-The fire bureau is pluming itself
and patttng Portland on the back, fig
uratively, for the splendid record made
during Fire Prevention week. Every
body, apparently, was on good be
havior, for during the entire . week but
one, fire alarm was turned in, and that
was a false one. At 1:09 a. m. on the
morning, of the opening day of Fire
Prevention week, there was a serious
fire the Grandest, apartments on
Grand avenue. Then not another fire
occurred until .9:09 o'clock Saturday
night, when a house In Lents was
burned, presumably of incendiary ori
gin. During . the entire week, how-
.everi there was not one dollar's worth
of fire loss in Portland.

without question.
Thir talked about ImoerSonal mat

uirzested that they go to the base

peculiar requesfor her, dui sne went
with him and they stood talking for
some time in the door which led to the
steps leading from the basement to

LETTER ASKS FORGIVENESS
Finally hei pulled a letter from his

She took the letter and read its con
tents hurriedly. Then he handed her
one for her parents, Mr. and Mrs. S.
T. Btsokhouse, and another to his
brother, Ralph, who is an employe in
the Northwestern National bank.
; L"No one will know how I have suf
fered for the last three days," the let
ter to Helen said. "I have loved
Helen always and I s always will.
Please forgive me for what I am about
to do."- '
: According to Helen's statements, the
letter went on in the same vein, re
peating over and over again the same
story. The ! letter to Mr. and Mrs.
Stackhouse is said to have reviewed
the romance and how it finally came
to an end. tt gave numerous ' reasons
for the act that was about to be com

told of how he wanted his effects dis
tributed among the members . of his

Suddenly Reed pulled a .?2 caliber
automatic pistol from his pocket and
showed it to the girl.
"Now this is what ! am going to
