PRATTLE, Wash., Juno I. With Impres

Anr the Alaska Yukon-Pacific exposition,
VWch will be hold hre In 199. oppnlng
Just two years from date. The day was a
holiday. Seattle presented a gala appear
ance and amid the blare of trumpets, the
marching of a military pag-pant. Inspiring
peaches and banqueting, the Inauguration
of active work on the Pacific World-! fair
Was celebrated.
Many prominent men mayors, leglsatora,
governors and state offlala, attended the
ceremonies and visitors from nearby cities
were present The Hon. John Barrett, di
rector of the International Bureau of Amer
ican Republics, as the personal representa
tive of President Roosevelt, was the prin
cipal speaker of the day and the guest
of honor, '
President John Edward Chllberg of the
exposition, after appropriate remarks,

the band played "The Star Spangled Ban
ner" and the thousands In attendance
cheered. The other addressea were deliv

Hold Big Military Parade.
The ceremonies, started with a big mili
tary parade at noon. It passed through the
principal downtown streets and ended at
the railroad station, where a special train
was taken' for the exposition grounds.
It Is .thought by the management that
two years of strenuous work on the HO.OnO,
000 world's fair will find It .completed In
every detail by June 1, 1909, the opening
day. The purpose for which the exposition
Ik held la considered to be worthy of the
expenditure of so large a sum. Briefly, Its
primary object Is the exploitation of the
resource and potentialities of the Alaska
and Tukon territories, in the United States
and Canada, and to make known and
foster the vast Importance of trade on
the Pacific ocean and with the countries
bordering On It.
The exposttloa site, which embraces the
unused portion of the campus of the Uni
versity of Washington, Is 250 acres In ex
tant and borders for more than a mile and
a half on Lakes Union and Washington.
The Oiympla and Cascade mountains are
In sight and unobstructed view will be
had of the peaks of Mount Maker and
Mount Ranter, Now that ground has been
broken, work will start Immediately on
tha landscaping and laying out of roads,
plasas and circles. The administration
building will be erected at once In order
that tha management may have head
quarters oh, tha grounds. The exposition
plan oall for .about twelve large' exhibit
places, arranged In a unique manner.
Address of Mr. Barrett.
In his address Mr. Barrett said In part:
"The president of the United States sends
slnoara greetings to Besttle and the great
northwest on the occasion cf ground break
ing for tha AJaska-Tukon-Paclflc exposi
tion. Ha wishes you success In your un
dertaking and expresses regret that the
pressure of public business' prevents the
acptance of your Invitation that he or
J4 member of hla- cabinet should be
nr Mont. I am moved- to express the hope'
hat under the - Paclflo division of your
xposltlon you may see' fit to invite the
anlclpatlon of those Latin-American
lataa that border on the Faelflo ocean
and whose growing ports can Ve easily and
directly reached by VMaela sailing from
Puget sound, tha Columbia river and San
Franclaoo harbor.
"If we do. not study, exploit and master
tha foreign oommerc of the adyanclng,
ambitious nations of Latin America, Europe
certainly will, and' the Panama canal will
become a waterway for. the European and
Aslatlo merchant fleets rather for our
own."
KELLER STILL IN HIDING
Chief Donahae Vexed at Reno Police
for. Letting Him Get
Away.

No tieflhlts Information has yet been re
ceived by the Omaha polloe regarding the
whereabouts of Captain Keller, the former
army officer, who la accused of having
windled a number of Omaha people out
of varying sums. Chief Ponahue said Sat
urday the coast towns are on the alert
and the alarm la well spread through tho
west and he la Inclined to the belief that
Keller Is lying low In some obscure place
In oris of tha mountain states. Chief
Donahue Is also vexed with the Reno
(Nev.) police for their failure to arrest
Keller, aa they hud his telegram with de
scription before he arrived there, and even
then they allowed him to stay In the city
several days, work a number of cltlsens
for about 17,600, and then get out of the
city.
That our American forests abound to.

CROWNING 0FQUEEN OF MAY
Large Crowd at Streets of Paris to
Witness the Interesting
Ceremony. The crowning of the Queen of 'the May
was the feature of the Streets of Paris
at the Auditorium Friday night, and tho
event was witnessed, by about 3,000 people.
At 8:80 a'olock the main floor -was cleared
of spectators and a procession formed to
escort Miss Anna Weitzel, the Queen of
May-elect to her throne. The throne was
erected on the stage Just beneath the May
pole, and was beautifully decorated with
flowers. The procession formed In the
back of the Auditorium, and headed by a
battalion of the High School cadets, fol
lowed by the queen, the two princesses
and the children who took part In the
May-pole dance, marched to the muslo of
the orchestra the length of the great
Auditorium to the stage, where, with Fred
A. Nash officiating, the' queen was es
corted to the throne and crowned.
Before the march to the throne was be
gun the queen was presented with a dia
mond ring as the first prize in the con
test, and the princesses, Mis5 Kate
Kocliem, the winner of the second prize,
was presented with a beautiful pearl neck
lace, and Miss Rosaline Hall, who was
awarded third prize, received a gold brace
let set with diamonds. After tho crowning
ceremony came the May-pole dance.
Swinging, colored ribbons, which were at
tached to the top of the May pole, nine
little girls becomingly costumed danced
gracefully around the throne upon either
aide of which stood the princesses. This
was perhaps tho best feature of the even
ing and was enthusiastically applauded by
the throng of spectators.
After the May-pole dance three little
girls. Addle Fogg, Gretchen Langdon and
Kdna Bilz did some artistic Spanish and
French dancing. Addle Fogg's tambourine
dance made a decided hit.
The Queen of May wore a pearl gray
brocaded silk with spangled net, a court
train, of gray velvet heavily embroidered
with gold, with wide borders of ermine,
borne by two little-girls. Upon her head
she wore a wreath of white flowers and
carried a large boque of 1m. France ros.-s.
Princess No. 1, Miss Kate Kochem, wore
a pink crepe gown and pink gloves and
slippers.
Princess No. t, Miss -Rosaline Hall, wore
pink silk' mull with white lace, and long
pink gloves and pink slippers. Both prin
cesses carried American Beauty roses and
wore pink wreathes in their hair.
Tonight will be tha last night of the
Streets of Paris and In point of attendance
it is expected to eclipse all previous
records.

CHARGED WITH SELLING ON SUNDAY
lllah School tlndrntu Present "!hr
Stoops lo Conquer" to m Large
.tmlienre In Audltorlam
of High School.
The Board of Fire and Police Commis
sioners revoked the first license under the
policy pursued by tbe new board, last
nlRht. This was the license of Rernard
Krcbs, who runs a saloon on Railroad ave
nue and Madison stre t. He has ordinarily
borne a good reputation with the police.
The evidence ' produced was conclusive In
the minds of the board m. -inters that' the
law had been Infringed. The evidence was
chiefly that of Detective P. II. Shields, who
made the arrest In the case. He- iald he
had watched men going In and coming out
of the place for two hours before h forced
an entrance. When he entered he found
men drinking beer and one of these rushed
out the sldo door, carrying some liquor with
him. The 'officer captured some of the
liquor and preserved It. All of the members
of the family strenuously denied that any
beer was either sold or given away In tho
place. The brother of .Bernard Krebs and
his father and mother testified that they
live In the rooms attached to tho rear of
the saloon and that several people came
to the door to buy prks of Mrs. Krebs,
Mrs. Krebs. sr., declared that her husband
was sick and that he was drlnkjng some
beer with the hope of being benefited. Ber
nard Krebs himself testified that he was
at home In his own home fully half a block
away and knew nothing of the things which
went on In the rooms.
The evidence of the defense did not sat
isfy the board and they passed a resolution
revoking the license.. Tills means a severe
loss to Krebs, having sold lWuor under the
new license only two weeks. The arrest
was made Sunday, May 19, and since that
time the saloon hns been closed. There Is
some talk of an appenl to the district court,
but this Is almost Impossible, for the rea
son that the evidence In the case was not
preserved. There Is nothing to ,'present to
the court by way of evidence to tx re
viewed. The board -members all expressed
regrets that the penaltvwas so severe, but
they Insisted that tl)e saloon men had all
had due notice of the requirements and
could find no Just ground for complaint.
The board further hoped that this one les
son would be sufficient to convince tho sa
loon men of the fact that there must bo no
further Infringement of the orders of the
board and the statutes of the state.
Permission was asked for the privilege of
selling liquor In a dance hall during one
dance, but this was denied by the board,
members explaining that If the parties con
ducting the sale should have enemies they
might possibly file complaints, which would
force the board to take action to the In
Jury of the parties, however fair their In
tentions were.
This constituted all the business before
the board and an adjournment was taken.
( High School Drama.
Standing room was at a' premium last
evening at the high school auditorium,

Great care was taken In the staging
and costuming of the play and this helght-
i ened the charm of the performence. Real
talent was exhibited by more than one
of the young actors ana actresses. Among
them, Guy C. Klddoo acted the part of a
crusty squire, who Is taken by Surprise In
his own house and treated to the courtesies
usually accorded to an Innkeeper, In a
manner which at times 'excited roars of
laughter from the audience. Harry De
Toung as Charles Marlow, the hero, who
Is caught In seriously ridiculous circum
stances, exhibited striking contrasts in his
boldness to the supposed landlord and In
fact the father of his lady love, and hla
' excessive timidity in the presence of the
j young woman, who does her very best
to help him to the inevitable proposal. Her
whimsical play, with his embarrassment
reached, .perhaps. Its climax In the first
scene oi the second act, when she Jauntily
accepted his offer to escort her and hung
her scarf on his arm, with which he pa
rades away thinking It. Is her hand, being
too: bashful to once look in her direction
Miss Ann Rowley played the part of Miss
Kate Hardcastle with such ease as to sug
gest the professional performances.
The work of preparation and rehearsal
has kept the young people engaged for
many weeks and they are heartily glad
that the crucial night Is passed.

OMAHA MAN AT JAMESTOWN
R. C Jtrehlovr Interested In Con
fctrurllon of Several Eiposl-
A.
(Ion JBnlldlnga.
R. C.. Strehlow, a prominent Omaha con
tractor and builder, has Just returned from
the Jamestown exposition, where he built
nearly two-thirds of the bulldlnss on the
exposition grounds, Including the large
group of government buildings. The work
done by Mr. Strehlow represented con
tracts aggregating over ISOO.WO and nearly
all. of the Important buildings were built
under his direction. .
Mr. Strehlow built the group of four
large buildings for the government exhibit;
the pure food building; the mines and
medical building; the states' exhibit build
ing, which is one of the largest at the ex
position; the Virginia oullding; the marine
appliances building; the bazar building;
tho palace of commerce; the building for
the dirigible balloon exhibit; the New Jer
sey state building and all the entrances to
the exposition grounds on Hampton roads.
Mr. Strehlow first began his career In the
construction of exposition buildings at the
Transmieslsslppl exposition held in Omaha
in 1898.
"This talk about the Jamestown exposi
tion not being completed Is hurting the
exposition lmmeasureably and Is not in ac
cordance with the facts. Nearly all the
exposition building are completed, notwith
standing the statements recently published,
and all the streets on the grounds are
paved with the exception of one," said
Mr. Strehlow. ...
"It is true that the exhibits are not all
Installed, but the government exhibits are
an exposition In themselves and were ready
several days before the opening of the
exposition. The large pier will not be
completed before next August, but the
show will be In full blast within thirty
days and it Is going to be a van pretty
snd Instructive exposition."
Mr. Strehlow went to Jamestown last
August and Intends to return next week to
close up his business with the exposition
management.

Edwin T. Swobe, agenoy dlreotor of the
New York Life Insurance company, for the
last few years, has resigned his position
and Is promoting a Nebraska company to
write the minor lines of Insurance, such as
personal accident, health, liability, fidelity,
surety bonds, plate glass, steam boiler,
burglar, automatic Bprlnkler, etc. There
Is said ' to be an excellent opportunity for
a western company of this nature, as
there is no stock company writing thla
class of business located west of Chicago.
The premium collections of the minor
lines of Insurance In the state of Nebraska
last year exceeded 1400,000 all of which went
to foreign corporations.
