ANOTHER &c. WASHINGTON

The hour was rather late, and con-
versation at the club had turned up
on mysterious midnight noises. An
eerie feeling pervaded the atmos-
phere, and a spare young man struck
a further weird note.
Gentlemen" he said, for real
awe give me the roaring of the lion,
or sharp trumpeting of an elephant,
borne on the still night air as you
lie silent and inert"
They looked at him in surprise.
Was this spare youth some great
traveller?
Have you really slept in the Jungle
and heard those sounds?" queried
one of his listeners, with interest.
well, not exactly" said the
youth, as he edged towards the
door; but / sleep with my window
open, and my diggings are by the
Geological Gardens!''

WHERE IGNORANCE IS BLISS
1t was the usual custom at See
weed Farm for Mrs. Giles TO wind
up all the clocks each Saturday even
ing.
But last Saturday Mrs. Giles was
on the sick hst-nothing more seri-
Gus than a slightly sprained ankle
and she found it impossible for her
to move about the house. So Giles
was hidden to undertake the per-
Torrance of her duties.
Now Giles was short and fat. The
kitchen mantelshef was high. In
order, therefore, to reach the clock
which stood upon it Giles was forced
to requisition the services of chair.
Laboriously he mounted it, while
Mrs. Giles watched the manoeuvre
in fear and trembling.
John, john she cried, "do be
careful That chair, you know, is
none too strong. Pm sure it won't
bear you weight"
Giles turned round and surveyed
his spouse calmly.
cay, ay, my dear" he said, sits
quite all right; I'm only standing on
one leg"

Philadelphia Knights TempIar Pass
Through Ashland.

A special of IL cars passed through
Ashland Thursday afternoon, about
o'clock, carrying the members of
Mary Commandery, of Philadelphia,
and their families. They had been
to Denver and were on their way
home, via Portland. The train con-
sisted of two Pennsylvania baggage
cars, two Pennsylvania diners, a
Pennsylvania observation car and
seven standard Pullman sleepers.
There were on board 144 people be-
sides the train crew, chefs, walters.
etc. The party stopped here about
20 minutes and expressed regret that
they could not stop longer as they
were much charmed with the trip
down the valley from the summit of
the Siskiyous. The party swarmed
into Powell's store on the corner and
took it by storm, practically cleaning
it out of cider and fruit and greatly
depicting its stock of postals. The
gentleman in charge while Mr.. Pow
ell is on his vacation said he was
simply swamped. All he could do
was let them wait on themselves
while he made change. He spoke
very highly of the courtesy and hon
esty of the entire party, saying that
despite the confusion and crowd he
did not think single member of
the party took thing that was not
paid for, either Intentionally or 9TH
erwise. He said they might have
some left without their change, but
he was not sure. They were GER
tainly a jovial bunch.

Saw Wild Deer.

Mrs. Yockey has often been heard
to remark that she would never be
happy until she saw a wild DEER"
the remark being occasioned by deer
tracks being plainly visible on the
roads of the west side, and especially
around the springs and up to the
yard gates at Encanto Heights. Well,
her wish was gratified Friday morn
ing, and still she is not particularly
happy, as the old nag saw it too and
became almost unmanageable. After
quieting the horse and securing it to
q convenient fence post, Mrs. Yockey
walked up the hill-this was on
Winner hill, in West Ashland-and
literally drove Madam Doe out of the
road and into the Stephenson or
chard. These beautiful animals
might easily be made pets, coming,
as they do, so fearlessly right into
town. This one did not run a step
and showed no fear whatever.

After First Sight
Comes Second Siqht

"Brer Shepherd is cited to Blue
Book" Quoted from Ashland Rec
ord.
Mr.. Phipps having recently added
the "prize fighting piano" business
to his implement and hardware store,
being still in the prime of life, and
in full possession of his first eye
sight, last week began to read up on
the piano business and cites C. F.
Shepherd, the local piano dealer, to
a "Blue Book for information con-
cerning a magnificent" Segerstrom
pianoo which he, Mr. Phipps, is Of
fering as a free gift" Now, C. F.
Shepherd, being some older in years
than Mr.. Phipps, and in full possess
sion of his second eyesight, the first
having been entirely destroyed By the
perusal of blue Books" and other
piano literature during the past thir-
ty years, in return 'cites" Mr.. Phipps
to some information about the Seger-
strom piano.
Not many moons since, the Music
Trades of New York city, the most
popular and widely distributed musi-
cal journal in the world, contained
the announcement that the Seger-
strom piano factory had gone into
bankruptcy and at the present time
is in the hands of receivers. Further
more, Mr.. Phipps not only ''cites" but
also endeavors to 'excite" C. F.
Shepherd by making the statement
that the Gerhard, Segerstrom and
Knight-Brinkerhoff pianos can be
found among the twelve leading fac
tories of the United States. There
are some 800 piano factories in the
United States, and according to the
best information G. F. Shepherd has
been able to CLEAN after years of
close study and visits to factories,
he finds nearer at the head of this
list, as leaders, such old and re-
nowned makes as Steinway, Kpabe,
Weber, Chickering, Behning, Crown,
Vose, Everett, Sohmer, Mason and
Hamlin, and many others. The
piano which C. F. Shepherd is offer
ing for $12O does not appear among
such leaders as given above and |
classified by piano experts, yet he
claims it is same in quality, in wood |
and mechanism" as the one being |
used by Mr.. Phipps as a free gift
offering.
Mr.. Phipps, again using his first"
eyesight, makes the statement that
he paid an advertising agency" $3.50
for this piano, and in boastful and
unkind tone informs c. F. Shepherd |
that this "agency" probably handles
100 pianos to his one. Now, If Mr..
Phipps, an Oregon taxpayer, had
given Mr.. Shepherd, also an Oregon
taxpayer, this $3.50, then G. F. Shep-
herd could have bought two pianos
which he claims are the same in
quality, in wood and mechanism as
the one bought through the agency"
and Mr.. Phipps would then have had
sufficient ammunition to fire the two
shots which may put the local piano
dealer out of commission for all
time, for Mr.. Phipps has made the
statement that he wants to give away
another piano as soon as he disposes
of the one he now has, and offers to
sign an order for one at 1920 with
c. F. Shepherd. The writer is not
