JOKE 1ST SIOP
SAYS FIRE CHIEF
Chiefs Elliott and Adams ot tho fire
and police department respectively
call attention that any irarson sending
in a false alarm of fire will be prose
cuted. There is a city ordinance Im
posing a heavy penalty for such an
offense.
The last false alarm was sent in by
telephone last Wednesday night at
7:16 o'clock when a message was re
ceived by the fire department stating
there was a fire at 25 North Peach
street The firemen, who had just re
turned from the roof blaze at the
Knight home on the east side, knew
that there was no sucli number on
Peach Btreet, but could take no
chances and hence the fire apparatus
was sent to that neighborhood where
no trace of fire was gained.
Chief Elliott then began a hunt to
trace the origin of the false alarm and
finally traced it down to Richard
Adams, a 14 year old youth who re
sides with his parents in the Holland
apartments. The lad confessed that
he had sent In the call by phone from
a neighboring apartment in the build
ing. Ho could not state just what Im
pelled him to do it, but said that he
had never sent in a false alarm before,
and never would again.
Chiefs Elliott alnd Adams and tho
boy's father gave him a good verbal
dressing down and warning.. No ar
rest was mado because of young
Adams' youth and the fact that it was
his first offense.
EAGLE POINT EAGLETS

AT PAGE TONIGHT
Walker Whiteside and splendid
New York company will appear nt the
Page theatre tonight in "The Hindu."
The story is told in the confines of
Prince Tamar's royal palace in faroff
Somnouth, India, where various vil
lains assemble to lay their plans for a
bloody rebellion. Their deep laid
schemes are'folled, however, by an an
intrepid band of Scotland Yard de
tectives, led by a lovely young English
girl. The great diamond "Moonstone"
which has been stolen from the sacred
"Moon God's" forehead, is recovered
in time to prevent the natives from
rising In their wrath and killing every
white person In remote Somnouth.
Weird and bizarre electric effects
serve to break down the nerve of the
rascals, and the final curtain descends
j upon the miscreants in thb trap which
ltna haan nlavarlv bM for tlinm.
Mr. Whiteside has never had a char
acter to portray which he enjoys act
ing as much as he does Prin,ce Tamar.
Miss Shields, his lovely leading lady,
lias been happily cost as the heroine,
and Miss Grant Miss Johns, Mr. Vos
burgh, Mr. De Decker, Mr. Sherman,
and the Hindu wonder workers, Pa
zumba nnd Desylva, all have charac
ters to enact which they love to ap
pear in. '
Jesse Wlnburn of Ashland was a
Medford visitor this afternoon.
