A. A. C.'s Win Two More Games

The A. A. O. baseball nine has ad.
ded two more victories TO its list
Sunday at Jacksonville they again
defeated the latter team. The Jack.
sonville boys tried hard to wrest the
championship from Grants Pass but
were defeated in score Of Q TO /.
The iirst score was made by jackson
VILE in the first inning. In the
ninth inning Harry Smith made a
score and the last was made by Hanks
in the tenth Inning, Pernoll pitched
one OF the best games ever pitched in
Southern Oregon
The second game was played at this
place Tuesday with Medfurd locals
and was won by Grants Pass in n score
VI to q. The odds were against the
A. A Z. as they had PLAYED hard
game two days before and were con .
sequently in poor condition for an.
other game. The tally was close and
for awhile II looked as though Med
ford would carry off the houors. but
the A. A. O., with the energy and
spirit which is always manifest in
their playing and which oharacteri2es
them as the best team in Southern
Oregon, again proved themselves too
much for their opponents.
Next Sunday Jacksonville will play
the "A. A. Z. in this city.

Work Progressing on New School
Building.

The work Of excavating for the
basement and foundation for the new
Third Ward school building will be
completed this week and next week
brick laying will be begun. The con-
tractor, John Nalsskowski, has sublet
the contract for the brickwork to H.
J. Clark. Mr.. Nalaskowski only
doing the carpenter work. Mr.. Clark
is having large amount of brick de-
livered and Monday he will put a
large force Of bricklayers at work to
rush the job as the contract allows
but two months in which to complete
the building.
The Courier is asked to make an
explanation on the part of the unsuc
cessful bidders on the new school
building. AS published in the
papers last week the bids Of Utley &
Harper, Hubbard, Day q Fitzgerald
and Henry Snock were considerable
higher than the bid Of John Nalas.
kowski, to whom was awarded the
contract. This big difference was
caused by the board changing the
plans of the building after the bids
had been received to not use steel eye
beams over the windows and doors
but to use brick arches. These eye
beams would have cost si20. This
amount had it been deducted from the
amounts of the unsuccessful bidders
would have brought their bids down
close TO that of Mr.. Nalaskowski, but
not so low as to have given anyone
of them the contract.

SOUTHERN OREGON
COPPER DISTRICTS
Raise In Price Gives Impetus to
the 1ndustry-This Section
to Be q Bis Producer.

Copper having almost doubled in
price in the last five years with the
demand so great by reason Of electrical
and other requirements, that many of
the refineries are behind with their
orders has given big impetus to the
development of new copper districts.
Southern Oregon is feeling this boom
in copper and many prospectors are
locating and developing claims in
the Takilma and other districts of
the Illinois Valley and in the Apple
gate Valley.
The greatest rush is now to the
Blue Ledge district in the Upper
Applegate alley, where over 600
claims have been taken and very ex-
tensive development work is being
carried on by many Of the claim hold
ers. This big rush to the Upper APP
plegate is largely due to the certainty
that is felt that a big smelter will be
erected on the famous Blue Ledge mine
now being developed by New York
company, who are employing 150 men
and crowding work with the utmost
speed. A number of Spokane capt.
alists are also doing extensive work
on promising copper claims in this
district. The outlook for the Blue
Ledge district is so good that miners
are going there in large numbers.
This district is reached by a daily
stage line operated from Jacksonville
by Geo. II. Lewis, the well known
liveryman of that place. His traffic
has so increased that he has put on ad.
ditional stages and as the local rail-
road from Medford to Jacksonville
does not run a morning train. Mr..
Lewis has stage leave Medford early
each morning, to accommodate miners
coming in on the s. P. trains, who
desire to 20 direct to the Blue Ledge
district or to Jacksonville. The trip
to Joes Bar, the distributing point for
the Blue Ledge district, is made in
one day.

Now Sits Under His Own Vine
and Fig Tree.

Rev. j. b. Travis is now putting in
all his spare time in putting the yard
in shape about his dwelling house he
recently had built on North Seventh
street and which he moved into last
week. The house has eight rooms
and is the perfection of convenience.
Broad halls and large airy rooms and
a generous porch are the attractive
features, while the room and library
of Rev. Travis is all that student
could ask The building is warmed
by furnace and commo iious base
ment affords ample storage space for
wood and other purposes. The loca.
tion selected by Rev. and Mrs Travis
for their new home is one of the most
desirable in the city and a fine view
is had of the valley of Rogue river in
the distance.
Rev. Travis has had several fiatter-
ing calls In the past year to other
cities but now that he is no longer
tenant but is able TO sit beneath his
own vine and fig tree and as he is one
of the most popular ministers in Grants
Pass and the Baptist church is so we'll
satisfied with his pastoral work that
they raised his salary despite his
wishes, there is every certainty that
he aud his equally popular wife will
be residents of this city for many
years 10 come.
