Haines Record. Mrs. W. H. Bennett, who has recently become one of our residents today visited the Sacred Heart Academy and was so well pleased with the excellence of the school that while calling later at the Observer office she could not help ment ioning the fact in most a complimentry terms. Circuit court has brought quite a num ber of people to town, either in the cap acity of jurors, witnesses or litigants. Un der present conditions the fall term of our circuit court should meet one montn later. It is quite a hardship for many of the farmers to be compelled to act as juors at this season of the year. In not a few cases it often happens that they are not through threshing. On Thursnay of last week Dr. N. Moli tor purchased thru W. K. Davis, the new $1,000 Weber Pianola Piano, used by Mr. Bruce at the recital given in the Cen tral church last Monday evening.

E. HACKMAIM, Phone Red 1381 Cor. Adams Avenue and Greenwood - 4.......II THRESHER BURNS Wm. Gillett. who brought his steam thresning outfit over from Umatilla county, suffered a loss Sunday evening while threshir.g on a farm near Nibley. The seperator and derrick was a total loss as well as about one half a stick of barley. They had just blown the whistle and part of the crew was in the act of leaving when the blaze was discovered. Aside from the personal less to the owners of the machine and grain, this will reduce the number of machines, which means those who had expected Mr. Gillett to do their threshing, will now have to look elsewhere, and as all of the machires are well supplied with orders, these may have their harvesting delayed. HUE PEACHES 1 J. W. McAlister left the Observer, off ce a box of as fine peaches 'as any one couL desire, either from appearance or flavor. This is his first crop which con sisted of about forty boxes, but from this time on he certainly will have quite a surplus over and above home require ments.
