Three Houses (itilnir up Xeur Mlrae C'ovo Kneli Contains fiU Doom and Window Throo largo summer cottagoi are bolng erected on South Coos Klvnt by Dr. Ira II. llartle, of North llonil, directly adjoining tils summer homo, Mlrac-Covo. Ono of the buildings Is practically completed already. Tho Ideal summer colony group will provldo another beauty spot for tho rlyor that already Is dotted with many summer homos. Hut when Dr. llartlo got tho Idea of such cottages, he Bays ho had In mind tho warm summer days and nights or thnt section during three months or moro or tho year. There fore each house contains Rti win dows mill doors. lit fact that'fl what they aro, out of door houses. There will be a porch extending all around tho sides of each house. Tho hulldliigs will each contain a front room 12 foot by 12 root and a kitchen, eight by eight. Tho bods aro on tho porches and oach houso will bo hlg enough to tako caro of eight to ton people. And too, In tho good old Bummor tlmo pcoplo llko to .dnneo, and for this emergency Dr. llartlo Is havInK flxod up a dancing platrorni, If. by 10 root In dimension. Tho rorco or cnrpontorB Is now at work and It Is expected tho houses will bo finished very soon. They will bo simply furnished. Kvor slnco thoro wasa big Hro In North Bond several years ago that destroyed the largo sash and door factory warehouse on tho wharf, friends or tho doc tor say ho lias been lying awako nights riguiiug out what to do with tho soshes and doors which woro sav ed fro.ni tho flames. Ho bought a great many at that tlmo, paying men to gn tlior them In the bay un'd storo them away for him. Hut Dr. llartlo laughs and says there's nothing lllto foresight when It comos to building Ideal Htiminor cotlagos. Had Hoped Knt-ly Report. That Man net Tello Drowned on Santa Clara Was Knlso Ono Thoro was n sorrowful sight, when tho Btcamshlp Kllburn landed In San Francisco, ' bearing 'two Victims' of tho Snnta Clara disaster. ,Mrs. Man uel Tollo, wlfo or tho dead fireman, came to the dock", looking1 In vain for her htiBbnnd. Ills body has not been recovered. In tho early reports of tho wreck It was not known that Tollo was a viarrlcd man. Ills wlfo was not Bntlaflod that ho had drowned un- untll she camo to tho Kllburn and met members of tho crow, who told her tho story was correct. Sho hud kept up hopes until then, but when her fears were found to bo only too true, sho broke down and wept bit terly. Tho icrow of tho Santa Clara loft tho Kllburn and after settling wuh tho steamship company, loft to se cure berths In other ships, though tho officers In all probability will wait until tho Breakwater Is fully repaired and return to the run with hor. Somowhere in tho sea, or cast up on somo louoly spot on tho coast aro the bodies of Tour members or tho Santa Clara's crow. They may bo washed up or thoy may bo lost rorever. This depends on tho ca prices or tho waves. 1 DEAD IN STOHY OF SICCOND MAN PICKKD UP 1'HOM WKI-3CK Do.oiVs Counted lint Klght Dead on Porch of Cottage at Hasten- dorf Hciich During Wreck Constant havo been tho roports that on the night of tho wreck tho bodies of two men wcro brought nshoro and, placed on tho po;ch of the cabin ntBastendorf Bcacji. Tho body of only ono man was tnkon away from thoro nnd It was that of Andrado, an oiler. Tho question then aroBO, what bccaiuo of tho soc ond man? It la answered in this wise: Thoro was no second man. Those who had chnrgo of tho bodlqs a week ago Tuesday night dcclaro positively that thoro waB only ono man picked up on tho beach. Dozons of persons visited tho porch and verify tho story. Thoro can bo no mystery, thoy sny, for tho eight pcoplo laid out for tho undertaker wcro counted tlmo and ngaln nnd thoro wcro not nlno pcoplo picked up on the beach. And though tho pirates in tliolr wild swoops took almost everything In sight, It Is not believed here that thoy nro responsible for tho disap pearance of ono of tho dead men. urn CALLS IT I DISTBIST ATTOHNI-3YS HAYS PHOSICCUTIOX CAN FOLLOW If (Hoods Aro Held for Salvage Bo port Should bo Made Decis ion Is Cited.

District Attorney Tells Count; Court Hut Kor This Could Build Bonds By Direct Taxation But ror tho ract tho last stato log Islatured 'bawled up' tho Oregon road laws and put corpornto municipalities In sopnrato road districts, tho cities or North Bond, Marshricld, Coqulllo and Myrtlo Point would hnvo been able, by direct taxation to lovy a tax Btifflclont in a very fow years tlmo to hnvo built permanent roads bo tweon them. This was tho heller or District Attornoy Llljenvlst given yes terday to the county commissioners at their meeting n Coiiulllo. District .Must S'aiiil Under tho now- law tho road dis tricts niuilo In the September term of court, and Including tho cities sep arately, must Btntid ftr nt, lcaHt n year. This is desplto tho ract the Supremo Court has held tho law in valid becnuso or tho ract thnt thoro Is no law providing ror any other dato ror the forming of districts again. Quntm Ills Klgures Mr. Llljeiivlst bucks up hla startl ing statement with riguros. Tho tux- ablo valuation of tho property In tho four cities named and tho country In tervening' amounts to about $0,000, 000 annually. But n tow years would havo been necessnry ror the building up or tho permanent roai!s. Under tho bonding system, ho said, at least flvo percent would havo had to bo paid and tho bonds would ox tend over u 30 year space or time. Tho interest he ndds, would '(done oat up tho principal" in that length of time. May Use hi Kiitmo .But this system can not bo advocat ed this year, ror it cannot bo fol lowed. Mr. Llljcnvlst, however, says that It may be followed In futuro yonrs nnd, ir so, may result in per manent roads ovcry bit us speedily as via tho bonding systom.

Much of Stuff Taken Krom Saiitu Clara By Business Men I.st Decide to Tako Xo Action Soarch warrants to find some of tho property stolen from tho mer chants a fow days ago at Bnstcndorf barn near tho wreck will not bo Issu ed. This was decided this morning, though somo or tho business men felt that at least for tho prluclpnl-of the thing tho miscrnuts who broke In urn! took out tho goods should bo made to stirrer. On last Friday tho inorehunts, who hnd goods aboard, wont to tho Bccno on tho wreok.

XKIL, OK POSTAL DKPAItT MIJNT, TO INYIISTKIATH District Attorlncy LIlJcqvlBt sayB that tho taking of goodp from tho Santa Clara in, cases whoro tho goods wcro kept, Is plain larceny and that tho persons can bo pros ecuted where tho ovldenco Is obtain able. Ho says that tho stuff from tho vessel Is scattered all over Marshflold nnd North Bond nnd that somo of those Who took goods tnlk of salvage Should Deport to Company. Mr. Llljeqvlst says that If any who havo taken goods hnvo roal In tent of holding them only for sal vage that they should go to tho Btcamshlp company with a state ment of what goods they lmvo. Oth erwise, says tho attorney, If thoy keep tho goods in their poBesssIon they nro Kiillty of larceny. Ho Bays that overyono who has goods (rom tho vessol should turn In n report to tho company. Tho District Attornoy says that thoro will bo government officers hero nnd that they will look Into not only tho rifling or tho mail sacks, but also tho taking or goods rrom tho vessol. CMcs n Decision. Mr. LUJcqviBt clteB a legal decis ion which ho says appllOB to this caBo. Tho caso is. that of Murphy vb. - Duuuam, nnti is given in mo Federal lloportcr, Vol. 38, page fi07. A portion of tho decision, which applies, Is as follows: "What shall bo treated as wreck of tho sea, and to whom such wreck shall bo considered ns boloiiglng, has been a fruitful subject of 'dis cussion from tho earliest historical period to tho present day; nnd tho disposition of goods found on or beneath tho sea, or thrown upon tho shore, is UHiinlly n fair Index or tho degrco of civilization reached by tho pcoplo within whoso do main such proporty Is found. In a barbarous Htato of society wrecks woro treated as tho lawful plundor of the first comer, or tho lord of tho soil, nnd tho crows were either put to death, or seized nnd sold as slaves. By tho lnws of tho ancient Hhodlans, both ship and goods were sclzahlo by tho lord or tho placo, though nil tho jiorsons woro saved and nllvo; while tho Uoiunns, with greater hu manity and regard for private rlghtH woro particular and express in for bidding any man to mcddlo with such goods uh were wrecked; In making tho plunderer return four fold, nnd In declaring that thoy ro malucd tho property of tho original owner with escheating to anybody, ' unless for want or claim within year mid a day, (whenro the common law period scorns to havo originat ed), In which caso thoy escheated to tho exchequer."
