FALLEN HEROES
ARE HONORED
GRAVES OF EIGHTY COMRADES
DECKED ANEW.
FiTTING EXERCISES MARK DAY
Prof. Ilrisfim Delivers Stirring Ad
dress in Honor of the Boys in Blue
Excclent Music a Feature of the
Services.
As if in hearty endorsement -of the
self-sacrifice and past achievements
of the old soldiers, both dead and
Jiving, Memorial day was one of
bright sunshine, heaven smiling
down u iion the living members of the
Grand Army of the Republic as they
decked the graves of their fallen
comrades, four score in number.
Since the last march, the number has
materially decreased, some of the
boys who walked steadily upright
last year being now numbered with
those whose graves received the lov
ing ministrations of those who re
main. The line of march in the morning
started from the Plaza and proceeded
to Ashland cemetery, where the rit
ual exercises of the G. a. R. were
conducted by Post Commander Mat
tingley. Mrs. Mattingley, president
of the W. R. C, read the W. R. C.
service. The ceremonies were im
pressive and brought many a lump
into the throat. Loving hands
dropped flowers and placed colors
upon the graves of the heroes, the
old soldiers. Relief Corps, national
guard and school children participat
ing in the services.
From the cemetery the line pro
ceeded slowly to the Chautauqua
building for the exercises of the day.
Here a large crowd was gathered,
about 1,000 people having come out
to hear the words of praise for the
country's defenders. Prof. Isaac's
well-trained chorus, of thirty voices
rendered several appropriate num
bers, "True to the Flag" being given
by the choir and "Suwanee River"
by six little girls and chorus. The
latter of these numbers was especial
ly enjoyed, the girls singing the stan
za and the choir and congregation
joining in heartily on the chorus. A
mixed quartet sang "Brave Heart,
Sleep On," with pleasing effect. Mrs.
Perozzi delighted the audience with
her reading and . Comrade Hicks
stirred the hearts of all with his rec
itation of Lincoln's Gettysburg
speech.
Prof. George A. Briscoe, as orator
of the day, spoke on the cost of
peace, giving convincing facts and
statistics to show the great advan
tage of the peace policy over the war
policy. The old soldiers and the.
large audience were charmed by 'the
patriotic, utterances of Prof. Briscoe,
who held them stea.lily from first to
last. Prof. Briscoe spoke of the
enormous sacrifice entailed in the
wars of the past, in other nations as
well as our own, pointing with pride
to the spirit that prompted the boys
of '61 to take up the cause of their
country, and praising the fortitude
of the women who stayed at home
waiting in anxiety for the news of
loved ones who often did not return.
The speaker touched many a respon
sive chord during his address, the
full text of which is printed upon an
other page. The exercises were fit
tingly closed with the singing of
"America" by the chorus and audi
ence, the thousand voices joining
heartily in the national song.
Beautiful in its simplicity and as
impressive as it was beautiful was
the marine service of the Relief
Corps, which was held directly after
the exercises in Chautauqua build
ing. With beautiful roses the ladies
of the Relief Corps honored the
memory of "those who go down at
sea," and as the flowers were borne
down Ashland creek the service was
completed in a tribute to the un
known dead.
The basket dinner in the G. A. R.
hall at noon was attended by 150,
who matched stories of the past and
indulged in reminiscences as if the
events of the '60s were only yester
day. The afternoon was given over
to decoration of the graves in Harga-
dine and Mountain View cemeteries,
the old soldiers going informally to
these places and paying their tribute
of love and respect to the dead.
Members of the G. A. R. and W.
R. C. are loud in expressions of grat
itude for the kindnesses and favors
bestowed by all who participated, the
Ashland band, Prof. Isaac and his
splendid chorus. Prof. Briscoe for
his stirring address, Mrs. Perozzi,
and all other citizens who lent their
efforts to make the celebration of tne
national day a success. The old sol
diers were well pleased with the ser
vices rendered, as were all those who
attended.

EXPEDITION' MAKES PROGRESS
Parker-Browne Purty Ascending Mt.
McKinley by IJoyd Route.
Fairbanks, Alaska. William R.
Taylor who was with Thomas Lloyd
when he climbed Mt. McKinley from
the Fairbanks side in the spring of
1910, is here from his claim at Kan
tisbna, with news that the Mt. Mc
Kinley expedition headed by Profes
sor Herschel Parker, of Columbia
University, and Belmore Brown of
Tacoma was making good progress
in the attempt to scale the great
Alaska peak.
Taylor said the Parker-Brown par
ty, consisting cf four men and two
dog teams, reached McKinley river
Anril 1K. and planned to follow the
Lloyd route up the mountain, via
Fuldrow glacier. Taylor believes
they have a good chance to succeed,
as there is little snow, and the ex
perience of -the Lloyd expedition
shows that this is the right time of
the year.
Professor Parker visited the Kan
tishna miners on a foraging expedi
tion, and said thta the members of
his party were in good health. He
said a straight diet of pemmiean was
tiresome, and he visited the miners
to obtain some provisions. He was
confident that he would reach the
top of the mountain.
It is probable that the party will
come out by way of Fairbanks and
take a steamer for the outside early
next month. The Parker-Browne
expedition left Seward early in Feb
ruary and spent much time working
around to the north side of the moun
tain. Have your garments cleaned and
pressed for the Rose Carnival.

AIRSHIP RUNS AMUCK
One Man Killed and Several Injured
in Seattle When Machine
Dashes Into Crowd.
Seattle, Wash. George Quimby, a
civil engineer, was killed and a score
of spectators injured Friday after
noon at the Meadows when Aviator
I Clifford Turpin, striving to avoid an
amateur photographer crossing, the
ftu-e .tifick. dashed full tilt into the
crowd 'before the grandstand.
The left aileron, or rudder wing,
of the aeroplane struck an Hron pipe
in front of the judges' stand at the
edge of the race track, Turpin hav
ing tilted the machine to escape cut
ting the foolhardy photographer in
two. In the twinkling of an eye the
i machine swung to the left, pivoting
i on the iron pile, and crashed full
j into the great crowd massed in front
1 of the grandstand,
j Quinby was standing near the
judges' stand, where the machine
' first struck. As the wrecked wing
j tore loose from the iron pipe the
whirling propeller struck him with
i such terrific force that he was hurled
; back some ten feet against the
j grandstand. Many saved their lives
the moment the machine struck by
throwing themselves flat on the
ground, escaping the moving planes.
With the sound of shivering tim
bers and snapping steel, the machine
brought up with a crash against the
front row of boxes in the grand
stand, falling directly into the
scrambling mass of humanity be
neath it.
BA Y IS RECORD ONE.
North Dakotan Puys $1 1,200 for Or
chard Without First Seeing It.
I &o impressed was Lir. t;. h. Kisnei
oi niayvnie, a. u., witn tne pam
phlets sent out disclosing the beau
ties and advantages of the Rogue
river valley that he secured 28 acres
of land in the Griffin creek district
from John A. Honey, for $11,200, or
$400 an acre, without leaving his
home town.
As far as known this is the first
time that a man has purchased a
ranch in this valley without at least
looking it over. The property is
planted to pears, peaches and alfalfa
and has a beautiful view of Mt. Pitt
in the valley. Rishel was unable to
leave Dakota at this time and when
he came into communication with
I Mr. Honey had previously been so
favorably impressed with what he
had heard and read of the valley that
he made the offer of $11,200 and it
was promptly accepted.
Minstrels Make Good.
J. M. Busby's Minstrels played to
a crowded tent last night. They
were by far the finest minstrel
troupe that ever visited our city un
der canvas. Anyone who likes min
strel shows could not help but be
pleased at their singing and danc
ing, which was greeted with round
after round of applause. The show
is new, clean and up to date, replete
with new songs, and certainly de
served the excellent patronage which
it received. Alva Dally News.
Ashland, Monday, June 10.
Income $140 a Minute.
John D. Rockefeller is now worth
more than $900,000,000, according
to estimates published by the New
York World.
The dissolution of the Standard
Oil Company has added more than
$100,000,000 to the value of the oil
king's holdings In the last year.
The newspaper statisticians figure
that his income is about $60,000,000
a year, or more than $140 a minute.
CARNIVAL PROGRAM IS ANNOUNCED
FESTIVITIES WILL BEGIN WEDNESDAY MORNING AND CONTINUE UN-
INTERRUPTEDLY FOR TWO DAYS-MANY NOYEL FEATURES
Arrangements for the carnival are
now complete and the dawn of Wed
nesday morning promises to see the
entire city decked in gala attire for
the big event of the season. In re
sponse to the request of the ladies
that the homes and business houses
be decorated for the occasion, many
have signified their willingness to
follow out the suggestion and others
are making plans for decorations
that will make Ashland present the
most significant holiday appearance
it has worn for years. It is hoped
that everyone in the city will aid in
ths matter, to the end that the spirit
of gavety may b. in evidence on
every hand. The gayer the colors,
the better the effect. Bunting, flags
and flowers will figure in the deco
rations. The opening d:iy will be parade
day, the carriage and float parade
being scheduled for the forenoon and
the automobile parade in the after
noon. Parades will form at the east
side school. Everything aside from
autos will figure in the morning
event, the procession being headed
by the queen's float and the Ashland
band, with the retinue of double and
single carriag3s, horseback riders,
bicycles and comic floats in regular
order. In the afternoon the queen
will again be in evidence as leader
of the auto parade. Many elaborate
floats are being prepared for both
these events and the parades prom
ise to be more spectacular than those
of last year.
On Wednesday afternoon will oc
cur the ball game on the high school
grounds between the fats and leans,
with Amos Nininger as captain of the
fats and L. J. Orres leading the
leans. It is reported that the make
up of these teams includes both the
longest and the fattest men in the
city and will be chock full of hair
raising episodes. Admission 25 cents.
The home talent play Wednesday
evening will be full of laughter from
start to finish. The play is a com
edy of the purest type and the cast
of characters is selected with a viewr
to the best possible presentation of
the story. Members of the cast have
been working hard. The play is now
ready, thanks to the efficient drill
work of Mr. Purdin. This feature ot
the carnival will be a pronounced
success and should meet with hearty
support. A royal theatre box will be
fitted up for the queen and her at
tendants. The admission fee will be
only 35 cents.

MORSE STILL RICH.
Released Ranker Has Wealth as Well
as Health.
New York. Charles W. Morse,
far from having been made a pauper
while he was in a federal prison at
Atlanta, Ga., has returned to find
that his business was so well admin
istered in his absence that he is
worth a million. Wall street is al
ready looking forward to the shaking
up of dry bones that will follow the
ex-banker's new advent into the
financial world. For Morse before
this has made a promise that he will
have revenge on his enemies.
In the course of his second visit
to Wall street Morse visited the of
fices of the Assets Realization Com
pany, at 25 Broad street. It was
here that he met the newspaper men
and said:
"I have no plans for the future.
Indeed, I would not tell what they
were if I had."
The former inmate of the Atlanta
penitentiary, released because the
doctors said he was dying, appeared
to be in such robust health that
someone ventured:
"How do you feel, Mr. Morse?"
"Fine, fine. I'm fine," was the
genial answer.
Morse also visited Arthur Braun,
his former secretary. Braun now
has an office on the fourth floor of
43 Exchange place. With Braun he
made a round or the financial dis
trict, shaking hands with old-time
friends.

TRANSPORT RETURN'S.
Situation in Sinaloa. KejMirted to Be
Horrible.
Los Angeles. The United States
army transport Buford, sent from
San Diego on May 10 to the relief of
foreigners along the west Mexican
coast, arrived here Friday afternoon
from Topolobampo and other Mexi
can ports and San Diego, en route, to
San Francisco, having on board 324
refugees, 41 having left the trans
port at San Diego.
At this port 159 refugees disem
barked, coming from Topolobampo,
Altata, Mazatlan, San Bias. Manza
nillo. Salina Cruz and interior points.
Of this number, 91 were nun, 3ti
women and 32 children.
None of the passengers was entire-
ly destitute, but some- of them had
left everything of value behind.
They were met upon arrival bv rep
resentatives of the Associated Chari
ties, the Y. M. C. A. and V. W. C. A.
and Rev. Mr. F.razee of the Nazarene
church. The minister took charge
of 27 missionaries returning from
various points.
One of the refugees commented
upon the situation as follows:
"The federal government, is un
able to cope with the situation.
Bands of brigands numbering from
20 to several hundred men wander
at will through the country destroy
ing property and looting ram lies aiid
towns. Culiacan was cleaned out
only a short time ago.
"While Americans are treated with
respect and consideration, the condi
tions relative to the lowest classes
of natives are horrible. Scores of
native men have been ruthlessly
murdered and the women and young
girls mistreated. Ninety per cent of
the towns attacked by the bands
have been taken. Everything is in
an uproar and the state of Sinaloa
is in the worst condition of any state
in the republic."

No little excitement, was caused on

evening about. 5 o'clock, when a teatii
of horses driven by Harold Barney
on the local gn.rery dt livery'syst 'in
ran ivvny and crashed into' a" light:
on Cr,:nite si, cel. The team
had been left nt the corner of Church
and Almond while the diht r was de
livering goods to near-by houses. An
inviting whisp of grass furnished tlm
original inducement. Once started,
the team saw liaimi street stretching;
out in front and the memory of for
mer escapades of the kind put the
thought into action. They tore down
Batini street, to Granite, headed
straight Tor the residence of E. Pell,
and in attempting to round the cor
ner crashed into a light pole about a
foot in diameter, breaking it off at
the base, wheie it was considerably
decayed. The pole fell upon the
backs of the horses and it was feared
for a time that one of them was lu
jured. Both were on the job on
Saturday, however, and seem none
the worse for their encounter. The
wagon was badly demolished, while
groceries strewed the wake of the
flying animals for two blocks. Mr.
Pell's beautiful residence was saved
from damage by the intervention of
the kindly pole, the team being head
ed directly for the large plate glass
window in the front.
With the breaking of the pole,
high power wires were severed and
there was considerable jumping
about in tnat vicinity for a few mo
ments to avoid electrocution. The
horses were extricated, however,
without injury to anyone from the
current.
