"Back In Minneapolis. said Mr.
Ovenshtre. "we have a high regard for
Portland. It la the general impression
that Portland la a solid, aubstanttal
city, not at aU of tha 'boom' order,
that la forging ahead on Ha own mr
Its. In ateady. permanent growth.
"I cannot but be enthusiastic over
the prospects for Portland and other
Pacific Coast cities. Your resources
and opportunities are so manifest that
the future la enticingly rosy. Take
your shipbuilding industry, for In
stance. Though It sprang Into elng
at the behest of war. I do not believe
that It will cease when peace returns.
It Is destined to continue, adding Im
measurably to tha permanency of Port'
land's prosperity."
Karl Ordee Xe OpiMsed.
Then the lmperl.il potentate talked
Minneapolis for a spell. He expatiated
on the manifold advantages of the
lustiest twin of the celebrated Mm
aesota children, of its desirability as
a place of residence, and. above all. of
tta sane and constructive loyalty under
the test of war. He spoke of the con
servation order of the Federal Fuel
Administration, which struck Min
aeapolla full force.
"My :atory la shut down, aa are all
others." said Mr. Ovensblre. "but I am
content with the order. Wa could not

with their bunkers empty of coal when
our boys across tha ocean needed the
things wa promised to send them. 1
am confident that, so far as Minneapo

and seek between them and the Rus
sians would go on again until another
battle took place, the Turks In tha
meantime always having been success
ful in sinking numerous cargo boats,
ranging from the smallest fishing
craft to good-slsed steamers.
Caswtaatlaopl la Protected.
The two Turkish vessels also have
formed a strong protection for Constan
tinople from British submarine attacks.
Several timea British undersea boats
penetrated the Dardanelles and Sea
of Harmon to Constantinople, but
were unable to bombard the city be
cause of the protection given by the ex
German cruisers.
The latest account of the Sultan
Yawus Selim was In July of last year,
when the British Admiralty reported
that British airmen had dropped bombs
on the vessel during an air atiacn on
the Turkish fleet off Constantinople
In the Golden Horn. Direct hits were
observed on the Sultan Yawus Selim
and other vessels, aboard which ex
plosiona occurred and fires broke out.
The Admiralty report said the for
mer German cruiser was the center of
the attack and that it was safe to pre
sume, she would be out of action lor
several months as a result of her In
juries. The prediction proved true,
aa the Sultan Yawus Selim since then
has not been mentioned in any of the
reports as being engaged.
The last account of the Midullu was
In June, 117. when the Turkish' War
Office reported that vessel In a success
ful engagement, together with other
Turkish units, in the Black Sea against
Russian land positiona and small war
craft.

'I must admit that the use of the 'J.

Since May 12. 1913. I have never even

Over half a mllllan bright, keen, in
