is what he wrote: "Your mouth is the
front door to your face. It is the aper
ature to the cold storage of our anatomy.
Some mouths look like peaches and
cream and some look like a hole in a
brick wall to admit a new door or win
dow. The mouth is a hotbed for tooth
ache and the bunghole of oratory. It is
the crimson isle . to your liver. It is pa
triotism's fountain and the tool-cheBt
for pie. Without a mouth the politician
would be a wanderer on the face of the
earth and go down to an unhonored
grave. It is the grocer's friend, the ora
tor's pride and the dentist's hope. It puts
some men on the rostrum and some in
jail. It is a temptation's lunch counter
when attached to a man."

" W. L. Holcomb, who lives four miles
east of Oregon City on the Holcomb
road, was in town Friday on business.
Mr. Holcomb is one of the oldest resi
dents of this part of the Willamette val
ley, having come to Oregon City with his
parents in 1848, from the '-Sucker
State." Mr. Hoclomb married and
raised his family in this part of the
county, and all of his matured manhood
he hs been a resident of Clackamas
county. He thinks well of this part of
the earth, and thinks that one of these
days Clackamas county will be to the
forefront of any county of the Pacific
coast in business, population and wealth.
D. Kauffman, one of the "old timers'
of Clackamas county was in Oregon City
was ill for the last six months before her

The people in the south end of the
town, near the woolen mills, were treat
ed to the exciting novelty of seeing a
Klondiker scattering his wealth broad
cast last Saturday afternoon.
The name of the man who was so lav
ish nith his means is Robert Kelland,
of New Era. Kelland came down from
Nome a few days ago and stopped at a
hotel in Portland, and is reported to
have "blown in" something like $2500
while there. Saturday he struck Oregon
City. The return to his old home was
too much for the Klondike miner. Ihe
event must be celebrated in a fitting
manner. Accordingly he hied himself
to different places in town where King
Al Kohol reigns supreme. He found
plenty of his old friends, genial fellows,
who were not loth to drink with a man
who had money to burn. Kelland look
ed on the wine was red. In fact, he
looked on it several times, and each su&
cesBive time he grew a little richer in
his own estimation. When the Shades
of evening began to fall, he concluded it
was time to go home. By then be was
a full-fledged millionaire. At the woolen
mills he saw a crowd of children playing
on the streets. Now was a good time to
nrove that he was not only a million'
aire but also something of a philanthro-
olst. Dicainz down into his pocket he
fished up handful after handful of coins
and tossed them to the delighted "Kius.
Many of them thought that Old Sarita
Clause had really come to town. Among
other change that Kelland threw away
was a twenty dollar gold piece, which tie
concluded was too-much for one of the
children, and he took it back and got it
changed and then distributed it.
Kelland is reported to have struck it
rich in the Klondike. He has the repu
tation of being an all-around good fellow
and has many friends in Oregon City.
He has one fault, and that is that he
and King Al Kohol are too good friends.
No Clue to the Guilty Parties.
Mrs. Mary Kohn lives on the Aberna-
thy road, about four miles from town.
She is a poor widow and lives all alone.
On Friday of last week she left the house
alone and went out for a call. When
she returned she found that her house
had been burglarized. A search reveal
ed the fact that fifty dollars, which she
kept concealed in a drawer, had been
taken by the miscreants.
Mrs. Kohn was in town tho first of the
week and reported the loss. She hag
absolutely no idea as to who the guilty
parties are who took the money, but
thinks some one must have been aware
of where she kept it and watched her
movements so as to be able to enter the
house while she was gone.
Hymeneal.
On December 14, 1902, Miss Lillie
Belle Rouse, of Brownsville, Oregon, was
