Life Saving Station
Kcynidiujj the outer bar bony,
which wnH reported in ycHtcrdav's
daily as havitifr dtifted fioiu its
position, we have mccived a note
ftont Cart Norman Nelson, ol
the Cape Arayo I,i(e .Saving
station, under dnte of Kel. 27th
saying:
"I bej; to iufonu you of the fact
that the Outer Jlur Hony, 1st
elasw can, black and white per
pendicular stiipes, parted Ironists
moonu'-s at a am tun morning, '
... ... ,

Noilli Jetty."
This note was scut up Tlitirs- :
, . ,, ... ,
day by Capt. Nelson, who is
, , , I
nhviiyx keenly alive to the inter-'
cuts of the tciegoiiig ceiniuetceof
this jvoit, but did not reach this
office until the next morning.
It well illustrates the fact that
telephone councctio with the
station would be of immense
benefit to our shippm-; interests
When the line from the life
baviug station to the lookout at
the bar is completed, the matter
hhould b" rftiuiigly put before the
department and thru: is no dpult
that a cable would be put in and
connection made at liuipire.

March nth. The concert will be
given in the Odd KellcwV Hall,
Reseived seats will be on sale in a

the feat of the year. J'he daily
Chronicle of The Dalles says of
them:
"Tlic Meneley Quartette beats
nil the circti?e? and luiuattcls and
comedies we have ever witnessed.
It was more than an en ertaiu-,
meul, it was a sermon, and a
set moil that will long be icuieiu-bercd."

INO TROUBLE ANTICIPATED
FOR ALLIANCE AT EUREKA
The Slcnmcr Alliance sailed
Yesterday afternoon for Kurchn
and San Francisco, being the
only vessel to cross out or in.
There has been some doubt
here as to what sort of reception
she would meet with nl Kurekn,
as the reports from that point in
dicate that the Kureka authorities
have a Miialipox icarc.
It seems that they requested the
Gray Steamship Co. to IcaveCoos
Hay off the Alliance route,, on
pain of being foi bidden to lar.d at
Kureka, and to this the Gray
Steamship Co tct.lied, to th ef
led that li cither Coos ISay or Ku

Then the Kurck-
Jans modified their views, and on
the 20th had sobered off to the
I jvoitit of allowing the Alliance to
.land anything from here except
passenger,

Uefoie the steamer kit yester-

oay sue was vi.micu oy vuy
Health Officer Miugus, who care
fully inspected passengers and
crew. He gave the boat a clean
bitl of health and ..cut a letter to
the Kureka authorities giving
them official information of the
conditions here, and it is not an
ticipated that the steamer or her
passcngeis will have any trouble
landing at Kutcka.
There would now be fully as
much trnsou in our quarantining
against Kureka, as in their qintr
auliiiug against us.

A TRAGIC TAIJj-'
FROM EMPIRE CITY
Man f.oses llii Purse anj Contents
While Seeing the Etc
pliant
It is reported that one of the
pa scngers who have been wait
ing at Kinpire City for the Area
ta to get to sea i.'ra poorer and
perhaps wiser man than, he was
day before yesterday.
As the story goes, he was
drinking with a crowd in a saloon
Wednesday evening when a well
known daughter of one of the
I'Mrsi families of Oregon came in
and joined in the festivities. The
hero ol the story and the voting
female soon joined company and
adjourned to more private quar
tc rs.
When the adventurer appeared
again in rociety, clothed and in
his light mind, lie reported that
his pur.c, containing $40 in eaih,
his trurk keys and checks, had
mysteriously disappeared.
So far as heard Ironi his prop
ertv had not been recovered.
The bar was reported to be un
usually rough Thursday afternoon
and had not abated last night. A
man Ironi the light house report
id at Kinpire that the waves were
1 leaking clear over tl.u bridge
that connects the lighthouse with
the main laud. Several timbers
from the jetty fiqated up the bay
an fur us Kinpire so it is surmised
that considerable damage has been
done to the jetty, but just what
the extent of thedsinnge has been
cannot be learned at this issue.
John Merchant of Dean & Co's
store measured one of the hail
stones that fell Thursday morning
and found it to be fj of an inch
tluough and J4 of an i.ich long,
Hail stones of this size aic
curiosities in Coos.
