Oregon Historical Society. Ashlanb. ti Tidings SUNNY SOUTHERN OREGON ASHLAND THE BEAUTIFUL VOL. XXXVII ASHLAND, OREGON, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 1912 NUMBER 52 HUNTERS MEET FINLEY State Game Warden Talks Over Pro posed Legislation With Local Ximrods Friday Xight. After the lecture Friday evening State Game Warden Finley met a number of the local sportsmen at the Commercial Club and talked over proposed legislation along those lines. There is, be says, a move on foot to close the Rogue river even to book and line fishing for certain times in the yeat. This is not ap proved by the Rogue river valley sportsmen, who believe that if dyna miting is- stopped and a limit, say. of three salmcTn per day, put upon the catch it will protect the fish and still give sportsmen pleasure at all times of the year. There is also a move on foot to reduce the bag of deer allowed to three, two bucks and one deer. Sportsmen claim that the present limit of no doe and five bucks is re sulting in such a preponderance of does that there is not the natural rate of increase. Special Song Service. A song service was a feature of the service at the Presbyterian church Sunday morning. The chorus, which Is conducted by Professor Isaac, gave special music. "I Will Extoll Thee," from the Oratorio Ely by Costa, was sung by Mrs. Conway. "Home, Sweet Home" was rendered by a quartet composed of Mr. McCoy, Mr. Enders, Mrs. Ashcraft and Miss Nissley, which was a most appropri ate conclusion to the sermon by Rev. H, T. Chisholm, whose text was taken from the twentieth chapter of sec ond Kings, fifteenth verse. "And he said, What have they seen in thine house? And Hezekiah answering, All the things that are in mine house have they seen. There is nothing among my treasures that I have not showed them." Rev. Chisholm dwelt on the home as the foundation of all religious training, and without these home "influences the church cannot achieve the best results in the train ing of children. King of Italy Creates Cousins. Rome, Nov. 2L As a result of Italy's war with Turkey, King Victor Emmanuel has three cousins. They are Marchest San Giugliano, minis ter of foreign affairs; General Paolo Spingardi, minister of war, and Ad miral Pasquale Leonardi-Cattolioa, minister of marine. In recognition of their .services in enabling Italy to get away with its grab of the two Turkish provinces of Tripoli and Cyrenaica, the king has' Just conferred upon them the collar which makes them relatives of the sovereign. The order permits the king to increase the royal family in this manner to the extent of 33 cous ins, but it is seldom that he exer cises this right to the full limit. Do Not Forget the Children.

Harriet Labadie, the noted dramatic artist, who is now on a second visit to the coast to fill a number of return engagements, has been engaged by the greater Medford Club to give a dramatic interpreta tion of Ibsen's play, "The Doll House," on Friday, November 29, at the Natatorium. Mnie. LabaJie is making the long est tour of consecutive seasons, em bracking the most extensive itinerary of the American continent ever un dertaken by a dramatic interpreter. Particularly interesting is the fact that during her tour of Alaska in the summer of. 1910, when the artist appeared in all the ports of call as far north as Nome, to which point she traveled 2,193 miles by boat down the Yukon, a 'trip that carries the voyager across the Arctic circle, Mme. Labadie gave interpretations Ibsen's "A Doll House" and "The Servant in the House," by Rann Ken nedy, both plays being received with an appreciation that exceeded her highest hopes. The trip back to the east was made with many return en gagements through the west by way of the middle west states from Win nipeg to San Antonio, Texas, and from Florida up through the cities of the southwest coast states to JTew York. In August, 1910, Mme. Labadie visited the maritime provinces of Canada and appeared in S,t. John, New Brunswick, exactly one year and a day after her appearance in Nome, Alaska, having thus half circled the continent. Apart from the interest attached to her unique tour, Mme. Labadie's engagement in this city promises to be a rare treat for all lovers of the highest dramatic art. Furniture at Wholesale Prices.
