"Isy EEXKSIl ARRANGE GiE AT NORTH BEND Marshfield Baseball Players Will Have Workout There Sunday Afternoon. Manager Arthur McKeown of the Marshfleld Baseball Team yesterday announced that a, practise game would bo played at the North Bend grounds Sunday afternoon at 2:30. lie wishes all candidates for the 1908 team to turn out and get Into the gamo so that they will bo In shape at the opening of tho season and also to Insure tho placing of tho best material on the team at the start. Prior to tho practise gamo between tho North Bend and Marshfleld ag gregations, there will bo a general workout In which as many as desire may participate. After the game starts, there will probably be numer ous changes in tho lino up to give all a chance to practise and at tho same time preventing tho working any of the fresh men too hard. An effort will be mado to get the Marshllold grounds in shape for practise just as soon as tho weather settles and permits tho grounds to dry sufficiently for uso. Mr. McKeown yesterday wrote to Portland for samples and data on uniforms and other paraphernalia for tho team. BUILDS FAST BOAT WITH SMALL ENGINE. Tiwnty-tuo Knot Launch With Three Horse Power Engine Attains Tiwlc-MI(e Speed. V. E. Boden has just completed a small launch that Is attracting much attention on Coos Bay on account of the great speed secured with a small engine. The boat Is twenty two feet long, will accommodate eight people, and It is claimed has attained a speed of twelve miles per hour with a three-horse power gaso line engine. Mr. Boden, who has been engaged in tho boat building business in the East, came west to visit and look over Coos Bay Ho has practically decided to remain here and engage in the boat building business here if 110 can dispose of his eastern house. EVENTS AT COQUILLE. News of the Valley as Told in the Columns of The Sentinel. The marrlago of Mr. A. G. Thrift and Miss Florence Bosa took place in Bandon Thursday. Their many friends in this city congratulate the young couple. E. H, Johnson and wife of Sas katchewan, British Columbia, were in tho city the first of the week look ing over several pieces of property with tho Intention of purchasing. They left Tuesday for Florence to look at some property in that sec tion. Mr. Johnson is the fore-runner for a large number of people from his section who are looking for a country where the winters are not so severe. The Tlmberman says that the log market in tho Coqullle district is weak, in sympathy with lumber. Fir logs are bringing from $4 to $5, spruce $6 to $7, red cedar $7. White cedar is firm at $10 and has main tained Its price despite the decline in other grades of logs. Report says that Bandon is threat ened with the "yellow peril," some Chinamen having contracted for a building in which to start a laundry. We wonder if the little "City by the Sea" which may rightfully boast of so many modern enterprises will submit to the encroachments of the celestial push-cart and the pig tailed cry of "Washee, Washoe."

GURRY COUNT! I OIL PROSPECTS Reports Received at Coquillei and Port Orford of Rich Finds in That Section. There was a gentleman in Coqullle this wee': who brought the news that Freund and Spencer who are drilling for oil at Langlois, had struck oil and were compelled to cap the well so that it would not run to waste be fore they had erected thanks to hold the crude product. The truth of the foregoing we are unable to state, as it is only hearsay. Coqullle Sentinel. Boring for oil has been going on for several years in northern Curry. 'We are so used to it that it attracts but little attention. At first the operators would talk a little and said "indications were favorable," but of late they don't talk but keep on bor ing, which we interpret as meaning that they have struck It, but are not ready for public illumination. , We havo refrained from spouting about this enterprise, as we want the oil to do tho spouting.

In tho old Norse legends "Baldur. the beautiful." was killed with n branch of mistletoe by "Lokl, the mischief maker," who bated and envied him for his popularity. The gods iu sorrow heaped curses upon the offending mis tletoe. Suddenly appeared the God of Love and begged them In future when ever they taw a piece of It to give each other a friendly kiss Iu tokeu of love, that his spirit might live. Since that time and from this has come the cus tom of stealing n kiss from liny ono standing under a branch of mistletoe.

Philip Augustus defeating Otto IV. of Ger many there in 1214, Philip of Valols defeating the English there In 1340. while lu 17SM the French defeated the Austrians nt the biiuie place.
