Philip Brack, one of Coos county’s earliest pioneers, died at his home ou the Middle Fork last Wednoiday, A pril 20th, and had he lived until September he would have reached the eighty-second milestone of this life. By request of the de ceased the interment took place on the old homestead. The funeral was largely attended by his many ' friends of the upper river, the ser- * vifef s being conducted by Rev. Thomas Barklow. The deceased was a natiye of Germuny.’and was one of the sur vivors of the government transport schoouer, “ Captain Lincoln,” which was wrecked near the Coos Bay bar early in January, 1852. H. H. Baldwin, who passed through this city a few days ago on his way to Santa Monica, where lie will enter li e aoldiers home, is the only re- maiuing survivor as far ns is known, a sketch of their experiences being recorded in Dodge’s history of Coos nn I Curry counties. The deceased is survived by a wife, two sous and five daughters. Oscar Hughes lujured Oscar Hughes, secoli I son of Mr. and Mrs H. C. Hughes, who re cently moved from near this city to B indoli, whn horribly an I no doubt fatally manftled at the Smith-Powers camp No. 2 shortly after noon yes terday. As we understand t he was hand, hug a line on which a donkey was working, and was accidt ntally caught in coils of the elack when the engines were started.

Deyoe, of Myrtle Point, was iu this city last Friday, being on his wftj home from liaudon where he has been since his return from bis winter home at K iveisi le, Cali fornia Iu conversation with Mr. Dryot we len’ n of a new enterprise which is about to be launched in this valley, the success of which would be bailed with great pleasure by all of its residents. The enterprise referred to is the promotion of investigations into oil prospec.s on Bear creek by the Miocene Oil and Gas Co., an aggre gation of local people who have con fidence iu prospects discovered. Six thousand acres of land have been leased, the machinery ordered and all necessary arrangements made for the work of boriDg to be gin at an early date. 8 o flattering are the prospects on this company’s holdings that outside experts are offering large sums for their lease The great benefits to be derived from the development of large and successfully operated oil works on the Coquille sre so well understood that it is unnecessary for us to uudertake to show to our readers the importance of this enterprise Suffice it to say that we sincerely hope that our friends are on the right track and that their most sanguine anticipations may be more than realized. Complimentary to the enterprise of their locality, Fishtrap farmers took time to meet and organize the first Fnrmers’ Educational and Co operative Union in Coos county. A t a meeting held iu the school bouse last Friday evening a large audience wag addressed by Chas. A. Hill. State Organizer, of Pendle ton, Oregon, final plans for the or ganization were perfected and the following officers elected and duly installed to act for the remainder of the year: H. L. Stephens, Pres.; C. T. Robison, Vice Pres.; Geo. Henniuger, Sec.; Mrs. J. H. Rada- baugh, Chap.; E. A. Wimer, Con.; Itbaraer Robison, Doorkeeper. The executive committee is to be ap pointed by President Stephens and announced at the next meeting. Meetings will be held upon the first and third Saturday evenings of each month. The charier members of Fishtrap Union exceeds 24, sml there are still many in the neighborhood who fully believe in the utility of farmers’ organizations, and express a desire to belong to this one.

The Neil-Day boxing contest was pulled offal Marshfield on Saturday night before a large and enthusiastic crowd o f admirers of the fisticuff art, and proved very satisfactory to all present. While it could be seen early in the bout that N iel had the better of it in a general way, they held out the 20 rounds of lively scrapping, at the end of which the decision was given to Neil. The preliminaries were, first, a four round bout between Barney Gibson and “ Happy Hooligan,” of the Bay side, and was lively to the end, though Gibson showed up to be the more clever o f the two. It was declared a draw. fh e second was by Pud Nosier and Arthur Fish, o f Coquille, and was a hummer, but came abruptly to an end iu the sixth round when it was discovered that Nosier had severely injured his right hand, some of the bones being fractured where they will reside The decision was given to Fish.

Recently Newly Furnished Throughout 1 m u u ^ iiu u i Circuit Court The circuit court of Coos comity is iu the midst of one of the longest terms in its history. It was con vened last week by Judge Coke, but owing to the fact that he is in terested as attorney in several cases, Judge Harris, of Eugene, appeared on the bench Monday morning. Last week Judge Coke heard many pleadings in various cases and on Wednesday took up the Myrtle Point ‘‘boot-legging’’ cases. Jess Warfield, Frank Wylaud, 8 ig Aasen and Thomas Cornelius were fined $100 each and given 30 days in jail. Judge H all has ordered them to work ou the county roads. There ^re many important cases on the docket and it is supposed that some 20 days will yet lie con sumed before it is cleared up. ►* • * - P rop rietor IRBY and M an ager \ > W . H.
