slsts of the Installing of a new tall-
piece. The new part was ordered
three months ago and had to be es
pecially cast. There was no imme
diate need of it aside from the feel
ing on the part of the management
that the present one was getting old
and that they would rather make the
change when convenient than to wait
until they were compelled to. The
new piece has just reached Portland
and the company immediately decid
ed to take care of the Coos Bay
business by putting the Nome City on

BIG SUCCESS
Entertainment by Ladies
Of
Episcopal Church Scores
Popular Hit.
A whirl of well gowned women
and a galaxy of girls were the cblef
component parts In tho Merchants
Carnival presented at tho Masonic
Opera House last evening before a
large and resesentntlve Marshfleld au
dience. It was one of tho most pleas
ing and entertaining amateur affairs
that has been presented to the pub
lic in many days. From the opening
drill to the closing farco it was pret
ty and amusing. There wero two
drills In which the various business
houses of Marshfleld were represent-
ed by charming girls and beautifully
costumed women appropriately at-
tired for the different lines of trade,
The representative of each business
house made separate entrance, was
announced by tho manager, applaud
ed by the audience and taking her
place In line until the final character
appeared when some very pretty
evolutions wero given to catchy mu
sic. The program was interspersed
with individual features that were
novel and entertaining.
The drill by twenty-four little
girls, a symphony in white, was de
lightful. They marched and counter
marched making a moving picture of
youthful beauty that will find a cozy
corner in pleasant memories" for
many days.
Mrs. "Bessie" Lawlor as tho Elec
tric girl and Miss Florence Aiken as
"The Huntress" wero novel and en
tertaining features that proved pop
ular with the audience and received
generous rounds of applause.
The "Electric Swing Song" proved
one of the hits of the evening. A
beautifully decorated woodland
swing, radiant with colored electric
lights which flashed and darkened In
an enchanting way, was occupied by
Mrs. Montgomery who sang "Sweet
heart Days," assisted by J. Owens.
The arranging of this feature was by
tho Oregon Electric Company and
was one of the prettiest and cleverest
displays of 'the evening.
The two farces "Painless (?) Den
tistry" nnd "Tho Lady Barber" gave
tho necessary dash of fun to make a
well rounded evening's entertain
ment. The Ladles of tho Episcopal
church aro to bo congratulated in
achieving one of tho most enjoyable
