Comment MailTribune.com Writer Posted Feb. 21, 2015 at 12:01 AM Posted Feb. 21, 2015 at 12:01 AM »  Social News Feb. 21, 1915 C.C. Beekman, pioneer Jacksonville banker , is dangerously ill. He has been under the weather for several days and is reported much worse, and suffering from hemorrhage of the bowels. On account of his advanced age, he celebrated his 87th birthday Jan. 27, and his 53rd wedding anniversary Jan. 29, fears are entertained for his recovery. His son, Benjamin, has been sent for from Portland.   Loris Martin, game poacher of Trail , indicted Thursday for the murder of Game Warden A.S. Hubbard last December, will be placed on trial Monday, March 1st. The highest penalty that can be meted out to him is life imprisonment, and the lowest third-degree manslaughter. Martin's plea will be self-defense. The petit jury will open its session next Tuesday, the first case to be called being that of the state vs. Ray Toft, charged with perjury in a preliminary case of stolen goods, heard in this city. The cases of Medford saloonkeepers charged with selling liquor to minors, and held in abeyance the last two years, pending the decision of the supreme court in the appeal of Ed G. Brown, will begin Wednesday. Most of the coming week will be devoted by the court to the hearing of civil actions.   Advertisement: The Electric Sign Will Work for You From Sunset to Midnight You quit selling goods at six o'clock (or thereabouts). So do your clerks. But the rent doesn't quit. And your taxes don't quit. Moreover, the people do not go to bed at six. The electric sign and well-lighted show windows show people the way to your store and display and sell goods for you after six o'clock. The very people you want to reach have no time to be on the street except evenings, and goods displayed in the show windows in the evening mean sales the next day. You can use 25 ten-watt lamps in signs or show windows for $2.50 per month. California-Oregon Power Company, 216 West Main Street. Phone 168.
