The new concrete building for the Bank of Bandon is beginning to loom up nicely,' and will certainly be a credit to the city when it is complet ed. Official Paper of Coos County. TI FIGHTING THE FLY. "IME was, and not so very long ago, when a serious proposal by the Government to undertake the extermination of the house fly as a deadly enemy of the human race would have been regarded with amazement and derision. That insect had for ages been regarded as an in nocent if not, indeed, a beneficient creature, the only indictment of which was its proclivity for disturb ing alte sleepers and for annoying with its too affectionate attentions the possessors of hairless pates. As for the possibility of ridding the world of it, even were that desirable It would have been dismissed with invincible increduallty, as though one had sugosted the drying up of the ocean. Those were the days "when we made bricks In Egypt," in bon dage to ignorance, and superstition; before the coming of Pasteur to set us free. Now it is perfectly well known, however, that the fly was well wor thy to be ranked among the deadly plagues which scoured recalcitrant Pharaoh, and that It Is In reality a singularly noxious creature, to whose black account pestilence and death sire to be abundantly charged C. B. Zeek has sold his residence to Mr. Pery, Sr., and will give pos session about April 1st. Mr. and Mrs. Zeek will then take a trip to California and eastern Oregon, and will return here in about a month or six weeks, and will probably build another residence this fall. On Saturday carpenters began the work of enlarging the store of W. C. Itose on Front street. The partition betwen the store and the ioom form erly occupied by the Stutsman Real Estate Company was torn out and the store room enlarged to this extent. L. V. Bridges of Marshfield, one of the proprietors of the former Gar field hotel in that city, was in the valley this week looking for suitable dairy and cattle land. MK Bridges announced that he found "so much that he had not as yet been able to make a choice. He also visited Ban don, Myrtle Point and also looked at land all along the river. . Mrs. Charles Wlckham and daugh ter Esma of Bandon visited in Co quille a few days this week, being on their return home from Marsh field where they went to see Mrs. A. A. Luckey, Mrs. Wickham's mother, before her departure for Portland. J. S. Jackson, who formerly con ducted the Maryland Cafe in this city, returned to Coquille last week and purchased the McClendon. Res taurant which has been conducted for some time by Hawley and Mc Cann. Alfred Schroeder and family, who have resided at Johnson's mill for several years, where Mr. Schroeder was employed in the mill, left this week for Marshfield where they will reside for a time. We have been informed that there will be another store in Rlverton this coming summer. It is to be general merchandise and is to equal any in the valley. The Catholic church has been moved a short distance south, raised about four feet from the ground. and a new belfry is now being built, and a bell will be put up. When the work is all completed, the ap pearance of the building will be greatly improved. 'FATHER TOM" TALKS. Kelly, Former Coos Comity Ball Play er, Plans for Season. SANTA CLARA, Cal., March. 21. Coach Tom Kelly, who has had charge of the victorious Santa Clara College baseball team this season, say3 that he expects to leave soon for Eugene, Ore., to take charge of the coaching of the University of Oregon nine. Kelly proved to be 'a popular man among the .students at the college here and has won much prestige on account of the way he handled the team. Kelly is a member of the famous Santa Clara nine of 1S9S. He pitch ed that year and the team did not lose a game during the entire season. In speaking of the Oregon boys, Kelly said that he has excellent ma terial at the Oregon university and expects to turn out a championship nine. Weston, the pedestrian, has readi ed Sunshine, Arizona, on his way from the Pacific to the Atlantic. Still y.ou do not have to reach very far fcr sunshine in Arizona. No want so large and no want so small that The Times "want" ads can not supply it. NOTICE TO CONTRACTORS. GAVE ODD EXCUSE.

The gasoline boat Osprey with Captain Caughell in command, made a trip to Coos'Bay with a load of cold storage produce for the Hume boys. Captain Wagner has been engaged, so we are informed, to run the boat the rest of the season, and will make reg ulartrips between here and the bay. mer complaint," cholera Infantum and the allied enteric Ills of child hood. Tho mention of cobra and Icralt makes men shudder, yet the fly probably causes more deaths each year than all the venomous serpents of tho Indian jungle. Familiarity with it as with vice has caused us to regard it with tolerance, but that regard In no degree divests It of its detestable characteristics and its de structive potentiality. Tho extermination of this pest Is no doubt a formidable undertaking, but its difficulty Is no greater than its need. Experience, indeed, gives much encouragement for the enter prise. Tho mosquito has not, It Is truo, been exterminated. Tho cam paign against it Is yet too now for such a lcsult. But a degreo of prog ress toward that ond has been made which a few years ngo would have seemed incredible, and the sanitary results of It are gratifying beyond all expectation. If malaria could be ban ished from Port Said and yellow fe ver from Cuba and Panama, it would certainly not seem Utopian to plan a great abatement of tho plague of files, if not entire extinction of that deathbearlng nuisance. Tho systematic campaign which is to bo started this spring by the De partment of Agriculture deserves en couragement and co-oporatlon. It is to be conducteij in rural regions rhlefly where tho need Is perhaps even greater than elsewhere and where, the need Is perhaps even great er than elsewhere and where the diffi culties are perhaps greatest. In clt ios the health board ought to under take blinllnr campaigns with onor S)' nn l persistence, if this Is done, i,uil If all people treat the fly as those should who have regard for cither c1eaullnes or health, the ap proximate extermination of the bane ful little creature will not be remote. We have practically exterminated by selfishness and greed or through t-heer wnntomnesg, so many lunoceut and In mtlful creatures which are de vo' I of ifii a '.inu'e redeeming trait to Kc-omnn t'd th in to mercy or tolerance A. S. Elliott, receiver for the Bandon Light & Power Co., states that he will probably have the books and other business of the company straightened out by April 1st so that he can go to Improving the plant and bettering conditions in earnest. Ed. Johnson, of the Fat Elk coun try, went down to San Francisco on tho Elizabeth .with 700 sacks of potatoes. It was with regret that the people of this community received the news that Rev. Simmons was to depart from Curry. He has ' made many friends during his short stay here. He says, however, that the Methodist Church Is here to stay and that he will be succeeded by an able speaker who will look after his little flock.
