A couple of weeks ago we adver

transposition was not so inappropriate
as it might otherwise have been.

V. Webster Is putting up a very
neat little 14x18 cottage just west of
Merchant Erford's residence. Mr.
Webster is a single man yet the tactof
his building a dwelling does not of ne

Rev. Merley, recently from Indi
ana, took a drive through, past and
around several of our fruit orchards
one day tbis week and upon returning
he talked to great length of what he
had seen with Merchant Hutchison.
Upon completing his very laudatory
remarks Mr. Hutchison found time to
say that if Rev. Merley would accept
it he could get him a good paying po
sition with some of our real estate deal
ers he was just the man they have
long been looking for.
O Sunday was another wet day and
the local prognosticator is getting in
any amount of conjectures as to the
very probable wet season there is ahead
of us. Old timers sav that when our
rains begin in September or early in
October, the rule has been to follow up
with an open winter. In California the
dry winters are usually preceded by
September rains. Be the season wet
or dry there is some eohce in knowing
that we are not compelled to hibernate
as many do in eastern and northern
states.

There was quite a howl round
about the S. P. depot Monday morning
and not wholly without cause. Engi
neer Barnum had run in on the S. P.
sidetrack with his engine and car to
load freight for Jacksonville and had
pushed several cars down over the
south crossing and left them standing
there while the freight loading was
going on, and by so doing blocked the
crossing for both man and teams
hence the howl. It's "agin" the law,
Mr. Barnum, and "agin" the grain of
the best dispositioned man in this city
to walk several lengths in the mud
An eminent bee culturist says that
bees always seek the society of man
So do hornets, good brother, so do hor
nets. And "yaller jackets'' swarm
thickest where man congregates most
plentiful, and both the bee and "jacket"
takes as naturally to man as the editor
of The Mail does to jack rabbit when
it is palmed off on him as venison, but
"revenge is mine" saith Bliton. George
Buffinglon and Renus Hamilton can
consider themselves doomed to an early,
though very timely taking off, and in
their innocence which they never had
they will know not, the pleasures even
of a fruitless appeal for mercy.
Ed. Pottenger met with an accl
dent the fore part of this week which
came very near proving fatal. He was
engaged in handling a dressed beef at
the packing house and as be ran. under
a quarter of a beef to catch it on the
swing and throw it onto his shoulder
something above gave away and the
whole of one side of the beef came down
upon him and as his body was In a po
sition leaning backward the weight of
the beef bent him almost double and
threw him to the floor. For 6ome. little
time afterwards it was thought he had
received injuries of a fatal nature, but
in a short time he revived a little and
was taken to his home on F street.
Out on Griffin creek last week the
boys gave a newly married couple
tin pan serenade. Meeting with no
response from the inside one of the
bold ones of the crowd ventured to
raise a window which, unfortunately
for him, was located immediately over
the sleeping couch of the house's occu
pants. A white robed form rose before
him and be was looking down the
gleaming barrel of a large sized revol
ver he fell to the ground and was
quickly hustled away by his comrade.
The rattle-te-bang of tin pans didn
rattlc-te-bang an more that night and
tbo young men of that neighborhood
are now endeavoring to cultivate
little better sense ef propriety.
There is a new law firm in town, or
to get closer to the line of facts, part
of the firm is new to our city. G. W.
White, recently from the Sound coun
try, and a law graduate of an Ohio uni
versity, has formed a partnership .with
S. S. Pentz. The latter gentleman has
practiced his profession in Medford for
the past six years and needs no intro
duction to our people.- Mr. White is
stranger but that we will be better ac
quainted with him, now that ho is here
to stay, goes without the saying. He is
apparantly a very fine gentleman an
will doubtlessly prove himself, worthy
our people's support. In addition to
the practice of law the new firm will
do a general real estate business and
will loan money. Mr. White owns the
property occupied by Jeweler Priteh
ard, and a brick addition is being
built to this building in which the now
firm will have their office.
J. J. Ullman came in Tuesday from
the W. Carroll ranch, at which place
he has been engaged, in the manufac
ture of wine. From a five acre vineyard
Mr. Carroll made 500 gallons of fino
wine and, in tha opinion of Mr. Ullman,
had they been provided with a suitable
press the amount would have reached
1000 gallons. Aside from this amount
of wine the gentleman still has, all
from the five acres of land, a goodly
amount of grapes of other varieties
than those used for wine, with which
he will supply the local market and for
his own family use. Wine is worth
fifty cents a gallon $50 an acre made
from growing grapes, and only half the
crop secured, is not so bad.
Almost all towns the size of Med
ford boasts of a Kindergarten school.
Medford has had none heretofore but
this quite necessary branch of child
education is now to be a part of our
school curiculum. Miss May Sackett,
young lady well and favorably known
In this vicinity, has decided, after
much solicitation, to open a Kinder
garten school in our city. The school
will be conducted in the basement hall
of the Christian church and Vill open
next Monday, October 30th. Terms of
uition will be made known upon ap
plication to Miss Sackett at the church.
The Intermissions at the Kindergar
ten will be at different hours than
at the public school, thus the sports of
the larger pupils of the public schools
will not interfere with play spells of
the little folks of the Kindergarten.

is teaching school in that viridity. It
was he who had the fracas with Clop

hand bitten by him, from tbe effects of
which he has not yet recovered. As a
matter of fact he is very little im
proved, the poison from the bite having
scattered quite generallr through his
whole system. His eyesight has also
been impaired considerably.

liberality of Medford business men is
responsible.
In Memorium.
The following sketch may be inter
esting to the pioneers of Southern Ore
gon: In the recent death of Mrs. Mary E.
Gore, the wife of Mr. E. E. Gore, of
Phoenix, it is but just to record that
the neighborhood has lost a noble
friend, the church a wise and faithful
worker, and the home a dearly beloved
and trustworthv wife and mother.
Mrs. Gore came of that sturdy,
Scotch-Irish Presbyterian stock, from
tbe North of Ireland, many of whom
emigrated to this country in an early
day. She was a direct descendant of
the family of the Gilmours and Gibsons,
who hewed out their homes in the for
ests of Pennsylvania, and who have
been so honorably identiSed with the
religious, educational and noble en
terprises of this country in those
states where they have lived. Her
father, Robert Gilmour, located in
Mercer county, Pa. In 179S and when
he bad prepared a good home, he was
married in May 1S04 to Miss Nancy
Smith, of Indiana county, Pa, who was
also a descendant of Scotch-Irish par
entage. Mrs. Gore was tbe youngest
of a family of ten children, three sons
and seven daughters, and was born
Feb. 6, IS27. Her father died when
she was but sixteen months old. In
tbis Pennsylvania home she was reared
and educated in tbe midst of a pious
commuuity, and under the fostering
care of the school and church. To the
rural scenes and joyous experiences of
her childhood home she delighted to
refer. From early youth she was
lover of books, and became a woman of
more than ordinary ability and literary
tastes. The one book, however, she
prized above all others was the Bible.
She was familiarly conversant with its
doctrines and precepts, and loved to
impart a knowledge of its precious
truths to others. When nearly IS
years of age she was married to Lewis
A. Rose, a man of whom she speakes
of as being "eminently pious." 'and
with whom she moved to Charleston,
Iowa, where he died Sept. 20, 1S46,
leaving her with an infant son, who.
now the present L. A. Rose, of Phoe
nix, Or. On Sept. 20, 1S49, she was
married to Mr. E. E. Gore, and with
him crossed the plains coming to this
coast. They left Charleston, Iowa,
April 27, 1S52, and arrived in the Rogue
river valley Sept. ' 27th of the same
year, r or a time their resiucnoe was
in Jacksonville, Or., where Dec.
1852, Walter S. Gore was born; he be
ing the first white male child born in
Jackson county.
Mrs. Gore was tbe mother of ten
children, five sons and fivo daughters,
nine of whom are still living to mourn
her death. She was a woman of strong
and positivo christian character, and
with a firm reliance upon Christ, she
passed away Oct. 7, 1893. Hter funeral
was largely attended, and took place
Oct. 18th from the little church of
Phoenix, of which she was a worthy
member, ana where she loved to wor
ship and teach in the Sabbath school.
The servioos were of an appropriate
character, and were condubted by the
Rev.-M. A. Williams, the agod pioneer
Presbyterian minister of . Southern
Oregon, assisted by the present pastor
of the church. The interment took
place in the cemetery near the church
In heart-felt sympathy with the be
reaved family and in the language of
assured hope, we unite in saying
"Blessed are the dead which die
the Lord from henceforth; yea, saith
the Spirit, that they may rest from
their labors; and their works do follow
thorn."
