Hedford's New Opera House.
' Work on the Wilson Opera House, as
ft is to be called, Is being pushed by a
large force of carpenters under the per
sonal supervision of the owner of the
building, Mr. J. R. Wilson. It Is ex
feoted to hae tbe caapenter work com
pleted in another week, but before the
painting and plastering is done a grand
ball will to given in the opera house
ander the auspices of the Medford
Tire Department.
It is a conceded fact that the Wilson
opera house will be the finest building,
tst furnished and equipped, and safest
kail In case of fire, of an; public hall in
Oregon south of Salem. The main
loor 18-40x68 feet, affording ample space
or danoing and other like amusements
and it will hare chairs for SCO persons,
and the galleries, which extend across
the bark end and half way along each
side of the room will seat 200, giving a
total seating capacity for the opera
louse of 700, but in case of necessity
space can be bad for at least 100 more
thrirs. Tbe stage door is 24x60 feet
with the celling 1'i feet in the clear,
allowing plenty of stage room for the
- setorsand the scenery of any company
. that may appear in Medford. The en.
tire space of 24x50 feet beneath the
stage w'l! be fitted up with dressing and
toilet rooms with stairs to reach each
f them at the end of the stage. No ef
fort will bo spared to make the dress
ing rooms' conveniences perfect and to
Sully meet the requirements of all who
may use them. -
- The building has a substantial stone
Sandatioo beneath it so there will be
no possibility of its ever settling and
lecomin? dangerous from that cause
Tbe ceiling and the walls down to the
wainscoatlng are to be plasetered and to
iave a bard finish The ceiling of the
auditorium U arched thus giving the
100m a graceful and airy appearance
d it is thought that it will add to the
acoustic properties of the hall, which
are expected to be perfect The build
ing will be heated by a furnace and
lighted by electricity and special care
-.. aas been taken to secure thorough ven
tilation.. Over the main - entrance on
light 6treet a balcony has been built
it he re bands can give concerts before
-the regular performance, begins. In'
addition to the main entrance on
. light street there is a double door 00
&ch side of the main floor and a small
door at each end of the stage, tbe aide
ytni stage doors leading to sidewalks on
each side of the building that extend to
the street. These five doors preclude
the possibility of there ever being a
- ym in case of emergency that makes
the clearing of the house a matter of
xmments of time. There is a double
iooc at each end of the' stage so that
s roper ty oan be placed easily upon the
stage-direct from tranefer wag0ns.
While the carpenter work has been
aone by tbe day, the work has been
under the supervision of G. L. Scber
anerhorn and to his skill as a . designer
1 is due the graceful effect of the arched
st-ilirur, as well as the unobtrusive- ap
pearance of tbe galleries and the gen
aral appearance artfr'symmetry of the
ntlre iuterior aad exterior of the build
. ' t .
Tbe Wilson opera house is certainly
a credit to Medford, for it is a solendid
addition to the city's publio buildings.
and It mil be no small factor in sus
taining Medford in its prettage of be
ing one of the most up-to-date, pro
gressive towns in Oregon."' , . '.
Messrs. i. O. Howard and J. H. At
well, of this city, are the gentlemen
vbo have the painting contract on this
building, both idelde and outside.

F. K. DEUEL & CO.,
Someone Set Plre on Wagner Butte.
Last Sunday forenoon some mlsorosnt
sot out a (tro on one of tho loothllls ol
Wagnor Butte and soon tho whole hill
side was enveloped In smoko from tho
burning brush and troos. Thoro Is a
state law against setting out llro and
tho Unltod States stnttiui provlilos u
vory severe penalty lor suoh'iiii olTonso
upon tho imhlio laud, uvon though tho
lire was uot purpoivly sot, ctirolossnoss
with a rnnipflre bolng no oxionuntUin
for tho offonso. It Is thu duty of every
porsun who hits tho welfare of this "eo
tlon ol Oreiion at heart to guard against
tho ravages of fires In tho timber and
to promptly roportany violation nl tho
law. Wero thern no llrrs to destroy
tho young growth It would bo but a few
years until tho bills of Southern Oregon
would be entirely covered with forests.
In addition to the direct money value
of the timber that could be grown on
the now brush covorcd hllloldel,- I lie
gain to tho mining and agricultural In
terest of this section would be of al
most incalculable value. It la a well
known faot that on a hare hill tho tnow
molts off quickly and the wator from a
rain rurlies down to streams as though
from a bonne roof, leaving the irrouiid
to dry up quickly, and the brooks and
creeks dovoid of water but for a brief
period during the winter months. A
timber covored hill with Its coating ol
mos and trash is like a great sionge
to abtorb and to hold back the snow
and rain water, giving ItolTa I li tie at
a time, thus equalizing the water sup
ply ol the country and the flow of water
In tbe streams. This constant evapora
tion of moisture from tho hills would
have a deoldod effect In equalizing our
climate both as to Its dryuoss and lit
temperature
To the fruit growers these forests
would mean lo's liability to trusts In
tho spring and more moisture during
tlio summer, thus making tho ollmatin
conditions tor fruit, raising oven moro
perfect tban thoy now are. To tho
farmer, moister Bummers would mean
dollars and dollars to their pockets, for
the crop ylold would be morn certain
and pastures would ylold an Increase of
food and for the crops that require ir
rigation, for less water would bu re
quired tban la now neoded and besides
the water supply would be more abun
dant when most neoded. The miners
who aro Important factors to the pros
perity of this taction wnnld be greatly
benefited by a moro ev-in distribution
of the water supply durl.-K the various
months of , the year. In I...-1, there Is
not a person in .luck-no. County who
would not be benWlU'il by having our
bill" uhangod from barren wastes to a
foi-o-l clad country. So let us all gnard
against forest flres, far It means both
money and comfort to us,
