10 THJ MORXIXG OREGOXIAX.. FRIDAY, APRIL, o. 11K)7. HELD UP BY THUG IN PINK DOMINO Henry Hahn Forced to Stand and Deliver on Veranda of Own Home. SHUT UP IN HIS BEDROOM Bnrglar Takes Fright After Impris oning Victim and Flee. Pur sued hy Hail of Bullets (Yom Latter's Revolver. The pink domino burglar, whose Te Cf.nt operations have ben the despair of the police, visited the mansion of Henry Hahn. at the head of Ijovejoy street, last night. unci hfld-up the owner, relieving him of JL.'jO In coin, all he had In ms pockets, and a gold watch. The daring holdup occurred on the ver anda of the Hahn home and after robbing Mr. Hahn the pink domino man com manded him to enter the house and marched him upstairs to his bedroom. All I this was accomplished at the point of a ' threatening blue-barreled revolver, held t In the hand of the wearer of the pink lomlno. who expressed a desire to see what else of value the residence con ' talncd. He had first demanded of Mr. Hahn that he show the location of the I family eafe, but the irata merchant re ' fused. reappointed in his effort to' secure richer booty and probably frightened at the warning calls of Mrs. Sheldon, Mr. Hnhn'e married daughter, the thief made hie escape from the house by a rear door. Mr. Hahn emptied his revolvor at the fleeing burglar. Telephone calls were promptly sent to police headquarters ami Captain Bailer dispatched Detective Ser- geant Baity, Acting Detective Price and ' Fatrolman Larry Evans to the scene. Story of Mr. Hahn. In relating his trying experience while I in custody of the burglar. Mr. Hahn told the story of the holdup as follows: "The man, who wore a pink domino jns.sk and had towels tied around his hoes In order to deaden the sound of rite footsteps, came upon me suddenly as T was inserting my key in the lock of 'the front door. He commanded me to throw up my hands, and I compiled Im mediately on looking into the barrel of trie revolver. He then took my watch and bout O.60 In coin all I had in my pocket at the time and told me to open the door nd enter. I did as he directed and he followed. My daughter. Mrs. Sheldon, heard the noise and coming to the head of the stairs caught a glimpse of my masked companion. She ran hurriedly to the room of my son. Leo. and called for him to awaken and go to my rescue. My custodian then poked the gun against my bank and ordered me to stop her cries, to which I refused. "He then escorted me as far as the head of the stairs and commanded me to enter my room and not to move or make an outcry, after which he went down stairs and I secured my revolver as soon as possible. 'When I arrived downstairs the man had gone, but I believe he must ' have loft by a rear entrance, for he was not in sight when I gained the porch. T then walked to the southern end of the veranda and waited. The man put in his appearance in a few seconds and I opened Are on him. He dodged back and ran around to the rear of the house and escaped In the shrubbery and brush on the' hillside directly in rear of my house." HSvldenco of the fusillade directed at the fleeing robler was found on one of the pillars supporting the porch, where one of the bullets plowed through, making a scar on the post easily discernible. Burglar Not an Old Hand. The burglar Is lielleved by the police to be someone who Is familiar with the cir cumstances and habits of the occupants of houses he selects, but who has not much experience in the criminal line. This Is deduced from the fact that the robber has taken several watches. A thorough crook will eschew watches and monogram med jewelry on account of the likelihood of these articles being traced. The prob ability of the man being a beginner makes It hard for the officers to secure and defi nite trace of him, for in the operations so far conducted the culprit has left no trace on which an identification could be made. The pink domino mask, or rather its wearer. Is being hunted with all the energy possessed by at least two members of Captain Bruin's secret service branch. Detective Sergeant Baty and Acting De tective Price searched the hills back of the Hahn residence in hopes of finding some trace of the robber, or perhaps to dis cover that all of Mr. Halm's shots had not proven futile, but up to a late hour their efforts had proven unavailing. The ground hack of the house Is of rough, un. even hillocks leading up to the heights and 1s covered with thick underbrush, making tracks practically undlBcernlble. Miss Maude Halm, who had attended the Helllg Theater last night, reached home in company with her escort about live minutes after Mr. Hahn had emptied his revolver after the fleeing burglar. n their way up the hill the young couple met no suspicious characters, and It Is assumed that the marauder fled towards the and Clark Fair Grounds.

Cooper, of McMinnville, to Advertise Oregon Not Enthusiastically Received by Publicity Experts. PORTIjAND people and for that mat ter a great many of the residents in every section of the state do not en thuse over tho plan of Colonel J. C. Cooper, of McMinnville, who proposes sending 40 young women, dressed in In dian costume, from this state to the Jamestown Exposition. The Idea of Colonel Cooper Is to have this delega tion of young women represent the state at the Exposition and appear publicly in drills and dances In exemplification of Indian life In Oregon at an early day. The practicability of such a plan for advertising Oregon is doubted. There exists with the average citizen no objec tion to sending any number of young women to the Jamestown or any other exposition, for a more creditable exhibit could not ' be sent. But the proposal to have these young women clothed in In dian gowns Is not approved and by many is severely censured. The main objec tion against sending young women as Indfan maids U the fact that it will serve to strengthen the impression so prevalent throughout the East that Ore gon Is infested with Indians. This is a belief with which Oregon has had to contend for yean and now that the Idea, has been displaced, practically, it Is ar gued that a mistake would be made in sanctioning anything that would tend to revive this erroneous impression among Kaaternere. The idea Is an original one with Colonel Cooper, who is & pioneer of the state and lived In Yamhill County when In dians were common. In fact. Colonel Cooper is the author of an Indian novel, "The Yamhills." which Is a well-written story of Indian life in this state many years ago. His friends explain that Colonel Cooper recognizes In the scheme of representing the state as he proposes an opportunity to recall events associated, with the early history of the state and at the same time give an attractive en tertainment. They declare the- promoter of the plan Is enthusiastic for sending the delegation of yong women, who will In themselves, being bright and accom plished, refute all unreasonable Ideas that may exist in the East as to the prevalence of redskins in this state, while at the same time the exposition visitors will be treated to an entertainment of great interest and attractiveness. The costume, it is claimed, is merely an in MACCABEES BEGIN STATE CONVENTION Knights and Ladies Assemble Here for Fifth Triennial Grand Lodge. HOW ORDER HAS GROWN Was Established In Oregon in 1892 and Now Has 4500 Members. Large Sums Have Been Paid Beneficiaries. Tented in the Knitrhts of Pythias Hall and hived in the Woodmen Hall, re spectively, the Knights and the Ladies of the Maccabees of Oregon are holding their fifth triennial state conventions.

McLaughlin, H. K. Sullivan. programme last night. The conventions proper will not be convened until 10 o'clock this morning. Both conventions will adjourn tonight. The Knights of the Maccabees last night Initiated a large class of candidates, the work being performed by a special team selected from among the delegates. The initiatory work was followed hy a drill by Portland Division No. 1. Uniform Rank, and an address by John A. Jeff rey. An informal reception to the visiting delegates, under the auspices of the. 12 local tents, included a lirnch and a smoker. City Treasurer J. B. TVerleln, commander of Portland Tent No. 1., de livered the formal address of welcome, to which responses were made by A. Huck esteln, of Salem; J. S. Van Winkle, Al bany, and O. C. Johnson. Baker City. At 10 o'clock this morning State Com mander J. W. 3herwood will call the con vention to order. The most important business to he transacted is the election of a representative to the Supremo Tent, K. O. T. M.. which will be held at Chi cago In July. Election of officers to serve for the ensuing three years will also be held today. The present state officers are: Past cident, while the personal accomplish ments of the company of young women will entirely offset any unfavorable con clusions that may be drawn as to the state and the civilized character of its inhabitants. "This plan for sending a company of young women to the Jamestown Expo sition as Indian maids, was presented to the Chamber of Commerce for its in dorsement when the idea was ilrst con ceived by Colonel Cooper." said Edmond G. Giltner, secretary of the Chamber of Commerce yesterday. "The proposal was rejected on the theory that the plan is not a feasible one for advertising the state. If Oregon is to be reprcnented at this or any other exposition, there should be made a display of our products and our resources and an exploitation made of our general advantages, rather than tho execution of drills and marches by young women, costumed as Indians. Such an exhibition might bo ail right for a county fair as an entertaining feature where the significance of the event would be thor oughly understood but it seems to me that it would be a aerious mistake to mako a show of these young women before the world as typifying Indian life in Oregon, where that life and state of civilization is no longer in evidence." "While i think Colonel Cooper Is seri ously in earnest and entirely consci entious, believing that his scheme will prove a unique one for advertising the state. I do not think well of it myself." said J. B. Iaber. secretary of the Board of Trade yesterday. "The plan was sub mitted to the board for Its indorsement but we could not agree with its feasibil ity from an advertising view point. There already prevails throughout the East too much of an Idea that Oregon Is a half civilized state, overrun by Indians. We have had to contend with this Impres sion too long already. The average East erner Imagines that should he visit this state he would be confronted at every turn in the road by a band of savages, armed with tomahawks and on the war path. We should make a showing at Jamestown and I think a creditable ap pearance would be made by the 40 young women if the idea of Indian costumes could be abandoned and ordinary gowns substituted. A most gratifying showing could be made by such a company of young women, accomplished In music, literature and art demonstrating the su perior educational advantages of the state-.' commander. J. S.

LENGTH TO BE 1400 FEET Mum Be Drilled Through Solid Rock, and Work Is Expected to Require Six to Eight Months at Least. . EL Fl Lyt-e. president of the Pacific Railway & Navigation Company, has let the contract for th construction of a lone tunnel on the road to A. J. and George McCabe, Portland railway con tractors. This is the first long tunnel to be driven on the Lytle road. A number of others will be built an soon as the work progreAas sufficiently. Th contract Just let calls for a tunnel 1400 feet long at a point five miles almost directly west of Buxton, the place to which the road has already ben com pleted. The work ia heavy rock drilling and a compressed air drill, driven by a gasoline engine, will be set up. An elec tric light plant will be installed and the work prosecuted day and night. Three shifts will be worked, with the intention of finishing the job as fast as possible. It is expected to have the tunnel com pleted in six or eight months. The con tractors have had experience in this kind of work and no delays are expected. President Lytle hopes to accomplish much work during the coming season. Increased forces will be put on as soon as the weather la sufficiently settled and construction work all along the line will be pushed while tho weather is tavorabla for outdoor work. WI THDRAU S ITS OPPOSITIOX Govcrrrm en t W J U Perm 1 1 Ra 1 1 roa d to Build Up Deschutes. Opposition by the Government reclama tion service to plans for the construction of the Oregon Trunk Railroad up the Deschutes River, has been removed and work Is now expected to proceed without delay. A. message was received yester day by Engineer F. S. Gordon, who is in charge of the work, that the railroad's right-of-way had been granted. Surveys were completed last year hut after work of grading the line had been i-arried on for a. time, notice was received that the line encroached upon the pre serves of the reclamation service and that work must Btop. Tt was then supposed the railroad would not be allowed to proceed, but representations were made to the Government, setting forth the de sirability of a railroad Into this Isolated country, and it appears the matter has been reconsidered with the result that permission has been given to build the road. W. F. Kelson, of Seattle, is president of the Oregon Trunk. HOMES EEKER TRAVEL HEAVY Arrival Over Karri man Roads Last Week Numbered 1469.
