WOODVILIE HAS
MUSIC EPIDEMIC
Little Town Evidently Suffers From
Too Much Melody Brass Band
Starts and Enterprising Firm Ships
in Carload of Phonographs.
ELK TO BE FIRST
TO MEET TEDDY
Member of Detroit Lodge, No. 34, B.
P. 0. E., Will Meet Roosevolt at
Gangplank and Ask Him to Attend
Elks Rcuniin in Detroit.
Woodvlllo la evidently suffering
the tormonta of Hndcs it tho follow
ing graphic account of conditions in
that city la r.ny criterien:
To tho Editer: Aforetime vro haTo
heon very qulot, easy going. Con
tented, and thoroforo happy, little
municipality, seeking nolthor notori
ety, ostentation nor trouble, but now
we have tho trinity In a most ogra
vated form. First camo along tho
comet and most scared tho wits out
of us, then after our nervous prostra
tion was slowly subsiding, some Hy-as
Mesacho TilPkum said let us havo a
brass band. Moses and tho Angelsl
Has it over been your misfortune to
be subjected to tho dov er I mean
tho dulcet notes of a brass band in
its cmbryoio stage in its very in
ciploncy? No. Well, don't The
nerve-Jolting bquo.i1 of a B flat horn
In the hands or a farmer would raise
hair on a bald hair trunk. Then tho
amateur who pulls and shoves a fow
notes the length of your arm out of
a trombone would mako a man swear
In meetln', but tho most unkind cut
of all Is tho villain who pushes wind
Into that big cadaverous bass horn,'
notes from which go down a thousand
leagues under the sea. sending a chill
vibration up yotr splno and cold drops
of perspiration stands ?.U over you as
the hideous dam-on!ac contortion of
sound overwhelms and terrifies you;
It's a sound halt way betweer a wall
of woo and death pulling eternity out
of a well. Ono redeeming feature,
however, is, the band has to stop part
of the time. The citizens wcro all up
in arms and had decided to swear out
an Injunction. Everybody seemed
willing to ass!s. in the swoarlng part.
Then we all decided wo would grin
and bear Just a few more days and
rights until our city officials could
quality, when lol county court could
not ratify until July! Holy smoko!
The news camo like a last year's road
tax. Then, O horrors! What worse
calamity could befall death and de
struction, crop failures and taxes.
Why, Jones & Palmer have shipped In
a carload of phonographs.
Graves of our ancestorc! Angels
and Ministers of Peace! Tho weird
sisters three and King John, graves
and epitaphs! With rainy eyes we
writo cuss words on the bosom of tho
earth. Thluk of a. carload of phono
graphs and 1750 records, all in ono
key, seeming all alike but different!
They aro all lined up on tables,
shelves, etc., witl. three energetic at
tendants kecking as many cranked up
as possible, and when you aro about
naif a milo away you can pick out of
the pan dam-onium a few songs like
these, "When This Cruel War Is
Over," "Mary Ann, I'll Tell Your Ma,"
"Home Was Never Like This," "Old
Black Joe," "I'll Kill You With an
Ax,' and "Hell Is Better Than This,"
with several hundred moro quite as
appropriate as these. They work on
tho samo principle as Interest and
taxes and tho mouth of a river open
nights. They start up at 4 a. m. and
when wo retire but not to sleep at
311 p. m. that dov or infer er, I
mean well, you know the rest Is
still going.
Well, half tho population has taken
.their tents liko tho Arab and

Shasta County Man Is Most Suc
cessful With Hunting Leo in the
Siskiyous Making Good Money
SACRAMENTO, Cal., Juno 13.
When a man gets to making S100 a
month shooting mountain lions it
looks as.thou-A tho sport ceases to be
mere fun, but a business proposition.
At least such is tho case with L. P.
Boye3 of Henderson, Shasta county,
who received 100 of good stato money
tor slaying f'vo mountain lions and
cashing the scalps for $20 each.
The lions were killed on Camper
down creek In Shasta county. The
first was shot on May S, tho second
on May 11. The day following tho
third one was bagged, while tho
fourth was broug'ht down on tho 14 th
Tho last was 3laln on May 18, bring
ing tho killings within such a period
that Boyes could say he ran do $10 a
day for ten days' shooting. Tho rest
of tho month apparently was not do-
voted to Hon killing.
State Controller Nye drew a war
rant for ?360 yesterday to meet tho
expenses of eighteen lion scalps ox
changed with tho California flch and
gamo commission for tho beasts
killed during May. Aside from tho
Shasta county hunrter, there were no
great klllla. Tho remnlnlnr hunt
ers were widely scattered throughout
tho state.
A home run, the first lor the sou-
sou on Mod ford grounds, another
wallop that lucked but a few inches
of gointr over tho fence mul four dou
ble plays, together with a lot of bone
head work by each toam, kept the
fans cheering or swearing alternate
ly Sunday. It wns a good game at
that, and nobody had a cinch
Colemau started by walking Ennis
and tho first double occurred when
Qaskins hit a fly to Henselmnn, who
threw Ennis out before ho could
scramble back to first. Anderson
hit, but was caught napping off first
by a throw from Colemnu. No runs,
one hit.
Medford started with a hit by Hen
selnian. Strain sacrificed. Miles hit
for two bags, scoring Ilcnschunu.
Isaacs singled through first and he
and Miles scored on Bcebe's hit.
Colemnu struck out and Antcl flew
to second. Three runs, four hits.
Jacksonville went out in the second
iu oue-two-threo order. Wilsou flow
to left, Strain, Miles to Bccbe; Dun

Medfonl accumulated another ace
in their half of the second. With
two down, Henselmnn wns safe on
Smith's error, stole second and came
home on Strain's single. Strain was
caught trying to steal second.
Jacksonville scored first in tho
third. Dunford flew to Antel. Smith
hit safely. Melntyre was safe on a
fielder's choice. Another fielder's
choice and some woodeu-hended pluy
iug allowed Smith to cross the pan
nnd Melntyre followed him on Gas
kins' rightfield hit, which shouldn't
have been a hit at nil.
Jacksonville scored again in the
fourth three times. Strain made a
scratch hit. Duncan was safe on a
fielder's choice. Dunford flew to
right and Strain beat the throw home.
Smith fanned. Melntyre was safo on
Henselman's error nnd scored on hits
by Ennis and Qaskins. Three scores,
making five in nil.
Medford scored in the first, second,
third, fourth nnd sixth innings. It
was in the fourth that Strain, with
Henselmnn on first, lifted the ball
over the left field fence for four bags,
chasing the Pretzel over the pan in
front of him.
