Go DeOp Sea Fisliinjj. Twenty five or thirty Marshfleld men yes terday tried deep-sea fishing and ac cording to all reports, tho deep-sea fish got more of them than they did of tho deep-sea fish. They started about G o'clock on tho launches Fish and Coaster. Although It was a beautiful day and almost perfect ly calm, everyone of them with pos sibly two or three exceptions got tho worst attacks of seasickness that they ever experienced. They were so sick that they didn't try to fish at first and then the fog came in and made It impossible for them to do so. Some of tho Coaster party succeeded in getting off at Big Crock and walked back in rather than to face the ride over tho bar again. If you want to know how sick they got ask Wm. Ekblad, George Goodrum, O. L. Hopson, P. Tully, Chas. Hunter, W. F. McKee, or any of tho party. FIVE SHORT WORDS MAKE ONE LINE. FOR SALE Choice Burbank seed ""potatoes. Apply to A. O.

"Did you ever notice how a wo man strikes a match?" remarked Frank Parsons as bo How a Woman Strikes a Match. applied a diminutive" flro stick to his af tor dinner cigar. "Just watch the next time you see a woman lighting a match and ten chances to one she will strike It away from her. Men always strike matches toward them. It Is tobacco that causes tho differenco between tho sexes la match striking," ho said. "All of us unconsciously strike matches to ward what we are going to light. Woman always Is going to light a lamp or a Are; that is further off than the match, so she strikes hor match away from her. But man is always going to light a pipe or cigar. that is nearer, so he strikes match toward him." his "Why don't somo of you Coos Bay boosters agitate and invite the Mil waukee road to Coos Bay," remark ed a traveling man at the Chandler today. "Do you know," he continu ed, "that the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railway is A Great numbered among tlio Railway. great transcontinental lines of the country, as a result of its extension to Ta coma, Wash. This gives the road, a total mileage of 9,000 miles and" it is thought that the rapidity of construction of the new link ih tho system has established a record. Work was begun just three years ago and in that time 1,400 mll6s of track has boon built, which called for the excavation of CO.000,000 cubic yards of material, the driving of 350,000 yards of tunnels and twenty miles of bridges built, with the laying of 200,000 tons of 85 pound rails. Tho total cost has been $S5,000,000." "I see," remarked a traveling man at tho Chandler today, "that your City Marshal pays fivo cents each for rats. Did you know that tho United States Bio Uso For logical Survey, w.hlch Rat Skins. Is taking especial no tice of the damage dono to property by rats, estimates it at high up in the millions o dol lars annually in this country, thinks that the problem of tho extermina tion of tho pests may bo solved, if the use of rat skins shall become moro goneral. Tho Survey reports from England to tho effect that in London alone rat skins to tho valuo of $200,000 are annually utilized in various industries, Sanitary meas ures taken by Denmark and Great Britain for killing off the rodents have led to tho use of their skins In many ways, among them for bookbinding, photograph frames, and for thumbs for ladies' gloves. To such an extent has tho demand grown that many persons have been earning as much as 90 cents a day In capturing tho rats. Tho Survey had already proposed a vigorous campaign for this summer against rats as destroyers of property and as carriers of disoaso, and the Indus trial utilization of tho skins is wol comed as an effective ally."
