Silver Lake's Sad flemory.
From the Portland Telegram.
Silver Lake is an eastern Oregon
town whose people have not celo
brated Christmas for sovon yoars,
according to Z. M. Brown, n Crook
County stockman, who has jiiBt re
turned from that part of Lake
j County. An expensive monument
standing in the village oomotery, ho
says, tolls how forty-fivo residents
of Silver L-ako met a horrible doatb
by fire through the ttpsotling of a
coal oil lamp at a Christmas-tree
festival seven years ago. That
number of persons taken out of a
small community loaves vaoanotos
in the homes that will not be filled
in this genoration. Silver Lake
will not permit a saloon HoonBe.to
be tBStted since that evont., bo it is
the ono absolutely "dry" town, in
the state. A drunken man over
turned the lamp Christmas eve,
1895, that resulted in a tragody
whioh caused rt thrill of horror to
pass over tho entire northwest 'nnd
oast the county of Lake into deepest
gloom.
