Jackson County to
Get $4,000; Roads

The Oregon state highway commits
sion met at Salem Tuesday and ap-
portioned the highway fund for this
year. Fifty thousand dollars each
were allotted to Jackson, Hood River
and Columbia counties, while lesser
amounts were given to Douglas, Clat-
sop, Josephine and Washington, MAX
ing total of 100000. State aid
was given only to those counties that
had bonded themselves for road
work.
1t would appear that Jackson
county will lose the 5000 appropri-
ated last year and it is understood
that this amount is to go to Jose
phine county. The appropriation of
this fund will lead to a continuance
of the WORK started last year. Wheth-
er or not any more hard surface work
will be done this year will be decided
later.

Auto SmaSheS Rig
Near V00rhieS

Careless and speedy driving on the
Pacific highway Tuesday evening was
the cause and result of an auto and
rig accident. One of the autos of the
Alec Taxi Company of Medford start
ed to pass a rig on the highway near
Voorhies and large car coming from
the opposite direction endeavored to
go between the first mentioned car
and rig. The driver was going at a
high rate of speed, and misjudging
his distance his fender caught the
hub of the buggy and turned it COM
pletely over. BY some chance both
of the occupants of the rig escaped
uninjured. The name of the driver
of the big car is not known, but the
police have the number of the car and
an investigation is being made.

Working Hard For
Dead Indian Road

H. G. Enders was IN klamath Falls
last week as a member of the Com
mercial Club committee which is
boosting for new road to Pelican
Bay via the Dead Indian country. He
says klamath Falls people feel very
kindly toward the proposition-not
only merchants who realize that such
road would bring our fruits in and
take their grain out but by the sports
men and autoists and others who
look upon the road as contributing
to the public pleasure. The Klamath
Falls Herald says:
with a view TO getting assistance
here for the road the Ashland Com
mercial Club proposes to have built
over the Dead Indian route from Ash
land to the Lake of the Woods and
Pelican Bay, thus opening Crater
Lake, Upper klamath Lake and other
scenic points in klamath county to
Ashland tourists, Fl. G. Enders, one
of the committee in charge of the
project, is here from Ashland.
According to Mr.. Enders, Ashland
people are subscribing from $25 to
500 each toward the construction of
the road. Besides this, twenty-five
or more men have volunteered to do
some work on the highway. What
Klamath county people will be will
ing to do toward this project will be
determined shortly. There is a pos
sibility of help from the county court,
as there is some money on hand from
forest reserve, timber sale, which is
to be used in road building in forest
reserve territory within the county
and a portion of the Ashland-Klam-
ath route IL through government tim
ber lands.
Besides the tourist advantages to
both Ashland and klamath, Mr.. En-
ders points out possible commercial
advantages. He believes that this
route, which is less than the Green
Springs mountain road, can be used
advantageously in marketing Jackson
county fruit in klamath county, and
Klamath county. potatoes and grain
in Jackson county"

Appreciated BY
Vincent AStOr

In a recent communication to the
set forth the steps taken by Vincent
Astor, the heir to John Jacob Astor's
millions, to become a fullfledged
orchardist, and also to his many be-
nevolent acts to the poor of the
crowded slums of New York city-a
copy of the Tidings was sent NJ. Astor
and has, through his secretary, in
voked the following appreciative ac-
acknowledgement from the scion of i'm
mense possessions:
"23 West 26th STREET,
New York, March 27, 1915.
"Mr: H. G. Gilmore, 2S3 Scenic Drive,
Ashland.
Dear Sir: l wish to acknowledge
the receipt of your letter of March
II which you addressed to Mr.. Astor
care the Rev. Sidney E. USHER. Mr..
Astor is not now in New York, but
l wish to thank you in his behalf for
both your letter and the Ashland It'd
ings containing notices which l am
sure will be much appreciated both
by Mr.. and Mrs. Astor.
Yours sincerely,
"WM. A. DOBBYN, Secretary"
1t may, perhaps, be mentioned that
Mr.. and Mrs. Astor and party have
just reached San Francisco from New
York in their magnificent yacht, the
Norma, passing through the Panama
canal, and that they are being very
much lionized whenever discovered in
their ramblings through the exposi-
tion buildings and around the endless
stretches of enchanting scenery and
floral embellishments.

University Cast
Presents PLAY

Wanted-One boy with a talent for
amateur acting as a "supe" in My
Nan and Lady"
A chance for an Ashland youngster
TO be a real live actor for one night
will come on Saturday, April II,
when cast OF ten from the Univers-
ity of Oregon will put on MY Man
and Lady" under auspices of the
senior class of the Ashland high
school. The university students are
to receive only their expenses, the
class retaining the profits. The pro-
duction will be directed by Professor
Archibald f. Reddie, who is well
known in Ashland as a reader, and
who was in charge of the university
cast that last spring made such a
good impression in Ashland with
"Huck Finn"
My Man and Lady" is the story
of gentleman burglar in New York,
who with his force operates only in
the homes Of the wealthy, and whose
regeneration is brought about by a
complication of circumstances, in
which a young woman and the bur
glars father, whose home he had de-
serted about twenty years before, are
figures.
The cast in this play Is considered
superior to that of the ordinary trav-
cling troupes, embodying, as it does,
the pick OF the talent among the
thousand students at the university.
While 1t has been customary for the
graduating class to put on a class
play, 1t was deemed advisable on ac-
count of this chance to secure high
class entertainment, and the fact that
a class play calls for so much OF the
time, to invite the uni
versity players here, and Ashland
people should eccord the production
their patronage.
Austos will run from downtown.
Seats are on sale at Rose Brothers.
Reserved seats 35 cents. General ad-
25 cents

Wheels Spin With
Car Upside Down

An auto belonging to Mr.. Sanders
of the greenhouse turned completely
over while coming down the hill from
Vista street Tuesday. Mr.. Sanders
was taking the short cut from Vista
street to Beach avenue and got off
the road. In trying to turn back the
car turned turtle. The engine ran for
several seconds at full speed and the
wheels buzzed merrily. Mr.. Sanders
through stroke of luck escaped un-
hurt beyond few minor bruises. The
car was bent up a little as to tenders
and hood, but after being righted
was taken to the garage on its own
power.
This is about the steenth auto acct
detn in and around the city during
the past few months. No lives have
been lost as yet.

Civic Improvement
Club MET Tuesday

The Civic Improvement Club met
Tuesday afternoon at the library with
a goodly number OF members in at
tendance. One hundred and twenty
five new members have been added
to the club since the last election Of
officers. The club is getting bigger
every day and is perfecting smoother
executive systems, thus getting more
work done with less effort.
The bulb exchange reports that
they have handled hundreds of plants
and bulbs, so many in fact that they
could not keep track of the exact
numbers. A more thorough report
will be made later concerning this de-
partment OF the clubs Identification
work.
The Auxiliary club report that the
work of installing lights and paper
hanging has been donated and that
work on their home (the c. B. Wat
son residence) is progressing finely.
The ladies of the Auxiliary request
that since trading stamps will not be
obtainable after a few weeks and as
there will necessarily De a number OF
people who will be unable to fill their
books, that all who have such un-
filled books turn them in at Provost's
store and they will be used in getting
furniture For the club house.
The Odd Fellows have voted the
free use of their hall 20 the club five
times during the year for social pur-
poses.
The Civic Club will hire a girl and
put her in charge of the distribution
of flowers to tourists at the depot this
summer.
The club is getting behind the cam
paiGn against files and have induced
Mr. A. l.. Lamb to Duild fly traps
and sell them at actual cost These
traps may be had for 80 cents or 60
cents, coming in two sizes. Every
one is urged to purchase at least one
and put it where il will do the most
good.
Considerable reluctance in fixing
park rows has been evidenced by res
idents OF streets where there is no
curbing put in. According to En-
gineer Walker it is not necessary to
wait for the installation OF curbing
as the owner can either put in board
curbing or merely level it off and
plant sod.

Hard Frost On
Tuesday Night

The frost Tuesday night and We'd
nesday morning was one of the long
est that the valley has seen for sew
eral years. The pots were lit in the
majority of the orchards in the lower
valley about 1880 and were used con-
tinually until Z in the morning. The
cost of the smudging is figured as
about $4,000, The damage done was
slight, being confined only to those
orchards that did not smudge. The
lowest temperature registered was on
the Holloway tract, "a degrees.
In the Ashland district little harm
was done by the frost, as near as can
be ascertained. The cherries have
suffered worse than anything else so
far.

Tagging Syst. :
Proves a S, ~ IS
The tagging system by IT,

The tagging system by til %
police in an effort to enfort %
street ordinances in regard to .dto-
lists is provign to be a decided sue
cess and violations of the various
regulations are much fewer in num-
Der as a result.
When an auto violates one of the
minor regulations and the patrolman
cannot find the owner of the car a
tag is fastened to the wheel stating
the nature Of the ordinance which
has been violated and asking the Of
fender to call at the station. At the
station he is given a copy of the auto
ordinance and warned against fur.
ther violations. Ordinarily no fine is
imposed for any of the minor viola
tions, such as lights being out OF
cars on wrong side of the street, but
upon second violation of the ordi.
nance a fine is imposed. All cal
owners who find tags on their cars
should call at the station at the eaf+
lest possible time. The patrolmer
take the number of the car and fail.
ure to call will cause trouble for the
owner.
Some of the clauses which are vic.
lated oftenest are in regard to lights
stopping on the wrong side of the
street or within twenty feet of fire
hydrant or plaza corners, for leaving
standing between Mill and Water
streets for a period exceeding ten
minutes, for lack of proper license
number, and for leaving engine run
ming while car is unoccupied.
Speeding is not a minor offense
and will be dealt with according tC
the law.
Other provisions of the ordinance
which are often violated prohibit bi
cycle riders from hanging onto the
rear of autos or motorcycles an(
from riding without at least one hant
on the handlebars.
A copy of the motor ordinance may
be had from any police officer, ant
every automobile driver or bicycl,
rider in Ashland should secure a cop.
and read it carefully. Such actor
will save a possible trip to the police
station.

Will Haul Gravel
BY Auto Trucks

The county court has awarded the
contract for hauling the buckshot
gravel from McAndrews Hill to Will
liam Holmes OF Griffin Creek, who
will do the work by auto truck. Valley
teamsters also bid on the job, but
their figures were higher than those
for auto truck so in the interest of
economy the contract was let as
above.
The county court can now deter
mine with accuracy the exact cost of
road construction.
"Our policy" said Commissioners
Frank Madden last night, will be to
put all the main roads OF the county
in as good condition as possible in
stead of spending everything on any
one road. We have enough gravel
in McAndrews hill to cover the entire
county.

Should Campaign
Against Deadly Fly

Ashland should start a thorough
campaign against the fly Moreover
it should be instiGated at once. The
school children should be enlisted in
the fly war, the housewives and citi.
zens. People must overcome the feel
ing that flies are not so bad after al.
and should realize the enormous po-
tentiality for evil OF which Giles are
capable. Having done this, the peo-
pie must be convinced that a flyless
town is possible.
Many persons do not really think
flies are very nasty. They fish them
out of milk and gravy, but they eat
the gravy and drink the milk. Con-
vince them that the fly is deadly.
Remember always the motto, Go
operative good will" You can chase
the same fly all summer but you have
to catch it only once. Better let ii
catch itself. Begin early; one pair
in April may mean millions of flies in
July.
A great campaign against the fly
is about to begin in Portland, with
local organizations and health Off
cials in charge and the University of
Oregon helping in an advisory way.
School children are to make 1000 fly
traps and innumerable fly nets. Sev-
eral upstate cities have asked for trap
models and advice.

Steel Would Change
Name Of Park

Superintendent Steel of the Crater
Lake park has sent the following
communication to Secretary Lane,
suggesting that the discoverer of
Crater Lake be commemorated by
remaining Glacier peak in his honor
as Hillman peak:
april 3, 1915.
"The Secretary Of the Interior, Wash
ington, D. c.
Sir: 1t is with sincere regret that
| have to inform you of the death at
Hope Villa, La, on March 10, 1915,
of John w. Hillman, who on June
II, 1853, discovered Crater Lake.
He was the leader of a party of
twenty-five prospectors, of whom he
was the first to see it,
Now, therefore, recommend that
the name Glacier peak, applied to one
of the highest points on the western
rim of the lake, be changed to Hill
man peak, and in justification thereof
will say, one of the most important
mountains of the state of Washington
is known as Glacier peak, as also in
the state Of California, thus leading
to unnecessary confusion, and at least
ont OF them should be changed. Such
a change would also be a deserved
ana appropriate recognition of, the
first white man who ever saw Crater
Lake, and for whom some prominent
point should be named.
Very sincerely,
WILL G. STEEL,
Superintendent.

New Bishop Visits
Ashland Church

Sunday evening Trinity Episcopal
church of Ashland was honored with
a visit from the Right Rev. w. T.
Sumner, recently consecrated Bishop
of Oregon The bishop, accompanied
by Archdeacon Chambers, arrived on
che evening train and conducted only
the one service. The church was pack
ed to it's capacity, chairs being placed
in the aisle to accommodate late
comers. A choir of twelve voices fur
nished good music, special Easter
numbers being used. In his address
the bishop showed himself to be a
man of force who does not mince
matters or hesitate to express his con-
victions. He is a man of very pleas
ing personality, congenial with all
classes of people. Monday morning
parish gathering was held in the
parish house, at which the bishop
spoke more informally. He outlined
plans for the worl; in Ashland and
spoke of the possibility of resident
vicar. No definite promise was made
for the immediate future, but in all
probability Trinity will have a vicar
in the course OF few months. At
noon a delicious luncheon was served,
shortly after which Bishop Sumner
and Archdeacon Chambers left for
Medford, where the afternoon and
evening were spent with the members
OF st. Marks parish.

Engineer Bell Arrives and
Work On Springs Goes Forward

Engineer Bell of Smith, Emery &
Co. arrived here from Saratoga yes
terday morning and has been going
over the Ashland project with Mr.
Emery.
He went into the Saratoga matter
thoroughly with Mr. Anthony and
found him very courteous and pains
taking in showing him over the Sara
toga development. Most of the mil
lion-dollar appropriation already
made by the state of New York has
been CONSUMED in the purchase Of
land and boring for additional min
eral water, MIR. Bell says he saw
more mineral water here yesterday

than Saratoga can produce in twenty
years, The flow Of our springs here
far exceeds those OF Saratoga both
in mineral waters and gas.
Nh Bell will assist Mr.. Emery on
the work here until completed. He
is specialist in handling waters, es-
pecia!ly of the carbon dioxide and
alkaline variety.
Work on the springs development
will start tomorrow.

All members of the Ashland band
urged to be present at the city hall
tomorrow evening for band practice.
Important business will be discussed.
The matter o. a paid leader and an
effective band organization has been
favorably received by everyone, but
no organization seems anxious to take
the initiative in the matter.
The idea of weekly afternoon band
concerts inshe park during the sum-
