Project For Closing It to Be
Taken Up In January
Three Mill Port Levy.
.The Port of Coos Dny Commission
nfter nn extended discussion of tho
proposed closing of the Coos Klvcr
cut-off decided to mnko tho mnttcr n
special order of business at tho Jnn
unry meeting and to givo notice to
thoso favoring and opposing It to be
present and present their reasons
why.
This morning only thoso opposed
to It wero represented. C. F. Mc
Knlght nppenrod for them and there
were a dozen or more ranchers from
Coob River and Catching Inlet pres
ent. L. J. Simpson suggested that tho
objection of tho ranchers to tho clos
ing of tho cut-off bo laid beforo Capt.
PolhcnniB who had urged the closing
In his special report and got his opin
ion. C. F. McKnlght said that tho
ranchors wero not willing to accept
tho report of an engineer on a prop
osition which long years of familiari
ty had made them good judges of.
Tho commission voted to lovy a
thrco mill tax for the coming year
to rnlse rovenuo for general Improve
ments In the harbor and Inlets. This
will ralso between $20,000 and $2G,
000. Tho commission nlso ngrccd to go
ahead nnd build tho dock for tho
Standard Oil company Just as soon
ns tho contract Is Ilxcd up. Tho
company Is paying twelve cents per
ton docknge. The compnny wanted
to lonso tho ground nnd build Us own
docks but tho commission would not
consider this. Tho dock will cost
about $100 and the rcvonuo from this
one contract alono will pay for It In
n fow years. Then It can also bo
used In connection with tho lnrgo
dock which tho commission plans ev
entually to build thoro.

Heart-Broken Eugene Woman
Hears Highly Educated Son
Deny His True Identity.
EUGENE, Ore., Nov. 13. "Some
dny, the real Bernard Marvin will
hear of this fuss that Is being stir
red up hero nbotit dual personalities
nnd lost memories and come bnck to
this town, and thoro will bo an nw
ful row," was tho statement mndo
Thursday by a man who In tho face
of his almost heart-broken mother,
maintains that he Is George A. Lewis,
a working man, and not Bornnrd
Marvin, tho son of Mrs. Lelbcrg, nnd
a Berkeley graduate.
"Ho will bo one of tho mnddest
men In the United States," he con
tinued. "I nm mighty glad that i
have kept clear In the matter, all tho
way through. Ho can't havo any
thing on mo when he docs como
back."
Mother Positive of Son.
His case Is a complete puzzle to
nil who havo spoken to hlni. It Isl
beyond belief that a mother could
bo mistaken In her own child, when
she hnd booh him less than two
months ngo. Mrs. Lelbcrg Is a prac
ticing physlclnn, and a woman of
brilliant education and wide knowl
edge of tho world. Sho does not ovon
attempt to verify her knowledge, be-
causo sho Is positive.
On tho other hand, Marvin, who
persists that his name Is Lewis, Is
equally positive that ho Is a strango
victim of n caso of mistaken Idoii-
tlty. Ho tnlks rationally and clearly,
and when listened to It Is nlmost Im
possible not to bollcvo him, for ho Isl
so unmistakably sincere. His hnzt-j
ncss as to his past previous to two ,
months ngo Is tho only Irrational ,
mark about hlni. j
"If there Is n mnn In tho world
whom I would like to meet m oro
than any other," said he, "It Is this
Bernard Marvin. Imnglno yourself
being taken for hor son by a woman
you never saw before. I read a
story not long ngo whero n woman
mistook n mnn for hor husband, and
was posltlvo for a tlmo that sho
couldn't bo mistaken, but I novcr
supposed that I would find myself
In nbnut tho same position. It Is
unheard of. I sometimes get to won
dering myself If It could bo true, but
I know who I nm." '
Notwithstanding that ho mnlntnlns
ho Is a plain logger, ho talks enter
tnlnlngly, and at considerable length
of tho classic wrltors. Ho knows
Virgil woll, nnd Is fnmlllnr with tho
philosophy of Plato and Aristotle. He
Is a closo student of Homer, nnd tho
wanderings of Ulysses through
strnngo lands nnd amid strnngo ad
ventures hold a peculiar fascination
for him. ho snys. (
Dr. W. Kuykcndnll, who has mndo
a caroful examination of young Mnr
vln, snys that thoro Is no doubt what
ever that It is n strnngo caso of dual
personality. Thoro Is not tho remo
test possibility, snys Dr. Kuykcndnll,
that Mrs. Lelbcrg could bo mistaken,
nnd, In nddltlon, young Mnrvln's
mind Is n blank beyond six months
ngo.
"Tho cnuso might hnvo been n
blow on tho skull and It might hnvo
been overwork nnd ovo strain," said
tho doctor. "Ho Is likely lo rhangn
bnck to his former solf nt nny tlmo
without specific cause."

There was pressing need of a good reliable home
piano that could be sold at a price within the reach
of the common people. Adam Solum originated
and produced that piano in the manufacture of the
unsurpassed instrument bearing his name, but the
price would still be too high for the average piano
buyer unless a way be found to distribute the pianos
direct from Factory to Home, and thereby save
each customer the jobbers' and agents' big profit.

Palmer's Piano Purchasing Plan
enables you to receive your Piano direct from Fac
