"BUNNY" RELATES EXPERIENCE OF
THE MYSTERIOUS MR. RAFFLES

OUTWIT MANY SLEUTHS
By "Bunny.'
Raffles fooled several thousand
more people yesterday myself In

however, he himself got stung
It was at the Delmonico cafe.
Seventh street near Morrison, that

wrapped, handed to him. And Raf
fles was badly frightened.
Lined directly in front of the door
way were about 50 veterans of the
chase "regulars," Raffles - .calls
them, for he knows them all and
acrpss the street had assembled the
,more timorous ones. The doorway
was clogged with . searchers and
every one who entered was scanned
closely
Early In tha day I had told Raffle to
disguise himself mora fully, for, as

Just the good-looking, dapper chap that
he 1 undisguised; but. as I have said
before Raf fles Is past help. He ap
peared at the Delmonico wearing practic
ally no disguise.
I had already entered the restaurant
when ha arrived so he Bays, fur I did
not see him and had been tackled

otherwise embarrassed, once by Marie,
the head waitress so I heard some one
rail her and again by a sturdy little
lellow selling newspapers.
- Tried, a Bid Door.
He tells the story himself that he
was afraid to go In by the front door,
for that meant almost certain capture,
no he went up In the Calumet hotel,
over the cafe, and attempted to go in
by the side entrance, but was stopped
. by a woman, whom hs had to "stall. '
Raffles had to give up. The crowd
refused to abate In numbers and In
terest in the chase seemed to grow more
keen as' the evenlne- advanced, so for
once In his life he used a little caution
and had an unsuccessful, attempt reg
istered against him. i
To those of you who have not bpen
mistaken for Raffles and there are
few, I'll wager, who have not I'm here
to tell you it's a rather peculiar ex
perience. Get some one to try It on
you.
I want to say to the ltttle fellow who
tackled me In the Delmonico restaurant
that he had the system down fine on
. all points. He entered the cafe and,
looking around, espied mo, delving Into
a bit of fish. He looked mo over care
fully and then went out.
Boon, however, he cams In again and
walked directly to where I was sit
ting. Tapping me on the shoulder in
the most approved manner, whilst hold
ing the last edition of The Journal In
the other hand, he quite clearly repeated
'the magic words. "
,- ' Repeats formula.
' "You are the Mysterious Mr, Raffles
of The Oregon Daily Journal."
I Immediately pleaded not guilty, but
offered to go with him to The Journal

me over carefully, he decided that I
wouldn't fill the Raffles bill anyway.
With tha sunshine yesterday came In
creased Interest In the man hunt Dur
ing the day the streets were crowded
with shoppers and workers, and It Is
not an overstatement to say that fully
two thirds of them were wide awake
on the trail of the mysterious one.
it had been announced that Mr. Raf
fles would visit McAUen & McDon
nell's store, at the corner of Third and
Morrison streets, between 2 and 5
o'clock. When 2 o'clock had but passed
the streets began to fill with the man
hunters and before 3 o'clock the side
walks on both sides of Third street and
Morrison street in the neighborhood of
the store were thronged. Women were
greatly in the majority, though most of
them had stationed themselves Inside
wit- mure.
people, as indicated by the crowd at
McAUen & McDonnell's, pursued Raffles
yesterday than on any day previous.
Baty Is Stopped.
Deputy Sheriff Frank Haty was one
of those mistaken for the mysterious
stranger. He was tapped upon the
shoulder by a large woman, who re
peated carefully the necessary verbal
formula. Baty had some difficulty In
escaping without being taken to The
Journal office. He had to show his
deputy's badge, papers and get several
persons in tne crown to loenury mm.
Mr. Raffles will be at the Grand v

larger crowd of prospective capturers

the theater last night than on any day
preceding.

that Raffles fooled me so completely. I

the snapshot artist to get a picture of
the crowd. Rut I was fooled. He told
me later last night that he had passed

to trtve us a hleh sign, but that we

cony floor the suits and millinery are
located. I took a long look over the
railing at the surging mass of custom
firs, and "Raffles' WieUths on the floor
below, and noted the score of bargains
here displayed. Now of course every
one Is supposed to understand their
own business, but I can't for the life
of me see how this firm can pass out
such great values as they had offered
yesterday, for the money; and the mul
titude were surely going to the bar
gains right.
I tried to attract the attention of
Mr. Anderson, the sales manager, but
evidently his mind was busier looking
out for the welfare of his customers,
than on the "mysterious man," as all
attention possible was given to the
hundreds of customers who were tak
ing advantage of this great sale, which
Is to last fur a few days yet. so I
understand.
It was sometime before I was able
to leave here, but I managed to make a
getaway about 4:15 o'clock, passing out
the same door as I entered, and In
going out I accidentally knocked my
foot against the little baby go-cart
standing near the doorway, and the
lady In black looked at me with a start
and pulled the go-cart back towards
her as If to apologize for having It In
my way.
Again on Outside.
Once on the outside, I felt at liberty
and started to leave the crowded corner
when my manager gave me the "stall
sign" and I saw the picture man taking
some pictures of the crowd, so I stood
for a few seconds In the heaviest part
of the crowd to give him a chance.
Then i hurriedly made my sktdoo just
