DALLAS PILES UP
MONSTROUS SCORE
The crack Dallas college basketball
aggregation defeated the team from
Ashland Normal school at Dallus Sat
urday night by the overwhelming score
of 8H to 6. This score is believed to
be the largest ever made by a basket
ball team in the northwest in a regu
lar contest. In the first part of the
game the collegians did not exert much
effort in throwing baskets, and at the
end of the first half the score stood 29
to 0 in favor of Dallas, the teachers
getting two goals from the field. In
the last half, Dallas commenced throw
ing baskets at will, mnking a total of
59 points to a zero for Ashland. C raven,
the crack forward, threw 20 field bas
kets. Shaw 19, Fenton 7 and Savery
3. The game was clean and free from
roughness, very few fouls being called.
.Since December Hi, the beginning of
the basketball season, Dallas college has
played seven regular games, winning
every one by heavy margins.

IS CHAMPION
C OW MILKER
OF WORLD
Mrs. Maud Snyder of
Medford Holds Re
cord0ver TenThou
sand Cows Milked.
Mrs. Maud Snyder, wife of J. W.
Snyder of Medford, Or., claims tn holl
the world 's record as a cow milker,
having beaten the. record of Hannah
Bnrke, the West Chester (1'a.) girl,
who has been titled the champion cow
milker. During the year 1!M)7 Mrs.
Snyder milked 2S cows every day, or n
total of 10,220 during the year, as
against 7700 milked by the Pennsyl
vania, champion. During the absence
of her husband from the ranch, Mrs.
Snyder often milked the entire dairy
herd of 35 or 40 cows.
Mrs. Snyder was brought up in South
ern Ohio in Gall in county, nnd is as
pretty and accomplished a young wom
an as any Pennsylvania girl that ever
milked eows or played the piano. In
beauty as well as a milker she prob
ably distances her rival.
During the past year Mrs. Snyder
never missed a day nnd is, besides be
ing always on hand, a very swift and
d ft milker. If her record enn be beat
die would like to hear of it, nnd in
vites comparison nnd inquiry.
The dispatch regarding Hannah
Burke's performance is as follows:
' 4 West Chester, Pa., Jan. 1;", Han
nah Burke, one of our best nnd pretti
est girls, hnH won the championship of
all the civilized world, with the ex
ception of Abyssinia, in the cow-milking
line. She milked cows 7700 times
in 1!'07, an average of 21' -j cows per
dav. That is regarded as a record in
this city, and Miss Hannah invites in
vestigation of it. ' '
WIFE OF MAJOR WINS
A SOCIAL VICTORY
PHILADKLPHIA, Jan. 23. As host
ess lit the private annual view of the
Academy of Fine Arts Mrs. John E.
Heybnrn, wife of the mayor of Phila
delphia, has won her first pitched bat
tle with the lenders of conservative so
ciety in this city. Such an honor hns
never before been accorded to the wife
of a Philadelphia mayor, nor has the
society of any other important city of
the country recognized that the office
of mayor carries with it social rights
for the better-half of the mayor. "As
the wife of the president is the first
lady of the Innd, so should the wife of
a mayor be the first lady of the eity,"
is Mrs. Reyburn 's declaration of inde
pendence, and it hits made clannish nnd
conservative Philadelphia society sit' np
and gasp. Although Mrs. Reyburn has
won the first skirmish, there are likely
to be some lively times in the social cir
cles of William Pe nn's town before the
remaining three years of Mayor Rey
burn 's administration expired.
Wives of municipal chief executives
throughout the country will watch Mrs.
Reyburn 's fight with interest. If she
is successful in her contention, the de
mand for the social rights of mayor's
cotisnrts may become general through
..at the land.

HY ARTHUR A GRKKNK.
I had the pleasur-. along with ninny
others who crowded the local theater to
its capacity, of seeing the performance
of A ml ran 's familiar old light opera,
''The Mascot," last night.
Considering the fact that the nffnir
was almost, wholly amateur, it appealed
to me as being one of the most credit
able local talent perf orinunce 1 've ever
seen.
To begin with, the piece is tuneful,
providing many attractive solo, duet nnd
ipiartet numbers, and an abundance of
dean, witty comedy. It has been a
standard musical attraction for two or
three decades and is always depend
able. Old Acquaintance Ronewed.
More years ago than 1 care to recall,
Kd Andrews and his talented wife and
niece entertained me in a fashion that
served to delight the audiences that
turned out to hear the Andrews Opera
company, The former is one of the
greatest Ko Ko's that we have ever had
in this country, and it is on "The Mi
kado" that their greatest fame reals.
The work nf Kd Andrews and Mrs. Ila
zclrigg, she who wns Nellie Andrews,
last night was fully up to their for
mer mark of excellence.
Prince Lorenzo could not have been
funnier on any stnye in the country.
It bore the stamp of tho genuine An
drews humor, which is as spontaneous
an laughter nnd nn stnplo a-s old wheat.
Mrs. Hazelrigg Ielfghtful.
Mrs. Hazelrigg 'g work in the name
part was delightful from the beginning
of tho first to the end of the last, net.
Mr. Withington 'h performance, ns
ocro was as finished as though t lint
gentleman lind been n professional of
long standing. He never failed to
aroue the risabilities of his audience
at the physienlogical moment nnd in nil
respects he handled the part, ndmirably.
1 cannot speak in too high terms of
the Fiametta of Miss Kifert, who. In
spite of her lack of experience nnd her
brief preparation, sustained the best,
traditions nf the piece in her singing
and acting. Tt is most refreshing to
we oieh an exhibition of fre.sh, un
spoiled talent.
Though far from my purpose to en
courage any young person to enter nit
on a stage career, in view of the innny
heartbreaking disappointments nnd
wrecks I have seen, it is not fulsome
flattery to sa v that this voutig huh
mili a:itj. '.ate u creditable career

Sold in Small Tracts
-Many Sales of Real
Estate are Made.
William Hart Hamilton, the original
owner of the lilue Ledge mine, has
purchased the I' Inch ranch at Kaglo
I'oinl, which consists of 1)10 acres, for
:f-i,OU0, The land was recently bonded
by Honore Palmer, but tho bankers '
panic prevented consummation of tho
deal. The land lies along Butte creek
and the site of the present terminal of
the P. & K. railroad is located upon tho
property.
Mr. Hamilton will plant the entire
tract to fruit, subdivide it and Hell in
small tracts on the installment plan to
purchasers. Small orchards have been
the crying need of the valley for years,
for nine-tenths of the inquiries received
by realty dealers are for five, ten and
20-acro places.
Hns Faith in Mod ford.
Mr. Hamilton has made other heavy
invest ments in Medford and has firm
faith in the city s future. Ho lived
formerly tit Crescent City, but recently
luus resided at Santa Harbnra. He will
probably remove to Mttdford in tho near
future. He is widely known as nu en
ter) prising and progressive citizen nnd
will be a decided acquisition to Med
ford. Other realty sales are reported and
more will follow as the result of tho
sale of the P. V K., which will quicken
all channels of business.
