Professor Looney waa absent from school Wednesday, having been called to attend the wedd ng of his oousin, the daughter of Senator John Looney, of Jefferson, Marion county. Tbe cer emony took place at 10 o'clock at the family residence, conducted by Rev. J, W. Bpangler, formerly of tbe Hills . boro M. K. church, and in the pres ence of about 100 person , all relatives. This office acknowledges the receipt of a very fine pleoe of cke. A quiet wedding took place at the home of the bride, at the Taylor place on Sauvics Island Wednesday, the con tracting parties beiug Mr. Florence E, Whitney and James Godfrey. Only near relatives and a few intimate friends were present. In the eveniug a party of friends from St. Helens went over to congratulate the newly married couple and spent a most lcasanl evening in a musical and so cial way. The community join in wishing Mr. snd Mrs. Godfrey abun dant happiness and prosperity. There are several well known crooks in and about St. Helena of late who are being too closely watched for the convenience of ther intended pur poses. On Tuesday night of last week about 3 o'clock two of tbem were seen by the oity police to try the door of Muokie Bro.'s store several times. When accosted by the police they msdo some flimsy siouse and tried to run in a bluff on him, in which they failed.' The police as well as the pub he know these parties and are watch ing their actions very closely. This gang should se k other fields for their villainous pursuits than St. Helens. W. J. Rice, acoompanied by Mrs. Rice and the St. Helens glee oiuo. went down to Canaan last Sunday to attend the republican meeting an nounced for that day. Mr. Rioe was the speaker billed for the ocossion, but owing to the lateness of arriving and the long distance from home his remarks were somewhat abbreviated. However, there was a fair audience, who listened attentively and with in terest to the soeeohes from the differ- Last Sunday's Orogonian, in speak' ing of the death of Mrs. Thomas on Sauvies island, says that Deputy Coro ner tiorace 8. Tuthill (of Multnomab county) made a trip for the purpose of learning the cause of the sudden death but that be ascertained that death was oaused from accidental shooting and there was no necessity for an inquest. It probably would be just as correct to say that he found out that he was out of his county and that he could do nothing In Columbia county. One of tbe most appalling accidents in tiie history of Washington railroads occurred Monday morning at the point where the Great Northern railroad crosses the Wenatcbee river the sec ond time. The bridgeover that stream oollapsed while a construction train wass crossing. Seven men were killed outrlglit.five fatally injured, and six others were so seriously hurt that some of them may die. The officials of the Northern Psciflo railroad were inspecting their roadbeds and bridges in this county last Satur day. FOR PURE FOOD. loadable Action bjr Board of Health Vpon the Baking Powder Question, Boards of health can engage in no more commendable action than the examination of our food supply and the instruction of the public as to those articles which are to be found Jure and wholesome snd which, there ore, consumers should use. Actiou of this kind with tbe baking powders is particularly opportune. There are quantities of baking pow dors in tho market to use which is cer tain detriment to the health of tbe consumer. They are made from alum, or improperly compounded from other chemicals so that they leave a strong il kali no residuum in the food. Many of these powders, having proved un salable iu the Eust, have been collect ed by their manufacturers from the dealers with whom' they were left on commission, aud shipped to the Pacific coast. In the effort to gain a foothold in this market unscrupulous manufao turers of these cheaply made, low grade baking powders, have indulged in extravagant statements both with reference to their own and other brands, claiming the most improbable indorsements (or theirs, and defaming the brand boat known and longest known on the Pscirlo coast. The following extrscis from the re ports of some our well known health uthoritles will be ol particular in terest: The Seattle board of health says 'Finding iu aualysis lhat it is made of the highest grade of cream of tartar and bicarbonate of soda, and is en l i rely free from any adulteration, we heartily recommend tbe Royal Baking Powder lor its great atrengtu, purity and wbolesomeness." Tbe Tacoma board of health says "In our judgment the Royal is tbe best and strongest baking powder bo- fore the public. We confidently rec ommend it became of its purity and care of preparation. S. 1 t a a a a . . Tbe Bpokaue Jity ooara oi neaitn says : "There is certainly no baking powder known to us equal to the Hoya for strength and uniform quality, and we recommend it lor its absolute pu ritv and wholesomeness." The board ol nsaltlt ol the Uity ol San Francisco, alter extended tests. said of the Royal, that "it is absolutely pure and healthful, composed of the best ingredients, ol - the highest strength and character the health officer of Los Angeles reported that it was "clearly demonstrated and proven that the Royal Baking Powder is pure and wholesome, and that it stands, as far as strength and purity are con corned, at the head of the bakine powders of theUuited States;" while the state chemist of California, Prof. Rising, found the Royal superior in strength ana purity to all other brands.

Mrs. Mary Thomas' Bnddea Death on Ban Tie Inland Last Friday about S o'clock p. m., a fatal accident occured to Mrs. Mary Thomas, widow of the late Capt. Isaac Thomas, at their farm about midway of Sauvies Island on the Columbia side. Mrs. Thomas and her only child, Alexander, were out in tbe yard, the latter having a new pistol with which he waa practicing. After he had shot three tjmes, his mother asked to try his new pistol. He handed it to her, saying at the same time that be would get a larger target for ber, and turned to go into the bouse. No sooner was his back turned than be heard a re port, and, turning, he saw his mother falling. He at once summoned the hired men. and later Dr. Pan ton, of Portland. The unfortunate lady did not speak and died in a few minutes. On examination it was found that the ball ranged upward from the neck, severing the carotid artery and lodged in tbe brain. Deceased was very well known along the river and in La Cen ter, where she resided for a long time, while her late husband was owner and captain of tbe steamer Lucea Mason. Following is the verdict of tbe coro ner's jury : We, the bgally empaneled Jury, sum moned In ths cas of Mn. Mary Tbomai, deceased, do find that death wai caused by a bullet wound of a SB-caliber Smith Wcswn revolver in the nanai or in ae ceased about 2 o'clock, on Friday, October 21, 1892, on Sauvies island, on tbe premlMS of said deceased.

This quiet oity received a shock on Tuesday which will not soon be for gotten. On Lake river, almost oppo site St. Helens and about two miles from here, is situated the rock quarry of Joseph Norton, though his men all reside in St. Helens. Mr. Norton, about 2 o'clock, was engaged in de positing a blast in the solid rock, and had put in 60 pounds of powder. He had some difficulty in getting the pow der to penetrate through the drill hole, so he took a metal tamping spoon and endeavored to force it through. Tbi was his mistake, for as soon as the metal came in contact with tbe atone it produced a spark which ignited the powder. The unfortunate man stood over the blast, while two companions one by the name of Jerry McCarty and the other Benjamin Roberts were on either side of him. The upheaval struck Norton full In the stomach and chest, throwing him several hundred feet in midair and falling to tbe ground 115 yards from where he started. His associates who were able to do so, ran to his rescue) but found bis body msn gled and bruised beyond recognition his bones being broken in small pieces snd one side of bis face entirely gone, leaving the teeth exposed, Tbe two other men were seriously hurt, one of tbem having bis eyes and face full ot powder, and the second waa terribly bruised about the bead and body and lay unconscious for some time. They were at once brought to St. Helens and their injuries dressed by Dr. Cliff. The remains of Mr. Norton were brought over later in the evening and placed in a casket and made ready for burial. The funeral ceremony took place at Masonio hall Wednesday at S o olock, conducted by Rev. McCart, of Portland University, after which the remains were interred in Germany Hill cemetery. Mr. Norton was a native of Liestershire, England, and had been in this country Ave years. He was 24 yeara ol age. The funeral was at tended by a la rye number of block' makers aud other friends. He waa i young man who was highly esteemed in the community and bad hosts of wsrm personal frieuda and few if any enemies, We laid him to rest tn the robs that he wove. So sno tints and white, bv tbe flnrersof love And long may be live tn tb hearts ol the just, While softly bis body shall sleep in the oust. Thou art rone to tbe grave I bnt we will not dopiors mee, Though sorrow and darkness encompass the tomo: Thy Savior has pass'd through ths portals before thea. And the lamp of Hit love is thy guide througn tne gioorn. Thou art gone to the gravel we no longer hehoid thee. Nor tread the rough path of the wurld by thy side; But the wide arms of Mercy are spread to enfold thee. And sinners may die, for the Sinless bas aieai Thou art gone to the gravel and Its man sion lorsasina . Perchance thy weak spirit In fear llnger'd But theurtld rays of Paradise besm'd on thv waking. And the sound which thou heardst was the seraphim s song. Thou art gone to the gravel bat we will not deplore inee ; Whose God was thy ransom , tby guardian and guide; He gave thee. He took tbee, and Be will restore thee, And death bos no sting, for the Savior bas died. Colambns Day at Stewart Point. Stiwaxt Poirt, Oct. 22, 1892.
