The Modern Woodmen of America were in full possession of North Bend last evening and adopted a class of thirty-five new members in Eckhoff hall. Fifty members of the Marsh field camp were with the North Bend camp and took part in tho adoption exercises. Quite a number of Wood men from Coquille also took part. It Is said that the adoption exercises were very Impressive and Mr. Smith, the well known dancing master, is entitled to great credit for the man ner in which he drilled his team. After the adoption exercises the Marshfleld camp united to participate in an elaborate lunch arranged at the Hotel Oregon for the occasion. Speech making was indulged in and a season of feasting and merriment was en joyed. The order is evidently on tlje boom on Coos Bay. fl The occasion was a joint adoption by the Marshfleld and North Bend lodges of the Modern Woodmen of America, and the celebration of the silver anniversary of the order, which was commenced twenty-flve years ago. The joint adoption was called to order by Venerable Counsellor Monroe, who invited Jhe following Marshfleld officers to take seats with the North Bend officers: Francis H. Clarke, venerable counsellor; A. M. Prentiss, w. a.. D. A. Jones, clerk; A. L. Foster, barber; W. N. Eckblad, escort; E. Banderob, watchman; O. O. Lund, post consul; Aug. Frlzeen, deputy; G. N. Bolt, manager, F. J. Hayes, C. H. Walter, Duncan McMil lan, A. W. McKay, C. S. Dodge and Frank Sweet, of Acme., Ore., were al so present. Charles J. Scalpe. Emll Ogren, R. Monteith, H. A. Browne, G. A. Han son, George Ramberg and W. J. Mor row were candidates sent clear through their degrees. The band of the North Bend Wood men met the visitors from this city and Coquille at the wharf, accom panied by the degree team in uni form, and escorted them from the launches Merrlmac and Messenger to the lodge quarters. After the adoption was concluded, which was about 12 o'clpck, Francis H. Clarke gave a talk on Woodcraft, and Ned C. Kelly of tho Coquille lodge also spoke. After the speech making the entire gathering adjourned to tho Hotel Oregon where a sumptuous repast was served, tho assembly bringing to a close shortly after two o'clock.

MAY BE FIRST Local Engineer Believes Hill's Coast Line Will Beat Drain Railroad. Sentiment on Coos Bay regarding railroad construction is to the effect that the Northern Pacific will be running trains into this city before the Southern Pacific road between this point and Drain is completed. This Is the firm conviction of a num ber of men who claim to be on the inside regarding the work of sur veyors who have been on the coast between this point and Seaside, at the end of the Northern Pacific road on the coast of Oregon, "I know for a fact," said Engineer Charles Codding, this morning, at tho chamber of commerce, "that the Nor thern Pacific has had men in the field between Siuslaw and Tillamook for tho past two summers. They havo been going over the coast thoroughly lookingfor a good route for the extension of the road from Seaside down the ccast to Siuslaw and to Coos Bay. "The activity shown by the NoK thern Pacific on tho Oregon coast is proof that the assertion recently made by J. S. Delllnger, of Astoria, that this company would continue its road along the coast, is correct. There Is no doubt that when once the route has been secured the construc tion will follow rapidly because the Northern Pacific rushes matters when once It starts doing things. "Meanwhile, tho Southern Pacific is attempting to corral tho trade be tween this port and Portland by put ting on extra boats and with consid erable success. The Czarina is to be put on the run with tho Breakwater so as to secure all tho freight pos sible and to hold tho field for this railway extension to bo completed from Drain to Coos Bay.' CHANGE GAME LAWS. Myrtle Point Paper Thinks the Open Duck Season Should Ho Altered. Many sportsmen of Coos, county are quite heartily In favor of a change in the duck season. They complain that It opens too early and closes too early. It is said that there is a considerable breeding of ducks in this section and the season opens so early that the young ducks aro submitted to slaughter before they havo any sense of self-preservation, and the season might well bo open later, because tho birds do not require as early protection as Feb ruary 1, when tho season now closes. It opens tho first of August. A month later on each end of tho sea son would be much better. Myrtle Point Enterprise. FOR THIS WEEK. Fine Coos River Ranch $5,000.00.

ANOTHER SON ' IS MISSING Fifth Inquiry Made for Lost Man in Less Than Six Weeks. i - . Numerous enquiries aro being made for sons in this section and hardly a week goes by that some mother does not send to Coos Bay In search of a son who was last heard of In this place. The latest Is an enquiry from Mr. and Mrs. J. S. Campbell, of Norden, Neb., who have not heard from their son Arthur D. Campbell since last September, when he was working at a local lum ber camp. The letter was received by Rev. W. R. F. Browne, of the Meth odist Episcopal church: Norden, Neb., Dec. 31. 1907. "Dear Bro. We have a son away from home. He wrote us from your city about Sept. 1st, and we answered the letter about the last of Septem ber, and the letter was returned to us uncalled for. He said he was work ing in the timber. We aro very anxi ous about him. Wo thought perhaps if anything happened to him you "might know it. He will be 23 years old next February if he lives. His name Is Arthur D. Campbell Kindly enquire every place you think It would be possible to get a clue as to where ho is. We would be glad to pay any expense that is incurred. We remain Youre truly, MR. AND MRS. J. S. CAMPBELL." This makes at least five enquiries for lost persons in this county within the past six weeks, and there appears to be something radically wrong somewhere. If the same number were missing from every spot in the United States in the same length of time, nearly every citizen of the union would be lost inside of a year. It is thought that most of the men missing at this point have written to their parents, but owing to the con dition of the mail service tho an swers havo been delayed or lost al together. Another feature of the missing sons Is that In nearly every caso they wero last heard of as working in tho log ging camps, and In that caso they do not have writing desks provided for their use, and it may bo that they be came slack in their correspondence.
