Under the agreement, no acts of hostility can be committed within the waterway, nor within three marine miles of its en trance at either end, troops may not be landed exceot temporarily in cage of distress, war ships may not take on supplies for a cruise, nor may they re main in the waters of the canal more thau twenty-four hours, except in case of absolute necessity. In other words, this government is permitted to build, own and maintain the Nicaragua canal, but in case of war all nations shall be npon terms of strict equality in its use. IX MKMORIAM. MERRILL. At Deer Island, February 21st, ItHX), at 12:30 noon, Mrs. Eliza beth Merrill, widow of Joeeph Merrill, who preceded her to the spirit world many vears ago. Mrs. Merrill had been in poor health for some time. She had suffered much from rheumatism, and for a number of days before her death she suffered very greatly, the rheumatism having gone to the heart. Everything that medical skill and loving care and attention could devise was done for her, but all to no avail; her life work was finished and she paBsed to her rest surrounded by children and other loved ones. Mrs. Merrill was born March 6, 1820, in South Carolina. She was the daughter of Lemuel and Rebecca Freeman. She ' was married in 18-10 to Joseph Merrill at Chillicothe, Ohio, by Allen G. Tlinr inan. They moved to Illinois in 1840, where they remained nntil 1847, when they joined an emigrant train and with ox teams crossed the plains and came to Oregon. When they arrived at Fort Boise their teams gave out and Mrs. Merrill, who had two little children, came the rest of the way on horseback, carrying one child and" strapping the other to the saddle on another horse. When she arrived here she was tired almost to death and rejoiced to find any place to rest, although it was in a wild country thousands of miles from home. They spent their first winter at Linn ton, in a "rail pen," as they called them. One night her husband was gone and she had to keep a fire burning be fore the door all night to keep the big, gray wolves from coming in and devour ing the children. At another time when she and the little ones were alone the Klickitat Indians came into their cabin and frightened her and the little ones fearfully, as she expected they would all be murdered. They built a great fire near the house and went away. That night she extinguished the fire and barred the doors, then spent the night in fear and dread, expectiii(i the Indians to return. In those days food was hard to obtain. Mr. Merrill traded his wed ding coat to a man who expected to le married, for a few bushels of pota toes. There were but four white people in all this part of the country : Captain H. M. Knighton, was proprietor at St. Helen?, which was then called Plym outh, in honor of Plymouth Rock; Jos eph Caples lived at Columbia City, and Francis Perry and family in Yamhill county, afterwani moving near St. Hel ens. Mrs. Perry and Mrs. Merrill were bosom friends for fifty-two years. Jos eph Cunningham was located at War rior's Point. Indians were plentiful along the river. At that time there were but two or three houses in Port land. Oregon had a provisional govern ment, which was then composed of all west of the Rocky mountains and all north of the forty-second parallel. There was no communication with the East was only by private means, hence, one could write" a letter, not hoping to get an answer in lean than twelve months. The first mail came officially Jn September, 1800. Mrs. Merrill was a good, kind woman, loving mother rind an enteemed neigh bor. There are living of the children, Edwin, Norman and Alonzo A. Merrill, Mrs. Emma George and Mrs. Jennie McDonald. The family are assured of the loving sympathy of a large circle of friends. The funeral sermon was E reached by Rev. Ray Palmer, of the econd Baptist church, of Portland, whose wife is a niece of the deceased, her father, Dr. John B. Freeman, of Missouri, being the only surviving mem ber of the brothers and sisters of the deceased, four of the family having died in tlus last year and a half James Freeman, Jennie Collins, Miss Mary Freeman, of Colorado, and Mrs. Merrill, FARM POK KENT, Fairly well improved farm, one team nf horses, six cows, farming implements, . For further particulars apply to I Casper Zollkr, Goble, Oregon, ELIZABETH MEKKIIiL'8 FUNEH Ali BKKMON. The following wrmon was delivered by Rev. Ray rainier, pastor of the Scond Baptist church, Portland, upon the death of Mrs. Elizabeth Merrill, of Deer Island. Text: Rev. 14:13; "Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord, from hence forth vea saith the spirit, they rest from their labors and their works do follow theiu." Mr. Pointer spoke as follows: "The dead! The dead I Have you thought of all that means? The great majority of all who have lived are dead. A few days ago, in contemplating the words 'The world passeth away and the lust thereof, but he that doeth the will of God abidelh forever,' I wna walking through a cemetery. I saw the monu ments of the the rich and the humble slabs of the poor. I rend the epitaphs of those who had slept in the dust for lifty years; of those who had lived and laughed and loved as we do now. My visions widened and I saw procession after procession wending their way to the grave. I saw the earth one vast cemetery, and old ocean, poured around all, soeiiicd to chant tlio sad requiem above the sepulcher of the race. I saw the worlds passing away; 'the sun grow old, and the books of the judgment day unfold'. 1 heart! the belia of eiernity liuging. Thev were tolling the knell of fleparted worlds. All seemed passing away. I heard the tinsels singing in minor key: 'The world passoth away and the lust thereof,' and then I saw riding from the clouds, a great mul titude which no man could number. The angels changed the key and I heard them sing the hallelujah chorus of the sky, saying, 'These are they who have conie tip out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes and made them while in the blood of the Lamb!' " "tile sed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth,' that is, since Christ came, 'he has brought life and immortality to light!' "Before "the coming of Christ the world had a fearful dread of death. Materialism had settled like a pall upon the earth. Death was made somber with black plumes, and clouds of mys tery shrouded the grave. Though mighty, the arch-antrels wing was not strong enough to fly over the heights between eternity ami time and tell the story. To the" wisest men, euch as Plato, Aristotle and Socrates, the life beyond was a dim, shadowy existence. In" the ages gone by, Job had asked the question, 'If a man die, shall he live again?1 Adown the ages that question had echoed from century to century, as the human voice echoes from canyon to canyon, 'Live again? Live again?' In the fullness of time Christ came. 'He brought life and immortality to light.' He lived as a bi-world being. As one sees the mountains and forests reflected in the crystal Lake, so Jesus saw the things of time as the mere shadows of eternity. He lived in a world of tears, Bin and sorrow, but he saw just above it a world forever freed from all these. He saw humanity as a sea, tossed by tempest and storm., He saw just above 'the sea of glass, mingled with tire.' He was a citizen of two worlds. Though crucified and buried, on the third day he arose again. Forty days thereafter he ascended to the right hand of God throngh gates of pearl, but he left those gates wide open, and ever since the golden light of immortality has been streaming down. As I came down the Columbia this morning, in the splendid steamer, the clouds of fog huug low. obscuring the sun and the hills around. As I studied the wonders of immortality revealed in Christ, suddenly, almost, the clouds parted and rolled back over the moun tains and the sunbeams came pouring down and penetrated the windowB of gold, Vermillion and blue, and fell in many a varied hue npon ns. And, in it all I be held a symbol of "the sun of righteous ness pouring through gates of pearl,' the beautiful and blessed light of im mortality! Marvelous Indeed, was the teaching of this wondrous doctrine upon the Roman empire. First the aoostles of our Lord caught the inspiration and we hear them say, 'We know if the earthly house of our tabernacle were dissolved we have a building of God, a house not made with bands, eternal in the heav ens.' They defied death, crying, 'O death where is thy sting, O grave where is thy victory ? So soon as they began to proclaim it in the empire, king and peasant, master and slave alike, began to feel tiie dignity inherent in man and to stand in awe of man's responsibility to his God. Everything was chaneed ; law, society and human life. The mul titudes began to feel that God is more than a cook or a grower ol wheat and potatoes to feed the animals of a day; that he is the 'everlasting father, and man is made in his image.' No wonder the poet can now sing: "There is no death, The stars go down l rise upon a fairer shore, And bright in heaven's jeweled crown They'll Bhine forever more. "There is no death, The dust we tread shall change beneath the Bummer's shower, To golden grain, or luscious fruit, Or rainbow-tinted flower. "There is no death, An angel form walks the earth with si lent tread. He bears away our best loved things, And then we say, they're dead. "But ever near us though unseen, The dear departed spirits tread, For all the boundless universe is life, There are no dead." "But again, "they rest from their labors.' When I came in and saw the words 'At Rest' upon the white plate of the casket, I said, nothing could be more appropriate. Of all words in any language, there is none that means" more than that little word "Rest." When the roseate fingers of morn open the gates of day, mother says to the children, 'how did you rest last night, my dears?' The physician coincs and asks, 'how did the patient rest last night?' Rest means life and health. But surely in this life we find but little rest. The clouds that float above us, the billows that break upon our golden chores, and the stars that hurry onward, all speak to us as sym bols of the restlessness of man. Men travel the world around, they dig in the deep mines for gold, they enter the halls of learning and feast in palaces of pleas ure, seeking for rest, hone but Christ can give rest. The Master slept in the ships on storm-tossed Gallilee. The spray of the sea bedewed his hair, but he awakened not until the disciples, becoming fearful, cried out, 'Master, careBt thou not that we perish ?" And lie rose and rebuked the winds and said, 'peace! be still.' And there was a great calm. Today he stands upon the ships cf human life, and lifting his hand on high, speaks with imperial authority to the contending elements of life, saying, 'peRce, be still.' And then, extending arms of love to all men, he cries, 'come, come, come, all ye that are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. O take that sweet word, 'rest', and crowd it full of all that you can make it mean, and then multiply it by a thousand, and then believe "that your departed loved ones have entered into all of that. 'Their works do follow them.' Our departed sister and friend belonged to that most honored class known M pio neers. Do we realise bow much we owe them? Glorious heritage this, the (treat empire of the West. "Westward the star of empire takes its way,' and today it is poised above the glorious state's lieslde the sea. This is destined to be the giant pivot around which shall revolve the destinies of nation. From these shores shall sail the white-winged ships of commerce that shall keep the proud waves of the 'old Paeiiie' in per potuul motion. Here wo have purpliiist vinevarda which far surpass those of F.sclial, and golden wheat nVlds, incom parably greater than those of EBdralon, vast flint productions surpassing by far the orchards of Solomon. Should his toric llermou be placed beside our Im mortal Hood, his head would scarcely touch the hem of Hood's snowy gar ment. Hero our valleys are rich with fertility and our rivers flow singing to the seti. But how came us to poses so gootllv a heritago? Why, it is Ihv cause'our noble pioneers, bidding fare well to the old home and loved ones, came across plains and deserts, encoun tered wild beasts and wilder savages, crossed all but unsurmountable moun tains and treacherous streams, and came and laid the foundation of this empire beside the sea, in loneliness and tears and often in blood. Young man, when thonmeetosta pioneer, take thy shoes from thy feet, for ground on which thou standest is holy ground. But again, "her works do follow her, because she was n mother. Of all the sweet words of earth, none are sweeter than that word, 'mother.' How they live again in the lives of their children. But four years did my angel mother live after I saw the light, but those years were sufficient for her to impress her soul upon me as the die stamps the coin. Your mother was quiet and gentle in lifo, other women go forth to public service and their voices are heard plead ing eloquently that human wrongs may be righted; but who shall say which of the two is more of a queen 1 Is it not true that the 'band that rocks the cradle rules the world.' 'Her inlluence was Bilent, vou say? Are not the mightiest forces of the universe silent? Who hears the golden buckets of the sun as he dips the waters from the sea and pours them into the reservoirs of theskv? Who heas the chariot wheels of the earth as he rolls in his shining orbit arou nd the sun ? ' Her works shall follow her.' You will bear her voice in the zephyrs of spring, and see her eyes of blue in the sky above. In balls of memory shall be treasured all the lessons of truth and wisdom she in stilled. She will live in your better thoughts and butter selves through all the years to come, and as yon come to the evening of life as it was with her so it will bo with you, among the last names you will lisp will be 'mother.' Our departed sister wag not a member of any church, and yet she was; she belonged to that larger church com posed of all those who love our Lord Jesus Christ. She had not been bap tized beneath the crystal wave, and yet she hnd been baptiszed in the great sweet spirit of the Master. She was of that number of whom our Redeemer spoke when lie said, 'Other sheep have I which are not of this -fold, them also I must bring and there will be one fold and one shepherd.' She lived away out here in close touch with the great heart of nature, fche worshipped God sur rounded by majestic mountains, and where through the silver notes of crystal streams and the melodious voices of all nature, she looked up and worshipped, saying, 'The Lord is in his holy temple, let all the earth keep silence before him.' 'Messed are the dead which die in the Lord, yea saith the spirit they rest from their labors and their works do follow them."
