(Joseph Herald.)
Mrs. E. Hoist has returned from a
two weeks' visit .with her husband in
La Grande, where he is doing some
mason work by contract. - .
Pete Wilson, a former resident of"
Imnaha, won the first prize in the
bucking contest in the Rodeo or Fruit
ier fair at Klamath Falls last month.
About a dozen of our citizens deer
hunted this week in various directions
from Joseph. Up to the hour of goir
to press we have not heard of any fa
talities among either the four legged
or two legged animals.
After a long sickness with diabetes,
the death of John William Legore
occurred at his home in Joseph on
August 5. The burial took place to
day in the Alder Slope cemetery, the
funeral services being held at the M.
i E. church at 10 o'clock by Rev. Miller.
I The deceased was born to Mr. and
Mrs. Henry Legore near Joseph on
June 21, 1892. He never enjoyed ro
bust health, and a few weeks ago his
mother took him on a trip to visit rel
atives in Union county and also in
' l:laho, with the hope that the change
would benefit him, and returned home
' only four days before his death.
i The young man was a member of
the Presbyterian church and was much
, respected by all who knew him. He is
survived by the parents and one sis
ter, Mrs. Frank Marr, who have the
sympathy of the community in their
sad affliction.
t One of the most severe rain storms
ever seen in Wallowa county, occurred
i Tuesday. In fact it was so nearly a
cloudburst that a pin could not be
stuck between the difference. Some
damage was done to the hay north of
here and to the east.

services for the past 23 years as city

Remarkable Cure of Disentery.
"I was attacked with dysentery
about July 15th, and used the doctor's
medicine and other remedies with no
relief, only petting worse all the time.
I was unable to do anything and my
weight dropped from 145 to 125
pounds. I suffered for about two
months when I was advised to use
Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diar
rhoea Remedy. I used two bottles of
it and it gave me permanent relief.'

Expenses at Pendleton Low.
Salem, Aug. 7. "Though we fig
ured that the maintenance cost for the
Eastern Oregon Insane Asylum would
average $22 per capita a month, we
have been able so far to maintain it
at less than $20." said Dr. W.'D. Mc
Nary, superintendent of the institu
tion, who is here .conferring with the
members of the state board of control.
"While I am not able to recall just
what it Has cost us up to the present
to maintain the institution, I know it
1 has been considerably belov? per
cntiita in fact, I do not believe it has
reached $19. Of course we cannot say
until the end of the year just what it
will cost, but unless something arises
in the next six months which we can
not now foresee it is going to be con
s.uerauiy less than 22.
"Contracts were awarded by the
state board of control for three build
onsrruetion work will be
commenced at once. We are making
a number of improvements about the
institution, and getting it into an ex-
e::t condition. We have about
350 patients now and though we ex
pected trouble from a number of sourc
es we have. had none thus far.' While
it has been hot, none of the patients !
have suffered. Patients who were
committed to the asylum at Salem
from Eastern Oregon were particular
ly glad to get back to the section from
which they were committed and ex
press themselves as well satisfied."
