Spending a Few Daysjn Med
ford With Relatives.
Robert A. Cook, better known
throughout the length anil breadth
of . Jackson count v as "Courthouse
Iluilder" Hob Cook, is spending; a
few days in Medford with relatives,
before returning to Grunts ,Passl
where he is making his home at pres
ent with his daughter, although he is
a resident of Fools 'Creek, where he
is postmaster.
Mr. Cook arrived in the Rogue Ifiv
er valley tor the first time on June
20. 18511, utter a trip across the
plains. Since then he has resMeil in
this county. He gained his title as
"courthouse builder" in the early
80s for it was due to his efforts as
county commissioner that a much
larger building was erected thun was
at that time deemed necessary, his
faith in the ultimate growth of conn
ty business being more than justified
since.
Many an old-timer in the county
figures in the tales of early days
that Dob Cook can tell of. lie was
active throughout his prime in coun
ty affairs. Me has been on the hooks
of the Jacksonville Times anil South
ern Oregouiau for over 40 yenrs.
Mr. Cook has been visiting his
brother, Samuel Cook, on the Apple-gate-
for the past few days. He is a
tyne of the sturdy old pioneers who
figured so largely in building up the
Oregon of today.
A Big Birdcage.
A very peculiar Institution In tlio
New York zoo Is what Is known ns
"the flying birdcage." This magnifi
cent aviary is the largest of Its kind
In the world, being 05 feet high, 72
feet wide and 150 feet long. Large
oak and other trees grow In this cage,
and tbe birds live within Its wire net
ting bounds In (he utmost freedom.
The frame of the cage Is built of Iron
pipes, which are covered over with
thin nwshed netting.

8wiss Flags.
Tbe Swiss flag Is red, and It bears a
Greek cross In Its center. The Swltzers
declared their Independence in 1307,
and at tbe battle of Morgortan, 1315,
where the Austrinns were defeated,
they carried a plain red flag without
any device. During the seventeenth
century a white cross was udded,
though It is said that the cross ap
peared on gome Swiss flags as early as
1330. The different cantons of Swit
zerland have different coats of arms
and different flags.

II. P. Jones, a special agent of the
general hind oi l ice, and Peter Ogileu

from Snleiii recently to inspect some
lands uhoiil the lakes the lilies of
which uru in question between the
slate and the I'uited Slates.
Tho greater part of the lauds in
this section have long since been class
ificd, cither as government or lis be
ongiug tit the statu under the swamp
land grunt of March 12, 18110, but
there lire some odds and ends still
undetermined. Tho classification of
these becomes very important, since
the Klauialh I'.usin is now coining into
its own and the rich alluvial lauds'
about the lakes will soon be in grent
lemiind.
Messrs. Applegnte and Jones went
up the Klamath lake by launch to
begin their exiimiuatioil of the low
lauds at lly head of the lake, and
will probably spend several days in
their investigations.
