aS FORMER PORTLANDER AIDED BY DEVOTED WIFE MAKES BRAVE FIGHT FOR HIS LIFE THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAN, PORTLAND, JULY 1, 1906. A LINCOLN HART is well-known and Deloved by many In this city. His wife, Louise Brandt, was the most charming ingenue that has appeared on a Portland stage. 3he was in the Columbia Stock Company when that company was under my control, and subsequently starred with Edgar Baume in the Northwest under her hus band's management. Mr. Hart and his wife have been in the East for over a year now, where his family reside and where the contents of the following beau tiful letter show him to be making a fight for life against a dread disease. I believe I violate no confidence that dear, old Hart would care about when I submit for publication this letter from liim to me. It will tell his friends, and the friends of bis talented wife, about them, and will bring a message of good will. If indeed It is a ead one. I am sure that a prayer for Hart's recovery will go up in this city, in which I Join with all my soul, and I know that these print ed words will tell him that there U noth ing here save genial and warmest remem brance of a talented fellow whose friend ship Is prized. God bless the wife who attends him. May he get well and visit again this city. A. H. BALLARD. Burllngham. Sullivan County, N. T.. June 20. Dear Friend Ballard: You will be surprised to hear from me, but as my time In this life may end at anv time, naturally I am thinking of my past, with Its pleasures and heartaches, but it all seems pleasures to me now. In my thought you are often there, and when I sit In your den In the Marquam with you again as we used to. It seems a pity that the tide of life has taken me adrift. I shall always remember you with much pleasure, and our association certainly was a great benefit to the writer, men tally and socially. I have been going to write you for a long time, and today I read your dramatic stuff in The Oregonlan and 1 decided to "do it now." As you may know, I am up in the moun tains, battling with a case of tuberculosis and I'm going to try and win the fla-ht, for I have so much to live for. though I never really appreciated life so much as now. I contracted the disease in New York, while holding the post as managing editor of the new evening paper. The Broadway News. I conceived the idea of its origin and organized and promoted it (always wishing for you to help me I had gotten used to your co-operation). Well, I ett things running nicely and a good staff, "yours truly" working harder MB. AND MRS. A. LINCOLN HART. than ever before. It was one continuous grind nieht and day. I fairly lived at.the office, where some 18 men were employed. In my enthusiasm, I forgot about myself and had a general collapse, followed by two hemorrhages. I was at once ordered away. It almost broke my heart to leave that enterprise, for I was on the right road to success and everything running finely. I loved the work, for which you had helped prepare me. My wife was ever with me, encouraging me, as she is now, loyal and a little sol dier. If I live, it shall be for her; she is constantly with me and caring for me. We were getting on our feet so nicely, and were beginning to plan a trip to dear old Portland, but just what the outcome will be, we hope to see you all again. Four doctors say I can be cured. How ever, I am resolved to my fate, and if I never see you again I want you to know that I think of you kindly, and I hope you do likewise of me. though circum stances tried to separate us for a time. Even at the time when we seemed to op pose each other, down deep In my heart I wfshed you success. However, perhaps we may have a good laugh over it some day. You and I shall always be friends, because i think we understand each other. We are at the "old homestead," and It's beautiful and wild. We live mostly out doors and subsist on milk and raw eggs. Louise is in excellent health and is sing ing, trying to outdo the birds. I have gained 20 pounds since my break-down. 1 have most of the copies of The Guide and Town Topics, ana they are so in teresting to me. Well. Louise says I must not write too long, but more often, as it is quite a tax for me. Give my regards to any inquiring friends and if you ever see a copy of The Broad way News just remember that. Indirectly, you are quite responsible for its exist ence. It is now a flourishing New York daily. Remember us to your wife: and as we are now getting The Oregonlan weekly, can read your comment, which we enjoy. I would like to hear from you. Yours, as ever. A .LINCOLN HART.

You Suggest a Name We give you a lot 50x100 at G-earhart Park, Clatsop Beach. For the second best suggestion, two weeks' vacation. For the third best, one week's vacation at Kruse's Beach Hotel, Gearhart Park. We want a name, more appropriate than Gearhart Park, a name which signifies the Park as well as the Beach resort of this beautiful gem on the Pacific Ocean. Heretofore cottages and Kruse's Hotel have been built at the Park proper, therefore, the name of Gearhart Park was, up to this season, the right name; but since Mr. Kruse, with his spirit of enterprise, started to make it the leading Beach Resort in the Pacific Northwest, and has spent thousands of dollars already in improvements, such as waterworks, sewerage system, electric light plant, etc., besides contemplating a 400-room up-to-date modern Hotel at the Beach overlooking the Ocean, and through all these improvements has induced many leading families of Oregon and Idaho to build houses and cottages on the ridge facing and overlooking the Ocean it has been suggested to change the name of Gearhart park to a name indicating both Park and Beach. To the successful ones, prizes as stated will be given on July 15 at Kruse's Beach Hotel, Gearhart Park. Here are a few of the names which have been submitted already: COLUMBIA BEACH COLUMBIA CITY SURF CITY PACIFIC CITY SEA CRUISE BEACH WOODLAND BEACH CEDAR BEACH EXCELSIOR BEACH BEACHWOOD OCEAN PARK GLEN-KRUSE PARADISE PARK ARCADIA BEACH SALTAIR PARK EDISON BEACH THE IDEAL SANS SOUCI LONGS WORTH BEACH BEACH MERE MKINLEY BEACH OREGON BEACH PACIFIC BEACH AVONDALE BEACH PARK ESCELSIOR PARK FOREST VILLE BEACH PARK WINDERMERE BEACH BEAVERUSE FORESTRY PARK FAIRHAVEN THE KRCSEDORE Employes of the Kruse Cntertoc Company are not, allowed to participate In this contest CONTEST CLOSES SATURDAY, July 14, 10(16.
