Mrs. Lanes birthday Mr.. and Mrs.
Lane went calling, Mr.. Lane being in
structed to bring Mrs. Lane home at

guests sat down to delicious repast.
At its close Miss Griswold read a short
poem, Mrs. Taylor made pleasing re-
marks, while Mrs. w. H. Bingham
made a fine presentation speech, eX-
pressing the appreciation of the d. A.
X. s for the untiring energy, the faith
funess and zeal of their beloved regent,
Mrs. Lane, and asking her acceptance
of small token of their regard in the
form of a gold coin buried in a tiny
flower trimmed basket, which was
borne to her on a salver by her small
grandson, Sanford Witherell. The affair
was exclusively D. A. r. function,
but little business was ac-
complished. Mrs. Lane goes to New
York on Thursday to confer with Mrs.
w. T. Porter, the donor of the new
chapter house, and assist in the com

The publicity department has re-
ceived word from Mr.. Frohbach that
the work of installing the Ashland
lithia springs display in the Southern
Oregon exhibit in the Oregon build
ing will be completed about Satur-
day of this week.
This unique representation of
flowing spring ought to attract the
attention of thousands of people from
now until the close of the exposition,
and be an excellent medium Of pub
licity for the city and its attractions
for the tourist. The department will
send down a large supply of the new
glass of water booklet for distribu-
tion as soon as they are off the press
The booklets and the flowing spring
ought to make an impression on all
visitors to the Southern Oregon ex-
hibit, and be very useful in putting
Ashland on the map as a resort city.

the fire department and up to the
court room in the city hall without
subjecting the prisoner to publicity,

Entrance from the rear of the city

jail as stated by the committee which
had the matter in charge, at Tues

the rest room 5000. At one time it
was thought that the Jail would be
moved to the Fourth street fire sta

that it would be necessary to have a
clerk on duty there made the uptown
location the more acceptable.

Ashland's old wooden-celled jail in
the city hall, which faces on the
Plaza and is a constant reminder of
the unpleasant side of life to the
park-bound visitor, is to be no more.
In place Of the iron door and barred
window of the city bastile will be an
inviting entrance to a rest room
which will provide every comfort for

centrally located in the shopping dis

women with children dragging
through a tiresome morning of shop
ping without a chance to sit down.

very entrance to the park, it will
also be handy for park visitors.
The new jail will be located back
of the fire department in a cement

three cells. Two iron cells will be
put in for the present. The Jail will

Touring Car Rolls

morning $50 tons of hay on his ranch
north of Medford burned and in the
afternoon his Packard touring car
rolled over the embankment of the
Siskiyou grade and suffered damages
to the extent of several hundred dol
lars.
The Gore family motored to the
Siskiyous Monday for an outing and
left the auto standing, with brakes
set, while they walked up the road to
eat their lunch. When about 100
yards from the car the brakes re-
leased and the car plunged down the

No More Fireworks
In City Of Ashland

The first boom of the tocsin
which will end in the destruction of
the time-honored custom of allowing
the children of Ashland to blow off
their fingers and toes with firecrack-
ers was sounded Tuesday evening at
council meeting when Mayor John
son asked the council to frame an
ordinance which will prohibit the
sale or use of firecrackers in the city
of Ashland.
The ordinance will take effect in
not less than sixty days, thus giving
dealers plenty of time to dispose of
any fireworks which they may have
left over from the Fourth. The
dealers of Ashland will not be great
ly grieved to hear of the intended
ordinance, as owing to the fact that
no fireworks are allowed on the main
streets, the sales fell off greatly this
year.
Throughout the United States the
custom of sending two million dol
lars up in smoke every year is being
abolished. With the amusement fea-
lures which will be provided in Ash
lands new park, the fireworks will
not be missed.
The really injured party will be,
in his own estimation, the small boy.
We know just how we would have
felt few years ago if one of our
most lookedforward-to pleasures,
that of seeing how near we could
come to blowing our heads off, was
taken away from us. However, youth !
is ever resilient and the joys of the
cannon cracker and the skyrocket |
will soon be forgotten.
Far beyond any mercenary consid-
erations stands the one great reason
for such a move. The following will
perhaps explain:
Chicago, July 6.-Nineteen persons
dead and 9O3 injured was the ma
tons sacrifice to the two days cele-
bration of the Fourth of July, ac-
'ording to corrected figures compiled
1y the Chicago Tribune.
These figures show an increase
over the totals of 1914, when there
we're twelve persons killed and $40 [
injured. A large increase also was
shown in the fire loss, the total for
his year being $239,325, as COM {
Jared with $99,545 last year.
Causes of the fatalities this year
we're distributed as follows: {
Fireworks, nine; cannon, four; {
irearms, four; gunpowder, two. t
In Chicago the celebration was the 4
anest in its history. Only one per-
on was killed and two injured.

not. The temperature climbed up to
9S on one day last month, but cooled
down to SO degrees at night
Fifty-four degrees was the highest
minimum temperature during the
month, thus illustrating clearly the
fact that no matter how warm it gets,
the nights are cool.
