MS OF THE CITY.
Wm. Smith, known the length and
breadth of the valley as "Tennessee,"
and who lives about tour miles south
and west of Medford, has one of the
very finest fruit farms in Southern
Oregon. It is so situated as to escape
any possible damage from frosts that
might happen along- after the fruit has
formed, and Mr. Smith is just as sure
of a full crop as he is that the seasons
will come. His crop this year was a
very fine one. He has shipped $500
worth of peaches to Portland ibis sea
son, and his other fruits have been
equally as productive of yellow gold.
He is now fattening about one hundred
head of hogs on cull peaches and other
fruits. About ten bushels of fruit is
thrown into & large kettle and when
thoroughly cooked is given to the hogs.
Fruit, he relates, is a good fattener,
but after a few weeks he will harden
his hogs up a little by feeding corn, of
which he has about forty acres. And
we must not forcet to state that there
is music a plenty at that pleasant farm
house, Mr. Smith having recently pur
chased an elegant piano from L. B.
Warner, of Medford.

There was a quiet little wedding
ceremony performed over at Jackson
ville last Tuesday, Judge uanna oni
ciating, in which a Medford young lady
played a promiuent part, the same beiug
iliss Alice McCulloch. The groom
was Mr. Frank Dickey, of Roseburg, a
prominent railroad man of that city,
and described by all the boys on the
line as a square, honorable gentleman
and a favorite everywhere. The bride
has been a resident of Medford for sev
eral years, she having mode her home
with Mr. and Mrs. H. G. Hurt, and has
lots of friends who are profuse in their
.congratulations. The happy couple
will set up housekeeping in Roseburg
where the groom has a neat little nome
prepared. The Mail, has only kind
worts for these people and we hope
their future may ever be all they now
picture it.

Section foreman Joe Kelley and his
Isther-tn-law, Mr. Hukeil, tbs later
of Talent, have purchased from B. S.
Webb the Merriman blacksmith shop,
that is, they have purchased lot and
building and half interest in the tools.
Mr. Merriman still has an interest iu
the tools, but as he is not overly anxious
to continue tho iron hammering busi
ness it is probable he too will sell to the
same parties. George, bas built up a
good business for the shop which will
be worth good money to the incoming
gentlemen, that is, if they decide to
buy him out. The consideration Mr.
Webb's interest, was $1200.
Mr. Smith last Saturday, in look
ing for the cheapest place in Medford
to trade, was directed by Mr. Jones to
Thompson & Meeker's, and as a result
went away happy and is coming again
this week with all his neighbors. Come

rcfuso lodgment to tho insistent tuber
cle bacilli. To eat plentifully, to live
day and night in fresh air and to rest
properly aro tho chief tenets of tho
method. Tho food is prepared by weight,
and, nolens voices, it must bo eaten. '.
Damp, rainy days keep no patient in
doors, end rainy, damp nights see no
ventilating windows shut. Evidently
tho berr doctor believes damp air is bet
ter than poisoned air, and it is poisoned :
uir that tho weakened lungs cannot

Ono feature of tho treatment is to rest j
by lying down ono hour before men la.
This is insisted upon. This accords with

SOMETHING IN HIS NECK.
i
' It TV's Two luche of 8tei l From a Cir
cular tisw, and Ho IMdn't Know It.
On Monday, Aug. 27 last, ono of tho
inserted tooth edger saws at the D. R.
Wingato Lumber company's 'mill got
into a bad way, and during the early
morning of that day cast several of tho
half circle springs that hold tbo teeth
in. The men ubont tho edgcr were on
the watch and kept to one sidu. Wil
liam Litchfield, head edger at that ina-
i chine, had just walked up, and while
cian lauccu jt. ihis seemed to relieve
him, but last Saturday l:o began to re
alizo thot there was a bard substance
just under tho skin immediately over
hia windpipe, and today became to Drs.
Hedra and Hewson and told them there
was scmcthiug iu his neck. Tbvy made
an incision and found a piece of metal,
bnt being uncertain m to its shape they
stopped to ask the patient to describe
it Litchfield told tho doctors he could
not give them au accurate description,
but to just stop riie bleeding a minute,
aud ho would go to tho mill and get
ono for them. This was done, and ha
marched off to tho mill, nearly a quar
ter of a mils, and retained in 20 min
utes with a half circle of steel half aa
inch wide and two inches from point to
point, threo-sistecuths of an inch ia
thickness and weighing fully an ounce.
Tto doctors togan feeling fcr tho lost
fpriug and finally mpped it out, cut
piece that Litchfield held in his hand.
As soon r-s tho c-.-oratioa was per
formed and the incision dressed the pa
tient weut homo and got his dinner, bnt
bo was in town this afternoon, looking
better and mora cheerful thaa be bad
r.t any timo siuco tho pieco of steel
forced its way into his neck. Oraugo

The medical profession ia London is
again puzzled l-y tho peculiar new dis
ease which has broken out at intervals
during several months past, principally
among tho inmates of t he London work
honscs. For want of a better uanio they
call it Jermatitis exfoliativa. The mor
tality, at first mere than 50 per cent, is
now comparatively low.
The first symptoms are inflammation
of tho skin, great irritation following
this. Tho f kin peels off in large patches.
Ia some cases there aro hemorrhages
under the skin. Ia others large blisters
are formed. Tho origin of the disease
Is a mystery. TThe patient usually be
comes esrremely weak and emaciated.
Tbo duration of the illness is variable.
It frequeutly continues several weeks.
The best authorities think it is con
tagious, but np to tho present, in spite
of the fact tbst tho bacillus has beea
differentiated anu ni:tToseop:caI!T ex
amined, so little is known of the na
ture of the disorder that the medical
profession confess themselves complete- J
ly puzzled. The ciseose is cistaictly a
new one.
How Etnln Instuk V."i Murdered.
Dorsey Mohua, tha American con
sular agent, recently arrived iu London
from tho Congo, tells tho story or the
murder cf Kmiu Pasha as learned by
him iu au interview with one cf tho
murderers before the lattcr's execution.
Kmiu had addressed a request to Ki
bougo, tho sultan of Kiruudu, forper
missiou to pass throngh his territory.
Tho request was granted, but the sultau
sent secret orders to Said, ono of his
vassals, to ossassiuato tho- explorer.
Said's emissaries found Kmiu in his
tent aud notified kim that they had or
ders to kill him. Ho wanted them that
his death would be terribly avenged by
his white brothers. Heedless of his prot
estations, the four murderers laid vio
lent hands upon him. One held his
head, another his arms, a third his feet,
while tho fourth dealt tho mortal blow.
Emiu's men. dispersed in tho surrcr.ud
ing fields, wero tuawaroof tho murder.
Two Littlo Moons of Mors.
Tho two moons cf Mars, Bcimos and
Phobos, wero observed nt tho observa
tory at Flagstaff on Sept 10. Deiinos,
tho outer one, is tho smaller, being, it
is estimated, about six miles in diame
ter, while its companion is slightly
larger, somo seven miles in diameter,
thu entire snrfaco of either of them be
ing not more than the area of sorao
great farms in the far west.
Tho possibility of seeing such Email
objects so great a distance is a triumph
of modern optics, they being observed
nt a distance of more than -i0,00l,000
miles. A homo comparison would bo
the seeing of a two inch ball at a dis
tance equal to that between Boston aud
