ceived large invoice of mems clothing
this week. Everybody can afford to
dress well, judging from the prices they
are selling clothing at.
People residing outside of the Toledo
school district who want to send their
children to the exceptionally good
school this winter, can do so by paying
the district 81 per month for each pupil.
Oliver Altree is industriously making
every effort to get his mill ready to saw
cedar lumber over on Drift Creek.
What he seems to lack now is more
water. He will probably have to enlarge
the ditch.
Newt Guilliams, Dye Wade and Dan
Hurley on the way to logging camp Sun
day, with an ox-team loaded with camp
supplies met with an accidental upset
near the Depoe bridge. Damage slight.
Syrup total loss.
There will be call for unpaid war
rants this week. This is to Feb. 9TH, 1896.
See notice elswhere. Mr.. Hyde would
make larger call this time but his cash
on hand will not quite reach a warrant
for $1,000, that will be next.
G. E. Hawkins and Wesley Davis re-
turned Monday from a fishing excursion
on Drift Creek. They caught 203 trout,
enough to make large wash tub half
full. The fish averaged foot in length.
See them for further details
Bill Bogue had some salmon he wanted
to ship Monday morning, but as the
company failed to give notice of the
change of time, Billy was too late. Can
it be possible that the company so negli-
gent in small matters will succeed in
large undertakings?
Clark Copeland took large load of
supplies to Henry Denlinger, Sr's. chit
tim ranch. Mr.. Denlinger has given it
out that he is going into the goat bust
ness. incidentally, only, that is true,
for we understand that the goats are to
strip the bark.
O. o, Krogstad has little girl named
Yaquina. They have about decided to
name the youngest one Appropriation.
The objection is only this, that every
body talks about the Yaquina appropri-
alton and our people might get their sub
jects and story mixed.
Charlie Crosno & Co. have large
stock of chittem bark, several car loads,
which they would like to sell to the
highest bidder, They have not gone
through the formality of stripping it,
but they guarantee it pure and up to
the commercial standard.
The attention of the Toledo road sup
ervisor is directed to the upper bridge
on Depoe. 1t is dangerous in some re-
spects. ga stitch in time saves nine"
besides the county can't afford to pay
damages for accidents that may happen
by reason of condition of bridges or roads.
James Doty, Joseph Gay, Al. Taylor,
Daniel Boone, William Lawnsdale,
Thomas Ferr and Rockey Two-Dollars
are fishing on the lower bay. Willard
Bogue and Hurvey Brown and Ralph
Sturdevant and AL. Meeking are casting
their nets on the upper waters.
Mr.. Alexander Mcdonald, who came
to the Bay this spring and is living
neighbor to Rite Dedrick will become a
permanent resident if Mrs. Mcdonald
recovers her lost health. They will go
to Newport for short time and try if
the extra salt air of that popular sum-
mer and fall resort will help the motherly
and elderly lady.
NJ. j. Thompson, who has been resid-
ing with his family in the Episcopal
parsonage, has completed his house on
his Ollala farm, and moved to his per-
manent home last Monday. Mr..
Thompson came from Minnesota, and,
having found health on Yaquina Bay,
says nothing would induce him to
return to that cold country.
As an instance of the changes and i'm
provements that time makes, it is noted
that % years ago last May, where Thos.
Fish's store now stands was footlog
and over that children passed toward
the old school house that then stood
where now is railroad cut. In front
is the city wharf. In those days there
was no townsite, no streets. Everybody
came and went by boat.

Wadsworth, accompanied by his cousins,
