NEWS OF THE CITY.
Geo. S. Farren died at the home of
, his uncle, F. M. Plymale, in this city,
: Sunday. August 30th, after an illness
-of many mouths' duration. Mr. Farren
was born in Jacksonville and was
twenty years of age on the 22d of April
last. He was the only one left ot a
family of four children, and his par--ents
are both dead. His malady was
. that of consumption, and it was this
.same disease that took from1 life both
his parents. This fact, together with
that of the death of two brothers and
- -one sister makes his early death par
ticularly a sad one. The remains were
laid away in the Jacksonville cemetery
'Tuesday beside that of his mother,
brother and sister, and were followed
to their last resting place by a large
concourse of sorrowing relatives and
friends. During the young man's stay
" in Medford. which dates from early last
.spring, everything possible was done in
the way of medical attention and
kindly administrations and nursing by
Ms uncle-and family.but the disease was
:SO firmly rooted before coming here
that all which was done availed naught.

Prof. Day Parker has been elected
principal of the Gold Hill school, and
- Miss Frances Barnes elected assistant.
Mr. Parker has previously taught this
. school and must have given satisfaction
at that time else why his second en
gagement. Day is an educator of very
; sterling qualities and a gentleman
whose efforts are always in the interest
of advanced school work. Since his
ablitity to guide aright the mind of
youth has been proven by his having
been given a first grade certificate, and
this with a standing of 94 out of a
possible 100 marks, at the recent
county examination, the people of
Gold Hill need have no fear for the
well-being of their schools. Miss
- Barnes, his assistant, is a very capable
"young lady and while her school work
-as teacher has not been extensive it
-has all been earnest and praiseworthy.

John Bigham, the man who grows
big watermelons, remembered The
Mail office last Saturday with a fine
luscious melon that tipped the scale
beam at forty-five pounds. The Port
land papers have had much to say
about two large melons from eastern
Oregon that were placed on exhibition
in that city which weighed respectively
44 and 42 pounds, but they don't come
up to the Jackson county melons in size
and we will venture they don't surpass
Mr. 8igham's in quality.

patronage also extends to nearly every

broom and his success is well meritted.
This year he grew his own broomcorn
and it is of a splendid quality and lots
of it.

The Industrial Exposition.
The Portland Industrial Exposition
will be held this year from September
19th to October 17th. W. M. Evans, a
representative of the exposition was in
the valley a couple of weeks ago arrang
ing for exhibits from Jackson county.
He found the people hereabouts hardly
satisfied with the treatment exhibits
from this part of the country received at
the last exposition. A number of our
citizens, however, promised him that if
he could explain away the seeming care
lessness and neglect before experienced
thev would again gather Home exhibits.
and send them in. The Mail asked him.
if the criticism here was unjust, to have
their chairman write us a letter stating
the case as it then stood, and here is
what he writes:

some adverse criticism, and some 111 feeling
displayed toward our exposition. As I was

sure you, and the good people of Jackson county.
woo so Kinaiy cooperniea wun us last year,
that if there were any mistakes made, they
were entirely unintentional. We bad an im
mense exhibit of products I never handled
anything so stupendous before. We were in a
great rush, and that mistakes occurred, cannot
be aouutea. 1 regret very inucti it mere is any
ill feeling amongst the people of your vicinity,
for the reason thai there were several very en
thusiastic and energetic gentlemen in your vi
cinity, who di( much to make Ibe exhibit from
Jackson county, a success. We endeavored to
label everything from each county, and to a
great extern it was so done. However, there is
a possibility that many of the exhibits were
not labeled, as we had intended doing. I have
things much better syslemized this year, and I
feel sure that all exhibits will be properly
labeled, and properly placed on exhibition.
Through the efforts of the immigration board,
the attention of the people In the east is di
rected to the Pacific Northwest, nud we antici

like to have your section well represented, so

you that any errors that wero made, were un
Intentional. I did not note that there was any
criticism whatever, until Mr. Evans wrote me
concerning It, and I now hasten to assure you,
llml if at this late day I can do anything to
correct the ill feeling, or the most seeming un
just treatment, that I shall be most happy to do
so. I thoroughly realize tbe fact that our ex
position canuot be a success, wlthont the as
sistance and co-operation ot our people in the
country. The country Is dependent upon tbe
city, and the city equally, or more so. dependent
upon the country. I would like to have con
tinued cooperation, so as to make our exposi

Death of Mr. Joseph N. Woody.
For some five months past tbe
health or Mr. Joseph N. Woody
has been very poor, in fact, his trouble
which lead up to his death dates back
something like five years at which time
his decline began and from that day to
his death, which occurred last Monday,
August 31st, he had scarcely known a
perfectly healthy day, but for the past
five months his decline had been more
marked and to his family it was evident
that he was not long for this life. Uis
death occurred at bis farm residence,
three miles' east of Medford, which
place has been hi home for many years
