PAGE EIGHT aranForcn mate tribune, MEDKmT), Oregon, Friday, may 0.1919 ATTACKED BY A , ' It has just boea learned that Med tord came near losing Its sweet sin ger and enterprising merchant, Harry Manning thru the vicious attack last ' Monday of a white Orpington roos ter.. , . ' . , : ' Mr. Manning was on his way homo Monday evening after having com pleted the fine Victory week display In the Wonder Store. On passing the Commercial club he picked - up a . newspaper and as he wnlkiyi along became engrossed ' in reading the thrilling story of how an American soldier had won his distinguished service cross. He cut In across lots from West Main street to reach his home on North Orange and on pass ing thru a vacant lot glanced up and saw ahead a white rooster lying down In his path. Not dreaming of danger he continued to read. "The command, was given for the , company to attack the German ma chine gun nest. The Huns rained machine gun bullets on the Intrepid band of Americans and men began fast dropping. Corporal Brave felt a sting in his right knee and a shock In his left" ; Medford's Caruso at this Juncture yelled "ouch" and jumped In the air. As he fell a white rooster emerged frantically flying towards his home coop, loudly shouting what is inter preted In poultry language as "mam ma." j . ' '. - The savage rooster said to W of Prussian breed, attacked Mr, Man ning as he came along spurring him In the left knee, penetrating the ' flesh nearly to the bone. Mr. Man ning has been compelled to walk with a cane ever since. Blood poison was at first feared but danger has now passed. -. The same rooster, which weighs about ten pounds; bears a reputation for fierceness, having also recently attacked Ed Warner's son and driven a neighbor woman In the house. It Is probable the rooster will be hand ed over to a Petaluma alienist . R1PPEV PLEADS GUitlY H00KIN8I AT J. A. WESTERLUND SELLS Frank M. Radovan has purchased the entire cherry crop on the Wester lund orchards, will, care for the same, pick It and then, dry It for market. J. A. W,esterlund who closed the deal jtodayjis much pleased with the trans action, have my money" said Mr. Westerlund" and Radovan has the . cherries , 'He does the work ; and takes the' risk while I can make a price on the crop under such an ar rangement, which is to the purchas er's advantage. If we can get the labor-there wlll.be a very orosoerous year for the fruit growers in the val ley. The labor shortage is the only , obstacle " : ... . Deputy Game Warden Ed Walkor made a raid at the .Gold Kay dam early last night and arrested Floyd Rlppey, R." H. Jones, Verne Van Dyke, William Nichols, of Medford -and Sim Morris who is connected with the Park garage at Ashland. Before Justice Taylor today Rlppey pleaded guilty to the charge of hook ing fish and was fined fifty dollars and costs; Van Dyke vand Nichols pleaded not guilty and their trials were set for next Tuesday. On rec ommendation of Prosecutor Roberts the charges against Jones and Morris were dismissed for lack of sufficient evidence as Jones only transported the party to the dam from this city. and Morris only handed Rlppey a pole. Tho deputy game warden claims the party started In at. 7:30 p. m. hooking fish from the fishway, Rlp pey doing the actual work of hooking and Van Dyke and Nichols killing the fish with clubs as he tossed them out. In a half hour. Walker says, they took out three gunny sacks full of fish. He watched them all this tlmh from his place of concealment on the other bank of the river, and finally decided to close in on them. ' . . , r,.When the alleged illegal -fishers saw him-coming across tho river they scattered and mixed up with' 'a crowd of people who were gathered watching,-, except" Rlppey who scur ried into the brush and was found some time later. Walker says he will Subpoena all the persons in the crowd as witnesses against Van Dyke and Nichols. IRRIGATION IN 90 DAYS. (Continued from page one.) JRIALTO TONIGHT Monty Price's last words after the tight in "which the odds against him were three to one, glimpse the dash ing spirit of fearlessness and con tempt for. danger which Zane Qrey puts into this character of his thril ling romancer, "The Light of Western Stars." Monty In his contempt for underhand tricks and treachery lashes Pat Hawe and his two hench men with vituperation - while he awaits fearlessly the shot that may any moment close his Hps. With whistling breath, and taunt ing lips, Monty Price crouched lower, hands at his hips as he edged Inch by inch closer to his foes. His breath came quicker, his voice grew hoarser. Lower and lower he bent, a terrible figure of ferocity. Dogs, skunks buzzards. Flash 'em or - I'll flash mine." .- .- The thrilling sequel forms one of the many striking scenes in Dustin Farnum's great picturization of "The Light of. Western Stars," which comes to the RIalto theatre today and tomorrow only.

Says Troubles Overcome 11c ' "Well, sir, a neighbor of mine put me onto this Tanlac a tew weeks ago, and It's the finest thing 1 have over run across in the sixty-seven years of my life." declared Thomas F. Arnott, of 124 South Ray St., Spokane, while In Murglttroyd's Drug Store recently. "I have suffered for thirty years," he continued, "with-a had stomach and other troubles and spent a large part of what I made for treatments and medicines, but never did get any better nntil I began taking Tanlac. Everything I would eat hurt me and the gas on my stomach would rise up into my chest and cut my breath short. Sometimes my heart would beat so hard and fast that I would Just have to gasp for breath. I was uneasy all the time for fear I had heart trouble. I would have blind dizzy spells when I could hardly stand on my feet. I also suffered with headaches and simply felt play ed out nearly all the time. "I can now eat what I want with out It hurting me for the first timo In thirty years, and since my food di gests and the gas has stopped form ing on my stomach. I don't have any more trouble with palpitation and shortness of breath. Why, before 1 took Tanlac the least exercise would completely tire me out, but now I can walk or work all day long and feel none the worse from it I guess 1 have taken a barrel of medicines of different kinds and lived on a diet, almost starving myself, trying to got rid of my trouble, but I suffered just the same until I got Tanlac. So I know what Tanlac has done for me and I appreciate It enough to tell everybody about it. In my opinion there's nothing on earth like It." Tanlac Is sold in Medford by West Side Pharmacy, in Gold Hill by M. D. Bowers, In Central Point by Miss M. A. Mee, in Ashland by J. J. McNair, in Eagle Point by Von der Hellen. - Adv TOMOR- (I ROW J 'T0- 'H ': NIGHT t. , jiamBJuaJvmujLA&'ip-tMAia GO - J G .... jfaaiiMiMTOM.ttittimwCT - . 1 J . , y .'... , , . .. . . .-i: .... - - ... . . i : DUSTIN FARNUM IN "The Light of Western Stars" .'
