How Some Visitors 5pei a NiM
in Medford.
Ringliug's circus was attended at
Medford on Saturday by a large crowd
of Southern Oregon people. The at
tendance, however, wai not uearly so
largo as it was last year at tho same
place. The towns of tho valley seemed
to contribute as many people but tho
more remote districts did not pour
forth the population that they did at
the time of the previous exhibition
txcursion tickets to the circus were
sold iu this city to the number of lid
and there was a very largo attendance
from Ashland.
The morning traiu was over three
hours lato and did uot leave Grants
Puss uutil after 1 o'clock in the after
noon. The pleasure seekers resigned
themselves to missing the parade, bat
hoped they would bo iu time to see
the show. If tho performance had be
gun ou time, all the visitors from
Grants Pass, Woodville, Gold Hill
aud Tolo would have boeu hopelessly
lute, but the circus management had a
scent of tho shekels eu route and the
uerforn.auce was delayed until after
the train arrived.
The hour of arrival being so late, a
number, of Grants Pass people stayed
over for the evening performance.
Others who attended the circus in the
afternoon were unable to get aboard
th evening train to return homo ou
account of luck of space. The cars
were crowded and jammed full to over
flowing Jand those of the waiting
throng who did uot fight their way ou
board were compelled to remain.
Some of them wore told by trnin men
to wait for the next sectiouj there
would be plenty of room ou that Af
ter the train had gone they found that
they would not be allowed to ride on
the third section.
So those who spent tho night in
Medford wero many. Tho hotel ac
commodations were greatly overtaxod
and tho demand for sleeping room was
fur iu advance of the supply. The
Ashland people went home on tho
night traiu which left about 1 o'clock
a. in.
Modford's saloon row. on the oppo
site sido of the street from tho depot,
did an immense business. There was
little disorder ou the streets, but the
interior of the saloons were filled with
surging crowds of meu iu all singes
and varieties of intoxication. The
doors wiro wido open and tho yells,
songs and profane mid indecent expres
sions of the drunken men, were plain-
'y audible at tho depot and all places
within a similar radius.
In tlio small hours of the night,
luiet began foreign. Tho hotcloltices
were filled with m en sleeping on
chairs and ou the floor. Tho depot
waiting room was a panorama of slum
borons attitude. Five men, horizontal
on the benches, occupied exactly half
of the seating spnro. The combined
length of tho sleejHTH would have ro-
1 11 1 nd still more space had they not
overlapped a trifle. Another young
man slept sitting bolt upright and
snored vociferously, with funny little
kicks of his feet and facial contortions
which amused, almost to hysterics,
those who, themselves unable to sloop.

Toward morning the depot lamp
burned out. Peoplo w ho had boeu for
tunate enough to find a placo to sleep
began to come in to bo in readiness for
thu early train. Iu tho darkness of
the depot, the benches appeared unoc
cupied except on exceedingly close
view, and tho slumberers had many
nairow escapes from being severely
at upon. Ono lady actually did sit
down upon a sleeping man's head, but
did not wako. He merely squirmed
and twisted his tu ck until she slipped
olT on the uueushioned Krtion of the
biiieli. He continued bis iKuccful
slumber.

MODERN METHODS
Distinguish These Suits and Overcoats
from the rest
Tho woolens used wholosalo from $2.00 to $3.00
per yard. Best quality Italian lining, satin
sleeves, silk sewed throughout. Custom tailors
uso tho same materials for their $35 and $40
suits and overcoats.
The most essential foaturo is how tho garments
look on you. With tho tailor you cannot toll
until you buy. Hero it is different. A pattern
for every tasto, and twice tho satisfaction at
half tho price.
