OF HARD
LUCK
A dispatch from Medford, Or.,
Monday says W. R. McKlssick was
killed while attempting to climb up
on a moving freight train in the Med
ford yard yesterday afternoon at 4
o'clock, his body being literally
ground into fragments.
McKisslck was a miner working in
the- Bluo Ledge mine. Coming home
unexpectedly he found a man named
Law interfering with his domestic re
lations. Saturday ho attacked Law,
and chased him down Soventh street
in Medford, and throw a rock at him
In front of the Nash hotel. Yester
day McKlssick swore out a warrant
for the arrest of Law. and had the
chief of police at Grants Pass hold
him. It is supposed he was attempt
ing to board a moving freight train
to go to Grants Pass to have the
warrant served, as the- regular pas--senger
train was late.
The warrant was found op the mu
tilated body after his death.
Tho dead man's legs were cut off,
his head crushed and his brains In a
pool in tho dust, and it was neces
sary to gather up the remains in a
basket.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured
By local applications, as they cannot
reach tho diseased portion of the
ear. There is only ono way to cure
deafness, and that is by constitu
tional remedies. Deafness Is caused
by an Inflamed condition of tho mu-
cuous lining of tho Eustachian Tube.
When this tube Is lnflamod you have
a rumbling sound or Imperfect hear
ing, and when it Is entirely closed,
deafness Is tho result, and unless the
Inflammation can bo taken out and
this tube restored to its normal con
dition, hearing will bo destroyed
forever; nlno cases out of ten are
caused by Catarrh, which is nothing
but an Inflamed condition of tho mu
cous surfaces.
We will glvo Ono Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot bo cured by
Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for cir
culars, fee.

Chemistry has proved that tho 80
cloments aro not Independent, ulti

lstry togothor have rondored It prob
able that all tho olomonts aro simply
stages In tho evolution of matter
from simple Into complex forms, tho
organic life which exists on the
earth being simply the later end of
this process of evolution from tho
simplex toward tho complex. Thyslcs
has found a way of producing out of
ordinary atoms minute cathodo ray
particles which are much smallor
than atom, and has also found that
cortaln of uor heavlost elements are
In tho very act of spontaneously
transmuting thomselves Into simpler

as to whethor tho elements aro trans

cortaln of thorn, at least, aro trans
mutable; and it Is probable that In
nature's laboratories all Of thorn aro

Thus far he has Indeed learned how
to obtain cathodo my particles from
any of tho forms of matter; but ho
has not learned how to produco by
any of tho agencies at his command
any of tho 80 recognized elements
from any other. Ho has caught na

which wo aro ablo to produco on

modern Bclonco has opened out be
fore us a vlow which tho ancient
nlchomiBts novor had of tho wonder
ful oporntlons going on In nature's

day Just as Impotent ns thoy in tho
face of tho problem of tho transmu

know to bo wrapped up lu tho ntoms

1903, that tho disintegration of a

thermore, It Is extremely probable
that similar enormous quantities of
