PORTLAND HOSTELRY
INVADED BY RAT

The refined quiet Of the aristocratie
Portland Hotel, in Portland, received
shock last Thursday afternoon, when a
large gray rat invaded the hostelry.
From whence the roSent came no one
seemed tor know perhaps from some
adjacent country region to see the
Apple Show. About five thirty, just
as the people were returning from the
theatres and we're sitting around the
lobbies resting few moments before
preparing for dinner, suddenly the
crashing of furniture and the shrieks
of the eolored walters issuing from the
corridor leading to the grill room gave
every one reason to conclude that two
of the colOred boys were fighting a
duel over some chocolate colored enam-
orata or settling some other important
matter.
Naturally the guests rushed to the
entrance, hoping to witness some
scientific wool-pullinR between the
negro scrappers. Such noises and cries
as the following were floating out over
the building: "Watch out deah, Nebo,
he bite you, sho', niggah T. and "kill
dat sun NV a gunl Kill dat sun NV a
gunW Imagine how startled the
ladies and gentlemen were when they
beheld in the corridor glossy waiter
on his stomach knocking furiously with
a whisk broom at some object hidden
under large divan. In moment
big gray rat jumped over the bowling
daiky and scuttled down the hall
toward the lobby. A Hood River man,
who was near the entrance climbed
coat rack, it is said. Ladies screamed.
and the little negro bellboy rolled on
the floor, convulsed with laughter.
The rat turned and ran toward the
kitchen, followed by the dozen or more
walters making efforts to kill it with
napkins and towels. Just as it passed
the door leading from the kitchen a
waiter came out bearing tray of
steaming dishes. He was struck amid |
ships by his confereres ard the hot |
food covered more than one wooley !
head. A real fight was narrowly |
avoided, and the rodent escaped in the |
kitchen, where 1t was probably killed |
by the cook with cleaver.

CITY'S SETTING RECALLS
DAYS OF YOUTH

''When Y got off the train here at
your station and started up toward the
hotel. the ridge rising behind the busi-
ness portion of your city reminded me
of my home down in West Virginia
among the Allegheny mountains, and
brought back to me memories Of days
of boyhood The surrounding beauty
of the scenery of the woods and hills
touched tender spot. But to leave
all question of sentiment aside, when |
left the city and drove out in the coun-
try with Mr.. Stanton, at whose home
was visiting. when the broad expanse
of apple orchards began to spread out
before me, could only say it is the
most magnificent valley | have ever
beheld. And from a business stand
point it is a picture that delights a
man. who has spent the greater part
of his life dealing in apples. The apple
has got you, there's no getting away
from it. which you don't want TO do.
You are in your infancy and everything
spells success, so spoke Charles J.
Sinsel, an orchardist Of Boise, Idaho,
and also the largest fruit dealer Of that
state. who came up from the Port
land Apple Show fora visit with Frank
Stanton before going to the Spokane
Apple Show, where he will be chief
judge. Mr.. Sinsel left for the inland
city Monday evening.
The Idaho fruit man was the guest
at an informal dinner Monday evening
at the Oregon. Seated around the ia
BILE with him were Frank Stanton, 4.
l.. Smith, Joseph A. Wilson and c. II.
Sproat.
Mr.. Sinsel delights in a good story.
lie not only likes TO listen to one but
is fond Of telling them himself.
His "reminiscences related Monday
evening created much interest and
caused many ripples Of laughter. The
story of Thanksgiving dinner given
by a bachelors club in Helena, of
which he was member, caused every
one to lick this lips and think of the
coming Turkey Day. Thirteen Of US
young men, to cut down expenses and
yet in order to have the good things OF
life banded ourselves in the club We
had thirteen members, from as many
different states. We planned the ban
quet months before Thanksgiving.
Each member was to furnish the most
priced dishes from his respective com
munity. When the day finally rolled
around and we were assembled at the
table, | wish that you could have seen
the food. There was Pompano from
the Gulf, real beans from Boston, hog
chittlins' from Tennessee, and have
never had prouder moment than
when | saw the 'posums that my
mother had sent me from West Vir-
ginia being carved. II took us just
six hours to get away with that din
ner.

mains and must be recognized that had
il not been for the wise counsel of Mr..
Smith the apple business of Oregon
would not be what it is today. But
these remarks touch upon Mr. Smiths
labor at Hood River alone, and it must
be remembered that for many years he
was the president of the horticultural
Society, more than likely he would be
still had he not resigned in the Fall of
1906. His labors in behalf of this soci-
ETY. were of inestimable value to every
section of the state where any sort of
fruit is grown, but more particularly
the apple.
Yes, Oregon owes a great debt of
gratitude to L. l.. Smith, and 1t was
but meet and proper that he was
elected an honorary member of the
society which he made such a power
for good. "
