Casey, died ut her home on North Pioneer avenue at 1:00 o'clock Thursday morning, after an extended Illness. Almost a year ago Mrs. Casey suffered a par clytic seizure which left lier in a weakened condition. Several times during the present summer she had r. recurrence of the stroke, until the last took place the Saturday before her death, from which she never ral l'ed Siie was 73 years, and 6 months of age at the time of her demise. Tli? death of th!3 estimable woman removes from Ashland a well known personage whose life had been Inter woven with all the affairs of the city lor the past 3.') years In which she had been a resident. At the time of her removal to Ashland this city was Chautauqua Tickets Still At Old Prices Last year the only two articles which had not advanced In price were the postage stamp and the Chautauqua season ticket. This j ear even the postage stamp has gone skyrocketing and the season ticket (lands alone at the old price, save for the government's 10 per cent tax. The Chautauqua season ticket at ?2.50 is the biggest "buy" in the! country. It brings a full week of splendid entertainment, mu3lc and lectures for loss than ten cents a r umber. There are 26 big events during Chautauqua week. Your sea son ticket admlt3 you to every one r.f them.

Roast Beef Served Only Once A Week County Tood Administrator V. A. Folger announced last week the fol lowing new meat regulations: The food administration requests all hotels and restaurants not to placo on the menus or serve boiled 1 1 ef more than two meal3 weekly, and roast beef more than one meal weekly. It asks householders not under any circumstances to buy more than 1 14 pounds of clear beef week ly or 1 V4 pounds Including the bone, per person in the household. County Draft Board Reclassifying Men The draft hoard of Jackson county has just about completed Its work of reclassifying the registered men and lias transferrd from 60 to 70 from classes 2 and 3 to class 1. This reclassification will have to be passed on by the district draft board at Eugene before it is accepted as final and will be given out for pub lication. Many Jackson county men are affected by the reclassification t'nd will probably be called in the draft In the near future. and disappearing over the mountains a trifle 3011th of Mount Grizzly. Many raw and commented upon the light, but It disappeared so soon and was so high In the sky that Its form could not be identified. I 1111s is 1101 me ursi nine a mysor- ious light has been seen In that lo cality, however. According to reports residents on East Main street claim to have seen a brilliant light in the eastern sky after night going at a rapid rate at various points of that section ot the mountains. This has reen seen more than once by the same people, It Is claimed, and It Is also said that several different resi dents of that section viewed the spec tacle. There are those who contend that the vision of Friday night was a bril liant meteor, and others claim it was only a belated Fourth of July sky rocket. One of the latter theories is more likely to lie correct than the cue that an airplane Is wandering through the heavens In this neighborhood.

The ! commissioner of pensions lias Issued In circular explaining the op?rations j cf this new act which reads as fol lows: "The act of June 10, 101 S, amend ing tbe Sherwood pension law of May, 11, 1912. provides the rate of $30 per month for soldiers and sail ors of any age who served 90 days and less than six months during the Civil war and were honorably dls chaiged, and who are now receiving a lower rate. Those who are 72 ytr.rs of age, or over, are entitled to receive $32 a month; those who serv ed one year, $33 a month; one and one-half years, $3S n month; and two yeas of over, $10 a month. ' "These increases will be granted automatically, and without appilca tion of any kind to the pension bur- tau, to all soldiers and sailors now pensioned under the act of May 11, ".912, and who have attained the re quired age and served the necessary length of time. "Soldiers and sailors who served (hiring the civil war and are pen sioned at lower rates under some other law, but who are entitled to pension under the act of May 11, 1912, will bo required to file an ap plication under that act In order to lecelve the benefits of the new law. "The pension bureau will make these allowances with all the dis patch possilde under existing condi tions. A special force for the adjust ment of cases within tho provisions of the new law has been organized, which will handle these cases exclu sively. It should be borne in mind by those concerned that there arc now nearly 2GS.0OO pensioners un der the act of May 1, 1912, and all are urged to exercise patience and consideration. While every effort will be made to hasten this work, there will be no avoidable interfer ence with the progress of claims now on file under other laws. A special effort will be made not to interfere claims. "It will be wholly impracticable to make any payments at the Increased rate on July 4. 1918, but it is hoped that payments due August 4, 191 S. may be made at th s rate provided by the new law. It will not be neces sary to write to the bureau about those increases. Letters of Inquiry will simply delay the work of malting a'lowances.
