Another Pioneer Gone.

Samuel Rich, an old Pioneer of the
Umpqua valley, has crossed the shining
river and is at rest. We regret that at
the present time we are unable to give
the particulars of life which was al
ways devoted to his country and his
friends. The date Of his arrival In
Umpqua valley we are not able to
state, but it was about 1850. He was
the first sheriff after the county was or
ganized, and we believe that he held
nearly every office in the county until
it was annexed to Douglas county,
when be held every office he would ac-
cspt. An ardent Union man during
the war, his dearest friends were those
wto differed with him en- that subject.
A friend of the people, true Demo
crat, we cali say Of him
None knew him but to love him,
None named him but to praise.
Peace to his ashes.

Notes Of Travel.

ED. IsoEPENDENT: I hear that
"Tom," the dashing driver Of the r.
L G. B. stage, is transferred to the 9TH
er end of the route. This is quite q
disappointment to those who have trav-
eled with him from Reseburg to Laird's
and observed his uniformly obliging
ways, end remarked his invincible de-
termination to "get there on time" If
it cost a leg. ! hope Toms place may
be filled by an equally daring and skill
full " whip" who won't hesitate to carry
all who want to go, even if they have
to be slowed in the boot, or hung on
by their eyelids. Tom, / am told, goes
to take the place Of Brown, who Is
"bounced for the tritiing ofense of
getting drunk, upsetting his stage, ours
ing his passengers and terrifying blg'
| fat drummer almost out of his senses
because the b. {. d. g weight was objec-
tionable to the fine senslbilities Of the
aesthetic coachee. GA most sarcastic
man, is this quiet Mr.. Brown, and on
several occasions he has cleaned out the
town."
It is rather remarkable that in re-
gion so well provided with the finest
fish and game as is Coos county, thai
no che by any accident ever sees either
game or fish on any table. Elk, deer
grouse, pheasants, ETC., roam the woods
salmon, salmon trout and brook trou1
abound in the numberless streams
but who ever saw anything to eat, save
tough beef, bacon, cabbage and slap
Jacks, on the tables, public or private
of Coos9 This popularity is excusable
however, in a country where it is con
sidered the correct thing to have pi
three times day. SAN JUAN.
