"Old Jim." chief trusty at the police station, the man who keeps the fires proing and the hallways swept clean, was release I only Wednesday morning, but having his liberty proved too great a strain or. Jim's nerves, and he got drunk. He Imbibed so much liquor that he could scarcely maintain his equilibrium. So the officers locked him up for. th-y say, the 999th time, "Old Jim Is 60 years old, and looks every bit of it. In the past year or so h has hardly spent a week at a time if , i - - I t 5 away from jail. He was at one time connected with the Westlnghouse Com pany as an expert mechanic and as serts that he invented one of the main features of the Westing-house airbrake. He worked for the O. R. & N. Com pany for Borne time after he came West, and was considered one of its best me chanics when he was sober.

Eaton of 387 Mill street, Port land, the donor of the $50,000 Eaton Hall at Willamette University, expressed con fidence that the $300,000 on which the $100,000 endowment by Mr. Booth depends, weuld be raised without great difficulty. Mr. Katon Is one of the trustees of the university. "There are several men of wealth In Seiem and In other parts of the state who I think would help out with the en dowment fund If the proposition were brought before them," said Mr. Eaton. "I am not a millionaire and cannot pos sfbly give more than I have already sub scribed for Eaton Hail, but I would glad ly donate $100,000 If I were able. "An endowment fund is the only proper means of support for a private institu tion like Willamette University. All the large private universities in the East are heavily endowed and there is no reason why Willamette, the oldest college in the state, should not be similarly favored. "I gave my money to the institution because I think It is the type of college deserving support. The college where moral and biblical truths are taught is the kind that turns out the most desir able citizens for all walks of life. "I do not favor Willamette University because it is in Salem, but merely be cause of the type of the institution. I have lived most of my life in Eastern Oregon, where I started with $7.50."
