LOSER A MARSHFIELD MAN
John McGIHvery Thought to be Own
er of a Fnt Wallet Picked Up on
Portland Streets.
Is your name John McGUlvcry?
Do you know a man by the name of
John McGIHvery? In either case re
joice. The sum of $2046, all in one
roll was found on the streets of
Portland one day last week and they
can't find an owner for it. They
think he may be living In or about
Marshfleld. They have- investigated
all the McGlllvery's up there and
none answer the description, so its
up to Marshfleld to find the owner
of this Juicy roll. There "are many
men in Marshfleld who would like a
$2,000 roll just about this season
of the year and probably some who
would change their name to Mc
GIHvery or even to McGinty for a
roll half that big. But that will not
do. They want the real and only
genuine, name blown in his under
clothes, McGIHvery, and he has
$2,000 waiting him in Portland.
Here is what the Saturday issue of
the Portland Telegram says about
"the matter:
"For three hours today $2046 cash
was being hawked around the streets
of Portland in search of an owner.
Four men who bore the name of Mc
GIHvery turned down the offer ex
tended to them to make it theirs.
The unfortunate custodian was at
his wits' end over the matter, and
faced the dire catastrophe of being
forced to have the cash left on his
hands. Ho tramped the streets and
used the telephone in his efforts to
get rid of the "roll," and as night
comes on he finds himself still in
possession of it, although with hopes
of being rid of it tomorrow or the
day after.
"Incidental to all of these things
is the fact that If Diogenes or who
ever it was that went through the
streets of Athens in seprch of one
honest man were on earth now his
ciuest would have ended. K. K.
Kublt, of tho Kubll Printing com
pany, is the man.
"As ho was leaving the printing
company's plant at 10 o'clock this
morning and walked down Stark
street in the direction of the Ladd &
Tilton Bank, suddenly his eyes spied
n leathern wallet lying on the side
walk. Ho picked it up, and in open
ing it to find the address, his start
led eyes met the sight of $2040 and
some cents, in paper, gold and silv
er. It had evidently been dropped
by a man but a short distance ahead,
for tho street was well filled with
people, but Kubll had not seen It'
dropped and so he searched for the
name. This was found in one of
the compartments. It was John Mc
GIHvery. "Then followed a search for the
owner of tho bills that occupied sev
eral hours of Mr. Kubll's time. After
n canvass of all tho McGHlverys in
town to no avail, by some means Mr..
Kubll becaino possessed of tho fact
that the wallet might be the property
of a man by that name who lives
either In Marshfleld or Marshland,
Or. Mr. Kubll is now hoping that
tho owner will turn up and prove the
right to his property. To that end
ho has advertised tho find and will
turn tho wallet over to the owner
upon presentation of proper proof of
ownership and identification. The
wr"t te nt tho Kubll Printing com
pany's store, 22S Stark street."

Mary had a little hen
Upon her little farm,
Against the wolf before the door
It proved to be a 'charm.
Each day it laid a litle egg,
Which Mary sold at town,
And thus she bought her groceries
And now and then a gown.
The years passed on, and Mary paid
The little mortgage due,
And sent her girl to boarding school,
Her boy to college, too.
She has a nest egg in the bank,
And even keeps a cook.
And everything about her has
A thrifty, well kept look.

ALLEGANY, Dec. 20. A meeting
of tho taxpayers of Allegany road
district was held nt tho Allegany
school house Saturday afternoon for
the purpose of levying a tatf to ap
ply on building the wagon road over
tho Goldon Falls to Douglas county
line near Loon lake. A levy of five
mills was made.
The Allegany correspondent of the
Times -writes than an "old timer" ex
pressed as a result of years of ob
servation that what one person does
to make a living on Coos river, all
will do. This axiom seems to be
verified in the present rush to get
into the chicken business. Several
people seem to have simultaneously
thought that the open sesame to
wealth was to be found In the hum
ble hen. It seems as if her very
cackle sounds like the jingle of coi...
A few chickens are as cood as n
bank account and a large ranch looks
like a gold mine. Among those who
have been preparing to operate the
chicken business on a larger scale
are the following:
Ora McClay ha3 a Brown Leghorn
ranch of about 300 chickens.
Mr. Patten and J. A. Stemiherman
have two large flocks of Brown Leg
horns. S. J. Defreeze and Geo. Gould
have Barred Rocks and Brown Leg
horns. Mr. Pigeon and J. II. Price are
starting their ranch with Rhode Isl
airl Reds.
C. A. Rodlne is putting his faith
and money into the Brown Leghorns.
In addition to these every farm
