Vice-President Crocker, of the Southern Pacific, has announced that his company does not propose to make any fight against the hordes of tramps who are beating their way on freight trains. He has arrived at the conclus ion that it is useless to unload the ticketless tourists, because they get aboard again ia sufficient numbers to overpower the trainmen. For tbe last week or more nearly every freight train bas from fifty to seventy of these tourists aboard. Tuesday's south bound train was pulling an empty box car in which were sixty-eight. They do not attempt to cone -al their presence, but instead when the train pulls into a sta tion they open the doors, climb out and walk around on the depot platform just like pay passengers, but when the train pulls out every one is in the car, and thus they ride unmolested and without price. -Ketchup made from tomatoes and homemade.

Hockersmith. Ad dress, Medford, Oregon. Consultation freo. Last July Ted Howard dug a well on his lot on North E street. Nothing remarkable about this fact, but as last week when working about tbe gravel which was takeu from this well he picked up a piece of metal which close ly resembles gold, there is, indeed, something remarkable connected with it. The piece of metal which he found has been tested by acid and is to all appearances solid gold. Experts have also examined it and are of the opinion that it is nothing more nor less than gold. Its value, if gold, is something over $29. Another question, as yet un settled, is as to whether it is a nugget or a relic. There are dents in it as of hammer marks, but some are positive these were caused by its coming in con tact with heavy rocks. In the gravel near this piece Mr. Howard found a small nugget containing about fifty cents of gold. Both of these it is thought were dug up about six or eight feet from the surface. This fact would seem to strengthen the theory ad vanced by several that many parts of this valley would prove rich placer fields. A later report says Mr. How ard has sold the above relic or nugget for $G0. And still another report says that where it was found is the identical point where, sevt-.ral years ago, a coun terfeiter was killed and this metal was a part of his stock and trade. If this story spreads out very much more it will savor of fish quite a plenty. Lumber For Sale. I have for sale about four thousand foet of barn lumber at $10 per thousand. C. P. Buck.

It is the head of a man Inclosed in a box of silver. It was fonnd in n mound at the foot of the Horsehcad hills. The mound, which is a small one, had always been looked upon as natural. Garrizo; want ing dirt to fill a low place near his door, took it from the monnd. He dug several feet into the mound, when ho discovered a metal box, which he opened and found in it a peculiar round object It ap apeared to be a clay ball, but when ho struck it he found that the clay covered a cloth which was wrapped aboutaskulL It was rather a mummied head, for the skin and hair were there. , The head is that of an elderly man of undonbted Indu.n origin, as shown by the high cheek bones and long black hair. One temple is crushed in, show ing how he met his death, though the hair is plastered down over the break in the sknll. The box is roughly made and is covered with rudo hieroglyphics rep resenting a sacrifice to the gods. That the head had been subjected to an em balming process is proven by the absence of brains and its remarkable state of preservation. Cor. Philadelphia Press. President Eliot's Saint. The college boys who took part in the commencement dances at "The Pageant of the Year" are laughing at their un successful attempt to salute President Eliot during the performance. They knew the seat which Hurvard'6 president was to occupy, and so they arranged among themselves to give a salute to him as they skipped out in their inimita ble exit. The dance was completed in duo form, and they pranced ont amid applunse. When they reached the proper spot all saluted and disappeared behind the scenes, proud over the compliment which they had paid President Eliot Judge their dismay when they learned that he was not in his seat then, and that hs did not come in until several dances later! But no doubt the person who was saluted thought it very nice. Boston Transcript Spellbound.
