PACIFIC IC-INIERIOR TO BUILD RAILROAD
TO WILDERViLLE BY FOURTH OF JULY
Engineers State That With Sale of Bonds on
February 10TH Work on the New Line
Can be Rapidly Prosecuted

first five miles can be graded and
ready for the laying of the ties and
the steel.
Council Authorizes Payment.
At the council meeting Friday
night the contracts, etc, through
which the directors of the Pacifc-ln-
terror company turn the affairs of
the company over to the city were
presented They We're referred to the
recently appointed railroad commits
sion for examination, and authority
was given by the council for the
drawing of warrant of $1,000 to
make the payment due upon the
Draper purchase on February 1st.
The old council had authorized the
creating of a fund of $4,000 from
which to meet expenses till the bond
money was available, after which It
will be returned. Through these con-
tracts and resolutions the Paciiic-In-
terror board of directors transfers
to the city of Grants Pass all the
rights of which it had become pos
.sessed, and the city is to reimburse
the directors and the citizens for pay
ments already made on the Draper
purchase, etc. AS soon as the COM
mission examines the transfer con-
tracts, the council will approve the
action and assume the payments yet
to be made.
Bond Buyers Interested.
Bond buyers all over the country
are watching the issue offered here,
not less than eighteen different
houses having written to the city
auditor concerning them, and no fear
is expressed over the making of a
satisfactory sale. Under the terms
of the offer no bid under par will be
considered, and it is expected that
that will bring a fair premium over
par as all previous bond issues sold
by the city have. The sale will be
made on February 10th. AS soon as
the sale is made the officials intend
to press the construction of the road
that the excursion to Wilder
vile can be one of the features of
the celebration of the nations birth
day.

The jar was talk en into the kitchen of the home and the contents dumped onto the table. Gold coins, black and dis cOlOred from age, covered large newspaper aid on the table. They were washed and counted.
 The finding of the gold was re- lated by Attorney Walls in a re- port filed in the probate court.

HIS TERRIBLE EYES.
Senator Cass Couie Almost Paraiyze .
 Man With Look.

Giant heads, bodies and brains were Webster and Cass. All the strength of granite Was concentrat- cd in these two sons. To look upon them made the ordinary man feel small. Wonderful eyes they pos sesScd, and mcn have been known to shiver with dread when one or the other allowed his glance to fall upon them. Cass could look through stranger in d way to make his brain burn and his knees knock to- gcther One searching stare seemed to destroy all mentality and fill the victim with paralytic emotions.
 No man dared take liberties with Cass. In 1916 the proprietor of the National hotel in Washington was man who so closely resemblcd the great senator from Michigan that he was often mistaken for him. An old friend, returning from jour ney. entered the lobby and. seeing him leaning against the desk. slip ped up behind and hit him terrific whack on the shoulder. saying cheerily and simultaneously: 'Hel- To. old man! Here am back again. How are you?'' Senator Cass Straightened up his six feet three and. turning upon the assailant his terrible. bloodshot eyes. almost an- initiated him with a look. Not q word was spoken. That look was ample. The stranger was SO "rat- tied" that he could not even apolo- giSe. but slunk deiectedlv out of the hotel.
 Later in the day when congress WAS supposed to be in session the /! stranger returned to the hotel to shake hands with the proprietor and tell him all about the Cass in cident. Walking bravely up. he laid his hand down on his friends shoul- der and, without waiting for greet ing, surprised him with: 'fSee here, old fellow, you got me in a deuce of scrape this morning. Why. you know. l took old Cass for you. slap 1 ped him on the back, nearly taking off d shoulder. and the old fool look cd at me as if he wanted to commit murder. The darncd old lunatic. why doesn't he stay out of here? He knows"- Again the great sen- ator from Michigan strengthened up his six feet three. again he turned his b|oodshot eyes. again he looked. and again the victim fed. Two mis-
 takes of that kind in one day!
