ming, to CLEAN what points were attainahle
relative to the building. Mr.. Ryan said he
really had but little definite information
to give, as his chief attention had been
given to securing the site, and the plans
OF the building were yet to be determined.
In fact, the site itself had a good deal to
do with the plans of the building, and
hence there could be nothing but the most
general matters considered until the loca-
ton had been selected. The architect
whom he had employed, Mr.. Eagan,
OF Chicago, was now here looking
over the ground preparatory to making
the plans and as soon as they were decided
upon he should have no objections to
giving them to the public through the
columns of the GLOBE.
In response to numerous inquiries some
general points were glea ned which are of
interest at this time, though changes and
notifications are more than probable to
occur. Ground will be. broken within ten
days and the work will be prosecuted as
vigorously.as possible to completion. The
main Or gentleman's entrance would prob
ably be on Seventh street and the ladies'
entrance on Robert. The building would
contain a number of stores, perhaps
fifteen or eighteen. As to whether
the building will cover the entire
ground he could not definitely say, but it
would probably have at least IT'S feet
frontage on Seventh street and still greater
on Sixth. Of course, if he should purchase
the corner of Sixth and Jackson from Mr..
Hale, as was possible, the building would
extend on Sixth street from Robert to
Jackson, and that would involve changes
in other portions, in the entrances, ETC., all
of which showed that no definite outline
could now be given. The building will be
of both brick and stone, but the kind of
stone had not been determined upon.
1t would certainly be six stories
above the basement and might be seven.
In this talk Mr.. Ryan expressly dis
claimed having anything taken for granted
as decided upon, though there were, of
course, certain general lines which could
be thought of at the outset, and as the
plans we're perfected they might or might
not be worked in. He disclaimed having
any partner in the enterprise, but ex-
pected to erect the building as an indi-
vidual venture.
ARCHITECT RAGAN.
A representative of the GLOBE last even
ing called upon Mr.. Eagan at the Mer-
chants, the we'll known architect of Chi
cago who is to furnish the plans for the
building, for the purpose of getting from
him, if possible, some general idea of the
character of the structure. The repre-
sentative was received very courte-
ously by Mr.. Egan but he de-
clared it Impossible to furnish any details.
His visit at this time, he said, was merely
one of observation. to examine the loca-
ton, note the surroundings, etc., and get a
general idea of what would be most appro-
pirate in style, to work out as soen as he
should get back to Chicago, which would
be on Monday next.

There are many various reasons why the
present effort to organize branch of the
Young Mems Christian Association should
succeed.
First, because of the advantages which ac-
erue to young men from associating together.
There is wisdom In multitude of counsel,
doubly so when we remember that Jesus is
our great counselor.
In the second place there has been great
breaking down of the middle wall of parti-
ton between the Orthodox Evangelical
Christian Churches throughout the world
during the last few years and all are losing
sight Of everything which can in the remotest
degree hinder the coming of our Lord Jesus
Christ into the hearts of the people.
Thirdly, the Gospel must needs receive
that united action and unity of effort found
in the sum of aggregate christian work,
where all branches of the true vine are graft
ed in Christ eur Savior.
This last is the more necessary because OF
the opposition which Satan and his host ar
ray against us. But the strongest argument
which can be adduced in affirmation of this
proposition to organize Y. NJ. G. A. IL
Roseburg is, that nowhere else in church
work do we find that oneness in Jesus
Christ's children so essential to the building
up and spread Of Redeemers Kingdom among
men.
God grant that we may act wisely and
plant a seed here which viii grow into
mighty social and religious tree, shelterins
| beneath its refreshing shade, every weary
sin-sick soul in Douglas County.

4 Short Stay at the 3. &. FROM.

On Tuesday, July 18th, the pay
wagons proceeded from the town of
Julia. Tunnel No. s is the first place
where the r. R. hands thronged around
the coin box for their wages.
Vim. Mangan, one of the most efic-
lent of tunnel men, has full control Of
the work on this tunnel He thinks
the work will be completed sometime
IN August next. At the south end Of
this tunnel is located large camp.
Here the headquarters Of general time
keeper, e. G. Kane, is located. Mr..
K. has held many responsible positions
for the Company, and has filled them
well. His present position is one of
great Importance to the r. r. Co, and
he IS fully competent in every partieu-
lar for the arduous duties now devoly-
ing upon him. His corps of sub-time
keepers is well selected and every part
Of the work is fully reported on the
payroll by them.
Tunnel No is now ready for the
track and the greater portion of the
grade is finished between the two tun-
nels South of this tunnel are several
camps, but the largest is campo. Here
you find one dozen saloons and several
stores. Baker Bros, of Oakland, have
a nice stock Of goods here and are doing
a thriving business. Hon. G. W. Rid
die IS also doing well in the merchan-S
disc business. Messrs. Cox and Yo-
cum have the boss saloon and keep ev-
erything for quenehing thirst.

Stage Robber Captured.

On last Tuesday night as the South bound
stage was approaching the summit of Grave
Greek hill, about one mile south of Henry
Smiths, in Josephine county, it was stopped
BY aa armed man who was masked. He re-
lieved the driver of the express box and mail
sacks and the passengers of their valuables
The express box contained eighteen hundred
and ten dollars, which belonged to the R. r.
Co., and was going south to Mr. Hubert to
pay off his surveying party. The amount of
treasure taken from the mail and passengers
we are unable to learn. Wednesday evening
Mr.. Fuller, the express agent, and Mr.. F. 2.
Hogan went out on the south bound train to
investigate the robbery. They arrived at
Glendale late at night and commenced their
Investigations Mr.. Hogan soon learned
that man by the name of Todd who was
suspected of the robbery, had bought horse
from Mr.. Anderson who lives this side of
Glendale and was travelling north on the line
of the railroad. Mr.. Hogan took the train
and came back as far as Lewisville. After
travelling around in the dark he found the
track and followed him to Watson Mynatts,
some three miles south of Riddles, where he
arrived about five o'clock in the morning.
Learning that his manwas in bed he waited
until he got up and went to wash. When
the man placed his hands in the basin he
drew his revolver and ordered him to throw
up his hands; having lsyed his weapons aside
the robber had no choise, but obeyed Mr..
Hogan then made him set down while young
Mr.. Mynatt tied him. He found en- his
person the $3.50, less $40, which had been
paid for the horse. He then brought
the prisoner to Riddle and from there on the
freight train to Rsseburg, arriving here about
3 o'clock in the afternoon, where he was
locked up in Jail. He is strong, sinewy
built man, lem Of flesh, about six feet in
height, weight about It's pounds, dark red
hair with red sandy whiskers and moustache,
with large whiteish blue eyes, There was
nothing found with him to indicate that he
had got any valuabIes from the mail or pass
engers. The reward for this capture will
amount to over one thousand dollars, which
is pretty good days work for MIR. Hogan.
Mr.. Hogan took his prisoner to Portland
this morning to turn him over to the United
States authorities
