Dl'RXEl) BRIDGE OF
IXCEXDIARY ORIGIN
The fire which destroyed a part of
the railroad bridge over Jump-off
Joe creek near Merlin In Josephine
county early Tuesday morning, re
sulting in the wrecking of a South
ern Pacific freight train and the de
struction by fire of soveral carloads
of lumber, was of Incendiary origin,
in the opinion of Fred A. Williams,
member of the state public service
commission, who visited the scene of
the wreck that same morning.
Another train had passed over
the trestle three hours earlier and
there was no sign of a fire at that
Grenada Sunday to see the airplanes.
The airplanes passing over Hilts
Monday morning caused quite an ex
citement. The mill and factory stop
ped a few minutes to let the men get
a view of th9 airplanes.

Mrs. Estella V, Mlllner, a former
well known resident of Ashland and
mother of Geo. E. Millner of this
city, died, at her home in Anaheim,
Calif., Saturday, May 31, 1919, aftor
a lingering Illness Mrs. Millner had
bejsn In delicate health for the past
ten or twelve years, altho she had
begurt to fail rapidly only a few
weeks previous to her death.
Both Mr. and Mrs Millner were
prominent In Ashland's history where
they had resided for many years, and
the death of this estimable woman
Is deeply regretted by a large num-
tlme, Williams said. He contends
that no blaze of accidental origin
could have consumed such an expanse
of bridge in so short a time as was
the case In this fire. The location
of the bridge, he declares, Is Ideal
for the staging of & Serious wreck
and only the preconce of mind of the
engineers of the first locomotive,
who applied the air before jumping,
thus bringing the train to & stop,
prevented the two helper engines, as
well as the Pest of the train, .from
going Into the ditch, at the proibablo
cost of many lives.

th3 type of picture presented to tho
public. Mr. Fairbanks has brought
to the screen the gospel of good
cheer, the spirit of "Xever-saydio"
and the breezlness of his own mag
netic individuality. Every one of
his pictures is a point against tho
Demon Groupli, and every one car
ries a lesson in optimism, none the
less potent for Its sugar coating.
That was the sort of stuff that ap

the sort of stuff that appeals to most

go to a Fairbanks film and not be
