She had suffered with in flucnzu some time before and had not fully recovered The funeral was held Tuesday afternoon at Doreua and in terment was in the A. F. & A. M I. O. (>. F. cemetery here. Rev. A. R. Spear ow, o f the Presbyterian church here, officiated. The family home could but partially accommodate the number who were present and the floral tributes were magnificent. Miss Kirk was born at Doreua O cto ber 1, 1904, and was aged 17 years, 7 months. She hid lived her entire life at Doreua, but was well known here, and died in thi house where she was born. She was to have graduated thi-' year from Doreua high school. The father conducts a general merchandise business and is postmaster at Doreua and Miss B« rtha had for several years assisted her father in the business. She was a member o f the Presbyterian church. Surviving relatives arc the parents; a sister, Mrs. John Holstroin, of Mar- cola, aud two brothers, John Wayne Kirk and Emit Kirk, both o f Doreua.

AUTO PARK CAMP IS NOW OPEN FOR SEASON The auto park camp has been opened for the seusou, the fee this year to be 59 cents for the first day and 25 cents for each subsequent day. 8. W. Boyd has beeu reemployed as care- taker and has been deputized as a special policeman. He will also have charge o f the city j»ark proper. The city park board has given the chamber of commerce full authority to go- ahead with the conduct o f an auto camp. The chamber ^ia» appointed the following committee to have charge: T. G. Budtell, Omer Moore, A. C. Spriggs, Mrs. A. YV. Kime and Mrs. G. B. Pitcher. Holland Spam Arabia ~ Hawaii Scotland - - ■ 1 r 1 - 1 ■ : CHAMBER OF COMMERCE IS READY TO PROSECUTE FOR SCATTERING OF RUBBISH The chamber o f commerce pro poses to take steps to stop the dumpiug o f rubbish upon the public highways and requests those know ing of rubbish being so dumped to notify Secretary Andersou, Presi dent Kom or arty member o f the board o f trustees. Complaints may also be left with The Sentinel. The chamber recently paid tho ex penses o f having the rubbish moved from the location o f the new bridge north o f the eity and since that time more rubbish has been dumped there. Considerable rubbish also has been dumped near tho Sixth street bridge. The members o f the board o f directors feel that anyone so devoid o f pride in tho appearance o f the public highways should bo dealt with according to law and that is what is now proposed. MINING EDITION OF YEARS AGO IS INTERESTING Many o f Those Prominent Quarter o f Century Ago Are Yet Among Community Leaders. Charles Adams O. L. Niehols Joe Smith Charles Beidler Tho Sentinel is indebted to O. W. McFarland for n copy o f a special mining edition o f The Bohemia Nug get, printed in 1899, 23 years ago. The edition was historical ami biographical, as well ns a booster edition for the district, which then probably was at the height o f its activity. Speaking historically it is related that the district was discovered in 1863 by James (Bohemia) Johnson, who was being pursued for killing an Indian. Evidently the excitement caused by his discovery o f gold led to the killing o f the Indian being forgot ten, as it seems that ho remained in the district aud became active iu oper ations ou Steamboat, where his find was made, which also is the only place ill the district where placer mining has been followed. The Knott mill, which still is iu the district, although unused for many years and now probably rusting in a deserted building, was taken iu 10 years later. The camp was abandoned in 1877 but sprang into renewed life iu 1890. The Musick mine apparently is the only one to have been named for its discoverer, James A. Mustek, although others apparently were given first names o f members o f families interested in them. Many properties ure mentioned in this special edition which now are never heard o f, but those which remain prominent were prominent at that time. It is quite evident that many who later became prominent residents of Cottage Grove, some o f whom still live here, were attracted here by tbu dis covery of gold. Among names mentioned, many be ing o f those yet residents o f this eity and all o f whom will be remembered by those who have been interested in the district, arc the follow ing: J. U. (Bohemia) Sharp, Joseph Kennedy, Jack Klopfensteiu, J. E. Young, o . F. Adams, Bird Farrier, J. W. (Squire) Vaughn, O. G. Gilbertson, Frank Jor dan, L. F. Wooley, J. W. Gowdy, James Hemenway, F. J. Hard, Heluius W. Thompson, Stocks & Harlow, Edd Jenks, A lf Walker, Gettys & Bruud, John Nokes, W. W. Cochran, Charles VunDcnburg, D. T. Awbrey, Robert and X. H. Vcatch, A. H. Spare, Ben Lurch, Dave Rissue, G. B. Pitcher, R F. Martin, J. I. Jones, Arch l ’iper, W. W. Hawley and B. E. Hawley. Many of these retain their interests iu tht eump and are hopeful that through thi new development they will realize ujsiii their hopes o f years.

The session lasted about three hours, most o f which time was spent in a discussion of what the budget meeting could do and could not do and what would happen if it did or did not do what it could or could not do. After considerable thrashing around, $2000 was added to the budget to be applied in taking up the $10,000 bond ed indebtedness incurred when the present high school building was erect ed. The amount o f $2000 for a commcr cial course was not a part o f the orig inal budget and it was found that this amount could not legally be added to ] the levy, after $2009 had already been added, or, at least, those present seemed to be satisfied that such was the cast*. Though knowing that only one of the amounts could be added, the meeting voted to add both, but Drops Dead While at Home Alone upoii a vote to decide which o f tlie and Faithful Airedale Guards two was favored, the commercial Body o f Master. course lost by about 10 votes.

It may be snp|s>sed that iued the oil well there and report that the struggle between affection and pride was long and severe before the Earl a pocket o f oil was struck at 350 feet could make up his mind to ally himself to the humble object o f his disinterest and below this a short distance a 2 ed regard, but love finally triumphed. foot vein of coal was passed through.

Eddy starts the annual big egg contest with a specimen mea suring 7Vj inches by 9 Vi inches in circumference. The proud mother is o f the White Leghorn strain aud has acquired unusual proficiency in her line o f business. This example o f what can be done by the exer tion o f a little extra energy weighs four ounces. — the doctor who answers a hurry call with the greatest possible speed is more valuable than a physician o f equal skill who drives up to the patient’s door at his own conven ience. Service counts. It is worth money. Who is there who doesn’t agree with this geueral principle! And doesn't it apply also iu the buying of merchandise» — the progressive nierehaut in your own trailing center gives service along with the goods. He has a se lection of merchandise continually in stock. You d ou ’t have to wait. When you eater the store yon are able to see the article itself iu which you are interested. You see it with your eyes, feel it with your fingers; note its actual size, shape and color; compare it with other goods at different prices, and, if it is what you want, take it away with you. — if you have questions to ask, you are given an explanation ou the spot. The answer given your first question may suggest another query. It is answered within hulf a minute o f the first interrogation. No time is lost. You benefit from the deal e r ’s practical knowledge, from the fact that ho is on the ground and ready at all times to see to it per sonally that the artiele he has sold yon gives satisfaction. —the wise buyer will not forget that such matters have a dollars and cents value anil should enter into the reckoning whenever a price i is being made.—-From The Oregon j IS 1 Farmer.
