The horse is two years old and' was imported from Franoe last year. He was exhibited st the St. Louis World's fair and took first prize and two medals in an exhi bit of a collection of colt of his age. At the Royal Livestock show at Kan sas Oity he also von first prize in his class. Bit ofBloal weight at St. Louis was 1920 pounds, and the price paid for him by the R. .R. "V. S. B. A. was 5,000. Pretty good price for horse flesh, but the owners figure on com hut out more than even. The hone comes-from the best strains .of the French black Percheron blood, and will be a great acquisition to this sec- tion. The animal will be under the supervision of J.

City Council Proceedings. The special session of the city coun- clldjourned from Fr day evening. wsa held at the city ball Monday night. Present Mayor Piokel, Counoilmen Luy. Soott, Kelly, Wilson. An ordinance was passed granting the Medford commercial o a ape- oial rate of 5oentB per Kilo-Watt hour on lights. TniB action was taken, Btated in the ordinance,in view of the fact that the club was organized for public benefit and not for private gain, and that its operation would be for the good of the oity and the community at large. Two sidewa k resolutions were Dassed. One requiring the construc tion of a walk on the inorth side of Third street, from O to G streets, and the other requiring a walk on the west side of J street, from 5th to 4th street and west along the north side of 4th street for a distance of 87 feet Part of thiB walk is that ordered torn up by the oounoil at a previous meeting, owing to the own ers of the property failing to pay for the same. The new walk will be Hen against the property. v ; ,' ' An order was made calling a ffi nioipal eleotion, to take place on the second Tuesday ia January, 1905 January 10, 1905, for the eleotion of ;a ritv treasurer, city recorder, one llmon In ( nonnoilman in the first ward for a period of two years ; two counoilmen in the second ward, one for one year and one for two years; one council man in the third ward for two years, The voting places are: The city hall for the first ward, the Wihson build- ins on South C street for the second ward and Perry's warehouse for the third ward. The following judges and olerks were appointed: Win. An el. iudra: Frank Jordan, J. W. -i u ma-A T R Wil ! judge;' olerks. i Jones ob the Beetles. Rev. Sam Jones, the . evangelist, sometimes talks politics. We take it for oranted that he voted for Mr. Parker in the recent eleotion, but he ia neither soured nor in despair over the result. In a letter to the Atlanta Journal be takes ajhopeful view of the situation, saying among other things: "After all. an election is but as ex preseion of the choice of the people, and the majority " h this country rules, although Teddy got about a two-thirds majority. , I have met ho one who had on mourning,' or seemed to be in' sackcloth and ashea. Ten- cent cotton 'soothes- our sorrows, heals our wounds, and drives away our cares.' The South is financially and commercially 'in the saddle, ' and although we lost politically, we' are ahead in a thousand ways. Cotton to burn, corn to sell, sorghum and hay to let, debts paid and money in the bank. We have got a heap to shout over. We can thank God and take courage. Georgia and every Southern state has as good a president Pennsylvania, or New York, or Michigan.') New Orleans Christian Advocate. The Georgia Harper Company. The Georgia Harper Co. has been playing to good houses at the Wilson opera house during the week, and the audiences generally have been pleased Monday night, "The Power of Love" was produced, and Tuesday "The Two Orphans" was the bill. Wednes day night MIbs Harper appeared in her favorite role, "Camille," and her rendition of the character of "Les dames aux Camelias" was all that has been claimed for it Miss Harper is a charming and versatile actress, and her company is up to the average of traveling organizations of the class.

The tunnel at the Golden Spike mine, near Ashland, is now in 670 feet, a shaft is being sunk from the Shorty-Hope mine to connect with this tunnel. A. E.

McKinley are principal defendants opened Tuesday, in Judge Bellinger'B court at Portland. It was announced at the conclusion of the first trial that the second one would be much shorter, but it is now . said that the defense will put up a strong fight, end introduce a number of witnesses. Senator Mitchell and Representative Hermann have both written Judge Bellinger from Washington, that, ow ing to the pressure of public buBinesB they will be unable to appear as wit nesses in the case. The motion for a new trial in the former oases was over ruled by Judge Bellinger, and the petition for arrest of judgment was denied. Jndge O'Day' thes filed a .plea- of former conviction, former Jeoprady and ad judication, which after being argued by counsel on both sides, was denied by the court The court held that there might be many agreements to defraud proved, because there had been many agree ments made, But the same proof could not be UBed to prove the differ ent agreements. In that case the court would have to conclude that the crimes were identical, and order that the jury take such aotioe. If the fsctB of the case as tried tend to show a separate agreement then the different offenses can be proved and the trial 'can proceed, , Judge Bellin ger, however, stated that while his convictions were positive, hie reasons were not entirely dear, inasmuch as there was much to be said Upon the' side of the defense, and that he would not make final and definite state ment until later in th trial, a ooca sion might demand.

But as I was hurrying along I heard some one calling me and on looking around saw my aunt on the porch. I stopped and asked what she wanted and sho said for me to come there. I went and she told of several grocer ies she wanted me to send up. I said I would order them at noon ; but she said she would rather have them or dered on my way to school, so they would be sent up ia the morning. I said I would and hurried on. When I was half way to the gate, she called me back to ask how my mother was. Itold her and started again. When I'got to town I went into the first grocery store and ordered her tea and sugar, but they didn't have the kind of breakfast food she wanted, so I had to eo to another store.
