A Grand Success.
CRISIS IS AT HAND
War Situation in Far East as Indica
ted by Late Dispatches, Is Now
Nearing a Crisis and Everything
Points to Early Fall of Arthur.
BALTIC SQUADRON NOW IN RED SEA
A Japanese cavalryman who has been
captured by the Russians declares that
Gereral Kuroki is not dead, as has been
rumored among the Chinese.
Foreign reports of the fighting at Port
Arthur are accepted here very serouslv.
If the Japanese have taken 203-Meter
Hill as reported, commanding the whole
harbor, it is believed that the situation is
critical. Experts on Port Arthur topo
graphy assert, however, that it is more
likely that the Japanese have occupied
some positions at the base of the hill, and
believe that owing to the concentrated
fire of the covered forts the Japanese will
find the top of the hill untenable if they
arrive there.
According to information on which has
reached the War Office, Field Marshal
Oyami's strength is much smaller than
heretofore believed, tending to confirm
the theory that a large force has been
withdraw to assist in storming Port Aur-
thur. This information is to the effect
that not much more than 150,000 men
are now confronting General Kuropatkin
but that the Japanese line are heavily
fortified in order to check any aggressive
movement which Kuropatkin might un
dertaKe long enough to enable the Jap
anese to hurry up reinforcement by rail
from the peninsula.
According to a Tokio dispatch to the
Standard, there is an official rumor that
the Japanese have hauled large caliber
guns to the top of 203-Meter Hill, whence
their fire has a sweep of the whole har
bor. Japanese here explain the great
importance of the capture of 203-Meter
Hill, which, besides giving command of
the harbor, will serve as a wide breach
made by the wedge the Japanese had
previously driven in between the Etz
group and the Russians’ last retreat in
the ravines of Laotie Mountain. They
declare that retreat to Laotie will be
effectually cut off, and it is not unlikely
that Laotie will be simultaneous!}* at
tacked in the final assault. Desperate
fighting in proceeding daily, and the
losses are admitted to be excessive, but
the Japanese insist that Port Arthur must
fall within 21 days.
Will Increase Their force.
Henry Miller returned Thursday from
the Millionaire mine where he says
things are progressing in a most satis
factory manner under the management
of Supt. J. E. Davidson. A crew is now
at work on a drift from the shaft at a
depth of about 130 feet where good pro
gress is being made and good values en
countered. It is the intention of the new
company, which has now come into com
plete ownership of the property having
recently made their final payment, to
enlarge the bunk house and other neces
sary quarters and put on a much larger
force thus hurrying the development of
the property at a much more satisfactory
rate than can be done with the present
force.
The Rogue River Creamery, Medford,

The Thanksgiving ball, given here at
Orth's hall last Thursday evening was a I
grand success in every respect, as is all '
such undertakings of The Native Daugh
ters of Jacksonville. There was a large
crowd present, many attending from
Medford and other neighboring towns,
while the music which was furnished by
Miller’s dance orchestra of Medford, was
said to be the very l>est. The supper |
was served in the I. O. O. F. banquet I
hall and was one of the most pleasing '
!
features of the evening la-ing one of those I
famous and sumptuous banquets for i !
which the local Native Daughters are ’
noted. Jane McCully Cabin, by whom 1 I
the ball was given cleared something .
over $50.00.
