There are iadg in medicine as in every thing else and a “new thing” frequently sells for a short time simply because it is new. But in medicine, as in nothing else, the people demand and will be satisfied only with positive, absolute merit The fact that Hood's Sarsaparilla has stood its ground against all competition, and its sales have never wavered but have remained steadily at the top, demonstrates, beyond any doubt, the intrinsic virtues of this medicine. The new things have come and gone but Hood’s Sarsaparilla rests upon the solid foundation of absolute merit and Its power to cure, and its sales continue to be the largest in the world. MARRIED.

The county stock inspector of Jackson county was wanted at the other side of the state line last Friday to attend to the duties of his office in the sheep line. This work was formerly attended to by Deputy Stock Inspector Geo. W. Stephenson of this city who was well qualified for the position, and located conveniently to attend to the duties at the least expene to those bringing stock in the state. Deputy Express Messen ger Geo. Cillette was kept busy finding out who was the man. 8. A. Carlton the new stock inspector lives up Butte creek, off the raiiroad and telegraph or telephone lines and could not be reached. Gillette took the phone and had a long talk with Connty Judge Crowell, the substance of which was in case the stock inspector did not mater ialize to take the sheep off the train at Ash land, the county being responsible for dam ages. In the meantime efforts were made to rustle up the deputy, one L. Wiggen. No body knew him. When the train reached Siskiyou station Wiegen arrived on the scene nervous and excited and look ed as If he anticipated a big band of sheep. Express Messenger Kelton took Wiggin into his car and showed him one sheep. It was a noble looking, proud, pompous «nd autocratic Cotswold buck. Wiggin was almost overcome with awe and took of his hat to Mr. Buck with as much dignity as he could muster up. During the course of his conversation with the distinguished Cots wold sheep Wiggin became intimate and even confidential, telling him he was only a deputy, but should have been the chief, as County Judge Crowell had promised him the place, but when the time came gave it to another and tried to smooth his ruffled feelings by making the chief appoint him deputy. He was a McKinley .gold standard republican; didn’t Know but few people here, but knew everybody at Oakland, Cal. The express messenger let the conversation go on between the stock inspector and the sheep until Wiggen said, “I’ll charge you $11.50 cents for looking at you, $3 for the look and 10 cents per mile from Medford each way.” Here is where the express messenger interrupted the conversation and asked if be wouldn’t pay the express charges and take the sheep. Wiggin com promised with the express company by taking $8.50 for inspecting and the sheep continued on to Dayton. Wash. The new administtation is rather expensive. Mill Feed.

A C. railroad outside of the Lake Labish wreck, occured Tuesday morning near Green’s station, in Douglas county, and resulted in the instant killing of two rail road men and the subsequent death of a third. Conductor Pat Tynan and crew brought the south bound overland into Reseburg and Conductor Fred Wall took the train and started for Ashland. After being out awhile he discovered that he did not have the conductor's tickets. So be stopped the train at Dillard's station, twelve miles south of Roseburg, detached the engine and taking with him Engineer James Porter, Fireman Geo. Happersett and Brakeman Ben Lohr, they started back to Roseburg to get the missing tickets. There being no telegraph at Dillards station they fiaged back as tar as Green's station, Brakeman Lohr, who did the flagging, which is going ahead of the engine some distance and putting torpedoes on the track so as to apprise the flag engine of an approaching engine or car, was here order ed into the engine as any immediate known danger was deemed passed and the crew in Porter’s engine speeded along toward Roseburg without a flagman. In the meantime the railroad agent al Roseburg found that Conductor Wall had left his tickets. The train dispatcher ordered out. a light engine to overtake the south bound passenger train and keep a lookout for it and the section hands. That engine was in charge of Engineer McCaullev. Fireman McGonigleand Brakeman Albert M. Toy. This crew expected that Conductor Wall would take his train to Myrtle creek, which was the first telegraph station. With these barriers down there was present the addit ional misfortune, a very foggy morning. Both engines came together with a clash. Engineer McCaullev being unable to see Conductor Wall's engine through the fog. The tanks of both engines were ’badly de molished. Engineer Porter had reversed his engine before being thrown from the cab and the engine broke from the tank and ran south wild for over two miles, where it was found exhausted. The passengers sat in the train at Dil- lar’s for two hours before knowing about the terrible accident that had occured only a few miles from them. A tramp told them of the occurence. Fireman McGonigle and Brakeman Toy were instantly til ed and Fireman Hap persett had to have his limbs amputated and died about 13 hours later. Engineer Porter had a leg broken and was badly in jured. At last report he was still alive. Conductor Wall was bruised and cut about the face, McCauiley was badly bruised and Ben lx>hr was cut about head and face. A farmer rode into Roseburg with the news and a relief corps was instantly or ganized by Supt. Fields, who was in Rose burg, and the wounded and dead were prop- erlv taken care of. McGonigle was buried at Portland and Toy at Salem. Happer- sette leaves a widow and two eh ldren, R. R. and Other Aseesamente. The county board of equalization, com posed ot W. 8. Crowell, Henry Klippel and Geo. A. Jackson, convened Monday and will be in session all week. The principle interest centers in the railroad assessment, of course. The advance guard of the railroad lobby has been on hand and today the big guns arrived in tbe shape of R, Koehler, the able gen eral manager, and his brainy attorney, Hon. J. D. Fenton, and the set-to is on. Everybody thinks the board will stand by tbe figures made by Assessor Jack- son or a raise to something like tbe same, as the public sentiment of the county expects tbe board to hold the company to something like a reasonable assessment in place of tbe nominal one heretofore paid. In 8iskiyou county the assessed valu ation of the tracks and rolling stock of the Southern Pacific railroad for this year is $1.448 042, or $17,408 53 per mile for the 83.- 18 miles of road in that county. The total value of taxable property in Siskiyou county for this year is $7,673,697. Wood Wanted. 50 cords of oak and 50 cords of pine or fir. Bids wanted. Apply to J. Conner, Hotel Oregon. A Santa Cruz, Cal., dispatch says W. D. Humbert, of the Ashland Woolen mills is there looking for a location to move his mill on account of tbe high freight rates here. A bar of gold bullion ugregatiug $»7tf,- 000 was brought into Yum», Aria, the other night from the La Fortuna mine, representing a thirty days’ run of tbe twenty stamps of the mine. It is the largest bar of bullion ever brought to Yuma. The telegraph operators and train dispatchers of the Canadian Pacific Railway have struck. It is not certain justjiow many men went out. A com mittee claiming to represent the tele graph operators sought an interview with the executive officers in Montreal to discuss some alleged grievances, but refused to tell the officers of the divis ions on which they are employed, as they are required to do by the regular tions of the company. This appears to be the only reason for the strike.

Delegate McHugh of the Interna tional Federation of Marine Trades in Great Britain has had a conference in New York with General James Williams of the Atlantic Seacoastmen’s Union.

It is asserted on good authority in New York that Chauncey Depew and Miss Edith Collins, his ward, are to be married in October. Miss Collins is a great grand daughter of Commodore Vanderbilt, and is a distant relation to Mr. Depew. The rains this season in Candelaria, Mexico, have been the heaviest known in that section for ten years, and have proved excedingly destructive to prop erty. Mining property suffers losses to the extent of thousands of dollars. Notice has been posted in the Home stead and Edgar Thompson mills of the Carnegie Steel Co., Pittsburg, that the present wage scale will expire on Jan uary 1st. The officials of the company state that there is no contemplated change in wages, but that the notice has l e>n posted merely to make a re adjustment possible incase it should be desired by the 1st of January.
