TROUT LAKE, July tt.-Old Sol never

' bailiwick aa well as Oregon, and mutt
be in accord with us, for the weather
all that could be wished not hot, not
cold Just right for everything we wish
to undertake.
Not one untoward incident has hap
peted, nor baa one detail been wanting
to complete the occasion. ,
Pueblo de Mazama la 'laid out In a
square with a plaxa in the center, old
glory at the top ota forty-foot flag pole
and the Mazama colora below. At night

lending a acene long to be remembered
by those who are fortunate enough to
be here.

dozen outside; all In all, 45 tenta are the
temporary realdencea of nearly 200 people

, It haa been an easy trip from Portland.
With a good rest and refreshment at
White Salmon over night and a beautiful
ride along atreama and through forest to
Trout Lake, the moat feeble peraon could
not complain. '
' Today SO periona visited the ice and
lava caves. It la not often one can step
from the bright, warm sunlight, the dle
tanoe of ten feet, into an Ice-bound cav
ern, but here nature has erected an
ice houae sufficiently large to accommo
date the total supplies of cold storage
material for a city like Portland for a
week. And this is one cave only, there
are a dozen or more. Different ones have
been appropriated by the ranchers as
their Individual "ice boxes." ,The great
lava cave la more than half a mile In
length, the floor of which would make
a dancing platform for the entire popula
tion of Portland, with the music fur
nished by thegentle breeze aa it plays
through the leaves of the pine trees
above.
Was there ever a scene like this any
where else on earth?
Governor Oeer tried his luck at fish

George failed to furnish the right kind
of bait (or fly) his returns failed, to
supply him food enough for himself and

Visitor Is not entirely without Its re

and aa the Shah Is expected to make big
purchases in this line, the mercnanta do
not share the dread with which the offi

As purchasers there is a marked differ
ence between the. present Shah and his
father, Nasr-Ed-D&en. The last-named
was an excellent hand at making a bar
gain, but not too scrupulous In conclud

rarely asked for the bill, and, there are
some merchants today In Antwerp who
are still waiting for a settlement for bills
contracted by the late Shah on the oc

son, on the other hand, is regarded as
