Will Build Concrete
Pumping Station
The Deschutes Pewer Co. will be-1
gin the erection in a few days of a (
new concrete building to be used
for a pump house. It will be.
erected north of the present power
house. A new 800-gallon centri
fugal fire pump and a 200-gallon j
Triplex Gould pump will replace:
the steam pumps now in use. The '
old pumps will not be dismantled,
however, but will be kept ready for
use in case of an emergency.
It will take a 75-horse power di
rect connected motor to handle the
800-gallon fire pump and a 25 h. p.
for the 200-gallon. Work on the
new building will be started within
10 days and the new pumps will be
working by the first of the year.
It was the intention of the Power
Company to install the pumps
sooner but the machinery could not
be obtained.
An Old Pioneer
Passes Away
James Lawson, an old Oregon
pioneer, died last Friday, October

85 years. He was buried Sunday
at the Mill creek cemetery.
James Lawson was born in Whit

1853, remained there until 1864,
when he and his wife and two chil

with an ox team, arriving in Linn
county, Oregon, where he remained
until 1866. Then he moved to
Southern Oregon for a couple of
years, and returned to Linn county
and stayed there for two years.
In the year 1870, he came to
Prineville. He united with the
Prineville Baptist church as one of
its charter members and was a faith
ful and devoted Christian. He
leaves three brothers and sisters in
Kentucky, three granddaughters
and two grandsons, one greatgrand
son and one greatgranddaughter in
Crook county and many other rela
tives and friends to mourn his loss.
