Hunt, well-known pioneer Tesidcnt of this section, and builder of the Hunt road, now the Pendleton Pasco Nortern Puclflo branch, la dead. He died Saturday at nla homo at 811 Irving street, Portland. The follovr iag account of his life and work is from the Oregon Journal: Born In New York in 1842, he start ed west when' only 16. When they reached Denver, Mr. Hunt's com panion accepted a job shingling, but Hunt refused employment, declaring he had determined to start Into busi ness for himself. For a time he found nothing One day he mot by the merest ehanee the owner of two yoke of oxen who had become too 111 to continue his work. Hunt hired the oxen for u dollar per day per yoke. Then he found a wagon which he paid a dollar a day for. Began Teaming Business. In this way he began his business of teaming between The Dalles, Boise and Ogden, a business which soon ' reached considerable proportions and formed the basis for his fortune. Af ter coining to Oregon Mr. Hunt built More than &00 miles of the Oregon Railroad & Navigation and Northern Pacific Hues. Through his work much of the then Ueaert region was opened up for exploitation and settle ment. , Mr. Hunt built and operated sev eral short lines of railroad in tho vi cinity of Walla Walla. His last ac tive enterprise was the conducting of a largo farm. Four years ago, after If years' residence In tho vicinity of Portland, he was taken ill and never left his bed again. He Is survived by bis wife and four children, Charles W. aad Guy L, Hunt of Half Way, Ore.; C. C. Hunt of Nyssa, Ore., and Lily M. Hunt, Portland. The burial will be In Hiverview cemetery, and the funeral services will be conducted from Fmley's par lors tomorrow at 1 o'clock, Rev. Mr. Chrlvtman officiating. I juuliKnrv Aivouiil of Life. Bancroft's "Chronicles of the Build ers," ays of Mr. lfunt in the course of a long and laudatory account of his life: "Nor was his mental less than his physical vigor. Hjs fibre was that out of which men are made, and ho pos sessed the laudable ambition to vital ize It. In his ar.y manifestations of a masterful spirit, accompanied by un KUui strength, endurance and tena- city of purpose, the man was prefig ured In the boy. Hu w;is pred:sposed to toil doubtless by predilection deriv ed from a thrifty, laborious ancestry, but his environment fixed tho im pulse and made occupation and desid eratum nnd the essential condition of his being, lie learned how to do by doing, and if o"e learn.- thoroughly the lesson of labor whit other is there for him to yearn T "it is speaking within the bounds to say that no one man hus contribut ed more to the development nnd pro gress of the northwest than George W. Hunt; no in;m is more intimately Identified with its welfare. "Possessing wide mental rango and vigor of Ideas supplemented by .a faith practically unlimited and all his fac ulties deriving life and form from an Intense and t.reless creative force of Intellect and physique he could but plan and execute on a large scale, lie prized tho maxim: 'He that rules his M'int is greater t'aun he who lakes a city.' " WON NOMINATION BY RinifTLIXG HIS RIVAL Washington "That.i what elect ed me to congress." remarked Rep resentative Richard W. Austin of Tennessee, wh.-n lie K"t Into a con fidential mood and is" tempted to tell some iiew-f.iund friend a chapter of i his life. ! .As ho spe.-.ks he reaches mil for h s j leather waiiet nnd evlra Is Hum it a j clipping from a' Washington newspn- per bearing date a year or so past. "I I hiivv one of these clippings framed on the wall of my office her-," continues! Austin, "nnd another at home." j "But the piece doesn't seem to he ' about you nt all." ohserves trio per- j son who Is let in on the ground floor j of the Austin life history. , "That's the beauty of It." vpltes ' the Tenn.-ssceun. with enthusiasm. ! "There isn't a line about mo In the , whole piece. You. wil'. not ice: how- ever, that it is about my predecessor, ' Nathan Hale, tho gentleman who got Into congress on the rorord of his an cestor, the martyred schoolmaster, it j simply takes a few grabs out of the biography, that Mr. Hale wrote him- i self for til" congi esslonul directory, and holds It up to ridicule. "Well vbeii I suddenly became pos sessed of the notion that I would like to come to congress, I did not find myself very well equipped. I did not pretend to be an orator do not now and n was not likely to beat Halo out for the nomination by entering Into a Joint debate or doing any spell binding stunts. Then, one clay. I got hold of this piece about Hale. I thought It wns ono of hc funniest . things I had ever read. Possibly If It had been written about me it would not have looked so funny. 'Just what I've been looking for," I exclaimed to myself, and took It with mo to tho next republican meeting that I at tended. When my turn come to got up and spout I simply took out this newspaper clipping nnd read It. Then I sat down. The audience yelled It self hoarse. I had made the biggest kind of a hit I used that clipping until the nominations were made, with such good effect that I had Mr. Hale SERUM IS DISCOVERED TO FIGHT INFLUENZA London. Research work on a new treatment for influenza, Interrupted during the summer months by a dearth of lnflluenza patients, has re cently been taken up again at St. Mary's hospital, Paddlngton. The new treatment, which consists of inject ing h'ypodermlcally a sterilized liquid solution of Influenza gorms, Is very similar to the vaccine treatment for glandular tuberculosis and acne, which under tho directions of Sir Al roth "Wright, have been In use for some months at St. Mary's. j The bacilli are artificially grown on , a suitable serum or broth. When the ! required strength and reduplication of -tho bacilli have been obtained all fur-' ther germ activity Is prevented by ; heating the culture broth until the . bacilli are killed. The resulting so- 1 lutlon, which consists of dead bacilli j nnd the toxins or poisons which they , have formed during growth, Is then j standardized so that the physician can I accurately gauge the strength of his dose. The new treatment Is based on the theory that recovery from any infec tious disease such as influenza results from the killing off of the attacking germs and the neutralization of their poisons by anti-toxins, which nature automatically forms in the system as soon as the fight begins. If the toxins overwhelm the anti toxins the germs flourish and multi ply, while more and more poisons are produced until the patient succumbs; if nature's anti-toxins are the strong er the attacking germs are gradually killed off, the poisons are neutralized' and recovery ensues. Tho artificially prepared Influenza serum, when Injected into the tissues, causes nature hurriedly to put forth an extra supply of antl-toxins, and so j helps to put an ena to the disease. The bacilli contained In the serum having been killed by heat before the vaccine Is Injected no further poison production can take place, the doc tor absolutely controlling the amount of toxins. Introduced. While very promising results were obtained with the new treatment at St. Mary's last year, It has been im possible to take up the work again this winter until the past fortnight, owing to the unusual freedom from Influenza London has been enjoying. MUST NOT PLOW GRAVES. Washington Supreme Court Holds Burying Ground of Pioneers Sacred Spot. j Olympia. The defiling touch of the : plow will hereafter not disturb the sleep of 40 Washington pioneers who were burled in a nound In Lewis county, between 1864 and 1894. j The supreme court has decided that John Hutchinson of that county must cease to raise crops on the mounds and has granted the injunction asked ; by descendents of the pioneers to pre- j vent further desecration and allow j them to visit the cemetery. I The court said: "Sacred memories cluster around the burial spot, unkempt as It is said to be, and Its desecration shocks the moral sense of mankind and brings Just reproach upon Its author." In 1S?8 some of the fences about, tho graves crumbled. Hutchinson cleared the rest away, burned them, ( removed the gravestones and plowed up the land. Are Yon a Good Shot?

The "Book of Ironies" promises to be a new social terror, if the idea originating with G. Bernard Shaw, catches on. It was started years ago by the distinguished dramat ist, who decided to probe romance to the very core. The book consists of a double-column scrap book. On one side are pasted announcements of the be trothals, marriages and anecdotes of celebrities. The opposite column Is left blank until some years have elapsed. Then another cutting, either from divorce trials, newspaper state ments or written comments supplies the ironical epilogue. For instance, an 1894 cutting al ludes to the marriage of J. M. Barrie and Mary' Ansell. They are extreme ly happy. The novelist-dramatist en joys nothing better than to He on the Thames bank using his wife's Hair pins as pipe cleaners. May their happiness Increase with the flight of years." Against this is pasted the notice of the recent decree nisi. Other cuttings refer to the Marl boroughs. Others describe the bril liance of certain artists and authors and an Ironical epilogue tells of their death through drink or excess or their unexpected suicide.
