into the festival spirit of the occasion.
1t was an occasion on which Portland

secure seats in any of the spacious
grandstands, were permitted to occupy
all of the desirable vantage points
from which to enjoy the magnificencs

Included in the parade, which wal
headed by Police Captain Moore and I

NOTHING IS EVER DESTROYED
Matter Changes, But eoss Not Cease
to ExIst-sImpis Experiment That
Proves Proposition.

When candle burns 1t is not de-
stroyed. What seems like destruction
IL merely change Any one can prove
this for himself by very simple ex-
pertinent
Take a glass tube Ind fit a cork into
each end Bore some holes In the low
er cork, one OF them In the middle
large enough to hold candle. Bend
smaller glass tube to u shape, I'LL 1t
with small pieces OF caustic soda and
cork one end. Now connect the two
cylinders by small glass tube through
the corks. Insert the candle through
the lower cork and suspend the whole
apparatus from one beam of the chem
ical balance. Weigh It carefully.
Connect the free end OF the u tube
to an aspirator 30 as to establish q
uniform current OF air through the
tubes. Remove the candle, light II
and instantly reinsert 1t. Let 1t burn
down until entirely consumed. Now
reweigh the apparatus. You will find
that 1t actually weighs more than II
did before the candle was burnt
What had happened? The carbon
and hydrogen Of which the candle wal
composed have been separated, hav,
drawn oxygen from the air and com
bined with it. forming water and car
bon dioxide or carbonic acid gas. Tn,
caustic soda has absorbed the carbon
dioIide and made sodium carbonate
and has also caught the water. Tn
extra weight is simply that of the oxy
gen taken out of the air.
This is a practical illustration OF tn
great truth that nothing is ever d.
stroyed. Matter changes, but does nc
cease to exist st. Thomas Aquina

OBTAIN AMERICAN CONSUL.
Armsd Rebel Guard Posted at Con-
ference In Juarez

Juarez-Tweny-five Americans, in
Guiding American Consul Edwards,
were held in the Office of the Mexican
Northwestern railway here for nearly
two hours while an armed guard of
rebels prevented them from leaving
the building.
Rebel officials had become angered
at the officers of the Mexican North
western over $4,000 check payable to
the rebels as export duty on con-
signment of gold ore by the American
Smelling & Refining company in Chi
hushua. The shipment had arrived in
Ell Paso, but when the rebels attempt
ed to cash the $4,000 check, the banks
in Ell Psso refused payment. After
the check was given, the Federals had
entered Chihuahua City and it is be-
leved that the American Smelling &
Refining company stopped payment on
it, knowing that the rebels, because
of their retreat, would be unable to
trouble them further.
Consul Edwards went to the North
western offices to confer with H. c.
Ferris, general manager of the road
Thomas Ryan, traffic manager, and G.
T. Carson, general auditor. The off
Gals were in conference at O'Clock
when they suddenly found the doors O.
the building surrounded by armed men
Consul Edwards telephoned TO
Colonel Pascual Orozco, ST., head o
the garrison, who arrived in few
minutes and ordered the guards to re
lease all minor employees. The officer
of the road were held After a brie
conference the American consul left
but the railroad officials were closete
with Orozco until z O'Clock, whe
they were released and crossed to tn
American side. 1t was said they ha
agreed to make the check good.

Washington, d. C.-President Taft
has indicated that he would not make
any extensive campaign trip this fall,
when he declined an invitation to at

TENDER. While he will not take any
long trips, it is believed the president
will make several long speeches set
ting forth his views of the issues that
confront the country. No engage
ments for such speeches have been
made and probably wi not be made
until after the Organization of the Re-
