Art Retaken at Leland and Sent to
Reform School.
Charlie Counts and Fay Kizer left
their wheels standing in front of
Coe's store Friday afternoon while
they were inside, but on returning
for them found that they had disap
peared. Later in the evening H. E.
Gale, who had driven in over the
Merlin road, reported having seen a
couple of bicyclists on the road who
rode as though they had stolen their
wheels, as Mr. Gale expressed it. Mr.
Counts at once engaged an automo
bile and started In pursuit. At Hugo,
learning that the two riders had gone
through that town, he wired on
ahead to Leland, where the pair with
the -wheels were stopped and taken
into custody. Saturday Sheriff Smith
went to Leland, returning on No. 15
with the men and the wheels, the
latter proving to be the stolen ma
chines. The young men apprehended with
the wheels are brothers, giving their
names as Clyde and Leonard Dalton,
16 and 17 years of age. They were
on their way from San Francisco to
Portland and Seattle, one of the
brothers claiming to be a linotype
operator. They were proceeding
north by the easiest methods they
could find, and here evidently con
cluded that by wheel was the easiest.
The boys were sent to the reform
school Mondoy on order from the
county court. Grants Pass Courier.
SAMPLES PROVE DANGEROUS.
Child Eats Patent Medicine, Think
ing It Candy.
Distribution of patent medicine
samples has resulted in another nar
row escape from death in this city,
says the Mall Tribune. Saturday
night Inez Brady, a grand-daughter
of Louis Heil, picked up some medi
cine samples of "De Witte's Kidney
and Bladder Pills and Kodal Dyspep
tic Tablets," and thinking them can
dy, owing to their sugar coating, ate
most of them. The little girl was
seriously ill for a time, but after
heroic methods had been employed
by Dr. E. H. Porter, who was called,
ehe was saved. The samples were
distributed from nouse to house.
The case was brought to the atten
tion of the city authorities Monday
and Mayor Canon has instructed the
city attorney to prepare an ordinance
which will make it an offense to dis
tribute such samples. Several states
have legislated against the practice,
making such distribution a peniten
tiary offense.
Will Start in Salem.
Salem. That Governor West will
make Salem his starting point iu
plans recently laid for the purpose
of making a crusade against vice and
lawlessness, was manifested when he
issued notice to Chief of Police Ham
ilton to the effect that the city's
failure to close up a local resort, lo
cated in the shadow of the state ar
mory building, will result in the Ore

DIRIGIBLE IS WRECKED
Five Liven Snuffed Out When Great
Airship Explodes Was to Have
Crossed the Atlmitir.
Atlantic City, N. J., July 3. Mrs.
Melvin Vaninian and the wives of
the three members of the dirigible
balloon Akron's crew, standing on
the veranda of the Vaninian cottage
near Brigantine Beach, early yester
day, saw the great dirigible explode
and then dart down from mid-air,
carrying their husbands to death in
nine feet of water in about a second.
The women screamed and covered
their faces and Mrs. Vaninian fainted,
but all shortly recovered and rushed
with 2,. 00 other spectators toward
the place where the balloon fell, kill
ing Vaninian and four others.
Accident is IhwrilM-d.
As the mighty dirigible plunged
downward a body was seen to detach
itself from the blazing mass and fall
into the water fifty feet from where
the balloon fell. It was recovered
by Councilman Harry Cook and A. T.
Bell, who put out in a motorboat,
and was identified as that of Calvin
Vaninian, brother of Melvin. The
center dynamo and the burned body
snowi a the explosion must have been
directly opposite the middle of the
car.
William Hill, V. S. revenue officer,
who saw the accident, said:
."We were watching the big ship
closely, remarking upon the beautiful
spectacle, the morning sun making
the huge bag glisten like gold, when
I noticed a whirl of smoke at the
stern. 1 remember glancing at my
watch and noting that it was exactly
6:4:.'. The ship was between 700
and 800 feet up, In my estimation.
Ship Staggers in Mid-Air.
''The smoke gained in volume and
the ship seemed to stagger. The
smoke continued to Increase for a
minute or two, running apparently
the whole length of the engine room
beneath the great bag, and then there
was a frightful concussion like the
firing of a great gun.
"The next instant the ship ap
peared to be a great mass of flame.
It seemed to me that the stern had
been entirely blown out. Then I saw
the whole thing was tumbling down
to the sea and closed my eyes."
it was in this great air craft that
Vaninian expected to cross the Atlan
tic. TWEXTY-SKVEX SUCCESSFUL.

Mrs. Frank R. Dickey.
Cora Alice McCulloch was born in
Grapevine, Texas, October 17, 1870,
Departed this life in Ashland, Ore.,
June 30, 1912. Aged 41 years, 8
months, 13 days.
Miss McCulloch came to Oregon In
1893, and to Ashland in 189S. This
city has been here home since then.
She was married to Frank R. Dickey
at Jacksonville, on October 23, 1904.
The happy couple went immediately
to their home in Roseburg, a few
years later coming to Ashland.
When but a child the deceased was
left an orphan, and the big future
was before her in which to mould
her life and character. She was a
woman of rare culture and grace of
refinement. Winsome in her man
ners, kind in her disposition. Her
home was her throne; she was the
queen to her husband and her
friends.
She leaves her husband, and one
brother in Caldwell, Idaho, to mourn
her loss. The body was shipped on
No. 14 for Portland, where interment
will take place.
Mrs. Dickey united with the Con
gregational chu-ch of this city a few
years ago, and was a regular attend
ant upon the services of the church
and an exemplary Christian. The
funeral services were privates only a
few of the most Intimate friends be
ing invited in to the last sad rites. !
Rev. W. A. Schwimley, pastor of the
deceased, spoke a few words based
upon "She openeth her mouth with
wisdom; and the law of kindness Is
on her tongue. rjUt a
woman that feVreth the Lord, she
shall be praised. Give her of the
fruit of her hands; and let Her works
praise her in the gates."
We are all better for having known
such a good woniiMi as Mrs. Dickey.
An entire community joins with the
bereaved husband in his sorrow.
