and coutiuoes for the remainder of
the week, hai every indication of be
ing among the biggest events eier held
in Grants Pass, and if Jupiter Plnviui
hot off oo his sky irrigatin for to
morrow the events will yet be an affair
of which the oity may well be ptond,
The rain which started in Sunday and
has continned with more or less fre
qoency for the week lias prevented
the large attendance that otli-iwise
wonld have come to the city from all
sections of Sootlierti Oregon.
A series of amnnstment features
were arranged for each day and not
withstanding the inclement weather
the events for Tlinrtday and Friday
were carried oot as will be those of
Saturday.
The (ports of Thursday opened at 10
o'clock with a quarter mile running
race, three horses entering. The start
was made in front of the Courier
office, G street, finishing near the pine
needle factory. After some jockeying
the horses were off and a spirited race
ensned in which Jo Russell's horse
won. Torpin second and tN. Par
ker tnird.
The afternoon fnn started off with
the greased pig, which had been
s havcd and ils body annointed with
liberal quantities of lard. The pig
was given a 80 foot start and off they
went. The pig did seme stouts at
dodging and finally led a noisy chase
toward tlio pine needle factory. Sev
real people had their hands on the
porker hot it was finally captured
by J. It. Wells, who fell on the pig
and "suriounded" it. Wells prefer
red coin to the ownership of the pig
so it was purchased and will be liber
ated again Salmday, remaining the
property of the person who captures it.
The greased pole kept the crowd in
good humor for half an hour or more
while the rmall boys made frantio
attempts to gain the prize for reaching
the top. A numuer of the boys were
given a mart of several feet but as
con as the support was removed they
immediately descended. Fiually
young Kenneth Barkley reached the
top and wits awarded the 2.60 prize.
This was increased to ty the ad
dition of nickles and dimes from the
bystanders.
The ball game between the business
and professoinnl men was a souroe of
great entertaining nt to the bystanders
and was enjoyed to extent by the
players theruselvos, even though they
knew their over exeited mnsclea must
pay the penalty on the morrow. The
game was exciting at times but too
much one-sided, the professional men
playing like prnfessiuals from the
start. The score stood 8.5 to 8 in favor
of ti e professional men.
Thursday's program closed with a
concert by a band made up of former
members of (he Grants Pats Cornet
Baud. The boys, though not in regu
lar practice, played with a (map and
vigor and their selections were greatly
enjoyed by the large crowd wl Ich
gathered on Sixth street, where the
concert was given.
The track eveuts commenced the por
grurn Friday and were very interest
ing. Th- winners were as follows:
NrO yard dash, Albert Coe; 440 yard
dash, John Brattou; i-mile run, Al
bert Coe : miming broad jump, John
Bratton 17j feet; high jump, F. C.
Palmer, 5 tret 2 inches. A tug of
war between a team of married men
and single men was wou by the Ben
edicts, who pulled the young men,
after a hard contest, oot of action.
The Dark Town fire department bri
gade gave an exhibition drill during
(he forenoon that was side-splitting
to the onlookers in the mirth they pro
voked in their frautic efforts to pnt
out it roaring fire that was rapidlt
consnmii'g a large structure made of
dry goods boxes which had been
erected on the railroad grounds east of
the depot. The violent ringing of the
city tire bell and the screeching of lo
comotive whistles gave the alarm of a
big fire and promptly the Dark lown
brigade nulled up Sixth street to the
hydrant nearest the tire where their
dump cart stopjH d and spilled out hose
and Airmen in one big in imp. Their
steam fire engine proceeded to the tire,
and the heroin work of the engineers
to keep up steam and the gallant ef
forts of the firemen in operating their
spray pump kept the crowd so deeply
interested that the hosemeo were
overlooked until the hose had been
laid and with r turned on, but more
on the spectators and Bremen than on
the fire. The takeoffs oo the blunders
that are too often made by volunteer
firemen were ludrirrous in the sx-
trerue, ai.d the Dark? firemeu were
given a cheer for the fon they tiad
afforded the crowd.
The Saturday eveuts will b6 all
highly interesting, and a leading In
ture wiil be tiie big harlecue dinner,
the meat for whicli has been in roast
ing for the pant 24 hours, at a tit ou

jAfTIST YOUNG PEOPLE F
EFFECT ORGANIZATION
Will Embrace All the Baptist
Young People's Societies in
Southern Oregon.
Thia la an age of organization. In
business, politics, refoim movements,
religions affairs, aud, in fact, in every
line of activity the necessity of thor
ough organization is keenly felt; and
the individual or combination that
would succeed best must not lose sight
of this important fact.
The young people of the various
Baptist chnrchea of the Rogue River
Association Lave shown their progres
sive spirit by meeting lu convention
for the purpose of effecting a more
thorough organization of their work.
This meeting was held in Grants Pass
Friday evening and all day Saturday,
Sept. S3 and 23. and as a result an or
ganization was formed which is known
as the "Baptist Young Ftot le's Union
of the Rogue Jliver Association." The
young people are very enthusiastic
over this new organitzaion and it is
their belief that this is only the begin
ning of a larger and mire efficient
work for the cause of Christ in South
ern Oregon.
Twenty-four delegates from the Ash
laud, Med ford, Merlin aud Selnia
rhuiches were present. Most of these
came frcm the two formor churches
Friday evening. They were met at
the train by a committee of Grants
Pass young people aud escorted to the
home of Mr. J. D. Drake where a
sumptuous supper was waiting for
them. After their physical needs
were supplied, the delegntts went to
the Baptist church to find a spiritua'
feast ready for Hum. A fifteen niiu
ute devotional service with the
thought of the Psalmist, "Bless (he
Lord, O my soul, and all that is with
in me, blets His holy name," was the
first thing cn the prgruni. Thin iua
short but well wi rdt d si et ch Rev. J.
B. Travis, of the Giants Par-6 church,
extended a most hearty welcome to
the. visiting delegates. He said he was
glad to welcome the young people be
cause they stcod for life aud useful
ness. The address of the evening
"Value of au Associational Organiza
tion for Our Young People," wa
given by Miss Carrie O. Millai atigh,
State Secietary of the B. Y. P. U. Iu
a veiy helpful way she pointed out the
good results to be derived iroiu thor
ough organization.
Saturday morning alter a devotional
seivke, the work of organization was
taken up with Rev. J. B. Tiavis as
temporary chaiimau. A constitution
which bad been ilraftid by a commit
tee appointed the previous evining,
was adopted and officers elected. The
first lienor csme to tke Grants Pass
Union iu this eliclion. Roy K.
Hcckett, who had hem largely instru
mental in bringing about the conven
tion, was unnuimonsly chosen for the
presidency. Whin the other olhVers
bad been elected, reports from the
various societies were given. Some
of these reports were very encourag
ing. They showed couclusivtly tt at
the work of the Baptist young people
of SoutheruOregon is moving forward.
This business having been ccuipleted,
Rev. F. N. Baker, of Ashland, took
the platform and gave an inspiring
address on the "Relation of the Young
People's Society to the Church. " He
considered the young peopli's society
as the right arm of the church, and as
such its relatien most vital. He pro
phesied a very premising future for
the "infant nniou" of this convention.
Mr. Baker's address was followed by
Rev. J. C. Austin, of Medford, who
told of the great opportunities the
young people's society has for doing
missionary work. Within the reach of
every society art many places where
Sunday schools can lie formed and other
religious services rendered by the cou
secratid young niiu or woman.
The afternoon was largely devoted
to the discussion of committee wors
and ptaiis of the local union. There
was an interchange of ideas which is
sure to result iu much stood. At the
close of this sisnion, a committee was
appointed to draw up resolutions ex
pressing the attitude of the convention
toward the manufacture aud stle of
lutoxlctting liquors us a heveiage.
This committee reported just at the
beginning of the evening service; and
the convention resolved to "take a de
termined stand against this in furious
business and to do all in its jowir to
crush this monstrous evil."
In the evening, after a devotional
Servic". Rev. F. W. Carstens, of Med
fril, delivered a masterly address on
the "Divine t'll to Service." He
based his thoughts Uh,ii the call of
Muses to lead the chi dreu of Israel
out of hgypt luto the "promised
land," He (relieves that every true
minister of the Gosiel is railed of
iod ; aud lurther.thnt jieople in every
walk of life may be divinely called t.i
service if they are willing to come in
to the right relatiuu with God. 'Ihis
service closed the convention aud the
delegates dis-rsed deling that they
hd receivtd a personal inspiration
aud '.hat foundation wolk had been
done for greater suio-ss iu the future.

A very simple way to tell whether
your room is properly ventilated is to
place a wide-neck bottle of water into
which put au ounce of lime water
somewhere lu the room, letting it re
main there uncovered over night. If
in the morning the lime water Is
milky, the ventilation Is very bad In
deed. If the lime water becomes
nilky on your coveting the bottle
mouth with your hand and shaking
the vessel, the ventilation is not softl
ciintlygood. If the lime water re
mains clear the air of that room is
pur.
