THE PAILY COOS BAY TIMES, MARSHFIELD. OREGON TUESDAY, MARCH 31, 1908. S FRONT STREET Council Asks Plans and Speci fications for Paving with that Kind of Material. City Engineer Sandberg is prepar ing plans and specifications for pav ing Front street from tho City Hall to C street with block paving, and unless something unexpected inter feres will have them ready for the city council's approval by Thursday evening. The council ordered the plans and specifications for block paving after consulting the Front street property owners so that there is not likely to bo any change from this material. Whether treated blocks, or untreated material will bo used has not been determined. The cost of the treated blocks will bo much more than for tho untreated wood. A number are in favor of tho un treated wood on account of its cheapness and also because burned pine can bo obtained, which is claimed to bo almost as durable as some kinds of treated blocks, at home. ?-$ It is tho city council's intention, and it meets with Air. Sandberg's hearty approval, to require the con tractor to give a guarantee of his work and material for a specified time. Tills will cover repairs and in case the material or job should be a bad one, the city and property owners will bo protected. . It is baroly possible that bids will bo asked on both treated and un treated blocks nnd a decision be tween them reached later. NKW HULKS ISSUKl).

Cake of Portland, candidate for tho Republican indorsement for United States senator from Oregon, has written friends on Coos Bay that he will bo here shortly to deliver sev eral talks In behalf of his candidacy. Ho is basing his candidacy largely upon his support of Statement No. 1. Just how long ho will spend in this section and where lie will speak, has not been announced. It is not believed that Senator Ful ton will enter Coos or Curry counties in the campaign before the primaries. He has only a limited amount of time, in consequence of his duties at Wash ington keeping him there until very recently, In which to cover the State and as he has appeared on Coos Bay a number of times in recent years, lie believes that it will not be necessary for him to como this timo. Local supporters of Mr. Fulton say that he will poll a big vote here as his work in behalf of appropriations for tho bay and in the land grant contro versy, in which Coos county Is great ly interested, entitle him to strong support. HANDEL, COMPOSER "MKSSIAH." OP THE Handel! It would bo Impossible to find a more popular name than this In the whole annals of music, noi could any composer be cited whose works have been so frequently per formed, and whrch aro as generally understood as thoso by this- great son of art. No harmonious strains have spread over the world so surely and un mistakably as have those of the com poser of the "Messiah," and, If it be came necessary to instance a com position of importance which had done more than any other toward making music's language known, the work which would unquestionably be named would be that masterpiece of choral art just mentioned. Handel, of all composers, Is universal. W3 gather from his music tho grandest realizations of mental enjoyment, and once heard, it makes permanent im pressions of the best and noblest kind. Handel is the giant thc'logian of music. No other religt'oiib music is so bracing, so convincing, so mij,bvy indeed is its effect that no man, could long hear it, and, If he were an un believer, remain one. No wonder that when the "Messiah's" i;r,uid "Hallelujah" was first heard, the au dionco rose to its feet out of sheer enthusiasm. No mortal can bo lifted to the heights to which Handel's great genius will waft him, and not feel that ho has undergone an ex perience. In oratorio writing, Handel excels all other composers. Haydn said of him, "He is the father of us all." For the secret of Handel's success we can go to tho "Messiah." Its libretto is based on the identical H$G$&$$$C$C$&$6&0$O$'&XsX.

Tichenor, general organizer of the Woodmen of the World for this section and an enthusiastic booster of Coos Bay has written to The Times that more than 30,000 homeseekers and investors will visit Coos Bay in the next twelve months. Mr. Tichenor has been conducting a Ccoa Bay publicity bureau in con nection with his work, advertising this section and furnishing informa tion concerning it. In his letter to The Times, lie says: "So far this month S5 people havo called at my office wanting infora tiou about Coos. Bay. 1 predict that no less than 30,000 people will visit Coos Bay the next twelve months." Mr. Tichenor is preparing to meet James Roberts of Portland in a quoit Ditching match for the championship nf tlin northwest. The contest will take place at Portland at the open ing of the baseball season there, ten pound quoits being used on a distance of fifty feet. Both are experts. Mr. Tichenor's forecast of the great immigration to Coos Bay has called attention to the fact that there aro few houses for rent on Coos Bay and that it may be difficult to accommo date the influx. Recent arrivals who havo sought to find houses for rent have encountered much difficulty. The projectors of tho new hotels will probably be pleased at the pro spects for the big business for tho opening of their hosteleries. COQUILLE news. J. M. Partridge come over from the bay yesterday on his way to Arago where he will take charge of the brick plant of the Schroeder Bros., he being an expert brick man ufacturer. Chas. H. Helling, of Portland, wa3 In town on Saturday on his way down the coast. Mr. Helling has a lot of dredging machinery in Port land which he is having some trou ble In getting to Rogue river where he. expects to use it In dredging for gold. He was expecting to take It down on the Berwick, but since she Is ashore he seems at a loss to de cide just how to turn. It may be possible that the Enterprise will carry it down from the bay.
