WHAT'S THE MATTER'S
"What's the matter with Coos
Bay?"
She's all right!"
Front street Is being paved.
Work Is being pushed rapidly on
the new $75,000 Chandler hotel.
Contracts have been let for a new
$30,000 high school building in

The mlll3 and factories all over

parations to open at once.
The prospects are bright for the
Southern Oregon District Fair be
ing tho largest and most successful
ever hold.
Everybody on Coos Bay who has
to work or wants to work is busy at
good wages.
The youngsters are in the midst of
their vacation festivities; the sick
are getting well; tho people refuse to
die under any circumstances during
this superb weather; tho stork is
winging dally flights to this neighbor
hood with a braw lot of handsome
healthy new recruits to tho civic
ranks; tho business world here is as
free as ever of failures; trade might
"be better and soon will be; the bay
Is bristling with busy craft of all
"kinds and the valley towns are
lively and active nnd Inviting, and
the weather is Ideal.
Wo might go on Indefinitely with
quotations of this sort, but these sug
gestions are enough to convey our
senso of satisfaction to tho outsider
and wo agree to prove it all if ho or
she comes to se us. It's all here,
with more to come!
THE READING AMERICAN.
. The public school of Amorlca Is
responsible for tho reading Ameri
can. Ho Is everywhere, and up-to-date;
his paper, his magazine, his llbrnry
,-ai-e simply Indispensable to him,
while- the telegraph, wire and wire
less, keep liim !n Um-Ai with the
world and the current history of tho
.day.
It is ono of the best signs wo have
of national stability and readiness.
Great emergencies are met all over
tho land with communal understand
ing and appreciation that savo days
and weeks of coaching and prepara
tion, and drilling for action. Tho
-country Is never asleep; tho Presi
dent, tho Governor, tho Mayor, al
ways find the people on tho Bpot
when thoy are wanted for high pur
poses, nnd thousands of them equip
ped for leadership.
No country In tho world has as
many readers of tho daily news as
tho United States; If there aro classes
In this country, there Is a paper for
each, and all are studied avidly; the
nation Is never without a working
knowledge of tho great events trans
piring, or to transpire. From Coos
Bay to tho keys of Florida and from
tho St. Croix to San Diego It is tho
same and the common school is nt
tho bpttom of it. It is splendid
equipment nnd the country nt largo
appreciates It.
BUSINESS ACTIVITY.
Notwithstanding tho prevailing
slugfilshness in business operations
sonerally throughout tho country
-during tho first hnlf of tho current
year a marked Improvement has been
Tioticeahlo during tho pabt two
-months, and It Is tho concensus of
opinion that from now on tho entlro
country will experience a more nor
mal and healthy growth as a result
of tho recent business depression.
Business In every lino Is already
beginning to Improve, and this con
dition necessarily means an advanco

Wife Sues For Divorce Because
of His Objecting to Silk
Stockings and Corsets.
NEW YORK, Aug. 1. Because her
husband was so jealous that he
wouldn't let her wear funcy hosiery
or plain corsets, and because of a
whole lot of other things, pretty lit
tle Mrs. Hattie Fuller Dupont, of
44 Fifth avenue, Brooklyn, had him
arrested for alleged assault and
abandonment, has sued him for abso
lute divorce and has also sued her
wealthy fathor-in-law, John Tyler
Dupont, sr., of Seeley street, for dam
ages of $25,000.
All this domestic shipwreck is
a sequel to a salt-sea-wave romance
that started at Coney Island. While
Hattie Fuller, 1C years old, was in
bathing she met John Tyler Dupont,
jr., who was one year older than she.
On December 30, 1907, the couple
were secretly married by a Jersey
City clergyman. The bride gave her
ago as IS, although she was really
only 1G.
Kept (ho Secret Slv Months.
For six months young Mrs. Dupont
stayed at her father's home, keeping
the family in ignorance of her mar
riage. Then the secret slipped out,
and after a stormy scene or so and a
reconciliation the young people began
living together.
The rest of the story is best told
by the young plaintiff.
"Within a year or so after our
marriage it became apparent to me
that I had made a mistake," said
Mrs. Dupont. "My mother did not
think that it was incumbent upon
her to support us and frequently said
so. Finally my husband and I started
housekeeping. He became jealous of
me to the point of being silly. One
day I bought two pairs of pretty silk
stockings. When my husband came
home that night he told me that I
must not wear them, and to make
sure he took them away with him.
"1 was a well-developed woman,
and when I wore corsets my figure
was naturally Improved. This made
my husband angry, for he said that
every man on the street would look
at me when I passed.
Deserted Her In Dnngor.
"He engaged in various oc
cupations and never made a success
of any of them. In Barnhart's hall,
Atlantic and Clinton avenues, my
husband and Artie Quinn opened the
first moving picture show at popular
prices in Brooklyn. As an induce
ment he offered every boy patron a
pair of skates and a hockey stick.
"The hall was crowded at the flrst
performance. My husband sent for
me and said that ho was In trouble
A few hockey sticks were distributed
uid then followed a riot. Every
window in the front of the building
was demolished. Tyler and Quinn
jumped out of a back window and
left mo to face the mob of angry
youngsters. The police came and I
was rescued.
"Finally I went to Albany, where
1 have a married sister. A few days
passed and then I received a telegram
stating that my husband was dying
and begging mo to come home at
once. I didn't go. Then I received
a lotter stating that he was going to
commit sulcldo In the Morris chair
In tho parlor. I replied "Please do
not do it in the parlor; there Is room
to die In tho kitchen."
on foot among the large lumber
dealers to advance tho price on build
ing material and establish tho rates
that provalled before what might be
termed tho late Industrial vacation.
This change In business conditions
is very gratifying, and demonstrates
to the world at largo the American
spirit of progresslveness and their
determination to overcome all ob
stacles that aro detrimental to the
welfare of the country.
Even during the trying times just
past, tho business interests of Coos
Bay woro In no way affocted, and
with tho advent of numerous enter
prises In our territory wo should en
tor upon tho greatest period of pros
perity ovor known to this section.
Wo aro now experiencing a healthy
growth both In population and the
volumo of business transacted. It,
theroforo, stands us well In hand to
proparo oursolves for this new era
of prosperity and strive to make tho
year 190S tho banner year In tho his
tory of Coos Bay. Don't falter; con
tlnuo tho Improvements already so
auspiciously begun, and whon our
work is completed wo can point with
initio to the results accomplished and
feel that wo havo labored In a good
cause.

Man Objects to Stepson's
Bawling and Wife Sues For
Divorce.
NEW YORK, Aug. 1. Tired of do
ing roadwork at night with a bawling
baby Hamilton Fries, of Stonetown,
just above the hills of Wynockie, near
Peterson, N. J., informed his wife,
Etta, that she would have to choose
between him and the youngster. Mrs.
Fries took the baby, Hamilton took
his hat and departed and now Mrs.
Fries has taken steps to secure a di
vorce. She asks that- Hamilton be
compelled to support her and the
cause of the trouble.
They were married in 1901, not a
great while'after Mrs. Fries had seen
that her first husband, Caleb Ryer
son, was properly tucked away be
neath an imposing slab. Caleb and
"Ham," as Fries is known to his
friends, had been suitors for pretty
Etta Bender's hand, but Caleb was
the more convincing of tho two.
"Ham" didn't decorate his dome with
crape when Caleb cashed in. He
sympathized with the widow and let
It be known that there was room for
two beneath his name. Mrs. Ryer
son said she was fond of Fries and
that settled It. She had a baby less
than a year old when she removed the
name of Ryerson from the front door.
"Everything was lovely until that
kid began to howl, which was every
time he got a look at me," said Ham
yesterday. "I didn't mind travelling
with him in my cupola during the
day time, but tho forced marches at
night was what got my nanny. I'll
bet I've covered 750,000 in the last
few years. Talk about an endurance
contest. It's too bad I didn't have a
cyclometer on my leg."
"Do you consider marriage a fail
ure?" asked the reporter.
"It's all right if they'd abolish the
night drills, ' said Ham. -Look at
the shape of my legs. I've been
walking on my knees for the past
six months."
"It's Ham's own fault," Mrs. Fries
is alleged to have told her friends.
"Just as tho baby would be getting
quiet Ham would come along and
frighten the little angel."
The case will be tried in a few
days. Ham's trump card will be the
exhibition of his bare shins marked
like the Obelisk by colliding with
rocking chairs and other furniture.
