"HITTING
THE TRAIL"
AS SEEN IN A DAY AT THE FAIR
Many of the Attraction are from
tha Pike at St. Leyla Soma
oftha Features
Tortland, June 5,; Seven dollars
will enable the visitor to the Lewis
and Clark Exposition to see every
concession on the Trail, the amuse
ment thoroughfare of the Centen
nial. At St. Louis it cost in the
neighborhood of $30.00 to see the
"Pike" with its seventy shows
many of them which were not
worth the price of admission. The
Trail offers thirty-bve of the finest
ttliiaClIuua vvCJ iililuucu iU UU ex
position. Fancy seeing thirty-five
shows for seven dollars.
The mast expensive concession
on the Trail is the Carnival of Ven
ice, a spectacular production de
signed by the "King of the Ballet",
Iloiossy Kiralfy. The price of ad
mission to this attraction is 50 cents
and after seeing the show the fee
will be pronounced leasonable.
Five hundred persons participate on
the stage. The scene is laid in
Venice and by means of some very
fine scenic offerings the illusion is
faithfully carried out. even to the
canals of that Italian city. The
canals are of real water. The Car
nival of Venice is a terpsichore an
extravaganza of the highest order
Leaving the Carnival of Venice
the visitor meanders over to the
Homer Davenport-Farm. Paying
twenty-five cents he enters and be
holds the foremost cartoonist of the
world comfortably seated on a rus
tic bench before a crudely built log
house. Surrounding the illustrious
penman are hundreds of blooded
fowls, several specimens of horses
of Arabian blood and a magnificent
Hambletonian. Davenport will be
iound affable, urbane and demo
cratic, and if the visitor is of the
right sort the cartoonist may offer
him a modest sketch as a memento
Across the way from Dayenport s
is the Klondike mining exhibit,
This concession is pre-eminent from
an educational standpoint and of
fers the visitor a truthful portrayal
of mining methods in vogue in the
gold fields oi Alaska. The building
that houses the show is designed in
side in panorama eflect and a full-
sized placer mine i9 found in opera'
tion. Clean-ups of real gold worth
$10,000 are made every hour. The
admission is 25 cents.
Following the Trail the visitor
enters Streets of Cairo, paying a fee
of fifteen cents. lie is now in the
midst of ' all that is Egyptian
Strangely garbed people are seeu on
all sides; now a diminutive donkey
belabored by a boy in flowing robe
dashes past, or a monstrous camel
loaded with humane freight turn
lers through the street. Ferocious
looking warriors dance about in
mock combat. The shrieking
strains of curious Oriental instru
mentsare waited from the theatre
on the solt Oregon ozone. For
twenty-five cents the visitor gains
entrance to this foreign show house
and spends a pleasant half hour
viewing the antics of a strange
jxrople.
A wonderful show is located al
most opposite the streets of Cairo,
the infant incubators. There is no
gaiety about this concession. It re
presents the most astonishing
achievement of modern science, the
nurturing of the human being by
artificial means. In the pleasing
little building housing this attrac
tion are several ingeniously con
structed incubators containing real
live infants. Visitors are allowed
to gaze at them through plate glass
and apparently the tots are content
to remain in their snug homes.
The admission to the infant in
cubators is twenty-five cents.
And so 011 down the Trail the
visitor may meander. A great
many of the shows offer admission
as low as ten cents. The visitor
finds foolish shows and serious
shows, or he may devote his time
to instructive shows. No matter
how hard he "hits the Trail', he
cannot spend more than seven dol
lars, which will admit him to thirty
five attractions, unless he chooses
to take in a show more than once.
The entire list of concessions, with
their prices of admisfion, follows:
Gay Taree, jj cents; Concert
Hall, 25 cents; Infant Incubators,
35 cents; Cascade Gardens, 25 cents;
White Swan, 10 cents; Japanese

"John Malcohm Graham," win
ner of the prize of $ too for the best
ballad on the Trail, offered by Mr.
I. N. Fleischner, chairman of the
exploitation and publicity commit
tee for the Lewis and Clark exposi
tion, turns out to be a woman, Mrs.
A. A. Lindsley who for a year past
has resided in Portland.' Mrs. Lind
sley is the wife of a former state
treasurer of Washington. She is a
graduate of the Michigan univer
sity at Aim Arbor.
The winning poem was mailed to
the publicity committee, signed
"John Malcohm Graham, General
Delivery." When the judges an
nounced their decision, no one knew
who "John Malcohm Graham"
was, the name not appearing in the
Portland city directory.
Mrs. Lindsley's poem is deemed
peculiarly fitting lor the purpose,
as it brings out in strong, snappy
language the tilt and swing of the
rider "hitting the trail" to the west
ward, shows forth the development
brought about by the pioneers, and
gives due honor to Lewis and Clark.
The winning poem follows:
