THE COOS BAY
RAILROAD

Marshdeld, Or, July G.-There was
filed in the office of the county clerk
at CoQuille yesterday a deed of con-
yeyance of the Coos Bay, Oregon &
Idaho railroad to the Coos Bay &
Oregon Central railroad. The con-
sideration named was 81 and the deed
conveys the rights-of-way and other
property and holdings of the first
named company.
The conveyance is made by Fran
els II. Clarke, acting as attorney in
fact, and with the deed was filed a
power of attorney from the railroad
company to Clarke.
The Coos-Bay, Oregon & Idaho
Railroad is the one which has been
promoted by Clarke during the past
year. Surveys for rights of wav
were made from this city to Rose
burg While there is nothing to in
dicate the intent of the transfer. it is
assumed that the Coos Bay & Oregon
Central is a new holding company
and that the transfer is a preliminary
step toward the naturalization of the
road. Wv

A DISASTROUS
MORNING FIRE
AT SHERWOOD

Sherwood, Or, July 6.--Guests fed
from their rooms in the Sherwood
hotel in scanty apparel when they
were awakened to find the building
threatened by a fire that broke out
at 3 o'clock yesterday morning, swept
away a livery stable, a barber shop
and two saloons, and was only pre-
vented from burning the whole bust
ness section of Sherwood by the
strenuous labors of the citizens and
that fact that there was little wind.
The fire broke out in Meltzer's liv-
cry stable When it was discovered
by NJ. and C. Meltzer and A. Hager,
who were sleeping in the barn, they
had barely time to loose the horses
and run for their lives. All the
horses escaped except valuable
driving animal belonging to Robert
Colfelt.
From the stable the fire spread
rapidly to A, Zinns saloon, the barber
shop Of Jack Weston, and Folfelt' sa-
loon, next to the hotel Here the
citizens, who, though handicapped by
lack Of water, did yeoman service
with a volunteer fire-fghting brigade
made a stand to save the hostelry and
succeeded in holding the flames in
check
The fire is supposed to have start
ed through the carelessness of some

Grizzlies are said to have been seen
frequently in the Blue Mountains.
Mr.. Hickson says that owing to the
forest fires Of last year, the berries
and small animals upon which the
bears feed are scarce, and this has
driven them to make lnroads on the
stock Although he is an old hunt
er, he is leaving mis- camp to save the
remainder of his animals.

HIGHWAY COMMISSION PREPARING
FOR 1912 WORK.
Wishes to Make Early Start on State Aid
Road and Bridge Construction
Next Spring.

With returns in from all county
clerks, it is assumed that there will be
constructed next year under the new
state aid law, about 81, 200, 90 worth of
permanent roads and bridges. This
work will be done in 65 of the II coun-
ties in the state, only six counties hav-
ing failed to make any provisions for
state aid work.
The State Highway. Commission has
decided to make surveys and plans for
all road and bridge work done under
the new law, free of cost to the towns
or counties if the forces at it's command
will allow doing so.
The Commission realizes the immens-
ity of the task confronting it and in
order that there may be as little delay
as possible in starting construction
next spring, it wishes to make as many
road surveys and bridge inspections this
fall as can be arranged for.
Those towns and counties which have
decided where their state aid roads or
bridges are to be built in 1912 should
apply Immediately to the Highway Com
mission for their surveys. In this
event plans can be completed during
the winter and contracts or other ar
engagements made so that work may be
started as soon as spring opens up.
Blank applications for road surveys OF
bridge inspection may be obtained by
writing the Wisconsin Highway Com,
mission at Madison.
