Communications to COOS BAY DAILY TIMES &zxtkitlA - Oregon A CAHXEGIE LI15RARV. Andrew Carnegie Is a great man. He is one of tho instruments of Providence. Through him a vast fortune has 5een accumulated. Is It Carnegie's? Yes. But what Is a fortune? It is merely a pile of money. Nobody can eat it or drink it. Even Carnegie can't do that. All he can do is to accumulate and distribute it. Ho accumulated as an incident. He distributes it because it isn't prorth keeping. If the state, city or nation had Chis fortune it could not find a bet ter way to spend it than to estlbllsh libraries. Some people object to talcing Mr. Carnegie's money. Why? Tho people, producers and con sumers, made it. Mr. Carnegie Is not to blame for having it. Society gave him tho opportunity to get It. It really belongs to the people. All Mr. Carneglo can do is to use Ills judgment as to how best to dis burse it. Why shouldn't Marshflold take It? Nobody over claimed that Cnrno Cio's money was "tainted." If it was, tho best way to purify it would it bo to put It where it can do Good. 3f a man steals your money and re lenting or not, offers to givo It back, will you refuse to tako it bceauso It is tainted? Who tainted it, tho robber who stole it, or the fool who wouldn't tako tt But Mr. Carneglo is neither robber nor fool, and Is realty a great and wiso man.

What if the bread Bo bitter in thine inn, and thou unshod meet the Hints. At least To it may bo said Because the way is short, I O thank thee1, God." MRS. BROWNING. J.k$..04 . A Life. Day dawned within a curtained room, Filled to faintuess with perfume, A lady lay at point of doom. Day closed a child had seen the light; But for the lady, fair and bright, She rests In undreaming night. Spring rose the lady's grave was green, And near It oftentimes was seen A gentje boy, with thoughtful meln. Years fled ho wore a manly face, And struggled on the world's rough race, And won, at last, a lofty place. And then ho died! Behold yo Humanity's poor sum and story; Life Death and all that is of glory. BARRY CORNWALL. An esteemed lady reader of Tho Times who read with interest tho alleged poetic effusions inspired in tho Poet's Corner of tho Milllcoma Club was deeply concerned in tho Incident of Rose and Jack. She thinks Jack did right and that those cynically critical poets were wrong for being so exercised. She prepared tho following answers to each ono of them and which Tho Times Is pleased to publish, if you will look up your Valentino paper you will And that each critic is carefully answered: Now Jack was right if ho did so. Oh! Bill, what makes you growl When you can't make It go. Now If Roso returned tho kiss, Which I am sure was right, Oh! Claud, why should you worry When you aro out of sight. Oh, Charlie, I know you llvo In far away North Bond, And if you, had tho kissing to do It would havo boon a bitter end. Why bother Jack and Roso to death Of things that you know not? If left to you I'm almost sure Bert would not havo been on tho spot. Now Anson, dear, what's that I hear Of quitting on tho squnro? You wouldn't toll Jack three kisses at a tlmo Would Blmply bo sublime; Oh, yes you would, you've- had your shuro In tho good old winter time. Now, Will, what makes you talk Of tho tracks Jnckey would mako l or you know wo would never balk All for somo Roses' sake. PRUDENCE.

This drop of ton cents under tho present retail price is not unus ual at this period of tho year. As a well known groceryman explained it this morning this Is tho most fruitful season for tho Coqulllo river valley and Coos. Bay country hens. Tho moderating of tho weather after tho soverlty of tho winter months fills them to effervescing with a patriotic ambition to do something for their country. And, being unable, liko their more fortunate sisters, to work off this zealousncss In civic improve ments and literary culture, they vent It In eggs. Even now the egg market is weakening and local grocerymen aro expecting prices to hit the down ward grade at any moment. An unusually fine supply of young spring chickens was noted In somo of tho meat markets this morning. This poultry, dressed, retails for from 23 to 25 cents a pound. BO YOU WANT A HOME?
