Such a mine was unearthed in the fall by a group of Medford men, J. H. Fredricks, John and George Tucker and Robert Stillman. Located on the upper extreineties of Little Applegate at the mouth of Jack’s creek on Glade fork, the digging, which the men have re named The Ix>st Mine, yields ore rating $70 per ton, Mr. Fredricks said. In digging out an old shaft the men found nuggets as large as their fingernails. Work on a tunnel is in progress now. An old cabin, suggesting some body’s ambition years ago, is lo cated on the claim. In it is a chair made of manzanita wood. Carvings on the piece of furniture in the shape of faces, animals and snakes led Mr. Fredricks to believe that innumerable people have visited the cabin at some time. He expects to put this bit of antiqury on display at the Medford Chamber of Com merce soon. For a short time past Mr. Fred ricks’ three companions have re mained at Medford where they own small orchards. Mr. Fredricks has stayed on the claim alone working his tunnel until Sunday. Hitting a rock which retarded his progress, he decided to go to Medford for a few days. The men have built a new cabin on their holdings w’hich are under four feet of packed snow. About the only diversion in this mountain soli tude is the cougar’s cry. COMMERCE DANCES HAVE ADDITIONAL MUSICIAN the man’s very lean teatures. Gus- tav Inkblotch did this for us.

Saturday evening dances which have been held in the old U. S. ho tel weekly have constantly been gaining in popularity. So much so, according to H. H. Farley, floor manager, as to warrant adding an other piece to the snappy orchestra, a saxophone, making this undoubt edly the best music-producing group in the valley. Last week’s dance proved to be the most remunerative affair for some time, netting a fair margin for the chamber of commerce, man ager and players. Mrs. Ben Coff man has been busy this week re decorating the hall for Saturday’s dance.
