COURT BACKS PREACHER SAVES TEAM WITH $1000 Says Ho Will Play Any Annihilation in Jackson, Josephine or Klamath County for $1000 Side Bet and Gate Receipts. It hag boon rumored that the Mod lord team was afraid to play the Klamath Falls team or a pick-up team hero -with Cooper In the box. The Medford team has not refused to play any team that would be a drawing card. The luanagoment has letters from other teams, but tho expense Js so great that the team hero could not break even. Now for thoso who think tho Med ford team is afraid, I make this chal lenge: That the Medford team, composed or tho following players: Wilson, Hill, Burgess, Coleman, E. Wilkinson, J. "Wilkinson, Strain, Miles, Hensclman, Hopkins, Isaac, Antel, Rnder and Ulackington. will play any team or flayers now residing in Jackson, Jo sephine or Klamath counties for n one thousand dollar side bet and gate re e!jts. Said game to bo played on the Medford grounds at 3 p. m. Sun day, July 24. This challenge is open Tijtll 6 o'clock Wednesday evening.

Tho rescued man was Qeorgo Kas tinas, a Greek section hand, who had gone in bathing shortly before 9 o'clock Sunday morning. Ho could swim, but it Is presumed that ho was seized with cramp, for ho yelled his distress and attracted tho attention of Mr. Badger, who was out for a walk and had just come down to tho river to get a' drink.

"Tho larger bones of the skeleton wero removed by the person or per sons who buried the body beneath tho cement floor of the collar at ill) llilldrop Crescent. Tho inferenco is that this wns done by tho murderer to hasten decomposition. Yet the dead person may hnvo died a na tural death and for reasons nt pres ent inexplicable thoso who buried it may have become panic-stricken nnd endeavored to conceal the death."
