? KicwcL- nip THP r.lTV mi it i -k -.,-!.;. j -&--,-fc--'J Those who went to witness "uasi.e': aS" f)'tr:fortned "by.'t'the Jacksonville dramatic' company ' at the Medford opera bouse last Friday evening, and , to confirm tbe reports of their many ' previous successes in tbe different ' towns in tbe Valley in which they have played, were agreeably' surprised at the successful production of the piay. While the attendance was not as large as had been anticipated as a matter of fact it was a mighty slender one what they lacked io numbers was fully made up in enthusiasm. The participants, with few exceptions, did their respec tive parts io a manner most credible to themselves. Henry Pape wll sus tained his reputation as a very clever actor at home any place you put him. : Miss Geneveive Roames, ' the sdubrette,' was all right and did well both as to her lines and stage work. Miss Louise Kubli, played lead lady and there wasn't a place where criti . cism could be called for. Mrs. Klrklin made an ideal old lady with a tine ling of aristocracy that was in good taste.- As a matter of fact the company Sail-'did well-and the play was. appre ciated, j Jacksonville play people, as a rule, produce much that Is really good in the dramatic line and this last effort was fully up to the standard. It was surely to be regretted that they, did - not have a better crowd. One leading cause of malaria and fever is the foul condition of the kitchen sinks and waste pipes, as soap will not deodorize them. The only thine that will cleanse such places is oure caustic, which can be obtained at the grocers and labeled Red Seal Lye.

It has been said that at - no time -are possible candidates for county . offices' thicker than, at conventions This may be true but the candidates for annointmetit to the office of county assessor were tolerably thick at the. county seat, this week. The resigna tion 61 Assessor Jackson was filed. wt tlaa commissioners and of course--this necessitated the appointment of 'isffiPl cessorto fill in tbe unexpirea-.term. laAirk Nail .wanted- to SDDOint J Wooldridjre; ex-assessor; Cdm.niisslbneH FmWwas latborine'Ior UOn. Henry KKnnle.of Medford: white Commu- sioner-Bradshaw brought out either of - the t wo deputies . which . Mr., Jackson has '.had work Is e under trim. Some little talk was had and an effort made to? agree. upon some good man, but thts they could not do as all were gooa men in the opinion of their champion. Mr. Bradshaw hnally concluded u aa as sessor wassDnbinted he was-the one wbawoold have to -yield his" -point, which he did-gbing with Mr. Furry, which elected Mr. Klinole. - It looked like there was bound to be a democrat appointed and Mr.. Brmdshaw.-who has been doing official business with Judge Neil for the past two years, felt, we presume, that right now the county ' ought to give him and his friends a va cation and rest from official duties.

The bicycle picnic which was ad vertised to take place last Sunday, along the bank of Rogue river, about ' two miles below Tola, materlllzed in a pretty, good time for nearly everyone who-was present. There were probably 150 or 200 people on the ground and those who were there with the expecta tion of havinc inst a nice, quiet little picnic--a boat ride on the rive", a ham mock swin? in the shade, a lunch of fried chicken and such of everything as makes up a srood dinner and a pleas ant talk with neighbors were not dis appointed in fact such had a pretvy - eood time, bat tbe fellow who wanted a whole circus with side show accom panlments, didn't get wbat he imagined he was paying for. The Medford brass band was on the grounds and there was good music galore and all those people scattered thereabouts were grateful because of the music. .There were six or eight row boats on the river and these we're kept' busy so lonsr as the erowd' remained. Photographer Mackey was there with bis camera and took several views of the. bicyclists and their wheels, also a numoer oi views oi different boatincr parties on the " river.

Walter Anderson has devised means, wnereoy ne is enaoioa to water his garden, that while not especially novel or unique at least shows enter prise. He has placed a water wheel In Bear creek, below the Seventh street bridge. The wheel is so arranged that bv means of a rope belt, to which are attached tin buckets, water is elevated to an altitude greater than his garden spot. A trough is made last to ine top of the wheel frame and from that point it extends to nis garaen, a cou ple of hundred feet away, where the water is mscnargea ana tne same usea for irrigating purposes. It- is not un reasonable to suppose that this method of irrigating the- land in close prox imity to the creek mayi become, gen eral should oar.

Uis authority for the same is a bear skin of huge size which served as a covering for over GOO pounds of bear meat. Tbe skin is second to none in size yet shown here, barring old reel-foot, which was killed in Siski you county some two years ago. 1 The story of the killing is one that ts ludi crous in the extreme.

On Tuesday, June &M, thero was a very happy little affair out at Enoch Walker's homo, north of Medford, the same being the marriage of Miss Mln- .me, March to Mr, Marlon Hartley, or Griffin creek.

No lady bears a better name than does the bride; none are there who have words other than those congratulatory: to the groom and no young lady is there in this community more . fitted to preside at the groom's hearthstone than is she who is now Aire.

It was In tbe army that he contracted the disease known as "soldier's heart trouble," which was the result of his sad death. . After leaving Missouri be went te Colorado with bis family, Then that territory was a rendezvous for outlaws and desperate characters of all kinds and where every man held his lite in his band. Soon after be had located there he was called upoo to till the duties of sheriff io that counlv in which he lived. At that time the office of sheriflV was. one that was shunned, owing' to the' desperate character of tbe inhabitants, and it was owing to the recognition of bis courage and fortitude that ne was unanimously .called upon to preserve the peace and quiet of his - community.
