Euscne i now the second largest
wholnulo lumber district in Oregon,
according to Crow's I'ncific Coast In.
dex, received locloy by leading lum
bermen in Kugene. This c:ty nud J.nne
county pluy n prominent part in tlie
survey compiled by Mr. Crow, and
several mines ore devoted to a uc
scription and illustrntioDB of tlie Lano
county lumber district.
. KiiKcue's location on the main line
of tlo Southern 1'ucific, with five
brum's lines merging m tins city, una
thi fact that this is the southern tcr
minus of the Oregon Electric are, held
to ne distinctive advantages.
Just wiint part the Natron cutoff
will ulny m the city a growth Is dif
ficult to estimate, when it is taken
into consideration that it means the
opening of Boinc of the best timber in
the state in both western pine and nr.
., "Already new mills arc springing
up as fust as, the ruilrond lays its
rails, aays the survey, "and tliut tnis
business will Inrgely come Into Ku
gene, especially all that west of the
mountains, is questioned by no one.'
"Frutu the standpoint of a variety
of facilities, the mills in the Kugene
territory have no equal, for here you
find large mills capuble of getting out
anything from roiiKJi cutting up to the
finest finished upper's mid also n
multitude of small and medium sized
plants working In smaller timber tint
specialize on cutting sucli us ties, tim
bers and bridgo plank. Over 100 of
these mills are located within a radius
of 30 miles of Kugene. .
- "Through its advantageous location
Kugene is destined to be(corae import
ant as a rc-manufacturing-in-traniit
poiDt. There are already two plants of
this kind one in the city of Kugene,
and the other in Springfield."

tuinly, the dredging of the river to a

which will admit vessels drawing It)
feet to enter the harbor and proceed

' The completion of the highway to
the coast, enabling the residents of
the valley to reach the beach In three

development, nnd the indications are
that tills will seem small in compari

next few years."

Lost Creek Store '
Is Found Looted
The cabins and store nt tho Lost
creek ruuch above Belknap springs
. were robbed at about the sninq time
the eight summer cottages on the
McKemsie were looted, report Frank
H. Taylor, sheriff, and Van Svarver
tid, deputy, who made ft trip to the
stene of the robberies yesterday.
No auto truck tracks were found
near the Hessee, Miner, and Keegan
cottages, the officers discovered. It is1
believed the looted articles had been
carried to the highway, The robbers
apparently wished to outfit a home,
as they took in tho cottages articles
of the same kind, and only ono of
each.
The Lost creek store Is closed dur
ing the winter, but a man at lllua
River goes up once n week to see
that the stock Is all right. Ixist time
be found the store had been broken
open and looted.
Living up to her pouularity, Norma
Talmadge proves that her laurels are
well csrned in her new picture, "The
Only Woman," now playing at the
Rex theater. The picture showed yes
terday for the first times, and left a
decidedly satisfied feeling. .
Norma is seen as a young woman
who sacrifices herself at tho altar to
buvo her father from disgrace. Sba
vows that she hates her husband, and
will never lose him, but the great
shipwreck alters the situation, and
some strong acting is displayed. Ku
gene O'Brien pluys the part of the
husband.
Perhaps the greatest scene in the
picturo, is tho shipwreck. It is ono
of the most realistic storms ever film
ed, for the simple reason that it wus
a real shipwreck scene,' and not a mo
tion picturo "fake." i
At the Castle is the jovial man of
the west, Hoot Gibson, In "Tho Kid'n'
Kid from I'owder River." It is a west
ern picture, as I lie name implies, and
Is a film with punch.
The Helllg will again show Elinor
Glyn's "His Hour." ... .
