Mr. Hartley had ship ped his motorcycle here from Denver, and when he took It out ot the ex press office he wanted to see that It was still in running order. It was. Hartley took a spin up Sixth street, and upon the perfect pavement he failed to notice that he was taking on too much speed. The policeman thought he was hitting It nil at about 25 miles an hour, however, and as the peace and dignity of the munici pality is disturbed when a gas wagon goes faster than 15 miles, Mr. Hart ley was. flagged and Introduced to Judge Basler.

J. Brown, who Uvea on the upper Applegate. . Mr. Brown came to town Wednesday with a load of the succu lent vegetable which he had grown on his ranch, and the heads of the plant were as solid and handsome as any shipped Into the local market during the season. Mr. Brown plant ed only a quarter of an acre of the broccoli, and his receipts from this small tract will be over $50, or at the rate of $200 per acre. lie has marketed some of the crop In Med ford, the load Wednesday being the first brought to Grants Pass. The heads were solid and bleached out as white as snow, though Mr. Brown said that they seemed to be some what later In heading than he had expected, Just recently having come to marketable condition. This may tie because of the variety, though It Is believed that Rogue valley broc coli may be several days later than that grown tn the ITmpqua valley, which has a lower altitude. A sample head of the home-grown broccoli can be seen In the Courier window. BASERAU, TODAY 4 American Philadelphia 8 4 3 Boston 8 9 0 Ray, Richardson and Meyers; Shore and Agnew.
