REUNION OF
FATiIILY HELD
Descendants of E. W. Robert
son Will Make Gather
ing Annual Affair.
On the banks of the beautiful and
.tabling Santiam river, near the city
of Gates, occurred one of the most
pleasant and enjoyable garnering
gathering Sunday. June 16, that it
has been the pleasure og the partici
pants to enjoy for many a year. If

a ramiiy picnic, wnieo rainer iook
the hue of a reunion of the relatives
-and decendants of the late E. W.
Kobertsson, who with his family
landed In Marion county. May 18,
1873, and settled on an unimproved
farm five mile south of Salem, where
he "hewed out of the forest" one
of - the best farms Jn that vacintty.
which is now in the midst of - the
famous prune belt. -
In the eaily eighties Mr. Robert
son moved from the farm into town
that the younger children might
have better school facilities, as at
thlt time, it was necessary to go from
two to rour miles to scnooi.
Mr. Robertson was widely known
throughout this part of the State, as
during 1875 or 1876 he drove over
Marion, Lynn, Polk. Yamhill and
Clackamas counties and sold vehicles
and farming implements for the pion
eer hardware merchant of Salem.
Thomas Cunningham. .
He afterwards built the Red Star
Flouring mill at Turner, which plant
h was operating at the time of bis
death In the early nineties.
There are still livinr nla hrnthor
and one sister. There are many

MONTELLO EVACUATED
BY AUSTRIAN TROOPS
(Continued from page 1)
expressed by Mr. Baker that the de
feat could not help bnt Influence
greatly the course of events In
France. It in regarded as vital from
the German point of view that tbs
Italian front be made secure before
German designs In France can be
prosecuted to their fullest develop
ment. While there 1 imminent dan
ger that the Austro-Hungarian gov
ernment may collapse Germany can
not devote hersedf wholly to the task
she has undertaken of forcing victory
in the west before American man
power can swing the scales finally
against her.
For this reason, both at the war
department and la diplomatic cir
cles, there was much speculation as
to the moves to support Austria al
ready taken by the German high
command. There is little doubt that
reports of large German troop move
ments to Italy are well founded, as It
is believed that the situation roust
be restored at all costs unless the
whole great offensive in France is
to fall of Its own weight.
The German promlem If rushing
troops to Italy is a difficult one.
The transportation of a sufficient
force to orfset the Italian vlctery
must necessarily be slow.
RETREAT IS DRY.
ROME. June 24. "The enemy wUl

Issued this evening eoncernong the
fgibting on the Italian gfront. "but
as a matter of fact, the Piave at the
moment of the retreat was almost
dry, a circumstance which enabled
the enein yto get a large part of his
troops across the stream. If a ford
ing had been lacking and if he had
been obliged to count on pontoons
painfully thrown across the river un
der the Italian fire .his losses would
have been still more appalling than
they were.

Especially gratifying to the mem
ber of the club is the enthusiasm
manifested by the tepresentatlve peo
ple of the city, by the Cherrians as
an organization and by musicians
and music lovers generally. As an
appreciation of the splendid efforts
of J. W. Todd, director or the Apollo
club, and of Its members, most of
whom gave liberally of their individ
ual time and talents in the production
of the Cheriian minstrel show, the
Cherrians have voluntarily taken it
upon themselves to patronize and
boost, the Apollo dab concert at
every apporunity.
Considering even that the Wednes
day night performance will be the
Initial public' appearance of the club
as a singing-organization. It Is freely
predicted by friends who have been
present at some of the club's rehears
als that the boys are sure to make
a splendid lnpresston and that foun
dation will have been established for
a permanent and increasingly effici
ent made chorus, one of which Salem
can look npon and refer to with
pleasure and pride.
It is felt by the members that they
are especially fortunate in having for
their honorary president and sponsor
Justice George H. Burnett, who with
his characteristic energy has shown
a lively Interest in his proteges.
Jndge Burnett has honored the clnb
byy his presence at several of Its
-ecent rehearsals and one - one of
these evenings the singers were given
an exhibition of the jurist's well
known, spontaneous patriotism when.
after the had sung for him "The Kil
ties' March." he jumped to his feet
and gave his approval with a liberal
appaluse. !
Assisting Miss Bern Ice Clark, who
the club's official accompanist, in
giving added effect to several of the
concert program numbers, will be

Clark's ability as an accompanist pre
cluded the necessity of having to Im
port orie from elsewhere to play for
Mrs. LnlufDahl Miller the selections

SF.XATK EXTEVDS TREATY.
WASHINGTON. June "24. The
senate today ratified a treaty ex
tending for five, years the general
arbitration agreement between the
United States and Great Britlan.
Special lectures are to be given at
Cambridge. Eng., shout the United
States. They are becoming : inter
ested In us over there. They were
partial to the IT.S.A. In 177C. but in
a different way.
THE -PLT AWAY" CAME.
Instead of saying. "I didn't want
to." Clyde always said. 'l forgot" to
put his toys In the play-cupboard
when ha had finished playing with
them.
It was much easier to run out
doors and leave his blocks or engine
on the floor, where he could begin
playing again when he came in. "Be-
Mdos," he reasoned. "Baby Mark
likes to play with them when I've
gono to school."
At noon on his birthday Clyde was
playing on the floor, with his "dis
sected'' map and pictures when the
bell rang, and not waiting to place
them in their boxes he left them on
the library floor.
He was practicing hia games, for
his teacher. Miss West, was to have
a "birthday" supper and spend the
evening with them. For Clyde had
looked forward to the time when he
could show Mi as West how quickly
and correct he could place every
fiece of the map la Its proper place.
In seven minutes Ume! Less than
his mamma or papa. Cor they had
tried it! He was sure he coald win
over Miss West tonight.
They often cut np all sorts of pic
tures and pat them togethef again.
Then he wished his teacher to see
how well h played the "Gaesser
Game" which he and papa had "maa-
factnred" themselves. ,
Every large or small animal, bird.
fish, or insect p Ids re which was of
no value u any one they raved. The
t S r iJ " " l n
ft .
large pictures Clyde would carefully
cut out. Then papa or Clyde would
hold up the back of the picture and
the other would guess the animal by
the shape of IL Then they would cut
the heads', legs, and sometimes tails
from the smaller pictures and by
looking at one pait of the picture,
guess the- animal by the one part.
Clyde felt cure of winning this game,
too.
So that evening after Clyde had
helped clear the table, when maronra
said, "Now, son, you can bring out
your games," It was with a mischiev
ous grin that Clyde went to the top
cupboard. "Where are they, mamma? They're
not here."
They must be there. Did yon have
them out today T"
"Baby Mark must have scattered
or lost 'em. I left them on the
floor." Clyde whimpered, shame
facedly. "I'll hunt em."
Upstairs, downstairs, la my "lady's
chamber" where baby Mark was
-snooslly" sleeping they all looked,
but not a scrap of the map or pic
tures was found. Even In the cold
air register and In the cellar under
the clothes chute, back of the piano.
In corners, crevices, and cloaets! The
empty boxes were lying under the
book-case near where Clyde bad
been playing.
"I was busy in the kitchen and
was not la the library after Clyde
left. And there was no one here but
the minister. Nor was Mark out
doors," mamma said thoughtfully.
"He couldn't have swallowed them
all." Clyde d.rawledr
4 WhyT Baby Mark or the minis
ter?" papa asked, at which they all
laughed. "Tis queer. Indeed. The
menagerie must have escaped and
carried off the map. aa It's certaia
they're not In their cage. They're
dissected from as. sure enough." '
Toor Clyde could scarcely keep the
tears from showing la his eyes, and
his tones were tear? the 'remainder
of the evening. "Oh, If I had put
them away," he kepj, thinking.
As a parting word Miss West add
ed. "When yon discover the old or
manufacture a aewnenagerie and a
map to live on. I'll come and play
with them."
Afterward, while they were excit
edly talking about the wanderiag
game." the telephone ranf.
It was the minister, and what do
you think? With many laughs, apol
ogies, and Questionings the minister
informed them that he had the whole
map and the menagerie. lie had tak
en them and didn't know Itl That
was the strange part of It! And hew?
. A few minutes before, he had gone
to his overcoat for a packs gs he had
received oa his ronnd of afternoon
calls and found the dissected pictures
la the pockets of his overcoat.
Baby Mark had busily and careful
ly put them together in the coat
which mamma had placed on a chair.
just Inside the library door, out of
sight from where mamma and the
minister were sitting.
"Sort of a Joke for a minister to
ran away with a menagerie," mamma
laughed.
"Yes. and carry the map off, too,
so we couldn't find them." papa
added. .
Clyde never forgot the "put sway"
