I have written for Tho Medford Mail

that there are several changes in

drink and candy shop, as it -Is situ

Another .very important, and to
some of us ploneor settlers very se
rlous move, is the tearing down and
removing of the old Eagle Hotel that
has stood -aa an old land mark for
many years, and I understand, altho
I have not seen the owner, or-any of
the family -since I reached home, that
tho plan is to remove tho old build'
ings and build a neat bungalqw that
will be an ornament to tho place .and
greatly Improve that part - of tho
town.
