Morris Gray Drummer Boys to Hold
Reunion.

The drummer boys" who were an
important adjunct of the "Morris
Grays" the crack military organiza-
tion of Morristown in 1878, are ar
ranging to hold reunion in Morris
town in the near future The boys,
six in number, were Hudson H. Fair
child, leader, John Paul, "Kelly"
MCGOWAN, Johnnie Wiethauper,
Charles H. Green and Elwyn Bent
ley. OF the original drummers, all
are now living and hope to be present
at the reunion. Fairchild, Green
and Bentley, live in Morristown, Paul
in New York, Wiethauper and McGow-
an in Adams, Mass
The boys attended drill regularly
with the Grays in the armory in
Washington Hall, now the site of
the First National Bank and Days,
Capt. Duncan was the commanding
officer and thier uniform was gray,
while the drummer boys were uni
formed inssscarlet rounuabouts, tight
fighting breaches, with white trim
mings. The quality of the music rem
dered by them was of high order,
so much so that they frequently ap-
peared at concerts and receptions.
L. D. Babbitt. now as then in the
clothing business, made their
uniforms which everybody admired.
The Chronicle will be glad to note
the proceeding of the ensuing gather
ing which doubtless will be an inter
esting occasion.

There is no complaint, because they
all do it. " You have the same plague
in your goods-nearly everything,

quantity. Almost nobody gives full
weight in a factory package!
We are one of the almost uobodies.

BesieS's Waukegan Brewing Com pauy.
1t Is with pleasure that we call the
attention Of the trade, and private fam.
lilies, to the fact that owing to the In.
creasing demand for bottled ale and
porter Of undOubted purity and Of the
finest quality, We are now bOttling the
same under our own supervision.
The frequent use of adulterants and
substitutes for malt and hops In the
manufacture Of malt liquors has re-
suited In IN inquiry for IN article Of
domestic manufacture, wholly free
from anything of a harmful or deleteri'
GUS nature, and at price that would
commend Its use to all. The failure
hitherto to obtain such an article has
led consumers to purchase imported
goods at q high price.
Therefore we are prepared to place
on the market bottled ale aud porter
unexcelled In quality, equal In every
respect to the imported, ut much
lower price.
Our goods being manufactured from
the choicest barley malt aud the hest
hops In the market, no substitutes
whatever being used, and, being bottled
by ourselves at Waukegan, enables US
to offer to our customers an absolute
guaranty of their purity and quality.
Families can obtain these goods Of
all the leading fancy grocers, the prin-
cipal hotels, restaurants and druggists.

IowANs AFTER TIMBER.

The rush of timber land locators
continues without abatement, and the
members seeking claims in the yellow
and sugar pine timber belt east Of
Ashland increases. twenty-five men
arrived from Iowa Sunday, and 80
more, including 10 women, on Mon
days train from Muscatine, in that
state, who will take claims in the
Sprague river valley of klamath
county. Twelve four-horse teams
are engaged TO transport the locators
across the mountain divide to the
scene of their proposed locations. 1t
is expected that more people will fol
low them.
Another large crowd Of locators left
two days ago for a new timber sec
tion in the vicinity of Summer Lake,
and they will be followed by others to
the same locality soon. Ashland
livery men are at their wits end to
supply transportation facilities for
those who are locating ON these lands,
and all kinds Of teams and vehicles
are pressed into service for the occa-
sion.

ACTIVITY IN GOLD HILL DIS
TRICT.

IRlCI.
The Gold Hill mining district,
situated lG miles east Of Grants Pass,
is entering a period Of activity greater
than it has ever known since the
palmy days of 30 years ago The
mines Of that district, like those Of
other districts in the state, are under
going systematic development at the
hands Of cnterprising and experienced
miners Recently the mines Of the
Gold Hill district that were but
scratched over by the pocket-hunters
during the early days, are being
opened up to depth Of several
hundred feet and their real values ex-
posed Another feature that Is add
ing TO the activity and worth Of the
Gold Hill district nt this time, is the
enterprise Of Doctor G. T.. Ray in the
building Of dam across Rogue river
similar to the one being built In the
Dry DigginPs district by the Golden
Drift company DR.. Ray and his
brother, Of New York City, the two
Of whom have several million dollars
at their command, have invested
heavily in mining properties in the
Gold Hill district, aud to further the
development Of their own mines, a.
well as the entire district Of Gold
Hill and large portion Of Rogue
river valley, they are putting in
dam across the Rogue river from
which they will derive unlimited
power for any and all purposes for
which they may choose TO use it,
Doctor Ray has 100 men at work
building the dam which he intends to
have completed before the arrival Of
the winter rains and fresheta The
dam Is a model Of engineering skill
and workmanship and will turn a
large body Of water from the Rogue.
This water will bo carried around
the minealized hills Of the Gold
Hill district and across large section
Of Rogue river valley and will serve
the double purpose for power and irri-
