LARGE HER
OW
)
Over 1,500 Participate In Ex
cursion to the Bar Friday
Afternoon.
The trip to the lower Bay yester
day afternoon for the Oregon-Idaho
Development Congress delegates was
probably the biggest excursion ever
held here. The steamer Breakwater
had been given for use by Manager
MiUIs and it was loaded with about
COO people. Besides there were
over a dozen gasoline boats of dif
ferent sizes. Tickets had been pro
vided for everyone who wanted to
go and at 1:30 the passengers gath
ered and started for the lower Bay.
The Breakwater stopped at North
Bend where quite a large number of
passengers were taken on.
The life saving crew, with Capt.
Boles was out when the flotilla
reached the lower bay and an exhibi
tion was given. A line was shot
out to the Breakwater and fastened
to a mast and men were taken
ashore to show how passengers aro
rescued from a wrecked ship, The
life saving cr.ew also gave a drill In
tho water, turning over their life,
boat and showing in different ways
.how they work.
To many the work of the life
saving crew was a new thing and tho
I crowd enjoyed It. On the steamer
Flyer was a machine for making
moving pictures. It is In charge of
men sent hero by a Chicago film firm
and a moving pictures of the fleet
of boats and the work of the life
savers was made so tho excursion of
yesterday was one which will be seen
by people In moving picture shows
all over the country.
The boats came back so that the
excursionists were all landed In
good time for supper and the night
business session. Probably fully
J, 000 persons were on the boats
making up the fleet. All of the mills
and, factories along the waterfront
saluted as the boats passed and
there was whistling heard from
either shore of water nearly all of
the time.
The entertainment was character'
lstic of Coos Bay and filled in tho
afternoon pleasantly and gave all
the people a good chance- to see Just
what was on Coos Bay.
Tho PEOPLE of COOS HAY
should REMEMBER that 215 South
Broadway repairs and makes SHOES
cheaper than anyone In Coos county.
And don't forget tho HARNESS bus
iness. We can DISCOUNT anyone
on the coast in quality and price.
