We cannot help saying that it Is our firm conviction that If modern methods of farming and fruit raising wore in troduced here, we should see as fine fruit as Hood River or Medford can boast of.

The ever patriotic liberty loving Indies of this place nnd vicinity nre planning to give a dinner and supper at the opera house next Saturday, the proceeds to go toward supporting the Yoncaila band. It is to be hoped that there will be a liberal patronage as a band Is a valuable asset to a city and Is quite an expensive medium and should receive the undivided support of each and every citizen.

Brown started with four dogs, but only landed here with three. One of the stipulations was that he should have one of the dogs with which he started when arriving at Los Angeles, other wise he'd lose the wager.

It wns In; the fall of 190!) that the fatal disease ; slezed upon her that so relentlessly I tore her from the agonizing hearts ! still hoping against hope, down to the latest moment when the silver , cord was loosed. All thnt human1 love and tenderness could do to re- I tain the Imprisoned spirit In Its frail tenement was In vain. From Ashland they bore her back to the scenes so loved In youth and laid her down to sleep beside the dear sister and brother, playmates of her childhood, who had long since found' their rest. She was burled In the! Burt cemetery on the hill, February i 4. 1910, Itev W. A. Smtck speaking j the words of comfort. j She entered the Christian life when I scarcely more than a child, and throuirh all tne cnanges roiiowiug in her checkered life she ever turned her race toward the heavenly city, trust ing, trusting to the end.

Wilbur Brown and Temple Brown: four sis tors, Lillian Brown, Mrs. May Hedg peth. Myra Brown and Violet Brown. "We may not wake her from that peaceful sleep; All the heart's anguished cries are vain. Though sleepless eyes tho long night vigils keep, And llfe'B long weary stretch seems hut ono dream of pain. "Ah, could we wake her If we might; Hush on her lips the glad trimuph and song, Call from the henvenly hills of light To toil nnd strife amid earth's surging throng. "Nay, nay, poor hearts, forget your tears; Look up. for upward through the starry dome In patience wail the surely passing years; Walt for tho meeting in our Fath er's .home." M.
