State Bureau Exhibit in Ore gon Building Now Is At tracting Much Attention, Unusually keen interest is being taken In mining projects and develop ment possibilities In the state, judging from the number of visitors to the ex hibit of the state bureau of mines at the permanent state exhibit on the ground floor of the Oregon building. Fifth and Oak streets. Pd T. Judd, state ehibit asent. In charge of the exhibit, said yesterday that during the past few days there has been a constant stream of persons inspecting the mineral exhibit and seeking Information regarding mining prospects in t tie state. "A man was lust here wishing to find a copper property that he could operate on shares. He was an experi enced mining man and is anxious to get to work on account of the high value of the metal. "It seems to rue that the great de mand for metals other than sold and silver is going to spell a great devel opment of the mineral deposits in Ore gon," Mr. Judd continued, "for it will now pay to work gold-bearing ores for the other metals found in 1L Hereto fore many Kold propositions have been abandoned because they1 did not carry enough of the precious metal to war rant operations, and the other minerals were not of sufficient value to give the profit. "The war in Europe has created an enormous demand for copper, iron, platinum and other metals, and it would not surprise me to see many mines opened up and developeL, here very soon. It is natural to preaume, too, that, once developed, these mines will be kept in operation, even after the war and tJhe extraordinarily high values." Ttie bureau keeps a register for those who seek information, through the means of which persons Interested in mining projects may get Jn touch with each other. Howard S. McKay, swimming in structor of the public schools, has ar ranged a series of practical lectures and demonstrations to be given in the schools for the purpose of acquainting the young swimmers with the dangers of bathing immediately after eating, and of overestimating their ability in river-swimming. The lectures are given at this time owing to the ap proaching river-bathing season. The causes and effects of cramps are explained in a practical way, so as to impress upon the pupils the advisabil ity of carefulness at all times in river balhtng. Lifesaving and resuscitation claim a major part of the lectures, and the dif ferent holds and methods of grappling with a drowning victim are practiced and perfected by each swimmer. The children are cautioned against reckless river-swimming and are ad vised to do all summer swimming in the park and school pools or the pa trolled bathing-places in the Willam ette. Each boy has pledged to discourage the fool hardiness of his companions, and to watch the beginners and to be ready to lend aid whenever the occa sion demands.

The burglars pried open a window on the back porch. Detectives and patrol- men who investigated the rob- bery declared that the tracks in beneath the window showed tr 4 that it was the work of boy. Money and property of higher jjt value was passed up by the thieves. Brigadier General Jackson Recovering Veteran Army Officer Underg-oes Opex tlon; His Strong- Physique Expected to Be In His Favor. It was hoped that Brigadier General James J. Jackson, the veteran retired U. S. army officer, who for many years has been inspector-general of the Ore gon National Guard, would be able to take part In the Memorial exercises and preparedness parade. He was op erated on last Thursday for a serious affliction, however, and while out of danger and able to be in a wheeled chair, it is expected that his strong physique and will power will keep him on the road to complete recovery.

G. and the preparation for the. forwarding of troops In the Spanish-American war. He was made a brigadier general by act of congress on April 20, 1916. . Mrs. Knowlsnd'i Funeral Held. Seaside, Or..
