Oregon. NEED PRINTED .MATTER. Charles S. Fee, passenger traffic manager for the Southern Pacific, has referred to the Marshfield Cham ber of Commerce the name of a man who has asked for information about this part of the country. Mr. Fee added that the railroad receives many, such Inquiries, but has nothing In tho way of printed matter to send ottt regarding Coos Bay. There Is very little in the way of publications which can bo sent to those who want to know of the place. All cities which are seeking to bring people have no end of that sort of thing, hut Coos Bay seems to bo lacking In printed matter. There Is nothing to send away unless one writes a letter and tells what he hap pens to think of at the time. There should he some literature published In an attractive form and of convenient shape so that It could bo mailed, and It ought to be gotten but at sufficiently frequent intervals to show what Is really going on at Coos Bay and not tell of conditions two or three years ago. GOOD ADVERTISEMENT. Rinaldo M. Hall, a well known writer of Oregon, Is visiting Coos Bay. For a number of years Mr. Hall had charge of the advertising work of tho Harriman lines in this part of tho country, and has gotten out many haudsome publications about Oregon and her resources. Mr. Hall Is here now to gather facts and statistics about Coos Bay. Ho Is connected with eastern maga zines, and has contracted to furnish a ton thousand word artlclo on Ore gon. Of this two thousand words are to bo dovoted to the Coos Bay coun try, and Mr. Hall is now getting the material. Tho benefits of such an article in an eastern mnguzlne aro vast. Read ing matter of that kind Is a great advertisement for a country, and par ticularly Is It valuable in an eastern publication. A PAVING BUSINESS An Industry that seems to present n great possibility for tho people in tho rural districts of the Coos Bay country is that of poultry raising. It seems Btrango that more people do not follow that business. Tho rough land In tho vicinity Is well ad apted to poultry raising, tho climate with its lack of long winters is ideal and right bore at homo la an oxccl lont market. Eggs and chickens al ways command a high price, and whon in other localities whore no Bttch prices aro seemed, and where tho climate and conditions nre much less favorable, tho Industry Is carried on profitably, surely hero It would bo a big paying vocation. Tho mark et always exists locally, and Port land and San Francisco offer an al most luexhaust&blo consumption. The poultry buslnoss Is one of the coming Industries of Coos Bay. HIIIIWfiUMhiUll I The Philosopher Tho I .Man. ''Ilow'd you like to be the ice man in (ho good old summer time?" There are a good many people on Coon Buy who violate that command ment which speaks of not coveting their neighbor's good particularly those who use Ice. Everybody would like to be the ice ntuu, not only in the summer but in the winter us woll. There Is u sort of delightful bohoml nnism mixed with the calling which Venders the ordinary rout I no method of glUug ho much avoirdupois iu re turn for a momentary stipulation bluise and uutedated. You pay moue. it is true oud order bo uiauy cyju rtir) du, but that Is merely a ui.utei of form. Tho ewts. are rep-re-niit' d m a tug, and It Is tin accept ed f.ni that ii-,iiiis iu i i lie Tlu uthi i nun mitt; w w u di.wn on tho North Bend Wharf. It was about 11 o'clock. Awaiting the pleasure of the consignees were sev eral tags tied to sacks. The tags were labeled Ice. The Ice, however, had probably become fretted at its confinement and a little stream of water leading to the edge of the wharf Indicated where It had stolen softly away to Join its kindred. That was, to say the least, very thoughtless of the Ice for it had been sent on a sort of parole from its source of origin to the refrigerator at the other end of the line. The question was raised as to who was liable for the cost of tho Ice. There were apparently no grounds for an argument because the principal party to the case had disappeared. When Coos Bay attains 100,000 people what an important place will the man with the "tongs" hold. No common nldormanlc position will he have. Our lumber kings and coal barons will be held up to public ad miration in the columns of the press; but when the Ice man goes down the street reverent awestruck whispers will proclaim fearfully "Here comes He." When the female branch of the Rockefeller tree twines In concublal embrace with the rugged limbs of the "Ice man's" progeny then might the shades of the departed Monte Christo well rise up and say, "The world is mine." Hciml It Drop. "Well," said the young lady with the sparkling eyes and tho jet black hair, as she toyed with a piece of cake, "I believe the Mormon temple at Salt Lake City Is the most won derful edifice I ever saw." "How's that," quired the practical man, as he uncoupled a piece of roast beef from his fork and then masticated the same. l The young lady gave him a glance of pity. ' "Haven't you ever heard of the Jformon temple? It is a grand work of art and ought to really be classed among the seven wonders of the world. Why, the acoustic properties alone are world famous. I remem ber when I was there. The guide went down to the far end, hundreds of feet in the distance, and then told us to listen. We waited and heard tho sound of something as It dropped on the floor. The guide came back and Imagine our astonishment when he told us that he had dropped a mere pin." Even the baby stopped prattling as this most startling of modern Arabian Night miracles was droned in their midst. "Yes, I remember that," said the practical man. "It was a coupling pin." COMES TO PUT UP NEW ROLLER Mniiufiictiii'ci'.s Scud Man to Ivstab- lMi Xow Itontl Machine in .Maislillcld.
