Discussions Had Upon Various Topics New Officers Elected Banquet at the Nash. The Southern Oregon Medical association met in the A. O. U. V. hall in this city Tues day, May 14th, at 11 a. m. The meeting was called to order by the president, Dr. J. S. I'arsons, of Ashland, Dr. E. P. Geary, of Medford, acting as secretary pro tem. Minutes of the previous meeting were read and approved. Dr. Joseph Myers, of Grants Pass, made application for member ship in the association, and upon motion was elected. Later in the day Dr. li. Officer, of Eagle Point, made application for mem bership, and was also elected. After the transaction of other minor matters, the annual address of the president was read. The subject was a review of the princi ples of bactenotherapy. It miite lengthy and was a well pared article. He dwelt at some ; and meeting if only once in a year length upon the anti-toxine treat- for the purpose of friendly dis'eus ment for diphtheria, his remarks j sion of new methods of treatment, being confined to scientific figures ; ew medicines, and relating past and principles. Taken as a whole the address was one of more than ordinary interest, and was highly appreciated by the members pres ent. A general discussion followed the reading of the address, and Dr. E. B. Pickel, of Medford, offered some very interesting remarks up on the subject of anti-toxine treat ment, lie being the only physician niwnt irhnW n.l minitirp.l U.o - - remedy for the fatal disease. He explained in detail the manner ol administering the medicine, the mode of treatment and the ultimate t , , , , . , , ,! Aruiur uhikiih, m ! and speedy result which followed lxHn ppojnU.d agon : in the case treated by him. Drs. jcgon for the Canadia VanDvke, Dollar, Moore and Krc- nu-r also took part m hn r!is 1110 OIM Us- j sion, ana their remarks were very ! instructive 11S well as interesting. On motion a vote of thanks was) ! tm., Mr P.r.n,,.- f. ,r ln n 1 .!. address. The election of officers was fje taken up and lr. DeHar was chosen president by acclamation. Dr. K. P. (ieary was also chosen by accla mation for secretary and treasurer. After a few remarks by the new ly elected president, discussion of cases and reading of papers was again taken up, and Dr. Van Dyke, of C5 rants Pass, reported a case of treatment of gunshot wound in shoulder joint, which was fully ex plained and upon which the doctor was congratulated for his success in savins: his patient's arm. Dr. Vandyke also told of a case of am - . . r.i r . .... r .... putation of the fore arm, for cancer on the hand. Three unique surgical cases were reported by Dr. Geary, and a short discussion followed. Dr. Pickel then read a paper on vaginal hysterectomy, with a full description of the case treated. A general discussion followed the reading of each of the papers, in which all members took part, after which the meeting adjourned for dinner, which was served at Hotel Nash at 2 p. in. The fact that the dinner was served by the members of the association residing in Med ford, and by their orders was spe cially prepared, and a glance at the bill of faro following, will readily convince . even ho of Delmonico tastes of its superbness and its abil ity to satisfy the inner man. The menu as served was as follows: Oyster Soup. Kudishe.x, Young Onions. Ollvi-s, Miikc-d Fresh Fish, Tomato Sauce Spring Chicken. Koust Sirloin of Heef. Mushed Potiitoes. tin-en Teas. Lettuce, with Muyoiumise. lMuln Hreml, Couni lllscuit. Crackers. Vunllln Ice Cream, Assorted Cakes. Nuts. oranges. Iced Ten. ColTee. After dinner was over the partici pants returned to the hall, where an hour was very pleasantly spent in smoking cigars, telling experi ences and spinning favorite yarns, when the meeting was again called to order and business resumed. The president appointed Dr. Brower, of Ashland, and Dr. Kre mer, of Grants Pass, censors for the ensuing year. A letter from Dr. Daly, of Lake view, was then read by the secre tary, in which he expressed his deepest regrets at his inability to be present at the meeting, which was placed on file. On motion, Drs. Geary, Parsons and Pickel were appointed a com mittee to draft suitable resolutions of respect to Dr. Rowland ,Pryce, a copy of same to bo presented to Mrs. Pry ce. A vote of thanks was tendered the Medford physicians for the kind treatment and hospitality shown the visitors. There being no further business, the association adjourned, to meet at Jacksonville on the second Tues day in May, 1S0G. Following are the names of those in attendance: Drs. D. M. Brower, J. S. Parsons, Ashland; James S. Moore, W. T. Kremer, F. AW Van Dyke, Joseph Myers, Grants Pass; Geo. O'B. DcBar, Jacksonville; W. B. Officer, Eagle Point; J. P. Wait, E. P. Geary, K. B. Pickel, Medford. There is u:ore than ordinary sig nificance attached to meetings of this nature, as in the hands of these men the lives of many per- was pons are often placed, and by form-pre- j jnjT themselves into an association experiences, much good is bound to result. 1 lien again, they are ena bled to guard against the imposi tion by unskilled men who travel through the country and impose their presence upon the public.

It was the tenth birth day of little Clarice White and eleventh birthday of little Bernico Angle. To make the occasion a moro pleasant one, the two little ladies celebrated the event jointly, and accordingly invited a number of their young friends to bo present. There were about a dozen or fifteen present and an awfully nice tinio was enjoyed. During the after noon games of various nature were indulged in fund at tea time refresh ments of ice cream and cake were served. Tho older members of tho two families did all possible to amuse the young people and they succeeded admirably. Aside from the members of tho two families there were present, Gertrude Odgers: Helen Wait, Jennie Woodford, Anna Johnson, Laura Ben nett, Artie Bennett, Bernico Sayre, Hazlo Tiee, Olivo Hart, Daisy Howard, Gertrude Stewart, and Lulu Porter. BICYCLES AND BICYCLISTS. .1. A. Whitman will soon have in stock a supply of "Crescent' wheels, which are said to be high grade. If there is not less reckless riding on Hide walks in the residence portions of the city, there Is going to be trouble. The state agricultural board has au thorized the letting of a contract for the construction of a bicycle track on the fair grounds at Salem. The order . is for a three-lap track inside the main track. Those wheelmen who are contem plating a little "flying" on the glorious Fourth had better get to training pret ty soon. Medford and yicinity has a number of good wheelmen and some good records are looked for. Tom Winder, the journalist, who is making a trip around the edge of the United States on a wheel, passed through Medford last week. He was compelled to walk much of the way across the Siskiyous on account of rough roads. It is understood that the Studebaker Wagon company will soon receive, at their warerooms in Portland, a ship ment of 1000 standard high grade wheels, which they propose to put on the market at 8i5 each. They could sell about a carload of them out this way at that figure. The Bicycle club has decided to pur chase an eightaere tract of land over near B. S. Webb's place, and upon this build their track. The club promises to have the track ready for the Fourth. There will be a grand stand built and everything put in shape to make it a place of much pleasure. A number of the lady bicyclists of Medford have expressed a desire to join the bicycle club, provided there is to be no racing for money on the track. As the gentleman members have promised there shall be nothing of this natute on the track and there is no rule prohibiting the ladies, the club will without a doubt be thus aug mented . , There is no good reason why anyone should go wiihout a "wheel" in this locality if it is only variety to select from that thev want.
