Poim.AjU ) , Oro. , July S. [ Special Corro-
ppondenco of TIIK 13ir..J Portland , the most
eubstantlnl city on the Pacific coast , not even
executing Snn Francisco , Is now making
rndld strides In the march of progress. By
& vote of the people the three cities of Port ,
land , East Portland and Alblna have been
consolidated Into ono town , the population of
which In 80,000 , in round numbers. Portland
proper lies on the west sldo of the beautiful
"Wllllamotte rlvor , which at this point Is over
flftcon hundred feet wldo nnd fifty feet deep.
On the cast sldo are Kast Portland and
Alblna , connected with Portland proper by
three bridges nnd two ferries. Electrlo
Btroot railways , atoam motors and cable
road.i unlto the three suotlons of the consoli
dated city and numerous charming suburbs
1 know of no city In the country that has amore
moro complete or extensive system of street
railways. Portland proper lies on n sloping
plateau and rcachoa back to a range of
heights , the summits of which are being
rapidly built up with handsome and palatial
liomosi overlooking n scene of uncn.uallcd and
picturesque magninconuo. Prom Portland
heights , which are reached by a cable ratl-
way up an Incline that almost makes ono
dizzy , the observer's eye takes in n grand
ween. Below lies the busy city of Portland
with Its many beautiful streets and
yams , and slowly flawing towards the
ooa und Into the majestic Columbia
tbo rU'al of tbo Hudson so far as scenery Is
concerned , Is the Willamette river , Ilka a
streak of shining silver , bordered with a
fringe of green. On'tho east , located on a
peninsula between the Willnmotto nnd the
Columbia , are East Portland nnd Alblna ;
farther to the cast are Sunnysldo and Mount
'Xabor , two most delightful suburbs , the lut-
tor being on a high hill overlooking the Co
lumbia. To the east about fsoventy-llvo
miles Is the famous Mount Hood with IU
cvorlnstlng snow-peak rising to the height of
11,034 leot nbovo the level of the sea. It is a
dormant or oxtlnct volcano of the Cascade
Tango. On ono of Its sides Is n nearly ver
tical precipice 7,000 foot high. Mount Hood
is partly covered with forciits of plno nnd fir.
A year ago , on the night of tbo Fourth of
July , n display of fireworks was plvon from
tbo summit of Mount Hood nnd was plainly
visible In Portland. To the northeast of
Portland about sixty miles Is Mount Adams ,
0.570 feet high , and in tlie same direction and
nbout the same distance may bo seen Mount
SU Uclotis , which looms up to the height of
1U.OUO foot , a domo-shapod peak of tbo Cas
cade range , whoso summit Is covered with
perpetual snow. It U called an nctivo - volcano
cano , and was in n state of eruption in 184 , ' ) ,
but has ceased to omit lava , what grander
BUbJcct than this marvellously picturesque
combination can the artlstdcslroi I venture
the assertion that its equal cannot bo found
onywhcro on the face of this diversified
earth. I cannot do tbo sccno Justice. If I
could , I would not hesitate to claim descrip
tive powers of moro than ordinary merit ,
The grand panorama must bo soe'n to bo
appreciated.
TUB CT.IMATB
of Oregon Is peculiar to ono who has been
accustomed to tbo four seasons. Tboro nro
really but two seasons hero tno rainy and
tbo dry , the former being the winter and the
latter the summer. It rains from October to
May , * but thU year the month of Juno was
included In the rainy season. Umbrellas and
"Mackintoshes" are In bin demand during
tbo rulny period T'c-oplo bore do not as a
rule call It rain , but mist. The Oregon
mist comes down In drops Inflnltesslmnlly
email , and it takes a great deal
of mist to thoroughly soak you. Such n
thing as a droncblng rainfall , such as eastern
Nebraskais blessed with , Is indeed a rarity
'lioro. Thunder and lightning are rare
atmospheric novelties in Oregon , nnd cyclones
nro still rarer. But I was out in tbo
country tbo other any and saw a strip
througn a pine forest where Immense trees
bad noon pulled UD by the roots and laid low.
It was tbo result'of some tornado of a lone
time ago. Nobody know when It occurred" ,
but It wns evidence of a heavy blow here at-
omo remote period. Just now wo are having
the most perfect woathor. The moroury
Indicates , In every well bo.havcd thermometer ,
c nbout 75 degrees of heat on an average.
This certainly is very acceptable weather for
July , uid I urn told that it will bo about tbo
amo In August. Why anyone should wish
to go to the seashore from Portland U what
puzzles mo , but people will go all the same
Imply because it is tbo "fad" I suppose.
Wo have numerous seaside resorts
Bt the mouth of the Columbia
nnd the fashionable pcoplo patronize
them for about two months July and Au
gust and go In bathing In the Pacific , even
if they do get chilled through nnd through.
Magnificent steamers run between Portland
nnd Astoria , and nro well patronized.
A&toriu , founded by John Jacob Astor , Is the
seaport of Oregon , but does no business ex
cept lo register vessels bound for Portland ,
11(1 ( miles from tbo ocean. Astoria Is a plaro
of about six thousand people , who depend
mostly on the salmon fishing fleet for their
existence. Every afternoon a fleet of over
live hundred fishing boats sail out from
Astoria to tbo broad mouth 'of the Columbia
in quest of salmon , and the slghtof the whlto
spooks of sails on tbo uosom of the plucld
river Is Indeed novel nnd picturesque. As
toria bus no railroad connection with Port
land , Its only communication being by
Btoamcr. The steamers make fast time not
loss than twenty miles nn hour. But to return
turn to climate. I'll toll vau about
Astoria some ether tlmo , it being -
ing an interesting nnd historic tilaco.
As to tbo cllmato of Portland It Is simply salubrious -
lubrious , exhilarating and full of ozono. It
nuts now llfo In the man who has spent his
best years In the interior. Tbo air Is permo-
> fcted with a refreshing fragrnnco ef fruits
and flowers of all kinds , moro especially of
003C3. This is the laud of roses and no mis
take , and everybody wean n buttonhole
boquet of roses and roseuto countrnanco.-
"VVuen the sun sinks to rest In the calm bosom
of the 1'ucillo tbo fragrant perfume of roses ,
mingled , as It were , with tbo mellow light of
the moor , and tbo moro brilliant illumination
of the electric ttrcct lamps , makes the most
> matter-of-fact person romantic , and as ho
vralks through thoarborad streets ho breathes
in nn atmospnoro that fills uim with a doslro
to llvo a thousand years , and n regret that.
Jlfo is so short. It is a rujuvinuting climate-
in tbo summer. An Oregon sum
mer has no superior. I Imagine that
it Is the kind of a summer that Adam nnd
Kvo enjoyed In the Garden of Eden until
they w n > summarily bounced from that de
lightful spot. Oregon , by the way , is a mod-
cm gnrcleu ot Eden , and people here have an
abundance of apples , as well as ether fruit ,
but notwithstanding the abundance , tbo
prleon nro about the s&mo as In Omaha. The
weather in winter Is rarely cold enough to
make Ice , and In summer Iris not hot enough
to cause much of a demand for it , but never
theless Ice Is a costly luxury. It Is sold nt 1
cent a pound. There nro several artificial Ice
factories hero , besides , considerable natural
Ice la shipped in from Idaho.
UUS1XESS.
Good cllmato Is a very good thing , but I
find very few persons hnra for tholr health.
U'hey nro hero mostly for the almighty
dollar. In many respuiita they coulu
not buvo. found a imicti bettor placa to
Gather in the filthy lucre , Portland Is a
lireat business city. It Is the commercial
metropolis of tbo Pacific northwest. Its
Jobbing business last vear amounted to
tl30,0i)0,000 ) , all done on Front street , which
runs along the water front und is well built
up with four ana llvo story wholosala
homes. Portland's commerce extends allover
ever the Paclllo coast und to Japan and
China. It has the biggest business center of
ony city In tbo world In proportion to Us
sue. One would auppono from It * business
center that it was a pluco ot 250,000 pcoplo
instead of 80,000. it is a seaport , ocean
Btoamors and sailing vessels from nearly all
the perU In tha world coming here la nulto
largo numbers.
cutxesB.
l.lko all pacific coast town It
bus a lnrg Chlncso population.
There nro about four thousand Chinese
here , nnd the majority occupy
elRht or nlno blocks In tno very heart of the
business canter. They have tholr stores or
all kinds , thcntem , joss houses , opium Joints ,
bnzanrs , gambling houses , lottery offices ,
restaurants , otc. Tha ( Jhlnoso quarter Is
always nn Interesting place to visit , nnd
tourists never fall to tnlco it In.
iMUSEMBNTS.
f
Portland Is n great nmnsomont town. The
Mnrqunm Grand thoiitor , costing $ TiOOOOl ) ,
plays tne very host attractions for n vreoic
stand each ; Cudrnv's Is a stock company
theater , producing standard plays every
night In tlio year ; French's Now I'ark thea
ter Is n similar houto , and In nddltlnn thcro
nro half n dozen variety theaters. All these
places of amusement are doing well. The
wonder Is how they can all llvo , but they
llvo all the same nnd make money.
A COSMOl'OUTAJf TOWX.
Portland Is n cosmopolitan city. You meet
people from all pnrts of the world hero.
Tourists nnd glebe trotters make It ono of
tholr principal objective points. Pcoplo from
the cast who como to Portland go to San
Francisco , nnd these who go to San Francisco
como to Portland.
HOTELS.
This city Is well suppled with hotels , ono
of which , the Hotel Portland , Is a palatial
struoturo Intho sliupo of a letter II , seven
stones , occupying an entire block nnd con
taining 700 rooms. It la conducted by ono of
the famous hotel family of. Lolauds. It Is n
credit to the city nnd n big advertisement.
O in a tin would do well to walco up nnd build
such a hotol. She needs it. Henry Vlllard ,
In the height or his Northern Paclllo glory ,
started this hotel nnd got as fnr m the second
story when the memorable collnpso knocked
him out together with the hotol. It was n
black eye for Portland. The Union Pnclllc ,
when it couinlotcd the Oregon Short Line
nnd gathered In the Orogou railway nnd
navigation company's property , scooped In
nlso Vlllard's ruins , as the hotel foundation
wns called. The Union Pacific sold "tbo
ruins" to n syndicate , who about three or
lour years asjo resumed the building of the
hotel , and tin ally completed It. Its cost was
In the vicinity of $1,000,000. The courts nro
spacious and nra ornamented with tropical
plants of nil kinds , nnd I don't think there Is
a moru attractive house In America. It
faros the postofllco , and Just across street
stands the Mnrqunm Grand opera house , an
eight-story structure.
EUILUINO BOO > f.
Portland , by the way , Is having quite n
building boom. Among the most nota
ble structural now going up Is the
Dally Orogonlnn building , nine stories
high , of stone nnd brick , 100 feet square ,
something after the style of TUB HUE
building , nnd absolutely fireproof. The ma
terial la granite for the lirst t < vo stories and
red snndstono and brick for the balance. It
will bo completed next spring and will cost
fiwOjOOO. Another big building now under
way Is the Chamber of Commerce , eight
stories , to cost $ .ViO,000. It wns designed by
1. Hodgson , Jr. , of Omahn who has established
un architect's ofllro here nnd Is doing n land
ofllco business. The foundation of tha Cbam-
be'r of Commcrco has been completed and bids
for the superstructure will bo
opened on Wednesday. numerous
contractors from all parts of the
country are hero to bid , among them being
Arthur Johnson of Omahn , who has the con
tract for the union depot in your city und tbo
electric building of the world's fair In Chi
cago. The latter building will bo S00x rx )
feet nnd will cost $400,000. Johnson feels
pretty confident that ho will secure the Port
land Chnmbcr of Commerce contract. Fred
McConnell , also of Omaha , Is hero to figure
on furnishing the llro-proollng material for
this building. Another notable structure ,
the foundation of whicb Is completed , Is the

000. These uro only a few of tbo many big

Saturday livening.
Ovorflvo hundred people , mostly colored ,
called nt Hoafoy ft , Hoafoy's undertaking
rooms yesterday to have n look nt tha re
mains of Fannlo Tate , the murdered woman.
Ddtoctlvos and pollco were busy hunting
up evidence and tracing the movements of
Price. In the afternoon Sergeant Whalen
nnd County Attorney Mnhouoy visited tbo
scene of the crime and talked with the chil
dren of the dead woman and several other
people who saw the couple together. No now
evidence wan discovered. The stortos told
\vnro the same as printed in Tin ; linn Sun
day morning.
To some pollco officers Prlco admitted that
ho had been nt the Tnto residence in tbo
evening nnd drnnk boor , but donled the
crime. Again the prisoner would deny that
bo had been to the house at nil.
.Unless a confession can bo wrung from the
supposed murderer It will bo hard to obtulii
nbsulute proof of bU guilt , though circum
stantial evidence may convict him.
When tlio body was first discovered It wai
claimed that the prints of linger nnlls were
still dlscoruablo In tbo warm flesh of the
neck. A look at Price's hands shows that ho
has no linger nails to sponk of , .thoy having
boon worn down to the quick by handling
brick.
Coroner Hnrrlgan will probably hold nn
Inquest on tbo body this afternoon. The
doctor stated that ho would probably delay
the inquest until after the preliminary hearing -
ing of the prisoner , in order to loara Just
what evidence there Is against Prlco.
