ed should be in denominations of $5,
$10 and $20.
Full Instructions Given.
He gave specific Information as to
how the money should be deposited.
He said that somewhere along the
road he would give a signal by wav
ing a pocket flashlight three times
in a circle. Mr. Ladd was directed
to proceed not faster than 10 miles
an hour and to drop the package,
which should be wrapped in white
paper, at the spot where the flash
light signal should be given. He was
then ordered to drive at high speed
down the highway as soon as thi
package had been dropped.
Police Inspector Hellyer was se
lected to impersonate Mr. Ladd in
driving the machine with the spuri
ous package. Three other automo
biles loaded with police, deputy sher
iffs and federal operatives followed
at varying distances.
Signal Flashes In Downpour.
As Hellyer's machine and on con
taining police detectives were com
ing west on the Base Line road about
200 yards east of the Intersection of
the Base Line road and the Craig
road, they saw the flashlight signal
through the downpour of rain. True
to instructions, Hellyer proceeded at
slow speed to a point where a bit of
paper was burning to designate the
spot where the package should be
dropped.
He tossed the bundle out of the
machine and speeded up for about
100 feet, when he brought his car to
a stop. By turning off one of his
rear lights he signalled for the ma
chines in the rear to come on. but by
the time the others had arrived, the
"Shadow" had picked up the pack
age and fled. Although they scoured
the wooded section at that point,
they were unable to find the slightest
trace of the mysterious individual.
Woman Gets Threat.
PORTLAND, Jan. 13 Mrs. Phil
Oeturti received a threatening letter
from "Shadow" It became known to-
day. The letter resembled those re-
celved by other Portlanders.
Bridge And Road
This proposed Improvement Is held
to be the most Important In the coun
ty for immediate action and support
has been given by all of the large
organizations of the county. The re
construction of the bridge and the
opening of the road to the forest
boundary was first proposed by the
Cmpqua post of the American Legion
after some of the ex-service men.
who have taken on government land
beyond Rock creek told of the ex
periences they were forced to under
go in getting supplies to their cabins.
A strong committee was appointed
to represent the Legion and a sim
ilar committee was appointed from
the chamber of commerce and these
two committees met Jointly with the
county) court. Now that the realty
board has added In the move, great
strengtn has been added to the sun
port ana it is evident that the coun
ty court can adopt no more popular
move than that called for In the
above resolution.
The expense to the county wilt not
be heavy, a the settlers have shown
a willingness to help. Timber for the
nricige has been promised by a rep-
reentative of the Kendall Lumber
company which owns most of the
timoer in the Immediate vicinity. The
rosest service ha promised th. n
of a man and a truck in the event
the work Is done earlv In th. anrtn.
and the settlers have agreed to do
nat tanor. This bridge can doubt
less be built a great deal ehnr
unuer inese conditions, than wnnlH
be possible at any other place and
It Is certain that the bridge is badly
needed. During the summer thous
ands of people visit Rock Creek and
to leave the ?ree uncrcssable vnnlH
be doubtless to turn away many o'
the tourists, campers and picnlcers.
The county court Is not asked to
make any great expenditure on the
roaa between Hock Creek and the
forest boundary. The court is asked
to establish a grade and declare th

her discharge and arrived in Rose

at the home of her parents, Mr. and

Miss Ueland, "there are about 800
patients at Fort Sam Houston. Most
of them are accident cases from the
surrounding camps, and as Fort Sam
Houston Is at the head of the south
rn division It is very likely that It
will remain a permanent hospital.
The work with the returned soldiers
vas very Interesting and I thorough
ly enjoyed my experiences." With
the exception of the Misses Eva and
Evea Applegate, who are at an army
-amp in Georgia, Miss Ueland Is the

J. E. McCllntock.
Last night the Christian church
held the center of the stage at the
tabernacle, and beaded by Pastor
Hilton, the host of this church, with
banners waving filled every avail
able reserved seat, and more room
had to be provided. The young, the
middle aged and the elderly, they
were all there. As the procession
marched In the choir struck up the
song, "Onward Christian Soldiers,"
and the large audience rose and gave
hearty cheers, which suggests the
splendid spirit of Christiun fellow
ship which obtains among the
churches of our city. Dr. Bulgin
gave a hearty greeting to this com
pany of church folk, and briefly re
viewed their history from the time
that Alexander Campbell gave as the
creed that should later become the
foundation on which this organiza
tion would build, when he said.
"Take the Bible tor your creed." An
other thing, said Bulgin, that you
Christians should be proud of Is that
you have insisted thut the so-called
Sunday Is thevLord's day." not the
Sabbath, nor Sunday, but the Lord's
day. He also reminded them that
they have the distinction of being
able to "talk back," or as the darkey
says, "Spute," and this Is not a bad
failing when done in the proper
spirit; and finally he complimented
them for the determined position
they have. always taken to "stand by
the Bible," not In part, but in whole.
Mras Lewis then sung, "Nothing But
Leaves," and Mr. Bulgin commenced
his sermon, using as his text, "Cut
It down, why occupieth 11 space to
no purpose."
The tabernacle was well filled last
night, and an Intenses interest was
manifest, so muoh to that twenty-five
or thirty people arose when the In
vitation was given for those who de
sired the prayers of God s people.
Tonight the South Methodist
Church will be much In evidence at
the tabernacle. Tomorrow night the
Baptists.
The subject announced for the ser
mon tonight Is "The Infidel's gall, or
the unreasonable demands of unbe
lief."
At 7 o'clock this evening at the
Presbyterian church all personal
workers will meet for a conference
with Dr. Bulgin. and it Is urged that
every member of this committee be
present.
NEW FAD APPEARS
A new fad appeared In Roseburg
today and attracted considerable at
tention. It Is evident that some of
the women have decided that some
thing was needed to cover a portion
of the broad expanse between shoe
top and skirt bottom, and conse
quently to fill the gap, there appear
ed a dainty ribbon encircling the
well formed ankle and tied in a neat
little bow. The contrast between the
silk storklngs and the ribbon and the
uniqueness of the display attracted
considerable attention on the streets
as the young lady introducing the
new style paraded the main thoro
ughfares.

Eric V. Hauser Lauds City of
Roseburg and Says We

SURPRISED AT GROWTH
Mitkrs Trip Through Business and
Residence District and Declares
That City Is Going Ahead
by Ixwps and Bounds.
Eric V. Hauser, proprietor of the
Multnomah hotel In Portland, was a
visitor in Roseburg today for several
hours and during his short stay here
made a trip through the business
and residence districts of the city. .
accompanied by Ray Clark, of the
Uinpqua hotel. This is Mr. Hauser's
first visit in Roseburg for five years,
and he was greatly surprised at the
growth of the city In that length of
time. He commented on the excel
lent hotel accommodations here and
also the magnificent federnl and high
school buildings. He appeared to be
much impressed with the appearance
of the residence district and declared
that Roseburg is destined to be one
of the leading cities of the state. Mr.
Hauser had the following to say con
cerning his visit here:
"I am more than delighted to visit
your city, and I want to tell you what
a wonderful growth you have made.
Five years ago I was here and at that
tlmo your real prosperity hnd Just
started. It Is very evident that since
then you have been on the go. A
trip through your business district
will convince anyone that you have
the real foundation for a city. All
of the merchants seem to be live-
wires and take a pride In the appear
ance of the business thoroughfares.
The location of Roseburg Is Ideal.
We have all heard of your remark
able climatic conditions. Your city
should be the centralization point
for tourist trnvnl. You are one day's
travel from Portland and are also a
terminal point from the south. Boost
your tourist trade. MnTte It worth '
while for the outside visitors to stop
here for a day or two and look over
your community."
. Mr. Hauser is well known through- .
out the Paeifle northwest nnd has
been a dominant factor In the growth
of Portland. During the war he took
an active interest in the boys In the
camps and "over there" and spared
no expense In supplying them with
