Clarence w. Gore, of Medford,
Contracts Severe Cold
Which Runs Into ConSump-
ton.
STATE UNIVERSITY BOY
Just Before Thanksgiving Was Com
PEELED, With Four Other Fresh-
men, to Keep Up Huge Bonfire for
the Benefit of Their TorInentorss

Medford, Ore, Feb. 7.--As the di-
rect result of hazing at the Univer-
sity of Oregon, Clarence w. Gore
died at his home in this city Sunday
afternoon. The young man never
recovered from a cold contracted
while being put through a hazing
stunt before Thanksgiving, going in
to quick consumption. He was
forced to leave the university at
Christmas and was unable to return.
After he had been in the univer-
sity some weeks, Mr.. Gore with four
other Freshmen, were taken out one
night and for three hours we're COM
PEELED to keep up huge bonfire for
the benefit of their tormentors. The
work was enough to keep a SCORE
of men busy but in their efforts to
please their superior classmates, the
young students over-exerted them-
selves, especially so was this In
Cores case, who was of a slight,
delicate build. He was soon in II
dripping perspiration and although
he took the best care possible of
himself afterwards, he contracted IL
heavy cold which he was unable to
throw off.
He came home at Thanksgiving
and spent week trying to build
himself up again. He then returned
to college against the wishes of his
father and remained until Christ
mas. When he came home at
Christmas time he was very weak
and stated that he was unable to
climb a flight of stairs without stop
ping.
For the first time he told of the
hazing which had brought on the
cold.

HIS FATHER
Proprietor Court Grill Has Ham,
iIton & Collins PinChed for
Selling Liquor to Minors.

As the result of an alteration be-
tween Mel Hamilton and George
Fendrick, arising over the manner
in which the Court Grill eating
house was being conducted, Hamil-
ton and Frank Collins, proprietors
of the Court Saloon on State street,
have been arrested and bound over
to await the action of the grand jury
under $50 bonds.
According to the two defendants
story, Fendrick, who has just re-
Gently taken charge of the restaur-
ant, failed to comply with the GUS
tomary moral rules in conducting
the business by permitting denizens
of the underworld to assemble in the
house and carry on their merry
making to the extent that the pass
ing of liquid refreshments into the
restaurant was prohibited by the
proprietors of the saloon. When
this was done, however, Hamilton
claims that the prosecuting witness
in the case, Fendrick, became an
gered at being deprived of the ac-
comodation, and instigated suit. A
young man by the name of Coffee,
who was a waiter in the restaurant,
is alleged to have been sold liquor
by Collins and Hamilton when he
was under age and the arrest was
made under the state statute pro-
hibiting the sale of intoxicating
liquors to minors.
Arrested His Father.
Constable Ira Hamilton made the
arrest. He walked in the saloon and
reading the warrant to his father
and Frank Collins, compelled them
to don their street attire and accom-
pany him to the office of Justice Of
the Peace Webster. where they were
placed under bonds of $50.
Young Coffee, it is understood,
gave due notice OF resignation as
soon as his employer. Fendrick, ap-
prised him of the proceedings, and
his whereabouts is not known at
present. Coffee is alleged to have
told the proprietors of the saloon
that he was 81 years of age and they
therefore did not refuse him the lib
erty OF purchasing drinks.

Meteor Falls

A meteor sixty-five inches in diam
eter closed it's journey of millions of
miles by burying itself six inches
deep on the NV 5-8 section 35, town
ship 147, range 67, about seven and
one-half miles northwest of Caring
ton.
Several residents in the near wicin-
ity were awake at the time the meteor
struck and were attracted to the doors
by the brilliant light that overspread
the country for miles around. The
scene was magnificent. The huge
ball had all the colors of the rainbow
and travelled with tremendous force
and speed. There was no trace OF
noise except that caused when the
boulder hit the ground.
For more than twenty-four hours
the meteor kept hot. 1t was at &
white heat when it struck the earth
1t now has the appearance OF a piece
of ore. People in that section will.
dig it out during the next few days
and it may be brought to Darlington

oun DEPLoRAsLE CONDITION.

Just few words anent the present
conditions in our city. Verify 10 hear
the clamor that Is going up from cer-
tam quarters, stranger would think
that Alinot was fast going TO the dem
milton bow-wows. And why? Sim.
My because certain man. LeSueur
by name, has q stranglehold on certain
forms Of protected vice, and at the
present writing both shoulders are
still on the mat oh my, what q howl.
Just think OF 1t, we can't get a glass
of beer any more, why we can't even
stand like q fool and throw our money
into a slot machine; we can't let our
boys loiter around the nice. respectar
BILE billiard halls any more. We can't
but what's the use of telling the
many things we can't do. It's Just
awful, so it is. The travelling man
won't stop here over Sunday any
more, because he can't get any beer.
Farmers have quit coming for the
same reason, and consequently the
business men are not doing thing.
Not a thing; business is rotten, and
think of it; this has really happened
in pl ohibition state. We are actual
ly prohibited in a prohibition state
from buying a bottle of beer. Isn't
that a jolt. No use any more to
sneak around in some alley, or down
a flight of stairs into some filthy
Joint, give the grand hailing sign OF
distress; get in and be relieved at
the rate OF IS cents per, by some plug
ugly, who happens to be out of jail
for the present. No use, we simply
can't get it.. Well, of all things.
AND in consequence OF this great in
justice the booze-faced man, the pow
der-faced woman, the tin horn and
buns have to leave their happy
homes. Like Othelio, their occupa-
ton is gone here, but they have that
old time brunette beaten to frazzle,
for their occupation. is easily resumed
in some other place.
Do we miss them? Yes, dearly be-
loved, we do. We miss the foul, In
decent language we are accustomed
to hear. We miss the taWdry women
brazenly advertising their wares with
out hindrance in the public streets.
We miss the thrill of lodging to es-
cape the nurch of the drunken bum.
Our wives and sweethearts are prac-
tically safe when on the streets, from
the beery leer of some intoxicated
iuiot, or insult of the hanger on.
Say, do we want them back? We
can get them all right. Just let 1t be
known that Minot's lid is a trifle side
ways, and watch them come. Why,
they would rather be allowed to live
here than in any other town IN the
state. We should all rise In our
righteous wrath and make this Le-
Sueur man understand that We can't
get along without them. Pitiable con-
dition is it not? but then you can see
that 1t is necessary; business Is rot
