Lumbermen to Come Tonight.
C. A. Smith and A. H. Powers are
expected in about 6 o'clock this
evening from Minneapolis. Arno
Mereen, general superintendent of
the C. A. Smith mill, left this after
noon for Sumuer iu a special boat
to meet them.
Mr. Powers has been east on busi

OUR NEW
OPERA HOUSE.
Will be Opened October 13th
by the McKenzie Merry
Makers.
The dance hall of I. R. Ncsler, of
this city, has undergone a complete
cbaDge. A roomy stage has been
placed in the south end of the hall
and the dressing rooms have been
removed from the north end. This
in no way lessens the floor space for
dances and makes the building one
of the best theatres in the county.
A heavy canvas will be kept on
the floor during theatrical perform
ances to prevent any damage.
A dance was given in the hall
Saturday night which was well at.
tended and enjoyed by all partici
pating.
The theatre will be opened on
the 13th by the McKenzie Merry-
Makers, who played to crowded
houses here a short time ago. Their
first bill will be "In Wyoming.” This
is a four act comedy drama dealing
with western life. One feature of
the opening night will be the nauie-
iug of the new house, which will be
done by the company. No name
has been given out by Bob McKen
zie, but it is thought that the bouse
will be named after his wife.
“In Wyoming” was played in
Marshfield Monday night, McKen
zie’s opening night there, and he
showed to over 1000 people. It
was pronounced the best that has
been there i d a long time. The
company has been strengthened by-
two new people. A new leading
man has arrived from Seattle, and
has made a hit at North Bend and
Marshfield. He is one of the best
in the business.

The Coos Bay Coal Briquetting
Company has been organized here
with a capital of $20,000 to carry

the lignite coal fouud in this section.
The entire stock has been subscribed
and at a meeting to be held this
evening, the articles of incorpora

elected.
The company’s operations will be
under the direction of W. A. Theis,
who has been making a study of
this coal with a view to briquetting
it. He has plans prepared for the
machinery required and believes
that be will be able to briquette it
without using any foreign substance
as a binder. In case the latter is
needed, it can be furnished for
about fitly cents per ton.
The briquetting of Coos Bay coal
will be one of the biggest things
that has happened tor this section
in a long time. It will make the
product ot the local mines sought
everywhere as a fuel, the slacking
drawback being eliminated by it.
