firm, of Portland, who bundled the
bonds for the firm.
A lotul of f 175.000 first mortgage
bonds, hearing interest at six and one
half per cent, wore offered, with
security in the form of a closed
mortnaee on the entire property, con
servatively valued at moro thun
twice this nmount. ,The issue was
marked success ut once, Mr. Kiggins
declared. Tlie total block was rpiick
ly absorbed by local investors, as iyl
as by bunks and other inuiviuiiaui
throuichout tho Northwest.
So rapid was the sale of these bonus
that advertising upacs in newspapers
contracted for before the insuo wns
put on tho market, bad to be used to
announce that the issue was som ou:.
The secondary market for these
bonds hns been very fltrnug also, says
Mr. Kiggins. "We still have many
Inquiries for this issue," he says, "and
we endeavor to keep n few bond on

No hotel, however fine, is not quite
complete without uu efficient cnuf.
And lucky indeed, nowadays, is tits
hostelry that can command the serv
ices of a genuine Fremli master of
the culinary art!
Itut the hotel is no luckier than its
pair wis, for they after all art the ones
who must troop into the dining room
thrice daily, to emerge happy or
downcast, according to the ability of
the man who presides over the huge
grilles and ovens.
Ifiners at tle new Kugene hotel j
can consider themselves extremely
fortunate, then, for one of the fin
est chefs in all the west is already
there, with his corps of tried and true
assistants. Monseur Edmund Pierre,
native of Frunce, pupil of the mou
famous chefs of that land famous for
fine food, has already taken com
ma ml.
i .Monseur Pierre came to America
some time ago, and his ftkill quickly
brought him to the fore, lie rose
steadily in the culinary world, until
he held u responsible position at the
famou LaSalle hotel in Chicago, fam
ous the country over for its finest of
foods. Here Pierre received a val
uable training in applying the French
methods of cooking to American me
thods of serving, and his skill and
artistry were further developed when
lio served with the exclusive Alex
andria club in Vancouver, ii, C.
So the jolly Frenchman not only
knows how to prepare food for reg-1
ti la r tasty meals, but he understands
the preparation of daiuticH for any
occasion. He comes here highly reconi
monded by everyone with whom be
hns come in contact. Chef Pierre is
a jolly follow, too, and he expects to
make a host of, friends in Kugene, not
only becauso he feels sura of tickling
the many palates, but because he. is
en ardent sportsman, and a lover of
the outdoors.
"For two reasons I corns to Eu
gene," he nys, in hi slightly French
accent, "one is this beautiful hotel
which is such a pleasure to be In,
and the other well, this is the coun
try of ths finest outdoors in America.
Sometime 1 will serve a banquet for
which I will prepare many fine trout
I myself have taken from your beauti
ful river."
Monseur Pierre also has a hobby
in which he is Intensely Interested.
'Hint is motorbonting. In Portland he
has a swift craft that has won him
many a cup and trophy, and of which
he Is very proud. His only regret at
coming to Kugene is that he will have
to leave tho craft behind. "But I
can go up for nil races," he says, "and
I will be so busy wild my fino bright
kitchen, and my fishing that I will
not really miss it."
dining rdmn is no better than

belief of Kdiuund Pierre, noted French
