Mr. Shanafelt was engaged in the photograph business in Cot tage Grove a number of years ago and was well and favorably known here. The Hoe Lumber Co., Messrs. Gawley, Rissue & Crowell, sus tained quite a loss from the little coast gale which swept over from the old Pacific last Thurs day night and which laid low several hundred feet of their newly constructed flume from their mill to the railroad track on the east end of the Felix Currin farm. About four days work for a small force of men and a few hundred feet of additional lum ber will repair the damage.
