BLACKTOP PAVING:
HALTED FOR TIME
BY COURT
Upon the petition of Earl H. Fehl
a temporary restraining order, pre
liminary to a permanent Injunction,
was siffned yesterday by County
Judge W. J. Hartzell prohibiting
the city of Medford and the L. O.
Her old . company from the laying

nue. The order is made returnable
September 10. Bonds In the sum
of $1000 were posted by Fehl, for
whom George M. Roberts is acting
as attorney. ,
Fehl, in his application for a re
straining order, contends thut the
city acted, wltho'ut" its logal rights
by granting the paving contract to
tho L. O; Herroid company, and
Bets forth that a majority of the
property owners on- Park avenue
Hi Rned a petition protesting against
tho use ,of asphalt.; ; The; petition
ers are listed as C. T. Baker, Fred
J. Fry, E. G. Dow, Jens Jensen,

Dodge,' Earl S. Tumy, Dr. : R; E.
Green, 'j. E. Randies, II. E. War
.rier. J. A. Young and J. J. Euchter.
; The main question involved is
the legality of the council's ac
tion, i ;
; It1 is understood that similar re
, straining orders, will., be. filed, by
property owners on , other streets
listed for paving with black top.

TODAY IS CIRCUS DAY IN
MEDFORD BIG SHOW TONIGHT
V ill (M
iTi'iViVir
(.11 reus day, to the kids the big
gest day of the year, not excepting
Fourth of July . or Christmas, Is
here today, marking the first visit
to Medford of the Christy Brothers
hig five-ring wild nhimal circus,
the largest circus in the world that
still retnins the always looked for
street parade.
From everywhere within a wide
radius people have been driving
to town to see the circus. Throngs
of people, old and young, gathered
early in the business district and
although it was entirely too soon,
grew impatient because the street
parade did not put In an appear
ance. They jammed the sidewalks,
streets were filled with cars and
the roofs of buildings as well as
telephone and teit-graph polos were
used as vantage points to got an
unobstructed view of the big gag:
eant.
Scenes of circus day were enact
etl as early as U o'clock when the
crowd began to arrive and tho cir
cus street men began to display
their wares. Soon vari-colorcd
b ad 1 o o it s were bobbing In the
breeze, -fond' mothers bought little
l'Ubbor elephants for the kids. Home
preferred tho subbor snakes and
blue birds on a stick met with a
ready sale. The merchants profit
ed by the .coming of the circus,
particularly the restaurants and
tho Ice cream parlors. . Drug stores
were well patronized and everyone
garnered in a few extrn dollars
that were nut left with the ticket
spllor.s out at the show grounds.
Tho circus spent quite a sum with
the local merchants, all of tho. feed
being purchased here by the 4
bour man, so called, who came
here yesterday and .had delivered
this morning; two tons of hay,
bushels of oats, .1000 pounds pf''om every angle, it must be ad
bran, four sides of beef for th
nnlmnls. 50CI loaves of broad at
the cookhouse .half a dozen crates
of CL-U'S end 20 unllmw nf. In ,.lm,i,.
for the candy stands. There wits
a trucklond of groceries delivered I
to ' the. show's steward early tills)
morning and all of tho Boo cm-
ployox of the big show spent some
money In local .stores. To some;
a circus, day may be an 111 wind,
but It blew a lot of good today to
local merchants. I
Christy's iiltc a Show.
Tin: Christy show is not a small!
affair. There Is a manimolh circus
"big top" with seven polos, that
looked almost as long as a city
block, a menagerie with six poles,
that held 30 cages of wild ani
mals and the elephants and cam
els, u side-show with Its freaks
and curlofdties. a pit show where
I there was a- midget and n six-
legged horse, two dressing rooms,
four stables CHlcil with ninri. limn
200 fine horses, a cooking tent and
dlnlnir room and l.l.ioltsnih h end

rienihifr Stroot PnrnrK
The Christ j- i.miv made Bood Itsj
boast of having a big street pa
rade, it was possibly tho best seen
here since the days the Illnglings
used to make use of this big morn
ing .advertising feature. The first
band-wagon mado tho old-timers
rub their eyes. It was just liko
the ones tho ltingllngs used to use,
magnificently carved and deco
rated float with tho bass drummer
hitfh up In front and the coructists
under the canopy at the rear.
There were two other golden alio- j
gorical baud chariots, America and
Asia, that did not miss anyone's
admiring glances, good looking 1
lady riders, open dens of wild ani-j
mals lumbering elephants and i
shuffling camels, that looked I
thirsty and bored, tandem teams !
of snow white stallions and ze-j
brase, a Scotch band and a bunch
of colored jazz artists, as well as!
the customary calliope at the fag
end, that could be heard two miles
out in the country and made the
kids stick their fingers in their
ears as the old veteran at tho key
board played very appropriately
"The Good Old Summer Tlny."
Tho kids liked the caes with tho
monkeys and the baboons the host,
but the cowboys, especially the
little kid and his partner all doll
ed up in t true western style, did
not want for companions or at
tention. The kids kept alongside
of them all tho way back to the
show lot. There was a big dis
play of lions. Home monster tigers,
polar bears, deer, pumas and leop
ards and a complete children's me
nagerie. The Christy show takes
good care of the kiddies and this
afternoon more than 300 rode tho
little ponies and the baby ele
phants after the performance.
Looking1 at the Christy shows
mitted that It Is a real circus, much
more free of objectionable features
than Is the case usually, and there
was not even a dance for men only
' 'n the sldo-show.
