BOYS ARRESTED
And All Bicyclists Will Be Com

About a week ago the riders of bicycles

about a dozen messenger boys were ar
rested and taken to the police -station
with their wneels. Captain Moore did
not wish to bo harsh with the boys on
the first day, so he simply held the bikes
until their owners had time to go out
and purchase the required bells. The
news soon got abroad of what was being
done by the police, and there was a rush
made for bicycle shops and hardware
stores to purchase bells.
The law-will be rigidly enforced here

Interesting Description of Scenes
on the Road to Trout Lake.
(Journal Special Service.)
TBOTJT LAKE, ' July 17. The advance
guard of tha Masamat arrived In camp
yesterday afternoon.
All along the way. from White Salmon
to Trout Lake, flags have been nailed
to tha towering; pines, and as Old Glory

for tha two parties of Itaaamas 4hat are
to follow. Not only for these but also
for tha stragglers, bieyellsts and all who,
actuated by a lore for nature, will wand
their way toward old Mount Adams.
Tha grand old forests, which are ever
present, on tha right and on the left,
have no equal outside ofv the Pacific
Northwest Great fir tree mark the way
for tha first 20 miles, and as the road
gradually leads you upward to a greater
altitude, these are left behind, and tha
magnificent white pines are seen.
The White Salmon river, always on
the right side, dashing on its way toward
the Columbia furnishes soma grand pic
tures for tha artist
Tha- great canons, gorges, falls, the

ish off tha ueautlful picture which will
be portrayed to those who make this out
ing. Tom Tom, a bare peak some 6000 feet
In height, lies on tha right and about
half tha distance between White Salmon
and Trout Lake. This la one of the few
burying grounds which have not been
despoiled by civilisation.
The Indians hold this place in great
awe, believing It was a gift to them by
the Great Spirit, and It is from here
the soul of tha Redman will take its
flight to the "mansion beyond the skies."
White Salmon Falls are beautiful be
yond description- and are well worth a
visit. Some day this great water power
wm do service for man.

MONUMENT SITE
Committee Favors Sixth Street
Between Morrison and
Yamhill.
The site for the monument to be erected
to the memory of the dead soldiers of the
Second Oregon Regiment has been chosen
by the sub-committee having the matter
in charge. The location selected Is on
Sixth street between the Portland hotel
and the poatofflce building, but Is subject
to the action of the City Council. The re
port of the sub-committee was- adopted
yesterday on the condition mentioned. Its
main essentials are as follows:
"We have selected the center of Sixth
street, between Morrison and Yamhill
streets, between the Portland hotel and
the Postofflce. We believe that a space 25
feet in diameter will be sufficient, and as
this Is a wide street, It will leave a drive
way on each side of 12J4 feet. If this Is
not enough, the sidewalks on this street
are 15 feet wide, and five or more could
be taken off each side opposite the monu
ment and still leave sufficient pldewalk.
This would leave a driveway on i'ach side
of the mounment of 11 feet or more."
The monument fund is in the neighbor
hood of J14.000. It was decided by the
committee to submit the general plan of
a monument to one sculptor Instead of to
several as had been suggested.

the demand good and prices very satis
factory. He now has five miles of log
ging road. Is employing 60 men and put
ting In on an average of 50,000 feet a
day.
"The day has come," said he. 'when
a camp that does not employ 150 or 200
men and put In 150,000 or 200.000 feet a day
will soon have to retire from the busi
ness. However, there will be room for
all of us for awhile yet."

ROAD'S BUREAU .
OF INFORMATION
Major Bears,' who was selected as as
sistant to Chief Engineer McKlnney of
the Great Central Railway Company,
has been given a new position. He will
be known hereafter as the consulting en
gineer,, a position walch his experience
and ability will enable him to fill. Ma
jor, Sears, will also be In charge of what
will be known as the bureau ot informa
tion. ,
Two offices will be occupied by Major
Sears, rooms 1 and 2, on the second floor
of the Ainsworth -block. These were
rented yesterday and are now being
fitted up for his occupancy. He expects
to get Into tbem the later part of the
week. He said this morning that the ob
jects of the Bureau of Information were
to familiarise tha public with a knowledge
of the country-between Salt Lake and
Roseburg. Phamplets, circulars, etc., will
be prepared and distributed.
"It Is really quite surprising," declared
the Major, "how great the lack of know
ledge Is regarding tba Coos Bay country,
particularly. Its resources in agricul
ture, timber and . minerals exceed any
thing I have ever seen. In climate and
appearance, tha country resembles very
closely that of Costa Rica. Cabinet
woods, such as Germany gladly sends for
around Capo Horn to the West Coast of
Mexico, growl ia profusion. There la an
Immense supply of hard maple and myr
tle awaiting the Itx of the enterprising
Hera exists tha only belt of Port Orford
white cedar knowrt to exist in the world.
These facta should be known."
The Great Central's bureau of informa
tion expects to so systematically collect
its data that it will be ready at any
time to entertain proposals from any
number of persons who may desire to
form colonies in the territory tributary
to tha Oreat Central. In this way the
company will prove a powerful and im
portant factor. Major Sears' varied ex
perience in different parts'-ef the world,
his acknowledged ability as a writer and
his aptitude as a statistician should eml
nently quality him to fill the two post
tlons to which ha has been appointed.
TO WORK FOR
RECIPROCITY
A. H. Devers and Ci H- Mclsaacs will
round up the business men of Portland
and endeavor to organize tbem into a
branch of the National Reciprocity
League. f "
The National Reciprocity League of
Chicago Is leading a movement for the
reduction of tha tariff upon certain, im
ported articles. This league also recom
mends that this ba done by commercial
treaties which shall be negotiated by the
special Commissioner Plenipotentiary, the
Hon. John A. Kaason.
This league adopted resolutions stat
ing the above and giving as the reasons
that with only 5 per cent of the popula
tion In the world the United States has
arrived at that period In Its advance
ment when It produces 23 per cent of
the agricultural products of the earth and
34 per cnt of Its manufactured goods,
It would appear as though high protection
duties had to a very large extent ac
complished their purpose In development
and that a mure moderate tariff should
suffice to maintain our Industrial suprem
acy and that reasonable concessions can
safely be made with a view of augment
ing and extending our foreign trade.
CIRCUIT COURT NOTES.

has filed a suit in the State Circuit Court
against W. N. Sayret J. F. Kertchen and

It Is' claimed that the land was deeded

tens man and woman are good. Last
night Bert Carl appeared In two vocal
selections, and the applause he received
was well . merited. Dal ton and Lewis,
comedy dancers, were very funny. The
witty 'references to Tracy, the outlaw,
were greatly enjoyed. The illustrated
song, "Hello, Central, Give Me Heaven,"
was a touching bit of sentiment. The
polyscope pictures ware pleasing.

GAVE IT AWAY
Frank Hellen Is Done With New
Fangled Revolvers.
Sergeant of police. Church, Is the proud
possessor of a new revolver which the
donor of can testify from personal exper
ience la a very strong shooting "gain."
Only a short time ago, Frank Helen
purchased the revolver, at a good price.
It ia one of tha new Colt's magazine
affairs, carrying eight shells and ahoots
steel-Jacketed bullets.
The first chance Mr. Hellen got to try
hia new acquisition was the other night
when he accidentally used his own body
as a target. After the physicians had
noted the results of ths wound, which
extended from the hips to the shoulder,
and explained them to the wounded man,
the latter turned tha revolver over to the
officer, saying:
"Here, Sergeant, you take this gun. It's
yours. If I ever need another gun, I will
go back to the old fashioned make."
Sergeant Church showed his brother
officers the weapon at the police station
and explained Its mechanism. The ma
jority of those present wera satisfied with
what they carried in their hip pockets,
and ridiculed Church's rapid-fire shoot
ing iron.
But to satisfy themselves further, sev
eral acompanied the Sergeant' down be
low town where the revllver was given a
thorough test. It showed great accuracy
and penetration, but no one could be con
vinced that It was not a dangerous arti
cle to have on one's person. But then
Church says all guns are dangerous. He
could get no argument on this point, even
from the most combatatlve spirit.
