Yesterdays EVENTS

All who have heard that Welsh
people can sing were assured OF
this after hearing the concert
given by the Royal Welsh Lady
Singers at Chautauqua yesterday
afternoon. This company OF
eight stars delighted the audience
With their musical numbers vary
ing in style sufficiently to suit all
classes. The Royal Welsh ladies
lett very good impression with
the majority of their audience
and receive hearty applause IN
their concert work and solos. They
made particular attractive ap-
rearance at the evening prelude
last night when they appeared in
their picturesque native custume
and sang as their first number
their national hymn in Welsh.
/ Judge Alden, in his lecture.
"rhe Needs Of the Hour" struck
a responsive chord in the minds
OF his hearers by his strong force
lul methods OF making state
ments, which in themselves wera
not new, but We're presented in a
manner to impress the public and
make them view ideas from a dill
ferent angle. This lecture dealt
on questions social. political, do
nestle and religious. and the
/ speaker thrilled his audience with
lls flights Of eloQuence one mo-
ment, while cOnyulsing them with
mirth the next. Judge Alden re-
lieyed the tension on the minds of
his audience by not referring to
| the political upheayal with which
the press is filled at the present
time, and which made his address
all the more appreciated.
This afternoon will be given
over to the tennis tournament and
out of doors recreations in order
to allow the ChautauQua auditor
iGIG to be used for fitting the big
dramatic event foy tonight-the
Maurice Players in the famous
drama, "Kindling," which prom
ises to be the leading entertain
ment feature OF the ChautauQuG

CITY HAS GREAT
ADVANTAGES FOR
CAMP MEETING

"The more see of Ashland the
mere impressed | am with the op
p0rtunity she offers for summer
camp meeting" remarked DR.. S.
A. DanfOrd, superintendent Of the
klamath district of the Methodist
church. Dr.. Danford has been
greatly interested in inaugu-
rating big camp meeting for
Southern Oregon, which he says is
bound to come, and no place is
as well fitted for 1t as Ahsland al
ready possesses.
1--WE have here the Chautauqua
auditorium, splendid camping fa-
cilities, climate and everything
under the sun conducive to pro-
noting a summer camp meeting" "
DR.. Danford remarked. Think
of the advantages here over camp
ing in the east. We have no thun-
der storms coming up unexpected
ly in the night, no humid heat, no
mosquitoes, no drenching dews-
why, people can sleep out without
even a tent il they want to here"
DR.. Danford compared Ashland
with Mount Vernon, Ohio, where
lie had been instrumental in in
augurating permanent summer
camp meeting. That town is no
larger than Ashland. but the camp
meeting brings in 5000 people or
more each year, who spend sew
eral weeks, and this town has
nothing over Ashland as an in
ducement to establish a perma-
nent summer camp in its midst

Captain w. NJ. Briggs also sent
d telegram last night to Rev. c..
A. Edwards of this city apprising
him of the accident and asking
him to notify the parents of the
young man. He also stated he
would wire further information
regarding the conveyance of the
body to his home in Ashland. Mr.,
Edwards broke the sad news to
the bereaved parents, to whom
the sympathy of the entire city is
extended.
Ralph Fraley was the youngest
of Mr.. and Mrs. Fraley's four
boys, all of whom served their
country during the world war.
Ralph was among the first of the
boys to go out from Ashland, and
enlisted with the old First com
pany when they were sent to Fort
Stevens in 1917. He later went
oveI to France with the 69th regi-
ment and was in that country in
the army for six months. After
being discharged from service he
had been working with his father
Street Commissioner c. w. Fra
ley. With B company Ralph left
nearly two weeks ago for Camp
Lewis to attend the annual en-
campment of the Oregon National
Guard. Only few days remain
OF what was to the boys a pleas
ulable vacation, but which has
been darkened by this frightlul
tragedy that has befallen one of
their comrades.
A message was received in Ash
land today at about o'clock
from First Sergeant H. 7. Elmore
stating that detail with the
body of the unfortunate young,
Ashland man will arrive here to-

neral will be held. Earl j. Fra
ley, a brother of the unfortunate
young man who was killed, is wllhl

FIRST PROGRAM OF
CHAUTAUQUA FINE

CHAUTAUQuA FINE
The twenty-eighth annual ses-
sion of the Southern Oregon
Chautauqua started last evening
with an exceedingly fine program
and a very poor patronage of Ash
land and valley residents. While
hopes are entertained that the peo-
PIE of Ashland will rally to the
support of the association and at
tend during the coming days, the
management feels dubious as to
the financial showing at the close
Of the weeks sessions. Opening
the session last night was the pre-
lude by Madame Arloine Scutti,
a remarkable contralto singer who
is spending the summer in Med
ford. Madame Scutti has
charming and sympathetic voice,
and was most gracious in her pre-
sentations and responded readily
to the encores giyer her.
julius Caesar Nayphe, a Greek
entertainer, presented "The Or
iental Pageant" descriptive lee
ture of the life and customs of
the Near East. Accompanying
him on the stage was a group of
young women in the gorgeous
costumes of the Orient, illustrat-
ing in fascinating and enter
tanning manner the interesting
points Of his lecture. This young
man is student of theology in
enc of the eastern sominaries, and
is spending the summer in this
manner. His lecture was an at
tfactive expose of the lives and
customs of our neighbors in the
Orient, of which we know so lit
tie.
This afternoons program in
cludes musical numbers by the
picturesque Alaskan Duo, and a
lecture by Carlton Chamberlayne
on the subject, Tomorrow" This
evening will be the great lecture
by +. B. Fish, who will present
the subject, "The Cure for Social
Unrest" This will be preceded
by concert by the Alaskan Duo
Both these programs are of un-
usual merit and are worthy of
a large patronage. 1t is to be
hoped that the people of the val
ley will respond to the coming
sessions of the Chautauqua and
give patronage worthy of the
merits of the event.

Galveston, Texas, June 22.-bathihs cults this year are more colorful and bizarre than in any preceding year m the history of the beach. Silk and wooden one-piece suits, daringly cut and with a goodly portion of the back left open, are the popular styles.
 Beach costumes. as they are known. are much more pretentious. These include parasol, cape, sash, ha1 hose and sandals the cost of which ranges from $25 to $200.
 According to bathing house proprie- tors women are not alone in their love for bright colors, for this years crop of men bathers show a predi- lection for yellows, purple, green black and white stripefand red and black stripe for swimming suits.
 Stockings, as part of womens bathing toggery, have disappeared from the beach and have given place to bare legs and half hose. A ma iority of the women prefer to wear neither sandals nor hose in their surf bathing.

NEGOTIATIONS
WITH JAPAN
Department Of State Seeks to Avoid
Conflict Over Proposed Call
fornia State Law on Land
Holding.

limited Press Leased Wire Service.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 23.-The
state department, in negotiations
with Ambassador Shidehara of Japan,
will maintain the position of the
United States as now set forth in the
Lansing-Ishii agreement, officials said
today. By this agreement Japan
voluntarily undertakes to prevent her
citizens from coming to this country.
The department, it was made clear,
will do it's best to avoid conflict IN
the negotiations, which were brought
about by the Japanese protest against
the proposed California state law pro
hibiting land holding by Japanese.
1t was suggested that in the event
the negotiations failed to settle the
California controversy, the japanese
might have recourse to the American
supreme court in an effort to over
throw the California law as unconsti-
tutiOnal.
