The ceremonies will follow the ar rival of the delegation of I. O. O. F. grand lodge officials and delegates from Ashland. This delegation will arrive in Medford via South Oakdalo to Main and pass through Main to the cemetery. It Is expected there will be about 1000 members of tho order in the line, accompanied by the brass bands whk'h will be in attendance at the grand lodge session; ' . - Tho program is as follows: Music : D.

Benediction Itov. 12. P. Lawrence Judge A. M. Thomas, master of Cere monies. Following these services the visitors will return to Ashland by somo route which will give them a glimpse of some of the orchard districts in this part of the valley. The mausoleum will occupy a com manding slto in the cemetery and will bo of such lines and proportions and architectural design as will readily ap peal to tho eye and sentiment. It will contains from 250 to 300 crypts. Tho structure will cost about $100,000. Tho idea of laying away the dead in such a manner as provided by mauso leums is one that has a strong appeal. It does away with that part of the last sad rites which have a touch' of horror. Tho, dead are entombed above ground, in vaults or crypts, where the consuming process of time will reduce tho body to ashes and thero repose in undisturbed security in a final resting place as lasting ns thoi hills. This sopulcher will always be an imposing and ornamental feature of tho ceme tery, and Its own environment will at tend It with sacredness and dignity. Many material improvements have been made in and about the cemetery during the pnst year, and It is the aim of those in charge to contluc such Im provements as to make it a really at tractive spot. The addition of the mauslocum will greatly enhance tho landscape effect of tho cemetery it is believed. . The Screen 1 Hy Te Press Agent. , Unusual Ilm Tomorrow. The name of tho great Italian poet Dante Alighleri Is known to almost o very one and is associated with his greatest work, which, for want of a bdtter term, is called Divine Comedy," or, in Italian, Dlvina Commedla. The "Divine Comedy" is composed of three trrnat . (llloirorlcal noema; '-'Inferno." "Purgatory" .and "Paradise," whiehf describe the ' great poet's journey through, tho' -realm of the Hereafter. Although his works, according to Kn- cyclopedia Urittannlca. Includo seventy-eight genuine poems, eight doubt ful and fifty-four spurious, tho Di vine Comedy is by far tho best known and by it alono Dante holds placo as one of the half dozen greatest writers of all time. Upon the poem "Diferno" has been based tho motion picture of that namo which has been based the motion pic ture of that name which will be seen at the liialto three days beginning to morrow matinee, and which has been creating something of a furore throughout the country. , " "flold llcrls" Is Kxelttng.
