On the eighth of this month Mrs. Jenkins received his lodge receipts and some other papers belonging to him from the secretary of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows lodge at Grants Pass. In quiry develops that the papers were found near the railroad track. At least they were handed to a woman in Grants Pass by a man who said he found them by the track. Mr. Jenkins Is a prosperous er.

Asked how that would suit, the youngster said it would be flne.tbut after a few min utes of reflection he said: "Dad, I wish Doc Loughrldge would bring me a pony, if it is all the same to him." As the little brother had already ar rived, the doctor refused to substi tute, so the pony will have to await his next visit. At the ljund Producta Show H. E.

GRANTS PASS AND MEDFORD TO MEET ' NEXT SATURDAY Saturday will be a great day at tho local high school, as on that date tho football team will moot the Mod- ford team on tho high school uold, this being tho first of tho tutor scholastic games to bo played In this city. Taking the game pluyed at Medford as a criterion, Saturday should see a great contest, and our boys are confident that victory will be theirs this time. After the locals have played both tho Medford aud Ashland teams the newspapers of the latter city give the Grants Pass team credit for being bettor than tho Mod- ford team, and the players here are dotermluod to prove that It Is. The valley championship Is not yet lost to Grants Pass If the team can make the right showing from now on. The boys have been putting In full time at practice, as have also the rooters who will lend tho players loyal suit- port.

Groat Urlt- aln's offer of the Islaud of Cyprus to Greece for her aid In the Iialkau op erations probably will not be suttl cient to obtain King Constantino's consent to alter his position of arm ed neutrality. It Is, however, the first advance In tho way of a proffer which the allies have made to the Balkans. If tho principle Is continued Greece and Roumanla will evuutual- ly receive their full, price. Heretofore the allies' bids have beeu assurances that the Ualkaus could keep what they conquered. The risk, however, was theirs. That Is why the allies failed in their nego tiations with the llalkau capltols. The Greeks might engage on the allies' side tf tmmodlnto possession of southorn Albania were added to tho Cyprus offer. This would mean that Italy would have to sacrifice Al banla, but it must uow bo apparent to the allies that their military posi tion will necessitate some sacrifices Russia may realUo that she will have to pay for Routuania's partlci pation in advance. To do this she possibly will offer Hesaarabla, and Itoumanla hardly could resist such a temptation. Thus the Balkan situation may again change, and derisively. FRUITDALE R. R.
