Darlington, Mho Planned the Denver Fountain Few In United States Equal to It. Salems electric fountain, which Is being erected In the center of Wlllsou park, is nearlng completion and In all probability will be In operation before the first of August. When this be quest of Mrs. E. M. Walte to her townspeople is fully Installed, Salem will be In a clasB by Itself aa far as fountains are concerned, for there Is no other display west of Denver that !1 compare with It In point of leauty. When in full operation, almost 600 jets of water will rise from the basin of the fountain to a varying height of up to 50 feet, throwing about 23,000 gallons of water Into the, air per hour. To supply that amount of water It promised to be such a drain on the supply of the Salem water company that the company . at its own expense Installed an electric pump so that the water may be UBed over and over again, the agreement with, ther city being that water for all the fountains erected by the city Is to be furnlBhed free by the water company. The rising waters will be colored in brilliant hues more vivid than the brlghest of fireworks. Red, light and dark blue, green, orange, lavander and white will mingle In a profusion of beauty at the height of the tree tops and drop back Into the fountain only to cascade over Into the outer basin. P. W. Darlington, of Philadelphia, is building the fountain. He has In stalled Blmilar ones, both greater and smaller, In most of the civilized conn tries of the globe. The biggest one In the world Is In Crystal Palace, London, but what Mr. Darlington con siders his masterpiece so far. Is In Denver, which has been reproduced in Mexico City, Mexico. The Denver display has eleven funnels with an 8000 candle power light under each one. It can be manipulated Into twel ve designs and countless combinations of colors. It throws a sheet of water 100 feet high and 80 feet broad and consumes 240,000 gallons of water per hour. It is operated for two periods ; aging.

"Because of, Oregon Industries, our policy now Is its size, envlroment and general ar rangement It Is the most, beautiful man-made display in the world," says Mr. Darlington. The work on the fountain has at tracted a great deal of Interest by the Inquiring public, who make frequent Inspection of the work to determine, if possible, the mechanism of the fountain. Work Is progressing satis factorily, although some delay has been occasioned by backward weather conditions, and the failure of some of the pa 17s to arrive on time. Left lllm the Price.

THE FAIR'S GREATEST FEATURE MADE IN OREGON- PRODUCTS GET GREAT ROOST STATE INSTITU TIONS TO USE THEM FINE PRO GRAM IX EVENING COL. MOOD SPEAKS TONIGHT. The Manufacturers' Exposition ol the Marlon County Industries has been admittedly the greatest feature of the Cherry Fair, surpassing even the wonderful displays of the royal fruit itself. The promotion of the Made in Oregon Idea has received a wonderful Impulse, and at least 50, 000 people have seen 'the display and been entertained by the evening pro grams, and the manufacturers them selves, with their representatives, their demonstration and their litera ture. State Officials Interested. The exposition was visited by many state officials and the heads of state, city and county Institutions. They took notes of what they saw, and on the opening day Supt. Stetner made the announcement that the state board had decided to give the Oregon fur niture manufacturers at Portland an opportunity to equip the two new state buildings at Salem and the hew asy lum at Pendleton. This means sever al hundred thousand dollars of state revenues kept at home. This was backed up by a conference of Secre tary of State Olcott and the furni ture manufacturers at Portland. New Railway Policy. Supt. D. W. Campbell, who has charge of 1400 miles of railroad In Oregon, and the eonstructlon of hun dreds of miles of new lines In this state, has taken np the matter of a Made in Oregon purchasing policy for the lines under his control.

The second day was a great success, In spite of the depressing effect of no attendance from Portland. It seems the only effect of the great Elks' gath ering at Portland was to take thou sands of people away from Gladstone Chautauqua, and from the Salem Cherry Fair, and bring nothing In re turn.

The line formed at Marlon Square, proceeding south on Commercial street and then covering the route outlined. Heading the pa rade was the Fifth Regiment band of San Francisco, brought to Salem for this purpose by the committee, of which Ceo. F. Codgers is chairman. The fifty men In uniforms of blue with heavy gold braid and epaulettes were seated on three decorated Fed eral motor trucks, and played the most splendid military music ever heard In this city. They were greet ed with outbursts of cheers as the procession moved up the street. Next came the governor's car, In which were seated Governor West, Mayor Lachmund, President Sargent Treasurer Walton and Secretary Paulus, of the Cherry Fair cotnnilt teee, and Secretary Hofer, of the Board of Trade. After the parade Governor West started on his horse buck ride to Boise Idaho.

The prizes awarded for the best SPLENDID OF FLOATS PARADE A MILK LONG AND COU PONED OF THE FINEST AND MOST AUTISTIC FLOATS EVER SEEN IN THE NORTHWEST. The parade yestorday was cortulnly a great success, and never In Salem's history has there been such an assem blage of beautiful floats. Neither time nor money were spared In making the decorations the very beat. Artistic designs and rich coloring were In ev idence In almost every vehicle In the big parade, and there waa surely a lot of them. They were too many, and there was too much worth minute de scription, for any attempt even being made to mention them In detail. The King's float was grand and that of the Queen was the handsomest thnt ever gladdened the eyes of Bnlemltes. The committee on awarding prizes certainly had a difficult Job, for there were so many beautiful floats that few would agree with any one else's selec tion as to the best, or most beautiful, and would, perhaps, doubt their own judgment on second thought, The Cheuiawa Indian school won the first prize for the best decorated and most original float, or floats, for It had several, and all good. The Vnlti'd Artisans captured the second prize, with a beautiful and ar tlntlc. miniature slate capital, build ing. The roof and dome of the build ing were made of red cherries, which gleamed and glowed as the aim glanced from them like great big red rubles. It caused many expressions of admiration as It 'passed through the long line of sightseers that filled the sidewalks. The Degree of Rebecca was sward ed third prize, and deserved It, too, or more, for the float was one of the very prettiest possible, ' Haleiu's Flouring Mills, Kalem Hardware store and Barnes' Cash store floats all came In for favorable mention, and this would and should Include every float In the parade birring the steam roller which was In a claes by Itself. S HOT IB DECORATED THE DAY decorated cars in J he automobile pa rade today are as follows: R. B. Fleming, first. A. N. Bush, Becond. John Roberts, third. Mrs. Lenta Westacott, fourth. R. P.

Due lo the energetic efforts of Ivan Martin, who has recently made his home In Salem, the California Fifth regiment band, that has taken the first prize over about 30 bands at the Elks carnival at Portland, came up to be the crowning musical event of the Cherry Fair. They arrived on the Oregon Electric limited, and were escorted to the Marlon hotel by Mr. Martin and C. Cooke Pattotn They were Immediately waited on by Chairman Geo. F. Rodgers of the au tomobile parado, who placed three federal trucks with seats nt the head of the purude for them. An Old Salcmlta. The leader of the band is Geo.

The Judges were paralyzed and It was more of a guess than anything else as to prize winners, There were 250 entries, and over 50 decorated vehicles were in the line. The par ade was slow getting off, and In spite of police assistance, and the poll re i.tniggled nobly to keep the selfish ness of the crowds from spoiling the whole affair. The Kalein Military bund headed the procession, and II wound slowly up Court to Winter, then baek to Church, then down to the place for Judging at the First M. E. church. Tho committee In charge of the Buby show were Messrs. Mc- tillU:lirlHt and Cross, Mesdames T. C, j Hinlth, Jr., Shucking, C. I McNury, Dick, and Mrs. John Suvage.
