GRANTS PASS CELEBRATES.
Plcasinit Fourth of July Festivities
Extend over Two Davs.
A very pleaKiint nnd enjoyiible
celebration wits held in Grunts
Pass on Friday and Snturduy, July
4iii ana om. i iiouku It waa not so
pretentious and elaborate as Mime cel
ebrations that have been held here,
yet the program was rery good
throughout and some of the features
were exceptionally enjoyable.
For several days preceding the
Fourth tho weather had been' cold
and rainy, raw and disagreeable, to
an extent which was almost a dis
grace to Southern Oregon summer
weather. The olenients, however, in
a handsomely patriotic spirit subsided
at the approach of the glorious-day
and with the exception of a few liuht
sprinkles of very slight damiicuing
effect, the dny was a perfect one, cool,
mild and pleasant, .without the roast
ing sunshine which is a feature of so
many fourth of July celebrations.
iiie attendance was fairly numerous
though tho number of visitors was not
so great a it has been on some previ
ous occasions of like character.
The customary salute was fired at
sunrise; presumably, as the orb was
not visible. At t a. m. tho lieople
congregated at the bicycle linrk to
witness the bicycle races. The first
was a mile race w ith a Crescent bi
cycle as tiie trophy. The race and the
wheel were won by Mux Smith, Curl
Gent nor second. The second was a
ladies' race with a camera as the win
ner's reward. Miss Annette Jordan
secured tlio reward, Miss Abbiu Stack
polo second. The race for boys under
12 years was won by Frank Evans,
Guy Binus second. The most unique
event of the series was a five-mile
motor cycle race between Carl Cent
ner and S. M. Wiley. Mr. Wiley rode
Herb Sampson's machine, and as he
was not thoroughly familiar w ith its
management, was somewhat at a dis
advantage.. Ueutner won handily in
13.65.
The exercises of the day were held
at the ball grounds at 10.30. Several
selections were given by tho Medford
band, prayer was offered by Rev. R.
L. Johnson and the Declaration of In
dependence was read by Miss Pearl
Cunningham. Rev. G. D. Doylo de
livered tho address. lie spoke in a
very impressive manner and tils ad
dress, though brief, was an excellent
one and full of a high order of
patriotism. Tho event of the day was
the base ball game between the Grunts
Pass and Central Point teams. The
grand stand was crowded with the
spectators who gathered to witness the
game. It waa too one-sided to be a
thoroughly satisfactory event and the
spectators' interest soon centered in
the problem, as to whether or not the
Jackson county boys should be allow
ed to score. The Central Pointers
were a badly rattled lot of boys at
several stages of the game, while the
home team piled up the rons iu a
scandulous profusion. Anderson and
Earle were the battery for Grants
Pass until the last inning, when
Martin entered the box and furnished
a spectacular finale by funning three
men with II balls, pitched in swift
succession. The Central Point lsys
took their medicine like men and ac
cepted their fate without grumbling,
earning the cordial ress-ct of the
sjiectators by their persistent good hu
mor and gentlemanly condui t. The
score was 38 to 0.
In the evening a dame was given
at the Opera house by the base ball
club. The music was furnished by
Prof. Boffa's Medford orchestra and
waa of a quality greatly enjoyed and
appreciated by both dancers and s)-c-
tatora. The dance waa well attended
an d was a pleasant event.
The first event on the morning of
the Fifth was the rock-drilliug con
test The Saunders brothers, two
brawny miners of the Oregon Bo
nanza, muscled like Herculea, dril
led 21 Indies in 11 minutes, in a I
granite boulder.
The next event waa the 100 yard foot
rajn which waa woo by Goodwin of
Rose burg by a small lead over 8. M.
Wiley.
Next came the tog-of-war, married
men ra single men. On the first trial
the bachelor liauled their more
weighty opponents over the line and
supposed they had won, but were
brought back and made to try it over
again, a tt apirared tlia. some one

to tha legitlature, no the eanvawVthe
other than the judge had giveu the
word which started the tug. On the
second trinl the feet of the bachelors
refused to stick to the hard smooth
ground and, sliding mid scrabbling
desperately, they were "snaked"
across the scratch. Tho lmchclors
claim that if they could have got
"toe-hold" they would have pulled
the benedicts clear to Merlin.
In the afternoon the Grants Pass
team lined up against tho University
of California for a baso ball game,
The grand stand had been crowded ou
the preceding day but on this occasion
it was literally packed till many could
hardly move hand or foot. The Berk
eley team were hull players, without
any qualifying adjectives, and had
victory in plain view from tho very
start. Their team work nnd fieldimr
were snerb and they wero an aggrega
tion of heavy hatters. On the other
hand, some of tho Grants Pass team
did more mulling and fumbling than
was consistent with good baseball and
made a iiumlicr of costly errors.

Grants Pass and it apiieared for a time
as though the score might prove a ru
versed reproduction of that of the pre
ceding day. The Grants Pass boys,
however, managed to squeeze iu two
runs. The stwond one was mado by
i.arle tiy brilliant luise running and
desis-rate taking of ehances. The
scoro stood 111 to S iu favor of Berk
eley. Our battery, Murtiu and Earle,
appeared snicrior to that of Berkeley,
hut tho Berkeley supKrt was perfect.
Ill the evening, tho "Six" orchestra
gave a ball at the Opera house, which
was well attended and was one of the
most pleasant of tho dances. The
populur "Six" furnished their usual
pleasing quality of music.
A platform dance at tho hall
grounds furnished entertainment to
numy. It was conducted after the
manner of the rural "hoist" and was
apparently enjoyed greatly by both
participant and sisictators.
THE "CKMKNT BOULDER. "
Thero is one of Josephine county's
scenic curiosities that has been wen
only by a coinarative few; the great
rock known as the "cement boulder."
situated on the trail .leading down to
Briggs creek from the lumber camp
of Swede Basin, and distant only two
or three miles from tho hitter place.
The Swede Basin mountain is the
culminating jsiint of a uuinlxT of
"back lsine" ridges and on this
mountain, some half dozen creeks take
their source; tributaries of Briggs
creek, the Illinois, the Apph gute and
Rogue river. Swede Basin is situated
tary of Briggs creek and on the ridge
intervening between Swede creek
audits sister tributary, Onion creek,
runs the trail leading to Briggs creek
and the lonelier regions farther down
the Illinois.
Very soon after leaving Swede Bas
in, the luxuriant growth of timlsr
censes ami the country asxumcs a
rougher and wilder asjsct. The trail
begins to wind here and thero among
the risks and the ridge Isgins to
grow narrower with stceisT declivi
ties until it is barely w ide enough for
the trail and just as it reaches the
acme of narrow ni hs und is like some
great blunt inverted knife blade, it
conies to a sudden end und the dci-liv-
ity plunges sharply off toward Briggs
creek, widening to the bottom like J
a fan. The trail zig-zags down, iu and
out of the brush jsttches, a mile or
more of steepness without a rest and
a terror to the jiatii-nt ickpony.
Junt where tho trail turns over tho
edge and assumes the is rjs.ndicular,
the "cement boulder" sits on the
ridge with a pcrcurious poise. The
boulder is a great mass of conglomer
ate, some ill) or 4) feet iu diameter,
irregular in shajs-, small at the bot
tom, swelling to its greatest diame
ter in the middle and narrowing otl
again at I lie top. It stands on a Use
not more than five or six feet ai-rcsw.
It dissi not occupy tho center of the
ridge, which is no wider than the
base of the rock, but sits on the ex
treme edge and partly overhanging
the slope, o thai it lenvea barely
room for the trail to pass. The trail
hugs the boulder and run partly be-ui-ath
it, so that a moderately tall
man has to bow his head as he immm s
and a loaded pack animal has fairly 10
p-eze jstst. The rock ia not attached to
the ridge but is merely balanced upon
it If It could be placed thereby
design, it would have to be manipu
lated very delicately n make It stay

PLATINUM HUNTE"RSiN JOSE
PHINE. Thero is a platinum craze on in
Josephine mining circle. The num
ber of discoveries of this metal that
have been mado in the surrounding
districts recently, and the high price
that it commands in tho market, has
induced many Southern Oregon pros
pectors and miner turn their atten
tion towards platinum. The efforts
in this direction are meeting with
success and Josephine County bids
fair to becomo an imortnnt rival of
the Ural district, Russia, In the mat
ter of a platinum producer. The
metal is being discovered 111 nearly all
of tho districts of Joscphiuu County.
Nearly every day rejiorts are received
hero of new discoveries iu soino of the
surrounding districts.
The Welsliach Gas Fitting Company
of Philadelphia, has put a crow of
men to work iu the placer fields of the
Illinois River to mine platinum.
This comiiaiiy needs a great amount
of this metal constantly in the manu
facture of their goods and have found
dilnculty in the more recent jsist to
secure enough to supply them. They
have installed patented machinery of
their own design for mining platinum,
and they hosi to securo enough of the
metal in the Illinois placers to jsirtly
supply the needs of their conismy.
They havo had exisTts on the ground
a number of times this imst Winter,
milking nn examination and securing
samples for test purposes. The fact
tht the rnmimny lias installed ma
chinery and put a largo crew of men
to work is sulllcieiit evidence thai
they are satisfied there is platinum in
the placer beds of tho Illinois.
These placer fields have lieen work
ed constantly for their gold values
for the just half century. No uttciupt
has ever been made to save the plati
num; in truth the miners who have
oisTated in the district havo been
throwing the metal from their sluices
at cleun-up time, being ignorant of its
identity and value. The discovery
the district will gr
ly enhance the value of the placers,
as the two metals, gold and platinum,
can Is) mined for at the same time and
practically by the same process.
In the ancient Illinois river chan
nel, where it Is found more extensive
ly thun in nny other part of the
country, the metal is found w ith hlm k
sand on the ser ntine ls dns k. Hen-,
too, is found the strange and unknown
metal, " JoM-phineite, " recently mi n
tioned ill The Telegram, and which
will likely prove to 1st one of the five
platinum grousi, rhodium, iridium,
osmium, or ialladium, ull of which,
together w ith iron, copisT and gold,
are almost always present iu small
quantity in what Is called its nat ivi
H,"l". This blin k sand, in which
"IU l'latinuin occurs, settles to the
hot torn of the placer sluices with the
gold, so that the separation of the
metal would )m an easy mutter when
ine proper process or separation is
used.
Platinum has also been found in the
Lower Rogue River district in con
siderable quantity. Millers and pros
pectors of this section are making
themselves more familiar with the
metal, so they may Is- able to recog.
nizc it when they find it.

ROGUE RIVER.
I live anear Roguo River,
To mo both slreum and lake,
And out ou this great mirror
lioatrides I love to take.
With ninny children round ine,
I lovo to glide along.
I'll tell them stunning fish tales
They'll sing for me a song.
Tho sun's bright lays are gleaming;
llie water siuirklcs bright ;
On either side the river
Tho green fields greet our sight.
And up und down wo'ru passing
Liku imoplu ou a street ;
And some are at tho "White Rocks,"
Near lover's choice retreat.
Through waves that run forever
To swell the surging sea
Wo sail the enchanted river
Where llslius flounder free.
And there's old mountain" Buhly. "
With head high iu the air,
The homo of fragrant (lowers
He's often made to spare.
How beautiful, how verdant I
With grass thut's always green,
And picturesque surroundings
To aid each pleasing scene.
And glimpses nigh of heaven
Do sometimes here apjM'ar,
While voices of the angels
You almost seem to hear.

TIIK AI'PKAL OK WOMANHOOD.
I do not know what you may think
of the woman's crusade, but let nie
say, as a woman who stood inside of
it, that the womanhood of this nation
never laitl such a tribute at the feet
of its luanhtHHl. If you want to find
out what a boy is worth, go and ask
his mother; by tho time she gis-i in
to the Jaws of death to give him birth,
iuul then puts into him her days of
love and nights of cure, and ho stands
fore her strong and clean nnd tall
at twenty-line, she can tell you what
lie Is worth from the crown of his
head In the soles of his feet ; ami when
the legalized dramshop takes hold of
him, ami tears him down, tlls-r by
lilier, and puts oaths on tho lips she
d to kiss, and crushes nut his
mother's lios , it is no wonder she
makes outcry. If you want to know
Inn a home js worth, go and ask a
loving ui in, in who has kept hersel
as pure as (mils lilies for her marring,-
day, when, with great shine
iu her eyes, site puts herself over into
the hands of one man, for la-tfcr or
for worse, for richer or for tsxircr, un
til life's end. And when the dram
shop w ith Its fearful curse crosses the
threshold of the liiiuie tin y built to
gether, and takes down In r slroug
tow er of hos-, stone by stone, and de
grades the father of her children, It Is
no wonder woman makes outcrv.

What wo the woman's crusade T It
was a long-smothered Bob breaking in
to a cry : it wn a midnight nravor
coming abroad at noonday. You men
sometime say to ns, as we stand iu
place like this, "Home is your king
dom." We do not dispnto it; wre
know it bettor than you know it; but
it was our kingdom that was out
raged. You say to us, standing bal
lotlcss and defenseless before this
vampire of our civilization, "You do
not need the ballot ; we defend you by
love nnd by law." Do Ton? When
for oighty-Bve years, by well-defluod
license legislation, motherhood has
been uncrowned and her children slain
by law, and you have made no protest
against it I Y ou havo prayed about it
In iirayer-meetiug. bnt 'when it come
to the sweep of empire ill the ballot-
box and iu political organizations.
you have mado no protest. Oh I men,
a civilization is not worth much that
cannot protect it women and it
babies. And grand ns you nro and
strong a you are and true as yoa are.
yon will never bo able to protect your
women and your children and the
dramshop at the sumo time?"" Oh I in
shame, iu very shuinrt, either got up
and strike down this enemy of the .
homo and of wifehood and of child
hood, or else put the ballot into the
hands of your women for their own
protection. Extract of a speech by
