"Tho chase Is beloved of man. From a rabbit to a woman we find that the object most attractive is that just a little ahead." And now In defense of her sex as aggressors in the chase, comes one signing herself "Spinster" and, speaking brielly but to tho point, she ruthlessly picks to pieces some of the arguments advanced by "Shady Sldo" and Bernard Shaw. Tlio Spinster. "Your various bachelor corres pondents grow eloquent on tho sub ject of woman. May I furnish this piece of information to your sub scribers? Bernard Shaw, who is quoted by your correspondent, is a married man and, if skeptical jour nalists are to be believed, Is entirely satisfled with the bargain ho has made. "Mr. Shady Sldo is evidently a bachelor and a young one at that. Ills colossal egotism will keep him safe from the trials of a benedict. Ills eyes will be blind to any points of superiority that tho average wo man may have over him. "Woman's chief occupation, not withstanding Shaw's and Schopen hauer's allegations to tho contrary, is not man hunting. Mr. Shady Side has but to count tho numbers of self respecting, self-supporting young women of Coos Bay to bo convinced that tho man hunting girl is in tho minority. "It is tho sheltered young girls who know lea'3t of men that join in tho pursuit of husbands. No young woman who comes in contact with tho average bachelor in a business way desires tp prolong the acquaint ance after hours. She prefers health, self-support and the pursuit of hap piness to tho effete specimen of man hood who is inveigled into a pro posal. "A SPINSTER." Personal Notes.

Coqulllo Bentlnol, SHADY aut ANSWERED PRESENT CAPTAIN WITH GOLD CHAIN Plant Passengers Show Their Appre ciation of Skipper's Vnlor And Coolness. In token of their deep gratitude and appreciation of his valor and coolheadedness, a number of tho pas sengers of the Plant, on her recent perilous trip, last night presented Captain Sam Burtls a gold chain and locket. The presentation was made in the sample room of the Blanco hotel. R. S. Wright,, who is on the bay representing Murphy, Grant & Co., induced tho Plant's skipper to come to the room under pretense that he wished to show him his sample line. When tho captain arrived the passengers were assembled and J. P. Quirk on their behalf made a fitting speech of presentation. Captain Burtls, with that innate modesty common to seafaring men, returned his thanks for the token but said he was only doing his duty' as captain. One of the features of tho ship's trip not hitherto mentioned was the cap tain's act when the propeller shaft first broke. The wheel did not fall into tho sea but continued to pound Its several tons against the boat's stern. By means of a ropo tied around his body the captain was low ered over the boat's side and for hours he worked trying to remove the peril which threatened the ship. The wheel finally dropped into the sea of its own volition. Following are the passengers who contributed toward th3 gift: FANCY DRESS AFFAIR GIVEN IN NORTH BEND Commercial Club Rooms Given An Atmosphere Cosmopolitan On Wednesday Afternoon.

IY FORTIFY COOS BAY Government War Department Sends For Maps of Coos County. The office of tho county surveyor received an order from Lieut C. O. Jones of the general staff of the war department for a map of Coos county, which they desire to study for mili tary purposes. With the building of the Panama Canal It is most likely that more fortifications will bo er ected on tho Pacific coast and tho people of Coos Bay have been en deavoring to interest the war de partment to build fortifications at the mouth of the bay.
