A good news paper Is the most valuable asset In any community and Is certainly worthy of the aupiiort of those to whom Its columns are always open for the discussion of questions of Im portance regarding public Improve ments, school, etc. Therefore, It Is believed fhnt every home In Oregon City and the adjacent country will soon be on the subscription list of The Enterprise. The candidates In The Enterprise contest should not only receive the moral, but the ma terial support In the district In which the varloua names are entered from. It la Just a plain case of boosting your most useful, valuable and most necessary enterprise. Subscribers Oat Full Value. Candidates when entering a con test of this kind should look at It from a business standpoint realizing that when a subscriber favors you with a subscription he la getting valun received for every cent tnveated. If persons you approach for a subscrip tion are already subscrlbera have them renew, or prevail on them to aend It to an Eastern frend which will prove a valuable medium to advertise Ore gon -Olty and the adjoining commun ity wherever It la sent.

The blse. which was started by an un identified person, Illustrated the grounds, and a panic started among the thotiHands gathered lu-the audi torium. But for the preaence of mind of the manager of the Young Men's Christian Association classes, which were giving an exhibition, there might have been aerlous results. Horses near the fire atampeded, and aome- one In the auditorium called for men to help extinguish the fire. Immed iately there was the greatest commo tion In the auditorium, and at least hair the crowd, estimated at 3.500, rushed pell-mell from the building;. it Daley, of the Young Men's Chris tlau Association, who was performing on the rings, realised that there waa no danger and continued with hla ex hibition. The crowd, however, con tinued to rush from the building. The manager of the classes went upon the stage and assured the crowd that there waa no danger. Thla had a reaHsurlna; effect, and In a few' min utes the audience returned to the auditorium and witnessed the remain der of he exhibition. One man waa allghtly burned In extinguishing, the fire.

MOUNT PLEASANT TO -HAVE THREE TEACHERS ANOTHER ROOM WILL BE ADDED TO THE BUILDING THIS -SUMMER. The special meeting of the achoM board and taxpayers of Mount Pleas ant held at the Mount Pleasant school house on Thursday evening waa large ly attended. The matter of enlarging the achool building and adding anoth er room was contested by some of the residents of that place, but waa finally adopted. Aa there are more than 115 pupils attending the school and the pupils are crowded into two rooms It was thought advisable to add the extra room. The two teachers heretofore have had too much work. The school board, with the aid of prominent taxpayera of the district, got permission to build the addition. During the past year many persons have moved Into the school district. An eight mill tax levy was also passed, five for malntalnejice, and three for Improvements. T. J. Gary, county- achool superintendent, was present and addressed the assembly, being In favor of this tax and of add ing another room. Another teachor will be elected by the achool board tn a few dBya.

Mrs. Norrls had been III for some time, and Saturday mornlngf her condition became so aerlous that It waa decided to operate upon her at once.

The attacks, however, were acute and after each one the patient was considerably weaker. MOTHER OF BOY HERO DIES IN PORTLAND KENNETH MORRISON, 12 YEARS OLD, HAS SECOND BE REAVEMENT IN WEEK. Mrs. S.

Burmeister & Andreseif OREGON CITY JEWELERS Suspension Bridge Corner MASS WILL TRY TO T SHERIFF GOES TO OLYMPIA-TO SEE AUTHORITIES ABOUT SUSPECT. PROBER SURE HE HAS RIGHT CLUE Finger Prints and Other Feature o Coble Tragedy Are Identical Those In the Hill Killing. Sheriff Mass went to Portland late last night, and will leave at 7:30 o'clock thla morning for Olympia, Wash., to confer with the authorities there regarding Swan Peterson, the suspect under arrest In connection with the killing of Archie Cobler and wife, at Rainier, Wash. This couple were slain In Identically the same manner aa the Hill family at Arden wald Station, and the authorities are virtually agreed that both crimes were committed by the same person. Dr. George A. Cathey and bis brother,' of Portland, have compared photo graphs of finger prints found in the Hill home and in a room ot a hoel at Rainier and are convinced they were made by the same person. There is also other strong evidence that both families were killed by the same fiend. Peterson Is being detained at Tacoma. With a scientific preparation, used In an atomizer, the Cathey brothers traced Invisible bloodstains through the hotel at Rainier to the room which had been occupied by Swan Peterson the night of the Coble tragedy. Every object touched by Peterson showed the tell-tale bloodstains under the chemical formula applied by the Port land Investigators. When the Coble crime was first reported, Sheriffs Mass and Stevens telephoned to Rainier to have a care ful examination of the bodies made. They had been mutilated In the same manner as the bodies of the members of the Hill family. Apparently, the crimes are aa alike as two peas, the terrible details cor responding exactly to the letter. It Is the motive and peculiar form of crime exhibited In the Hill and Coble cases that forms the closest link be tween them. .While It ta possible the Coble murder may have been the re sult of suggestion In the Hill case, the smaller and more vital details are such that the suggestive impulse could not have brought about their duplica tion In such an unusual degree.

Lump at Office of Clyde McCrea Grade Is Same aa Coal Mined In WaahlngtOfi " A lodge of coal three feet thick, and which Is believed to extend through a large hill has been found on a farm near Molalla. The finder who Uvea In Molalla. haa brought several samples of the coal to. tae office of Clyde McCrea, In this city, but asks that his name be witheld until he Is certain that he will derive the bene fit from his discovery. The first samples were brought to Mr. McCrea about six weeks ago, and he thought , no more of the matter, until the man visited him Thursday with larger and better samples. There Is little lustre to the coal, but It la considered aa good. If not better, than much ot that mined In Washing ton. It Is not near so good aa the Arizona coal. The man told Mr. McCrea that he' had found the coal while digging in the side of the hill. After his visit with the first samples he was told to return to the bill and find out the thickness of the ledge and whether it extended far Into the hill On his second visit he reported that the ledge was three feet thick, and he waa con fident it extended through the hill.
