An Intresting Session of
the Southern Oregon
Medical Society.
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

remedy for the fatal disease. He
explained in detail the manner ol
administering the medicine, the
mode of treatment and the ultimate

! and speedy result which followed lxHn ppojnU.d agon

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.

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.

ulations, and have one scale of

fit in the nub c mxiri which thev

The Little Folk's Birthday.
Last Saturday a birthday party was
celebrated at tho beautiful large resi
dence of Attorney G. V. White, in
east Medford. 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. We have six
(dealers and all claim to be handling;

' bicycle race in Medford on the Fourth.
