A golden opportunity will then be offered for that much talked of in vestigation. It is the duty of the grand jury to investigate the books of the county oScers. mm mm The almost assured success in the Rogue river valley can be at tributed wholly to the diversity of farming persuits. There is not a season of the year but that the fanner has a product of his soil with which to supply the market. Neakly three miles of good sub stantial sidewalk has been put down in Medford the past season. Aside from this there has been done no small amount of street grading as well also has there been put down a goodly number of cross walks, some of them flag-stone. Where is there a city of its size that can beat this record ? The schools of Medford are most prominent among the incentives which have prompted the steady, substantial growth of our city. The school buildings are large, beau tiful structures, and the school rooms are presided over by teachers holding high grade certificates .and who have been tested in school work and fount eminently qualified as instructors. Thirty-six students are now enrolled at the Medford business college, which is decidedly a good showing considering the existing condition of affairs. The school is now so well established that its permanency is no longer a question. Prof. Rigby is conducting a school well worth the reputation it has so widely gained. When students speak so well of a school as they do of the Medford business college there need be little fear as to its success. This-from Hills Code of Oregon: "They (the grand jury) shall be entitled to free access at all times to the prisons and offices, also to the examination, without charge, of all public records in their coun ty." Would some of the officials' books in Jackson county stand a very thorough investigation ? The taxpayers of the county are satis fied there is crookedness some where. Will the next grand jury please locate this monkey business and by so doing immortalize them selves as public benafactors ? Medford is unquestionably a city destined to be the metropolis of Southern Oregon. Her people are posessed of a spirit of energy which never loses an opportunity to give the wheel of prosperity a turn. 1 During the past summer when bus iness beyond our border was in a most inert state our . city flour ished as the palm tree of olden times. Stringency in money mat ters has without a doubt been felt less jn Medford and Jackson coun ty than any other locality jn the United States. Our bank did not close its doors, neither did anv of of our merchants assign or go into bankruptcy. Considering all things we have been and still are a pros penfus community. - 'No Other Sarsaparilla has the merit to hold the confidence of entire communities year after year, as has HoodV Sarsaparilla.

The Japanese government contem plates the construction of six lines of railway.aggrefrating' S00 miles in length. The purchase of the private railways by the state is also projected. Osr foggy winter days English rail ways omployjthousands of citra hands to place detonating signals on rails, the ordinary semaphores being invisible. A new method of signalling is by an elec tric bell on the locomotive, a contact device causing each signal station to sound automatically tho number of beats required to tell whether to stop or proceed.

' HIT EY A. METEORITE, Tho Startling Experience of a Llfo Inaurr anco Agent in Atiaaanrl. "I em, perhaps, the only man in America who .was ever hit by an aero lite," said Col. Sid Fonttrinb. to a St Louis :Globc-Democrat man. "I'm in tho life insurance business, and one day last week procured a buggy and drove out from Scdaliu. to a farmhouse to set tle up a loss. It was nightfall when I started home, but the sky was clear, the road good and I was making excel lent time. I noticed that there were an unusual number of 'shooting stars,' and some of remarkable brilliancy. Suddenly the road was lit up with a glare .equal to that of the noonday sun, only it had an orango tinge. 1 planted up, and a ball of fire as large as my hat seemed to :bo eoming right down upon me. Before I could think, much less act, it plunged into tho buggy, blinding me for a moment by its glaro, went through and buried itself in the ground. It bored a hole in the bottom of tho buggy as large as a saucer and j triangular in shape. It made a hissing I noise as it foil, reminding me of the ! blull of an enormous gander. My horse took fright anil I had considerable difli- culty in controlling him. I did not lraow that I was hurt until I had riddon fully a mile, when my left foot bciran to pain me. I examined it and found that the great toe was washed flat Mid one of the' large bones in my foot broken. That s why I go on crutches. If I could find that meteorite and dig- it up I think we two might get a position in a dime museum." - THE SILENT CITY. Wonderful Mlrftga of a Town That la Vet UnldeaMflod. Many stories have been written about mirages and delusions, but none more interesting and curious than that of tho Silent City illusion, which makes its appearance near the Pacific glacier, in Alaska. The discovery of this wonderful mirage, says the New York Weekly, was made by the Indians, who often tell of the city which was built in tho clouds. The mirage can be seen in the early part of July, from five to six p. ra. It rises from the side of tho Pacific glacier. It first appears like a heavy mist, and soon becomes clearer, and one can distinctly see the specter city, well defined streets and trees, tall spires, huge and odd shaped buildings, which appear to bo ancient mosques and ca thedrals. It is a city large enough to contain at least twenty-five or thirty thousand inhabitants. As yet no one has been able to identify it, although several hnvc claimed to recognize the place. There is no city like it in Alaska, nor in any country about it for thousands of miles.. . Some claim it is a city in Rus sia, others say it is a city in England, but none can toll what or where it is. The mirage was given the name of "Silent City," as it appears to one like a dead city; there is nothing to indi cate that it is the pictured reflection of an inhabited place. Kot OnUnmrEj in tho Market, There was a man in Chicago the other day showing off a fifteen hundred-dollar rug. It was made in Moscow and took one man two years to put the pieces together. Finished, the rug has the appearance of a rich mosaic, the deep yellow of the tier woven into the coal black of the South sea seal in diamond-shaped blocks. The center is rnadii up of three rings of a diameter of twenty inches, the patch-like diamond pieces radiating from a circular tuft of monkey skin a nd bordered by a rim of otter. The ground work of the entire piece is on monkey skin. In the make up pieces of tho furs from the Russian sable, Persian lamb. Angora goat. China goat, mink, otter. South sea seals, monkey, Thibet lamb, muskrat, weasel, leopard and the Eussian silver-gray fox are used. An Old-Fuhloncd Came. A funny form pf sport revived now and then at western county fairs and carnival amusements is the barrel race. Xo doubt it is very old in its origin, go ing back at least to ancient times in England, as do most of our out-door diversions. At a point about midway in the racecourse a row of barrels is placcd.with the heads knocked out. Each sprinter is assigned his barrel, through which he must crawl before complet ing the running. The antics of the con testants in endeavoring to make good time through these obstacles never fail to set the crowd of spectators in a roar. Sometimes a man gets fast in the barrel and rolls about helpless on the ground until his more fortunate competitors have reached the goal. FUN ON THE SIDE.
