 patch from Baker City, Ore, pub lished yesterday announced that a To- cent subscription was to be started in
 Oregon and extend over the country for the purpose of raising a sum,
 which probably would aggregate $SO0,- 0O0 to be presented to Miss Alice
 Roosevelt on the occasion of her mar riage to Representative Nicholas LOngworth. The president disapproVes of the proposition, as is indicated by the following statement issued from the White House today:
 "The presidents attention having been called to the dispatch from Bak- CT City, Ore, to the effect that a sub scription was about to be started for a wedding present for Miss Alice | Roosevelt, the president stated that while he appreciated this evidence of good will he hoped nothing of the kind would be undertaken.

 Concerning the Indians they furnish ed their share of the entertainment, compensating fully for their free ad- mission at the gate. There were hun dreds of them present though not so many as some had anticipated. It was explained to the carnival management that the Indians were admitted free at the gate and as a class had little mon- ey. whereupOn a special rate of five cents was made to them for admission into the stadium, the management al ways desiring to do the right thing in such cases. And the look on the faces of many of the Indians as they were admitted was enough to repay the management. Some would step inside the grounds, then stop and stand look ing in one direction and then another, as though appalled, by the multiplicity of things that attracted their attention and also embarrassed by a guilty feel

 It has been decided that the better plan for mentioning awards will be to wait until the fair ends, then publish all awards together in one issue. The Republican will publish the complete list of prize winners at the very earliest practicable date, probably Sunday or Monday morning.
 THE COOKING.
 Tn the big exhibition hall the par tiular event yesterday was the judg- ing in the culinary or domestic science division of the woman's department, which is presided over by Mrs. l.. W. Collins The chief contest was that over bread baked from Ruby Flour, the manufacturers of the flour the PhOe . nix Flour Mills, having offered three cash prizes. The winners in this con- test were Miss Ida Welch, first; Mrs. Dwight B. Heard, second and Miss Jennie B. Roberts, third. There was q nice display of pies, cakes, etc, and too numerous for individual mention. There is one exhibitor however who is entitled to special mention. Her name was not given out for at the time the awards rad not been made by the judges. but those who know her per sonally will know her identity by her work for it is in a class by itself and is that of ornamental cakes. The lady resides in SolOmonville and is seventy six years old. But she is by no means too old to bake a fancy cake. The specimen is too unique for description but it is unquestionably work of art the delicate ornamentation of white frost being worked, into leaves, wreaths roses and numerous other flowers and a sugar fabric around the edges al most like lace trimming. She has an other cake that has the initials repre- senting the Arizona Territorial Fair, or the top and that is beautifully orna- mented. These cakes were brought from SOlomonville in a wagon during the last rainy weather so one car imagine what efforts were put forth

Yesterday was 9 sort of miscel- laneous day at the fair. There were numerous features but no single one was of overshadowing interest. It was Indian day and of course the red man was the feature most exploited. He did his full part in furnishing the amusement of the day, but it was inn possible to get the collective Indian pulled together and worked off the program in the forenoon, and the best exhibitions came in the afternoon. The dress parade of the Phoenix Indian school and the half mile race for In dian policemen, were the two program Indian events that took place in the forenoon.
