Jaeckle of Dunsmuir, Is In Medford to visit her sister, Mrs. Oeorge Vance. She arrive in the oity by train at noon today. A Frano of the French monetary system, minted In 1018. stole Into the cash register at the Roxy Ann fountain yesterday, passing for a United States of America, quarter and Its Identity was not revealed until last night, when a check on the day's business was made by W. O. Webster. Neither his son Ranson, nor daugh ter Mlllicent, who operate the foun tain, admitted accepting the Frano, but both described it as looking very much like the sliver pfece, known to the westerner as "two-bits." A standing goddess deco rates "heads" for each coin, but "tails" are decidedly different, as la also the weight of the money. These two Items wouldn't bother him at all, though, Ranson Webster stated this morning If it weren't for the fact that "the Frano la only worth about four cent now and we accepted It for 85."
