son.
Earl DeQeopper, advance represen
tative, visited the Mall Tribune of
fice Saturday and outlined the new
features of this season's circus.
As a prelude to this season's circus
performance a gloriously enchanting
ana; stupendous sptctncle entitled
"The Pageant of Gold," a gorgeous
fiesta of old Spain, u unfolded. All
who love fairy lore, far exceeding In
msgnlflcance, brilliancy, gorgoous-
ness and beauty the glories of any
specacle yet staged by this circus,
will not be disappointed. There will
b upwards of loo dancing girls: great
companies 01 trained singers, orches
tras of vast size, grand golden-toned
organs and the crash of cymbnls. Yet
this colossal production which dally
amazes thousands, Is but one feature
of the Al a, Barnes circus.
A tribe of monster- lped Ubangl
avages from the Congo district of
equatorial South Africa will be aeon
with the show this season. It is the
flist time that they have been exhib
ited in this section of the state. They
are the greatest feature ever carried
with the Al O. Barnes Circus along
with the Belmont family of English
equestrians and the Orlzelle troupe
of Belgian riders. Alex Acevedo, the
dancing, somersaulting, tumbling
wire walker from Mexico, and the
Jordan sextette of aerallsts, cham
pions of Europe. Sixty clowns, head
ed by Jack Kllppel and Curley Phil
Hps, will furnish fun for the little
folks. AV O. Barnes' troupe of forty
femnlne riders, will be seen.
There are 1,080 people with the big
ahow. The S00 performers represent
18 foreign countries. Twenty-two
tents covering la acres of ground are
used to house the transient city
which at night Is transported from
town to" town upon three special
trains
The clean business methods and
the magnitude of this great traveling
enterprise have always made the Al
O. Barnes circus welcome visitors to
this community. This marvel, super
ahow of 10,000 wonders, represents an
Immense Investment.
The performances will be given at
S and 8 p. m. The doors will open
an hour earlier for each performance
to permit the Inspection of the 1m
menss uoo or to enjoy a concert" of
popular and operatlo music by Prof.
Bedrlck's military band.

BY ABSENCE OF

SEIZED IN $50,000 KIDNAP PLOT
Monthly meteorological notes for
July, ss compiled by w. J. Hutchison,
local observer, show that In 22 years
of record for Medford there has been
but one July during which dally
temperatures averaged lover than
those for July, 1032. The month was
exceptionally cool, but without un
usually low minimum temperatures.
Dally maximum temperatures, how
ever, averaged well below past year's
records. In July, 1016, weather of
similar character, with respect to
tempersture, prevailed with an aver,
age monthly temperature of 07.6 de-
greea which Is only slightly lower
than the average for July, 1932 with
68.2 degrees.
The persistence of unseasonsbly
cool weather throughout the month
was due, for the most part, to the
predominance of an extensive high
pressure area covering the greater
portion of the northeast Pacific
ocean. Cool northwesterly winds,
blowing from the northern portion
of the high pressure area over the
Pacific northwest, held temperatures
conslstsntly below normal during the
month. Also, under the Influence
of this pressure condition cloudi
ness wss at a minimum during July.
Precipitation totaled far below
normal. Measurable rainfall occurred
only on the 9th when a very light
rain totaled 0.04 inches. Light rains
also fell on the 10th, 13th and 30th
but the amounta were too small to
be mensurable. Comparing the total
of 0.04 Inches for July with the
normal a doflo't-ncy of 0.38 Inches
Is shown. However, this shortage
'effects the seasonal excess but
slightly. Seasonal precipitation re
mains well above normal, showing a
totnl of 22.32 Inches as against the
normal of 17.00 Inches,
The prevalence of northwesterly
winds during the month Is shown
by the fact that dally prevailing di
rections for 20 days were recorded
from northwest. Monthly wind move
ment was greatly In excess of pre
vious July records, showing a total
of 6228 miles' and resulting In a
rather high average monthly velocity
of 7 miles per hour. This unusually
high average velocity Is particularly
Interesting because of the absence
of winds of high velocities during
July and a fairly even distribution
of Increased winds throughout the
month.

Peter Cunnlff (left) and Joseph Verdlco were seized by Chicago
police as suspected members of a gang which threatened to kidnap

Durand, did not pay $50,000 to them.
SIMPLE METHOD
Another recipe to do used by local
housewives In preparing for the
coming winter In an Inexpensive
manner waa submitted yesterday by
Mrs. H. D. McCaskoy for publication,
It la the Pennsylvania Dutch way of
drying corn, has been tried In the
McCaskcy household for many years
and Is recommended by Mrs. Mc-
Caskey as a delicious, aa well
economical food for any season.
The corn Is first cooked on the
cob, as If for table consumption.
When cool, the corn Is removed and
placed on flats on an oven or In the
sun to dry. When It Is thoroughly
dry (and Mrs. McCaskey warns those
who try the recipe to be sure that
It Is dry) It la placed In sacks, such
salt or flour sacks (not paper
bags) .
It should then be hung up ana
kept hanging until used. An occa
sional thump at the bag to shake
up the contents la also advised.
Many people dry corn heio witnout
cooking It first, Mrs. McCaskey said
yesterday, but the cooking process
la advised as It retains much of the
milk, a valuable Ingredient, which
la lost under the other method of
drying.
Corn la now tn season and can
be obtained at a low price.

aimed to lure the great wide world
to Chicago next year for the one
hundredth anniversary celebration of
the city, Attorney Gus Newbury yes
terday afternoon called a halt In
legal' proceedings to bring to mind
a story of early days in the great
metropolis, as it was recalled many
years ago at the Table Rook saloon
at Jacksonville, by A. M. Berry, pio
neer. "Gus" pitched hay for Mr. Berry
when he was 14 years old and re
calls the story, he stated yesterday,
as vividly as the hottest spot In the
500-acre field.
Mr. Berry came Into Chicago In
1837 or 1838, and being a carpenter,
Mr. Newbury stated, assisted In the
construction of some of the first
buildings put up In that city, long
before prohibition and gangs were
known to the populace.
'While engaged In his trade In 1841,
like the Chicago school teachers of
1931, he failed to collect his wages.
So did the group of carpenters with
whom he was working. Mr. Berry
was elected as spokesman for the
group to take the necessary meas
ures to bring in the cash.
He placed the claims In the hands
of an attorney who brought In the
money.
In the 60s Mr. Berry removed to
Oregon and with other members of
the gold rush clan settled In the
roaring town of Jacksonville. Ten
years later, when crossing the streets
of the town, he was stopped where
the Table Rock saloon now stands
by a distinguished looking gentle
man, who asked if he had ever lived
in Chicago. Mr. Berry admitted that
he had.
The newcomer was the attorney,
who collected the carpenters' wages
E. D. Baker. He was elected that
same year aa one of the United
States senators from Oregon. While
a senator he raised a regiment of
soldiers from the Pacific coast and
drilled them near the capltol grounds
in Washington. He was killed lead
