OLD CEMETERY
PUBLIC PARK
Southern Oregon Company and
City Council Have Matter
Under Consideration.
The Marshfield city council last
evening received, a proposition from
the Southern Oregon Company to
convert the old cemetery tract near
Knob hill Into a public park. The
tract was originally ceded by the
Southern Oregon company for a bury
ing ground, and as It Is no longer
being used for that purpose, the com
pany still maintains a claim to It.
There Is between three and four
acres and the company Deneves 'iito the Lapps.

granted the privilege or repioiung Tne flnai plang for
the company's employe. The bill was
for about $30.
D. L. Rood, after considerable de
bate, was ordered a rebate of about
$121 on Second street, he having
built a concrete sidewalk Instead of
the plank walk that was ordered.
He did the work personally but had
paid the assessment for the plank
walk.
Chestnut street grading was ac
cepted from Contractor Flanagan.
The Southern Oregon Company wants
the side of the grade sloped so that
there won't be a landslide. The
company's wish will be investigated.
Contractor Walter Condron's con
tract for grading Cedar street was
extended to January 1.
The Lapp claim to certain property
that Is being utilized by the city In
opening a new street was referred to
Councilmen Savage, Sacchl and Fla
nagan to Investigate. Councilman
Nasburg withdrew -from the commit
tee because he has a claim similar

TInon recommendation of Con
tractor Walter Condron and Council-
man Nasburg, the council ordered the J. W. BENNETT IS
city recorder to send a bill for five
planks to Carl Albright, one of the
candidates for councilman at the
coming election. Messrs Condron
and Nasburg reported that Mr. Al

IMPROVING RAPIDLY
Sends Wireless Message From San

ing Humor Is Not Affected.
J. W. Bennett, who . has been in
Lane's hospital in San Francisco for
provement, over which W. U. Dou
glas and the council clashed a few
weeks ago, was up again last night.
Councilman Sacchl said that he
didn't think It was right to impose
upon the property owners the cost
of the gutter and curb as proposed
when it was understood that the
street was to be permanently lmpror-
ous friends In this city. The rheu
matism has disappeared but a little
stiffness In the knee reminds him of
the old trouble. However, he is
taking treatment for that and ex
pects that the last trace of It will
soon disappear and enable hlrn to
spend Christmas at his home In this
city. Just to show that the rheu-

Mayor E. E. Straw received from him
yesterday is produced herewith:
"Thank you for wireless message.

message, something unusual."
cd next spring. Owing to the adver-1 matism has not affected his humor,
tisoment for bids having called for
planking and curbing as well as fill
ing, the council feared that It could
not collect the assessments unless
all the work Is done. It was finally
decided that the street committee
should take the matter up with the
property owners and adjust the mat
ter. A petition from seventeen resi
dents near Flanagan and Nevada
streets that an arc light be placed
there was .referred to the light com
mittee. A bill from the Waterworks Com
pany for the cost of moving a hy
drant at 'C and Second streets was
