THE DEADLY MILLPOND.
Charles Link, Drowned in Jones & Co’s.
Mill Pond.
Monday another fatal accident oc­
curred at Jones & Co’s, mill pond in
the mountains. During the day the
■men were at work at a road in the
mountains but quit working about
three o’clock because of rain. They all
came to the mill and soon after
Chas. Link, brother of Walter Link
book keeper for Jones & Co., in this
city, left the house and did not return
at supper. Search parties were sent out
during the evening and the boiler was
fired and the whistle tied down in order
that it would blow all the night. It
was thought he was lost. In the morn­
ing the water in the mill pond was
drawn off and his body was found
amongst the logs. He had probably
left the house and went to the pond
and for sport and curiosity went out
upon the logs, and through accident
fell into the water and drowned. He
was a fine young man, well liked, in­
telligent and industrious. He has been
working at the mill but a short time.
His watch had stopped nt twenty
minutes past four. The body was
found sitting up with the legs caught
beneath a root. Several finger marks
upon a large log freshly barked, showed
that he had struggled to get upon the
log. The body was brought to this city;

The First Step.
Perhaps you ate run down, can’t eat,
can’t sleep, can’t think, can’t do any­
thing to your satisfaction, and you
wonder what ails you. You should
heed the warning, you are taking the
first step into nervous prostration. You
need a nerve tonic, and in Electric Bit­
ters you will find the exact remedy for
restoring your nervous system to its
norniai liealtv condition. Surprising
results follow the use of this great tonic
and alterative. Your appetite returns,
good digestion is restored, and the liver
and kidneys resume healthy action.

Reds, Whites anti Whiskey.
A gentleman who came down from
Sheridan yesterday rejxirts that a cut­
ting scrape occurred there Sunday, in
which two Indians from the Grand
Ronde reservation and two white men
took part, and all were injured, the In­
dians so badly that they are likelv to
die. The trouble anise about some
whiskey, and it is probable that the
so-called white men are no better than
the Indians, and-if the whole outfit

it would have been small loss to the

A National Event.
The holding of the World’s Fair in a city
scarcely fifty years old will be a remarka­
ble event., but whether it will really bene­
fit this nation as much as the discovery of
the Restorative Nervine by Dr Franklin
Mills is doubtful. This is just what the
American people need to cure their exces­
sive nervousness, dyspepsia, headache, diz­
ziness, sleeplessness, neuralgia, nervous de­
bility, dullness, confusion of mind, etc. It
acts like a charm. Trial bottles and fine

Not Dismissed.
Tlie Oregonian reported the other
day that the case of the State of Oregon
against Radam’s Microbe killer was dis­

the ease, and he says the ease is not
dismissed, and it will not lie —not one

ter through. He was elected to see
that the people of Oregon who want
wholesome food and drink get it. Those
who sell adulterated or unwholesome
foods or drinks must so brand them.
