Tho subject: "Char acter Building" has been chosen for A MODEL AND MODERN CAFE Smith's Elegant New Cafe With Metropolitan Appearance and Service Opens To- morrow. Tomorrow Marshfleld will enter into possession of what has been said to bo a long felt want on Coos Bay, a really first class restaurant. Smith's Cafe will then bo thrown op en to the public. This establishment in the Gurfleld building on Front street has been elegantly and artis tically fitted up in a manner that gives it a touch of mctropolitanism that is certain to be appreciated by the people of the city. The room lias been entirely remodeled and redec orated so that it presents an attrac tive and even beautiful appearance. It is such an establishment as marks tho march of Coos Bay toward metropolitan honors. In tho Imme diate rear of the main 'dining room four apartments have been arranged for private parties. There is a neat lavatory arranged off tho dining room and a very conveniently arranged kitchen in tho rear. Everything from tho decorations and furnishings to the kitchen utensils aro according to the most modern ideas. The kitchen is a model of cleanliness and conveni ence. It is as spick and span as one of a New England housowife. Mr. W. P. Smith, the manager, who has already earned a reputation as a successful caterer, being proprietor of the Melrose restaurant, gives as suance that tho service, food and culinary will bo strictly In keeping with the appearance of tho placo and first class In every particular. Mr. Smith and his partner in tho business Mr. G. V. Duttle, have surrounded themselves with a corps of efficient and competent assistants. Mr. Smith acts as manager, G. V. Duttle as stew ard, Mrs. Berg will be cashier and the chef, A. Anderson, is a thorough ly experienced master of the intricate art of good cooking. Notwithstand ing tho high class appointments and service, Smith's Cafo will servo meals and short orders at popular prices. Tho place will bo open for tho public tomorrow and the dinner bill with prices attached will bo found In an other column. this meeting. All those who have question slips, papers, etc., on this, subject, that wero assigned to them at a previous meeting aro requested to bring tho same. Twins Born There is great and righteous joy in Bay City over tho arrival of twin babies, a boy and a girl, at the homo of Mr. and Mrs. G. G. Aerhart. Mother and children aro both doing well and every resident of tho city shares In tho fathers delight. Such an addition to tho population has started an agitation for tho or ganization of a "five thousand club" with Mr. Aerhart as president. Tho stars and stripes wero flung to tho breeze on tho Smith mill yesterday In honor of the event. Show at Masonic Opera House. Next on tho boards at tho Masonic opera house will be, "Tho Scientific Americans Tho Two Hoyts with their company of talented perform ers. Far abovo tho average."

Sho Is said to possess wonderful skill In tho uso of flro arms. Tho show is billed for Thursday night February 20. Where Did tho Smelt Go? Jim Hayes, tho well known Marshfleld fish dealer, had on hand yesterday an excess supply of tin cans and 111 temper And It happened llko this: In accordanco with tho earnest so licitation of a largo number of his customers Mr. Hayes ordered two cases of smelt from Portland. This was considerably more than enough to fill tho total orders of his custom ers but Mr. Hayes know ho could dispose of tho surplus without troub le. Yesterday tho Alliance brought in tho long looked for cases. Mr. Hayes Immediately notified tho wait ing customers that tholr orders would bo filled at onco nnd also took sovoral now ordors, Incidentally cor nering tho tin can market In Marsh flold. Everything was in readiness to mako tho dollvorlos and thus ap peaso tho highly whotoned appotltos of tho smelt customors; tho tin cans woro lined up, tho dollvory wagon was In waiting and Mr. Hayes pried tho casos opon and found halibut. (Noto: Sultablo prizo will bo awarded to tho first ono reading tho stars correctly,) FAVORS Til E IMF. Citizen Writes a Letter Advo- catincj the Bell Street Rail way Charter. Editor Times: ' "Now that resumption of work on tho Drain road this spring is as sured, It occurs to mo that tho pres ent is a very proper time to consider the matter of granting a franchise to some responsible party who may de sire to build an electric street car line and a water level road between North Bend and Marshfleld. Tho writer Is informed that, In case tho Southern Pacific is not able to bridge the bay, it will need to have primary control of tho water front traffic, and that, in case it is unable to obtain tho right to bridge, or to occupy the wat er front, it will not accommodate either North Bend or Marshfield with a railroad or depot, but will make a special point of advancing tho inter ests on the East Side of the bay. The bridge is said to bo improbable for tho reason that the government projects under consideration which, will make a deep water harbor and a harbor of refuge beyond and within tho bar. But tho water level road running from North Bend to Marsh field along tho shore is a necessity which tho Southern Pacific should not bo asked to dispense with. The much abused ordluanco grant ing a franchise to Seymour II. Bell which tho city council has long had under consideratjon Is ono vjhlch could be accepted by tho peoplo with groat benefit to them. It is no better and no worse- than ordinances of tho samo naturo granted by other cltlea and would not bo any more subject to abiso than they. If that franchlso 13 granted, tho writer believes that two results will follow: First, tho South ern Pacific will build this spring out of Coos Bay to tho Umpqua and sec ond, it will push the Drain road from. Drain to Scottsburg. I am not urging that this "Bell Charter," so called bo enacted with out modification. I simply urgo that it bo enacted with only a few mlnoc changes so that it will have a com mercial and financial value. Such, charters must bo marketable in order that promoters may place tho neces sary bonds. As an example of what changes might bo made I suggest that tho proposed charter should provldo for a flvo cent faro and that when tho several cities aro consolidated tho five cent fare will apply to transfers to every part of tho greater city. It. this is not done tho anomalous condU Hon of a flvo cent faro charged under each charter may make a ton cent faro between tho two cities. Tho Bell Charter should bo so framed thnt the uso of tho water level lino may bo common to all railroad com panies entering this district, enaoi inir tho Southern Pacific, Great Northern, Northern Pacific, North- wnstern. Santa Fo or any other sys- tnm to connect therewith on equal terms and with reasonable switching ferenco does It mako who or what charges. If this Is done, what ait company owns tho franchlso? Tho Important thing is to guard tho right of tho city to allow any railroad to como into tho city on equal torm3 with any other and tho charter should, provldo that it shall at all times bo. tho duty of tho company holding tho franchise to maintain sufficient track ago and conveniences to accommo date any and all business which may. ablo times and at rcasonablo rates. With such safe guard, tho granting ot with such Bfo guard, tho granting ot tho chartor to Mr. Bell cannot bo In jurious to MnrshflelO. find it will re sult In bringing tho city to tho fronL So far ns Mr. Bell Is concerned, Tho Times, I venture to say, has no objection to his person or his record. Defectlvo lighting and power aro ag gravating, but tho condition hero, la about tho samo ns anywhere olso. Wo can admit that Mr. Bell's strength consists in his coming up smillnK every tlmo ho Is defeated and that by his general good naturo ho gets moro than ho ought to have sometimes. Ho Is as good as any, ono who Is likely to apply for a charter and ho has tho backing to build tho road. Hewitt is a million aire, suspected of being connected with cortaln railroad interests, hut whothcr In fact a Great Northern man or an S. P. man Is not Import ant. Tho main thing Is to got tho street railroad, tho water lovel transit lino, tho Southorn Pacific, and an open traffic lino for all companies alone tho shore.
