OPERA HOUSE.
Among the old settlers and prominent bust
ness men Of Roseburg Is Clay Siocum, who is
at present our efficient deputy Sheriff, and has
at various times held office Of honor and trust
in the County, and as an enterprising citizen,
the Opera House, or Slocum's Hall, as il is
more familiarly called, is standing monument
to his energy being one Of the finest and best
| equipped in Southern Oregon.
MRS. HoTcHKIss.
Mrs. Hotchkiss has been identified with the
millinery trade Of Roscburg for several years,
and her stock displays choice variety Of silks,
velvets, trinmings, ribbons, feathers, flowers,
| tips, plumes, ETC., too numerous to mention,
also straw and felt hats, bonncts and hat frames,
ornaments ETC., until We are led 10 wonder
how the ladies can make use Of so..many pretty

ness and knows just how to get the right twist
to ribbon, the right bend In the hat, and the
| plu:ne or ornament in Just the right place to

II. PARRY.
II is well known that previous to the
Mohammedan invasion Of India it was univer-
sally held sacrilege Of the people to wear a
garment made from seperate pieces of cloth
sewed together. Each garment was made
from single peice. The first instance of
dress OF any kind being worn was made from
the scanty leaves of fig tree, which Eve
made for herself when she essaycd to wear
clothes in the Garden Of Eden, but it was no
doubt very becoming to her, as were Adams
first pants to him. From that time to this,
gradual but vast Improvements have been
made, until now seeming perfection Of mems
clothes has been reached at the merchant
tailoring establishment OIL. Parry, Roseburg.
He is located on Jackson street next door to
A. G.. Marks's Cigar store. IL you want
nice suit that will fit you call and select from
his handsome piece goods, and have him
take your measure, and cut, fit and make il
for you.
MooRH'S RESTAURANT.
1t matter Of more importance to town
than most people imagine that the restaurant
and other eating houses should be good and
well conducted. Man is seldom in a good
humor unless he is properly fed, and when
farmer comes to town to trade, and gets
good meal or lunch for reasonable price,
he, in good humor with the town and feel
like doing business. The stranger, too, in
coming into community in seeking location
is likely to be pleased or displeased in accord
ance with the way he is fed. This restaurant
has been established long enough to demon
stratc that it is a permanent and successful
affair. Moorc's Restaurant is located in the
business part OF the city where it is convcn-
lent togive it call.
CIiAS HADLEY.
This gentleman is TO "ittle shaver" now,
but he is shaver all the same and has been,
we suppose, ever since he was little one.
At any rate it has been Sc veral years since he
commenced in Roseburg treating Tho people
rba civ q n Iva
then and his great experience since has, fpos-
sibe, been adding to his aptness. SO that it is
no use for any professor or practitioner Of the
tonsorial scissors and art to try to excel him.
He makes speciality Of hair dressing and is
an expert in this branch of the business. Chas.
Hadlcy's shop is on Jackson street almost op-
posite the express Office. Give him a call and
you will get your moneys worth.

MRS. COMPTON.

whose name is above mentioned is one of the
leading and most fashionable in the city. Her
work is always neat and in style and il any
thing is calculated to enhance the beauty Of

| CLARKE & BAKER,
| A writing up Of business men and business
interests of Douglas county would seem incom
plete in the absence of notice Of the wide
awake and active citizens whose firm name
heads this article, even though their principal
business is that Of running a sawmill. They
may correctly be classed among the leading
spirits of any enterprise Of public nature
They established their mill in this county in
1879 and have since been constantly and sue
cessfully engaged in the lumber and sawmil
business. OF Mr.. Clarke. personally, we can
say that he IS an "Ohio man," yet withal gen.
ial and wholesouled. AS a firm Messrs
Clarke and Baker are popular and in the lead

MRS. HOOVER.
In no branch Of human industry, perhaps is
there more inviting field for the display OF
cultivated taste, and artistic design than in
the making and trimming OF hats and bonnets
Of the ladies of the present day. The con-
trast between the coarse top-knot worn by the
dusky maiden who chased the butterfly over
sunny slopes forty years ago and the beauti-
full bonnet made by Mrs. Hoover for the
Roseburg bellies of to-day, marks as clearly as
anything can the wonderful progress of the
age. Millinery has risen to the position oI
one Of the fine arts, and only lady of cult
waited taste as well as skillful hand can make
success in following it as "a business The
ladies Of Roseburg are fortunate enough tc
, have in the millinery establishment Of Mrs
Hoover one which can supply their demand
/ in this line and make them appear as well a.
, the ladies Of any other town. Her shop is on
the Main street.
