TWO DONKEYS ARRIVE;
TEN CARS RAILS

Two more large donkey en-
gines arrived the first of the
week for use of the Warrek
Spruce Co. These engines are
OF the large type, burn four foot
wood, and are capable of handl-
ing most any size log. Some of
the spruce trees around here
measure from six to twelve feet
in diameter, so it takes a pretty
good engine to handle them.
A special train consisting of
an engine and ten cars of new
rails passed through to Yaquina
Tuesday afternoon, This train
VIII remain at Yaquina for a
couple of months, the engine
being used for switching and in
railroad construction.
A large spur about sixteen
hundred feet in length Is to be
built at Yaquina for the handl.
Ing Of jetty rock, and there is
some talk of a railroad up the
coast from Yaquina to tap the
Otter Rock spruce. This latter
road Is not certain however, as
they are now within two OF
three miles of this spruce tract
with the Vessel railroad.
