F. L. 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

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.
