Runaway Tuesday Afternoon.

A rather amusing runaway occur
red on Seventh street Tuesday even
ing. Mrs. J. Knighton, in company
with another lady, was driving down
the street when a fastening in the
doubletrees worked loose and with
out warning the tongue dropped to
the ground. The horses became
frightened at this unusual occurrence
and finished the job by kicking the
tugs loose and started pell-mell down
the street. The ladies remained in
the middle Of the road in the wagon
until the animals were out of sight,
then climbed out. The horses were
caught in short time and matters
righted. No one was hurt and no
damage done with the exception of
the breaking Of the wagon tongue.

Cold Storage Team on a Frolic.

Another runaway, similar in detail
TO the one occurring on Tuesday. han
pened this Friday morning, the par
tlcipants in the affair being the Ice
wagon team. In this case. as in the
other one, the bolt in the doubletrees
came out when the team was In front
OF the cold storage, and the driver
was just on the point of starting ON
mis- rounds. When the horses found
they were free from the wagon they
started at a lively gait towards Sixth
street. The driver held the lines
which were broken in two. and the
horses departed, turning up Sixth
street toward the court house, where
they were caught by Isaac Best, the
real estate man. No damage was
done save the breaking of the lines
and these were soon replaced with
new ones and the ice wagon was soon
distributing its cool burden over the
city as usual.

BIG RANCH DEAL

NEW YORK PARTIES BUY
Best-Fuller Co. Makes Record Sale
of the Year in Josephine
County.

One of the largest real estate trans
actions ever made In this valley took
place last week. 1t was the sale of
the G. H. Garner ranch 13 miles east
of this city, and miles north of
Woodville. The property consists of
nearly 400 acres, and of this
amount $50 acres are made up of a
rich, black, sandy loan, under irriga-
tion. Besides the above, there is
something over 700 acres of AL red
land that is considered the equal Of
any soil in the valley. The property
was sold by the we'll known real es-
tate firm, the Best-Fuler Co., to New
York parties, who did not care to
have their names mentioned at this
time, though the deal was closed by
substantial payment down, pending
the preparation of the title papers.
The amount Of the purchase was an
even 100000.
1t is the intention of the purchasers
to expend considerable sum in I'm
provements and they will at once put
in grain and forage crops, using all
the irrigated land for this purpose.
Isaac Best, of the Best-Fuller COM
pany, went to Hornbrook, CAL, a
few days ago, whore he met Noble
Parker, OF the firm OF Parker &
Burkhalter, Of this city, OF whom he
purchased eight head of fine heavy
work horses to be used on the big
place. The plan OF development OF
this property is the cutting Of II into
large number of small farms of
such size as can be worked to advan-
tage In a commercial way. There
are very few large bodies OF land in
the Rogue River valley the equal in
productive quality OF this we'll known
ranch. The locality OF the place is
In Pleasant valley and the ranch is
called by that name.

Train Service Demoralized.

During the past week the rails OF
the Southern Pacific tracks have been
kept hot by the unceasing traffic
which has passed over them. Some
times as many as 20 passenger trains
passed through Grants Pass in one
day, en- route to and from eastern
points, being diverted from their ma
tural route by the disastrous slides
on the lines in Nevada. These extra
trains have created havoc in the sche-
dule OF our local passenger. limited
and freight trains so that no train
has been running on time during the
past week. The last OF the specials
was removed this Friday morning, so
that we may expect something like
schedule time in the future, al
though II will probably be about two
weeks longer before we can expect
anything like regularity in railroad
traffic, as the ferry trouble which
delays the arrival Of No. 10. north
bound. In the evening and conse-
quently Nos. II and 15, southbound,
In the morning, has not yet been rem
edied. No. 13 was on time this Fri
day afternoon for the first time for
many days.
Last week no eastern mail was re-
ceived In the Grants Pass postoffice
for four days and on the fifth there
were 1889 pounds, represented by 80
sacks Of papers and two pouches of
letters. This was on Saturday and
every day since has seen a propor-
tionately large amount OF eastern
mall to keep the Grants Pass postal
clerks hustlng to work over. On
Tuesday Of this week there were 25
sacks, containing altogether about
1000 pounds OF mail.
IL Is certainly relief to the post
office department as we'll as the
travelling public and community at
large to see the break in the tle-up
and to know that we will have only
our own train troubles to contend
with In the future, which OF them
selves are enough to try the patience
to the extreme.

Visit of Department Commander.

A fair sized audience attended the
meeting Thursday night which was
given out as a good citizenship meet
ing, and listened patiently for an
hour or more to the ramblings OF an
egotist in the person Of Department
Commander Shaw, of the G.. A. r.,
who spent the day here on a visit
of inspection to General Logan Post
and to inculcate patriotism in the
schools. The most he did at the
school was to brag of his achieve
ments and at the meeting in the even
ing he killed time.
The Grand Army OF the Republic is
an organization to which every old
soldier Is proud to belong and the
organization and its members are
honored throughout the length and
breadth Of the Union. II stands for
benevolence and loyalty and one OF
its mission is to instill within the
breasts OF the youth OF the land the
spirit OF patriotism, and in these
matters II has been power, but
when a man uses his office for per.
sonal glorificatIon the principles OF
the order are lost sight Of.
