Mrs. Leander Lane, wife of the minis
ter of the Christian Church, of No. 2010
I street. South Omaha, Neb., tells how
her (laughter has been enabled to resume
her professional work as a teacher after
suffering for nearly three years from se
vere nervous prostratiou :
•• When she was passing from girl
hood to womanhiMMl," says Mrs. Lane,
•• she suffered greatly from difficulties
peculiar to her sex. The physician did
not help her, but a few boxes of Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills brought about the
perfect regulation of her system.
, •• While she had escaped from one
grave trouble, she unfortunately began
to overwork, first as a student and then
as a teacher in a large Iowa institution
for orphan boys. She enjoyed her work
and was very enthusiastic, but the strain
finally told on her. She became pale,
weak, nervous, unable to sleep; she had
no appetite and she suffered from se
vere headaches. Then came a complete
breakdown ami her work had to be given
up.
•• In this emergency we again tried Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills.
Improvement
came at first slowly aud we sometimes
doubted whether she was gaining, but
we noticed that whenever she stopped
taking the pills she fell buck, ami when
ever she resumed the use of them she
revived and so we kept up the treatment
until she recovered her usual health and
was able to take a position in one of our
universities where she is happily at
work. My mother, my daughter and
myself have a well-founded confidence
in the merits of Dr. Williams* Pink Pills
and are always ready to recommend
them.”
This is simply one more proof that
these pills seek disease at its source
aud effect fundamental cures. They
cure various diseases because these have
a common origin in impaired bioodor
nerves. They put the entire system in a
healthy condition, because they intro
duce vigor that is distributed to every
part. They arrest physical decay when
it seems inevitable and fiml a road to
restoration when the' doctor misses it.
They are sold by all druggists through-
rat the world.

Scoter Reames.
Miss Birdie McCarty has traded her
reputation for 110,000 of James D
Heryford’s money. After 15 minute’.»
deliberation Friday afternoon the
jury which bad for three days listened
to the famous breach of promise case
in Judge Bellinger’s court at Portland
brought in a verdict for 110,000 in fa
vor of the Wisconsin schoolma'am
who sued the wealthy Lakeview cat
tleman for 170,000damages. Miss Mc
Carty certainly earned the money.
Through two long trials she has «a*
and beard herself called all the names
that may be cast at an unscrupulous
or wanton woman. Twice she sat in
the witness chair and confessed to tb«
voluntary surrender of her virtue,
while the mao denied that she had
ever fallen from the straight and nar
row path.
This was the second trial of the
ease, the fir»u which resulted in a ver
dict of $22 000, having b<en set aside
by Judge Bt Linger on the gr> und that
the amount awarded wa* excessive.
Under the inst uctions given by
the court to the jury about the only
question to be decided by the jury was
toe amount of damages, and the ver-
det will not te set aside.

Medford vs. Ashland.
In Sunday's game at Ashland Carmel
Martin, the wel'-known pitcher, made
his first appearance in Southern Ore
gon this season. He did good work in
the box, striking out 13 men. Rims-
<jale was quite effective up to the 5tb
inning, when the Medford Grey* had
four tallies to their opponent’s none
He struck out 8 men. After that
Ashland bad them at their mercy.
It was quite^n interesting game
and was witnessed by a big crowd.
Its principal features were the home
runs of Northrop and Thoma-, the
Greys'left fielder and first baseman.
The summary of game is:

Spring Medicine
There is no other season when good
medicine is so much needed as in the
Spring.
The blood is impure, weak and
impoverished—a condition indicated
by pimples and other eruptions on the
face aud body, by deficient vitality,
loss of appetite, lack of strength, and
want of animation.
Hood’s Sarsaparilla
and Pills
Make the blood pure, vigorous and
rich, create appetite, give vitality,
strength and animation, and cure
all eruptions. Ilave the whole family
br^ln to take them today.
-Hood’s Sarsaparilla has been used in
our family for some time, and always with
good results. Last spring I was all run
down and got a bottle of it, and as usual
received great benefit.’’ Miss B zulab
Boves, Stowe, Vt.
Mood’s Sarsaparilla promises to
euro and keeps the promise.

Base Ball Notes.
B Probably the best ball game of the
season was played In Medford Thurs
day, on the grounds of the Athletic As
sociation, between the home team and
the Ashland nine. It was full of excel
lent plays, some of which were even
brilliant, while errors were conspicu
ous by their absence. Medford won
by a score of 4 to 2, certainly a very
good one. Hutton andNorthrop were
the winner's battery, while Jack Clove
land and Charley Jacobs represented
the vlsltorsin a like capacity. We re
gret thauour limited space precludes a
more extended account of the game.
Barkdull umpired the game and gave
general satisfaction.
Jacksonville and Gold Hill played a
very ragged game on what is called
the Nugget’s grounds—mining claim
would probably be nearer it. The
Gold Bricks were bogus this time
and played like escapes from a
kindergarten, while their opponeutB
did very lltl'e better. The score stood
12 to 11 in favor of Gold Hill The
batteries were Brous and Moore
I for Gold Hill and Lester and Cruger
for Jacksonville. Both teams were
short some of their beet players which
will in some measure account for the
poor game put up.
BRIEF MENTION.
Carmel Martin has returned to Ore
gon from Salinas,Calif., and is pitching
winning ball for Ashland.
The graduating exercises of the
Central Point school will be held this
week. Prof. W. T Van Scoy of the
S. O. S. N. S. delivered the baccalaure
ate sermon Sunday.
The box social in Morton school dis
trict,held last Friday evening, was a suc
cess in every way, the sum of 122 90 be
ing realized. Miss Pheister, an excel
lent teacher, has been in charge of the
school during the past few months.
A large sum of money was staked :n
Medford on the result of the election.
Most of it was bet on the result cf the !
contest for county clerk. The friends
of Mr. Davis were confident of his elec- i
tlon until Tuesday morning and backed
him liberally.
It looks very much as if Jackson
county had given a considerable ma
jority for the local option proposition.
Evidently many did not vote under-
standingly on it,as communities known
to be pronounced against it cast ma
jorities therefor.
The remains of the late Edward A.
Swope, who died In San Diego, Cal.,
May 31, will be buried in the Ashland
cemetery Sunday, June 12th. The
funeral will be under the auspices of
Ashland Lodge No. 23, A. F. & A. M.,
at 2 o’clock p. m.
The Portland Browns, of the Pacific
Coast League, which is now playing
winning ball in California will be here
next Tuesday, for a game with the
Med’ord Grays. This promises to be
the principal event of the ball season
and will draw a big crowd.
The Palm—Whitman Cigar Co., as a
Medford institution, is no more. It
moved its headquarters to Portland
ouring the past week, which will here
after be located at Sellwood, a suburb
of that city. This is a serious blow to
our city, but it seems that it could not
be averted. The company has our best
wishes.
The people of our city are cordially
invited to attend commencement ex
ercises of the Southern Oregon Normal
School. The Cantata "The Gypsey
Queen,” Tuesday evening, June 14th.
will be especially fine. Governor Cham
berlain and Supt. Ackerman will ad
dress the class and the public at 2:30 p.
m., Wednesday June 15th.
The question of allowing hogs to tud
at large In Jackson county seems to
have been decided in the affirmative
by a large vote, notwithstanding the
fact that quite a number of votes were
cast No against the intention of the
voter. The festive po ker will there
fore still be allowed to roam about at
his own sweet will.

The Valley Record says that E. K.
Anderson has purchased F. M. Drake's
handsome residence property in Ash
land; consideration $4000. Mr. and
Mrs. Anderson and their daughter,
Miss Belle Anderson, will move to Ash
land next fall and mske their home in
the new residence. Mr. Anderson has
led an extraordinarily active and use
ful life and is preparing to ease up and
give himself the comforts of a lees
strenuous existence.
S. C. Swaggerty and his son hav
taken the contract to do logging for
the Jackson County Lumbering Com
pany, who are operating on the Blech
er place, located three miles south of
Jacksonville. They are experienced
loggers and the company is fortunate
in securing their services. Mrs Hamil
ton, daughter of Mr. Swaggerty, went
with them to take charge of the mess
house.
Medford and Gold Hill will play on
the grounds of the Medford Athletic
Association Thursday and Sunday-
next. The games are certain to be in
teresting, as both teams have been
considerably strengthened? The pub
lic should patronize the week-day
games more than they do, as the league
is at considerable expense and cannot
be made a success without a liberal
patronage.
Gen. Joubart, one of the heroes of
the Boer war, delivered an illustrated
lecture on that notable event in the
world’s history at Wilson’s Opera
House under the auspices ot the
Baptist church on Monday evening. It
was quite Interesting and pleased the
large audience very much. Gen. Jou
bart is a large,fine appearing man, who
looks every inch a soldier and gentle
man. He is rapidly assimilating the
ways of this country, and promises to
be as good on the platform as on the
battlefield.
J. W. Hamaker was over from Klam
ath Falls, accompanied by Wm.
Hicks, who Is generally known across
the mountains as "Old Bill" Hicks.
The latter is a veteran of the Indian
wars and Mr. Hamaker was taking
him to Jacksonville, that the old man's
identity might be established in order
that a pension can be applied for. Mr.
Hicks has lived for the most part of a
long life among the Indians, and the
matter of establishing his antecedents
is somewhat difficult.
O. O. Helman has returned from Sac
ramento, where he has been participat
ing in a two-days’ tournament of the
Northern California Rod and Gun club.
The tournament consisted of 16 events
an I there were about 75 marksmen
present in competition for the various
prizes. Mr. Helman was very success
ful, and in a 20-bl rd shoot won the in
dividual championship medal of North,
era California. In addition to this be
captured the highest general aver
age medal, and pulled down about $100
in prize money, says the Tidings.
As is sometimes the case immediate
ly preceding state and national elec
tions, and this being a year in which
both occur in Oregon, business be
comes a little dull. There is no dis
guising this fact. But, on the other
band, there is no anxiety as to the
NO. 23
outcome. Added to this the spring

excellent one.
The pupils of St. Mary's Academy
will give an entertainment at U. 8.
Hall Monday evening, June 13th. As
a splendid program has been prepared
therefor it will doub'less be a very in
teresting event and receive tbe liberal
patronage it deserves.
The latest returns indicate the re
election of District Attorney Reames
by a majority ranging between 50 and
75. Gold Hill and Mound, both Demo
cratic precincts, did the mischief, New
bury getting a majority in each. Per
sonal matters, instead of official dese
lection, was the cause of this defection.
Miss Josephine Donegan has re
turned from Applegate, where she has

school. Her pupils gave an excelleot
entertainment Thursday afternoon. A
box social given in the evening at
Rose’s Hall was followed by a dancing
party,both of which were pleasant af
fairs. The proceeds thereof will go
toward buying uniforms for the Apple
gate base-ball club.
The >feat of Judge Prim is re-
grv'
by all who appreciate efficien
cy i. < ffice and solicitude for the pub
lic w Bare. He made a splendid coun
ty ju ge, displaying excellent executive
ability, being attentive to his duties
and practicing rigid economy in every
thing. We fear that a grave mistake
has been made. If anyone ever de
served re election it was Judge Prim.
It seems very strange that it was de
nied him.

wbo attended,it. Tbe numbers, most
of which were of » di ssical character,
calling lor talent of a high or

general satisfaction. A well-executed
display of needlework and penmanship

ceived much praise.

The election held throughout Oregon
Monday resulted in a sweeping Re
publican victory. Tbe majority thrown
for that party, said to be nearly 20,000,
is the largest ever given in this state.
There was a great effort to make It
such, and it succeeded. Moore for Su

whelming majorties. The same may
be said of Binger Hermann and J. N.
Williamson, candidates for Congress in
the First and Second districts.

Tbe flDal d-m nstration in behalf

was a fine one and well handled.
