Mr. Jones was one of the attorneys that defended Mrs. Joseph Graham in her suit against the C. & E. railway company foi' damages. He, with his family, are taking their vacation at Otter Rock. Jacob Valare and family of Walla Walls are spending a two weeks' vacation at Newport. Some twenty years ago Mr. Valare had charge of the boarding house for four year at the rock quarry above Toledo. This was when the jetties were being built at the entrance to Ya- tMtt. from a trip through tha Alsea country in an auto. Rev. White said that in passing from the Upper to the Lower Alsea valley he wat directed to take the mw wagon' read recently constructed on the! north side of the river. This, he- sai j, was a great mistake and if he could get hold of that fellow "I would nicth him in the river." He found the grade narrow and the road crocked and it was hard to keep the machine from going over the grade. Mr. White said the people ought to make good roads before asking the public to travel them, especially with autos. Dr. Belt and wife stayed over night at Newport while on their way to Portland. The Doctor said he and his wife walked fifteen miles on their way up from Florence, where there was no wagon road. Dr. Belt is the Southern Pacific surgeon on the road that is now being constructed to Marshfield. He said the building of this road would open up a fine section of dairy and agricultural country well as one of the finest bodies timber in the world. The Newport symphony as of or- chestra. Robert Depot and A. Clif ford managers, gave a grand con cert at the Opera House Friday evening for the benefit of the Catholic church. Tber were four teen pieces and the music was of a high order and greatly appreciated by the large audience present. The door receipts were $50, which will be used for the benefit, of Ihe church. Robert DePoe is a full blooded Indian, born at the Siletz He received his primary cuucaiiuu bi uic uuvux umeui Biuuui at Siletz, after which he graduated at Chemawa Indian school, and at Carlisle. For many years he played in the Carlisle Indian band in many parts of the United States. He is an honor to his race, an accom plished musician and a good citizen. His father, Depoe Charley, now de ceased, was a chief in the Joshua j tribe of Indians and his mother was a sister of Tyee Jim. a Tootootany chief, so Robert inherits royal blood. Mrs. DePoe is also a lady of refinement and a good musician. Mr. DePoe plays the violin and his wife the piano. One of the roost pathetic and impressive pieces played at the concert was the "Am erican Indian," by Mr. and Mrs. DePoe. It may in truth be said here the degredation and demoral ization of the American Indian is1 caused largely by the use of whiskey given him by the white man. Mi 111 1 a In is has been the. best season Newport has ever had. The sea son, on account 01 the late rains, commenced late but this has been overcome by rn increased number of excursionists. The Saturday and Sunday trains brought in more than a thousand people and tha beaches were lined again with pleasure and health seekers. It was a pleasant sight to 'see five thousand people, men, women and children strolling along the beach or seated on the sand v Li ting or bathing in the surf or natatorium. It looked like one big, happy family where there was no cast or distinc tions and no millionairs to put on style. The people h)re can wear their plain clothes, put all conven tionalities off and thus come in touch with nature and be benefitted. J A. Waddle and family have moved into one of the Thiel houses. Mrs. Wm. Graham and children returned Monday evening from a visit of a few days at Kings Valley.
