about the unique initiation cele-
bration Of the Oregon W. o. w.
At the extreme end OF u deep
ravine ON the side of Mount Tabor
they built q big platform and
hung it round with many colored
electric lights aud Chinese Lam
terms. A terraced roadway cir
cled the end of the ravine, aud the
platform fits snugly into this nat
ural gulch about ten feet below
the roadway. Above the roadway
rose the steep walls of the ravine,
ovcrhung with pine. spruce and
fir that fairly embowered it, max
ing the most perfect natural am-
pitheatre. During the day "a
general public picnic was held in
the grove and the street car lines
carried 10000 people to the hill
top. A barbecue. sports, music
and speeches by such eminent folk
as Mayor Row OF Portland, and
Governor Geer Of Oregon. made
up the days program. But
these were all the commonplaces
of picnics. The unique things
were the degree team drills in
uniform on this platform in the
ravine in the afternoon and then,
at night. with all the general pub
lie excluded, the initiation Of the
1900 new members by moonlight,
aud lamplight in the glen. A
picket line Of 800 sentrymen vas
thrown ont around the hillside n

the order from the sacreligious
gaze Of the uninitiated: but ANYONE q
who was there in the afternoon
and saw tho hillside Of the ravine
covered with the seated crowd
adorned in all the bright hues OF
summer muslins and summer
millinery could imagine what the
night picture would be. when the
slints Of sunshine through the
trees gave away to the brilliancy
Of the myriad electric aud other
lights, lighting up the overhnng-
ing verdurc and the gorgeous
uniforms. In the competition drill
of the afternoon there was de-
