Waa Well Known Here. A.
Rev. Eados, a well known character
In this city, where he owns property,
but who recently was taken to Spo
kane to be placed In a home for in
firm, died this morning- after a short
but fatal Illness.
Information reached here yesterday
that no hopes were entertained that
he would survive the day. but night
came on and his tenacious life i
fused to leave him. Even through the
night he was a patient sufferer, death
coming to relieve his pain, finally.
The Observer is unable to announce
funeral arrangements, except that the
remains will be brought to La Grande
tomorrow morning in all likelihood,
and the funeral arrangements will be
made at that tima. .

corssed the plains to Oregon.' When
they reached the present sfta of La
Grande, they made camp for two
nights where the Slater residence In
South La Grande, now Is, and passed
on over the Blue mountains and the
Cascades to Willamette valley, settling
In what Is now Yamhill county. He
remained at home until he was nearly
S years of age, when all at once, he
became Impressed with the necessity
of1 obtaining an education. Prior to
this time ha could only read In a very
limited way. He had accumulated
some stock and these he disposed 'of
and entered school, and did not stop
untl latter he had graduated from
the Willamette university. After leav
ing school he moved to Grant county
nd taught school for quite a while.
He waa the last principal of the
Blue Mountain university, and, for the
past 16 year or more called La Grande
his home, and still had a home In

years ago, while handling wild horses
he was kicked and suffered a fracture
of both legs, from -which he never
