Vast Poasibilities Seen and 1911
Pri m ■ ses Proeparity.
'■ N ehalem , Ore., Feb. 11—Slowly
but surely the vast possibilities of
- this part of Oregon are becoming
iknown and appreciated both by the
”old settlers and what the Nelialeui-
i.ites call the ‘‘outsiders.”
The railroad now being built to
^the coast from Portland is mote
^frequently called "the Tillamook
and Nehaletn road,” rather than
>the Nehalem and Tillamook Rail-
v«road The general impression is
■that the P. R. & N. Railway reaches
.•‘.the coast first at Tillamook. Then
win some way, up or down the coast,
later reaches Nehalem.
I The facts are that the railroad
reaches Nehalem fully one hour
8 sooner than it reaches Tillamook.
So that Nehalem is the place where
'passengers from Portland to the
coast this Summer will get their
; first glimpse of the Pacific Ocean.
One other interesting fact not
K generally known is that, while
■ Tillamook Bay and bar intprove-
H uients have been appealed to for
® Government aid in such iniprove-
,>J meats, Nehalem Bay people, with-
out noise or flurry, organized the
K- Port of Nehalem aud the Governor
.. , appointed a board of commission
ers which at once proceeded to
issue bonds for the amount of
$50,000. A contract was let for jetty
work and now for four months the
work has gone steadily forward and
several hundred feet of jetty has al
ready been built and it is the opin
ion of Government engineers that
the Port Commission will have
sufficient funds to complete 1000
feet of jetty. This will practically
cut off what is known as the "south
channel” at the mouth^of the Ne
halem River, and it is the opinion
of engineers in charge of this work
that in thus confining the strong
current of the river to one outlet
will insure it depth of 20 feet on this
bar, almost equal to the depth of
water on the Columbia River bar.
No bay or bar on the Pacific
Ocean can be as easily or cheaply
improved aa the Nehalem Bar and
Bay and thia ia now being done
without any appeal to Congress or
Government aid.
Another evidence that Nehalem
ia awakening ia found in the
changed attitude of the County
Cotnmiaeioners and Court touching
good roads for thia part of Tilla
mook County. It will be a glad
surprise to automobiles this Sum
mer to find a splendid, well-built
drive-way from the Town of Ne
halem to the fine beaches two
miles west of town. Another and
more important highway lias been
ordered opened from
Nehalem
around Necarney (Mountain
(the
highest mountain peak along tlie
Pacific Coast between
California
and British Columbia) to connect
with a like road now being built
When this
by Clatsop County,
automobiles
road is completed
can atari at Seaside, go to Ne-
haleru on a 5 per cent grade,
thence go on to Portland via Till
amook and Sheridan.
An attractive resort depot will be
erected at Fishers’ Point to accotn
modate the beach dwellers. This
will be finished within a month. A
driveway from bay to ocean is also
under contract to be built without
delay. Several attractive cottages
will be built before the first of June, I
while one enthusiastic beach-holder
haa established himself on the I
ocean front, where he intends to
erect a large number of well-built
and well-furnished tents.

Much interest is now taken in the oil

Nearly every citizen haa invested in
some of the stock. The oil well is
now down over a thousand feet and i

A prominent California oil

FREAKS OF NATURE.
COAXING SLEEP.
Quesr Rock Formations on the
Island of St Helena.
Three are at least two queer freaks
of nature on the Island of St. Helena—
or, rather, four, for one of them la •
group of three figures — known
world over as the ‘'Devil’s Nose”
“Lot and His Daughters.” Any one
who is able to study the Island as It Is
and not run wild over the Napoleonic
legends which have clustered about
that ''seabound rock” since the days
when the “Little Corporal" was boused
there in bis living grave will find much
that will repay for investigation, time
and study.
The queerest of the natural forma
tions are the oddities above alluded to.
The first of these Imitative forms is a
rocky promontory which has been
known by names which signify Old
Nick's misa! projection since May 22,
1502, when Juan Castella aud bls men
sighted the island Just in time to see
the devil disappear beneath the waves
in the best harbor, leaving his nose as
a reminder of what might happen
should the venturesome Spaniard seek
to take possession of his Satanic inaj
ettv's favorite haunts.
"Lot and Ills Daughters” are three
coni« al rocks which can only be con
Jure«! Into representing a man and two
women by a strong play of the Imag
ination. A«x-ordlng to the views of
some writers they are weather worn
statues of colossal size, probably the
work of some aborigines of the Island.
Their gigantic size, however, would
seem to preclude this Idea. When or
by whom they were dubbed "Lot and
His Daughters" no authority has ven-
t ured to say.
limply a Question of Will Power and
Self Suggeetion.
Ordinarily we do uot sleep by acci
dent or haphazard. We simply resolve
to sleep, and Belf suggestion plays a
great part In the production of sleep.
We go through a variety of actions,
all suggestive» of a change from our
normal waklug condition.
We un
dress; we place ourselves In a com
fortable position; we close our eyes;
we believe aud expect we are going to
sleep, and the result is—sleep.
One of the great preventives of sleep
is the fear of not sleeping, but a writer
in Harper's Bazar says that once this
fear Is broken down we sleep anyhow.
The insomniac worries about his In
somnia. and this very worry deepens
the mischief; hence the sufferer should
suggest to himself again and again,
“If I sleep, well; If I don't sleep, I
will at least gain rest by keeping my
mind calm aud my body relaxed.”
In a word, our chances of getting
sleep Increase if we assume the ex
ternal physical attitude which corre
sponds to sleep if we relax every
muscle and let It May relaxed, if we
breathe lightly and regularly. If we
call up the Imagination of a sleeping
person and talk and think sleep to
ourselves, repeating silently and in a
quiet, dreamy faslik'n such a formula
as this:
“There is no reason why I should
not sleep. Therefore I can sleep.
Therefore I will sleep. My mind is at
peace. Sleep is coming. I am gettlug
sleepy. I am about to sleep. I am
asleep.”
CONJURING BIRDS.
John Newcomb Was a Close Observer
and Was Hard to Suit.
The sister of Simon Newcomb, the
great astronomer, tells in McClure’s
of their father's John Newcomb’s wan
derings In search of a wife, whom lie
had decided to select in accordance
with scientific theories:
“John Newcomb stopped at farm
houses for his refreshment, and in
each house. If there was a daughter of
marriageable age, he tarried perhaps
a day or even longer to make a study
of the maiden. He always made him
self 'handy' about the place, drawing
up water with the great well sweep,
bringing in firewood—doing anything
that he could do and still keep near
the daughter.
“Disappointment met him at every
door. At one house the cooking was
poor, at another the house was not
neatly kept, at a third there was scold
ing or faultfinding, a want of har
mony—and In all the maidens a lack
of desire for learning or education.
One young woman little knew by whnt
a narrow margin she missed her fate.
All was going smoothly till, when sits
was molding the dough for the baking
pans, he noticed that a considerable
portion of the dough wa> left In the
wooden kneading trough. He ask««l
her the reason for this, and her reply
was that she left It for the horse be
cause be was fond of It. She alwaya
did this, she said; there was plenty.
‘Want of thrift,’ decided the young
man. and he shouldered bls bundle aud
walked on.”
Trick Sparrows of Hongkong and One
of Their Feats.
The famous Chinese conjuring birds
are Java sparrows, At street corners
in Hongkong sedate old Chinese may
be seen putting the birds through their
tricks for the benefit of strangers.
Each birdcage has a sliding door,
and Just outside this is a pack of little
cardcases, each containing a picture
and a small pot holding half a dozed
grains of rice.
When the stranger, pursuant to the
suggestion of the owner, bands over
the necessary coin this Is placed with
the pack of cards at the cage door.
Then the owner will undo the fasten
ing of the door. The bird, eying the
coin, then the cards, then the colli
again, as If he thought his perforin
ance too cheaply valued, descends
from his perch, oiiens the door with
91.« beak, bops outside, draws a card
from the pack and passes It to bls
master, lie receives In reward one
grain of rice.
The man takes the little picture
from the case received from the bird
and hands It to the stranger to inspect.
He then returns it to the case, accom
panied by the tiniest flat slip of bam
boo, aud shuffles the case up with the
rest of the pack. The bird descends
aud selects a case, and the stranger
opens It, to find the Identical one con-
talaing the bamboo.
How cnn this be accounted for? The
only possible way of explaining Is
that the bamboo slip Is slightly scent
ed.—Exchange.
Rough on the Pianos.
Once In the company of President
Diaz I spent a few nights lu the Mex
ican earthquake zone as the guest of
the governor of the state. As a meas
ure of precaution the plaster ceilings
of our sleeping rooms had been re-
plai-ed with strips of matched board
ing. “If it trembler should come In the
uigbt.' senor,” remarked my host as he
was bidding me good night, “wait for
nothing, but make straight for the pa
tio. I think these boards will bold un
til you get from under cover.” And
that evening, when I took the gover
nor’s wife out to dinner, she had re
marked sadly: 'We are so beniabted
here In the hot lands. It is impossible
evmi to have music, for no sooner do I
have my grand piano tuned than an
earthquake comes along and tips It
over.”—E Alexander Powell, F. R. G.

Origin of the Opera.
The opera, like nearly everything
else interesting in th? world of mind,
had Its origin In ancient Athens. The
earliest librettos were by Sophocles
and Aeschylus, such as the "Abamem-
non” and "Antigone,” a band of flutes
and lyres constituting the orchestra,
the dialogues being musk-ally declaim
ed and the choruses sung to the beet
music of the time. Thus do we have
the germ of all later developments la
the line of opera.—Exchange.
