AUSTIN TELLS
OF HISTORY OF
MAUSOLEUMS
In telling nhuut the modem com
mniiity ninu&oleuius, its origin in
Amciicu mill its growth Senator Aus
tin told in any interesting tilings and
showed pictures on the bcroou to il
lntinic his lecture ns lie went nloug.
Among the fcounlor's hlidcs arc quite
n number of Crater Lake nu the
geographical society's trip up there
this summer. Those pictures will be
shown nil tluough the cast ns well
as on this const.
In speaking of the lake last night
the senator said "it's wonderful,
nothing else can express it."
Some of tho remarks of the sena
tor's lecture on "The Better Way"
were as follews:
Mere cemeteries nre nt best only
temporary burial places.
Within ten yenrs 200.000 dead
have been distutbed in the city of
Philadelphia alone. In instances now
of court record, 18,000 dead were re
moved nl tho contract price of 09
cents ench, and 12,000 dend were re
turned from another location nt one
dollar each, und the question may
suggest itself to you, "what kind of n
reinterment could bo secured at ft dol
lar n body, or CD cents, when the
grave was to be opened and a tomb
stone or monument to be carted a
lone distance nnd a new grave
made?" Vet this is jutt what has
been doen all over this land of ours,
and a great dent more of it will be
done in the near future. Do not
think that the country graveyards or
the cemeteries in the smaller towns
nre lcs subject to neglect and dese
cration than they arc in the large
citicK it is quite tho order of
things everywhere.
The community idea of the ccmc
icry 's put under roof nnd behind
stone walls and bronze grates in the
community mausoleum. Nobody
seems to object to the community
idea in the graveyard, though it be
still more common nnd less exclusive,
but there the holes in the ground, the
foliage nud flowers, the grass and
shrubbery enfold tjll, hide all, the
mold, the damp, the frost nnd the
decay, all beneath the sod, nud out
of sight, out of mind and heart,
while in the community mausoleum a
snow-white tomb, marble corridors,
sunlight and flowers, dry end habit
able in tho winter ns in the summer,
no mud, no rain, no exposure, no
suggestion or uncanny thought of
the grave or its horrors, plain enough
lor tho humblest, exclusive enough
for tho richest, beyond the each of
tho careless or (ho wilful and for-
ever cunrded bv innsd uullu mull
strong doors against tho invasion of
the greedy, and by the strong arm of,
tho law ngnuist the vnmlnlisin of nil 1
the future, renders the tomb in a coin-
niunity mausoleum today, as it did'
under Pericles and und the Caesars, '
the surest, the most reveientiul and
the most religious disposal of the
sacred dead.
Death is certain, and in the mid.st
of life nothiuc should prevent the
head of u family from making this
wiso provision long before the sug
gestion of a great sorrow. It ought
to be a blessed privilege to be able
to make these sacred arrangements
while in health and prosinrity, while
tho mind and. heart are fieo to con
template the -ways nud means and
the place where to establish n funtilv
memorial.
L. W. Zimmer nnd Geo. L. Trcich-
ler an now ready to take the sub
scriptions of people who nre remix to
subscnb as only the compartment
are built for the people who actually
subscribe in ndvnnce. These gentle
men will be glad to give nuy one full
information upon the subject. They
have opened, an office nt 218 East
Main street, next to Stnr theater,
where plain and specification?- of the
Medford building will he exhibited
and where they xxill be found every
day. The building for Medford will
be built on the knoll on the south side
of the I. O. O. F. cemetery just south
of the roadway as you enter. Quite
n number of pictures of the building
arc on exhibition in the stores about

We wish to express to you our sincere appreciation of the manner in which you accepted
the very unpleasant situation into which our failure to make gas thrust you. We were helpless

S. Rosenbaum and the Southern Pacific Railway Company for their assistance which enabled
us to resume operation so promptly.
We deeply regret our inability to serve you continually during the past week but take pleas-v
ure in assuring you that in the future we will be able to maintain uninterrupted service.
We realize that you may experience slight difficulty in operating your appliances for a few

promptly remedy same.
