Ethel and the other ladies of the party

Glad to See Americans.

Even though the ex-President's recep-
ton everywhere has been genuinely
hearty. he still cleaves to his own, and
there seems to be more than warmth in
his meeting with SO many Americans. At
the conclusion OF the reception the tour
lists gave three cheers for Col. Roosevelt.
and then broke forth with the well known
slogan: whats the matter with Roose-
welt? He's all right
This brought a generous smile to the
colonePs face and he said: II wish l
could give three cheers for every one
from California to Massachusetts"
Last evening a visit was made to the
temples at Karnak. The ruins of these
buildings are the most wonderful OF any
In Egypt. In the hills behind the tenn
pies are the tombs OF the kings and
queens, and these the party saw In the

NEW YORK, March 22.-Absence of
pressure continued to make 1t easy for
limited professional operations to ad-
rance prices in today's stock market.
Acting on the theory that it is q good
lime to buy stocks when there are no
liscoverable reasons for buying them,
restless traders risked long commitments
despite the narrowness Of the market and
IT'S tendency toward special movements
and encountered very little opposition.
As 1t was, the market seemed to betray
The influence Of some important buying
which assisted the efforts of the traders
who were working for an advance.
For the greater part of the day trans
actions were desultory and characterized
by spasms of activity, with periods OF
intermittent stagnation. At the same
from the opening until we'll into the
afternoon was from firmness to strength.

curities. Reading, Northern Pacific.

road list was more generally active than
stocks were firm.
Most of the news OF marketwise bearing
sore a slightly more favorable complexion
han it has lately. Calm has succeeded
he storm at Washington, and President
Taft has all the while been making prog
'ess toward the establishment of friendly
commercial relations with our important
foreign customers and purveyors.
Labor Situation Improved.
The labor situation showed improvement
N respect especially to the prospects for
peace on the western railroads. and such
.ailroad earnings as were reported indi-
lated the firm basis on which earnings
have been established. Among the days
statements was that of the Panhandle for
February. showing a net increase of more
han SIG 900, saved out of gross In
crease OF $4,000.
Probably the most encouraging of mar
ketwise developments was the fair sue
less of the New York city bond sale.
Considering the fact that the new muni-
.ipal administration had had but little
lime to prepare for this offering, that the
wenty-year redemption clause had q re-
ltrainfhg effect on prices and that the
money market had gone on firmer level
since the issue was first projected. the
premium realized by the city must be
regarded as satisfactory, while the total
subscription of four times the amount OF
offering betokened a reasonable amount

LarSen-PrObSt.

Mrs. Charles A. Bell received a
postal card Tuesday announcing the
marriage Of Charles Larsen, the pop
ular day clerk at the Mt. Hood hotel
and Miss Grace Probst, one of the
efficient mattresses of that hostelry.
Mr.. Larsen, who has been in Hood
River for the past ID months, left last
week to take his vacation going to the
farm of his mother near LAUREL, in
Washington county. Miss Probst left
about the same time for a short vaca-
tion and the first news of the wedding
came Tuesday when the card stated
that they were enjoying their honey
moon on the farm Miss Probst is the
daughter of a well to do rancher near
Centralia, Wash, and is known to
the hotel patrons Of Hood River.
The bride and groom did not state
whether they expected to return to
Hood River, and Mr.. and Mrs. Bell
are regretting the loss of two very
efficient employees. Mrs. Bell says
that she is afraid the Mt Hood hotel
will gain reputation a matrimonial
bureau since this His the ninth girl who
has been married in the past two
years Charlie Larsen is the first of
the men employees to suffer from the
matrimonial epidemic, but as Gene
Bush has been showing signs of having

feared that the marriage fever will
become general.

With the glasses gone, his eyes was about
