Runaway Monday.

a runaway occurred in the city
Monday forenoon which resulted in
damage of about 500 worth of
furniture which mad just arrived
from the east, belonging to C. T.. Sell
leck. Mr.. Selleck had load of
household goods on wagon and
climbing on top started for his home
at Murphy, The team started from
the depot in trot and gradually de-
veloped into swifter gait; when
they reached Front street they were
gong at a pretty rapid rate. They
ran down Front street to 10th and
u and in turning the corner the
wagon was upset, spilling the furni-
ture into the road and uncoupling
the wagon. The horses then con-
tinued their race down | street with
the front wheels, colliding with a
wagon driven by Dick Lindley and
smashing things up generally. After
running down the full length of I
street they became entangled in the
brush in the west part of town and
ended their racing. Mr. Selleck was
not injured and the horses also es-
capped unhurt, but some of the furni-
ture was badly damaged and two
wagons were pretty well used up.

VALLEY TOWNS ON LIST
Post Office Authorities Step in and
Stop the Game and Arrest the
Bold Operator.

The newspapers of the Northwest
are filled with the doings of Sc
attle firm of so-called bankers and
brokers" who operated through real
estate agents throughout the coun-
try. The whole thing was bare
faced swindle as far as the so-called
bankers and brokers were concerned,
but fortunately it was looked up by
the post office authorities and the
operator -bagged before he had Sc
cured more than a few thousand do
lars. This banker and broker"
sent out type written circulars offer
ing to make loans on real estate Sc
curity at 5 per cent, The applica-
tions for loan must be accompanied
BY an abstract and one-half the fee
for examing title. This fee was So
on every 800; for instance say the
loan was for $1,000, the fee would be
$40 and one-half of this must be
forwarded with the papers, the bal
ance was to go to the agent for do
ing the business. The swindle was
in taking the advance fee and max
ing no return.
II is claimed the swindler secured
several thousand dollars in the
states OF Oregon and Washington.
As soon as the post office authorities
suspected the scheme his mail was
retained In the Seattle post office
and by this means the victims were
aved in the aggregate many thous-
ands OF dollars. The manager of
the bankers and brokers'" estab-
f1shment in Seattle turned out to be
one w. w. Smith, who when wanted
suddenly left Seattle. He was traced
10 Vancouver, where he had dis
guised himself by shaving off flow
hg beard and croppig close his hair
which he had been wearing rather
long. When arrested he had on him
in belt worn about his body,
$4,000, this was taken charge Of by
the special agent, L. r. Church, of
the Postal department who made
the arrest. Church says that he be-
lieves that Smith secured many
thousands of dollars. The bankers
and brokers" worked altogether
through established real estate
agents in many towns of the country.
In Grants Pass he did business
through these agents: J. e. Peter
son, H. B. Hendricks & Son and w.
r. Nipper. Mr.. Peterson sent the
swindler S22.50 Hendricks & Son,
$500, and Nipper sent no money but
did send a $4,000 mortgage and an
abstract, neither of which have
been heard of since Other towns

WISDOM IN COURSE PURSUED
BY PROPERTY OWNERS
MACADAM IS SHORT LIVED
Sixth Street Should BE Paved to the
Bridge With Bitulithic
Pavement.

The change of sentiment regarding
the kind of paving which should be
put down on the more important
streets of this city is rather remark
able. Only three or four weeks ago
1t was, most people wanted macadam
A campaign of education was started
by j. D, Fry, ably supported by
others, and as soon as careful ex-
animation had been made of paving
done in other cities and the opinion
of unbiased property holders in these
places had been secured, macadam
was discarded and bitulithic took its
place. Macadam was found to be of
short life, at least it had to be re-
paired often and never, even at its
best, made a good looking street.
Practical men wanted a pavement
that would make good looking
street, last many years and possess
qualities superior to all other pave
ments. Investigation proved that
this was bitulithic and the argument
naturally followed that the best was
the cheapest; which maxim applies
to most material things in life.
In the history of most places, as
we'll as in the life of individuals,
there comes time when conditions
demand prompt action and If per-
chance the wrong Is chosen 1t is a
serious and often a lasting Injury,
This applied with force in Grants
Pass when the question of paving
came. Fortunately the property
holders on five blocks on Sixth street
and three blocks on Front street de-
cided to put down bitulithic. This
wise course marks the determination
of the property owners to make
Grants Pass for all time to come a
city of Importance. II proves that
these men have faith in the future
and have resolved to prove their
confidence in the city by their money
All this is preliminary to word
to the balance of the property own
ers on Sixth street, and this is what
we desire to say
As is we'll known, Sixth street Is
the one street in the city which has
more traffic than half dozen or more
Of the other streets. Hundreds Of
loads Of lumber, for months at a
time, pass over this thoroughfare
every day. Heavy loads Of farm pro-
duce are in evidence all the year
round and. therefore, It is necessary
to put down a pavement which Will
stand the rough work Such q pave
ment will add value to the property
and be a credit to the city lnvesti-
cation goes TO prove that bitulIthic
Is the best for all purposes and is
therefore the cheapest In the long
run. BY all means extend this Kind
of pavement 10 the steel bridge

MRS. DEAN INJURED IN
RUNAWAY ACCIDENT

! Mrs. W. E. Dean, of this city, ant
Mr., and Mrs. Tom Harvey, formerl,
of this place but now of Marshfield
on last Friday were participants ir
frightful runaway down a steer
grade on the Coos Bay-Rosebura
stage road, which resulted in the
painful, although not necessarily
serious, injury of Mrs. Dean. Mrs
Dean had been spending the summer
with her daughter, Mrs. Harvey, and
they were all starting for Grants
Pass, expecting to reach here Satur.
day. The stage was drawn by four
horses and was greatly overloaded
carrying II passengers besides the
driver and the mail, and in order to
make anything like schedule time the
driver had to make up time on the
down grades. At a point about 20
miles from Roseburg, at what is
known as the Mountain house, is a
particularly steep and dangerous
point. The driver, VIM. Mclean,
says the brake was defective and he
was unable to keep the heavily load
ed stage from humping into the
wheel horses and he was OBLIGED to
give them the lash to keep them
ahead of the vehicle. The horses he
gan kicking and running and the
driver saw that they could not safe
ly make certain turn. He called
to the passengers to jump. Mr. Har-
vey picked up his wife and threw
Ter out of the stage, intending TO do
the same with Mrs. Dean, but a urch
of the coach threw him out and he
narrowly escaped being run over. A
few moments afterward the stage
was overturned at the curve and
Mrs, Dean was thrown out and when
picked up was unconscious. A hasty
examination showed that no bones
were broken but she was severely
bruised all over her face and body.
The accident occurred about 7:15
and physicians were sent out from
Roseburg, arriving at the scene at
about midnight. The patients were
made as comfortable as possible un-
til morning when they were taken
to Roseburg by automobiles provided
by the stage company.
Few of the passengers escaped un-
hurt, one of them had a leg broken
in two places. A Mr.. Wick, aged rs
years, was badly bruised and was
unconscious for some time. Mr.. and
Mrs. Harvey however, escaped with
minor bruises.
Mr.. Dean was notified by tele-
phone and he Immediately left for
noseburg, reaching there half
hour before the arrival of the in
iured members of the party Mrs.
Dean was taken TO the house Of
Henry Harth and remained there un-
