Mr. Guy Gans and sister, Mrs. A. F
I'nlm of Grants IMss wcra bucsIs hero
Tuesday nlKlit on their way up to LaUd
creek to visit their motucr. airs. uai-
Ida.
. Smith and Wamslcy have completed
the building to be known ns the town
hall and lockup, and now If tho marshal
does not do business arid clear the
streets of something besides hay,
horses and bulls he will have- to show
tho reoBon why. When asked why he
did not take In some of tho 16 drunks
that Infested our town tho ntcht that
tho council decided to grant license to
have; a saloon, how he said that ho had
no place to putthem but now ho has
no excuso of that kind.
Joseph Rlloy has taken the contract
to grade a new street running from tho
railroad track out to- tho main road and
ho and. his son-in-law, Mr. Hays, are
pushing the work right along to comple
tion. Ono con now hear tho sound of the
dW and hammer all around. Frank
I.uwIb haB near completion a two-story
building about 25x20 feet designed for
a confectionary and soft drink estab
lishment In tho lower story and tho up
per story will bo used tor a pool nnd
bllllurd room. M. U Daly has aboil)
completed his new house and has moved
his family into tho rear end nnd Is

a kind of general notion store. Mr. John

and convert them into a general dry
goods nnd grocery store, and after tho
first of May tho dancing portion of our
community will have to go somewhere
ulse to danco for Mr. and Mrs. George
W. Daly, sr., are planning to open up a
store In tho building now used as a
dance lin'l and I urn credibly informed
that somo of our local capitalists and
some of tho Medford capitalists nro to
open up n bank hero. I understand that
tho proposition to erect a hotel so ns to
have a saloon hero has about bieathed
its last, and tho promoters have about
given up thoidea as an unprofitable un
dertaking. Mr. M. F. Steward has completed his
dwelling houso but Is still beautifying
his yard and surroundings. lie, or
rather they, Mr. and Mrs. Steward, are
dotermlncd to have as nlco a yard as
can bo found in southern Oregon.
Wo ha vo lmi rather unusual excite
ment In our little town tho puBt week.
Las Sunday' tho 23d Inst,, two women
met out on thu desert about a mllo north
of town and had a regular knock down
and drag out tlmo of It. Whereupon
Chris Wooly nppenred before his honor,
Judge Watklns, and demanded a war
rant for tho nrrcst of Mrs. Walter Woods
on tho chargo of assault with a danger
ouh weapon,- to wit, a rock, with tho In
tent to bodily Injury to his wife, Mis.
Margaret Wooley. Tho warrant was Is
sued and placed In tho hands of our
deputy .sheriff, Hoy Aslipolo and ho made,
thearrest, and sho was released on her
own recgnlzance. Tho examination Is to
bo held on Wednesday afternoon nt 3
afternoon at 3 o'clock. Prof. P. H. Dolcy
was appointed as special deputy district
nttorney to attend to tho caso on be
half of the state and Walter 'Woods, tho
defendant's husband, acted for tho de
fense There wore but threo witnesses
called for tho prosecution, Dr. Holt be
ing the most important as ho was called
to dress tho wounds. There were three
witnesses called for the defense hut two
of them, the Castor boys, knew nothing
about tho affair. After hearing tho &v1
denco his honor bound tho defendant
over to tho grand jury In the sum of
$300 and her husband and his mother,
Mts. John Hurt, went on her bonds.
There wns iiilto a largo crowd assem
bled, to hear tho caso tried and tlio gen
crul opinion seemed to bo that It was
a put up Job to assault thu old wo
man, for sho In about GO years of agv,
while tho assailant Is about '.'5. One
embarrassing feature of the affair was
that the defendant Is u sister of tho Justice.

"When I Was a Young Man"
there were no such comforts as the General Elec
tric Luminous Radiator to warm an old man's
blood on a chilly morning. Wood fires and the
sooty, smelly oil stoye still used by many people,
were a poor substitute for the genial glow of
electric lamps.
Electric Light is a Boon
which every household can afford to enjoy and
which every thoughtful housewife will insist upon
having in her home. It is not merely a question of
convenience. Health and eyesight a,re involved.
Electric light does not consume oxygen in your
rooms. Consider what that means in the way of
pure air indoors.
Let us tell you how you can enjoy these advantages.
