this meeting. All are cordially In
vited to como to this meeting.
Correction. The item appearing
in Tho Times yesterday about Nort
on & Hansen engaging in the flour
and feed business was an error. Tho
firm that should bo named was
Thompson & Hanson. Norton &
Hansen will continue dealing In
food for the intellect Instead of for
animals.
Resent North Bend's Boast Sev
eral local citizens have taken excep
tion to the remarks of North Bend
cltizons that they have the only "city
duck pond" on tho bay. They are
confident that Marshfleld has deeper
i and wider city ponds than tho neigh
boring city, and they resent tho im
putation of North Bend citizens that
they hold the candle.
Will Frame Picture It is reported
that the city council of North Bend
has had pictures taken of the mud
ponds recently shown In the city
streets, and that these pictures will
bo framed and placed in the city hall
for future reference, when tho pres
ent council shall have "reformed"
the streets so that the rain will be
unable to make mud.
Will Move Into New Quarters
TIiq German-American Hospital asso
ciation headquarters, which have
been located in the building above
Lockhart's drug store, will bo moved
' in a few days into the lower floor of
the Owehs' building just below tho
Presbyterian church, where It will
be, In ckarge of Local Manager Ray
m6nd, who has been connected with
It for over a month.
Victor Is Fast Boat. The 35 foot
man for Victor Whittick, of North
! Bond, has been completed for several
days and has been given several trin'
! runs, which indicate that the boat
has considerable speed even with a
16 horse power engine. Tho boat
Is shaped somewhate llko a steam tug
and presents an excellent appearance
In tho water, her name being Victor.
Interest Is Growing Much inter
oat Is being shown in tho Union Evan
gelistic services which have been hold
at tho Presbyterian church every
night this week, Rov. Thurston
! preaching each evening during tho
Illness of Rov. Browne. Interest Is
! growing at each service and six con
versions 4iavo been made In tho past
few days. The services will be con
tinued next week and everybody Is
given a hearty Invitation to attend.
number Goes Bankrupts Ira E.
Wheeler, a plumber of North Bond,
has gono Into bankruptcy and at a
meeting of the creditors on January
21, C. Jay Mahoney, of Marshfleld,
was elected trustee of tho concern.
The liabilities of tho firm were $1500
while the assets amounted to half
that sum, the creditors being princi
pally Portland Arms. Mr. Mahoney
) went over to North Bend this after
noon to appraise tho stock and tako
an inventory.
Arrives From tho Valley Young's
Musical Comedy "company arrived
from a trip down tho Coquille valley
on the noon train today after playing
to crowded houses at every perform
ance In Bandon and Coquille. Tho
company will play here three nights
and will leave on tho Plant for San
Francisco, where they will opon up a
two months' tour of tho stato. Man
ager Dalley left for tho Gato City on
tho last steamer to bill tho produc
tion In various cities of California.
Dog Taxes Coming Rapidly. Mar
shal Jack Carter has collected dog
taxes for tho prosent year to tho
amount of $187.50, and tho dogs
without tags appear to bo almost as
thick as over. Not a slnglo arrost
has boon made for non-paymont of
tho dog tax thus far, but two dogs
with apparently no ownors havo heon
killed. Tho marshal assorts that
qulto a number of dogs will be klllod
In a few days unless tho ownors como
forward and havo tags placed upon
thom.
They Stuck in tho Mud Tho
Blanco hotel bus, In chargo of that
well known driver, "Buckshot,"
stuck in tho mud opposite Georgo
Goodrum's store today at noon, and '
about half a dozen passengers were
compelled to pllo out in tho deep
mud and wade to the sidewalk. Tho
road has become soft where tho gas i
pipes of the Coos Bay Gas & Electric i
company has been laid recently, and
the right hind wheel of tho vehicle
became fast in the mire, tho passen
gers all having to move before tho
rig could bo started.
Why the Gulls Are Tame. Tho
seagulls on the bay are given a daily
meal by the employes of the various
factories and mills along tho water
front In Coos Bay. When the weather '
is fine tho employes who do not re
turn home for ,the noon meal eat
their lunch at tho water's edge, sit-!
ting on tho wharves. The gulls como
from all directions having learned
to know when the hour of noon ap
proaches. The men give the gulls
crumbs and scraps left from lunch
and tho birds have become marvel
ously tame In their efforts to secure
tho food.
Says Meat Goes to Rosehnrg.-
Marslifleld is said to bo up against :
a meat famine and somo beef is be-
ing shipped in from Portland to j
supply tho demand. The Times rec-1
ommends fish as a substitute and
tho fact that clams are selling as
high as a $1 a bucket indicates that
fish and clams aro In demand. It
might be a good plan for cattlo buy
ers from the bay to get out among
tho stockmen earlier in the season.
Hundreds of heads of fine beef cat
tle are driven out to Rosoburg each
season that might bo kept on hand to
supply Coos county's requirements
under .proper ..conditions. Myrtle
Point Enterprise.
Citizens Take Tilings i3asy.
Stories aro. told of the Englishmen
managing to attend to their busi
ness and taking life pretty easy at
tho same time. Tho nervous energy
of tho American Is also a historic
topic. But a visit to three out of
every five offices of professional and
business men In Marshfleld will de
velop tho fact that some Marshfleld
citizens take life pretty easy. Nu
merous offices in the city aro un
opened at 10 o'clock in the morning,
and they also close quite early. Yet
there Is as much business accom
plished as though tho men who have
officqs were wracking their nervos
with long hours and energetic work.
Work Being Rushed Construction
on the foundations of the Finnish
Temple being erected west of the
Masonic Temple is progressing rapld
iv Binpo tim work started over a week
'ago. Quite a large force of men aro
'at work on the structuro and tho
(greatest interest Is being shown in
jtho erection of this bnilding which
will bo the homo of tho Fnnish so
icieties of Marshfleld. It will be a
very handsome home for them when
completed, which is oxpected to bo
within tho next two months. Quito a
few of the members of the society
have contributed several days' work
on tho building, which will un
doubtedly be well built becauso of tho
interest each man will havo In tho
structure.
Sculptural Art Exhiblt-Tlio latest
addition to tho chamber of commerce
exhibit Is a line miniature stone font
executed by J. Y. Arnot, of this city.
It Is chiselled from the natlvo sand
stone of the county, a slate color,
which shows up well In such work.
Tho font represents tho American
eagle with wings half spread, tho
bird standing on tho ground. In
front thoro is a small rcceptaclo and
another on tho right side, somowhat
similar to drinking fonts at a pub
lie fountain. Tho work is protty
good and Is causing considerable In
terest among visitors to tho chamber
of commerce Tho exhibit goes to
show that this is another uso to
! which tho Innumerable resources of
Coos county may be applied.
Astounding Gullibility. Local
citizens aro still wondering over the
oxtremo gullibility of San Francisco
and Portland people who took about
a quarter million of stock In tho air
ship company which was to run a lino
of airships between Portland and
San Francisco. Tho advertisement
of tho company in tho Portland pa
pors amused tho people hero as a
baro-faced fako, and tho Times own
had tho temerity to say something
supposed to bo funny ovor tho drop
ping of tho mallbags In tho city as
jtho airship passed ovor. That any
jbody would tako stock In such a prop
loclUon, which did not ovon ontor Into
tho St Louis airship contogts, was
I never considered by Marshfleld c'.tl
'mis, who oxporioncod with somo
1 thing of a shock tho nows that two
largo cities had boon buncoed by such
brazen mothods as tlioso discount r
)rm tt t peoplo from a quarter mlUio-i
d-.lln:e In "hnrd times."

Real Estate Talk Is Lively During
tho past week real ostato on 1Coo3
Bay has begun to pick up considera
bly. Tho principal subject of con
versation on tho streets tills wcok hns
been real estate, and tho prospects for
a good year were never brighter. Tho
talk of "panic" and "hard times" has
had no effect whatovor on prices ami
local real estate raon Insist that noth
ing will havo any effect oji Coos Boy
property except to ralso Its valnc.
It Is contended that tho long delayed
growth of this section had only com
menced when tho "bubble" in other
parts of tho country fell flat. It Is
said that oven In hard times tho
growth of this section would bo away
beyond its present stato, and conse
quently money conditions will havo
no effect hero. It Is certain that Ut
Ing Is as high as over, and tho price
of lots Is rather astonishing to many
nowcomors. Every Indication points
to a good year In real ostato becauso
so many out stdo Investors are pour
ing into tho county oh prospecting
trips.
Whllo wo don't get our fat
