In the shadow ot her great Brief sue stands out even more Bsminously than she dtd In her love ly youth when, briicht-eyed and light atepplns as the fawn, she entered the doon of the While House to become fab first lady of tbe land. Row that the passing years- have saade the college girl a wife, mother' and widow, her life may be ald '.a fce fairly rounded out, and she inoy e re gar find as a character formed an4 bit lifted to completion That she Mas Htin many years of life before aer to enjoy as far as the loss of her great husband will permit. Is the hope of all her countrymen end coun trywomen ; but henceforward, though she Is still comparatively yoang, her life will be more in the pan than In the future. When Frances Folsom became t'i Rest fadr nf the land she was In pos anaiuu of all those gifts which go ' mate? a woman proud and happy. She was young and exceptionally beautiful. She was cultured and framed as though she were foreor dained to occupy the high place to which she ascended. The nation in stantly fell In lore with her and her awpulnrtty eiceeded that of almost aoy American woman who had "re ceded her or who has since come al ter her. If any woman ever had an excuse tor a! low In f: herself to be spoiled, It was this lovely, chaiming coMee r") who became the wife of the presi dent or the United States. But from Mo first moment she held herself in perfect poise, bearing her honors wMh a modesty tbat amounted nc.ir ty to humility. She assumed her di- tin wfth a clear sense of what tho-:e woxies meant, realizing to the full thai she stood before all the da ligh ten, wives and mothers of the na tion as an example.

MEDFORD, ORE FOR PURE DRUGS FOR RUBBER GOODS FOR CHOICEST PERFUMES FOR TOILET ARTICLES GO TO THE Eagle Pharmacy Prescriptions Carefully Compounded with a wonderful grace al nil the functions of state and bore hcr.'i'ii as a queen might do, yet rtMVr iW getting that ahe was au Amerki n and that her country had the same concern for tbe humblest wnmuii in the land that It has for the high:. When tho reponibl)UtKs of troth erhood came to her she proved a model mother; her home wa lior heaven; her fireside was br altrr, aa It still will be, though beaide It now there stands the vacant chi fr that can be filled no more. She Is a woman whose life has been fo as to make Impressive her profound belief that she who sanctifies i:ir home Is the woman who lives mot after God's heart. Mrs. Cleveland bus never atepped a single foot from her pathway to gain tbe applause or to attract tho attention of the people. Yet '.t 's our conviction that there are In V i erlca today few women so well m loved by all the people. In f'te years to come the nation will retail her with particular affection r.nd will cherish her with ttuecial '.'ate. It Is said that republics are ungnle ttil, but this republic will never be ungrateful to Frances Folsom Cleve land for having given to It a UHH.e! of womanhood. We trust that a she wullis down the slanting shadous of tbe afternoon of life her days may be filled with peace and that time will bring Us balm to the wetin U from which her gentle heait li'iffer today.

J Mens, president of the Mens Lumber company, who has just returned from a four months' tour of Kastern mar kets, declares that . the retailers In ibe Kast and Middle West have smuller stock on hand than for 20 years past. He declares that unless the Pad flcf coast manufacturers do not orce tlielr lumber on the market now the retailers will buy heavily In the fall at good prices. He declared that the farmers were buying lumber In good quantities. "Lumber and shingle manufactur ers of tne Haclflc coast are making a great mistake In forcing their product upon the market," Mr. Menz dec la led. "They could obtain at least $100 a car more than they now get If they would cease manufactur ing In advance of an actual realiza tion of orders. The stock thus pro duced Is crowded upon the market and buyers are deterred from making their usual fall purchases, believing that still lower values may prevail. "retailers of lumber and shingles soon will be obliged to purchase, re- arilles of their caution not to buy until absolute bottom Is reached. The mllU producing red cedar sidlug are receiving practically as high prices to Jay aa they were able, to obtain d.iring the limes of high prosperity. This U not due to a reavy demand for red cedar siding, but to a limi tation of production. This object lesson sl.ould not be Ignored by lum ber unit shingle manufacturers of tne Northwest and the Pacific coast."

Griffith of Portland today arrested three Roseburg citizens, Louis Kohl gen. Joe uilp and L. S. Shipley, pur suant to Indictments which were re turned against the men In the gov ernment land-fraud cases. Bench warrants for the three men were is sued out of the Federal court in Portland two days after the indict ments were returned. In each case the amount of bonds was fixed at $1000. These were furnished by tbe defendants upon arraignment this evening before United States Com missioner W. V. Calkons of Eugene, who came from Eugene this after noon for that purpose. These ar rests are the result of the rush for land which were filed upon at the land office In this city last April. It has later developed that nearly ev ery claim has either a squatter or a miner contestant, and the result Is that nearly all of those who filed up on the land at that time, some 20 in number, are liable to arrest on the charge of perjury, tne charge upon which the above-mentioned men were arrested. Marshal Griffith admitted today that he has warrants of arrest for other persons In the land cases, but he declined to make known the uames of the parties wanted or where they reside.
