WHOLESALE AND RETAIL
HOUSES FOR BANDON
Robert Mnrsdcn Has Building In
Bandon Reudy For Opening
Liquor Business.
Jack Rico and Jack Marsden re
turned the latter part of this week
from Bandon where they had been
for about a week. The full particu
lars leaked out today and the Times
got It first hand. Wo knew "hefo
was something brewing besides beer
and abided our time till we got all
the facts.
Ever since Jack Rico took charge
of the wholesale department for Mr.
Robert Marsden, there has been
"something doing' every minute."
Jack Is from Tennessee (not Mis
souri) and has demonstrated that his
early mountain training has not been
neglected. When he tells you that a
piece of goods Is thus and so, you
can bank on It that he Is right. He
doesn't hesitate to tell you whether
it Is "straight," "blended" or "moon
shine." The fact Is he knows, and
will deliver to you just what you call
for.
The business increased till they
felt the necessity of expanding and so
took in the growing field of Bandon.
Robert Marsden leased the old Por
ter building for a period of five years.
Immediately the carpenters and
painters' were put to work, with the
result they have the finest building in
Bandon, and the best arranged whole
sale house on the co;wt. It is called
the Gambrlnus Beer depot, with
Geo. Stoltz, formerly In charge of the
bottling works here, as manager.
There will certainly be something do
ing, as George is a hardworking,
genial young man.
In connection with the wholesale
up-to-date bar.
known as Uncle Bob) has about re
tired from active connexion with the
business and Is Interested in build
ing houses for the benefit of the fast
incoming people. At that he is al
ways ready to go as deep In his
pocket as anyone for a donation that
will materially affect the community,
and wo predict that Brindon will
find him the same whole-souled man
Marsh field has.
CITY MAY PURCHASE
CHEMICAL ENGINE
'At a recent meeting of the city
council, matters of improvement were
the chief Items of business. One
of the principal points which had at
tention was the proposition to pur
chase a chemical engine for work In
the downtown districts where there
are stocks of goods which would bo
damaged greatly In case of fire and
flooding by the salt water of tho bay
The council considered the matter
favorably, but no action was taken.
It will come up at some future meet
ing and will likely go through, since
the need for such a convenience is
beyond dispute. Tho Improvement
of Tenth and California was consid
ered and the contracts let to William
Noble and McLean and Masters. The
former Is planking, as is also most
of the latter.

KILLS THREE PEOPLE
Cincinnati Structure, Under Repair,
Kails Into Street Dozen
Are Injured.
Cincinnati. Sept. 14. Two un
known men and one woman were
killed and a dozen other persons
narrowly escaped death In the col
lapse of Dohan's four story shoo
store on Central Avenue, near sixth,
today. The building Is one of the
oldest in the retail section of the city
and was undergoing repairs. Shortly
before noon the building fell forward
Into the street leaving only the rear
sections standing. An unknown
man who was passing by was stricken
down, being dead when reached,
while a woman three feet away from
him was uninjured. The second
man, apparently a laborer, was found
dead In tho ruins, as was Mrs. Mary
Daly, who lived on tho second floor.
Of the men working in tho building,
three were reported missing but all
were later found alive.
AWARDS WILL BE
MADE ON MONDAY
The prizes for the fruit and vege
table exhibit will be awarded on
Monday afternoon by a committee
selected for that business. Mr. Lyon,
tho secretary, hopes to obtain the
services of Dr. Wlthcombe, Presi
dent Kerr and Prof. Lewis of Cor
vallis for this work.
The display was enlarged greatly
yesterday by the adition of many new
contributions and the work of ar
ranging them took the time of Sec
retary Lyon and Willlan Grimes for
the greater part of tho day. Many
visitors wero In the room during the
day and there were many expressions
of approval heard. The showing of
Gravenstein apples Is especially at
tractive, since this variety of apples
is about at Its best at this season,
and besides, there are special prizes
for this variety. Other apples show
well and the vegetables aro numerous
and of excellent quality.
MARSHFIELD HAS
.FAMINE OF COAL
There Is a coal famine, or what
amounts nearly to such in Marsh
fleld. Mr. Mulloy, who has a prac
tical monopoly In that business, finds
himself unable to fill his orders and
Is now CO tons behind orders. The
situation is caused by the session of
court at Coqullle,. where two suits In
which Llbby men are Interested re
quire the attendance of tho largest
part of tho Libby miners as witness
es. In their absence, tho coal buls
ness at Libby was sadly neglected
and Marshfleld' customers are saying
things to themselves. Mr. Mulloy
expects a supply on Monday and will
hurry it out to those who are short
of fuel.
FLOWERS NEEDED.
.
There is n great opportun-
itv for tho ladies of Mnrsh-
field to show their interest
and patriotism tomorrow.
While the fruit and vegetable
display at the Chamber of
Commerce is all that could
be wished, there is a notice-
able lack of flowers, and since
the city is well supplied at
this lafe day with many at-
tractive) varieties there is no
reason why the present show
should not be a floral exhibi-
tion as well as one of vegc-
4 tables and fruit.
SPEEDING TO VANCOUVER.
Canadian Superintendent of Emigra
tion to Settle Trouble.
Ottawa, Can., Sept. 14. Superin
tendent of Emigration Scott today
left for Vancouver to look over the
whole question of Oriental Emigra
tion. He will deal with the matter
on tho spot, and deport any likely to
become a public charge. This step
was taken In accordance with Prem
ier Laurler's telegram to the mayor
of Vancouver.
Ready to Shoulder Expense.
Paris, Sept. 14. Sultan Mular
Hafig, It is reported, has announced
he will pay the cost of the French ex
pedition to Morocco if France evacu
ates that country. Only two columns
of Tribesmen are now reported under
arms in Morocco.
OREGON JOURNAL'S
ELABORATE ISSUE
Portland Paper Puts Out Greatest
Descriptive Resume Ever Issued
On Const.
The Oregon Journal, of Portland,
has issued the greatest special Issue
that has ever been put out of a news
paper offlco on the Pacific Coast.
There are 150 pages in tho Issue and
llOTjf them aro In magazine form
and Illustrated from beginning to
end. It is the most creditable ad
vertisement of Oregon that one could
obtain. Every county in the state
ha3 received a due share of attention
and the illustrations accompanying
the articles descriptive of the indus
tries, agriculture, fruit raising, cat-
tlo raising, and other pursuits are of
the very highest art. Tho Immen
sity of this Issue Is almost beyoud
comprehension, since it covers so
much matter. Coos county has a
whole page devoted to Its interests.
The article was furnished by Francis
H. Clarke, whoso writings have
caused so much favorable comment
from visitors and home people. The
illustrations of Coos county include
Golden and Silver Falls, Arago Point,
the bar, and the interior of the La
Bon Vivant restaurant. The Journal
was engaged in the worjc for a num
ber of months but the delay and its
accompanying aggravations were
worth the while, as the issue Is su
perior in every way and would be
the best advertising one could send
an eastern friend. The cost of the
isue is one dollar, and taking Into
consideration the value of it, the
price Is cheap.
JOB AVORK.
Ask Kramer, about that piece
of job work. He knows how it
should bo done, and will get it
ready for you on the shortest
possible notice. You will find
Iiini with the Times.
Business Volume.
Ten boats were tied at tho B street
wharf at one time yesterday. If any
one thinks there Is not something in
the business line going on In Marsh
field and the surrounding country,
a visit to the water front will show
him his mistake.
PRESIDENT KERR WILL
SPEAK MONDAY NIGHT
The Chamber of Commerce meet
ing for Monday night promises to be
of great interest, and especially val
uable to the teachers of tho county,
who have been requested by Super
intendent Bunch to attend. The
principal drawing card is an address
by President Kerr, of tho State Agri
cultural College. The public schools
aro to give Instruction in agriculture
hereafter and the textbooks have
been compiled for use. Therefore,
the" address of President Kerr will
bo of great importance to the general
public and the teachers as well.
President Kerr, Dr. Wlthcombe
and Prof. Lewis, will arrive In to
morrow by train from Myrtle Pointy,
having engaged private conveyance
from Roseburg. The trio had been
attending a farmers' meeting at
Grants Pass.
Dark Thoughts Bring Evils.
Troubles, sorrows, misfortunes,
and gloomy forebodings coino home
to roost; they love a dark perch, and
this they can find readily In tho brain
that is given to worry. Loathsome
creatures, such as toads, lizards,
beetles and vipers, love dark cellars
and avoid the sunlight; let In the
health giving, disease destroying,
bright an dbeautlful rays and they
scamper to their holes, there to re
main in tho darkness until the light
is gone. Let in the rays of light, of
hope, of trust, of confidence to your
brain and they will dispel the Ill
omened ghouls of worry which have
taken up their abode there; they will
lighten it and brighten It, giv
ing birth to harmonious, healthy
thoughts which shall Invigorate both
mind and body and clear the way
of every obstacle which lies in tho
path of suocess. Bright, hopeful
thoughts, belief in one's ability to
succeed, will Insure success.
Complain of your hard luck and
you will poison the atmosphere of
your surroundings by pictures of
failures which you create In your
mind. Vou can't plant nightshades
and grow roses like produces like.
Sour seed sown will produce Its own
peculiar crop, but good seed planted
always gives' a ripe fruition and an
abundant harvest.
C0NDR0N HAD AN
AMUSING INCIDENT
.Foreigner Runs From Ills Shadow
and Jumps Into Ray. Had
Never llecn In Jail.
Officer Condron had an amusing
experience Friday night with a fore
igner who had been in a fight. Mr.
Condron heard the echoes of the mix
up and went to the scene to learn how
much damage had been done and
whether there was any necessity for
calling an undertaker. The scrim
mage had been over for some time
and the participants were discussing
the merits of tho occasion. When
the foreigner saw Condron, he
started away on a run, and never
stopped for way stations. Mr. Con
dron did not chaso him, but thought
the race was worth the man's es
cape, being so amusing. It developed
that the refugee kept on running un
til he got near the cold storage plant
and then jumped int6 tho Bay,
thinking to swim away. But he
landed In about two feet of water on
a mud flat. He .was seen later In the
evening and related his thrilling
race against time. When asked why
he ran, he said he had never been in
jail, and thought it too late In life
to commence. His repentant frame
of mind made a hit with the officer
and there was no proceeduro taken
against him.
TWO GAMES OF BASE
BALL FOR TODAY
The fans are to have one more op
portunity of seeing an exhibition of
the national game before the fall
rains set in' and today there will be
two games played, one at North Bend
at 10 o'clock in the morning and the
other In the afternoon at Marshfleld,
at three o'clock. The champions, of
Coqullle, will come over on a special
train accompanied by supporters
from the cities along the Coqullle
rlver,and will play teams picked from
among tho Marshfleld and North
Bend players. This will be a fit
ting finale of the favorite game, as
it will furnish amusement for the
whole day, and that is something.
Coqullle lost but one game" during
the entire season, and tho players
on this side wanted to see if they
could gather a combination from cwo
teams that could grab a little of the
glory from the champions'.
KELLY TRIAL WILL BE
HELD IN DECEMBER
The trial of John Kelly, In which
tho jury dlagreed, was reported to bo
sot for trial tomorrow. Later In
formation has It that the case has
been postponed until tho December
term, In order to allow time for sec-.
uring additional witnesses. Under
these circumstances, it is probable
Kelly will bo released on ball again,
and have his freedom until court
sets once more.
BROTHER-IN-LAW
SICK AT BOISE
C. M. Sain, who was over from
North Bend yesterday, has received
information from Boise which brings
news of th,e serious illness of his
brother-in-law, Wm. Balderson, who

FORTY FEET NEEDED
SAYS BOOSTER LOGGIE
Congressman's Views Not Satisfac
tory to Many Coos Bay People,
Who Expected More.
There were many who wero inter
ested In tho visit of Congressman
Hawley who expected him to com
mit himself on the mater of a forty
foot bar, but they find they were
figuring without their host. The
North Bend contingent aro not
wholly pleased with what they ob
tained from Mr. Hawley In tho way
of a statement as to what he believed
the needs of the waterway are. Mr.
Loggie, of North Bend, was in Marsh
field yesterday, and Informed tho
Times reporter that ho was greatly
disappointed in not obtaining clearer
statements respecting the needs of
the Bay. He quoted Mr. Hawley as
being inclined to hedge on the bar
proposition and said tho congressman
wanted to know If a thirty foot bar
with a new jetty vwould not be sufll
clent.expectlng the new work to
scour the channel to forty feet. Mr.
Loggie Is uncompromisingly for a
forty foot project and says that if
ho can help it there will never be
any talk made about a less amount
of water than that. If thirty feet
were possible, then ho believes forty
feet is as feasible, and would not
cost a great deal more. Mr. Loggie
is to be commended for his untiring
efforts in behalf of tho bar and no
doubt when tho dredging is done,
he will be one of thoso to get credit
for its accomplishment.
COOS BAY WILL HAVE
PICTORIAADVERTISING
It is reported that the Chamber of
Commerco committee in charge of the
details of preparing and having
printed n pamphlet worthy of this
section is nearly at tho end of Its
work and will have photographs, and
material 'ready for the next sailing
of the Breakwater. Tho Job will be
done in Portland by tho Bushong
company, and the committee will
spare no expenso in having some
thing of tho best order. 'This same
Idea was advanced last year, and the
old system of printing "Cheap
John" affairs, with little or" ho Ill
ustrated matter, and only mediocre
descriptive matter, Is well to be dis
carded. There has been little ad
vertising matter originated here of
the right sort, and this effort Is ex
pected to All a special need. It will
be profusely Illustrated, but will not
bo overburdened with description,
being simply a means of arousing In
terest in the -country. But this
should bo followed up with superior
advertising, arranged by somebody
who understands tho country and
who can put It in the right light.
SMITH COMPANY HAS
NEW SCEME WORKING
The Smith company brought Its
first load of lumber across yesterday
afternoon under tho jiew arrange
