Number 49 >* STEAMER ELIZABETH HAS NEW CABIN * f jj ♦ s First Class Ai.» Accomodation« for nine more Pa»- a sengers M KTIER KEPT BOAT ON COAST While at San Francisco on her last trip the steamer Elizabeth had her new cabin, which was mentioned in the R ecorder some time ago, put on and now she has first class accomodations for nine more pas sengers, with state rooms opening outside. The state rooms are large and commodious and are fit ted up with all the modern con veniences of boats on the coast. The Elizabeth is one of the best kept vessels plying along the Pacific coast, and is manned with as good a crew as can be found anywhere. She was built to run between the Goquille river and San Francisco and the has never gone anywhere else, but has been on this run now for five years, making regular trips, whether business conditions were good or not. Bandonians are all proud of the Elizabeth and are glad of the fact that business is so good for her as to make Mr. Kruse feel ified in putting on the new im which not only adds to betMundy first class accomodations, btlt makes her a much more pre- possessing vessel. The Elizabeth arrived in port Tuesday evening with several pas- seugers on board and about 250 tons of freight. Cramer Stock Co. The Cramer Stock Co. made their first appearance at the Bandon opera house last Friday evening, and played to a well filled house. Mr. Cramer, himself, is so well known here that his work needs no introduc ion, but suffice tosaythat as Brown in the great comedy My Friend Brown, he kept the h<mse in convulsions of laughter fron^astart to finish. The entire trouj e are real artists in their work and they will no doubt be greeted with well iMed houaes at every performance. They will be here again Friday evening of this week and will play A Southern Jack Rose. After next Friday they will appear here on Wednesday of each week. Council The city council of Bandon met in regular session at the city hall Tues day evening and went through with the regular routine of business, which in this instance was mostly for street improvement. The council intends to make an aggressive street campaign, and im prove the streets just as fast as money and demands will warrant. After considerable discussion of various subjects several motions were put through, among which was a motion to open Columbia Avenue from Atwater St. to the county road, the owner of the prop •rty having designated his willing ness to give a quit claim deed to the right-of-way providing the city would batld the street. A motion aaopmi 5th St from Columbia Ave IB tha plank road was also carried. •Ml Councilman Radley, Hoover Md Shields Were appointed as a Committee to estimate the cost of such MFaM. A committee consist iqg of Mayor Qallier, Councilman a n a Hoover and Marshal Gardner was pointed to investigate the cost t ditching the pond on Pacific Ave , I and to proceed with the work. A motion to take up the G n Cox proposition to grade the str< t in front of his place was carried. A committee composed of Mayor Gailier and Councihnen Radley and Shields was appointed to estimate the cost for repairs on the high 4th street bridge and to advertise for bids for same. It was decided to sell the present pest house property, and to m.k • an effort to secure other property in a more suitable location for the purpose, this idea was unanimously concurred in by all members of the council present. The grade on Columbia Ave from Iris street to First Street wa ac cepted. Council then adjourned to meet Dec. 31.
