ffiL'icnUforon. performance of 'In
ford theater. J
In brief, Uio story of "Tbo Ameri-1 Hnyti" at the Medford theater, Fn
can Lord" is that of John Brouetor, da y, February IS, and a punrnnteo
a North Dakotan, who is about to be
nominated for congress, when he
lpnms that tln-oujrh the death of Lord
- ,
Breuster he has becomo heir to tno
title and elates of the fine old Kin-
ltsh house. He gives up his ideasnf
going to Washington, and, although
having little likinjr for some of tho
ways of the English, crosses the
ocean to claim his own. With his
hereditary feud with tho houso of
Wyeherly and his good-natured at
tempts to introduce his American
methods of doing things, Breuster
fads himself folly occupied. Imag
ine his feelings, then, when he dis
covers that his daughter nud the sun
of Lord Wyeherly are in love, and
that his son has lost his heart to an
girl! Breuster makes it
"three of a kind" by tailing in love
with an attractive Irish widow. Mrs.
Wcstbrooke, and the story ends most
happily.
"The American Lord" is one of tho
brightest, most wholesome of the
stage offerings in recent years, and
the excellent company will give it the
rendition it deserves. The part of
John Breuster is in the hands of
Charles B. ITanford, one of the
strongest actors on the American
stage, and in it he is said to have
found one of the most sympathetic
roles of his artistic career. The Irish
widow of the piece is Mis Marie
Drofnah. a charming and accomplish
ed actress who has been MrVlIau
f ord's leading woman in Shakespear
ean Darts for several years. The
supporting company has been care
iully chosen, and includes a number
of players who have successfully ap
peared with Mr. Hanford in the past.
The production will be both elaborate
and complete.
Whether tho thing thai interests
you today is a hair net or a hat pin,
a parlor suit or a pillow top, the store
ads will be worth reading.

HIS INTRODUCTION -IS
SOME EXCITING
First Time Pioneer Saw Jacksonville,
Man Killed Almost Under
Horse's Fcot, 53 Years Ago.
Fift'y-tliiee years ago, February
1857, I drove into Jacksonville for
the first time," said 1). J. S. I'carcc.
!"I was looking for some relatives,
the ('numbers family, and halted in
front of tho Table Rock saloon, thou
conducted by the late lleriuiiu
Helms.. While 1 was talking with Mr.
llclius an inquiring about the proper
direction to take, 1 heard a shut be
hind mo and a mnu reeled out of the
rivs -troet m trout oi wo present
town hall and fell almost under my
horses' feet. I was used to tho vet
at that time, but I must confess. in.v
first live minutes in Jacksonville
were exciting. Tho man killed was
Jack Driscoll, and he was shot by
Walt Williams because he knew too
much about the lawlcsi. operations of
Williams and his gang. Williams es
caped and was never heard fronr for
yenrs, until he was seen in Idaho. He
afterward met the Usual fate of the
early-day bad man. What called my
nCTcution to this almost forgotten
story was that the 5th of February,
1857, was n day ns nearly like the
5th of February, 1910, as you could
make them. The events of the day
impressed the weather upon my juen
ory." RAILROADS Fl RATE

flying machine In all its variety, that
of Paulhan. the Wright brothers and
several other kinds, linn at lust been
recognized by the rallrondB as an ar
ticlo of commerce and shipment. Tho
western clntuilltcntlon committee,
which has Jurisdiction over nil the
roads between Chicago and tho Pa
cific const, has Just decided to put
these machines in its tariff schedule.
For purposes of shipment, they
have been rated as double first-class
articles. Thjs means it will cost $C
per 100 pounds to ship them In whole
or in part. across the continent.
This action has been taken by the
officials because of the numerous In
quiries they have been receiving as to
what It would cost to ship the ma

lowing the so-called "boycott" of itn

grew out of the hatters' strike of last
