BRIEF STORM OF NO EFFECT Wind of 26 Miles an Hour Gets Official Label of "Unusual;" Copious Rain Descends. The Roseburg weather bureau station last night reported an "un usual" wind. It Is the only office maintained by the department that reports a wind of less than 40 miles an hour as being "unusual." but in Roseburg whenever there Is a breeze of more than 25 miles nn hour it takes the classification that California has made famous. This is necessary because only once since the weather bureau was established in Roseburg more than BO years ago has there been a w'nd velocity of 40 miles an hour. The year of the "big wind" was in 1878. when in December there was a 40 mile "gale" recorded.

The commission informed a Roseburg's Lone Building Of 79 Years Cabin Home of Aaron Rose, Founder of City, Only Structure Visible to rims W. Dillard, who Came to Douglas County With His Parents in 1852. (By GLENN RADABAUGH) THERE Is probably no person in TiouRlas county who knows more about (he history of Rose buiK nor who is known better in Roseburit than Finis W. Dillard. Mr. Dillard can probably also claim the distinction of being the only man now living in this city who was here when there was only one small cabin that of Aaron Rose, the founder of Rose burg. His father, John Dillard. bought the 640 acres which includes most of the present Dillard valley com munity, for the "stupendous" sum of $50. The community received Its name from this pioneer when the railroad station was establish ed there. John Dillard and his wife, Jane Gray Dillard, crossed the plains in 50 and came to Douglas county In '52. They started from Spring field, Mo. Kinis Dillard was 18 months old at the time and did his first walk ing while on that long trip. He was born in the year of the gold rush, 1SI9.

In fact they lived on the old home place all of the time until their deaths. John Dillard died in ixa, his wife preceding him in death by exactly 10 years. Recalls Lone Cabin Flnl3 Dillard remembers dis tinctly the first time he saw Rose burg. That was 79 years ago. One small cabin was the sole building in the "community." The occupant and builder of that cabin was Aaron Rose, the founder of Rose burg and for whom the city was named. The little log cabin was located down back of where the Liberty theatre now stands. He was here before the railroad was put through in '72. For ten years Roseburg was the southern terminus of the railroad. In 1SS2, Mr. Dillard recollects, the rails were extended to join the road which had been built into north ern California. On account of one kind of delay and another the ac tual joining of the two segments was not completed until 18112.
