TRIES TO DECREASE SUPPLY OF BOOSE Forget» Hi» Promise to be Good and Gets Old Room Back. A night to ponder over the situa tion, should have been sufficient for the ordinary individual, but it is well known that the aforesaid Olson, has the average man faded a mile in his line. After some well directed advice from ’is 'onor Wade, who suspended his fine upon a tear mingled promise of reformation, Olson left the court room with a glad eye and a parched and crackling thirst. Now, this Olson evidently had not figured rightly upon our municipal officer, who is not endowed with the patience of Job, and straightway hied himself fo a liquid resort, where he proceeded to conveniently place ’steen jolts of red-eye under his capacious belt, which in due time had this man Olson counting little blue devils on the new light wires on main street. Again the vigilant arm of the law pounced upon this luck less specimen just as he was perform ing an extremely difficult aerial per formance, much to the delight of the by-standers. He was given room No. i in the Bastilean 1 requested to remain over until Monday, when he would have the opportunity of telling His Honor all about it. After much conversation, in which Olson had but a minor part, he de cided that in lieu of making a con tribution to the coffers of our town treasury, he would assist in a little road work that has been needed these few days past. He is still at this job which will last him a few «lays longer, and is taking regular meals on the tow n. Meantime he is raising a fine crop of calouses, and has plenty of time to give food to thought in the evenings, as he gazes seaward from the veranda of the Hotel Bandon. The Postal-Card Craze. One of the saddest deaths to be recorded for some time past occured yesterday morning at the fam ily residence near the Baptist church when Miss Ethel Van Valkenburgh daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. S. Van Valkenburgh, late arrivals in this city passed to another world. Although little was known of the young lady in this vicinity those who were fortunate enough to make her acquaintance state that she possessed a loving disposition and was consider ed a young lady of polished nature. The family arrived in the city but a short time since, having come from Coos county in hopes of finding relief for the disease stricken girl. Although every thing possible was done to relieve her suffering it was all in vain and the angel of death stole silently in and carried her to her future home. Besides her par ents she leaves a brother who is now on his way to this city. The funeral was held this morn ing at io o’clock from the home, Rev. Townsend, ot the Presbyterian church officiating. Interment was made at the I. O. O. F. cemetery. —Umpqua Valley News. The Bandon Hardware Co. have received a new line ot stoves and ranges. They have heaters that heat and ranges that cook.

One of the urgent needs of our little city has at last been realized, and as the men connected with the enterprise are locally known as men that do things when they once get started, we are confident that the dream will be realized—a steam laundry. For the past year or more, we have heard of several different parties who are going to put up such an establishment. They are still going. The new company, recently or ganized have already ordered the necessary machinery, which by-the- way, is of the latest improved kind, ft will be electric throughout, elec tric irons, and all of the other con veniences that can be applied with electricity. This will give an even heat, which will illiminate many of those burned shirt fronts. The new company will be known as the Bandon Steam Laundry, and will occupy the whole of the third floor in the Shingle Mill. Being close to the power house, they can receive suitable power at all times to accomodate their needs. The equipment has already been ordered, and the new company are sufficiently backed financially, as to see that the plant is placed in good running order, and will be under the charge ot an expert laundryman. Home patronage has been one of the leading mottoes of this city, and will be applied to this new enter prise. The names of the new com pany are not as yet made public, but we are given to understand they are prominent business men. A delivery system will take the laundry from the residences and de liver it the same week. We have heard of mythical delivery systems that were to have been in operation before this, and upon the word of the management, we printed an article asking for the support of such an institution, but this will be a sure enough venture, and will be ready to commence as soon as the machinery arrives, which will be shortly after the first of next month, possibly sooner. The Sun Typewriter is a visible w riter. It is a $40 machine of rapid speed, perfect work and heavy mani folding. It has a universal key board anil it is guaranteed in every detail. The U. S. Government has adopted it as the standard machine for the department of the army. For perfect print and perfect align- ment’it is not equaled by any other machine made.

Three years ago souvenir or picture postal cards were on sale in about one hundred stores and shops in the United States. Today they may be had in eighty thousand different places. What was origi nally a fad has become a great busi ness. The picture postal card flourished for years on the Continent. Every small town or inn had a pretty souvenir of this kind, while in the big cities, every place of interest was reproduced on a postal. Then the idea struck the United States. The Eastern cities took it up. Now it has spread to almost every village. Some idea of the extent of the business may be gained wW?n it is stated that a man who has a booth at a seaside resort near New York sells forty-five dollar's worth of postal cards a day. It is esti mated that as much as two hundred thousand dollars a day is spent for picture postals in the United States. So large is the number of picture postal cards passing through the mails every day that special reg ulations have been adopted jpr them. It was only recently that permission was given to write a message on the For Rent. address side.

Number 40 OCTOBER 3, 1907 During the past week State Treas urer Steel has put up $300,000, additional bond to the state, making a total at present of $6oa,ooo. The constitution requires a bond of $50,- 000 on the part of the state treas urer, and under the law which au thorizes the treasurer to loan out funds to the state bank at 2 per cent interest that official must put up as much more bond as the governor sees fit to exact, according to the amounts in the treasury. Shortly after assuming his official duties Trearurer Steel executed an additional bond of $250,000, and, as the funds run very high about the first of July, the governor asked that the total bond be doubled, making the present amount, which is the largest ever given the state by any one officer. When the additional bond was asked there was nearly a million dollars in the treasury, and at the present time there is $585,000. Inasmuch as the banks with which the funds are deposited give the state ample bonds, this seems like double bonding, but it is the law, and Mr. Steel makes no exceptions to it. However this additional bond of $300,000 costs Mr. Steele about $1000, which is additional expense, with no return to himself, and is gracefully accepted as part of the law. By the way, this new bank depository law nets the state an annual revenue of from $7000 to $10,000, and it is highly to Mr. Steel’s credit that he demanded its passage. Besides the running expenses of the state, the treasurer has within the past month paid out about $250,- 000 of the school fund apportion ment and $50, 000 for lands pur chased for the institute for the feeble minded, and. as a result, the funds in the treasury are considerably be- ow the amount of the state treas urer's bond.—Salem Journal.
