LANE RESUMES HEARING
Investigating Charges Of Dis
elimination.

San Francisco, Jan. 2S.-Interstate
Commerce Commissioner Lane today
resumed the hearing Of testimony in
the investigation Of the Hartman
lines In this city. The line Of inquiry
is first to ascertain the conditions
that existed prior to the merger Of
the Union Pacific and the Southern
Pacific, under the direction of E. H.
Hartman. Then the conditions exis-
ting after the merger will be investi-
gated,
The first matter to be taken up in
the Investigation is the complaint of
the Pacific Coast jobbers and manu-
facturers' association that the South
ern Pacific Is unlawtully exaoting toll
on all freight coming into the city
on the coast lines. The Southern Pa
cific charges this toll, amounting to
b cents per ton, on all goods coming
in this way, although they pay the
state only for the goods ferried across
the bay. A large number of witnesses
have been summoned.

A Story For Girls--A Word OF
Warning That May Be
Timely.

This is story for Corvallis
girls. 1t is not fairy tale nor 9
picture drawn from imagination.
1t is a fact, and tor that reason il
shorld be warning to girls to be
ON their guard against the soft
speeches and sly, double-handed
dealings of ''slick" strangers.
There was once a prepossessina
looking travelling man who made
frequent visits to q certain Viii
lamette valley town, leaving be,
hind him in Portland, a. trusting
wife and two innocent children.
In the valley town, however, the
husband and father put aside the
memory of the Portland home,
passed as widower aud sought
the society of unsuspecting young
ladies who readily believed his
stories and without waiting to
learn something of the man, ac-
cepted his attentions. .
Knowing the fellow to be play
ing double game the police and
night watch took a hand in the
play. Following the traveller and
the young lady one night.
the Een of the law saw the couple
make various turns and finally
meet and start in an opposite di-
rection from that in which the
young ladv's home is located.
Accosting the couple the off,
Ger demanded an explanation OF
the meeting, asking the traveller
"What would your wife say if
she could see this ?'' The ques-
ton was enough to settle the mat

INFLATED girl, vino accepted the

while the other officer went in the
direction with the blus.

It is charitable to draw the cur
tain. The young woman, who is
of excellent character and highly
respected, has probably learned a
lesson which she will not soon
forget. 1t is probable also, that
the aforesaid traveller will put on
other and different airs if he ever
has the nerve to appear in tha,
Willamette Valley town again.
The story is told here by request,

Walter Hoare, well known and
popular Mineral Point boy, spent three
or four days of the past week with
relatives and friends here, much to the
delight of all. Five years ago Walter
left Mineral Point with his bride, nee
Miss Jessie Jacobs, to settle on land he
had purchased near Medford, county
seat of Taylor county, this state. 1t
was principally timber land which, as
all know, requires hard work and deter
mination to convert it into fertile fields.
By these tactics Mr.. and Mrs. Hoare
are succeeding in mastering all obsta-
cles, and seem contented with their lot.
Walter is now serving as a county sup

the Taylor county board are ON a tour
