Jacobs Bros., pf Portland, are quuiud
a snylng that they are thinking of
rebuilding the Albany woolen mills,
which were destroyed by fire four

Manager Lavey, of the Commercial

The booster booklet seems to be very
well arranged, and both the printed
matter and the pictures will be fjrst

ing of the board of managers for to
night and they will examine the plan
of thVbook as proposed by the Puclflr
Monthly people, and will either ap
prove or reject It. inasmuch, how
ever, as Mr. Ro'hratmcher, who do
signed the booklet, conferred with the
board of manager before carrying out
the work. It Is probable that only a
few changes will be made. There will
be about 60 fine cuts In tho booklet,
and they give a good Idea of the beau

intrinsic medicinal properties, of great
value.
