Camps had a very unusual experience last Thursday evening about nine o clock, when he came within a hair's breadth of running down two oeer a buck and a doe with his Ford auto. Mr. Camps was coming into town with L. J. Ferguson and wife in the back seat and when near the Wyant mine about a mile and a half from town he was startled to see the two deer standing in the middle of the road in the glare from his auto lamps, which apparently either greatly interested them or temporarily blinded them. They ap peared to be fascinated by the lights and stood looking at them until Mr. Camps was within less than a foot of the buck and nearly as close to the doe. They apparently came to them selves just about that time and leapt into the brush and disappeared. Don't Fail to Register. The attention of voters is called to the fact that the period of regis tration prior to voting on road bonds will close Saturday night of this week. The Record has not looked into the matter of registration in the various precincts of the Ashland dis trict but is advised that in the largest of the five precincts there are fully three hundred voters who are not registered. The same proportions of unregistered voters probably holds good in the other four precincts. It would seem, in view of the fact that Jackson county will vote on the issu ance of $500,000 road bonds on the ninth of September, that every voter should register. It is provided by law that registration shall close fif teen days before a special election. It is true that there will be opuortun Ity to register again after the ninth of September until within thirty days of the general election held on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November, but it would seem that any voter who expects to avail him self of the franchise this year would want to be in shape to vote one way or another on those road bonds. The Record would suggest, therefore, that inose wno nave not registered both men and women get busy at once Even Exchange. Eggs and produce taken - in ex change for dry goods, shoes, gro ceries, etc., at the Ashland Trading Company. 71-tf HAS STRENUOUS EXPERIENCE. R. J.. Smith Lost From Camp 26 Hours Recently. R. J. Smith went through a harrowing-experience the past week. He went on a hunting trip with his father-in-law, M. C. Bressler, and C. J. Coburn. They established a camp on Keen Creek in one of the wildest places. Sunday morning at five the three started in different directions to hunt. They were to rejoin at camp about one o'clock but Mr. Smith failed to come in. Mr. Bress ler fired his rifle and was answered by Mr. Smith apparently about forty rods from camp. Messrs. Coburn and Bressler began gathering things up preparatory to moving camp, expecting that Mr. Smith would arrive at any minute. Upon his failure to do so they again fired their guns but got no response. Between the camp and the place from which Mr. Smith answered the first signal gun is a very brushy tract and presumably, in attempting to get around this, Mr. Smith lost account of directions and wandered away from camp. When he did not return Messrs. Bressler and Coburn began to fear that he had shot himself when he fired the signal and they started out to search for him. In spite of their efforts they could not find trace of him or get any response to signals. In trying to locate the camp Mr. Smith wandered into the wilderness about four miles becoming more confused, by the utter lack of land marks, the farther, he .went. He finally made camp toward evening and decided to stay in it till he fig ured out "where he was at" or until those whom he knew must be search ing for him discovered his where abouts. It grew so cold during the night that ice froze along Keen creek. Mr. Smith gathered a large amount of wood for him camp fire but ran short about midnight and had to grope around in the wilderness for more. Being without a coat and without anything to eat since five o'clock in the morning and being unable to lo cate water he spent a very distress ing night and welcomed the early dawn. During the night he meditated on his movements of the day and fig ured out that it must be in a certain direction from his camp. His de ductions proved correct. He soon found the road and was traveling along it with the idea that it at least did not run in circles and would lead him some place. About seven-thirty Monday morn ing he met his father-in-law and Mr. Coburn coming down the same road. He says it was certainly a joyful meeting and he doesn't remember when he was so glad to see his fath er-in-law. LAXE XOT COMING. Secretary of Interior Will Xot Visit the Valley. Secretary of the Interior Franklin K. Lane will not come to Southern Oregon at this time. This is definite. Instead of Lane, Assistant Secretary Miller and other members of the Lane party now on the coast inspect ing government irrigation projects came down Tuesday. In the party were Mrs. Franklin K. Lane, wife of the secretary of the interior, and Mr. and Mrs. Fred H. Hopkins, who ac company them from Portland. Mr. Miller was taken on an auto ride through the valley and started for Crater Lake this morning. He will meet Superintendent Steel at Prospect and be accompanied by him to the lake. Mr. Miller's visit is even more im portant to this section than Mr. Lane's would be, as he has direct charge over the national parks. He will remain until after the close of the meeting of the Central Oregon Development League at Klamath Falls Thursday. Secretary Lane arrived in Portland Sunday. He made the trip up the Deschutes Sunday and Monday was wined and dined by the Portland Commercial Club. Tuesday he left for Colorado Springs, where he will attend a conference of governors Au gust twenty-fourth. NEED A THIRD MAX. Two Xight Men Needed, Believe Chief and Mayor. At the council meeting Tuesday night Chief of Police Porter asked for another night man declaring the cleanup program now under way is too strenuous for himself and Night Officer Hatcher. Chief Porter stated that since the vice crusade started he had had but six nights at home, besides doing day duty. Mayor Johnson favors an extra man believing the cleanup of lew! characters and the pushing along of bums should continue until Ashland is given a wide berth by this gentry. He thinks the city is no worse than heretofore but the police are merely seeing more. He thinks two police were a plenty so long as they saw nothing. Councilman Sherman has been act ing as special night man temporar ily but was advised "by the mayor that he could not do so longer under the law without resigning as council man. He promptly agreed to resign and take the job of night officer. Several of the councilmen discour aged the idea and the matter of ap pointing an extra night man was de ferred. At Work on New Dam. Clute and Irwin, who were recently awarded the contract for the con struction of the cement dam at the upper intake on Ashland creek, be gan work Monday. They have cre ated a temporary dam above the in take by means of sacks of sand, etc., and have piped the water from it to the intake thus leaving a dry space In which to construct the new dam. lO Cent. 4$l.OO a Button.
