A.W. ACER BURNED OUT
Residence Totally Destroyed With
Most of Contents Last Sat
urday Night.

The residence of A. w. Ager was
totally destroyed by fire last Satur-
day night. Mr.. Ager returned home
from lodge and replenished the fire
in the kitchen stove and took bath
in the kitchen. He then went to
bed and was soon awakened by the
smoke and found the interior of the
kitchen afire. He believes the fire
to have caught from spark which
flew from the stove. At least there
seems no other rational way to ac-
count for it, as when discovered the
fire was all around the stove on the
floor and caught the ceiling after he
discovered it. The entire building
was destroyed, as before the hose
could be got out the building was a
mass of flames. The new municipal
waterworks, however, proved their
efficiency. Mr.. Ager says that had
he had a garden hose he could have
put out the fire, but he had not yet
been connected up with the city wa
ter.
Mr.. Ager lost practically every
thing in the house, including the
clothing of the family and a good
sized library of valuable books. He
places the loss on the contents of
the building at about $1,000 and on
the building itself at about $500.
His total insurance is $1,000.
The family are living in tent at
present and Mr.. Ager has already
commenced the erection of a wood
shed which he will use as a tempo
rary domicile. He expects later to
erect a good dwelling place on the
lots, which are centrally located.
The sympathy of many friends goes
out to the family in their loss.

The Land of the Daughter.

London Spectator: 1t is said that
a young daughter is very real asset
to every public man in America.
"Dr. Woodrow Wilson is to be con-
graduated on the possession of a
daughter" we read the other day
in the columns of one of our contem-
poraries. The lack of this desirable
asset is drawback, we are assured,
to the popularity of politicians.
America is no doubt the paradise of
debutantes; it is the land of the
daughter. In the older countries
they are not quite so much heard of.
1t is not long ago since they were
very little heard of indeed. In the
ancient east they are still-conven-
tionally, at any rate-considerabl
under-valued. They make up for it
in a measure when they come to be
mothers and, later still, nIothers-in-
law. American sentiment, playing
round the relation of parent and
child, as universal sentiment must
always play, has set the daughter in
front of the picture. 1t is a new
expression of chivalry. A great part
of the western world has ceased to
express reverence for women
through the medium of religion.
Professionalism does not admit the
possibility of divine femininity. The
emotion which found expression in a
dogma has flowed into other chan
nels. The Puritans, when they d.
vested women of the worship once
symbolically offered them, gave
something very great in return.

PLANT is NOT CERTAIN.
Promoter Cement Plant Says Site
Not Secured Yet.

Medford, April 22-There is moth
ing definite about the building of
cement plant at Gold Hill, according
to j. c. Burch of Portland, one of
the hackers of the Beaver Portland
Cement Company. 1t is the intention
to build cement plant somewhere
in the Rogue River Valley, but Just
where depends upon a number of
contingencies now hanging in the
balance. Mr.. Burch will 20 to Gold
Hill this morning on business con-
nected with the cement enterprise.
THE company which l represent
mas favored southern Oregon in
many ways" said Mr. Burch last
night in an interview, "and have in
allegiance site near Roseburg. We
are spending money to make tests at
Gold Hill, and if they prove up to
the standard and of sufficient guam
tity we will locate there. There are
several matters of Importance yet to
be closed up before anything definite
can be given out on the project. l
expect to be here until the first of
the month working on the details"
Relative to an article appearing in
the Portland Oregonian, Mr.. Burch
said that it was only true in part, as
the company had not definitely de-
cided to build plant at Gold Hill,
or that site had been secured, or
that the contract for the construc-
ton of the plant had been let. Ac-
cording to Mr.. Burch several points
in southern Oregon are bidding for
the plant.

TO DEVELOP FIND.
Iron and Gas Near Gold Hill to be
Used.

Gold Hill News: Midway up Wa
ter gulch, sloping to the left, lies a
titanic mound that Is familiar in To-
cal parlance as "the iron mountain. "
That it is not misnoner is Hhe
contention of competent mining men,
who are inclined to the opinion,
however, that the iron ore so pro-
fusely apparent is merely the cap
ping to tremendous copper deposit.
Speculation has always been rife as
to the day when the possibilities of
this vast and valuable mountain of
ore would be realized aud capital
interested in its development. For
a number of years the tract has been
owned by the Garfield Iron & Lime
Company of Portland
1t is now currently rumored that
the visit of DR.. H. e. French and
F. w. Hollis of Medford 70 this city
the first of the present week is the
preliminary step toward develop
ment of the property in the near fu-
ture. 1t is understood that these
gentlemen were here as representa-
tives of Medford coterie of finan-
ciers who have secured bond upon
the property and will undertake to
develop it.
1t is also stated, with Dame Ru-
NOR again as sponsor, thar the prin-
cipals propose to utilize natural gas
from the bituminous coal fields near
Medford to operate the prospective
plant. So great Is the supply of gas
from this source that difficulty is
experienced in freeing the workings
of the accumulations and the pro-
posal to give it a commercial ues in
generating power is an eXpedient
and feasible one
Messrs. French and Hollis made a
personal survey of the ground and
carried specimens with them upon
their departure, Water gulch, upon
which the deposit is situated, is two
and one-half miles east of this city.

Names on Paintings

Harper's Weekly: Many of the
works of the old masters are not
signed. Experts rarely rely on sig
natures alone in determining the au-
thenticity of an old work, but trust
rather to their knowledge of the
painters technic.
False signatures can easily be de-
tected. Spirits of wine or turpentine
will usually remove a name of later
date than the painting. In the
course of time signatures often be-
come very difficult to find. Painted
originally in shade slightly lighter
than the ground perhaps they sink
in, darken and merge into the
ground color or they are almost
rubbed away by successive cleanings.
Recognizable one day in a specially
favorable light, they may not be visi-
BILE for weeks.
Experts speak of "will-o'- '-the-wisp"
signatures, and many collectors have
encountered accidental strokes and
cracks that tantalizingly suggest a
signature, though it can never be
made definite. On the other hand,
there have been remarkable cases of
such marks, after careful study, re-
solving themselves into a famous
name.
Sometimes the painters name is
most conspicuous, as, for instance,
in Raphaers "Sposalizo" at Milan.
Proud of having surpassed his mas
ter, the youthful genius wrote on a
frieze in the very center of the can
vas, Raphael Urbinas."
Reynolds hardly ever signed his
work. But upon the completion of
the portrait of Mrs. Siddons as the
Tragic Muse he wrote his name large
in the gold embroidery of her dress.
He was unable, he said "to resist the
temptation of sending my name to
posterity on the hem of your gar
ment."
with reference to unsigned paint
lngs, there is told in Germany an
amusing story. Achenbach, the Ger
man artist, enjoyed vogue about
ten years ago. A certain collector
had bought from an art dealer a
marine represented as a genuine
achenbach. Afterwards it was pro-
nounced to be a copy. The buyer
brought an action against the dealer,
who turned the tables by declaring
his picture was genuine and the 9TH
er was copy.
Achenbach himself was summoned
by the court to tell which was which.
Amazed at the similarity of the two
paintings, the artist gazed at them
for long time, inspected them close
ly front and back, and then frankly
admitted that he could not tell which
was the original and which the copy.
