"And the state, too, was fighting for notoriety. Why should such a case have been dragged out as It was?

Armed residents of the neighborhood who had been awakened by the ex plosion soon came running to the scene, and with the arrival of Deputy Sheriff Schmeltzer and Night Officer Van I!lar:-eom posses were organized. A search of several hours failed to round up the burglars and no trace of them has so far been obtained. An examination showed that the ex plosive used was black powder, which was set off by a long fuse still hang ing to the safe. The robbery took place about 2 o'clock this morning and is thought to be the work of profes sionals. 1 A half-Inch rope which had been bound about the safe several times and Is supposed to have been put there to keep the door from blowing away, was reduced to shreds. This is said to be the first safe blowing ever attempted In the city. The Holman place of business Is lo cated on Hood IJIver heights, some dis tance away from the center of town, and Is thought to have been selected for robbery on that account, as a much larger haul could have been obtained In the downtown portion of the city.

Now, you men who haven't yet taken the trouble to investigate Columbia Tailor ing, have missed a splendid proposition. First of all, we want you to set your expectations very high. Come here prepared to see a decidedly different institu tion from other Portland tailor shops. Come prepared to see the largest, finest, and in every respect the choicest stock of woolens in the west. Come prepared to find the most com pletely equipped and the most modern tailoring establishment in town. Come prepared to expect superior work. And, last, but not least, come prepared for a saving of a full third of th prices asked by other first-class tailors. " Come, investigate, and then you'll understand why Colum bia Tailoring has made such a remarkable success.
