down to the table that he wa.5 tho
sixty-sixth that had eaten supper.
Why they wero as thick as flics
around a molasses barrel
It is not necessary for me to try ;o
give a write-up of what was dono as
that has already gone to tho public,
out l must add tnat there wero at
least three hundred visitors here that
night. At midnight, after tho lodge
of I. O. O. F. was organized and the
officers Intalled supper was announc
ed to bo given In Splkers hall. The
Ladles' Improvement club gave the

just throw the doors open and told

that he had never attended any that
would comparo with thnt one. Med

Ashland will likely bo selected as
the new homo of tho Bishop Scott
academy. The bid of tho enterpris
ing southern Oregon town la high
and it Is to bo expected that tho trus
tees of tho school will accept it. At
any rnto tho academy will bo lost
to Portland, and thnt very soon, says
tho Portland Journal.
In years gone by the state of Ore
gon established a normal school at
Ashland, afterward thought to be
ono of tho follios of legislative trad
ing. In order to get the school the
people of Ashland donated ton acres
of land aud other valuable consider
ations, nil on tho condition that tho
normal should bo maintained by tho
stato. Tho provision wisely iniulo
$'10,100, U hns been planned to es
tablish tho Hohobl on tho farm whero
model surroundings for boys could
bo provldoil. Now tho offer from
Ashland given opportunity to dispose
that should tho horinal school be of thu farm and use tho money for
abandoned by tho stato tho property
should revert to tho city of Ashland,
now orrors a solution or tho nosed
school problem, for tho vacant build
ings have become an eyesore to tho
unterprlslng people or Ashland who
feel that tho town Is bearing tho bur
den of follies not self-inflicted. So
an effort waa mado to get the Bishop
Scott academy trustees to tako tho
property and establish a school for
boys far from tho Influences of a
great city.
The school has Income bearing
property In Portland nnd 100 acres
of farm land near Yamhill, valued at
endowment purposes aud to equip
tho school to do thfl very bOHt until
of work.
No high grnilo boarding school for

on lllshop Scudding that tlio Episco
pal church oxorl every effort to ok
tubllMh such a m'hool, It Is conceded
that tho location should ho iioino dis
tance from a largo city, In ordor to

Ashland offers many needed advan
