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

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. A companion of
the drowning man ran up and down
on the bank In terror, helpless to

to reach his hair without diving. Kas-

"A prolonged and searching exam

even that tho body is that of u fe

"Tho larger bones of the skeleton

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

may have become panic-stricken

death."

they must prove dead before they

Every available clow that would
lead to the finding of Mrs. Crippen
is being followed. Friends of tho

agency of the police is being exerted
to find her.
The circumstantial evidenco
