"Say. what 'do you know about this?" he ejaculated, a he threw open the door. "About what?" was the polite In quiry. "I found my car." waa the pleaded response. "Shucks!

"A more competent, honest, loyal and true friend no man could have." This is David M. Dunne's opinion of Max Ramsey who died recently In Mo lullu. Mr. Dunne was collector of In ternal revenue In Portland for 15'4 years, and Mr. Ramsey was one of his assistants during the greater part of that time. In a letter to The Kn terprise, Mr. Dunne says: "I received a message on Friday, the 1 1th inst., from Molalla from the Ramsey family Informing me that Mr. Ramsey had died suddenly. I wus shocked to hear same, as I received a letter from him a week previous, asking mc to come out some time later on a fishing trip. When funeral took place unfortunately I was serving on Jury and could not attend. "I appointed Mr. Ramsey as field deputy a few months after I took my position as collector of Internal reve nue. He served in that capacity for several years and upon resignation of George H. Shinn as chief deputy (whf) resigned on account of h!s hparlng), I appointed him in his p'ace. He oc cupied that position until I waa super ceded from office. Jlevenue Agent Tioulden took occasion to state after transfer was made, that the Portland office was at the head of list In Wash ington for efficiency. In replying I took occasion then to state that it was due entirely to the chief deputy and the splendid office force who were under him. A more 'competent, hon est, loyal and true friend than Max namsey no man could have, during our close intercourse of fifteen years. "I wish to take this method to ex tend to his good wife and son my heart felt sympathy during their trouble. And for my old friend Max. None knew him but lo love him; none knew him but to praise him." PURE BLOOD.
