iSOIJTHEftx OREGON COPPER.
Jacknon Connty Mine Bonded for
ASHIiAND. Or., Nov. 10. (Special.) The
copper prospects near the' state line, in
the vicinity of Elliott Creek and Joe
Creek, are still attracting, .unusual at
tention and experts are Inspecting the lo
cality most industriously. George Neuber
and George Walt recently acquired what
have proven to be very valuable claims In

Jjustly celebrated McVey claims, which
were located by Crercent City parties.
Neuber and "Wail have Just bonded-their
claims to Montana people for the sum of
$20,000. N .
The rainfall has been too light as yef to
start w6rk actively at the placer mines
of this section; and the miners are get
ting' Jjhings In readiness for operations as
soon as the waters In the gulches and
ditches flow freely. At the ' celebrated
Sterling mine, owned by Ankeny & Cook,
the most important mine of its class .In
Jackson County, the Fall work is now
under way. "While the water In the ditches
is still light, there is plenty to drive one
giant and it is tearing away at the gravel
in a vigorous fashion. A few good rains
will put the entire equipment of the Ster
ling mine In active operation.
Increased energy In the work has lately
been .manifest In the Wolf Creek district-
Ditches are being enlarged, new
flumes built and all the other necessary
preparation made for the. starting of . the
hydraulics as soon as the waters are
plentiful. Messrs. Scrlber ami Henderson,
who have a very promising claim In this
district, Tecently put In a hew arastra
that will break from 12 to 18 tons of rock
per day. The rock is In the nature of
decomposed porphyry and quartz and is
very rich, It Is quite usual to take out
from ?S to ?20 a pan from this dirt.
The Wolf Creek Mining & Development
Company has a large force at work on
Its quartz and placer properties. Besides
jour claims this corporation has ISO acres
of valuable placer ground and splendid
water rights on Wolf Creek. Much im
provement and development work is be
ing prdsecuted on these claims; new
ditches are being dug and flumes built,
while three ledges are being faced oft
preparatory to tht driving of a main
working tunnel.
D. J. S. Pearce recently picked up a
nugget on his placer claim on Poorman's
Creek that weighed over $3S. There Is
much coarse gold on this claim, on which
the old channel has been located during
the past Summer. The Bachelor Mine on
Sardine Creek has recently been sold to
M. Ketchum. Pipe and giants have been
taken to the property and piping will be
started as soon as the water flows. Dur
ing the past week T. M. Rekl reports an
excellent clean-up at the Oregon Belle
Mine on Forest Creek. Two shifts of min
ers are hard at work on the White Horse
a tunnel, which has already been driven
400 feet. J. H. Berman has sold his Lucky
Bart m'nc on Sardine Creek to a Cali

tet of Ashland hunters, consisting of Dr.
R. T. Burnett. E. V. Carter. W. G.
Kropke and John Churchman, who start
ed for a duck shoot at the Big Springs,

ing and perilous adventure that nearly
cost them their lives. At Gazelle, a sta
tion on the Southern Pacific Company's
Railroad, they engaged a driver to take
them to Big Springs. The route selected
took them across a .ford to the Shasta
River, over which the waters of the
stream usually run very shallow.
The recent phenomenal rains had great
ly swollen the waters of the always swift
running stream, and In going across the
driver mistook the location of the ford,
and the horses plunged Into the river,
where the water was over 10 feet deep.
The wagon and Its occupants were quick
ly overturned, ana tne five men were
compelled, to swim hard to save their
lives. "Luckily all were good swimmers.
Kropke made the bank, while the others
landed on an island in the middle of the
river, njitric uic i i:mu.iutru lur several
hours until help could reach them. The
horses and the wagon were carried over
& mile down the stream where thoj were
rescued by some neighboring ranchers.
Anthe guns, ammunition and camp im
pedimenta were 'iost. The hunters re
turned here last evening and are being
congratulated on their very narrow es
cape from death.

In answer to this question, this, depart
ment has ruled that as soon as tne parent

with the Intention of making said school
district his bona fide residence, he be
comes a resident of such district at once;
-and, hence, a child of such parent or
guardian is entitled to free tuition from

"In case of doubt. It would be entirely
proper for the district board to require
the parent or guardian to file an affidavit
with the board setting forth his real In
tention as to residence. The Intention of
the parent or guardian is the controlling
factor In determining his residence."

.WHITMAN DEBATERS AT WORK.
Preparing for Clinmpionsliip Meet
With University of Oregon.
WHITMAN COLLEGE, Walla Walla,
Nov. 10. (Special.) The prospect of a de
bate with the University of 'Oregon In
January has greatly stimulated. Interest In
debating at Whitman.- Arrangements
have been made wllh the university, and
Oregon will probably send a team to
Walla Walla some time between January
10 and 25. , Whitman holds the champion
ship of the Inland Empire In debating,
and the University of Oregon for the
country across the mountains. These
facts make the prospects for a) fine contest
excellent.
Already the Athenaeum and Phrenakos
mian Literary Societies, which are the
center of the literary life of the college,
have begun preparations for the selection
of a team to meet the' Oregonlans.- This
will be done by a system of try-outs,
first within the two societies and later
by a great debate between the two so
cieties. This debate will come off some
time early In December.
Whitman Is In good shape in the debat
ing line this year, having five of her old
Intercollegiate debaters back. "Hez"
Brown, the star debater of the school,
and probably one of the best college de
baters west of the Mississippi, has been a
Whitman Intercollegiate debater for four
years; Palmer was on the Moscow team
' year before last, -while Chittenden, Guy,
Galloway and Baldwin were among last
year's debaters. George Marquis, who led
the Pullman team last year, and W. W.
Johnston, of the Moscow team, did not re
turn to school this year. There Is much
promise In the new material -which Whit
man has; also Bralnard, Campbell, Ringer
and Cox are all debaters of experience.
A new feature thls year Is the appoint
ment by the executive committee f the
Associated Students of .a business manager
for debates and oratory. Robert L. Ring
er, Avho so successfully managed the Idaho
debate last year, was appointed about a
month ago. Besides the debate with Ore
gon, Whitman will debate with the Wash
ington Agricultural College and the Uni
versity of Idaho In the Spring; also Whit
man Academy will probably have a return
debate with the Blair Business College, of
Spokane, at Walla AValla later In the

Now and again there is an item in the
newspapers concerning the birth of a
puny baby so small that a quart enp
holds it comfortably. If the article told
all the facts it woiild probably tell also
of a mother who in weakness and misery
had looked forward to the baby's advent
with shrinking and fear.
To nave fine, healthy children the
mother must be healthy, and it is the
common testimony
of mothers that the
use of Dr. Pierce's
Favorite Prescrip
tion not only pro
motes the mother's
health but also gives
her strength to give
her child.
