chirruped Clarissa Eileen. It was evil
dent that she held Lanstron in high
favor.
Let me hear you say your name, "
said Lanstron.
Clarissa Eileen was triumphant. She
had been waiting for days with the
revelation when he should make that
old request Now she enunciated 1t
with every vowel and consonant cor
rectly and primly uttered; indeed, she
repeated 1t four or FIVE times in proof
of complete mastery.
"A pretty name. I've often wondered
how you came to give 1t to her." said
Lanstron to Minna.
"You do like It'll" exclaimed Minna
with girlish eagerness. II gave her

Proceeding leisurely along the main
path Of the first terrace, Lanstron fol-
lowed 1t past the rear of the house to
the old tower. Long ago the moat that
surrounded the castle had been filled

lay against the background of a mat

were piled on a round table covered

"Hellol" Lanstron called softly.
"Hellol" he called louder and yet
louder.
Receiving no answer, he retraced his
steps and seated himself on the second
terrace In a secluded spot In the
shadow of the first terrace wall, where
he could see anyone coming up the
main flight Of steps from the road.
When Marta walked she usually came

Colonel Ray Promotes
Springs Project
(Mail Tribune.)


Further steps to secure the devel-
opment of the natural mineral
springs of Jackson county particu-
larly those located near Ashland,
have been taken by the county court,
which extended moral support to the
promotion of any project backed by
Colonel Frank H. Ray of New York
and capital he enlists. The city of
Ashland has already bonded itself for
the sum of $4,000 in the develop
ment of the lithia springs, but this
amount is hardly a drop in the buck
ct for the amount needed to bring
out every feature of the natural Won
ders. The petition was prepared and
presented by e. ]. Liljegram. Pri-
vate capital, it is argued, could make
the Rogue River Valley the play
ground OF the world"
The petition states for years tour
lists have flocked to the springs OF
Europe, INFERIOR IN ingredients to
those undeveloped near Ashland, ana
that the European war has left
thousands of tourists with no water
Ing resort, or none for some time to
come. The curative powers of the
Ashland springs are set forth as ex-
ceeding those of the old world, and
that all that is needed is private cap
ital to grasp these opportunities for
wealth. The building of a great tour
ist hotel and recreation grounds with
bathing facilities is planned, as a lure
to travellers.
The petition is signed by the coun-
ty court, and definite action is ex-
pected upon 1t soon.

VICIOUS BULL KILLS
AGED MAN NEAR KERRY

Grants Pass Courier: Alexander
OLaughlin, an aged man employed
on the farm of Mrs. Mary Leonard,
between Kerby and Holland, was
killed by a vicious Jersey bull Fri
day. The bull was in the corral at
the barn, and OLaughlin was seen
by Raphael Leonard, who was in a
field nearby, to climb upon a fence
and prod the bull with a pitchfork
The old man fell from the fence into
the corral, and was attacked by the
infuriated animal, which struck him
a fearful blow in the breast. Leon
ard at once came to the rescue and
got the injured man out of the in
closure and TO the house, but the in
jury. was so severe that OLaughlin
died half an hour later, his chest
being crushed in. The bull was
known to be a vicious animal and
had been dehorned.

Stranger Sells
Saddle and Skips

A saddle, a horse and the "un-
known stranger" were the principals
in a little drama which has left an
Ashland groceryman holding the
sack" A suave and plausible gentle
man who gave the name of Hum
phries engaged a horse and saddle
from Liveryman Smith, stating that
he was going to take constitutional.
The unknown's constitution may have
been weak, but there was nothing the
matter with his gall. He sold the
saddle to secondhand store for s..
receiving in payment check, which
he cashed at the Plaza grocery after
buying 95 cents worth of groceries.
The horse he turned loose on Fourth
street, where it was found after a
train had departed carrying the
stranger. Mr. Smith relieved the mer-
chant of the saddle, the merchant in
turn stopping payment on the check.
Thus the loss was saddled off on the
groceryman. Talk about high
finance!

Warden Situation
Is Unsettled

Loris Warden, acquitted slayer of
Game Warden Hubbard, is now look
ing for job and has applied to Coun-
ty Commissioner Lever for work.
Martin says that he has no intention
of going to British Columbia, as was
reported.
Local feeling seems to be that Mar
tin failed to get what was coming to
him. The several applicants for the
game, warden job were slightly per-
turbed over the outcome of the trial
and no doubt entertained some doubts
as to the adyisability of taking the
game warden position should it be Of
fered them. The refusal OF the state
game warden to appoint another war
den Cor this district has released
them from any likelihood of having
to resort to safety first" policy of
refusal
A county without a game warden
would be in the same class with a
town without policeman. The game
laws are looked upon by many as an
encroachment on the rights of the in
dividual and are obeyed to the letter
by only a few. AS it is so, II may
easily be seen that with no authority
at all standing between the angler
and the five-inch trout or the hunter
and the doe, game and fish would
soon become extinct.
1t is expected that with the coming
chasEes In the game commission {
warden will probably be appointed
The right kind of man will no doub
be found for the place.

Going Some

F. E. Conway is doing things over

of the finest apartments on the coast.
He has named it the Myrtle Arms"
He has just published a splendid
illustrated booklet of this apartment
showing the rooms, decorations and
roof garden and entertainment hall
on the roof. 1t is four stories high,
besides the roof garden and enter
tainment parlor. 1t is a magnificent
structure. 1t is exactly what Ashland
needs and. after the hotel should be
the first new building erected in Ash
land this summer. The Myrtle Arms
is complete in every detail and as
fine as is to be found in any of the
large cities. 1t cost about fifty thou
sand dollars.
The Tidings has just written to
Mr.. Conway offering to supply we'll

park development. without cost to
him, if he will duplicate the Myrtle
Arms in Ashland this summer, If
any local capitalist desires such an
investment We will supply the plan
and furnish the lot if he will build
it.
Ashland lost much when F. E. Con-
way went away. He will be worth
thousands of dollars to the springs
development if he can be induced to
renew operations here at this time
He knows how to do things, has plen-
ty of capital and will put it into just
the kind of structures Ashland needs

New Auxiliary
Offered Fine Home

Casting about for a club home
from which it's good influences might
radiate and develop according to the
plans of those who have the organiz-
alton in charge, the projectors of the
new Ladies Auxiliary Club have re-
ceived very generous offer from
Judge c. B. Watson, who has kindly
rendered the use of his Vista street
residence, one of the sightliest in the
city, beautifully situated under the
brow of Chautauqua Heights and
with commodious grounds in connec-
tion. The offer, which is only an
other expression of the Watson fam
lily public spirit, will be considered at
a business session of the new club to
be held at the public library Tuesday
afternoon at 2:30 o'clock. Many
ladies of Ashland have already signi-
fled their intention of joining the
new organization, which is to be an
auxiliary of the Civic Improvement
Club, with attractive educational, So
cial, athletic and artistic features.
The purposes of the auxiliary as
briefly set forth are: To work to-
ward country club; to promote the
social life of the young people; to
interest visitors and tourists; to pro-
mote education in the following de-
partments: Dramatics, under compe-
tent instructors; physical training,
under competent instructor, includ-
ing folk dancing, gymnastics, swim
ing, outdoor sports such as hikes, ten
mis-, croquet. In the music line, cho-
ruses, mandolin clubs, musicales, etc,

the club itself will not be neglected,
and it is proposed to add departments
as there is demand for them. The
fees have been made very small, Just
sufficient to carry on the work of
the club as planned, and very much
less than is charged by like organiza-
tions in many other cities,

to be confined to the younger ladies,
but all ages will be welcome, and are
invited to attend the meeting at the
library tomorrow afternoon The

Will Put Drive
Work-Day on Screen

The Pathe Weekly Company, with
whose weekly news pictures every
moving picture theatre patron in
Ashland is familiar, are considering
sending an operator to secure pic
lures of the big citizens work-day
which it is proposed to have when
work on the se-called Kings Highway
is under way. Such a picture would
be seen by millions upon millions of
people throughout the United States
and would be the greatest single ad-
vertisemeIt project that Ashland has
ever secured. The beauty of the
proposition is that it would cost the
city nothing. However, before the
picture people would consider COM
ing here to take the scenes they must
be assured that Ashland people will
turn out in numbers which would
make the event an ep0ch-making one.
The committee appointed by the coun-
ell is making good headway with the
work OF securing the right-of-way for
the drive and expects to have matters
in shape so that work may proceed
within a few weeks. When the drive
is completed Ashland VIII have a
scenic highway second to none.
Crowds of people visited the eastern
portion of the drive, which is now un-
der construction, Sunday, and even
the most conservative "raved" over
the wonderful views obtainable along
the entire course.

Wednesday looking into the matter
of the proposed crossing at Orange

to open up Orange street, which con-
meets Helman with North Main, and
put it through to the district north
of the track. The company wishes
the city to put in either a under or
over grade crossing, which the city
is loath to do owing to the expense
and the fact that the thoroughfare
would be little used. The matter has
been laid before the public service

the longest run of this season in
Chicago, and at the same time
eclipsed all other attractions finan-
cially during the past fifteen days
at the Cort Theatre, San Francisco.
Peg is a little Irish-American girl,
as witty as a character of Thacke-
rays pun; she is as philosophical as
a Balzac jeune file, who has all the
pathos of Dickens persona being
from the hard world of facts, certain
sorrows and evanescent joys, with a
touch OF melancholy SOLDERING the
brightness of her laughter, and with
smiles that tremble for the small ir-
responsible tears behind them. An
altogether human character with a
delightful appeal.
Peg o. My Heart" is the one
sweet and simple little tale in a dra-
matte robe that swerved the produc-
ers over to the old-fashioned love
theme and pitted it's remarkable sue
cess against the more sensational at
fractions of the past year. 1t proved
that New York, Chicago and San
Francisco can still laugh heartily
and sincerely at humor that is not
coarse, and that a simple story direct
ly told is more potent than any plot
fantastic or merely outre.
The entire action Of the play takes
place at Scarboro, England, at Regal
Villa, where there resides the Chi
chesters, an ultra-aristocratic Eng
lish family, relatives OF Pegs on her
mothers side of the house. Peg is
the daughter of a well-born mother
who has been disowned by her fam
lily for her marriage to Pegs father,
good but unfortunate Irish socialist.
and the opening of the play finds Peg
with her dog Michael, having jour,
neyed from America and Pegs faith
er to reside with relatives. The rela-
tives have no love for the child and
are merely taking her to educate Tor
a thousand pounds per annum that IS
offered by the will of wealthy un-
Gle, and therefore the conclusion is
easy to understand.
