Grace Forrest, a La Grande girl, in "Caprice of the Moun tain." 9-21-lt WHOLE STATE IS FORTUNATE It appears, now that detailed re ports have been made, that all of Oregon escaped forest fires with the same good fortune that Union county did this year. Oregon suffered practically no loss from forest fires this year, accord in gto State Forester Elliott at Salem, despite the fact that the timbered and brush area owned by the govern- I ment and Drivate individuals and com- ! panies comprises approximately 22,- 000,000 acres. ine entire aamage from fires, Mr. Elliott says, will be less than $500. Last year the loss on privately-owned timber lands total ed $29,000. Oregon has 13,125,000 acres within the National forests, of which about 10,000,000 acres is commercial timber land. There are 10,000,000 acres of privately-owned timber land patroled by the state and timber owners. In addition to this there are approxi mately 2,000,000 acres of brush land in the Southern part of the state. One of the reasons for the greater frequency of forest fires in Jackson and Josephine counties than in other counties of the state, is said to be the higher average temperature in those sections during the summer months, Mr. Elliott said.

Through a writ of habeas corpus applied for in the United States District Court re cently Goldstein & Goldstein, attor neys, are trying to prevent the im migration authorities from deporting Miss Hilda Rose Cavanaugh, an Eng lish actress, whose fiance is Clarence D. Levey, a real estate broker of Long Branch, N. J. Several years aeo Levev met Msi Cavanaugh when she was filling a he- atncal engagement here. The eouo'e became engaged, but Miss Cavanaugh returned to London to resume h-?r stage work there. Several weeks ago she returned here on the Carpathia, expecting to fill another theatrical en gagement. In spite of the fact that she traveled first class, the immigra tion authorities held her up on the ground that she was without funds and likely to become a public charge. Miss Cavanaugh told the board of special inquiry of her theatrical en gagement but the board ordered hr deportation and the finding was upheld ry ine aepanment of labor in Wash ington. Then Mr. Levev came fnr ward and stated his desire to marry the Bctress. This is made the basis for the writ of habeas corpus applied for asking for the release of M133 Cavanaugh from Ellis Island. Our Want Ads bring result. Forest Fire Near Sparta. Baker, Sept. 21. Called by long dis tance telephone from the lookout sta tion on Sparta butte, Forest Super visor Barnes and W. E. White of the Minam forestry service motored at top speed beyond Goose creek at 2 o'clock this morning, a distance of more than 27 miles, to find that a fire in the sagebrush had attracted the lookout's attention. The blaze was near the forest boundaries and for a time menaced the timbered area. SALEM MYSTEY IS NOW CLEAR. Hotel Clerk, Long Missing, Now Is Known to be Dead. Salem, Or., Sept. 21. The skeleton of the body found last Friday in the underbrush of the Willamette, five miles north of the city, is evidently that of Irvin Springer, formerly night clerk of the Marion hotel, according to those who are in a position to know. Irvin Springer, a son of Peter Springer of this city, night clerk of the Marion hotel, disappeared on the night of January 8, 1915, and, not withstanding the fact that the father had done everything to locate him, no word had been received to indicate whether he was dead or living. - Last Friday a skeleton with part of the clothing clinging to it was found by some of those looking for the body of Leland Hendricks near the banks of the river in Polk county, where it had evidently been washed during the freshet of last February. In the pockets vere found a bunch of keys and, on the suggestion that they might possibly have 'been those of young Springer, they were brought to the Marion hotel. One proved to be a pass key that was made espe cially for the locks of tho Marion, un locking the doors into all rooms. This pass key was in the possession of Springer when he disappeared. Other keys were those for the Marion cash register for the cigar room and for the storage room, all of which were in Springers' possession when he dis appeared.
