Medford Oregon. Totally Destroyed By Fire. Tho largo steam saw-mill of Klippol & Marcuson, located on Galls creek, about fourteen miles north of Medford, burned to the ground last Thursday night about midnight. Not only was the mill burned, but four adjoining buildings, and 15f,000 feet of lumber were also destroyed. In the amount of lumber burned there was at least 90, 000 feet of clear lumber, and the whole of this year's run was a total loss. There is a difference of opinion as to the origin of the fire, but the general opinion is that the fire started in the vicinity of iho furnace, and after smouldering for several hours, burst out in the tire room in a pile of saw dust and shavings that were piled there. A man who was employed about the mill and who was sleeping in the mill did not awake until after the tlames had entirely encircled him, and he was obliged to dash through the tlames in order to save himself from being burned alive. On the log-way was at least a day's run of logs, and those, too, were con sumed by the flames, as was also the company's largo lumber wagon which had been loaded with pickets the night before. , Mr. Klippel has charge of the firm's lumber yard and business in this city, and was not at the mill during the fire. The total loss caused by the fire will be in the neighborhood of $7000, and the insurance was only $1800. There is now ready for the saw at the mill about 90,000 feet of logs, and in all probability the firm will rebuild at an early day. Tho loss is quite a heavy one for Messrs. Khppel & Marcuson, and is as well quite a heavy loss for Medford, as the firm had an extensive business in this city, nnd by the burning of the mill they will be considerably delayed in filling orders for lumber. The loss is more keenly felt because of the fact that these gentlemen have worked assiduously in the line of building up a good business, aud now that the goal is theirs it comes mighty tough. The insurance on tho above property was carried by the Sun of lxindon, A. M. Woodford, local agent, and this week the adjuster visited the fire scene and settled in full. Central Point Races.

The sad duty falls upon us this- week of chronicling the death of Jay Darnell, son of J. K. Darnell, of this city which occurred on Monday June 17, 1805, Jay waseighteeu years of age and had been ill for several months and while all possible was done by the attending physician and relatives to stay the work of the destroyer there has been little hoH5 entertained for several weeks, because of the fact that that most dreaded of diseases, consumption. had become too firmly rooted. I Uriel funeral services were held at i the residence on Wednesday and was j attended by a large concourse of peo- j pie, who had gathered to express their ' regard for the dead and sympathy for the living in their sad hour of bereave- inent. The remains were interred be- i side those of his mother, in the family j lot in the Masonic cemetery at Jack- sonville and were followed to the place i of their long rest by a large number of j friends. Tho grave was beautifully decorated with (lowers. The memo rial sermon will be delivered sometime in July at tho church. Deceased made profession of faith in Christ sev eral years ago and died trusting in Je sus of Nazareth.

We run wild over furnishing a house: ' its furniture, carpets, hangings, pic tures and musie,and always forget or neglect the most importaut requisite. Something there should pe always on the shelf to provide against sudden casualties or attacks of pain. Such coma like a thief in tho night; a sprain, strain' sudden backache, "toothache or neuralgic attack. There is nothiug easi er to get than a bottle of St. Jacobs Oil, and nothing surer tocure quickly any form of pain. The house is incomplete without it. Complete . it with a good supply. - Lsgal Blanks for bale at this offieo.
