LAND CASES
In a twelve inning game, Marsh
fleld lost to Coquille yesterday on
the home grounds by a score of 4
to 2. The game, aside from a lit
tle vaudeville rag chewing over Um
pire Washburn's decisions, was a
good one. It was largely a pitcher's
battle and honors were about even
although Theile had to deal with a
bunch of better batters than did
Gardiner. Each had twenty strike
outs to his credit at the conclusion
of the twelve inning. Both pitched
themselves out of three or four bad
holes.
According to many of the onlook
ers view, the game shouldn't have
gone beyond nine Innings and Marsh
fleld should have won. Both Marsh
fleld's runs in the nine inning3 were
due to errors, and Coquille's two
runs in the nine innings were secur
ed on questionable decisions by Um
pire Washburn. Coquille's runs in
the twelfth were secured by good
batting and base running.
Coquille's first run was given
them by Washburn who claimed that
Theile balked. Theile made a mo
tion to throw to third and then whlrl-
led and by two movements tossed it
1 to first. His intention evidently was
,to catch tho man napping on first.
I While a vote of the onlookers would
have been that Theile did balk, tho
rules prove otherwise by stipulating
that a balk cannot be made to second'
or third, Washburn wouldn't listen
to tho rules and Marshfleld threaten-
I ed to quit. After fifteen minutes or

elded to play it out in order to give
the large crowd present something
for their money.
Again in tho eighth, Washburn
gave Coquille a questionable run.
Porterfleld in absolute violation of
tho rules ran in from third to the
plate with tho runner, making it
questionable as to whether Thomas
touched the base. Rutledgo fell in
catching McKeown's throw but drop
ped on tho plate.

UNO CASES
AT ROSEBURG
Government Land Office Hears
Coal Claim Contests From
Near Myrtle Point.
ROSEBURG, Ore., Aug. 10. The
Roseburg Review says: "Through
the United States Land Office in
Roseburg, contests have been insti
tuted by the federal government
against fifteen persons who filed en
try on lands in what is known as
the Eden Ridge Coal Field, In town
ship 32-1 north of the Coquille River,
In Coos county. All of the fifteen
entries were made under the coal
land act that is, the lands were
taken up as coal claims. It Is the
suspicion of the government, how
ever, that the claims are wanted pri
marily for tho magnificent timber
thoy contain, and not for what coal
they might possess. The lands are
embraced in a forest reserve, but,
under the law, if they are proven to
be chiefly valuable for their coal
they will at once pass from the re
serve into the hands of the appli
cants, timber and all.
"Of the fifteen persons filing tho
coal entries, oight reside In Coos
county. They are Claus and Augus
ta Anderson of Coquille; Cecil and
Alta Carter and S. D. Pulford of
Myrtle Point, and James H. Flanagan
and Herbert and Louise C. Lockhart,
of Marshfleld. The remaining seven
applicants hall from South Bend,
Wash., headed by Arthur Hammond,
an official of the International Bank
of that city. His associates are O.
D. and S, M. Reeves, and K Daniel
Eli and Joseph Pearson.
Novel Divorce Secured,
"Tho cases of tho two Andersons'
were heard in tho Roseburg Land'
Office last week, but a decision will
not be rendered for several days yet.
It is reported that the Andersons
divorced as husband and wife, con
tinue to occupy a homestead togeth
er, tho sole object of their legal
separation, it is alleged, being to en
able the woman to extend her land
entry rights.
"Depositions In tho cases of the
othor six Coos county people were
taken at Marshfleld last week prepa
ratory to their hearings, which will
open in tho land office in this city
Monday. At the conclusion of these
hearings, the land offico will take up
the cases of tho South Bead entry
men. "In tho hearing of theso contests
tho government will uso two export
witnesses, Prof. J. S. Dlller, of tho
United States Geological Survoy, and
Prof, Day, of the University of Iowa,
both of whom will testify as to tho
quantity and valuo of tho coal con
tained in tho claims involved."
