AN UNEXPECTED GUEST.
Woman Supposed to Be Dead for Al
Years Drops in On Relatives.

Spokane, Wash, July 26.-Be-
lieved to have been killed Al years
ago, Mrs. F. P. Lacy of Keller,
Wash, came to Spokane this week
and dropped in at a reunion of her
three sisters at the home of one of
them, Mrs. A. c. Olson, 2502 Stand
ard street. The four sisters married
about 4S years ago in New Bruins
wick, Canada, and settled in various
parts of the United States. Mrs.
Lacy went to Wyoming, and Al years
ago her sisters received word that
she had lost her life in an Indian up
rising. However, Mrs. Lacy was not
killed, as she herself said. Instead,
she is living at Keller, Wash, where
a few days ago she read an item in
Spokane paper telling of a family
reunion to be held in Spokane at the
home of Mrs. A. c. Olsen. When she
read the names of Mrs. w. E. Ray
mond of South Dakota and Mrs. H.
c. Wieben of Springfield, Mo-, she
knew she had been unintentionally
overlooked in the invitation list, so
she packed up and took the train,
arriving in Spokane in time to par
ticipate.

SECRETARY DANIELS SHOWN VALLEY
met HERE BY GOV WEST AND DELEGATION OF CITIZENS AND TAKEN
TO MEDFORD BY AUTO To SEE ROGUE RIVER VALLEY

Secretary of the Navy Josephus
Daniels, accompanied by Mrs. DAN
iels and his official aide, Mr.. Palmer
arrived in Ashland Sunday afternoon
and was met here by Governor West
and by delegations from the Ashland
and Medford commercial clubs.
There were choice fruits and beauti-
full bouquets of roses presented to
the secretary and Mrs. Daniels. 1t
had been the hope of the Commercial
Club that it would be possible to
have Secretary Daniels make an ex-
tended stop in Ashland and see the
city and its surroundings, but it was
found to be impossible as he was
travelling on No. IA and not by spec
ial train. However, it was found
possible to have him and his party
take autos here and go to Medford,
taking the train again here.
Accompanying Governor West to
Ashland were Judge Tou Velle,
George Putnam and Mrs. Putnam.

WAREHOUSE is ROBBED
Union Packing Warehouse in This
City Entered and Robbed
Friday Night.

The National Packing Company's
warehouse near the Southern Pacific
track was burglarized Friday night
and quite quantity of stuff taken.
There was a light broken in the
office window, and apparently there
had been boy put through the win
dow to open the door. There had
been two chunks of limburger, three
chunks of brick cheese, one ham, one
side of bacon and two cases of corn
beef taken. The police are of the
opinion that it was done by hoboes,
a goodly number of whom were
around the railroad yards Friday.
One of the reasons on which the po-
lice base their opinion that it was
hoboes is that had it been local light
fingered gentry they would have TAX
en- more meat and heavy stuff. 1t
looks as if the spoil had been pur-
posely such as could be divided and
carried by the members of a good
sized crowd. ie so d

Wilson charged a violation o.

charge that Mrs. Madero had forged
his signature to various letters. He
added he could easily prove the
charge. Wilson also admitted thai
he expects to return to Mexico.
At 10 o'clock he was summoned
to the state department.

There has been no train from the

of the burning of a bridge about five

TO RECOVER LANDS.
State and Government Unite in At.
tempt.

Portland, July 24.-According to
the local federal land office officials
the state of Oregon and the govern
ment will unite in an effort to re-
cover 10000 acres of land alleged
to have been irregularly obtained a
few years ago by F. A. Hyde of San
Francisco.
The federal authorities will work
with Governor West and State Attor-
ney General Crawford. The an
nouncements were made today that
suits will be filed in six counties.
The complaints allege that Hyde
and others through the use of dunn
mics got possession of large tracts
of school land in violation of the
state laws, which provide a person
must buy only for his own use.
1t is claimed that later Hyde and
associates exchanged these lands for
good timber land, although the gov
ernment refused to make further ex-
changes after investigations.

MUST Be RE-SENTENCED
Supreme Court Refuses to Grant
New Trial to Spanos and Seymour,
Condemned Murderers.

The supreme court of Oregon, hav-
ing affirmed the verdict against and
the sentence of Mike Spanos and
George Seymour, sentenced to death
for the murder of George Dedaskal-
Gus, at Medford some months ago. it
becomes necessary for Judge Calkins
to re-sentence them to death. This
will probably be done this week. 1t
would seem that in common sense if
not in law the affirmation of the
verdict of a district court ought to
automatically set the day of execu-
tion so as to save the district Judge
from the painful ordeal of second
time sentencing them.

COURT SHOULD ACTNOW
County Court to Consider Processing
Fruit for Panama-Pacific Ex-
position Tuesday.

At meeting of the county court
tomorrow morning the question OF
having display of processed fruits
and vegetables made this season by
H. o. Frohbach for a. county dis
play at the Panama-Pacific exposi-
tion is to be decided. The cost of
such an exhibit, including jars and
having the fruits placed in them at
the Oregon building at San Francis
co, to avoid breakage and heavy ex-
press charges, will amount to
$1,700.
The question most discussed by the
county court is whether it would not
be just as well to wait until next
year to have this work done. The
county court have visited the labora.
tory of Mr.. Frohbach in Ashland
and have satisfied themselves tha
he has method of processing which
is satisfactory for the preservation
of fruits in their original color and
firmness for years.
Mr.. Frohbach gives as his reason
that the county court ought to have
the processing done this year, that
this years crop is of exceptional
value for exhibit purposes and that
he has made them a reasonable prop
osition to do this work now, whereas
his services next year will be in de-
mand far in excess of his ability to
do all the work which will be de-
sired in his line.
Jackson county ought to have a
good display of her products and
minerals at the Panama exposition,
and as money is now available for
this purpose the county court should
make an effort at the collection of
products this season, which has been
remarkably favorable for not alone
grains and alfalfa but fruits and veg
etables as well.
There is always an uncertainty of
the crops in any section, due to the
action of the elements, and leaving
the collection of the exhibit until
next year for such an exposition as
the Panama-Pacific may be at sac
rifice of the showing which this
county could make under the best
condition.

PREPARE FOR
EXHIBITION
WORK OF GETTING READY PRO-
CROSSING FAVORABLY.
COMMITTEES HAVE BEEN NAMED
Ladies Selected by Parent-Teachers'
Circle to Organize Departments to
Choose Their Own Helpers and
Should Get Busy.

The work of raising vegetables for
the children's industrial fair should
have been well under way ere this

partments there is still time to pre-
pare eplendid exhibits. The Parent
Teachers circles have appointed the
committees to take charge of the
various departments. 1t is the duty
of these committees to look after
and encourage the getting ready of
the exhibits in their own lines, of
seeing that the exhibits are proper
ly arranged, etc. Every parent in
town should see that his or her chill
dren have one or more articles in
the exhibition. The classification
and the premiums will be similar to
the list recently published for the
Neil Creek schools, as all these ex-
hibitions are held under the general
plan of the state department of pub
lie instruction which plans holding
several exhibitions in every county
in the state. The best of the eXhib-
its will be taken to the state fair
and entered in the children's indus
trial exhibit there, which promises
to be one of the big features of the
Oregon state fairs of the future.
The following are the committees
selected to have charge of the vari-
Gus departments of the Ashland ex-
hibit which will be held in Septem-
ber, prior to the state fair:
Dolls-Mrs. James McNair, Mrs.
Tilton.

as she may choose, to help in her
department.

3 SOrra Angle of Ashland, who has
been quietly prospecting for some
time in the hills around Ashland,
was showing some fine samples of
quartz which he states. were found
within a few miles of Ashland, but
for obvious reasons he refuses to tell
the exact location of the find at the
present time. He went to Medford
this morning to meet DR.. j. F. Reddy,
who has been interested with him
in the prospecting enterprise. Here's
hoping Ora has found his fortune.

newspaper man, has learned unosten-

Washington, July 26.-Summary
removal from office by President
Wilson is the fate predicted for
Henry Lane Wilson, United States
ambassador to Mexico, who held a
long interview here today with Sec
retary of State Bryan on his actions
in Mexico since the overthrow and
assassination of President Madero.
Wilson is to be allowed to lay the
groundwork of the case against
himself. He conferred with Bryan
for forty minutes this morning and
was instructed to write a complete
report of his actions since the fall
of Madero. All the confidential re-
ports he has sent the government
were given to Wilson. He will die
tate his statement to Bryan's private
stenographer, and on the case he
presents, it is said, will depend
whether or not he will be allowed
to return to his post.
1t is learned that Wilson's i'm
piled criticism of the administration
in interviews would certainly have
caused his instant dismissal except
that his removal now might compli-
cate Mexican affairs. Tomorrow the
president will consider Wilson's re-
port, and all the other circumstances
of his case, and it is believed his
mind will be pretty well made up
when he grants the ambassador who
is under fire chance to tell his
story on Monday.
Friends of Ambassador Wilson are
the loudest here today in predicting
his removal next week. They say
that if the president takes this
course Ambassador Wilson will de-
mand that the foreign relations
committee of the senate investigate
his case and the whole Mexican sit
uation, asserting that the present
embroglio in Mexico is due simply
to the lack of support given Wilson
by the administration. He will
simply claim that. if Huerta had
been recognized by the United
States Immediately after Madero's
fall, any organized rebellion would
have been impossible.
Washington, July 26.-Asked to.

Mexican situation in New York, Am

How to Discard
Unsightly Complexion

How often you exclaim as you
behold your ugly complexion in
the mirror, IF l only could tear off
this old skim" And, do you know,
some have learned to do that very
thing? Not to actually remove the
entire skin all of sudden; that
would be too heroic a method and
painful. The worn-out cuticle
comes off in such tiny particles,
and so gradually--requirin about
ten days to complete the transfer
mation-it doesn't hurt a bit. Day
by day the beautiful complexion
underneath comes forth. Marvel
Gus! No matter how muddy, rough,
blotchy or aged your complexion,
you can surely discard it by this
simple process. Just get an ounce
of ordinary mercolized wax at your
druggists, apply nightly like cold
cream, washing it off mornings.
The wrinkles you get rid OF by
an equally simple method. BY dis
solving an ounce of powdered sax
olite in a half-pint witch hazel and
bathing your face in the solution,
every line completely disappears.
First the finer lines, finally even
the deep crows feet, vanish en-
tirely.
