The game was a fast one, and some brilliant playing was done by mem bers of the Grants Pass team. Field ing of the home team was exception ally skillful, and when Short Stop Faublon made a double jump of thirty feet, caught a long drive and put a Medford runner out at third the home fans made the hills echo with some long howls of glee. Catcher Baker made the Medford woners mad as wet hens, as by his ever watchful eye and expert work not one of Hall's men could play the stealing act on him and they usually died at second. Pitcher Wilcox for Grants Pass had the Medford willow wlelders fan ning the air until, It Is said, each one developed much muscle. The Grants Pass ball played all around them and over them like forked lightning, and when they reached for It It was safe in Baker's mitt. Wilcox is one of the most skillful pitchers In the minor leagues of the coast. He's training came on the team at St. Mary's acad emy at Oakland, Cal., the premier college team of the coast. WIckler, on second base, made some sensational stops and sent grim misery into the Medford camp. The visitors did earnest work, but it could not count against the fast and correct playing of Roper's young sters. The game furnished great sport for the rooters and fans, and being the first one of the season was doubly entertaining. Grants Pass will meet Medford again next Sunday at Medford and Court Hall declares he will humble the haughty Grants Pass stars and send them home with their colors trailing In Rogue River valley duBt. Roper declares that the dust bath will be Medford's portion and that If no mean luck befalls them .hat Grants Pass will have an opportun lty to march through Medford's streets streets singing "I told you so, I told you so." Thus the fun is on and Rogue River valley will be the scene of lively baseball contests from now until the leaves begin to fall. The lineup and game by innings follows: Medford 0 2 2 0 0 0 0 0 Grants Pass 0 0 0 0 0 1 3 3 Hits off Wilcox, 6; struck out by Wilcox, 5. ' Hits off Burgess, 1; struck out by Burgess, 6. ..

Phone 1201 WEEKLY ROGUE RIVER COURIER LARGE DEPOSITS GOLD ORE IN ORIOLE MINE Lode mining In Southern Oregon, especially In Josephine county, has of late attracted wide attention In the mining w.orld, through the uncover ing of large deposits of gold ore in the Oriole property. In the Gallce mining district.. Placer gold has been successfully mined in this region since the early 50'b of the past century and the pro- ductlon has reached well into the mil lions by that method. Systematic prospecting for the source of this placer gold, however, has but fairly started, and the show ing thus far made has been uniform ly satisfactory; so much so that several large companies have bean organized and the eve of extensive lode mining is now at hand. ' ABide from the splendid showings made at the Almeda, Golden Wedge and ether properties In the Gallce dis trict, the Oriole property deserves especial mention, due to the phenom enally rich character of some of the ore encountered, as well as the mag nitude of the lower grade milling ores. The great ore zone of the Oriole, as now proven, attains a width of 210 feet, the hanging wall being a sheer quartzlte and the foot wall a metamorphic slate. The vein fill ing is composed of quartz stringers and nodules of quartz, lnterbedded in BOft, slaty material. The gold val ues are Intimately associated with the quartz and exist chiefly pyrltlc and other sulphide formB. The high- grade ore Is perhaps valaverlte, ow ing to Its extreme mixture and al most absence of silver values. There are practically two-thirds of mile in development, consisting of tunnels, drifts and cross-cuts. The fourth tunnel is now being driven Into the ore body, which will open the vein nearly 600 feet below the apex of the hill through which the vein passes. This tunnel will be 937 feet In length before Intercepting the vein, and will definitely prove the dependable extent of the deposits, as well as the physical character of the ore and place the company In pos ition to determine the kind and ca pacity of a plant to be Installed for the commercial treatment of the ore. The Oriole property consists of nine mining claims, covered with a virgin growth of fir and pine timber sufficient to meet, all mining and building requirements for the next quarter of a century.' The company also holds valuable water rights sufficient to operate every kind of machinery and mill during the greater portion of the year. The present equipment con sists of an air compressor, power drills, sawmill, assay laboratory, two blacksmith shopB, electric lights, a commodious two-story boarding house, bunk house, and numerous minor essentials. The greatest optimism Is expressed by all who have seen the property and inspected the immensity of the ore body. Should values Increase at the fourth level in proportion to what they have in the upper levels, the property is destined to become one of the great gold producers in the country. It would seem by the opening of thiB great property that the Gallce district Is now on the verge of a real and substantial min ing boom, such as has not been ex perienced since the discovery and exploitation of the placer deposits in pioneer days. Several shipments of the higher grade of ore have been made by the Oriole Gold Mining company to the Tacoma smelter, all of which have retted handsome returns; the laBt recent shipment of 20 ft tons netted the company $3,724.13. The people of Grants Pass should spare no effort to encourage the in dustry of mining, 'mt development now going on In the Gallce district, right at our doors, overshadows al most every Industry tributary to ('rants Pass. Investments made in the district are certain to pay hand some dividends to the investors and they will, to a large extent, add to the commercial Industry of Grants Pass, while, at the name time, It will tnake a home market for our agricul tural products. .The value of gold production in any section can hard ly be overestimated. The raining of gold In California for the ten years j following the discovery of 1849 en jrl'hed the world. The Alaska mines l have added great prosperity to the I United States and Canada. The mil lions of dollars in gold that have been mined In pact years in Josephine county, addd to the wealth of the country beyond its borders, but did not enrich the people of this section, for the reason that the miners add ed nothing to the development of the country outside of mining the gold That was placer mining. We have now reached the age of quarts min - ing, and this requires the building ol mills and a development of meth ods for working the rock, and the employment of many men. There Is an opportunity here to build up a Leadvllle or Cripple Creek, but it will need the help of the people of tuo capital town of Josephine county. E. E. Coffman, wife and baby ar rived here Tuesday afternoon from Kansas and will visit relatives in this city for several weeks. Mr. Coffman Is a brother of Mrs. Lucas, Mrs. Shanks and Miss Jaie Coffman, of Grants Pass. COUNTY CLERK'S SEMI.

LIQUID CURES ECZEMA WHERE SALVES FAIL In regard to skin diseases, medi cal authorities are now agreed on this: Don't imprison the disease germs in your skin by the use of greasy salves, and thus encourage them to multiply. A true cure of all edema tous diseases can be brought about only by using the healing agents In the form of a liquid. WASH THE GERMS OUT. A simple wash: A compound of Oil of Wintergreen, Thymol, and oth er ingredients as combined In the D. D. D. Prescription. This penetrates to the disease germs and destroys them, then soothes and heals the skin aa nothing else has ever done. A 25 cent trial bottle will start the cure, and give you Instant relief. M.
