MnreMnM Notes. From the New». Word has been received by the local agent of the steamer Break water, that while lying at her dock in Portland, that that structure had taken fire and was considerably dam aged bv the flames. The Break water pulled out in the stream with slight damage. A school for the colored and mixed blood children has been established in West Marshfield with Miss Pen nock as teacher. The school au- thorities shoultl see that these chil- dren now attend the school regularly and not be absent one-half, of the time as was the case w ith the last school provided for their lienefit. G. W. Shelly, mayor of Prosper, Ore., and traveling representative of the Wm. Cluff Company, grocers, San Francisco, is in the city calling on his trade, says the Astoria Asto- rian of Oct. iXth. Some time ago Mr. Shelly became interested at Prosper, Oregon, four miles from Bandon, on the Coquille River, and purchased a piece of land which he plated and is meeting with splendid success, having sold over ioo lots. This is a sawmill town and he has just helped to incorporate a new company which will operate under the name of the Spencer, Shelly Lumber Co. Work on the mill has already began and will be rushed through. It will have a cutting ca pacity of 60,000 feet per day, and be modern in every respect. A box factory will also be started, and they are now on the lookout for a prac tical boxmaker to take charge of the plant. He reports things very pros pering on the Coquille, and thinks that Prosper will make one of the best cities ot the coast, and if any one can do it, Shelly can, as when it comes to “peddling the hot" we take off our hat to him for he's an artist. However, he is deserving of all the good luck that is coming his way. Port Orford Notes. From The Tribune. West Waite anti wife, who have been down the coast «luring the sum mer, returned to Port Orford a short time ago, and will proliably move to Bandon to spentl the winter. but fortunately not running into anything, and doing no damage, although evidently bent upon break ing all speed records for stage time, which they would have doubtless succeeded in doing, had not ye editor and his race horse run them down after a two mile chase, No jiassengers were in the wagon, and though it was a wild runaway, it was a most fortunate one. Tobacco Gone Up. All kinds of it, choice imported Havanas, 50-cent straights, two for twenty-live, pi|>e mixtures and even the lowly stogie have gone Hying skyward at the mandate of the tobacco trust. The balloon races in price of luxuries are on. Commencing with this week, all the Portland tobacconists put the new schedule into effect. Havana cigars were the hardest hit and smokers of the choice imported sort will either have to rearrange their taste or their pocket books. Cigars that have been selling since the memory of man and the tobacco trust at two for a quarter, will here after be 15 cents straight. And the scorned 10-cent varieties have wormed their way up into 'igh society at a two for a quarter rate. There is a general advance of at least Ji a box on all gt ods—in some cases the increase is larger—the es pecially tine cigars bringing several dollars a box more than formerly. Even the chewers are hard hit in the pull movement. Wholesalers have advanced the prices on all plug and fine cut tobaccos to the retailers, and the latter are preparing to get even by taking the increase out of the consumers. Smoking tobaccos of all kinds have also Liken a cloudward tack and the pipe smokers are up against the same proposition as their brother smokers. When it comes to explaining the sharpest advance known in the his tory of the tobacco business, numer ous opinions are ventured, all of which strike tobacco, users as friv olous. Excuse No. 1, is, of course, short crop, and is checked off with out comment. Excuse No. 2, is, that the fillers have forced an increase in wages of 1 cent a cigar. Excuse No. 3, is, that all kinds of lalvor in the tobacco fields, ware houses, and cigar factories, have gone up. on the Chamber of Commerce the other morning, and Secretary Cilt- ner gave him several valuable point - Mr. Giltner ers in the matter, thinks Port Orford cedar is what he wanted, anil specimens of this tim ber have been submitted. This cedar is found along the south western coast of Oregon. “ The company has been getting its timber from the South recently, but this supply thrcaiens to give out,” Mr. Giltner says, ‘‘while we have untold quantities of suitable limber for the purpose in Oregon. If Mr. Chicchest er can get just what he needs he will provide for sending four or five carloads a day to the factory at Chattanooga. "The timber must be soft o straight grain and of uniform hard ness, so as to take on polish easily, I feel confident that we can get him just what he wants." Timber I .ami Act.
