unworthy beggars. by absolutely refusing

longer.

ASorHER Manager R. Koehler,
of the S. P. r. r., passed through Rose
burg last Thursday and while here stated
TO one of our citizens that the railroad
company had no idea OF extending the Eu-
gene express any further south than that
city, but that they were seriously consid-
ering the matter of placing another train
on the road to run the entire distance be-

IF DIR. Wallace,aged four and a half,caught
nim by the hand and cried for his six year
old brother to come and help. The two
