Fred Miller was arrested yester day on the charge of killing and having in his possession two hen pheasants. He plead guilty and was fined $25 and costs which he paid.— Register. For some time past a great gray eagle has been preying on G . W. McFarland’s turkeys on the hill range about one mile northwest of this city and so alert was the big bird that efforts of Mr. McFarland and others to bag him came to naught. But like every dog, it seems that every eagle also has his day, and it was up to A. I.. Wynne of this city, to put an end to the ravages of his birdship, and he done it in the most approved fash ion, bringing the eagle into town Sunday when a rule laid over the spread of its wings revealed the fact that it measured more than six feet from tip to tip. The big bird was secured by Warren Mc Farland who sent it to a taxider mist at Kugene to be mounted and it will hereafter perch aloft in Mr. McFarland’s cigar store in the new Woodward brick.

Miss Garroutte also present ed the Leader with a lxix of splen did Concord grapes all being the products of her father’s Coast Fork farm — “ products of Nesmith county” as Miss Garroutte announ ced to the editor. A. C. Piper, son of our towns man, S. R. Piper, came up from Portland last Wednesday and re turned Monday. He is a member of the metal ceiling, and cornice and heating firm of Temple & Pi per, and delivered the metal ceiling for the new Woodward brick in this city. "A rch” made the Leader a pleasant call and had his measure taken for another year’s worth of this popular fireside companion. No man is smart enough to be funuy when he is drunk. P'very married man realizes that he talked too much during his en gagement. Trespass notices printed on cloth at the Leader office, six for 25 cents.

Jones went to Creswell to day to assist Chas. Cochran in building a neat cottage on his re cently acquired one-half acre tract in Creswell. Mrs. Saul Dawson of Divide was transacting business in this city Monday—subscribing for the twice-a-week Leader for a year, among other things. Will Cunningham and W. A. Ilogate went up to Sharp’s creek in the Bohemia foot hills today to build three new bridges for Road Supervisor F. J . Hard. Mrs. J . C. Booth, the wife of a prominent Lebanon physician spent Sunday visiting at the home of Supt. E. K. Barnes of the Cot tage Grove public schools. War on China was declared at daylight Friday— that is China pheasants, but the slaughter was not very great hereabouts. The birds are not numerous this season. We call your special attention to the “ Foster's Lots” ad on this page. I’rices are right, terms are right, $10 down, $10 a month, no interest, no taxes. Best buy in Eugene today. H. B. Neill has ordered the ad dress of his Leader chauged from Cottage Grove to Dorena. He says “ the Leader isn’t very large, but is chuck full of interesting news and 1 do not want to miss a single copy of it.” Frank Snodgrass, Green Pitcher, Walt Groves, Nat Martin and Hor ace Cochran have returned from their hunt beyond Bohemia. The boys report game scarce, Mr. Pitch er being the only one to bag any big game to speak of. We were requested the other day, by a merchant who never ad vertises, to advise our people not to buy goods from peddlers or at other towns. He pretends to think it don’t pay to advertise, so we don’t see how he can figure that such an article could do any good. Clarence Morss who recently lost his wife and infant baby, is now confined to his lied at the home of his father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. S. B. Morss with an attack of typhoid fever. Trouble is not com ing single to him. His many friends hope to hear of his early recovery. Whenever you hear a fellow crit icising or knocking the Leader you can just set it down that he is a violator of certain laws of the city and state, or is in sympathy with the fellows who are violators of said laws. These fellows are mak- ingnew business and new subscrip tions for the Leader every day. Will F. Hart has been awarded the contract for the building of II. Venske’s fine new two story brick on main street and with a force of men commenced work Saturday. The uew brick will be 50x95 feet the entire ground floor to be occu pied by Walker & Kinter’s furniture store. Contractor Hart expects to have the building ready for occu pancy before Christmas.

Our Interests Are Mutual The best thing we give you is the best for you to buy and for us to see that you get. If we were not certain that the clothes we handle were the best you can get for your money wq couldn’t afford to ask you to buy them. VIKING CLOTHES Are all wool and the workmanship both inside aud out has been done as much by hand as possible. These features add to both the wearing and shape retaining qualities of a suit. In addi tion to the superior workmanship you will find the lines to the garments—the style and fit are vastly different from ordiuary ready-to-wear clothes. The broad concave shoulders aud full chests will give your figure that swagger effect so much desired.

Mr. W. C. Conner, Editor Cottage Grove Leader. Dear Sir:— With the close of the Alaska-Y ulfou-Pacific exposition and the end of our work of ex ploitation and publicity, 1 want to assure you of my personal appre ciation of the contribution you aud your paper have made toward our success. No matter how com plete and interesting the exposi tion has been, it could not have been a success without that pub licity which has been given it by you and the owners and editors of other newspapers of the Pacific northwest. Since 1 took charge of the ex ploitation and publicity of the ex position last October this division has been heartily and effectively supported by the northwestern press. I have found a general feeling that the exposition would be and has been of greatest bene' fit to all sections. I am certain, as I believe you are, that we will all realize this benefit the more fully as time goes on. With earnest thanks for your generous co-operation and best wishes for success in all your un dertakings, I remain very sincere ly yours, J ames A. W ood , Director of Exploitation. ‘ FOSTER’S LOTS Have you thought how you can make some easy money, without working from 7. a. m. to 7 p. m.? The average man works from eight to ten Itours each day, for his entire life, without saving enough to keep him during his old age and when he gets too old to support himself. You ask the rea son for this. It is because he does not SAVE his dollars and cents when he is Y O U N G . The habit of saving is easily cultivated when you are young.

Terms $10.00 Down, A well filled house greeted the “ Lena Rivers” company at the armory Monday evening, which opened the theatrical season at this place. Bessie Canwright as “ Lena Rivers” was very pleasing, while Jack Bronner, as “ Cousin John” was decidedly clever and supplied much clean comedy. Everett Gallagher as “ Belmont,” and Annie Girard as "G ranny,” were both strong characters. Flossy Fay as “Caroline” inter preted her part well, but her role is not a popular one. Theater goers were very well pleased with the performance. $10.00 The Eugene Register of Sunday said: “ F. G. Conley of the Cot tage Grove Commercial Club was in the city yesterday and informs the Register that the club expects to receive its issue of 10,000 com munity books advertising Cottage Grove and vicinity, next Friday.
