snxar Beet Cnltnra.

Medford, Or, Feb. "a mass meet.
ing was held at the opera-house yester-
day afternoon, for the purpose of max
ing arrangements for testing sugar-beet
raising in this valley. A large num-
Der of farmers were present, and about
seventy-five have consented to put out
quarter of an acre each for the pur-
pose of ascertaining the amount of
beets the soil in this vicinity will pro-
duce, and also the amount of sugar the
beets contain. Merchants of this city
have subscribed sufficient amount to
procure the necessary seed for making
the test, SO that the farmers will only
be out the use of the land. If the test
is favorable, parties in San Francisco
stand ready to put in factory of suff-
cient capacity to use all the beets pro-
duced in this valley.

Ice Georges ON the mississippi.

Louisville, Feb. 9.-An ice gorge,
fifteen feet high and twenty miles long,
which has been forming for several
days, gave way this afternoon. Several
New Orleans and Memphis packets
have been caught in the ice and COM
PEELED to lay up. If these have not
succeeded in finding refuge in the tribu-
taries, the loss may be large. A tele-
phone message from the scene tonight
states that the Buckeye State ran into
Blue river to escape the ice. The wa
ter in Blue river quickly rose with the
passing gorge and quickly receded, leav-
ing the steamer stranded On the shore.
Her pilot house and smokestack were
demolished, and it is now thought she
will be total loss. Her value is $40,-

pany, of this city, and the Bellingham
Bay Improvement Company, of New
Whatcom, will not join.

of Senator Hill.
Washington, Feb. 6.-The session Of
the senate today was one of unusual ac-
tivity, with sharp colloquies and vigor-
GUS speeches, which drew large crowds
in the galleries. The ball was set roll
ing early in the day when Morrill, en-
deavored to pass the bill prohibiting
the use of intoxicating drinks in the
;apitol building. This aroused the op-
position of Hill, who denounced the
busybodies and mischief-makers in
spring this class of legislation. The
senator spoke for fullest enjoyment of
individual liberty consistent with the
common. good. The speech was not
only notable for the vigor which Hill
threw into it, but also for its effect in
prolonging the debate until O'Clock,
when the bill was displaced by the
Nicaragua bill. The immigration bill
was committed to conference, Lodge,
in charge Of the measure, adopting
this course as a result of urgent appeals
for modification of the bill. Before
this was done, however, a warm per-
sonal and political colloquy occurred
between Lodge and Chandler, on one
hand and German on the other. Villas
added another day to his speech against
the Nicaragua canal bill, and had not
concluded when the senate adjourned.

Event.

Charleston, S. c., Feb. 9.-The
steamer Fern, the first of the blockade
fleet, reached here today.from Hampton
roads. The flagship New York, the
battleship Maine, cruiser Columbia and
Monitor Amphitrite, which left Hamp-
ton roads with the Fern, are expected

in all probability be here within the
next few days, when the great mimic
blockade of Charleston harbor is sched-
uled to begin. Arrangements are in
progress for the entertainment of the
naval officers. A number Of commit
tees have been appointed, and navy
officials as well as leading officers Of

pitable reception. It is intended to
give ball and receptions during the
blockade maneuvers. Secretary Her
bert and Colonel Farrow will be guests
of the chamber of commerce, which

ing the blockade one of the largest
crowds ever assembled here.

EolsoN's NEW DISCOVERY.
With the New Invention Surgeons Can
Gee Through the Body.

With the New Invention Surgeons Can
Zee Through the Body.
New York, Feb 10.-Thomas A.
Edison is about to give to the world
another discovery as wonderful in it's
way as the Horoscope, by means of
which he puts the K rays to practical
use in revealing the bony structure Of
the body.
SIT was," said he, "the action Of
the K ray on crystals of platinocyanide
of barium which caused Roetgen to
make the original discovery. Imme-
diately afterwards 1 discovered that
tungstate of calcium was more power
full, and constructed practical instru-
ment for utilizing the crystals in con-
nection with the x ray. Tungstate of
calcium is not sufficiently sensitive to
transform the strange light discovered
by Roentgen to light that would SO
illuminate the interior of the human
body as to render its most delicate tis-
sues visible, in other words, to make it
transparent.
Mr.. Edison set about to find a crystal
which would possess the quality. He
has discovered one. Its name he will
not yet reveal, saying he is still expert
menting with it, and desires to exhaust
it's possibilities before announcing it to
the world.
By means of newly discovered crys-
tails Edison will now disclose to the eye
of surgeons organs and tissues that have
hitherto been seen only in the dissect-
ing room. 1t is probable that when he
perfects his new discovery the slightest
arrangement of the system will be re-
vealed to the doctors sight.

A Gang of RufHans Insult and Maltreat
an Opera Company.


Spokane, Feb. 9.-Russell Harding,
superintendent. of the Great Northern
railway, has received the following
telegraphic report from his agent at
Shelby Junction, Mont, of the OUT
RACES perpetrated by gang of drunken
cowboys, in which members of the Co.
lumbia opera company suffered severe
indignities:
"The cowboys began their disturb
ances by firing shots around the Great
Northern and Canada train as it came
into the station with the opera folks.
While the theatrical people were sitting
in the waiting room, one of the cow
boys came in and began to use profane
and insulting language. During the
alteration had in getting him out, l
struck him with my fist. then locked
the door to keep him out. He went
away, and Immediately returned with
several of his chums, armed with six
shooters. He was shouting that he
would shoot the agent. He kicked the
door open, and scared every one out of
the depot by fourishing his revolver.
The agent retreated to the warehouse,
where he remained a few minutes.
The ringleader of the cowboys went
out, and followed the theatrical people
to the hotel. He assaulted one by
striking him on the head with his gun,
and struck two or three others with his
fist. I am advised that he threatened
to run the station agent out of Shelby.
A warrant is now in the hands of the
sheriff, who wifi probably make arrests
tomorrow. I. M. Kingsbury.''
For three hours the drunken hood
lums kept up their terrorism, insulting
women, attacking men, firing revolvers
and otherwise acting like demons.

Gave a Good stage of Water,

Pittsburg, Feb. 9.-Both the ALLIE
cheney and Monongahela rivers are
full of floating ice, and are rising rapid
ly, but dangerous flood is not appre-
hended. A good boating stage of water
is assured, however, and between -
600, 900 and 10, 600, 900 bushels of coal
will be shipped to Southern points dur
ing the first of the week. Several
tows were made today and started, but
had to lay up because of the ice. The
MonongaheIa above Brownsville, and
the Allegheny, above Kittangin, are
still frozen over, and the weather is
getting colder, SO they will probably
not break up now.

THE ROUTINE PROCEEDINGS.
Senator Thurston Resumed His Speech
ON the Pacific Railroads.

Washington, Feb. 9.-Thurston, of
Nebraska resumed his speech upon the
Pacific railroad debt. In the course OF
Thurston's remarks, Morgan of Ala
bama asked whether the roads were
not paying expenses, to which the Ne
braska senator replied he could not say,
not having data before him.
Thurston said it was 'tnip and tuck
whether the court should authorize pay
ment of interest on the first mortgage
bonds of the Union Pacific. He said
the Union Pacific never earned enough
to pay all it's interest obligations.
Following Thurston IS speech, the sem
ate, by unanimous consent, went to the
calendar and passed the following
bills:
For the relief of the Mobile Marine
Dock Company, for the establishment
of soldiers home at Hot Springs,
Ark; to place Rear-Admiral McCann
on the retired list; amending the law
in regard to collisions at sea; resolu-
tion OF inquiry relating to the capture
Of the Competitor by Spanish war
ship; for public building at Joplin,
Mo-, and for the relief of James Tai
free and Pay Clerk Blake, of the navy,
on account of fire at Yokohama.
When the joint resolution acknowl-
edging the independence of Cuba was
reached on the calendar, Morgan insist
ed that it should be taken up, notwith-
standing objections. He subsequently
withdrew the request, several senators
protesting. Morgan gave notice, how
ever, that when the senate should next
come in contact with the resolution, he
would insist upon it's consideration.
The vice-president announced the ap-
pointment of Lodge of Massachusetts
and Blackburn of Kentucky as COM
mittee to make arrangements for the
counting of the electoral vote.
