Go to Peil’s shop near the depot for your blacksmithing, and have it done to suit you. * Remember you will only have one chance to hear the Ghicago Lady Quar tette. Do not miss it. Trout fishers are whippiug the streams about Ashland, but the fish are of the opinion that the weather is too cool for files, and they won’t come to the surface to discuss the matter at all. The band boys are making preparation for a grand time May 1st, at their con cert, comedy and ball entertainment. I t will be a regular May day festival of an affair. Republican primaries the comiing Sat urday. Albany has let the contract for the erection of a new $13,000 school building.

The Chicago Lady Q uartette gave a fine entertainment in Redding last night nnd a telegram received since says “If they stop at Ashland don’t fail to hear them.” A dispatch from G rant’s Pass Monday says: John Sacfert, of Wolf creek, was adjudged insane today, and was taken to the asylum by ^Constable Randle. The unfortunate man was an old bachelor, aud had been engaged in mining in various places in Southern Oregon for many years. Goxey’s army is moving but not as fast as the ladies waists at 50cts at D. R. & E. V. Mills. * The recent great strike in the Ashland mine is receiving flattering notice by all of the prominent papers on the coast, the Express included of course, which adds that the good fortune falls in the right place this time as the people of Rogue river valley, especially Ashland, are our kind of folk.—[Klamath Falls Express. About 100 freight cars and about a dozen passenger, mail and baggage coaches are standing on the sidetracks at Dundee idle. They are of the narrow- gauge pattern and are in good condition. The chief wrecker of the S. P. system has been inspecting them and it is thought the compauy contemplate removing them to California. Mrs. Herbert Smith, of Grants Prss, was kind enough Monday to allow a young hobo in the house and set a square meal before him. While her back was turned, the ungrateful wretch stole a sil ver watch which happened to catch his eye. There has been no trace of the hobo nor the watch since. “ Merrill” is the name of a new town for Klamath county. N. S. Merrill, of Tule lake, is the founder, and the loca tion is the site of the new gristmill at Merrill’s bridge, Lost river. Tony Cas- tel has surveyed the ’townsite, divided it into lots, streets and lanes, and when business begins there, in May, “Merrill” will call for a postoffice, blacksmith shop, store,^nd perhaps a saloon.—[Star. Poker matinees are the latest fud in Ghicago, whereat the gentler sex announce a 25ot limit. Same limit on straw hats at D. R. & E. V. Mills. * At the meeting of the Southern Oregon Presbytery at Grant’s Pass last week Rev. F. G. Strange of Ashland was elected moderator, Rev. S. S. Caldwell, permanent clerk, and Elder C. N. Tinker, of Med ford, temporary clerk. Rev. Robt. Chris- tison, of Myrtle creek, and Elder L. A. Sackett, of Ashland, were elected com missioners to the general assembly which meets this year at Saratoga, N. Y. All kinds of lumber kept in stock ready to fill orders promptly at the yard of Norris & Go., in railroad addition— also sash, doors, windows, shingles and furnishing material. [24 The democratic county convention was held at the court house in Grants Pass on Saturday and the following ticket was placed in nomination: Representative, Stephen Jewell; judge, J. M. Chiles;com missioner, Ben George; sheriff, Ed. Wal lace; clerk, N. Gates; assessor, George Bolt; treasurer, M. W. Cheshire; school superintendent, Mrs. Mary Simmons; cor oner, Dr. W. F. Kremer; constable, John Van Buren; delegates to the state con vention, J. W. Howard, W. F. Kremer, A. R. Yantis. The irrepressible Flynn has been giv ing the Oregonian a “big fill” about the numerous remains of Henry Wynnes’ victims found at the head of Jump-off- Joe since that Bluebeard passed in his checks. No remains have been found yet that can positively be identified as hu man. Some bones were brought in last week by J. D. Drennan and submitted to physicians for inspection, but whether they are the remains of a man or a bear the medicos are at a loss to determine. There is a very strong resemblance in the anatomy of the “noblest work of God” and a Bruin.—[Courier. Percales, ducks, dimities and knotted swisses for ladies waists at D. R. & E. V. Mills. * J. D. Wallis, of Paris, Idaho, arrived at G rant’s Pass last week to inquire into the mysterious disappearance of his brother-in-law, Henry Todd, in Illinois valley several months since. Wallace learned that an unknow body had been recently washed ashore near Gold Beach, and upon his arrival obtained descriptions of the body, and at once indentitied it as the lost brother-in-law, Todd. Foul play has been suspected, as it was known that Todd had about $600 in money on his person when he disappeared. "Wallace started at once for Ellensburg to get the remains and take them back with him to Idaho, going via S<m Fraucisco and the ocean.

A rousing time will be had. A ssignm ent. Walter O’Donoughue, of the cigar and variety store in Reeser block, today made an assignment to E. D. Briggs for the lienefit of all his creditors. His liabili ties amount to about $700, with assets about the same. Tim e E nough to P onder. Frank Youmans, convicted of robbing Hud attempting to kill Geo. Phillips, on the streets of Ashland several weeks ago, was brought before Judge Hanna in cir cuit court at Jacksonville yesterday morning and sentenced to serve a term of 15 years at hard labor in the Oregon pen itentiary at Salem. In the afternoon, Harvey Martin, who made a coufession acknowledging his guilt along with Youmaus in the above case, was brought before Judge Hanna, who after addressing the prisoner at some length, sentenced him to serve a term of twelve years in the penitentiary at Salem. R. R. Com m ission. The members of the Oregon state board of railroad commissioners, I. A. Macrum, II. B. Gompsou and J. B. Eddy, and their clerk, Lydell Baker, besides Wm. Ma- crnm, son of the commissioner, and C. W. Knowles, a guest, were on this morning’s south train in a private car, S u p t Fields, of the S. P. lines in Oregon, accompany ing the party. They all go to San Fran cisco for a day or two (Gen. Compson to meet his daughter on her return from the Sandwich Islands, much improved in health) when they will return und begin the semi annual inspection of the rail roads in Oregon, commencing at the state line. They will be in Ashland next Tues day night, lying over here on their return from San Francisco. C hicago Lady Q u a rte tte . From everywhere along the line where the Ghicago Lady Q uartette has been beard comes reports of the excellence of the entertainment they furnish and the word is passed along, “Do not fail to hear them if they come to Ashland.” And they are ooming to Ashland next S atur day evening, therefore do not fail to hear them. Here are a few more press expres sions: The members of the Quartette include four of the best voices from the World’s Fair Gity. Having sung together for several seasons, nothiug but soulful and approved melody bubbles from their lips. —(Quincy Herald. A quartette of musical ability. They sing as with one voioe, a faultless inter pretation and clear, concise rendition.— [Kansas Gity Journal. A splendid programme of thirteen numbers was rendered in a manner which left nothing for the most critical to desire. —|Omaha Bee. C au't Play in A shland. A called meeting of Ashland city coun cil was held last evening and several ordinances were passed, principally rela tive to the license system of the city. A new busiuess license ordinance was adopted but with no important change from the old oue. The manner of licensing shows, cir cuses, tbeatncal entertainments, etc., was changed considerably. Hereafter travel ing entertainments that play here under the auspices and for the benefit of local charitable or public benefit societies will be charged only a fee of 50 ots. for making out the license. The old license fee of $5 is retained for entertainments not coming under this rule, except of course home entertainments. The re corder is also made the judge as to wheth er or not entertainments shall be licensed by the city and is given authority to re fuse to liceuse any theatrical combina tion or show giving a performance that is debasing in its tendencies or is liable to have evil effects upon the youthful mind. Uuder this lust provision Reoorder Berry will refuse to license the Evans & Sou tag combination which is billed to show here next Monday and the manager has been so informed, so these people in Ashland who were awaiting for a chance to see the exploits of the notorious ban dits exemplified upon the stage will not be gratified, here at least.

The G. P. Courier reports that niuch damage was done to the peach and straw berry crops in Josephine county by frosts Suuday and Monday nights. No damage of consequence has been reported in the neighborhood of Ashland though there was considerable frost Sunday night. I t is rumored now that the Jackson county democrats are going to follow the fashion so much in vogue this year of nominating ladies ns candidates for coun ty school superintendents, and that the nomination on the democratic ticket in this county will be tendered to Miss Della Pickel of Medford. E. K. Anderson, who returned home Tuesday from Redding, reports a fire in that town Monday night which consumed several wooden buildings, the most valua ble of which was the Good Templars’ hall, The loss was not great. The fire department did good work and prevented an impending conflagration. Local musicians who have heard the Chicago Lady Quartette, say they give a most charming entertainment, as good in fact as they ever heard; that their appear ance will be the event of the season and every person in Ashland should be sure to hear them. The price of reserved seats has been reduced to 50 cents to guarantee a full house. The annual Sunday school convention for Jackson county has been in session at Medford this week, concluding yesterday. A good attendance is reported and much interest manifested. Among the dele- ites in attendance from Ashland were: evs. F. G. Strange, G. J. W ebster and G. W. Black, Mrs. D, G. Clark, Mr. and Mrs. G. F. Billings, Misses Esther Silsby, Clara Mingus, Fannie Fox and Aunie Loomis and Clarence Farnham, J. L, Downing, C. F. Shepherd. Geo. Phillips, the victim of the crime which has just sent Nobby Martiu and Frank Youmaus to the penitentiary for a term of twelve and fifteen years each respectively, was in town today and is going to get back his job with the sectiou men at Steinman. Phillips was held as a witness in the county jail from the time of the preliminary examination and has been drawing $2 per day and board from the county since, until the close of the trial. g New lot of red outings will arrive this week at D. R. & E. V. Mills. * Mrs. Henry Smith, of Ashland, is down at Wolf creek, on business pertaining to the receivership, recently announeed, of Smith Bros., the extensive merchants and ranchers of that place. About $60,000 worth of assets are involved in the assign ment which was made to I. L. Hamilton, of Medford, while the liabilities are some thing less. Mrs. Smith is one of the heaviest creditors of the firm but is well secured by a mortgage upon the big 2000-acre farm which is among the firm’s resources. Good graiu buy for sale. Apply to Wm. Myer, Ashland. " * Wm. Reynolds, field superintendent, International Sunday school convention, who came out to attend the county S un day school convention at Medford this week, was in Ashland over Sunday and occupied the pulpit at the union services held at the Presbyterian church in the evening as well ns delivering a lecture from the same pulpit at the morning hour. Mr. Reynolds was listened to by large congregations both times and is an interesting and forcible talker aDd has gained a wide reputation as a Sunday school worker particularly. You can get a good straw hat at D. R. <k E. V. Mills for twenty-five cents. * J. B. Riddle (Bouse) formerly of the hotel and railroad eating house at Med ford, now has more business than ever on bis bands. Besides having to look after his tewnsite hotel and other property in terests at Riddle (his present home in Douglas county) he has recently been appointed receiver of the Capt. Nash hy draulic mine, a valuable property now in litigation. The manager in charge of the mine had aaid that no receiver could get possession of the property without walk ing over his dead body, but Bouse went up to the mine and took charge some two W . M. Leeds, of the A shlaud T idings , weeks ago, and no corpse is reported was nom inated as the republican candi there up to date. date for state p rin te r in Oregon. Leeds is A H a rd Lot. About 50 hobos arrived in Ashland from the south last evening on the freight train. They did not claim allegiance to the industrial army but were simply tramps and a pretty hard set, too, from wfiat Marshal Smith reports. The marshal informed them upon their arrival here that he would help them all he oould but would insist that they move on north when the freight train left. He showed them where to build their supper fires and helped them around generally until time for the freight to leave when he saw them all aboard the train for the north. The railroad boys stopped the train, however, before they were outside the yards and put all of the hobos off and kept them off. This drove them back to their fires and to Marshal Smith who told them that they oould stay there over night but must move on out of town in the morning. One maD, a leader of a gang of about 30, wasjvery defiant and advancing toward the marshal, said: “D-----n your laws, we don’t care for them. We are going to stay here, and your town has got to feed us and get cars for us to ride out on.” The marshal thought otherwise and took active meas ures to get the men out of town. About thirty of them struck out north afoot last night, while the others waited until this morning to continue their journey. PERSONAL.
