Spinster With Decided Views
Expresses HerselfShows
A Benedict.
"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."

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:

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. Tho sending
of tho maps might be that that the
department wishes to study the
ground thoroughly In regard to tho
same. Coqulllo Sentinel.
CANDIDATES FOR OFFICE.
Thco Moro Coos County Men Filo
Petitions.
Since our last Issue the following
petitions have been filed with the
county clerk by candidates for offices
at the coming election: T. J. Thrift,
democrat, assessor; A. M. Gould, ic
publlcan, surveyor; E. G. D. Hblden,
republican, justice; C. L. Pennock,
republican, justice. Coqulllo Sen
tinel. Omniission of T. Cnssell's Name.
One of those regrettable errors which
are Inevitable In the best regulated
newspaper offices crept Into article
reviewing the Eagle Minstrels of
Thursday night in the shape of an
omission of one of the participant's
names. Those who attended will re
member the excellent Interpretation
of the old negro in "Lucy Long." This
character was impersonated by Mr.
T. Cassell who surprised the audi
ence greatly by stepping out of an
apparently aged stiffness and indulg
ing in somo lively buck and wing
dancing. Mr. Cassell was one of the
end men. Ho sang, "Tho Roso Is
the Flower for Me." and was called
back by the audience for an encore.
Mr. Nichols was by mlstako given
credit for this song.
