Mail Tribune 100: Feb. 24, 1915 The following news items were drawn from the archives of the Mail Tribune 100 years ago. MailTribune.com Writer Posted Feb. 24, 2015 @ 12:01 am Posted Feb. 24, 2015 @ 12:01 am » Social News p bs:newslist StartDate="20121121" EndDate="p bs:datecalc Months="3"" DateSort="1" UseObjects="1" ObjectClass="81" Taxonomywords="2325,665" ExactTaxonomyMatch="1" Image="1" Count="4" --> Feb. 24, 1915 Jacksonville public schools were ordered closed today on account of a case of smallpox, one of the Coffman children, on order of County Health Officer Golden. The patient, a boy of about 10 years of age, has been complaining for several days, and running around the streets, but not going to school. The restaurant run by the boy's mother has been quarantined. The infection is supposed to have been transmitted from Gold Hill, where the sick boy's brother has been a sufferer from "Manila itch," as the disease is locally termed, which is pronounced a light form of smallpox.   Final tribute to the memory of C.C. Beekman , of Jacksonville, pioneer and banker, will be paid tomorrow afternoon, when all that is mortal of one of southern Oregon's leading citizens will be laid to rest. The funeral services will be under the auspices of Warren lodge No. 10, F.F. & A.M.   The first of the Medford liquor cases , hanging fire in the courts for two years, will be called in the circuit court this afternoon. The defendants are J.H. Bell and Jack Sheridan of the Nash Hotel company, charged with selling liquor to minors. Similar charges are filed against nine other saloon owners. The action was first brought two years ago, when an Ashland youth under age, but representing himself to be 21 years, purchased liquor at nine Medford bars. Afterward indictments were returned. Ed G. Brown of this city was first put on trial, and through his attorney raised the issue that an employer was not responsible for the act of his employee, and that any violation of the law was made without his sanction. The case was appealed to the Supreme Court, that body recently holding that a saloonkeeper was responsible for the acts of his agent.     MailTribune.com Writer Posted Feb. 24, 2015 @ 12:01 am » Comment or view comments /* $( document ).ready(function() { // Jquery mobile is trying to style the button and leaving a blank gry button on top of a white button $("#viafouracoms .vf-comment-controls li.vf-right").html(' Submit '); });*/ » STAY INFORMED Email NewsLetter Sign Up Today Sign up for our newsletter and have the top headlines from your community delivered right to your inbox. calendar Connect with MailTribune.com Facebook Twitter RSS Back to top Reader Services Reader Services Home Subscriptions Subscriber controls Contact us Submissions Photos Events Letters to the editor Corrections Announcements Obituaries Story ideas Since you asked Alerts Email Alerts RSS Feeds Text Alerts Advertise Media Kit Home Products and services Ad rates Advertising contacts Mail Tribune Daily Tidings The Nickel Shop Our Valley Blogs Stay Informed Email newsletter Sign Up Today Sign up for our newsletter and have the top headlines from your community delivered right to your inbox.
