Capt. J. Polhemug, assistant in
charge of the United States engin
eering office at Portland, arrived
here on the Breakwater this morn
ing to spend a week or ten days on
Coos Bay and in the Coqnille valiey
to personally acquaint himself with
the proposed improvements for nav
igation. Major Mclndore, the en
gineer in charge of the Portland
office, is now at Port Orford where
he went on lighthouse tender Hea
ther with Major Pond to put in a
signal light on the reaf near Cape
Blanco and will return via Coos Bay
and spend some time here. The
Chamber of Commerce of North
BeDd and Marshfield and the men
at both plaoes who have been work,
ing for further improvements in the
harbor will probably arrange for a
public meeting in their honor aud
see that a both have ample oppor
tunity to become familiar with the
needs and great possibilities of the
harbor.
Capt. Polhemus greatly regretted
the aocident which befell the dredge
Oregon, and he hoped to see her
throwing mud on his arrival.
Capt. Polhemus nas been a warm
friend of Coos Bay as those who
have had anything to do with the
efforts to deqelop it well know.
It is hoped to float the dredge on
the high tide today.
A concrete
pocket has been built over the hole
in the bottom of the dredge to pre
vent the filling of the hold with
water. The Columbia and pumps
of the dredge are pumping out the
water that ran iD after the accident.
The dredge will remain on the piling
until the temporary repair is made
today and then 3 he will be run onto
the mudflat where the hole iu the
bottom can be patched. It is like
ly that Capt. Polhemus will make a
thorough investigation of the acci
dent.—Coos Bay Times.

Emil Heuckendorff, the Prosper
shipbuilder nd one of the best
known pioneers of the Coquille Val
ley country, died at Mercy hospital
in North Bend this morning of diph
theria.
Death was very sudden,
Mr. Heuckendorff having traveled
over from Coquille yesterday after
noon and gone to the hospital last
evening.
Mr. Heuckendorff thought that
his affliction was n.erely a sore-
throat or pneumonia, his chest pain
ing him. A 1 Coquille he was ad
vised to remai-i there as he appeared
ill, but he insisted on coming to the
hospital. He walked over to the
train alone and on reaching Marsh
field was taken to the hospital in an
automobile.
Mrs. Heuckendorff is now in the
hospital at San Francisco where she
has been receiving treatment for
some time.
IJMr Heuckendorff was weJJ known
throughout this section, his ability
as a shipbuilder having gained him
a wide reputation on the Pacific
coast.
He was about sixty-two
years old. Coming to Coos Bay
upwards of a quarter of a century
ago, he was employed for a time as
a ship carpenter. Later he engaged
in business for himself and estab
lished a ship yard in Marshfield
where F. S. Dow’s warehouse now
stands. When his lease expired on
this site, he moved to North Bend,
and later movtfd to Prosper where
he established his present extensive
yards,

Heuckendorff was one of the Re
