PORTLAND. Ore, March IL. 1907.
A contract has been let by the Port
land Commercial Club for advertis-
ing which will reach about several
millions of readers. making prominent
the low colonist rates to this State,
and giving special attention to ne ag-
ricultural resources and possibilities
OF Oregon.
The general passenger agents of
all the different roads unite in the
belief that we are to have an espec-
tally large immigration and urge not
only the commercial and industrial
bodies OF the State. but all citizens,
to bear in mind that these rates will
continue until April 30th. and It is
advisable for them to see their station

Building operations reported from
all points In oregon show greater ac-
tivlty than at any time In the history
of the State. The smaller towns are
growing just as substantially as are
the cities, and in many districts OF
the State new farm houses are being
erected and more substantial improve
ments are being made than for many
years past. All Of the irrigated dis
tricts OF the state are receiving many
home seekers, and the valleys and
more thickly settled sections are en-
tertaining good many visitors who
are looking for investemnts of every
possible character.
The demand for building material
OF all kinds is unprecedented. One
brick manufacturer reports orders ex-
ceeding those OF last year at this time

rumors as to his business with Mr.. Shipper were
rife amongst the hospital employees.
Meanwhile O'Day gathering some interesting
data As Mr. Shipper proceeded with his recital of
the various thefts, ending with the one which more
nearly concerned him, the detective otted down an
occasional memorandum, but kept silent until the
superintendent finished with Shields recommendation

him, but he checked himself and merely asked
"You say Shields is one of Pinkerton's men?"
"Why, certainly l supposed you friends, he
spoke of you so warmly. Possibly though he knows
you but by reputation"
"Thats more likely I think, though I'd like to make
his acquaintance. May I your telephone, Mr..

his desk

At nine the next morning Shields had private

tell although he had spent the night in pursuit of the
jewels. He had learned that a maid had gone out the
evening before for few hours and had returned
but he had followed her up early that morning and
found her very ill at her home with physician in
attendance. She had shown signs of fear when he
had made himself known to her. and had accounted
satisfactorily for her actions from the time of her leaving
the hospital. If anything, she seemed glad him
and asked him to explain her absence the house
keeper and thus avert her dismissal. He concluded
with:
I'm intensely mortified, sir. I seem to have made
fizze of this job I'm fitted for work in the open
my speciality lies in Disgusting myself that work
under cover, but if this fellow is up to my lodges as he
seems to be- might we'll resign. You'd be justified

doing So"

much prefer retaining you. In fact, won't hear of
anything else
