Newport, Ore., June 1. (Special)
A trip to Newport at any time dur
ing May or June is a glimpse Into
fairy land. The valleys are green,
and the forests are greener. There
are great splotches of yellow along
the railroad, where the Scotch broom
is getting a foothold. On the hill
sides there 19 the purple of lupines
and the banks of the streams are
lhied with the Oregon Hawthorne.
When you reach the ocean hills they
are dotted with the roses of the sea
mists the lordly rhododendrons. The
queen of flowers was named by the
Greeks, rhodos, meaning red and
dendron for the five petals. To see
clusters of these blooms shining like
great roses from the dark green
thickets of the firs is a sight well
worth the trip to the seashore at this
time of the year. The trail to the
old lighthouse Is guarded against rav
lshing these great blossoms of the
sun, by signs forbidding picking
them, and lovers' lane Is a mass of
blooming fragrance, coming from a
thousand other flowers and shrubs.
The blossom sprays of the huckle
berry and salal are nearly as beauti
ful, If not as showy, as the big for
est of roses.
Good Railroad Service.
The Southern Pacific is operating
fine solid trains to Newport, mak
ing close connections at Albany and
Corvallls both ways, and the' round
trip fares makes the1 traveling very
cheap. Leaving Salem at 11 o'clock,
one Is at Newport In time for supper.
The scenery over the mountains and
down the bay Is grand and delightful,
and while going up the mountains
whets the appetite, going down to the
ocean does not help matters, and. you
eat until you feel sorry for the people
who serve the meals.
Better Hotel Facilities.
The new Abbey house will be a
surprise to most Newport visitors. It
is a concrete building of three stories
and about 100 rooms, with baloncles
running along the entire front over
the second and third stories. These
balconies command a fine view of the
bay and overlook the steamer landing
The rooms are fitted with hot and
cold water, andl about half of them
have baths connected. The dining
room will seat about 200, and there
Is a grill to be opewed about July 1,
Mort and Edward Abbey, sons of Mr.
and Mrs. Peter Abbey, are in charge
of the house, and they have a wide
acquaintance and know the wants of
the public and. bid fair to maintain
the reputation of their father and
mother. The house has bee'n nearly
full on several occasions before the
season opens up, and its accommo.
datlons will be taxed to the utmost
when the crowds begin to arrive.
There Is a fine bar in connection. The
rates are $2.50 per day and upwards,
but for that price first-class service
Is assured. The Abbey Hotel com
pany has done for Newport what the
Marlon Hotel company has done for
Salem mado room for the best class
of people to come here and' get good
entertainment.
Other Hotel Accommodations.
J. H. H. Anderson, former owner
of the Union Hotel, at Portland. Is
erecting a 40-room house right down
on the sand beach, about 300 feet
north of the natatorium. It Will be
named "The Nlcolal," after his little
son. It will have a sun parlor on the
ocean veranda enclosed in glass, 80
feet long, and the high tide will dash
Its waves right up to the balustrades.
He will serve meals and rooms. .W.
D. Wheeler, who has for 33 years
resided in North Salem, conducts the
Cliff House, and is starting an addi
tion to make it a 40-room hotel. He
will be assisted by his daughter,
Bessie and Mrs. Wheeler, who has
lust returned from Los Angeles. Miss
Helen Anderson will again manage
the Bradshaw house. Jack Porter
will have his rooming house open
and N. P. Wiberj has a lease on the
Irwin Hotel at Nye Beach. Smith &
Saunders are remodeling the Nye
Creek Hotel, and building veranda
all around. '
Down South Bench.
Lee Doty runs the stage line to
Alsea, Beaver Creek, Waldport, Lut
Jens and Yahats. He has fine four,
horse teams, takes you across the bay
at 6:30 a. m. to Waldport by noon.
Collector of Customs O. V. Hurt has
a tent city at Ocean View, and is
prepared to care for people with
meals and beds at Yahats In good
comfortable style. Campers and tour
lsts who have been going to Yahats
will appreciate this. J. D. Satter
lee is building a new house at Beaver
creek.
Good Steamer Service.
Captain Jacobsen hag nad the
steamer Newport overhauled for the
summer season, and pit In thorough
repair, so that the vessel passed the
highest inspection, and Is ready to
handle the Bummer business. The
captain has built a beautiful bunga
low overlooking the bay Just above
McDonaldvllIe, on the point where
the Indian Anne Laroque- always
had her little tent and basketry. He
will have to provide for Annie when
she arrives, as she Is as much of a
summer fixture at Newport as the
captain himself. There are plenty of
launches and pleasure boats at the
bay. Under the vigilance of Game
Warden Gatens the fishing In the bay
has been restored and crabs are
more plentiful. Clams are no long
er allowed to be shot on the wing,
but must be potted on the run when
they first Btart to rise. Simon Llnd
sten has a fine new electric launch,
and conducts the ferry at South
Beach.
New Auditorium.
Fred Mang and O. S. Purdy have
bought the old Nye Beach bath house
and are constructing a $25,000 beach
auditorium with a hot plunge swim
ming tank 35x75 feet, and supplied
with salt water from the ocean, arti
ficially heated. They will have a large
glass front looking out on the ocean,
and 200 bath rooms for surf bathing.
The sun parlor will be 30x50. The
whole structure is 50x150, and Is up-to-date,
such as are found at all Cal
ifornia summer resorts.

Unexpected
Guests
The farmer and his wife were about to sit down to a
cold supper when they saw some old friends driving
towards the house.
The good wife was equal to the occasion thanks to
her New Perfection Oil Cook-stove.
She had it lit in a moment, and her guests hardly were seated
on the porch before a hearty hot meal was ready lor the table
sausages and eggs and long rashers of streaky bacon, and rolls just
crisped in the oven and fresh coffee and the hostess herself as cool
and neat as if she had not been near the kitchen.
She never could have managed it with an old-fashioned range.
The New Perfection is the quickest, most convenient and best cooker
on the market.

only a quack by the regulars. Is pet

among the sick. He has even made

lee boy, who can now get about on a
tricycle.
One of the attractions of the city
is Mr. Rubarts and his blue Andalu
sian rooster, "Bobby," who was
called 'Dick'' until an accident befell
him, as a result of which he nearly
went up In a very badly smelling
smoke. The old veteran, who baches
down on the dock, although quite a
ladles man, is an inveterate smoker,
and one day threw a lighted match
on the floor. Dick jumped down to
see what it was, and in leaving it
swept the train of his Sunday-go-to-meeting
trail around, and It caught
fire and the Newport fire department
had to respond on a quick run to
keep Dick from roasting in his own
decorations. His beautiful tall was
gone, and the princely Spanish game
bird has appeared In a decollete bob
tall street suit ever since. But he Is
a great pet, and adds to the gaiety of
nations at Newport.
The Oregonian was kind enoug to
print the following , from my pen
about the pioneers who have made
this place a popular modern resort:
Yaquina Bay rioneers.
The Yaquina Bay country was al
ways the scene of early pioneer enter
prise. An Indomitable class was at
tracted to this beautiful bay, where
fishing, game, shellfish of all kinds,
abounded and the pleasures of the
chase, abundance of food, and the at
tractions of the clean, beautiful
beaches united to draw men of a ro
mantic and adventurous turn of
mind to this part of the coast. The
early history of boatbuilding, con
struction of wagon roads, construc
tion of a railroad over the mountains,
the dreams of making this a great
shipping port, and the struggle to de
velop agriculture and fruit growing
are all part of a romance of the West
as interesting as the conquest of
Peru. The first actors in this drama
are gone, but their memory lingers
la the minds of many still here. As
a frequenter of Yaquina Bay for
nearly a quarter of a century I can
recall many of the men now gone
who struck the first blows for open
ing the pathway to the Pacific, which
is now enjoyed by hundreds every
week, with palatial tralne, modern
hotels and all the conveniences of
civilization.
The three oldest settlers, In time
of taking up claims, now living here
on the bay are Josiah S. Copeland,
on Depot slough; Royal Bensell, of
Newport, and Wm. Mackey, of Tole
do. Ellas and John Wiser took up
the claims where Newport now
stands in 1866, but both are dead.
Another, who Is dead, was G-eorge L.
Boone, after whom Boone's Point Is
named, and who was related to Dan
iel Boone of Kentucky fame. The
Yaquina Bay settler was with Kit
Carson, Pegleg Smith, Jim Betck
wlth and Buckskin Bob, now resid
ing on Tsiltcoos Lake. Linn county,
with the Doniphan expedition to
Texas. George King Is stll Hiving at
Oysterville. His brother, John, came
later, and was one of the first men to
plant orchards at Medford, where his
descendants still live. Captain Sol
Dodge took up the claim at Oyster
ville, and lost his life in the wreck
of the schooner Champion on Shoal
water bay. Other Oysterville pion
eers were Newton Poole, after whom
Poole's slough Is named; H. C. Newt,
Wm. Caffrey, Dimmle Wlnant, a
brother of James J. Wlnant, who
lost his life In 'a wreck, and James
Brown, better known as "Whispering
Brown.'' Israel Eddy, afer whom
Eddyville is named, died a few
months since. Other pioneers of Ya
quina were J. N. Stark, Thos. Rus
sell, Wm. Beck, Parker drifted in
from Walla Walla and turned loose
the first pair of canary birds. By the
same token these pioneers could
swear that Col. Parker drew the
long bow on the; matter of there be
ing an abundance of shad In the
Yaquina, as the first shad has prob
ably to go up that river.
Among the pioneers who have an
swered the long roll and are toiling
westward' up the slopes of another,
and, we hope, more beautiful world,
are Sam Casae, John Loomls, Fred
Olsson, Dr. Bayley, Billy Neal, John
George whose lonely cabin still
stands on the shore of the bay just
above the point where the treasure Is
supposed to have been sunken with
the Spanish ship; Martin Berrj',
John P. Priest, once collector of cus
toms; John Ford. James Chatterton,
Ed. Phelps, Jas. W. Ball, the Demo
cratic war horse; John St'mpson,
Butch Hammond and Jas. Oragie.
The latter was a Hudson Bay factor,
and was with MeLoughlin, and be
came the father of Mrs. Sam Case,
an honored pioneer woman, still liv
ing. Among the living pioneers are vet
erans like Chas. H. Williams, who
has bought enough gold dust mined
on the beaches to start several
banks; Tom Boyle, Dr. Carter, Pete
Abbey, Johnnie Miller, George Ford,
Charles Wlnant, Sam Irvine, John
Buckley, John Nye, after whom Nye
Beach Is named; Amos H. Hampton,
L. E.' Davis, sole sun-Ivor of South
Beach; M. M. Davis, Jack Cahill, Geo.
F. Silvester and Charles Maley.
There are many others who should be
mentioned, and if I had longer time I
would gladly have extended this list.
But all these 'men bore honorable
part in the opening of this country
to the world for enjoyment and profit
I must mention James Chambers,
who came to Klngg valley in 184 8,
and thence to the Slletz in 18828,
whrtre he died. He served 'n the leg
islature, as has his son. No mention
of the bay country would be complete
without a mention of the cape men.
They were George Meggescjn. John
Brlgg and Captain Wm. Dyre, a
New England man of seafaring hab
its, who scorned to acquire land. The
other two acquired nearly all the
lands on thej cape where the light
house now stands, and all three are
buried on the cape. Mrs. Meggeson,
an Indian woman of great character,
and still of nobie appearance, resides
in Newport and has grandchildren of
great promise. E. HOFER.
ROUTINE
BUSINESS
OF COUNCIL
Feeling convinced that the dray
and truck, ordinance as Indorsed by
the ordinance committee would be
put In jeopardy because of its radical
features, ,the committee last evening
withdrew' it from the consideration of
the council, and It will be presented
at the next meeting after It has been
amended so as to insure Its passage.
It became apparent that a fight
would be made on this ordinance
when the committee brought in a
majority ana minority report Coun
cilman White brought in the minor
ity report and in it stated that the
ordinance was radical and that were
It passed It would put most of the
smaller draymen out of business and
create a monopoly of the business In
the city.
He moved to have the report in
definitely postponed. The mayor In
his autocratic way rerused to recog
nize any such motion and asked that
some other disposition be made of
It. Finally some one conceived the
Idea of making a motion laying the
report on the table and the mayor
was forced to put It and there It
lays. When the ordinance came up
for a third reading the ordinance
committee rather than risk putting it
to a vote, withdrew it for amend
ment. Other Ttoutlne Business.
The committee on streets made a
favorable report on the extension of
Richmond avenue.
The street committee reported that
Contractor Geiger would not allow
any reductions to be made in the
contract price for the East Court
street Improvement, and the contract
was awarded to him without reduc-
tlons. The committee desired to re
duce the price $500 but the contrac
tor stated that he would no do the
work in the event that such a reduc
tion was made.
The city engineer recommended
that , condemnation proceedings be
commenced for the purpose of widen
ing Front street
A remonstrance against the pave-
i ment of Center street from Liberty
to Fourteenth was read and referred
to the street committee.
A resolution directing that a ce
ment sidewalk be built in., front of
the J. F. Savage property on State
street was adopted..
A resolution ordering the construc
tion of a nlank sidelak on Chemeketa
street was passed.
Thre petitions one asking for the
extension ' of Laurel avenue from
Highland to Winter a second asking
for the extension of South street
from Sixth to the Fairground road
and the third asking for the vacation
of Roosevelt avenue where it runs
along the property owned by the
Boise heirs were granted.
R. S. Haskel, and five other prop
erty owners residing In his district,
asked that the Salem Water com
pany be compelled to extend its wa
ter mains into their district and the
petition was referred to the commit
tee on streets and the city attorney.
The fine of $10 Imposed upon the
representative of the Bancroft-Whitney
company, of San Francisco, for
violating the peddlers ordinance, was
ordered remitted to the company.
The same action was taken with re
lation to two other cases of a similar
nature. The action was taken upon
the recommendation of the city attor
ney who stated that the ordinance
did not cover cases of that character.
An ordinance having for its object
the granting of a franchise to the
Portland Railway Light and Power
company on Nebraska street and
Belmont avenue and the vacation of
its track on Seventeenth street was
read the second time and referred to
the ordinance committee.
