The tickets for the opening ban quet at the Chandler Monday even ing are going rapidly and the at tendance promises to exceed the an ticipations of the management. Many from North ,Bend will be present. Owing to the inability to accommo date all the guests In the dining room at one time, it has been decid ed to dispense with the proposed program of toasts. Another reason for this was that as it will be the first time that many will have an opportunity to Inspect the new hotel, of which all Coos Bay Is so proud, that It was believed the guests would rather spend the time familiarizing themselves with beautiful halls, cor ridors and rooms and the elegant ap pointments than listening to after dinner talks. Every room in the house, with the exception of the buffet, is now complete, furnlturue, fixtures and all. It will be a revela tion to every one, who sees It for the first time Its beauty, elegance and completeness surpassing all antici pations. The banquet will be served at 6, 7 and 8 o'clock, one hour being allowed for each sitting. In securing tickets for the event, the guests are request ed by the management to specify the hour they wish to be served. The ticketsr are now on sale at G. W. Carleton's, George Goodrum's and the Chamber of Commerce. From 6 to 9 o'clock, there will be an informal reception in the lobby and parlors. Owing to the large number to be present and It being a public affair, thore will be no recep tion committee. Much regret is expressed that W. S. Chandler, in whose honor the ho tel was named, and wife cannot be present. They and Miss Helen Chandler are In San Francisco. They had hoped to be here for the open ing but Mr. Chandler found It im possible to leave his business affairs there even for a week.
