Sundays Albany Herald says:
j. NJ Sears of Dallas and A. L.
Porter of Norton's arrived in the city
last night from Quartzville where
they surveyed a township of unsur-
veyed timber lands for the govern
ment, spending the past six weeks
at the work. They report the forest
fires southeast of Detroit still raging
and Mr., Sears, who has spent the
greater part of his life in the noun
tains and woods, expressed the con-
viction that the fires would cross
the Cascade countains to the eastern
edge of the reserve before they
would burn themselves out. The
green timber is burning he asserts
and the damage being done is enor-
nous. Yesterday morning at Gates.
the smoke pail was so thick that the
sun at Z a. m, appeared as great
blood-red ball, and on the trail COM
ing into Gates on their way out of the
mountains the smoke was sitting.
The worst fire is on the Linn county
side of the Santiam river and is
spreading in every direction accord
ing to these gentlemen, and nothing
short of a heavy rain will stop the
flames.
Reports from Detroit last evening
were to the effect that near that
place the fires had gone down and
that the men from the sawmills who
had been in the mountains fighting
the fires, had returned to their work.
The fire this side of Berry is still
burning but at that point is doing
little IL any damage.
Reports from the Portland camp
ing parties are to the effect that
they are all in good shape and in no
danger from the fires and that all
of them will conclude their outings
as originally decided upon.

McIntire.DoIe Wedding.

A simple but pretty wedding took
place at the home OF the brides
mother, Mrs. M. J. Dole, on South
Eighteenth street. Sunday, when her
only daughter, Miss Nina M. Dole,
became the bride of Mr.. Alfred II.
McIntire, Rev. p. s. Knight perform
ing the ceremony in the presence of
the immediate families.
The house was beautifully deco
rated.
The bride was gowned In a pretty
costume of grey crepe de chine. She
was unattended.
A wedding luncheon was served at
the close of the ceremony, and the
young couple left for short trip to
Portland and UP the Columbia.
The bride is an Eastern girl, hav-
ing lived In this city but three years.
The groom is the eldest son of Mr..
and Mrs. Wallace McIntire, and was
born and raised In the Capital City.
Fred, as he is more familiarly known,
is popular among a wide circle of
friends. Both are untiring workers
In the Central Congregational
church In East Salem.
They will be at home to their
friends on Eighteenth street after
August 23.

No better evidence of business ac-
tiyity coud be found than the last
quarterly statement OF the United
States Steel cooperation. During the
three months ending June, net earn
ing were over s4O,000.0O0, or two
and a half millions greater than any
other quarter. During the six
months ending June the net profits
were s76,750.000, promising to sur
pass the best previous half-year re-
cord; hence the dividend upon the
common stock. So. far as can be
seen, the steel management appears
TO be amply justified in their conf
dence in the future. The year 1906
Is certain TO be the most prosperous
in it's existence. and hopeful expec-
tations are now INDUCED in for
1907. Fortunately the business
has been managed on a strictly con-
servatiye basis. and these profits
were made In period when prices
were much lower and more reason
able than during the previous boom.
Thus far this great corporation.

ANIMALS
WITH THE
CIRCUS
twenty Four Elephants, and
Some Regular Monkey
and Bab00n Clowns

The menagerie department of the
Forepaugh-Sells circus, which comes
here Wednesday next enjoys, in ad-
dition to its entertaining features, a
wealth of fun and humor. The mon
key cage holds a fascination for
many. There is a Siamese monkey
in cage with several others, who,
for some reason, will have nothing
to do with him. This ostracism ex-
asperated the Siamese and whenever
he got chance he would grab one
of the other by the tail, drag him
all over the high perches and drop
his victim with dull thud.
Mr.. Patterson, who has charge OF
the geological department, is the
owner of a fine watch dog which is
on friendly terms with many of the
animals. Mr.. Patterson has another
pet, a. large Spider" monkey so
tame that he is allowed the freedom
of the menagerie, except at exhibi-
tion hours. Zulu" the monkey,
takes great delight in teasing the
dog. AS soon as the dog settles him
self for doze the monkey will steal
up and give the CANNES tail vici-
GUS tog. OF course, the dog will go
for her. but she will simply wait
till he gets close enough, then leap
over his head and from behind give
his tail another pull.
There is monkey of the baboon
species, that at times will take hold
of the dish in which her food Is
served and put in on her head, as II
1t were a hat. Thus adorned. she
provokes roars of laughter, to her
evident qualification, from the crowd
around her cage. There is another
baboon in Mr.. Patterson's collection
which "got good and even" with one
of the care-takers who had a pen
chant for teasing the baboon. See
ans thS SoiS-IdhCi dppi OdCuihS, IhS
baboon poured some water into a
hole in the ground, mixing it with
earth so as to make mud. When his
enemy came up he splashed the
muddy water on the care-taker's
uniform. For long time after this
every time the animal saw the care
taker he INDUCED in what had every
appearance of being laughter.
The elephants have decided
sense of humor, or signs of one any
way, and many are the amusing
capers they indulge in between eX-
hibition hours. They are "a of these
ammoth pachyderms with the Fore
paugh-Sells collection, two of which
are said to be the rarest and most
costly in the world, the only two of
their species known to be in captiv-
ity. They have huge, umbrella
shaped ears which cover nearly the
half of their bodies. One of them
Is deeply attached to Boston" the
baby elephant of the group, and is

The geological department of the

Brothers menageries is, 1t is said, the
largest collection of rare wild ami
mails in the world.

SockIess Swimmers,
Historian.


Alas! poor woman! She. cannot
escape the demands of fashion even
at the bathing beaches. No matter
to what least common multiple she
has reduced her bathing suit, she is
still open to the cynosure and stric-
lures of the prudes in chairs and on
the observation stands. AS she finds
her way to the surf among the mass
of tanned arms and legs that be-
strew the beach and appertain to her
brothers, her cousins and their male
associates, the summer girl has long
been impressed with the superior
wisdom of the male variety of bather
in giving his legs the same freedom
as his arms. He wear no long stock
ings soaked full of the sea, to inn
pede his swimming and hangs as
head weight from his body, therefore
why should she? So, few days ago,
the summer girl at Ocean Park, in a
moment of high resolve and low
hose, appeared on the sands In
socks. The shock nearly killed
sister, but the innovation is likely
to remain, it is said. until sister re-
covers and then,-well, then the
summer girl is expected to shed even
socks, and sister will depart early to
the mountains, with chaperone
and her smelling salts.
