THE MEDFORT) DAILY TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDAY, MARCH 19, 1900.
CHOICE MISCELLANY
The Wealth of Our Nation.
lu 1810 tbe Lulled Stutea held th
fourth rauk aiuuug the manufacturing
nations. Great Britain, Frunce and
Germany were ahead of us, lu tbe or
tier named. We passed ureut Britain
lit 1880, and today tbe aggregate of our
manufactures equala that of Great
Britain, Germany and France com
Lined. Tbe value of our products of
luauu fact urea has doubled since 1886.
The value of our exports of manu
fuctures bas doubled sluce 1898. In
tbe ralue of tbe property represented
manufactures rank tblrd among tbe
treat activities of tbe United States,
agriculture being first and tbe rail
roads being second, but In tbe u um
ber of persons employed agriculture la
tbe only interest wblch leads manu
factures. Manufactures are far abead
of agriculture In tbe value of tbe prod
ucts. Tbe money Invested lu manu
factures represents an elgbtb of tbe
value of all tbe real and personal prop
erty In tbe country. Tbe United States
manufactures 33 per ceut of all tbe
manufactured products of tbe world.
Tbe value of tba farm property of tbe
United States Increased from $7,080,
000,000 In 1800 to $20,514,000,000 In
l&OO and about $25,000,000,000 In 1008.
Taming Patti.
Pattl was to sing on a certain date
at Bucharest, but at tbe last moment
she declined to leave Vienna. It was
too cold; snow everywhere; she would
not risk catching her doutb of cold.
M. Scburniann, the Impresario, was lu
dps pair until a brilliant liinpirntion
came to him. Quickly be telegraphed
to the advance agent lu the Iloumn
nlan capital: "At whatever cost Pattl
must receive an ovation at Bucharest
station from the Italian aristocracy
Bend me by return tbe following wire:
The me u ilers of the Italian and Rou
manian nobility are preparing to give
Mme. Pattl a magnificent reception.
Tbe ministry will be represented. Pro
cessions, torches and bnuds. Tele
graph the hour of arrival.' " The ad
vance agent carried out this instruc
tion, and when the telegram dictated
to blin over the wires arrived In Vi
enna It was handed to Pattl. with the
desired effect. "How charming!" she
murmured. "What time d we start?"
Hit Wonderful Invention.
Australia, as Is well known, Is In
fested with rabbits, a most destructive
and multitudinous pest. Not long ugo
!a man Invented the following plan:
You go out Into the field from which
the rabbits are to be removed. You
saw down a tree, and on tbe slant of
the stump you paint a black spot.
Then you keep very quiet, so that tho
rabbits will come back from tln'lr bur
rows and feed ns usual. When n
large enough number has collected you
clap your bands sharply. The effect
will be electric. The rabbits will jump
lu baste for Ihofr burrow. At least
one Is sure to mistake the hljH'k spot
for bis hole and make for It. Invaria
bly be will dnsh his brains mil. This
process, repeated often enough. Is
warranted to exterminate the rabbit
forever.
Tbe reports do not say whether
there are any rabbits left In Australia.
Twin Place.
One day an old gentleman who
found tbe Java village at the World's
fair very absorbing at length rontided
In a young man standing near. "It's
powerful nice to watch." he ld. "hut
I may say I should be better ou't If I
was a trille better posted. My jogra
phy'a a leetle rusty, and It's truth and
fact that ! don't Jestly know where
Java Is. Now, where Is It?'
"Oh." said the young man. with the
assured quiet of one who knows, "just
a little way from Mocha!" Argonaut.
Making It Easier.
Uttle Jean's dolly had met with an
accident, and her mother had procured
a new head for It. Tbe removal of
the old head proved to be a rather
ditm-ult task, which Jean watched
with great intercut,
Tiu afraid, Jeau, I can't get this
old bead off," said the mother.
Jean's face glowed with the light of
an Inspiration as she said:
"Never mind, mamma; Just take tbe
body off."
A Teaser.
There Is one subject on which It Is
difficult to keep up interest?"
"What particular subject Is that on
which it is difficult to keep up inter

"The mortgage of my house."

The story was told of an American
who happened to be crossing tbe ocean
ome yearn ago on tbe Fourth of July,
which national holiday was celebrated
with great enthusiasm by tbe Amerl-
ails on board.
"1 say." asked one of tbe English-
nen, "what Is this the anniversary or
myhow? Isn't It to celebrate the bat
tle of Bull Hon or something of that

"No," promptly spoke up an Amert
n. "not Bull Run-John Bull Run.'

Jud Peruoll, the Grants Pass ''south
paw," is uiiikiug arrangements to go to
Aberdeen, Wash., about tho 20th of
this mouth, where he will go into train
ing with tho Aberdeen ball team. Ho
was only with tho Abordoen team tbe
lutter part of lust BeaBon, but he made
good and brought them from the bot
tom of tbe list of tho Northwest league
to third place. There is no doubt that
ho will innke good this season, as he
has now had more experience aud is on
to the ways of tbe big plavers, and by
another season will be with some of the
big leagues.
The Herald: .Sunday marked the
opening of the baseball season in this
section of Oregon, a lively tilt between
the Central Point Cubs (secoud teura)
and the Woodville team taking place
at tbe latter town, in which tho Cubs
kept imp their town's previous record
of bringing in the longest string of
scalps. Tommy Kinenid, "the bov with
.t future," tossed the ball for the local
team, and his work showed the same
jnad points of last season, only needing
a bit of praetice to get him in perfect
i'orm for the season. Kiucnid walkod
three men in this game, ns did his oppo-
i out, which was not so bad for boys.
White, tho Wood vile pitcher, had bet
ter luck in striking out men, getting
r.evt in Pointers, while ICincaid atch
'em oonly five of the Woodvillittns.
For the first four innings it looked
nighty bilious for the Woodville boys,
tor no sign ol a snml! of anything like
run decorated their totem pole, while
lie Cubs li:il seven big, elegant scalps
lainrlirg at their belt lit the end of the
''mirth. Then Woodville broke the ice
and piclii'd up one, rind in the six thoy
repented the dastardly net. la the sev
enth the Cubs picked up three nice ones,
but in the eighth Woodville got mad
anad packed in five. That finishod
iheiu, however, and in the ninth Fnrra
tinned nmniul and brought in one.
ivhich made the score 7-11.

forts for the baseball players than any

Tho Central Point Herald obser?eth
thusly: Mod ford and Jacksonville also
attempted to play a game Sunday at the
latter town, but then was nothing to
it except the enormous score of 21 to
9 in favor of Jnektown. Mod ford are
so encouraged that they were not white
washed that they are going to play
Casoy 's Colts when they arrive from
Portland.
Crrants Pass. March 19. With the
warm days the baseball fever in this
city is about as prevalent as measles
and whooping cough and the result is
that Grants Pass expects to have the
best team in the field this year they
have had in some time. The team hns
been organized for some weeks and the
boys have been working out and selec
tions of regulars and substitutes trom
tho largest bunch of material that the
city ever had has resulted in selecting
t. first-class team.
It is not only the vounger element
of the citv that has tho baseball fever
in this citv this vear, but the older ele
ment, tho long ago fans, who played
when baseball was not so fast as it is
now. who have gotten into tho harness
and nre urging the boys on. They have
not dono this by word of mouth, but
ost of .tho prominent business men
have- loosened the purse strings and
contributed liberally towards tho sup
port of tho tenm. New uniforms have
been ordered and will be here in a day
or two. The grounds are going to bo
ixed up in an up-to-date manner, tno
diamond "skinned" and many other
mrovements made.
Fred Honor will be manager again
this year and he has nlrendy hooked
several good games that will bo pulirni
off earlv in the season.
Med ford's lineup against Jackson

SCORES STUNG HARD
ON OREGON TIMBER
SKATTIjK, Wash.. March lit. .Lured
by promises made by laud locators op
erating in Seattle. Tacoma and Helling
ham, scores of innocent aud ignorant
men have been induced to part with
considerable sums of money in the be
lie ft hat they would be able to obtain
prior rights as homesteaders and tim
her land claimants in filing entries on
land in Oregon involved in the suit
brought by the Vnited States depart
ment of just ico against the Southern
Pacific.
The charge made by the locators is
.$t'0i, of which $150 is paid down and
the homesteaders nre told that they
will obtain first righ.'s should the land
revert to the government. This is tho
land involved in the sensational attack
of President Roosevelt on Senator Till
man a few weeks ago.
Tho local United States land office
receives inquiries every day regarding
Ihese lands, the inquirers believing that
the land is government land and sub
ject to entry.
TAFT SEEKING WHITES
TO REPLACE NEGROES
WASHINGTON, March 1ft. As soon
as he can find suitable white men Pres
ident Tn ft is going to appoint them to
offices in Georgia now filled by ne
groes. Colonel J. H. Peveuux. said to
be the only real colonel of color in the
country, now collector at Savannah,
whose term of office expired some time
ego, and Ferdinand M. Mann, postmas
ter at Pnrien. the center of Georgia's
black belt, are the men who are not
to be continued in office,
Representative Edwards, in whose
district thoy are holding office, called
at the White House today to impress
upon the president the fact that south
ern men hnvc accepted his utterances
with regard to negroes ami office-holding,
and to say that the negroes in
question arc not men desired by the
communities in which they hold office.
According to the representative, the
president told him it was hardly neces
sary for any southern man who. like
himBelf, had heard the innugural ad
diess to cull his attention to his own
words. To that he ndded that he had
no idea of continuing Colonel Deveaux
in office.
