Tbe following letter deacribiog tbe
celebration of the birthday of tbe
King of Slam, and character of the
monarch of tbe kingdom, waa written
by Charlton Perkioa, ion of Mr. and
Mrg. H. 0. Perkins of thii placet
Bangkok, Siam, Nov. lotb, 1905.
Ilia Majeity, Ohnlaloogkorn, King
of Siam, celebrated his 62d birthday,
and 37 years of reign over the King
dom of Siam, tbe country of tbe
aaared white elephant
Each year on this ocean on tbe city
ia limply to rued into a fairy land,
everyone dona their beat clothing and
each tries to outdo the other In dec
orating their homei and placet of
liuslnea. Every conceivable object
was decorated, while at nigbt the
city wai aglow with millions upon
millions of tiny cocoanat oil lamps,
making a moat weird scene as they
twinlked in the breeze. Tbe decora
tions this year far exceeded those of
any previous year. Several of tbe
large Wats (Pagodas) were covered
with thoonands of , these tiny lamps,
and as these structures towered above
the surrounding buildings they appear
ed as tremendous pillars of fire.
The Siamese flag, red field and
white elephaut, decorated every
couceivable object, and everywhere
were to be wen tbe words "Long live
the king!'' The many street cars
were so decorated that they seemed
hut a garland of flowers and shining
beads speeding through the 'streets.
On the front of one was a working
model of a rice mill, with engine aud
boiler under fnll steam, on others
were to be seen the image of Confu
cius and the carp, lions, tigers,
leopards and elephants.
At 10 a. m. the king passed down
the river in his royal barge to view
the decorations, and at 4 p. m. be
pasted through the priuoipal streets
dirving his own monster electric car
to view the land decorations. The
king has several very fine electric cars
and may be seen out auy eveoiug with
his children and the queen,
During the evening the annual
coronation ball was held inside the
foreign ofllce building in the king's
palace grounds. The buildings were
handsomely decorated, while inside
they were furnished in true Oriental
magnificence and splendor, the carpets
and hangings were of the finest tur
klsh make aud represented fabulous
wealth. The king's younger brother,
beir apparent t o tho throne, assisted
by tho crown prince, received the
foreigu guests and diplomatic, corps.
The muHto was most charming. At
one end of the hall were 2ft stringed
iiiHtruuients played by Egyptian and
Italian women whuo iu the court of
the building below was stationed the
kiug's loyal band which played to the
delight of everyoue, more especially
to Americans, 'or in all their music
was noticeable, familiar bars of
American air-, such as "Marching
Through Georgia," Old Folks at
Home," ''Washington Post" and
many others. This Is ci plained by
the fact that the le.tder of the king's
band for ninny years was a Oerman
Ainerican and he had oouipomci prac
tically all the uiUHio.
At 11 :4't the king, accompanied by
his brother aud crown prince, entered
the hall speaking to thoNe.he w lulled
and holding a few moments conversa
tion with the different diplomatic
corps. Th kiug leading the guests
all following paused into the foreign
court room, where a moat sumptuous
supper was served in up to dale
Kuropenu nmuner. The king occupied
the head of the table, while ou his
right wan the American Minister,
Hamilton King, ou th left, Mr.
Si robe 1 hia legal advisor, so ou were
the different government representa
tive seated.
Afer the Mippe- was over Mr. StroM
bad the dimingniahed honor of his
majesty the king, bestowing npou him
the highest order "The graud cross
of the White Elephant." which is
memorable as a mark of royal appre
ciation of sigi.al services rendered by
him as general advisor to the throne.
The principal of these services was
that of bringing about the tiual ad
Jui.t:::et and conclusion of the
Kraiico - Siamese convention, which
has secured to JJiam a welcome period
of freedom from international worrits.
Mr.'Stroliel" has" rendered to the
Siamese government indispeusable
services for which the kiug has given
the highest ssible token of apprecia
tion. It is a fact of some pride to
know that our country has furnished
such diplomats as lUmiltou Kiug
and Mr. StroM, to atreugtheu the
friendly relations between our repnb
lie and the kingdom of Siam.
Siam is making rapid strides of pro
gress and bearing us share iu the
"awakening of the East," which
mark the proseut age. Freed from
Ereuch aggression by tbe reoeut
treaty, it is devoting its whole oneigy

resources of the country, while every
effort is being made to promote the
social and moral betterment of the
people by gradually eliminating those
feature in the national life which
retard its advancement. Railways
and canal . are being constructed
bringing the distant parts of tbe
country into connection with tbe
capital; the administration of the
province ha been reformed, law
are being codified, recent legislation
baa abolished inch cils a gambling,
and court for settling land title
baa been established, while edncation
i carefully fostered. At the bead of
every movement calculated to pro
mote the welfare of the country stand
the king, Inspiring and encouraging
all with hia patrlotio spirit and un
tiring devotion to duty. This noble
example let by bi majesty is In all
best service for tbe betterment of tbe
country. In truth, iu Siam royalty
play no unworthy or Insiggniflcaot
part in the great drama of national
awakening, and the fact is duly recog
nized by tbe people who adore their
overign to a degree unknown to other
absolute despotism.
"Five hundred million dollar will
be brought to the Pacific Northwest
within tbe next five years for invest
ment and speculative purposes," is
the statement of a Los Angeles
capitalist one of those who recently
have been baying Portland realty,
ay the Telegram.
Tbe statement was made deliber
ately, and further assertion that "Los
Angeles, bas reached a stage iu b r
development whire large additional
sums will not be immediately invested
there," was uttered without prejudice
to Los Angeles, by one who bad had
extensive financial interest in that
city. "In fact, such investment are
held to be good in every way, but
capital is turning more to the North
west." The man referred to made
the statement to Portland bank
official calmly and positively.
He contended that the East as a
section ha never evinced so great in
terest in affair of the Pacifio Coast as
now. Comparison of resources has
shown a vastness and diversity of
products and lateut possibilitiei before
which financiers of the East stand
and strangely marvel that tbey bave
not discovered their exist nee earlier.

Southern Oregon Will Be Called

for Fluxing.
well known mining, man to the
Courier, describes mining conditions
iu Shasta county, California, and
tells of the need of silicioua ores at
the smelters. Southern Oregon has
plenty of this kind of ore and may
soon be drawn npou to supply the
smelters there with ore of this char
acter for fluxing purposes. Following
is the letter:
Editor Courier With the develop
ment of the Mammoth Copper Mining
Company's properties at Kennet, a
new era of prosperity has been ushered
in, in Northern California. Ham
pered by the outrageous freight
charges of the Southern Pacifio it re
quired considerable capital and much
nerve for a mining company to un
dertake to open np the immense
bodies of low grade ore that occor in
Shasta county
The company' mine Is very eco
nomically worked, tunnelling and
stoping being the gole method. Their
three-furnace smelter is located ou
tbe main line of the Southern Pacific
and being 2.j(K) feet less elevation than
the mine a cable tramway, three miles
long carries the ore from the tunnel
month to the smelter bins. The three
furnaces are each -I'.'xlSO inches at the
tuyeres, have a 14 foot shaft aud since
blowing in have averaged 325 tons
every 21 hours, giving the plant a
daily capacity of nearly 1000 tous.
Tho air is furnished by three Con
uersville blowers, electricity being
the motive power.
Hie ore from the Mammoth mine is
a heavy sulphide, analyzing approxi
mately, silica, 10 per cent; iron, 35
per cent and sulphur -15 per cent and
carrying values' of copper S per cent;
gold aud silver f 1. The lime rock
used for flux is supplied from a quarry
alsive the smelter br a gravity tram
to the storage bins. The meat ditlicult
feature in the treatment of the ores I
the lack of silica. This is overcome
those who have actually bought real
estate in Portland, there is not alone
conviction but expression that the
people of this state, and notably of
the City of 1 Portland, are not
soRlolently awake to the remarkable
opportunities about them. In speak
ing of the subject, one man said:
"You people do not seem to have
oivio pride to the degree that would
impel direct presentation of your ad
vantage. In fact, they seem indiff
erent to those who come here to assist
in developing the state by investing
money in various industrial or other
enterprises.
"There arn no means of measuring
the extent of Oregon' possibilities in
tbe way of sound investment. Tbe
future of the stale Is beyond question
a great one. Other sections, with far
less natural wealth nnd productive
ness, have by encouraging investment,
welcoming and aiding establishment
of new industries and by sensible and
well-directed effort to gain new popu
lation, far exceeded Oregtn iu pro
gressive growth and development."
Croup
Begins with the symptoms of a cotu

will cry for it, and nt the first in of

Mrs. A! Vliet, New Castle, Colo.,
