FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 1886.
Rev. E. A. McAllister came up from Eugene

Let us hear who can beat this.
Serenade, The Junior Band tendered

which ware gladly received by all.
For the CAk Snors. Already near
$6000 have been subscribed toward securing

He's Com i Mr;! B. F, Parsons, the sewing
machine repairer and adjuster is coming, and
will be at Roscbifrg on or about Sep 25th, t.
1886, and remain some days, to repair all
kinds of sewing machines at low, reasonable
rates. All work warranted and guaranteed.
Orders, left at the I'ostofiice promptly at
tended to.
New Mi.sEs. The mines lately discovered
near Glcndale In the Southern part of Doug
las county are exceedingly rich, so says pretty
well confirmed reports. One man said that
the cave where the mine was, "was literally
festooned with gold."' No doubt that our min
eral resources arc just begining to develop.
This may be trie Ophir of the ancients.
Reduced Freight Rates on the Wii.i -amei
I e.- -The O. R. & N. Co. have an
nounced that pears and plums in any quan
tity from any point on the Willamette river
to Portland will hereafter be billed as class C,
which is the rate that wheat takes, the lowest
on the schedule. On and after the 25th inst.,
the rate on hops from all points on the river
to Portland will be $3 per ton, weight.
Formerly hops were billed as first-class, and
the rate Irom Corvallis was $6, Albany $5.40,
Salem $5. In the face of good prices East,
this reduction will be to the farmer "another
ray of sunshine."
Adventure With a Panther, Miss
Charlotte Nicholls and a young brother were
passing throughlsomc thick timber near Marsh
field the other day, when an enormous panther
made a spring at them from a tree. Miss
Nicholl was mounted, but the animal miscal
culated the distance and alighted on the back
of the horse. The horse reared and threw
the young lady violently to the ground, bruis
ing her badly about the face and otherwise
injuring her. The young people then walked
to Marshfield. Next morning the horse was
found near the scene of the adventure . There
were several deep gashes in his body made by
the panther . News.
ARcn-Blsiior Gross. Last Sunday morn
ing, Bishop Gross assisted by Father Hein
rich of this city at the Catholic church, con
firmed five girls and four boys with the im
pressive ceremonies of the Catholic church.
The Arch-Bishop also preached a very pointed
and eloquent sermon upon the rich man and
Lazarus. In the evening at the court house
to a laq;e audience enwapt with the closest at
tention the Bishop gave the views held by the
( atholic church! in reference to the Virgin
Mary, which were explained in a rather new
y('t satisfactory manner. The Bishop's man
ner of speech is at limes really lofty and bis
diction is exquisite in some of his rounding
periods. He is truly au eloquent man, full of
animation, and his pulpit wit is refined, and
of the highest order, and goes to the spot.
This distinguished gentleman is from Mary
land, a land of orators. His interview with
us was highly appreciated. He discharged
his duties with acceptability, and seemed fully
to recognize that honos habet onus.
The Roseburg ''Baby" Band.
Among the few things deserving special
mention at our late ? at Halls Brairie, was
the manner in which the Junior Band of Rose
burg acquitted themselves. The little fellows
play excellently and handle a superior grade
of music surprisingly well. They came upon
the grounds the first day, and did the most of
the playing during the four days. On
Wednesday evening they visited Coquille City
and were quartered at the Robinson House as
guests of the Herald. During the
evening they played several of their favor
ite selections to an admiring audience. The
little ones made a host of fnends during their
short stay, by their dignified manners, and
polite and manly deportment.
It is the verdict of quite a number of our
musicians that if the society had offered a
prize to be competed for, by the bands of the
district, that the "Babies" would have car
ried the palm with them to Roscburg. Co

We notice in the Jacksonville Times a local
in regard to the advance in freight on lumber
from Glendale both North and South. Now
the consumer at Roseburg must pay this
advance, or the mills will stop all along the
line. For the benefit of the public we think
that the freight ought to be put back to the
old prices, and therefore ask that the mana
gers of the railroad look into the matter.

KNIGHTS TEMPLAR.
St Louis Thronged by Thousands of Vit
iters-
THE CONCLAVE A BIG SUOOESS-
-A Brilliant Scene at Sight.
St. Louis, Sept. 20. It was after mid
night when the last special train discharged its
load of visitors to the triennial conclave last
night, and day had not broken this morning
when the procession of arriving commanderies
was renewed. At an early hour bands were
playing and commanderies were marching,
and the history of the forenoon has been a
repetition of the night on a much more exten
sive scale. At the Union depot the tracks are
crowded with extra trains, and no sooner is
one emptied than another takes its place
Along the wharves on the river front a similar
scene of activity is witnessed, many comman
deries from along the river having chartered
steamers, which will be used as combined ho
tels and headquarters during the week.
The weather seems as if it were especially
designed for the occasion, and in consequence
the streets are thronged with sight-seers,
while everywhere may be seen marching com
manderies making fraternal calls on local and
visiting headquarters
The work of decorating the buildings for trie
occasion was only fairly begun this morning,
and thousands ot workmen are engaged in the
task. Preparations for illumination, which
begins to night arc complete, and the aparatus
has been tested and found in perfect working
order, assuring a display far in advance of any
thing ever previously attempted in this city.
Other arrangements for the work of the en
campment are perfected, and nothing remains
but to receive the Knights and get them es
tablished in their temporary quarters. In this
latter respect the committee is entitled to
great praise for the excellent manner in which
arrangements have been made for housing
and feeding the multitude.
A WONDERFUL SCENE.
The crowds on the street, at the various
headquarters and the Union depot this morn
ing were but insignificant when brought into
comparison with those of the afternoon. At
the depot not a quarter of an hour elapsed
without the arrival of delegations of Knights.
This evening the throng is so great that move
ment was difficult, and marching by comman
deries was next to impossible . Scores of bands
were playing in various parts of the city, and
frequently squads of Knights and their ladies
regaled the crowd with popular ballads. The
hotels presented a picture or wonderful activity
and while all who applied were furnished
with some sort of sleeping accommodations,
the crowding was something remarkable.
To-nignt the streets were brilliantly illumi
nated for the first time, the work of prepara
tion having been brought to practical comple
tion before sundown. Ei ght miles of streets
were brilliantly lighted with ten and hundreds
of thousands of gas jets, enclosed in many-colored
globes, while from the fronts of prom
inent public and private buildings blazed forth
electric lights and gas in symbolic designs ap
propriate to thfc occasion. There were no
set parties, but small bodies of knights, ac
companied by bands of music, were moving
in all directions, and the streets were thronged
with spectators.
THE SITUATION AT CHARLESTON.
Charleston, Sept, 19. This has been a
.different day from last Sunday, by reason of
the completion of the work of reopening
thoroughfares, which a week ago was in full
blast. Communications arc now pretty wel'
restored; telegraph lines are in operation, and
the teli phone exchange is working nearly
everywhere. The worst feature of the day
was a heavy rain this morning, which injured
considerably the contents of exposed dwellings,
and made the remaining campers-out particu
larly uncomfortable; but the discomfort and
loss were nothing in comparison with what
would have been the effect of a down pour ten
days ago. The feature of the day, as last
Sunday, was open air worship. The Roman
Catholic Church had service on one of the
ships in the harbor; the Presbyterian and
Huguenot church services were on the battery;
the congregation of Grace church worshiped
in a Sunday school building, and the Second
Presbyterian congregation in the residence of
Mr. J. S. Riggs.

"Tlte World's Wonder:''
K. F. Walsh, of this city, has secured the
agency for the most useful book ever issued
from the press, entitled "The World's Won
ders," as seen by the great tropical and polar
explorers; being an encyclopedia of explora
tion, discovery and adventure in all parts of
the world, and a history of savage races of
men, curious and ferocious animals, strange
and deadly serpents and reptiles, etc., etc.,
embracing every important discovery and ad
venture in the exploration of such distinguish
ed travelers as Speke and Grant, Sir Samuel
Barker and wife, Livingston, Stanley, Dr.
Chaillu, Wallace, Long, Squire, Gordon, and
including all of the explorers of the Polar
world. The boo'c contains 768 pages and is
beautifully embellished with over 200 illustra
tions.
Do Ton Hunt a Market for fruit?
If so, build a granger, fruit drier, patented
by Burnett & 1 1 ill. Owing to its cheapness
and capacity it takes the lead. It has been
tested by the side of other driers and has
rendered the best satisfaction. Our terms
for farm rights are according to capacity.
For 25 bushels $10, IOO bushels $50, 200
bushels $100, If you wish to inquire into the
merits of said drier consult John Hall, John
W. Weaver or H. A. Adams all of Myrtle
Creek, Oregon. We can save your fruit.
$200 will save as much fruit for you as $1000
can ol some other driers. This is the greatest
prune drier known to this country.
Address Burnett & Hill,
Myrtle Creek, Oregon.
A Gentle Stimulus.
Is imparted to the kidneys and bladder by
Hostetter's Stomach Bittters, which is most
useful in overcoming torpidity of these organs.
Besides infusing more activity into them, this
excellent tonic endows them with additional
vigor, and enables them the belter to undergo
the wear and tear of the discharging function
imposed upon them by nature. Moreover, as
they are the channel for the escape of certain
impurities from the blood, increase their use
fulness by strengthening and healthfully stim
ulating them. In certain morbid conditions of
these important organs, they fall into a slug
gish state, which is the usual percursor of
disease What then can be of greater service
than a medicine which impels them to greater
activity when slothful? No maladies are more
perilous than those which affect the kidneys,
and a medicine which averts the peril should
be highly esteemed.

Dr. Burchard. The Rev. Dr. Burchard,
the political hero of the last campaign, visited
the New Jersey lunatic asylum the other day
and was introduced to a mild mannered pa
tient whom the doctor recognized as the son
of a former parishioner. After exchanging
greetings the doctor asked, "Well, what
brings you here?" Rum, Romanism and Re
bellion," solemnly replied the lunatic, with a
sly wink at the warden. The Rev. Dr. Bur
chard remarked, "Ah!" and passed ou to
visit lunatics with less method in their mad
ness. Weekly World.
SATE THE CHILD REX.
Detrimental food which, by reason of their
superior strength, may not seriously affect the
health ol adults as is well known, frequently
acts upon the more delicate organs of the
child to produce this disorders of the most se
rious character. The amount of laudanum or
other poison that would be harmless to an
adult will cause the death of an infant. This
great difference between the vitality of adults
and children is too generally overlooked in the
preparation of food. Because no harm im
mediately perceptible comes to the adult by
the use of an article of food, no thought is
given to the effect it may have upon the more
delicate organs of inferior age.
Children diet largely upon cake and bread,
and these articles, if lignt, sweet and com
posed of materials that are free from injurious
substances, are easily digested, nutritous and
wholesome. There is a danger to cur
children, however, lurking in their bread and
cake which is to often lost sight of. These
articles are now leavened largely by baking
powders, and when pure and wholesome bak
ing powders are used they make not only the
most palatable food, but one much more
wholesome and nutritive than if leavened with
yeast or cream of tartar and soda. The
trouble arises from the fact as shown by recent
scientific tests by the - Government chemists
and by official boards of health, that all these
baking powders, with the single exception of
the Royal, contain either lime, alum, phos
phates, or acids of an injurious character
Therefore when bread or cake is made with
the use of these cheap baking powders these
ingredients (which are present through the
efforts of the manufacturers to produce a
cheaper article) pass into the food and are
taken into the delicate organs of childhood
where they are the source of very much of the
disease with which our children are afflicted.
Persons who have not strong constitutions,
growing girls, young children and nursing
mothers are particularly liable to the evil
effects produced by the introduction of the
adulterants named as found in the cheap bak
ing powders. 1 leartburn and the prevalent
forms of indegestion are often solely traceable
to the action of alum on the delicate coats of
the stomach. Prof. Willard Parker, U. S.
Surgeon-General Hammond, Prof. Alonzo
Clarke, most eminent physicians of New York,
with scores of others, have written and spoken
most earnestly of the evills arising from the
partaking of such food. There should be as
much care in the choice of a baking powder
as in obtaining pure milk or in having a pre
scription compounded from pure drugs and
not from poisons. The matter is one of the
greatest importance, particularly to the rising
generation, and while our conservative law
makers are making up their minds as to the
proper legislation fo stop the sale of the
poisonous compounds, mothers will do well to
study it carefully. The housekeeper will ex
perience no inconvenience in discarding the
use of the adulterated baking powder, if she
has been using it, as to the Royal Baking
Powder upon the purity and wholesomeness of
which all the Government chemists agree, is
equally accessible; but she will need to exer
cise a close watch upon her packages from
the grocer in order to prevent the inferior
brands from creeping into her kitchen un
awares .
In what we have felt it our duty to say in
reference to the subject of baking powder
there is no intention to disparage the work or
the products of those many manufacturers in
other lines of food products who, with con
scientiousness and liberality, are serving the
public with pure and wholesome articles of
diet.

TUE DEATH OF CHEATHAM.
Gen. Chea ham, brave and blunt, had a heart as
tender as a woman's A member of his corps.
A passing vehicle on the street made a rumbling
sound; his eye opened asd he raised his head
"There go the troops, he said; "bring me my horse
I am going to the front." His head fell and the
veteran had gone to the front. Avtlanche Nash
ville special Sept 5.
"Look! Where go my brave battallions, ragged,
few, but undismayed.
Marching careless into battle as on holiday parade,
Bring my htfrse! My boys' without me ne'er shall
bear the battle's brunt

iroing to the front!
"gee! Where! 80; bave I been dreaming; Uggrd
by the wayside here;
Sunk beneath the ceaseless watching and a soldier's

Listen! 'Where's old Frank?, they're asking; bless
the rascals! Come; lets go;
As I sat here I was dreaming of the fields of Mexico.
"Droamed I saw Old Rough and Ready -time the

His eyes grew dim, and through the mists of
memory and tears,
He saw the dear hands beckouin:: he has claswsd
in other vears;
Saw the great hosts marchins on alon' the further
shore,
Like nndgled cIou'Jb in mist, and grey of loved

It is said that where the heart, there the real man
must be-
Where th' unconscious spirit wanders from the
body's prison free.
So the hero, as he had willed it many a time in
that dark past,
Realized his wish and died the soldier's death at last!
Wake, oh Fame, thy holiest pcanr Cheatham,
Hatton, Forrest, Rains!
Noblest of our Tennesseans; ours while deathless
love remains!
Ours, by right divine and human; ours bequeathed
in blood and tears:
By a heritage in common, ours through all the
eternal years. C. E. Mfirill.
DOUGLAS CO. FAIR.
The people of Douglas County responded
right nobly to the call for a fair, to be held at
Olalla on Sept. 18th, and 19th, they gathered
in thick and fast on the first day bringing
their camping outfit etc., prepared to enjoy
themselves, and see what there was to be seen.
The ground selected was ' excellent, for the
purpose and beautiful shaded with large, tall
oak trees, plenty of watet convenient for stock
and cookery The crowd was large and be
hehaved firstclass, there being no liquor
on the ground stronger than lemonade, every
Ixxly was plcaseable and jolly. The exhibits
were not numerous but above the average to
be seen at county fair's and consisted chiefly
of horses, vegetables and fruit. There was
not many cattle but the few shown were of
good stock, showing that the farmers are alive
to their best interests. The horses were the
lest I have ever seen in Oregon and for gen
eral purpose would make a good showing in
any State; there were also some very fine sad'
die and a few heavy draught horses, all to
gether the fair was a huge success aud those
taking part are confident of still greater suc
cess in the future. The people of Olalla and
Ten Mile deserve great crexlit for their energy
and enterprise. The following is a copy of
the resolution offered by Mr Jas. Byron and
unamiously adopted by all present.
Hesolveo, That we declare a coun.y fair
now virtually established, and that as farmers
and mechanics, we pledge the same our solid
support on motion the president Mr. R. B. Ire
land appointed the following gentlemen a com
mittee to meet at Roseburg Saturday Sept. 25,
to select the time and place for the next fair.

Was it Murder or Suicide.
Our enterprising county treasurer in order
to increase his worldly care has added a-Real
Estate office to his official calling. And the
other evening erected an attractive bulletin on
the curbinc of the deep well at the corner for
Douglas and Main streets, which he has at
tractivcly decorated with flaming posters an
nouncmg farms lor sale, rsow the well is
very deep and closed only with curbing and a
trap door, a regular man trap in fact and in
its present condition dangerous to life. The
evening in question just after the arrival of the
passenger train with a number of immigrants
one of our most reputable citizens was passing
this corner and heard a terrible splashing in
the well . It is not known how many per
ished in the rush to get the first choice of
Dave's farms as the well has not been dragged
nor the coroner sent in his report. Well may
the victims exclaim, I sought for land and he
gave me water.
A Walking Skeleton.
Mr. E. Springer, of Meehanicsburg, Pa.n
writes: "I was afflicted with long fever and
abcess on lungs, and reduced to a walking
skeleton. Got a free trial bottle of Dr.
King.s New Discovery for Consumption,
which did me so much good that 1 bought a
dollar bottle. After using three bottles,
found mvsclf once more a man, completely
restored to health, with a hearty appetite,
and a gain in flesh of 48 lbs."
