Drowned.

Tuesday evening Joseph Champaign,
his wife and daughter, were returning
from Roseburg to their home in French
settlement. They attempted to cross
the south Umpqua river at what is
known as Cenn's ford, some FIVE miles
below Roseburg. The river had swol-
len from the melting snow in the
mountains. When well out IN the
stream the current caught the wagon
and turned it on its side, thrc wing all
the parties into the river. Mr.. Cham
paign held to the lines and the team
brought him and the wagon out on the
island on the side Of the river where
they had started into the stream. The
young lady got hold of box and man
aged to keep herself ahoat until she got
ashore, by catching hold of some will
lows, a half mile below the fold.
Mrs. Champaign was drowned and
the body remained in the water until
about noon Thursday, when it was
found in deep water, about mile below
the for6, where the accident occurred.
Mrs. Champaign was lady well known
in the country and had large circle of
acquaintances and friends. The entire
community is shocked and grieved at
this sad accident.

JESSE AppLEGATE the sage of Yoncalla
was delegate from Douglas chunty to
the late republican state convention
His name is insereral'y linked with the
early history of Oregon. There are in
the state archives at Salem, two letters
dated in the year 1914, during the joint
occupancy of Oregon by the United
States and Great Britain. One is
from Jesse Applegate to Thos Fl
Benton, then U. s. senator from
Missouri and the other Bsuton's reply.
That correspondence made the great
senator Oregon's steadfast friend and
secared his mighty influence in fixing
the boundary line separating British
Columbia from what was then Oregon

SAN Francisco, April %, 1884.
G1o. W. JONES, ESQ.
Your favor of the 18th inst. just to
hand. The medical gentlemen at
Roseburg, or rather, those who have
expressed their polite opinion as to the
fraudulency of my report on the Eldo-
rado water, have been at great pains to
express their sublime ignorance of. ele-
mentarY chemistry, in what they say
respecting iodine.
| really could not have believed that
any graduate in medicine could posi-
bly, be so astoundingly ignorant. Had
they taken the trouble to look in.o any
textbook on chemistry they would
have found something to the following
effect: Iodine is found in nature in
combination with metals, forming To-
dides, which occur in both the organic
and inorganic (or mineraD kingdoms,
having been detected in sea water, sea-
plants and animals, and in many min
eral springs Iodine has also been
found, in small quantities, in Chill
saltpetre, and, on this coast, in combi-
nation with silver; in lead ores, also
In dolomitic limestone, and in every
deposit of rock salt. It has even been
found in COAL It occurs in few land
and fl water plan is, and in many
sea animals, as sponses and oysters;
also IN cod-liyer oil.
Both iodine and bromine, as iodides
and bromides, are constituents OF the
leading mineral springs of Europe.
Among these may be mentioned the
celebrated waters of Kreutznach,
Dierkheim, Krankenhsil. Adelheids,
Quolle, Challes, i'll Savoy. and Castle
Cave, in Italy. The celebrated Wood
hall Spa, in England, contains as much
as .35 grains of iodide of potassium per
rint of water, which is equivalent to a
little over a quarter of q gain of
iodine
There are several springs in the east
ern States known to contain iodine.
Prof. Rogers of Philadelphia, states,
in reporting on mineral water from
Monroe county, Pennsylvania: cit
has been very minutely analysed and
is the 6rst of all of the waters in which
I was enabled to detect traces of 10
dine, which it contains in larger
amounts chan the old spring, and, in
deed, than most of the other water in
which | have been so fortunate as 70
discover this material. The presence
Of larger quantity of iodine in this
spring points it out as a superior agent
in many affections for which iodine is
successfully employed"
There are several springs in Califor-
MIA containing iodine, many of which
have myself analysed. I will only
mention here the celebrated springs Of
Paso Rebles.
I think I have said enough in sup
port OF my assertion that iodine does
occur in the mineral world, the emf
nent and learned medicos of Rosebure
to the contrary Notwithstanding.

or at least coin silver. Of course there
is no telling with absolute certainty
where the medal came from. But the
pipe, the tomahawk, the military cuff
and the naked arm and the words

dent that it was intended to commem-

OF Indians. AS matter of history, O
treaty of peace was made between the
government and the Delaware Indians
sometime in 1929. A few years later
those tribes were removed to a reser-

ly probable that this medal was
