under the auspices of the Tabor Heights Improvement association. These cele brations, it Is pointed out, did very much to promote the community idea In play park use. Children became better acquainted and In a very happy way. So did their elders. Continuance of the policy and increase in the number of parka will be a very valuable asset to the city, it Is said. v. ' C EXPLORER SENDS a ' if si.

He has the garter among his decorations, and the military schools of Sweden are under his Inspection. He married, about thirty years ago, Princess ; Victoria, daughter ot the late and sister . f ; the present grsnd duke of Baden. . ' I.lke - Me father, King Oustave is a good sportsman and a splendid ahot. 1 He la regarded aa the nest tennis, play w In his tennis court-many of them won against all comers, and not those who gladly lose a game to so lllus trious a personage. ' King Oustave Is keenly Interested la military . affairs. .. It was as a soJdlar that he Introduced some of his future subjects to his bride. "Gentlemen," he said, "the colonel of the regiment de sires to introduce his wife to the regl ment." And ss the "colonel's wife the queen of Sweden wes known for many Ions year afterwards. Not without reason has his majesty been called the most democratic king in Europe. His court is one of the most simple and homely. The poorest of his subjects may call and speak to their sovereign with no more formality than the send lng In of their names. An out-and-out total abstainer, his majesty, during his crown princely days, did much by force of example to further the cause of tem perance. Out of the five million in habitants of his kingdom nearly three quarters of a million are organised tee totalers. , c ENGINEERS t HAVE BIG, PERSPIRING TIME The stationary engineers of Portland are getting ready for their third annual fun fest." With their families and their friends they will board the"eteam er Joseph Kellogg at the foot of Sal man street on the morning of July 10 and go to Golden Gate Park. The committee on arrangements for the day says that the program will be funny. The committee Includes the fol lowing men, well known among the en glneers: F. V. Kroll. John Faulkner. Frank Akers. William Etchell, Wlllam AiacKensie, c Nern, w. IL Murphy and James Magulro. There are to be contests and for the winners prises to stimulate competition For the rest of it the announcement says: "A first clsss orchestra will furnish Jig time music. One of the biggest events will be a ball game between the cigar makers and the engineers. Ever since the cigar makers put it over the bartenders, their man Fitsaerald has been going around with a chip on his shoulder handing out defiant words to every other ball team In the city, but the engineers will play ball like they had live steam inside them snd the fine feather of "Fits" will be drabbled. "The engineers felt badly neeved when Messrs. Magulre and Mackenzie reported At the last meeting that they were unable to get a porker tor the greased pig race, but they felt a little better with the sssurance that i there would surely be a greased something race. , 'Baseball gnd greased pigs or greased SAN FRANCISCO poles or whatever it may be will be only a few of the laugh making events. We will have a fat man's race in which "Big Bill" is barred because he ran too long In one plane last year, and also because the meat trust refused to sell him that pig. All others will be admitted ir rat enough. We may have a thin man's race, too, if there are any thin enough to enter after the 'eats' we will nave at the park." PORTLAND IS RIVAL OF 'Philip N. W.
