gree x-Ray Examination.

The Bi-Chemic Physicians never accept a
case unless they Know to a certainty the
cause of the trouble. and this can only be
determined by a scientific X-Ray examina-
ton. Their X-Ray outfit is the most elab-
crate and complete in this country. BY
their microscopic attachment they are
able to examine all parts of the body and
find out to an absolute certainty the cause
of the patients affection: Come, and be
examined: it is absolutely free. They will
not charge you one cent. Come and find out
what your trouble is and they will advise
you in reference to a cure. 1t il all free.
They ask no compensation.

Much excitement was caused when the
news reached here that Mr.. Barnum, who
lives on the Morley road. about four miles
from this village. had been struck down and
probably fatally injured by his neighbor,
Mr.. Sullivan.
The cause of the bloody affair appears to
have been a dispute over a fence which
Sullivan built across a road that has been
for a long time out of use. This road was
between the two farms. and Barnum OBJ
jected to Sullivan building the fence. 1t

ak and some other tools to the place to re-
pair 1t.
While Sullivan was at work Barnum came
to the spot and a dispute arose. Just what

Where the disposition exists, the oppor-
tunity given during such troublous times
for spite work can be readily understood.
But all orders. general and specific, pass
through many hands before they are exc
cuted. and 1t is not easy to see why from
among the number there be not some one to
veto measures that can do no good.
For example: How could a cause be
strengthened by consisning a man to
months of absolute Silence. as in Governor
Magofin's case. when that gentleman was a
prisoner at Alton? 1t only embIttered him
the more. and all others aware of the fact.
What was gained by taking Captain Carlin
and Lieutenant Sebring and many others to
the yard of the Mcdowell College prison and
fastening them by chains to posts for six
or seven hours at a time In midwinter?
1t was called prison discipline"-that
and putting men in the black dungeon fitted
up in the college part. every time they took
a step to the right or left not fancied by
the guard on duty. Who was benefited by
putting shackles on Captain Boon's wrists,
balls and chains on his ankles. when he at
tempted and failed to escape from the
Myrtle street prison in female attire?
Why should prisoners of war awaiting ex-
change be placed in irons? A brave man
honors a brave man. But where was the
bravery in those in power when they thus
~tyrannized over others who at least were
fighting for a principle?
Judge John NJ. Winner was a man Of SUI
1cient prominence in st. Louis to have been

RUN OVER BY STAG TRAIN
Frank Fuller. an Employe at
Keswick. Fell Under Wheels.

Frank Fuller, 17-year old son OF X.
Il. Fuller of Keswick, was run over
by the smelter Stag train Thursday
morning and received injuries that
terminated fatally at 3 O'Clock in the
afternoon.
Young Fuller was employed at the
terminus of the Stag railroad leading
from the furnaces to the dump ON the
south side of Spring creek and east OF
the smelter "A few hundred yards. 1t
was his business to help dump the Stag
pots, which mounted on low trucks,
constitute the Stag train.
While the electric train was in
motion, Frank attempted to jump
aboard between the cars. Missing his
hold, he slipped and fell with his
legs across the rails. The car passed
over them almost completely seyering
them from his body. He was at
once removed to the company's hospi-
tai, but it was evident that nothing
could be done to save his life. Death
occurred at shortly after 3 o'clock.

COMPANY H DISBANOED
Military Board Elimin ties Militia
of Grants Pass.

The State Military Board resolved
to disband the militia companies
at Grants Pass and Oregon City. This
action was decided upon as necessary
in order to comply with the Dick law.
The decision was preceded by an
animated debate.
The session was an adjourned meet
ing at the Office of Adjutant- General
Gantenbein, in the chamber of com
merce building. Governor Chamber
lain was present also Adjutant- Gener-
al Gantenbein, Inspector General S.
G. Spencer, and Commissary- General
d. NJ. Dunno.
The board decided that the Oregon
National Guard should be composed
OF one regiment Of ~ companies, and
one battalion of four companies,
namely the two at Eugene, the one at
Roseburg, and the one at Ashland.
There are now IS companies, two of
which as named above, will be dis
missed. The six in Multnomah
county will be retained
This action does not meet the ap-
proval Of all members of the Military
Board, but they agreed to it in pur.
suance Of the report of the United
States and state officers The new
arrangements will require Colonel,

THE ORE GRANDE PLACER
Lively Work Progressing on
Steve's Fork of Stea mboat.

The Ore Grande Mining Co. is doing
quite a lot of business on Steve's
FORK. TIL cir first main ditch of three.
fourths of mile has been completed,
the piping is being placed in position
and all that remains now in order to
commence mining operations is the
construction of short ditch for a by
wash. This work will be completed
this week The company is also put
ting in saw mil to cut lumber for
buildings, fumes and other purposes,
and they expect to have this in posi-
tion within 10 days, The work has
been somewhat retarded by lack of
men but Fred Hurd took out several
more men Tuesday-enough to make
up a full force. There seems to be no
question Of the value Of the property.
Expert miners who have examined it
it are unanimous in the opinion that
the OreGrande will develop into one
Of the best producers in Southern
Oregon Along the line of ditch one
could get prospect from almost
every pan of dirt picked up. As the
ditch is naturally upon the high
ground this condition would indicate
that the ground along the creek bot
tom would be very rich As soon as
the boys get to piping we shall begin
to expect some very satisfactory re-
sults-Medford Mail.

BIG PLACER ENTERPRISE
Oalice Hydraulic Co. Is Cutting 4
Lumber for Fumes.

The Galice Hydraulic Mining Co.
is actively at work in the develop
ment of the big enterprise at the
mouth Of Galice creek. The sawmill
is now in operation and is cutting
lumber steadily while the construc-
tion of buildings will be commenced
this week. At the earliest possible
time, the company will begin work
on the large double fumes by which
it designed to open the creek bed at
the mouth and clean it to the bedrock,
sweeping the accumulated sluicings
of years through the fumes. The
company intends to secure the gold
which has been lost during the placer
operations on the creek for the past
30 years and which is all lying in the
creek bed. Besides this, the opening
/ of the creek at the mouth will open
up considerable new and very rich
ground which is too low to have been
worked to advantage hitherto. A
large amount Of ground of known rich
ness, IN high channels and bars, is
also owned by the company. The
working of this portion of the ground
has not been feasible hitherto on ac-
count of lack of water, but the ditch
which the company is extending from
| further up the stream will remedy
this deficiency. The plans of the
Galice Mining Co., successfully car.
ried out, will develop one of the big
gest placer propositions in the state
and one that should prove immensely
productive. The operations are under
the direction of A. B. Cousin whose
success in mining operations on the
creek show him to be placer opera
tor of unusual ingenuity, resource ant
Judgment.
