The building will occupy a full lot. and 3nll have a frontage of 50 feet on Sixth trm and 100 feet on Salmon. WORK FOR NEW COUNCIL Business In Store for City Fathers of St. Johns. Murli work is in store for the new Council for St. Johns, and the prin cipal business will be to get the City Hall finished. Mayor-elect Couch said he would look Into that subject at once and start the machinery in mo tion for completion of the building. According to Engineer C. L. Goodrich, the city Is not In any danger of sus taining loss on account of the failure of contractors Youngferdorf & Son. but It Is understood that there are a good many unsettled bills for mater ial that somebody will have to pay. The city has paid out on the building $2000 and the contract for Youngfer dorf & Son was nearly $8000. so that the city has $6000 with which to settle accounts with. But the people have become tired of the delay in the erec tion of this building, and expect the new administration to complete it at once. Mayor Couch is a business man and the people elected him because It was considered that he would look after affairs of the city very much as he does his own. Much censure was piled on the pres ent city government for the reason no clear financial reports were ever made showing receipts from all sources and disbursements, together with the bal ances in all the funds. The charter is very clear on this subject. Several reports were made, but none was con clusive, for the reason there was no co-operation between the departments of the city government. The City Treasurer, who is the custodian of all funds. Is being urged to make a report showing receipts, disbursements and cash on hand in all the funds. He was re-elected for the new term. The Council will have few new men. B. T. Leggett. W. Ii. King, W. W. Raser and S. L. Dobie have been mem bers before. Mr. Leggett served as Councilman during the time W. H. King was Mayor.

' Asked about matters In the Coos Bay country, he said: "The wholo Bay country is improving. The great difficulty at this time Is to get houses built fust enough to accom modate the people who are settling In the Bav towns. Newcomers are asrlvlng on very boat, from all parts of the country.

Smith, a Minneapolis millionaire. Baa bought the Doune Cumber Company's mill at Bay City, and will remove the machinery to Marshfield. where a mill to t-ost will be built and equipped to bundle the lumber business of that sec tion. Most of the lumber manufactured on the Bay goes to California port.

Strange Discovery Made by Bereaved Parents Since the Tragedy. UNITED IN THEIR GRIEF HOLD RECEPTION TONIGHT .Mi- Disney's Mother Attends Fu neral of Daughter's Slayer and Sends Flowers His Friends Reciprocate Kindness. When Roscoe H. James committed sui cide Sunday night after shooting and in stantly killing: Miss Grace N. Disney, his former sweetheart, he died in ignorance of the fact that the young girl whom he had sacrificed on the altar of his selfish passion was his distant coustn. Miss Dis ney, too, never knew that the rejected lover whose vengeance she feared was a blood relation. But this remarkable dis covery, proving the truth of the old saw that truth Is stranger than fiction, has been made since the tragedy. When they met for the first time at the morgue in presence of their dead. Mrs. Disney, the widowed mother of Roscoe James' victim, and C. W. James, the boy's father, fell into conversation re garding the early lives of the young peo ple, with the result that they eventually found themselves to be cousins. Lp to that moment they had been wholly una ware of the relationship. The discovery of this relationship and their common sorrow have cemented what promises to be a lifelong friendship between the parents of the dead boy and girl. Yesterday morning Mrs. Disney at tended the funeral of Roscoe James and one of the many floral pieces that lay on the suicide's coffin was sent by her as an emblem of her forgiveness. At the funeral of Miss Disney at 7:30 o'clock last night Mr. and Mrs. James were present and their tribute to the dead was a floral emblem. At both services large numbers of friends yere present. At the James funeral. Rev. F. I,. Young, pastor of the Methodist Episcopal Church at St. Johns, and Rev. T. B. Pord, pastor of the Sunny side Methodist Episcopal Church, offi ciated. Mr. Young conducted the funeral of the boy s grandfather, who died several years ago in Baker City. The same cler gymen later officiated at the funeral of Miss Disney. Roscoe James was burled In Rose City Cemetery. The body of Miss Dis ney was shipped to Warren, Or., where, before the interment today, another brief service will be read in the pres ence of many friends of the dead girl, who lived there. When young James killed Miss Dis ney and committed suicide, both bod ies were taken in charge by Coroner Kinley. and this led up to the discov ery of the family relationship. After the discovery, Mr. and Mrs. James assisted Mrs. Disney in making funeral arrangements and gave her all possible aid in her hour of sor row. - , As soon as news of the tragedy reached Salem, Mr. James, who is Su perintendent of the Oregon State Pen itentiary, hastened to Portland with his wife. They reached the city early Monday morning. Their son died sev eral hours before their arrival, and their first call was at the Flnley morgue. After seeing the boy's re mains, both asked to see the body of Miss Disney, whom they had never known, but of whom they had heard their son speak when he was visiting them last Christmas. Miss Disney's funeral last night was attended by many former schoolmates. She was a graduate of the Portland High School and was popular among the students while there. Mrs. M. J. Magers passed away at the family home in Salem. March 26, aged 7S. She was born in Morgan county, Ohio. December 22. 1S2S. In company with her late husband. Dr. W. B.

Justice Reid's decision was strongly adverse to Mrs. Currier and the langu age he used was scathing. He de clared from the bench that Mrs. Cur rier "held up" Mrs. Ordway for an outrageous sum for costumes and scenery for the play "Oregon" and also declared himself of the belief that Mrs. Currier threatened Mrs. Ordway with bodily harm, should the latter go contrary to Mrs. Currier's wishes, at any time while the play was being put on. Justice Reld said he regretted his inability under the law to tax Mrs. Currier heavier, as he declared she should have been forced to pay a larg er sum to Mrs. Ordway. The sum Mrs. Currier must pay Mrs. Ordway $249.50 was the amount Mrs. Ordway swore she gave Mrs. Currier out of the kind ness of her heart because Mrs. Cur rier was a San Francisco, refugee.

Hostility of the Southern Pacific Company to labor unionism among its employes of a certain rank was admitted today before the ar bitration board which is considering the demands made by the telegraph operators, by W. S. Palmer, general superintendent of the company. Palmer, in response to a question by Stanley Moore, spoke for two hours and ten minutes. He said: "The policy of the Southern Pacific can be expressed by the Instructions which were given by our present general man ager over a year ago to the end that no dispatcher or employe of any description could expect promotion to an official po sition as long as he retained his connec tion with a labor organization, and that so far as that is concerned, the man would not be allowed to resign in order to get that promotion at that time: that he must show his willingness to take the side of the company as against an or ganization, or to be absolutely independ ent. It is not taking sides so much as it is the independence of the man." The railroad will close its case tomorrow. to this amount, each district received 50. InfeTscholastlc Ball Game.
