(Dug) Wolgamott with being drunk In a public place, and bis bonds fixed at $500. The indictment was issued as against John Doe until Wolgamott was notified. The true hill Is the outgrowth of the arrest last spring nf Wolgamo:! while attenldng a dunce at Jackson vllle by the then Deputy Sheriff Joe McMabon. Wolgamott was tried in Justice Glenn 0. Taylor's court and discharged. Afterwards he filed a damage suit for (3800 against Mo Mahnn, tor alleged assault, humilia tion, etc. The fracas was also given publicity during tho Bulgln revival meetings by inference, and durim; the sessions of the grand jury Justice illenn Taylor was a witness before the inquisitorial body In regard to the matter. The case at the time attracted con siderable attention owing to the prominence of both sldcB, und fur ther heightened by Sheriff Terrill's varying statements, whether Wollga mott was intoxicated. Immediately after his incarceration the sheriff was quoted as saying Wolgamott was drunk, and at the preliminary hearing he testified that he was not, saying he merely swelled whiskey on his breath. Dr. .1. W. Sweeney who was called by Wolgamott for medical service also testified that Wolgamott was not ilniiik.

Tlin wool growers of the southern Oregon district of the Oregon Wool and Mohair Growers association inoi at the publi library Monday after noon for the purpose of electing two directors to represent Curry, J-ose-pblne and Jackson counties on the board of directors. Frank DeFord of Central Poln, and Fred Herrlu of Ashland were unanimously elected. There are fourteen directors in the state and each director represents about 11,000 sheep. The state as sociation now has a membership of 1600 und over 200,000 sho-p have been signed up. Each member has signed a five year contract agree ing to deliver all of b wool to the association, where the wool is grad ed and sold direct to the mills In the east or wherever the market may ba. They expect to get from 20 to 35 cents for the different grades of wool this season, in all about 175, 000,000 pounds of wool und mohair. The eastern mills are beginning to Inquire for the'r season's wants and points In the county, and not her. house and get their wool In this car. This is to he the last carload shipped this season from this coun ty, and the members who did not ship In the other cars should got their wool la this car, otherwise they will have to ship ther wool by local trelght. .This is another advantage In Joining state wide associations The wool can be pooled und shipped in car lots. CITY OF - ASHLAND By DAVID ELSWORTH Oh! Beautiful city of Ashland, Oh! Beautiful town of the west, Nestling close neuth the mountains. Like a babe on its mother's breast. It is surrounded by hills and valleys, It Is bordered with flowers of gold, Its streets are marvels of beauty, And Us future cannot be foetold. Its parks are all built by nature No man can their beuuty excel; And tho sparkling streams from the hillside Each have its own secret to tell. Its people are pleasant and happy, The latch-string hangs outside its door; It welcomes the rich and the poor alike, And they camp on its carpeted floor. It is entered by both rail and wagon, Aud its roads reach out far and wide; Us backyards are filled with tourists As they traverse its green moun tain side. The stranger Is always made wel come, As he stops this fair city to view, Ho Is given the best and treated right As be on his way passes through.

Philip rorreste, one of the most during criminals on the Pacific roast, who escaped from the county jail last winter by hitting Jailer Moses over the head with a stick or wood, has been brought buck from Seattle. Wash., by Sheriff C. E. Terrill, to auswer to a charge of attempted mur der. He was iirsl arrested for en deavoring to pass a forged check upon John Goodrich of the' Toggerv Forrester give tiie sheriff no trou ble on the way south, but be was heavily handcuffed. Jailer Moses accompanied the party. J-orrester told the story of his escape last winter, and revealed the heretofore unknown Information that In hi flight from Jacksonville, a bullet fired by Jailer Moses nipped him In the muscles of the right leg, causing blm to bleed freely. He rode the blind baggage to Sacra- mentn, Calif., and traveled into east ern Oregon by way of Nevada, and roamed around the northwest until captured by the Seattle police. While in jail awaiting the arrival of Sheriff Ten-Ill, a jailbreak was engineered by prisoners wanted for bank robbery in Portland, in which Forrester came within an aca of again flying the coop. With the bank bandits, Forrester climbed to an areaway. One of the fugitives picked an Oregon boot wltb a hairpin. He dropped the heavy boot, which hit Forrester on t the shoulder, und knocked him back Into jail. On the way back Sheriff Terrltl lodged Forrester in the Douglas county jail at Roseburg for a short atay. . Coming through Centralia, Wash., Sheriff Terrill and Forrester saw a man on the depot platform that tal lied with Dr. Brumfleld, the dentist. wanted for the sensational murder of a homesteader last week. As soon as the Roseburg reporters showed them a picture of tho missing man, they identified him as the one they had seen at Centralis. It was In'thls town that Roy Gardner, the mall sack robber, was captured, after thrilling escape. WATER AND LIT1IIA PARK ATTRACT MANY TOURISTS TO ASHLAND Few people of Ashland realize the vast number of tourists who visit their town during the summer months. Many are of the drifting population who stay nowhere In par ticular, htit the majority are at tracted by the wonderful water that Is to he found here, together with the delightful climate that makes Ashland known along the entire coast. Nowhere oa the Pacific highway is a camp ground made more at tractive or sanitary to the traveling public, neither Is there to be found a more competent or courteous sup erintendent than the Llthia Park em ploye to look after her guests. There is on an average of sixty cars arriving dally, quartered at the camp grounds, with an estimate of four people to each car. It would be of much Interest to keep u season record of all visitors, und each driver should be required to register, giv ing number of occupants in bis car. A touring party from Ohio stop ped over for a few days rest, and the admirable means ot their trans portation attracted much attention It being a tiny bungalow on wheels with every modern equipment. Children from the camp grounds are always made welcome at tho play grounds and It might be of in terest to name a few from u distance arriving recently: George Clark. Qulncy, Calif.; Elmer Lester, Sara toga, Wyo.; Lois Goodman, Seattle, Wash.; Edwin and Francis Moore. San Diego, Calif.; Virginia Salsbury. Pasadena, Calif.; Edna and Joan Dunn, Spokane, Wash.; Marjorle Stout, Portland; Edna Greathotise. EI Reno, Okla. Mrs. J. W. Kent and daughter, of Medford, also Mrs. M. H.

Mrs. Herndon is one of the en thusiastic play ground workers ot the city, and several times each week a number of children are brought in her car for an afternoon ot enjoy ment. A delightful luncheon was served at the picnic ground Wednesduy ev ening. Jesse Wlnburn und party of friends, from "Sap-u.'iul-SaJMn-the-Woods," were the guests of honor. A delegation of thirty from the Christian church In Medford met in Llthia Park for a picnic supper and business meeting afterwards. The Parent-Teachers association have placed an elegant 16x20 cement sand box In the play grounds. Whtn completed It will contain four feet ot tine white sand. "A thing of beuu ty Is a joy forever" to the kiddies. The feature of greatest Interest at the present time is the swimming class at the natatorlutu, given under the management of the play ground supervisor, und is open to every child of Asliland. The class is conducted every Wednesday afternoon, begin ning at 2:30. , No charge is made for lessons. Mr. Rolne has made n special rate of 25 cents each, includ ing towel aud suit, for udmiUance into the pool, and has kindly donated the services ot a swimming lnstruc tor as a season's gift to the chil dren of the play ground. Owing to misunderstanding or lack ot knowl edge of conditions of the natutorlum a word of explanation ut this time may not be amiss. The pool Is it rectangular one, varying in depth from two to eight feet aud contains 35,000 gulloiu of water. It is emp tied, scrubbed, sterilized aud re filled twice each week, the tilling process requiring one und a half hours. The normal temperature. Is 64 degrees; It is Is heated to, and maintained at a temperature of 80. This is pure, soft spring water, and contains sulphur und magnesia. All towels and suits used are thoroughly cleansed and sterilized under oleum pressure and son dried. All bath ers are required to pass tinder the shower before entering the pool. A rigid adherence to the rules of sani tation Is insisted upon, regardless of any objections. The attendance and progress ot the class has been very remarkable. We 'cordially In vite parents to visit us In all our work and are glad ot any sugges tions or douations they muy see fit to offer that may further the inter ests of the children. The best that is within one V none too good to give to the profession or the work in which one is engaged. As a provider of exercise, the pur suit of happiness probably takes first place.

It is fast anchored to the rug-.-eii shore. Trust not your heart, ihe cull I! hears is false. An endless grave in dcpthless deep-; awuits your soul. We are the guardians of a priceless gom. No Indian warrior yet has crossed the tide. Turn buck we warn you. Life is still your own, But touch the ship, und we will plunge you In the foam, Foam of a fear, deep, dark and drear That holds you from your maiden fair. (b) A trio of evil spirits Join the chief in warning the lover aud af firming that love will not move the ship. Tenth. Chorus description of the lover s voyage Oh, see, he's gone! The Phantom ship is sailing off. Oh, feel the roll of the mountain's mighty heart; 'Oh, bear the frightful shriek ef the spirits of the deep! They toss the ship, the writers whip. 'Ob, see the lightning flush of the demon's dart! Oh, see the spirits strike at his sing- ling heart 'Ob, hear the maiden's call come clearly o'er the sea! Oh, see the Phantom ship move soft ly on the blue! Love calls, love culls, iove conquers fear! He sails, he sails! ' Eleventh. Duet for lover and maiden arranged for both: The Phantom ship hag crossed the, tide And brought the lover to his br d--. The demons dark of doubt and fear The water's wave has washed away. No more can they our love assail. No more will love e'er hear their wail. The snow to white, the waters blue. Will ever guard a love so true, So, come, my love, dance with du Hght, Dunce to the joy of love und life. We two will live, we two will live, With love alway, with love alway. Over the streuras and the mountains True love bag culled to true love. Over the toss of the waters True love hus unswered true love. Heart close to heart in our joy. dear, Home on our mystic isle. Only the stars and the waters, deep blue The snow sifting down and the moon - peeping through the tail stately trees and the wec-i tiny birds Will hear the love words I whisper tu you, ' The ages through, the ages through. Twelfth. Chorus description of the Phantom ship sailing back to Its place.' The departure of the van quished evil spirits. The unlet wa ters and the birds singing of love triumphant.

Away out west, where love Is best Two hearts that drifted long Have iinehured on their mystic isle And sing the age-old song. A song uf love, aud life und youth, And nothings lovers tell. So to his heart may he clasp his love And ever with her dwell. Tho following children took pari 1n the 'Maiden of the Luke" Melboruu Mast.

'The Tractor will enable the farmer to work fewer hours in the day, giving him more time to enjoy life. I believe the trac tor will make farming what it ought to be the mout pleasant, the most healthful, the most profitable business on earth'." This tractor has done much very much in bringing true Mr. Ford's prophecy; for in it is a machine which has harnessed one of the most dependable, efficient, adaptable, economical sources of power in the world a machine that saves from thirty to fifty per cent of the farmer's time a machine which many farmers claim plows, harrows or drills as much ground in the same time as four, six or even eight horses. And more a machine that takes care of every power job on the farm. Call and let's talk it over, or telephone or drop us a card and we will bring the facts to you.
