It was Dr. Hubert Dolbey, noted phy sician of Caii o, KK.vpt. speaking nt today's lumlu'on meeting of the Jiolury club, held at the Hotel Med ford. The ICiiKlif hman advised toe nicmbei-H uf the medical profes sion to stay nway from Enypt if they want to make money, as must of the treatments are paid for by Kf ts uf bananas and other itKi ieiillural prod nets. "There are three hospital ships which travel up ami down the Nile at renulai- intervals, as, there are no roads in our country which are I'll tu travel. The vessels stop at the villages and patient a come to the ship fur attention, ' j Dr. Dolbey slated. In describing the relation of the medical profession to archaeologi cal discoveries in Kypt, the guest: told about an interesting epe- l ieueo in connection withi intim- jny, which was removed from the queens' cemetery, after being bur- j led 4000 years ngtf There were four women's bodies' in the graveyard. One of these ; was found to be that of u white person, while the others were black. Til is particular mummy was wrapped carefully, adorned with rich Jewels and elaborately tatoood. Dr. Dolbey ' w;ia par ticularly interested in the woman who very evidently was ; a favorite of an ancieni king. He j removed the mummy to a place , where lie could make a, detailed j study of it. No wrinkles marked the smooth skin, which even after j all those years showed that it j had been remarkably beautiful. ( The inscriptions on the tomb i were deciphered fur the Knglish-! man and It was discovered that j the woman was a much admired j type from Asia. Jler hair was j blonde and curly and perfectly j preserved, Dr. Dolbey related. j Hints on how to get along with ( wild animals of Africa and Kgypl j were given by the visiting guest, who i told about . a friend of his meeting a lion face to face in the elephant grass of Africa. The man was .accompanied by a gun boy who, instead of handmg the doctor a big gun, began run ning at top speed, leaving his companion without arms. "A. lion , will not ordinarily attack u human unless his cubs are mo lested or he has been Injured in fomc way. This particular Hon had been hurt. He crouched td spr. ng at tho man, who put up his knee in order that he could protect his stomach, Dions always aim at that part of their prey. The lion broke the bones in hla ltnee. Not content with that, ho aimed again. This time the man put out his wrist. The wrist was crushed. Just then the lion saw the 'boy running in the dis tance and started after him. He killed the boy and started back. 4 Coming up to the wounded man. he smelled around, then turned and walked away," the physician wild.

Owen, general ui; li nger of the Owen-Oregon Dumber company is in Tort la ml on busi ness, nnd his visit Inspires the; hotel reporter of the Dortland Ore- white goniiin today tu say: here is the raiiruao go ing and what will its ultimate purpose be 7 These are some of the questions asked by business men at Medford re garding the logging road J. H. Owen has. built. Dast week M r. Owen, who is registered at the Hotel Portland, went out with his engineers to ex amine a route for the con struction of a seven-ml li ex tension. The general route which Mr. Owen is following is one of those mapped out by John II. Stevens of the CI real Northern, a number of years ago. There is a belief existing In Medford that eventually this logging road will be hooked up witli the Northern lines, and when that time comes an outlet may be built to Crescent City. At his offices today, it was said Mr. O w e n has m a d e a horse back trip into the Hut to" Kails dis trict last week to inspect timber, and was' accompanied hy .. two cruisers, and that the trip had no connection with a "seven mile ex tension." i.ast summer Mr. Owen spent ten days in the timber, southeast of Butte Falls, and reported "that a railroad line could be built on an easy grade from Klamath Falls to Itutte Falls." Mr. Owen is expected to be called as a witness before the T. C. C. hearing now in session at Tort land, to testify to the amount of timber tonnage available to a rail road traversing the territory be tween Klamath Falls and Crescent City. M r. Owen is expected back at his desk in :i day or two. Ureses K DAILY W IN AUTO CRASH: CaliforuiaiLs registered at Med - ' ford hotels include D. S. Ander son of l.lve Oak. A. U.
