As Told By. Chas., H. Schroen,
One Of The Party.
[Continued from last week]
Further than this Miss Julia Gordon, daughter of Mr. John Gordon of
this place, a teacher in the public
schools of Seattle, went. to much
trouble in showing us some:-more of
the interesting sights, one of which
was taking us to the Assay ■ Office
where a friend *of hers is employed,
who.took particular pains to show us
thru. We wore also pleased to meet a
chum of hers, a teacher in the same
school, from Missouri, "who had to be
shown." The next day we had the
privilege tp visit the Cruiser "California" which steamed into the harbor
the evening before with torpedo boats
and several other cruisers, with 800 of
Uncle Sam's "Boys in Blue-' on board.
The evening program was left to Dr.
Mordon, the theatrical  man   ofj the

party, who thought "Polly of the Circus" was very good. Ask the Dr. . >
I must not forget to mention our
visit td the Exposition grounds which
were fine, due to its* natural scenery,
myself having measured a tree 171 feet
in circumference. The most interesting exhibits to us were in the Alaskan
and Hawaiian.buildings, seeing one
piece Of metal' containing 98 per cent
? of copper. The Sugar house representing the capital pf Hawaii was: a
masterful piece of arE The forestry
building with its large timbers made
one think how destructive the welding of the ax has been to the forests of
this country, which if not looked after
will soon be a thing of the past.
August 23, at 8:15 a. m., we said
gaod-bye to the wonderful city cf
Seattle. Our first stop was Tacoma
where we made a short call on Dr.
Morden's.friend, Carl S. Mills of Macon. Leaving for Centralia we made
another short stop calling - on the
Millet family, who- gave, us a cordial
welcome. Mrs. Frank, Miller, formerly Miss Lulu Bliss, made many inquiries as to Saline and her old friends.
Mr. Henry Miller,, a brpther of Alfred
Miller, will be remembered by* the
older residents as one of the best auctioneers in this section. .W. M. Fowler stayed over until the rext morning when with Mr. Frank Miller joined as at Chehalis where Mr. Geo.
Walker had an auto in readiness to
show us the surrounding country
which we thoroughly enjoyed. The
eighty acre field of hops was quite a
Sight to us.. After •returning to the
city George showed us thru tho condensed milk factory which pays put to
the farmers thousands of dollars every
year. The Bank pf Chehalis is ene ef
the largest in the state, having, $1,500,-
000 on deposit. George certainly has
made good since leaving Saline, having a fine business and home, a popular man in the city, having twice
held the office of Mayor and at the
present time holding the offi.e of
President of the Washington State
Fair Association. Bidding him goodbye and taking another last look .. at
the snow-capped Mt.- Rainier, which is
1400 feet high, we boarded the train
for Portland, Oregon. The scenery
along here was very much the same* as
that going into Seattle, with the exception of the largest tile and paving
Brick factory in the State of Washington and the thousands and thousands
pflog8 in the Columbia River. Port-
jand wo found to be a 'hustling 6ity.
It is claimed that the finest lot of draft
horses are seen here. From Portland
Heights you get a most beautiful view
of the city and surrounding country,
it is also called the Rose City, having
such beautiful .rose gardens and* rose
fences. The Forestry building on the
old expos.: ion grounds, .we thought,
outdid the. one in Seattle in some respects, having many logs of uniform
size, 57 feet high aud 5 feet in diameter. Here is where we went thru a
large saw mill, capacity 130,000 feet
per day.
At 9:30 p. m. we took.a sleeper thru
to San Francisco, the city ruined by an
earthquake a few years agp. Passing
thru the rich Rogue River and Sacramento Valleys and crossing the Sis-
k'yon Mountains, we reached Mt.
Sbosta 6:45 p. m. It is said by tourists
whorhave traveled Switzerland that it
exceeds the scenery- there":'" The engineers ■_•! tbis read figured months
how tp cross the mountain,- when a boy
fourteen years of age explained the
theory and received only $100, which~|
was worth hundreds of thousands of
dollars to tbe railroad company, , At
times we can almost shake hands with
the engineer, going-around the curves.
On reaching San Francisco we were
agreeably surprised to meet Bobert
Seeger of Saline, who started right
out to show us some of the interesting
sights of the city.... A straD^er could
hardly believe there had been an
earthquake seeing the fine buildings,
however, in some sections of the city
you get some idea what a terrible disaster it must have been. While visiting Golden Gate Park we saw a 'Holland wind mill, the wheel being 120
feet in diameter. Tn the. evening we
went thru Chinatown, notorious thrii-
out the TJnited States. The next day
we went thru the TJ. S.Mint. The
first .room we entered they were pouring silver into bars about twelve inches long; > from there it goes thru sixteen or eighteen rollers until it becomes the thickness of 'a half dollar
piece, the length being about sixteen
feet; from there it goes into the stamp
ing machine, what is left goes back to
the melting room; next comes the
polishing room; the last the sorting
room, every ounce must be accounted
for. Tbis mint coins dimes, quarters,
halves and dollars, also gold, this particular iday they happened to be coining half dollars, capacity $100,000 per
day. A man at each entrance had a
six shooter in readiness, so we took no
chances in getting away with any.
Mr. Harrington, a nephew of Dr.
Morden, living here, took us to the
Fairmont Hotel, located on Nob Hill,
huilt at a cost of • $8,000,000 and employs 380 servants, From this point
you get the best view of tha city and
harbor. Not far from he^e is the government reservation where 4,000 TJ. S.
soldiers.are stationed.
We then left for Los Angeles over
the coast line taking us nearly two
days and two nights, passing thru the
richest part of California we saw thousands of acres pf sugar beets with ten-
horse 'teams hauling them. Going
thru Santa Barbara 8 p. in., we arrived
at Los-Angeles at 12 p. m. -.We were
all taken up with this city, so spent
more time here than in any other
place. Could write a whole newspaper on Los Angeles and suburbs. John
Cotton, nephew of Will Fowler, took
great pleasure in showing us some of
the largapalm gardens, private driveways and parks. We also met, Will
Fowler, brother of John Fowler of this
place, who thinks Los Angeles is the
only place to live, and meeting several
other Saline friends who think likewise. This is the place where Will
Fowler had trouble with the waiters'
on insisting that his strawberries and
pie be brought first. Here is where
they eat strawberries eleven months
of the year. From here we visited
Pasadena, Long Beach and San Gabriel Mission built in 1771, visiting the
Cans ton Ostrich farm where you can
buy plumes as high as $125.00 each,
We passed thru largo orange and
lemon groves Returning we took a
boat over to the Cataline Islands and,
taking a ride in a glass bottom boat,
we saw the submarine gardens,- a most
wonderful sight. On returning to the
city we saw schools ot the Leaping
Tunas flying fish and o whale in the
distance spurting water. . At Sawlette
we visited the Soldiers Home, a beautiful place for the old soldiers to spend
their last days, just now there are
2500 of them.
Leaving for Salt Lake City, we
crossed the desert lands where nothing
could be seen but cactus plants which
looked like fruit trees in the distance.
The rain storm made it more pleasant
traveling'thru the desert which otherwise would have been hot and dusty.
Crossing the Sierra Nevada Mountains
we arrived at Salt Lake City Sunday
morning at 7:30^ we started at once for
S It Lake' to take a bath as we had
been told there was no danger of- sinking. We wanted to see for ourselves
and found that we could float like a
cork, a good place for new beginners
to learn how to swim. In. the afternoon we went to the Mormon Tabernacle where a special service on Mormonism .was held for the tourists.
The Temple we were not allowed to
enter, being for good  Mormons  only.

Foreigners at German Universities.
The number of foreign students at
the German universities, -which, owing
to the increased severity in the conditions of admission, had* declined last
year to 3,594, has _-isen to 3,921-* chiefly because this is the first summer in
which foreign women could matriculate at all universities. Tbe numbers
include 1,578 Russians, 674 Austro-
Hungarians", 306 Swiss, 155 English,
154 Bulgarians, 102 Rumanians, (58
Servians, 60 French, 298 Americans,
175 Asiatics and 4 Australians. Of
these 1,181 entered for medicine. Berlin and Leipsic" are now the favorite
universities instead of Heidelberg,
which formerly headed the list
Health And Ueauty Aid.
Cosmetics and lotions will not clear
your complexion of pimples and blotches like Foley's Orino Laxative, for
indigestion, stomach and liver trouble
and habitual constipation. Cleanses
the system and is pleasant to take.
