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.
Tho following amounts have been
assured :
Oregon City Council - $250
Oregon 'Vator Power & Ry. Co. - 100
Portland General Electric Co. 100

DEATH OF A PIONEER.
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.
Ill faot, the attack may be warded
off greatly or lessened in severity, ry
tnkinc ft dose nf those Tablets as soon
as the first symptom of an attack ap
pears, aoia uy uoo. a. naming.
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. .
"Wo ask every person in Oregon
City suffering from chronio colds,,
coughs, bronchitis or who needs an in
vigorator , and strength creating
medicine to try Vinol ou our gimran
tee to rota'n 'n uim'c.t :t fails.
