HOTEL LOBBY GLEANINGS
JULIAN w. PERKINS is HERE FROM
PORTLAND, ORE.
He Represents T.. c. Atkins & Co. on
the Pacific SIOpe-yisitors
at the Hotels.

A well-looking young man, smooth-shaven
and well-groomed. sat on the balcony in
front of the Denison Hotel last night. He has
recently journeyed from the Pacific coast
to Indianapolis-his native city. Like most
Western men he is enthusiastic over the
particular part of the country in which he
resides. To put it in a slangy way few
knockers come from the West. Just TO
show you what the Northwest is doing,
the young man was saying, Il know it to be
a fact that one train a few weeks ago
brought one thousand people to eastern
Washington. That's an indication of what
the West and Northwest is doing these
days.
This assertion was made by Julian w.
Perkins, general manager on the PACING
coast for E. c. Atkins & Co.. of this city.
The Pacific coast branch of the business has
its headquarters at Portland, Ore, and
there Mr.. Perkins has resided for year.
He is here on business, and is stopping at
the Columbia Club Mr.. Perkins was form
erly assistant secretary of the Atkins COM
pany He believes there is bright future
for Washington. Oregon, Idaho and other
States in that locality. Go into the lead
ing hotel of Portland tonight he said,
and you would find a large number of
capitalists who are waiting for an oppor-
tunity to invest big sums of money in tim
Der. Oregon is rich in this product and mil
lions are being invested" The Atkins peo-
pie keep in touch with the timber interests
of the country, as it is the business of the
company to fit out mills and consequently
their representative on the coast is fami-
liar with much that goes on in the timber
industry. Mr.. Perkins says that a de-
lightful climate is found in Oregon. I'VE
are strong on the fruit proposition also,
he remarked. I'm Oregon we have perhaps
as good fruit as is found in California and
we have the advantage of having it grown

RITUALISTIC COSTUMES.
Three Rival Concerns Display Them
mt the Denison.

A committee from the Odd Fellows and
the Order of Rebekahs spent last evening
at the Denison Hotel selecting costumes
for their ritualistic work. Three rival con-
Germs that deal in these historical costumes
were represented at the hotel and the
competition was sharp. Some of the guests
and visitors at the house became much in
terested in what was going and few
women decided they would like to try on
some of the quaint garbs. While the rep
resentative of one firm was showing the
committee his stock Of costumes, the rep
resentative of another establishment in
vited some of the hotel guests into his
sample room to look at his goods. One
very nice looking young girl, at the solic-
itation of her friends, tried on a regal gown
of royal purple and her friends insisted
that she bore a striking resemblance to
Julia Arthur in More Than Queen" She
was naturally not displeased at this COM
pliment and moved about the chamber in
her royal robes with all the graciousness
of a princess of cid
