LINTON OF VALDPORT WINS VIDE APPLAUSE New Oregon Book, "The Earth Motor' Proves Him Regular Jules Verne CRITICS COMMEND WORK i Volume Is Recently Off Press of Statesman Publishing Company "The Karlh Jlotor" is an illus trated Oregon novel, written by Dr. C. E. Linton, of Waldport. The story, which is very entertaining, takes its netting in the vicinity of Ilaceta Head. It recounts the ad ventures of a German, physician in motor to built as to travel through the earth. The learned doctor an nihilates the resistance of solid mat ter, so completely that he moves un derground with the same facility that men travel in the depths of the tea or soar in an aeroplane; and he pilots his machine through many a hidden cave along the Oregon coast. , This kind of a story calls for a plot as sensational as that of Jules Verne's "Three Thousand Leagues Beneath the Sea." The reader may. therefore, look hopefully for the no expected. In this respect he will not be disappointed in "The Earth Mo tor." for the book is fall of surprised Dreamland Features Explained The hero of "The Earth Motor" realizes so completely the hazardous ; nature of tba sub-way journey that ! at the outset he loses his appetlta. and his courage forsakes him. In order, therefore, to be nerved for the undertaking, he says: "I caressed the bottle of 'Ken "J fX IPPODROME VAUDEVILLE TODAY Two Acts Big New-Show Sunday BLIGH Theatre 4 ' tucky Courage with a more lingering salute than usual, and this stimulant seemed to give temporary courage." This with other bacchanalian ref erences seems to explain many of the dreamland features of the tub terranean journey. After a long deep dive into the sea the motor rises like a beaver into a grotto, the entrance of which i& beneath the water level of Hecefa Head. Here the hero is surprised to meet a mermaid. She is alarmel until she learns that he is a me;nlr of the I. O. O. K. of which order she ha heard much favorable comment. She then endeavors to trust him. ut phe is not entirely successful. lence she locks him in a strong cage which is constantly guarded by pea-lions. She supplies him with an bundance of sea food, and in the course of time pilots him through undiscovered caverns" and reveals to htm the mysteries of the earth. and the marvelous within the palaces of the deep. Meet Frontiersman From lKn When he obtains his freedom l.e departs for Nome, whence the earth motor takes him through the sub ways of the land of ice -and .now and gold. There he meets a friend who has explored the moon. The following excerpts somewhat characteristic of the story will give he reader a peep into the pages t f 'The Earth Motor": "A bottle of Waldport 'bug jui"e.' couple of drinks of which would make a cotton tail rabbit spit into a bull doe's face." Referring to the Heceta Head gotto the hero said: Every foot of the way was car peted with sea growth so slippery that it would make a real estate ?g ent blush." "On this floor I slept the sleep of exhaustion, dreaming of things com monplace in this bed of mysUi;-; still I would not trade this exper ience for thd glossiest head of curls in Oregon." Of his voyage to the moon Cyrano de Rergerac. friend of the hero, said: 'Usually when a man in the luo.m comes to that time in life in which he loses his strength of mind and body, he invites all his friends lo a banquet. After explaining what lit tle hope he has of adding to the fine actions of his' life, he asks permis sion to depart. If he has led a bad life he is ordered to live, but if he has been a good man. his dearest friend kisses him and plunges a dag ger Into his heart."
