The Louisiana Purchase states con taiu 63,000 miles of railway, nearly one-lliird the total for the United States. These figures do not include second tracks or sidings. Representatives of the Smith family have applied for space for building at the World's Fair to be the headquarters of the members of that great family when visiting the Ex position. Some genius has figured out that there are 1,000,000 Smiths in the world, but the number who may visit the World's Fair is nndeter mined.

Unsettled bust ness conditions heretofore existing have caused the railroad projiosition to retiro to the background but now it is oou us for immediate action. The bnsiness men are rcsjioiiding to the call nobly as a rule, but thero i opportunity for others to subscrilie, Every property holder and citizen should rex'tond gladly in order to enable us to secure the railroad coaxt word.

When near the old site of the New Era mills, a social train came along which scared their horse, causing it to back their buggy over the perpendicular seven foot wall into the old mill basement, the animal being drawn in after them. Mr. Boyd fell under one of the buggy wheels, and the animal came down on top of it crushing out all the spokes, but the rim sutKiiiued the weight un til ho managed to crawl out. Except severe bruises sustained by Mr. Boyd, no further damage resulted. DROWNED IN THE UMPQUA. Sunday afternoon, while bathing in the South Umiiqua River at the foot of Oak street, in Roseburg, Carlen Kent Lovell, aged about 10 years, wus drowned. The boy, who was unable to swim, got beyond his depth, and sank iu seven or eight feet of water. Dr. Lwikhell used every effort to resuscitate the boy, but hi.-; most persistent efforts proved of no avail, life licing extinct. Tho boy was the eldest sou of Thomas H. Lovell, who is confined in the county jail, charged w ith killing Horace Roadman, near Wilbur, on Sunday, .Tulv , 1002. The deceased was one of the principal witnesses for tin state in the case. HOT GIANT'S TEETH. Mevetodoai Mnlarl Tkt Are tnppoeavd lr ffisplorere to Have llvlonateel So atanklad. The molar teeth of the extinct mas todon resemble In ihe matter of form those of human buings, and it happens quite frequently whenever such teeth are found by those who are ignorant of palaeontology that such people jump to the conclusion that tiiey are the molars of a race of prehistoric giants. Country people, who are well grounded in the Scriptures, are ever prone to reasoning of this charncter, for no matter how far-fetched nnd ab surd their conclusions may he in such matters, they would rather bnse ttieir conclusions in a enve of this sort on the book of (ienesis than upon the so ber and substantial findings of mod ern science, says the Washington Post. Thus it happens that every now and then Dr. Lucas, curator of palaeontol ogy of the National museum, receives from one to several mastodon molars, accompanied by a sensational letter from some free-horn eitien declaring that they are the teeth of a member of so extinct nice of gisnts. "mound builders," or what not, that formerly held sway on lllue Gum Creek or Skunk Kork. Dr. Lucas is very patient mill very obliging and never fails to an--wer all such letters, correcting the error of the writers anil giving correct information as to the fossil hi ques tion. Strange to relate, however, the re cipients of the doctor's kind letters, instead of being thankful for the mass of reliable information that he has furnished in nil willingness, become very much offended over the fact that he has exploded their pet theory.

Noon 4m$mHour. Manv a hard working young woman epends' her noon hour in an endeavor to get a little rest to carry her through the remaining hours of the day. She JS weak andweary, but she cannot give up the occupation which supports her. She must go bark to the office and the type writer, to the store and its duties, with tiresome customers to wait on and ex acting employers to please. For people who are weak and run down there is no medicine so vsluable as Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It cures diseases of the stomach aud other organs of digestion and nutrition. Many diseases in organs remote from the stomach have their origin in a diseased condition of the stomach and its allied organs. When the stomach is "weak" there is a failure to properly digest and assimilate the food which is eaten. Hence the whole body, and each organ of it, suffers from lack of nutrition, so that as a consequence of "weak" stom ach, there niav be " weak " lungs, " weak" heart, "weak" or torpid liver, "weak" nerves, etc. By curing diseases of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition, "Golden Medical Discov ery" enables the assimilation of the nutriment necessary for the requirements of a healthy body. It increases the ac tivity of the blood-making glands, and so increases the supply of blood which is the vital fluid of the body. There is no alcohol in the " Discovery" and it is entirely free from opium, co caine, and all other narcotics. Sick anil ailing people especially those suffering from disease in its chronic form are invited to consult Dr. Pierce by lettet free. All correspondence is held as strictly private and sacredlv confidential. Address Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y. There is no similar offer of free med ical advice which has behind it an in stitute of national note such as the In valids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, Hnli.ilo, N. Y., presided over by Dr. Pierce, its chief consulting physician, with the assistance of nearly a score of skilled specialists. "Tho Wonderful Modioino." "I must n'tm fiend a few tine to you to let you know huw I am Retting along since taking the wonder l ill medicine which cured me two yearn ao," writci Mis Bertha Kbeler, of 1416 Hen ion Street, St. Louis, Mo. "I still continue in very kxk1 health anil think there is not better medicine on earth than Ir. Pierce' Golden Medical Discovery. We would not be without it in the house, and also the little 'Pellets.1 M have recommended Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery to many friend., and they all think it will do just what in claimed for it.
