THANKSGIVING GAME WILL BE GOOD CONTEST The Thanksgiving game of foot ball to take place in Marshfleld Is tho principal topic of conversation when politics is eliminated. Both tho North Bend and Marshfleld players aro practicing every night, and are bringing their teams into snaps. The two teams consist largely of men who havo either played on college teams in tho past or else on athletic organ izations. Bert Dimmlck, manager of the Marshfleld bunch, had his team out on tho sod Sunday afternoon and yesterday to test their calibre. Ho has thirteen men practicing, which, many would say, is an unlucky num ber, but Bert never gives any thought to hoodoos or kindred drawbacks. Tho practice which tho Marshfleld team has been undergoing promises well for their showing on Thanks giving, and every man has tabooed tho usual petty habits which college coaches prohibit. For these reasons and others, Dimmlck believes he has a winning team. Mr. Stanfleld Arnold, manager of the eleven from our neighboring city, is still modest In his claims, and for that reason, It is presumed ho has several things up his sleeve for pres entation on the day when tho big con test comes off. This much was wormed from him, however; the North Bend team Is practicing night ly, under the effulgent rays of the electric light furnished by Seymour H. Bell's Porter electric plant. It re mains for tho i ader to judge wheth er such practice would be of any benefit to a lontball team. But Mr. Arnold beHovs ho has a team that will make s. food showing when It comes to the eventful day. On Thursday mo-.i'ng, the two line-ups will be given together wltn every thing of interest connected with the contest. It is almost a necessity in any com munity to have a Thanksgiving foot ball game if tho inhabitants would observe tho day in all its modern phases, and the football players who will participate in tho gamo of Thursday believe this to be a 20th century fact. The tickets for the game aro on sale at several places and there Is promise of great enter tainment on Thursday for those who witness the game. '-Tho Coos Bay Orchestra; I. O. O. P.

May Sutton twice champion woman tennis player of tho world, has consented to act as queen of the Tournament of Roses on New Year's day.

SWEPT FROM DECK OF LINER Three Little Girls Washed Overboard From Steamer President by Comber. MATE HAD WARNED THEM Official Inquiry Will lie Made Into the Matter by United States Authorities. San Francisco, Nov. 25. Govern ment Inspectors of hulls and boilers Bollen and Bulger, will hold a search ing inquiry into tne causes leading up to the loss of three little girls, Reta and Ada Schotto and Flossie Burman, from the steamer President on the voyage of that Vessel to this point from tho north. This was de cided upon today by Captain Brim lngham, supervising inspector, and as soon as communication can be had with Captain Cousins of the president the Inquiry will proceed. A non-official report of the disaster was filed with tho government officials and it Is because of this fact that the in vestigation was begun. One report has it that the mate of the President warned tho children who later lost their lives, to keep off the deck, just before the big comber that carried them overboard came up from the sea. It Is possible that the investiga tion will be started tomorrow. Get your tickets for Mask Ball at Magnes & Matson's or at J. W. Davis' Cigar Store.

Don't fall to got Mllner's prices on Shot Guns and Ammunition. Goldfield, Nev., Nov. 25. If a plan now under consideration by W. E. Dowlen, manager of the Nevada Goldfield Reduction Works is con- sumatcd, Goldfield will soon have a circulating medium which will re lieve to a great extent the scarcity of real money with which the camp is afflicted. The plan Is to take the bullion produced by the mills, make It into bars and stamp thereon the value, which will bo used as money. The question of the legality of the plan and its possible conflict with the currency laws of the land is now being investigated. At present tho three reduction works of tho camp the Nevada Goldfield, "the Combination and Kinkead mills aro turning out about ?5000 a day, but this amount could easily be quardrupled by run ning on ore of a higher grade. At tho rate of $20,000 a day tho camp could produce ?G00,000 a month in gold. James R. Davis, of the Round Mountain Mining company has agreed to put tho bullion from that mill into circulation In tho same way providing tho plan Is found to be feasible, which would add from $30, 000 to $50,000 a month to the amount available.

A suec lal to tho Record from Mlljs City tells of tho nlleged killing o' John Sovondas. a Pole, at Terry, Satur day, by Mattlo Manilla, an Italian. Both were employes of tho St. Paul Railroad. Two countrymen permitt ed Manilla to escape unmolested, but ho was arrested today and taken to Miles City. Tho men had words during tho day, and Manilla is said t,o have threatened to kill Sovondas if ho did not keep strict sllonco. Tho threat was mado good. Tax Major!

Tho advance sale of seats for tho oneninir nlcht of tho Mr. and Mrs. William V. Mong company In Masonic Opera Houso is very largo and it is very probable that when tho doors open on Wednesday evening the en tiro houso will bo sold out. From what wo can learn, this is a very good "Till Death Do Us Part," is said to bo a very strong character drama on tho order or "Trilby." Tho star parts poctor Jocob, played by Mr. Mong, and Miss HInda Beckman in which character Mrs. Mong will appear, will no doubt give theso two players amnio opportunity to display what ovor dramatic ability they may pos sess, and as tho engagement is for seven nights, with a change of play each ovonlng, It is only natural to suppose that tho play and tho sup porting company havo been selected with a view of making a strong bid for public favor. Thoso who con template witnessing this porformanco will do woll to securo their seats to day, at Butlor's, Front Street, next to Blanco Hotel. i BEATS BORAX KING TO RICH DEPOSIT Los Angeles, Cal., Nov 25 "Twenty-mule Team" Smith, tho "Borax King," has been beaten In a race for what Is claimed to bo the richest borax deposit ever found and as a result a young man named Henry Blumenberg is seriously contesting Smith's right to be the borax monarch. A wild dash in an auto helped Blumenberg. Last August a prospector named Shepard found some queer-looking white stuff In Tick Canyon, which branches off from the Soledad Canyon. A Bhort time ago ho sent a sample to the American Borax Company at Dag gett and also Smith's headquarters. Blumenberg manages tho flrst-named company and has had a hard tlmo owing to being fought tooth and nail by the 20-mule team outfit. Blumen berg's borax deposits in tho Mojave desert were not quite all ho wanted and ho was almost tempted to throw up his hands when there came to him a little piece of white stuff and a noto from a forlorn prospector asking If it was any good. It was just what Blumenberg want ed. Hardly, waiting to grab his coat and hat he jumped out of Daggett on tho first train for Los Angoles. Get ting out at the Santa Fe station ho took an automobile in a frantic dash for the Southern Pacific depot several blocks away. He got there just in time to miss tho train for tho Soledad Can yon. On the platform ho saw W. W. Cale, "Borax" Smith's right-hand man. Blumenberg knew that If Smith's man got to the new borax mine be fore he did, all was lost. He immedi ately hired the biggest and fastest au tomobile ho could get, engaged two chauffeurs, armed them to the teeth, and started up San Fernando Valley on a wild dash for the control of a world industry. After a terrible night ride, over desert and through frown ing canyon, Blumenberg arrived at Tick Canyon, and just as he got there he heard the Southern Pacific train, on which was his rival, whistle for Lang station, the nearest to the mine. . Blumenberg had won. In an Incred ibly short time he had that borax mine cinched and the once forlorn pros pector, Shepard, was given a job as permanent foreman on a salary and Is to receive a royalty upon every ton of borax mined in his two claims. Blumenberg not only secured those two claims, but staked out 20 more for his company. 1 f A. JL Turkey dinner served at Cor thell's Delicatessen, Thanksgiving from 12 m. to 3 p. m.

EAGLES INITIATE 26 NEW MEMBERS Tho Eagles who sojourned to Coqullle last Saturday evening, re port one of the best times of a decade. There were at least 80 members present from Marshfleld to see the doings, which were held shortly after tho excursion train arrived at the county seat. There were about two hundred members of tho order at hand to participate and witness the the ceremonies. Forty birds had been decoyed to the meeting place and twenty-six of these were put through the trying ordeal of initia tion. The remainder will see the mysteries as exemplified In tho local aerie in Marshfiold. All tho boys who attended from Marshfleld say the event was greatly enjoyed. There were members from Bandon, and they brought a band with them to enliven tho occasion. After tho cere monies an elaborate banquet was served for the hungry horde. Tho returning train left Coqullle at three o'clock, and arrived In Marshfleld at four, just in time for tho excursion ists to miss tho early risers who como down town early. Tho Eagles aro making a prodigious growth in this county and the treasury Is hand somely lined for tho future plan of erecting a building for tho order's home. Wo never heard anyone nccuso Mayor Straw of building u foot of sewer with any kind of money. Judging from appearances, it takes SAND to run a campaign. This is explained by tho selection of tho ad ministration's campaign manager. Tho Campaigner or its managers find themselves troubled with a guilty conscience. They cry out that tho beautiful crushed rock block on Front street Is not tho offspring of tho council. No one would blame them for not owning tho corn, yet tho fact remains that tho slush Is there, whether put on by tho city or by property owners, after the city engineer had condemned the material as unfit for the work. Who's who, anyway? Good streets where they aro not particularly needed, and suborbly poor ones where the heaviest amount of traffla Is found.
