Brief Mention of Our City's Beautiful Homss Where Located and
by Whom Owned Fruit Orchards, Berries and Vege
tables in Abundance and Flowers Galore.
Pen Picture of the Most Beautiful and Thriving Cify in South
ern Oregon-Surrounded by Rich Mineral and Agricul
tural Land and Unsurpassed Fruit Farms.
As your reporter wends his way
out U a point of starting he finds
that a good portion of South A and
B streets is about as' pleasant a lo
cality as one would care to live in.
Fruit trees abound out this way
and while there is an absence of
the large oak shade trees found on
North A street there are many trees
put out and doing nicely which
will in a few years fill the shade
want provided elsewhere hy nature.
A walk of a few blocks brings us to
the residence of
MB. W. B. ROBERTS.
This gentleman is the most ex
tensive land owner on this street.
His place is very pleasantly situa
ted, fronting as it does on one of
our most prominent thoroughfares
and at the hack is Bear creek. In
Mr. Huberts' original plat were 170
acres, seventy of which have been
platted into village property and
most of it sold. The remaining 100
acres lavs sloping towards the creek
and near the house is a tine carden.
well cared fur and filled to its fullest
capacity with vegetables and ber
ries. A fine vineyard of 200 plants
is also found here. Several acres
of a very healthy. and productive
orchard of all varieties of fruit is
crowing just north of the house.
In front of the house is a fine lawn
and flower beds finely laid out and
full uf beautiful blooming flowers.
The buildings are large and sub
stantially built. The dwelling
house is a wooden structure and
was built thirty-five years ago and
every piece was hewn or shaved out
of the tree by hand. It is in a fine
state of preservation. The cost of
the building was between six and
seven thousand dollars. Mr. Rol
erts is from Knapa county, Califor
nia, and has lived in Jackson county
sixteen years. He expect to pick
500 gallons of blackberries this year.
Taking the place from all sides it
is a model of neatness throughout.
MR. J. E. ROBERTS.
A quarter of a mile south of the
homestead is the pleasant little
home of Mr. J. E. Roberts. This
gentleman has a two acre tract of
land which is fitted up in very nice
shape and is truly the right style
of a home. Mr. Roberts assists in
conducting his father's farm and
has an interest in the same.
MR. W. D. ROBERTS.
Only a short distance to the north
of the old homestead is where the
above gentleman is cosily domiciled.
The place has been under cultiva
tion but a short time but bears
marks of careful attention. This
gentleman, as well as his brother,
also has an interest in the home
stead and assists in the farm work.
To both these brothers we are in
debted for many courtesies extend
ed.
Across the street is a fine fruit
orchard owned by
MR. M. S. DAMON.
There are about two acres of the
very finest of fruit trees of all va
rieties which are loaded as heavily
as they can possibly bear up, with
the very choicest of fruit.
MR. ELI HOG AX.
On the corner of A and Ninth
streets is the brick residence owned
by Mr. E. Davis and occupied by
Mr. Hogan. There are about four
acres of land sur-ounding this fine
residence and fruit, berries and veg
etables reign supreme. Mr. H. is
from Arkansas and has lived in
Medford only since last April. He
is a tinsmith by trade and expects
to soon open a shop on Front street.
The good ladies of this household
turn many n honest dollar bv
keeping a limited number of board
ers. DR. O. F. DEMOREST.
Adjoining Mr. Davis' property on
the west and facing Ninth street is
the neat little home of Dr. O. F.
Demurest, who in company with
his brother Henry, has dental par
lors in the opera house block on
Seventh street Mr. De mores t owns
thn property where he lives two
lots, and he has the same planted
to fruits and berries. Both O. F.
and Henry are from Toronto, Can
ada, and have lived in Medford
about nve years. l uey enjoy n
good practico in their . profession,
which is gradually building up to
quite a lucrative one.
dr. e. kirchoessner.
One lot further west is found the
residence occupied by Dr. E. Kirch
gessner. The property is owned by
G. W. Howard, former! of this
place. The property comprises
several lots, and fruit trees well
loaded with ripening fruit abounds.
The doctor before coming to Med
ford last March was a practicing
surgeon in the Cook coutity hos
pital, Chicago, which fact carries
with it one of the best possible en
dorsements which could well be
procured by this class of profes
sional men. The doctor has formed
a partnership with Dr V. S. Jones
and the two have ofice rooms in
opera house block.
MR. L. P. CHANDLER.
The place of residence of the
above named gentleman is on the
corner of B and Ninth street where
he conducts a wood yard. Mr.
Chandler is a recent arrival in
Medford. His native state is Illi
nois, but more recently he is from
the Coos Bay country. The prop
erty which he leases belongs to Col.
j Jacob Johnson, (colored) who un
like the majority of bis race has
acquired a goodly amount of this
world's goods.
MR. MARE ARMSTRONG.

and fronting on B street is the resi
dence owned by Rasmus Rasmus

strong. This gentleman is a native

by Dr. 1'ickel. Aside from this

A Visit to Crescent City, California.
Written tor Ths MsnroRO Mail.
Leaving Talent on Friday morn
ing, June 22nd, after the soaking
rain the day before, we found the
dust well laid and some puddles of
water, but the weather was as clear
and pleasant as we might ask. Af
ter procuring a 9x10 foot tent and -complete
supplies at Talent, Med
ford and Central Point while pass
ing through these places, we
lunched at the CeDtral Point camp-
meeting grove, and camped and
pitched our tent on the bank of

We found the coast range very
hilly and but very little'level land
after crossing the Illinois river four
miles beyond the mining town of
Waldo, but the road is superb and
an ensy grade all the way, but the
toll is 13 each way for a two horse
vehicle. We considered this cheap '
after learning the grading cost, a
least $100,OUO. The toll gate is at
Gasqurt's ranch. IS miles from Cres

immense and the ocean more so.
We fouud the citizens of the place

and Indians. We camped five
days on the oluff near Pebble Beach
two miles southwest of the city.
Leaving our goods in care of the
Indians near by, we visited around
day times and went home evenings.
We visited the logging camps, saw
mills and dairy ranches on Smith

reached Talent on Thursday, July
