E are constantly studying quality, styles and prices of all the different makes and know them from A to Z, we are therefore able to furnish the best in the market at the least possible price. We are busv. but alwavs find time to wait on a customer and show our goods. We have received another shipment of those new thin model Boss Filled Watches. They are guaranteed to preserve the exact appearance of an all-gold case for 25 years. If through any fault in making it should fail to wear 25 full years, we will give a new case in exchange for it. It is not gold all through but you would never know it ; it is stronger, as beautiful and much cheaper than an all gold case. We would like to explain its construction to you. How about your watch? If it does not give satisfaction, or if you would like to nave another, show it to us. We allow full value for it on a new one, and if you are not able to pay the full amount at one time, we will sell it on the installment plan. In case you cannot afford a new one at present and are in need of a good time piece, leave your old watch with us for repairing. We do good work, do it promptly and at a fair price. And guarantee it for one year. We regulate Watches free of charge, whether you bought them of us or not. Burmeister & Andresen, The Oregon City Jewelers Oregon City Oregon, Ym:z: s We Ml and Repair Waleto p F-1372 memme 1 ; , urn (The decearert was a member of Clack amas Grange, No. 298, in which he held the office of Steward. One of nature's noblemen, he was esteemed and loved by bis fellowmen.) It becomes us, on every occasion, to honor the departed, and as every human being is a child of the Infinite Father, each is entitled to our tendereBt consid erations. Our Brother Patron Ross Parker, who laid bis mortal down August 4th at 5 p. m., hiving just entered the22d year of his age, deserves, for the time being, atten tions above the ordinary; and like every other human being that ever lived, or ever will live, he possessed at birth those innate and divine qualities which go to make up the truest manhood of earth, and being brought up by an exemplary and indulgent mother, those qualities were trained from infancy in the paths of goodness and activity. As the years were passing over his head those same Eowers increased in strength and Roes ecame a boy admired by all who knew him; and as his age to manhood ad vanced he began to bear fruits of general kindness to all, specially kindness to the unfortunate. Dumb brutea under his charge received his tenderest care; even the worm in the path beneath his feet was passed by unharmed. Ever mind ful of his mother's welfare, he sought to make her home pleasant in every way within hia power He sought the most refined society in which to move, and gathered around himself as companions those who, like him, aspired to better conditions ot lite. Although his form now lies in the clay ; Brother Ross Parker is gone, gone from mortal sight, from mortal recogni tion, yet Who will undertake to say He lives not in immortal day? Perchance in yonder sky above He lives in a home of peace and love. Prophets of old have declared such ex istence to be the final abode of man, and on down to our own day our intuitiona proclaim the same to be true. When we come to compile the evidencea of life beyond the grave, we find one unbroken chain of facts from the most ancient his tory to the present day strongly Blip portiDg that claim. But taking it for granted that such life does exist, what are our brother's relations there? Life, being continu ous, is governed by the same law, whether in that world oriuthia; and when Brother Parker awoke on that ce les'iat shore, it was like Btepping from a lower to a higher room in the same house, like passing from a lower to a higher grade in the same Bchool. All he haa learned on earth will be his be ginning there, with far gre iter facilities for learning all that is good, pure And noble in spirit throughout the eternal years. It ia the duty of earth-mothers to quicken, by intelligent teachings, and as fast aa conditions will allow, all those latent powars of soul that are born with their babes . A fter the germ of the rose, through the nutrition of earthly ali ments, has burst its shell and become a plant, then nature with more refined elements carries the process of unfold- ment on to greater perfection ; so nature works through the mother's intellect, through the mother's love, for the un fold ment of those innate powers of soul the heritage of every man that leads to noble manhood on earth, and to angelhood in heaven. Then, if the theory of soul evolution "s true, we need have no fear for the fu ture welfare for our arisen brother, for wnat be lacked in useful knowledge on earth will be taught him there by gen tle teachers. The Patron's love of Justice and Fra ternity that characterized Brother Ross, and which he was so active in trying to exemplify in his grange work, will be more than meted to him there. The home he was beautifying for his own and his mother's sake, will be dupli cated for him over there, and with far greater beauties. And that young love ot his just beginning to unfold, will still continue to unfold ant: cause him to be a worshiper at the shrine of all that is beautiful, good and true. Farewell, young friend. We miss thy form, No more to bear the shepherd's crook : Thy life had reached its early morn, tot length of days had fondly looked. We sometimes fancy we can hear Thy footsteps on the Patron's floor; We quickly lend a listening ear, But hear no sounds at the inner door. And when to music the Patron's march, And halt balore the Master s chair; And when the Master firmly asks, 'Who are those you are bringing here?" We fail to hear, as in days gone by, the pleadings ol thy harvest hands; But another stands with thee vie In teaching how to beed the lands. We miea thee in the Grange's work. We sometimes whispered in thy ear A certain word all must apeak, Ere they can hope to enter there. When you had reached that far off shore, Had you to speak some annual word? Or did you pass that sapphire door On your deeds of doing good ? So farewell now for a while. We all must follow soon or late. Our hands must needs till the soil Until we can pass that "Inner Gate." ftf lip It Pays to Paint. There is nothing that adds to the selling ralue or the renting value of a house like good paint there is nothing that makes home more home-like than good paint. It pays to paiuU The better the paint, the better it pays. The Sherwin-Williams Paiht pays In the beginning because it goes so far pays in the end because it lasts so long, and looks so well, as long as it lasts. There is no paint like it for beauty and durability, for economy and satisfaction. Ours is a complete Paint Store. We wan to bid on the materials for your Painting, whether it be a gallon of Mixed Paint or a Barrel of Oil and a hundred pounds of Lead. We can save you money, and you know nothing goes from this store that is not first quality. Glad to give you color cards. C. G. HUNTLEY, Popular Price Druggist, Oregon City The Canal, Locks Power, and Water While 'he theoretical power of the talis has been figured at about 56,000 horsepower, er gineers have found that scarcely more than 25,000 horsepower is practically available at the lowest stage of the water. Of this total capacity about 15,000 horsepower is now used for manufacturing. The P. G. h. Company consnmes about consumes about 9000 horsepower for its electric station, about 10UU horsepower is used by the paper mills and about 5000 horaepower goes to the flouring mills, woolen mill and pulp mills. This ltaves about two-fifths of the total capacity of the water power still to waste down over the cataract. Engineer Sullivan estimates the amount of water required to operate the canal and locks at not more than 100 hotse- power. It is said that the P. G. E. Co. Co. contemplates the building of a wall from the headgates o f the canal down about 1000 feet along its course, in order to separate the navigation chan nel from the feed way to the mills. A board of officers, aopointed by the sec retary of war. will examine and report upon the canal and locks and the use of waterpower by the manulactunng en terprises . Croivds Going to the Circus. An unusual degree of local interest has been arousod by the announcement thatKingling Bros.' famous big circus is to exhibit in Portland Monday and Tuesday, August 18 and 18. Several big excursions will go from this vicinity ,and local people will be well represented at the big show. Those who go from here should make every ertort to arrive in time to see the magnificent new free street parade, which takes place In the morning preceaing me opening per formance. The ( procession ia divided into thirty enormous sections, each of which is a complete parade, and pre sents in its entirety a bewilderingly mag nificent two-mile carnival of pageantry such as the world has never seen. In thiB gorgeous display are shown over 100 beautiful dens and cages of wild ani mals. 500 horses, 30 elephants and near ly a thousand people, and the costumes throughout are of the finest silks, satins and cloth of gold. The performance that follows is tne most magnificent arenic display ever presented by any cir cus in America. It is entirely new this year, and its novelty and magnitude have created a sensation wherever the show has exhibited. County Treasurer's Notice. I now have money to pay county war rants endorsed prior to March 1st, 1900. Interest will cease on the warrants in cluded in thiB call on the date of this notice.

It is understood that Oregon City will soon have a drinking fountain as the re sult of the efforts of the city council and the humane society. This fountain has already been sent from tbe iron works at Pennsylvania and before long will be here. .Nothing, it seems to us, reflects more credit on our people than the intro duction of this necessary addition. The humane society, under the able manage ment of Miss Aneita McCarver, has been unfailing in its efforts to procure this, and the city council has always fa vored it. We heartily commend the ac tion in this particular, for we heartily believe in any means that tend to allevi ate tbe distress of either man or beast. Grangers' Attention. Maple Lane Grange has changed its date of meeting from the last Saturday of each month to the first Saturday at 10 o'clock a. m. All visiting patrons are welcome. VV. F.

Committee When Sickness Comes to the head of the family the bread winner, the omnipresent thought is "Have I safely provided for the wife aud little ones?" Nine times out of ten, "No" ia the answer. It is then too late, however, to do anything. The essential thing to do is to prepare now for what may occur at any time. An investigation of the Mas sachusetts Mutual's new policies and bonds, will, without a doubt, bring to your notice a contract that will exactly suit your case. If interested, send a postal, giving your name, address, occupaton and date of birth, when an illustration will be sent you, showing exactly what the company will do for you. No guess work about It, as the dividends are paid annually and not withheld for twenty Years or so, and then not paid unless the contract Is in force at that time. II. G.
