Well, I should say he was," said Tom. I'm the oldest of a family of twelve children and he is the youngest. ' If that don't make him a distant relative then I give up the guess." For sale, clean seed wheat, at 50 cents per bushel. C. C. Taylor, five miles east of Medford. The apple crop of Southern Oregon is very large and the quality superior this season. The demand is excellent and apple raisers in that section are well satisfied with the prices they are receiving.' Ordinarily the bulk of the apple crop in that section goes to San Francisco, but this year a large amount will be sent east of the Rocky Moun tains. Rural Northwest. "A chemical success and medical triumph," so spooks an eminent physi cian in reference to Ayer's Cherry Pectoral; and the eulogy was none too strong. No other medicine is so safe and efficacious in all diseases of the throat and lungs. Mr. A. H, Carson," says the Rural Northwest, "is inclined to look upon the Bulgarian prune as one of much promise. He says he has never propogated it for sale but has a few trees in his orchard. It is quite like the Italian in appearance but in his orchard yields considerably larger1 fruit. When cured the fruit requires very little sugar in cooking and has very fine flavor," - . Money to loan. Wo have $2,000 to loan on two or three years time on real estate security. Hamilton & Palm, Ladies who are given to caressing and kissing their lapdogs and kittens will be surprised to learn that great danger lurks in such practices. If al leged investigations on the part of an Italian scientist are to be credited, the cat's saliva by which she washes her fur is full of minute bacilli so fatally poisonous that rabbits and guinea pigs inoculated with-it died in twenty-four hours. The dog's saliva is, if anything, worse, containing a greater variety of bacteria. Nor is the horse free from these death dealing organisms, and thus another source of apprehension is ppened to the timid and fearful. Highest; of all in Leavening Power. Latest U. S. Gov't Report mm ABSOLUTELY PURE S. L. Bennett met with quite a painful accident Tuesday forenoon. He was engaged iu finishing up a little work with a mowing machine and when endeavoring to remove some mud from between the cog wheels, while the ma chine was in motion, the two fore fingers on his right hand wore caught between the cogs and tho flesh torn of! from the end to back of first joint. Dr. Geary dressed the hand and thinks ho will be able to save both fingers. I have just received another lnrge invoice of millinery goods, which I will sell at prices to' suit the hard times. Mrs. C. W. Palm. That big Sladden yarn about the fabulous profit of prune culture seems to have been contagious. The Spokane Review tells of a man at Pomeroy Washington; who this year made a net profit of $2,122.20 per aero on apples; $1,875.90 per acre on pears; and $1,072. 50 per acre on peaches. It is true these figures are quite modest as compared with Mr. Sladden's $6,600 profit per acre on prunes, but then their accuracy and exactness is more carefully attested by giving the cents in each instance. Rural Northwest. We have a fine line of ladies', gent's and children's underwear and hosiery. Call and get some of the bar gains before they are all sold out. Racket Store. The Corns tock of Oregon mino is far from being a lost effort. While the result of lost summer's run did not prove as profitable as was expected, it in no way cooled the ardor of its owners, Messrs. Fitch, Davis & Card well, and these gentlemen are now making ready to start the mill again. The run of last summer showed conclusively that there was more gold in the rock than the machinery then in use was capable of saving, and to make sure of these savings they ordered concentrators and the same are expected this week. As soon as these are gotten in position the mill will start up again and run all winter and spring. ' Specialties in glassware at the Sec ond Hand Store. Dr. G. B. Cole, after an absence of two years, arrived in Medford on Sat urday last, intending hereafter making mis city nis Home. Me has again-as sociated himself with Dr. W. S. Jonos, his former partner, for the practice of medicine and surgery. Dr. Cole, dur ing the summer of 1S91 and while in the practice here, demonstrated his ability in the treatment of difficult coses by a number of instances of seri ous diseases, both acute and chronic, which he conducted successfully to re covery, nis experience oi iweniy-nvo years in active practice, besides his having tho advantage of two years of study in the office of Dr. J.

Office with Dr. W. S. Jones, opera block. "Nothing succeeds like success," and nothing will more quickly insure success than true merit. For fiftyyears Ayer's Sarsaparilla has maintained its popularity as the superior blood-puri fier. It stands upon its own merits and never fails to give satisfaction. There is just a little tingling of sensational mining news coming from the famous Jump-Off-Joe mine. It will be remembered that some few months ago the Hammersly boys and their father sold the above mine to Messrs. Burke, Drew and Goodsell, of Idaho, lor S4U.UUU. Ten thousand of this was to have been paid November first but tbe necessary gold coin of the realm was not forthcoming upon that date. This state of no liquidation remained in the same unsettled condition until Tuesday of this week when Messrs. George and Riley Hammersly sallied forth to Medford and here procured legal advice as to tho modus operandi for them to follow. As a result of this visit proceedings at law were instituted and W. V. Jones, of Woodville, was ap pointed by Judge Hunna as receiver, and Messrs. Fitch & Card well, Webster & Hammond and Colvig retained by the Hammersleys as their attorneys. The purchasers, Messrs. Burke, Drew and Goodsell, have expended consider able money on the mine and have now on the grounds a very fine ten-stamp quartz mill. As to why they did not make the payment as specified in the bond is not given out but it was prob ably due to financial stringency. The old and reliable liniment XXX. A friend to mankind as well as to tho animal. The people of Medford were last Tuesday evening given an opportunity to listen to music which is usually ac corded to only those of our larger cities. Signor Liberati has a world- renowned reputation as one of the leaders, if not Tills leader, of tho world's most famous cornet soloists. He was in Medford upon the above date and the opera house was filled with music such as never before has it known. To write of the excellency of Liborati's music and do it justice would be an attempt at something our best writers have as yet been unable to ac complish. He is indeed wonderful Accompanying Liberati are Miss Rippe a very fine operatic singer, and M Myers, an accomplished pianist. Miss Rippe is a long ways ahead of many of the more extensively advertised and well known operatic singers and her rendition Tuesday evening were well up to the average of music in that line Mr. Myers, the pianist, is an able com panion to Liberati and bis renditions are equally as marvelous. While the entire program was not such as would be of the deepest interest to all yet even those who know least of music cannot but appreciate that it was of superior quality and they must admire the proficiency of the porformors. ' The school band U to be complimented upon their good taste in securing such j a treat for the people of Medford. The receipts of the evening wore about $100. The band after paying all expenses cleared $10 for themselves, Liberatl's next stop was at Red Bluffs. . Dates were all filled at Ashland. On Tuesday evening of this week there occurred out ou North C street an accident which may yot prove more fatal than is at present expected. Mr. E. G. Hurt, accompanied by . Newton Barr, was driving into town about half past eight with team and wagon and when near Mr. Perdue's place he was overtaken by a party driving at a lively pace. Mr, H. endeavored to turn aside and let them pass and in do ing so one of the fore legs of bis off horse was caught by the hind wheel of the passing vehicle. This frightened Mr. Hurl's team and after a couple of lunges they broke the reins and started to run. They ran into the sidewalk and then buck into the street again and ahead of the team which had caused all the commotion. Mr. Hurt jumped from his wagon and Mr. JJarr was thrown out near tho middle of the street. Ma. Hurt called to the driver of the other team to stop and not run over them but he paid no heed and came rushing on and oue of his wheels passed over Mr.-Barr's body, breaking two ribs and otherwise Injuring him about the head and neck. The driver of the strange team, even after he had driven over the body, did not stop to see how serious was tho damage he had done nor to lend his assistance in getting the gentleman out of the seri ous mishap for which he alone was re sponsible, but drove on into tho city leaving Mr. H. to care for tho injured as best he could. It was quite dark and Mr. H. could not moke out posi- itively who the parties were, but there were, as near as he could tell, four men and three ladies in the buggy. When Mr.Hurt had procured a conveyance and was bringing tbe injured gentleman to the city, about eleven o'clock, they camo near being run into a second lime Dy the samo team which was re turning from the city. Mr, Barr was taken to Mr. Hurt's residence and Dr. Geary summoned. The damage to the gon will amount to about $25, and up to the time we go to press no trace has been found of the team and, of course, it isjnot known how badly they are in jured. The whole business is the .out come of a piece of very reckless driving and if the identity of tho parties re sponsible for the accident can be learned and there don't seem to be much doubt but it can be they will bo made to pay well for their carelessness if jus- Uce CM btid.

APPICGATE MINING NEWS. Our Applceate correspondent sends us the following items from his part of the country: Mr. Sleeser reports having struck a rich trace a few miles up Thomp son creek that may lead to a rich pocket, or not, just as it happens. It is said that tho old steamboat mine, from which a large amount of gold was taken in early days, is to be again worked and quite a force put on. Messrs. Kazee, lobler, Isovnton & Co. are pushing work right along on the old ihompson creek mine, and think it enly a question of time when they will strike it rich. Messrs. Bailey & Leyton haven t worked much on the claim from which they took nearly a- thousand dollars a few weeks since, but think they will get more when they go after it. The Mountain Lion mine, owned by Bailey fc Davidson, is turning out good ore and they are getting away with over a ton a day with their 6team arraptre. This mine is on the east side of Applegate, about six miles from here, and is un doubtedly a good paying property, The Anaconda is located on the op posite side of tho stream, below Williams creek, and is being xtead i)v worked, and shows much the same character of ore as the Moun tain Lion, both being free milling and carrying twenty dollars and upwards per ton. Mr. Graw, a partner of Mr. John. son in tho Major mine, has been here about two weeks from Portland working on their big lead. They bare cross cut the lead and some times get good prospects in free gold from panning the finely pulverized matter after shooting out the quartz but there is so much of it they haven't as yet, found where the gold comes from, although' they think it most likely that it is held in the oxidised seams, as it looks much like placer gold. They think they have, without doubt, a first-class mine if developed, and one that can be very cheaply worked, owing to 8120 and location. ; . .. PUKELY PERSONAL. ; ROBT.
