In more ways than one, the cycle club
recently organized in Ashland will prove
advantageous to our city. When the
track is constructed, lovers of sport will
spend the summer here in preference to
spending it at some tame, unpicturesque
resort not even possessing the natural
attractions that Ashland does. The true
metal and merit of our own wheelmen
will be cultivated and brought to public
notice—and Ashland will still lead all
Southern Oregon in every respect.
A quite serious disturbance was cre­
ated at the dance here last Saturday
night. Thomas Eliott, a young mail
who has been staying with the Stidham
boys at Tolo, is the victim. John Pen-
inger and Bart Patrich are the guilty
parties, Peninger committing the deed
by stabbing Eliott as he came down the
stairs into the hall. Patrick was arrest­
ed as an accessory to the crime. Pen­
inger pleaded guilty and was taken in
charge by sheriff Patterson to Jackson­
ville without bail. After examination
of some of the witnesses at the trial of
Bart Patrick, Monday afternoon, his
case was dismissed, owing to insufficient
evidence. Mr. Eliott being stabbed
near the heart chances are decidedly
against his recovery.
