If you have any disease which does not
yield readily to medical treatment, dont fail
to get the Treatise on Compound Oxygen,
that wonderful revitalizing agent and health
restorer, and study it carefully. It is sent
free by Drs. Starket & Palen, 1109 and
1111 Girard street, Philadelphia, Penn. All
orders for the Compound Oxygen Home
Treatment directed to H. E. Mathews,
606 Montgomery street, San Francisco,
will be tilled on the same terms as if sent di
rcctlyto us.
Drainage. The fact that Roseburg
remains healthy during this heated and
smoky term is no compliment to her
industry and enterprise in the matter
of sewerage, but simply goes to shew
that the healthy conditions tf our sec
tion have been at least a match, for
the exhalations arising from stinking
back yards and gutters. While we can
shut our eyes in certain localities and
know exactly where we are by the out
raged sense of smell, and still live, it
might occur to ne rcrsed in saaitary
laws hat such things cannot last for
ever, but the time will come under ex.
jlsting regulations when we may smell
and die.
Bottled Water. It is sometimes
said that our water works on the hill
will be insufficient in case of fire.
While we think that the persons who
make such remarks will find on occa
sion that our watar works and fire lad
dies :; will be equal to any emergency
which may arise, we know that it is an
aggravation to the thirsty (for water)
citizen to pass the quiet hydrants and
know that a refreshing stream is strug
gling to escape only a few feet away.
If it were possible it would be a bless
ing to the town to leave the gate open
a little bit and put spring water within
the reach of so many deserving citizens.
Coxtests. In the timber-land con
test of .Whitsett ys Roberts the Reg
ister and Receivor have decided that the
land! is fit for cultivation and conse-
i
auntlv bel oners to Whitsett la the
timber land contest of Tipton va
Hughes, appealed to Commissioner,
it has been decided by the Com
missioner that the land is fit for cul
tivation and none of it can be taken
as timber land. It is now understood
that j there is a very bmall quantity of
timber land in Oregon, for if land is
fit for cultivation it makes no difference
it it
over
should happen to be covered all
with timber. It must be ab
solutely unfit for cultivation or it is
useless to attempt to get it under the
timber-land act

Celebration at Mt Scott.
Tke ever "Memorable) Fourth was
celebrated in becoming style by th
patriotic citizens f this precinct
Th glerious day was ushered in by
firing of anvils, and at an early hour
a goodly number of people were gath
ered together in one of the most beau
tiful places, a natural temple, by the
banks of the beautiful North TJmpqua.
At the appointed hour the president
of the day, Mrf J. Xlornton called
to order. An earnest prayer was de
livered by the chaplain A choir con
sisting of young ladies and gentlemen
of Mount Scott v-ith Miss Flora Wat
son as organist furnished good music.
The Deelaratien of Jndepenance was
read in clear distinct tones by Miss
Sarah Wimberly.
Prof. H. L. Benson was then intro
duced, who delivered an excellent ora
tion, which was full of thought and
highly commended. A bountiful din
ner was spread upon a table and all in
vited to partake, and right here let me
say that for good cooks and pretty
girls Mt. Scott can't be beaten.
In the afternoon various amuse
ments were indulged in, some playing
base ball, others more gallantly in
clined were boat riding, swinging eta

There were two candy stands ana a

Dreadful Accident
New Westminster (B. C.) Guardian.
On Saturday last, the young girls,
pupils of St Ann's school, went out,
accompanied by - several of the good
sisters of St Ann, on a picnic party to
the farm of Mr. George Black, in the
vicinity of the Coquitlam river. The
day was beautiful, and the children en
joyed themselves with all the gladsome
mirth of childhood. Miss. Black en
tered into their juvenile- amusements
with the happy sportiveness of early
womanhood, and accompamed a num
bsr of them to the margin of the river.
It would appear that they were jer
mitted to bathe their feet, but did not
undress. The water just now, bowev
er, is very high and swift; Miss Ward,
one of the young ladies, had ventured
too far, and sank in deep water; Miss
Black, in attempting to save Miss
Ward, went down, and never emerged
alive. The alarm havig been given,
Mr. Joseph Wise, who happened to be
within hearing, plunged iato the river
and rescued Mua Ward, but was com
pelled to seek assistance to recover the
body of Miss Black, who was unhap- ;
pily beyond the reach of human efforts.
The distress of every one present is
beyond description; the remains were
immediately brought toa this city and
kindly cared for by the Sisters, who
did everything possible to lighten the
terrible blow. Information was at
once dispatched to the bereaved par
ents, who were quickly beside the bier
of their beloved child. She was, in
deed, a beautiful creature,
"Fair, fair, with golden hair,"
just blooming into womanhood, and en
deared to everyone by her frank, happy
disijositibn, as much as by her sweet
face and graceful person. The scene
in the Convent pailor, where the body
was laid in a shroud, was very sad
the child's father and mother, the Sis
ters, and the school children, standing
round in the awful presence of death
it was pitiful. Mr. Black bore his sor
row like a Christian gentleman, and
tried to console the Sisters. The grief
of her parents is too sacred for discus
sion here. We need hardly say that
no blame is attached to any one; it was
one of those accidents entirely beyond
human foresight or ordinary precau
tions. The funeral took place on Mon
day last from the convent, the proces-
sian attending to Holy Trinity Church,
where the burial service was impres
sively read by the Rev. Mr. Sheldon,
assisted by Rev. Mr. Ditcham. The
procession then proceeded to the Ma
sonic cemetery, where the remains were
interred. Tbe grief of all present
would have impressed a stranger with
the belief that they were all relatives.
The parents, who are greatly respected,
have the sympany of all.

Citizens of Roseburg!
For the benefit of those suffering
with catarrh I will state that I have
been afflicted with that disease for the

remedies without any benefit, was
finally induced to try the Eldorado
Mineral Water, from the spring of
Geo. W. Jones, which I will sUite has
effected a cure, and I have no hesita
tion in recommending it to those suf
fering with a like complaint.
