That Southern Oregon and Crater
Lake will be visited this summer by
the Mazaraa clubs ot the coast there
aeems no longer a question. Messrs.
C. H. Sholes and T. Brook White, of
the Portland club, were in Medford
last Friday and arranged satisfac
tocally the one principal detail that
f transportation to Crater late from
the railroad and return. A rate of 96
per passenger both ways was thought
ipoeaoouinguk bdu upva tuis oasis
transportation for 200 people was se
cured among the farmers by Mr.
Woolf, whose services had been se
cured for that purpose by tbe Medford
Crater Lake club. The Mazamas are
ot particular what the conveyance is
so long as it gets them to the lake in a
reasonable length of time. Parties
wishing better conveyances can secure
them at the livery stables but the
price will be a little better than that
given above Ashland has mads the
one rate. Which town gets the
greater number of them will depead
upon the other advantages of routes
which can be set forth and the proper
advertising of the scenery along the
line-- There may not be more than
tfty people itf the 'crowd and there
ay be duu. xne raiiroaa company
has agreed to give one fare rates for

as a teacher of these two branches of
fancy work during which time she
taught six years in the art rooms in
Oakland, California. She teaches the
ingle thread filo work, and honiton
and silk embroidery on linen, and
wide from this is drawn work. She is
desirous of securing a class in this city
and to enable those desiring lessons to
examine her work she has left a few
samples at Deuel A Stevens' dry goods
store. An especially fine feature in
her work is that it is difficult to dis
tinguish the right from the wrong side.
Her terms are fifty cents for a two
hours' lesson, or ten lessons for 84 50.
Orders for scholarship may be left at
Deuel & Stevens and when a sufficient
umber has been secured she will ar

A Blow at
Prices . . .
Our prices on Groceries during
the winter were as low as we
thought they could be sold with
anything like a fair profit, but
now as spring draws near we
find that prices the coming sea
son will probably be a little lower
than lastt and my customers will
get the benefit of the reduction.
In the past it has been my aim
to deal squarely with aU be
lieving that a pleased customer
was a good advertisement. If
you were not my customer in '95
now is the time to turn over a
new leaf aud trade with me in "95.
