COOS BAY CAMP DO THEMSELVES HlfoUD Fun and Frolic Characllzc Their I Saturday Evenings Entertainment" I.nst Saturday evening witnessed the eighth anniversary of tho orgiuiUittion ol Coos Hay Camp. No, KM, Woodman of the World, nnd tho uflair was cele brated in a way appropriate to tho oc onion. Tho evening's entertainment began In tho Opcrrt lit use which was dceo rated with tho Woodman colors and emblems. Tho ti ret nuinber on the program was a (Ire ion hy Amlcrton'n Orchestra which, by the way, furtilihed tho music for the entire entertainment, anJ did it well. In fact, M.Uahllcld cati cjnerntulrtto hertelf iition bavin" inch 7 nu urKiiiiisiiuu 111 hit iiiiiiji tu ivn words llev. Loo extended tho welcome of tho camp to their gttcm, and nlso gave some rooiI advice to those men who ara still outside somo fraternal order. Another selection by tho orchestra and the curtain arose upon a scenn in tho Uttlo nilu'.ni! town of Squatter Gulch, and the main attraction of the evening: "Tatters; Pet of Squatter's Gulch" was on. To attempt a review nnd criticism of the acting would bo well-nigh impossi ble suffice it to say that those taking part played their parta very woll and were several t.mea encored. I'o!lbly tins most popular were Misa llessie Brown, aa Tatters, Mr. C. A. Woodward, as Moses, Lilly .lc6(orn and Mr. l'ratt in hia Dutch specialties. At the conclusion of the piny the hall was cleared of tbe chairs nnd those who so desired .;nd they wore not a few enjoyed the pleasures cf the danco until an early hour. The third tloor of tho building was given over to thoso who did not caro to danco, and here carda and other camca and friendly conycrsntion nvide tho time go quickly. In the ante room of tho lodge hall tho Cooa Hay Camp, Women of WcoJcraft had apread an elegant lunch of cold ham, ealadr, cheese, cake, ciffto and other good thiaga which wna enjoyed by some 300 persons. This part of tho en tertainmc.it was in charge of the ladies, which ia sufficient assurance that it waa not only very fine, but moat euctessfu! and not ono 0! the departing gucsta but wcro ready and willing to. vote the Woodmen, their wives nnd daughters royal entertainer. That auch a nicely arranged and finely executed an affair aa that of last Satur day night should be marred seems a pity, but in every town there are a lot of long eared animals who will preaiat in letting their long-oared-nesa crop out to the great dlscomforture of the res pec ablo people, It doea eeem that theEe creatures, who, by tho way, con sider themeelves bright and shining ex amplea of young manhood, should ' know Better, but they don't and are' always very much in evidence To applaud some pleasing part of n performance, ia well, and ia greatly ap preciated by tlio performer fortunate enough to be so favored, hut for heaven's sake, and in tho name of decency cut out the stamping and ear spilling whistle and tho long-eard-ness will dissapear.

They, wcni oui tor a uunion wio mountain nnu about three o'clock in tho afternoon got sight of a panther. They succeeded in treeing it toward dusk nnd forthwith htarted to build a fire with the avowed purposes of staying there till djylight next morning, but-.Mr. Panther would not have it that way and before they were awaro of ita intentions, tho pan ther waa down and the doge of tor it. An hour and a half was consumed before tho doga were successful in npain treeing their gomo. As It was dark it became necessary to shoot by torch light and upon being wounded came down, the dogs gave chaso for tr quarter of a milo where they cornered it in a creek. Mr. Miller, wishing to take no more chances, went up to within 8 feet of the panther and shot at it again by torch light, thin lime killing it. It was a largo one, measuring nine fcot.
