OREGON CITY COURIER, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 1905. 8 GRANGE HALL DEDICATION New Quarters Are Opened by Abernethy. CEREMONY IS IMPRESSIVE State Master Leedv, Secretary Mary S. Howard and Other Leaders Were Present. The low temperature oii Saturday mado the hot dinner served up by the ladies not the least interesting part of the dedicatory program at Aber uothy Grange. It was an appropriate prelude to the serious businoss of the aiteruoou, tne exeroises Doiore uiunur consisting of vocal and instrumental music, au essay by Miss Bernier, and ex tempore speeches a Grange "love feast." The dedication of tiie hall was per formed in accordance with a printed ritual. To, Worthy Master Carter foil the opening words of the ceremony. Capt. J. T. Appersou, treasurer of Ab ernethy Grange, presented him with the keys of the hall and Master Carter, in turn, gave them to Worthy Master Loody, staudiug at his side. The ofll cors of Abernethy Grange circle around tlie altar, a prayer is read by the chaplain, also passages of Scrip ture to smiie of which the officers' re spond, mill Flora, Ceres and Pomona place einlilematio offerings on the altar. The state, master returns the key to tlio master of Abernethy Grange with the words: "I trust tho State Grange will nover again have occasion to take possession of those koys " Thus ended the solemn ceremony. Then caiuo oratory and music. First in order was an address by Mrs. Mary Howard, the state secretary. Her sallies of wit elicited frequent ap plaune. State Master Leedy, who fol lowed, omphnsi.ed tho influence ex erted by the Grango ill the legisla ture, the $2500 appropriated for far mers' institutes being one evidence of this. Judge Galloway being called on, admitted that he had once been a member of the Grange, and was will ing to become such again if Abernethy wan tod him and his better half. He brought out the fact that there is no organization other than the Grango in which wonioii stand on an equal foot ing in all respocts with men, placing it at the forefront of progress. Captain Appersou, "the father of Abrenethy Grange," seemingly real ized the great importance of the Grango movement to the tillers of the soil. In forcible langaago he exhorted all his neighbors to join the order to promote the welfare of the vor.ng men and wonio'j. "The Grange will do good," said he, 'as long as the good people of this community cooperate with it, then its influence will extend throughout the state. With the object of oooperatiug with ns iu the great work of promot ing tho interests of the cultivators of the soil, we admit to membership a half-lawyer, a half-doctor or a poor merchant. " To the ladies of Park place ho gave tho credit for estub iishing Abernethy Grango. Remarks were also made by liro, Chitwood of Damascus, Bro. Eby, a prominent Granger of Linn oounty, a "lather in Israel," mother Harring ton of Central Grunge, and others. The Bpoeehcs were interspersed witli songs and recitations. Twenty applications for membership woro to come before the evening ses skill of the Grange. ' TOTAL IS NOW $650. Fund for Fireman's Tournament Stead ily Growing. The committee in charge of the gen eral arrangements for a firemen's tournament in this city July 3, 4, and 5 Monday received a cheek for $100 as the P. G. B. Go's contribution to ward the expenses of the tournament. This contribution is nearly the last to come from the big companies that transact business in Oregon City. The oity council has tacitly agreed to make an additional appropriation at a future meeting, and it is more than probable tl .at the Portland Flouring Mills Company will give liberally. W. H. Howell, a member of the committoe, said that an attempt would be made to raise $1500 for the three days' tournament. Taking into conideratiou that $1500 will be given in prizes for racos alone, this amount is not believed to be ex cessive. Other sports will be held, on land and river, two bands will be engaged, aud the firemen plan to make the coming , celebration better in every respect than any previous one.

MILWAUKEE, Or., Feb. 10. -Mr. Henry Karr, who died of pneumonia at his home here on the morning of February 7, was born in Indiana, Dec. 10, 18:i. Early in his boyhood he movodwuli his parents 'to Washington county, Illinois, whore ho .resided until ho was about 18 years of age. Then ac companied by his brother James G. Uiirr, by way of Now York, aud the Isthmus of Panama, he came to Cali fornia arriving there in Deoember, 1855. In lao8 he came to Oregon, where ho decided to make his home, aud ou July 4, 1800, he united in mar riage with Mary Phillips, who, with her parents had crossed the plains from Illinois in 1H46. Early in life Mr. Karr united with the Baptist church and continuod a consistent member until the end. He was well known for his upright ness of character, his honorable deal ings with men, aud for his dovoted- ness as a husband and lather. He took much interest in affairs of the day aud was a coutant reader of the newspapers until a few days be fore his death. He leaves to mourn his loss a wife and six children, who are : William H., Ettta ii., Frank J., Raleigh J. , Edith O. Karr of Milwaukee, aud Mrs. Goo. Johnson of Damasous, and a brother, James A. Karr, of Ho quiam, Wash. After the lanerai services at ins lato residence, the remains were laid to rest in Multnomah cemetery, where the beautiful floral pioces, as a last tribute, showed the love aud respect of many friends. Sick Headache. This distressing ailment results from a disordered condition of the stomach. All that is needed to effect a cure is a dose or two of Ohamber- lum'a Stnnmmi nnri Tjlvor Tablets.

For years cod liver oil has been known to possess remarkable curative aud healing properties lor throat, tirou chial and lung troubles, but, as a fam ons physician has said, on account of tho grease it contains, it has been diltl- cult for people to take euough of it into their systems to comtiat a thor oughly settled disease. "Now, however," said Mr. Hunt ley, "we have Vinol, which contains in a highly concentrated form all of the medicinal curative elements actually taken from tresli cod s livers, but without a drop of oil or grease to unset the stomach and retard its work, and there is no limit to tho amount auv person can take into their system to over come disease. Here are two letters that have just come to our at tention : "Mrs. Louisa Stover, of Elkhart, lucl., writes: 'For a long time I suffered with bronchial trouble and feared consumption. I could not seem to get any relief from cough medicines, old forms of cod liver oil or emulsions. 1 coughed badly, and my chest was sore and irritated. Vinol has healed the soreness ami stopped the cough and has strength ened and invigorated mj whole system. ' "Mrs. John Hoskins, Pangor, Penn., writes that Vinol cured her ' sen of bronchitis, from which he had suffered for years after everything else had failed. .
