Oregon doi's not rcnlizo ulint Mir
pnsinj,' scenic resources it ha in the
lakes of southern Oregon, in the opin
ion of Gilbert II. Qrosenor of Wash
injjton, T). C, editor of the National
fleoeraplijeal Mnj:nziiu', who sjient
Sunday in Portland.
Mr. Orosvenor declnreq that Klnm
ntli Iifkf in one of the most wonder
ful sheets of water lie ever saw. He
has traveled nil over the world pn!i
rrinjj material for nrtieles on suh-jet-Is
relating to the earth we live on,
what it contains and whero it is to
he found.
National VntUn VMtcil
He is now ninkiiur n- tour f- tlio
national parks of America, and left
yesterday for Olaeierointionnl park,
lib saw Crater InkVfor the firsftithc
on this trip, nndTfoiind there n spec
taele of randciir nnd sublimity ' illi't
ennnot ho eipmlled nnywhere on the
p loins. He was shown the pnrk hy
.Superintendent Will 0. Steel and Ma
jor Cluni, and in an informal deerip
lion of his experiences there declar
ed that peoplu of remote states arc
cumin;; to know and appreciate the
lake more even than the people who
live close at hand.
Klamath lake he described as beiii!j
similar to (he famous Scottish lakes
nud is in u similar M'ltini; of barren
land. Snve for the difference in cli
mate, he said, one could find a strik
ing analogy. What appealed to .MY.
Orosvenor particularly was the wild
bird life on the lake. Thousands upon
thousands of great white pelicans,
blue herons, ducks and smaller b'rds
were swarming over the water, pro
tected us they are by federal and
slit' laws.
Many llinls Seen
On one log raft in the lake he'said
ho saw what appeared to bo thous
ands of these, birds, a sight he would
never forget.
Mr. Orosvenor is preparing a ser
ies of articles for his magazine on the
national parks. While ho was in
Portland he spent a whole forenoon
at the shop of a scenic photographer,
who has pictures of all the vjews he
had recently looked upon. When liu
left he had $1011 worth of pictures of
Crater and Khimalh lakes, which he
plans to reproduce in his magazine.
DING FEAT PROVES
U.S.
A rather novel and daring feat to
prove the strength and durability of
the United States Tire company inner
tubes, was pulled off in Xew York re
cently when one of tho members of
the adveitising crew was lowered
i'rom the sixth floor of tho First Na
tional Hank building with his entire
weight held up by ono of tho inner
tubes mudo by this company.
A ropo was rigged on a pulley out
onu of tho front windows, nud to this
ropo was fastened tho rubber tub",
after the operator had securely belted
it around his waist. When ho swung
out olear from all support his entire
weight wns held by tho rubber tub
ing, which easily held him until he
could be lowered to the ground.

PUTUOGItAD.'Aug. 2.V A vivid
story of the German effort to land
troops In Pernau, In tho northeast
corner of the Gulf of Illga, Is told
by a IliiRslan official from Pernau
who has reached here.
"At 0:00 o'ciock on the. evening of
tho IHth, while tho elite of tho fiO,
000 people of tho city wero assembled
In tho naval park listening to'n hand
concert" the official relates. A po
llcOiunu ordered them to disperse.
It was then noticed that a German
ship far away to the horizon. She
remained for soma time making ob
servations. It appeared later that
tho Itusslans had signalled tho ship
to halt, not knowing her nationality,
and that signals questioning the ves
sel as to this point remained unan
swered. "The people did not become
alarmed until cannonading was heard
at sea and that German ships ho
came visible. Three of thorn seemed
to be llgbt cruisers and foTirrwaro
largo transports;'.' .1.
"Soon tho batteries on shoro
opened fire on tho German squadron,
TJie Gorman ships replied and tho
continuous ronr of the guns on both
sides coalesced Into a mighty chaos
of sound.
"The German ships wero throo
miles away, being tinablo to reach
nearer on account of tho shallow
water. Their flro was Inaccurate.
Nobody In Pernau was killed, but a
few persons In Oretols loxt their
lives. Tho rnllway lines wero slight
ly damaged but wero quickly re
paired. "Tho Gormans fired uninterrupted
ly from 1 1 o'clock In tho ovonlng un
til I! o'clock tho noxt morning."
