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

subject, that wero assigned to them

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

of "magic, mirth and mystery" while
Mrs. Hoyt does stunts with a Win
chester and six-shooter. 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.

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
