Five cases of typhoid fever are
reported in one family near Reed
ville. The sick people Arrived
lately from Minnesota, and the

often occurs when water gets too
low in tbe wells. When persons

they should boil all used for drink
ing purposes. This is the advice
of the physicians.

WILSON WHITMORE
Wilson Whitmore, of this city, af
ter ao illness of several weeks, died
at the family home, November 15,
1907, interment being in the local
cemetery, Sunday. Deceased was
born in Cosbockton County, Ohio,
October 26, 1832. Moving to Iowa
in youth, he was wedded to Ellen
Coesel, in 1854, and to this union
were born three children, one of
whom, Jacob Whitmore, of Hilla
boro, survives. He was again mar
ried, in 18G8, to Rebecca Fleming,
at Bladensburg, Iowa, two children
being born to them, Tiberius Whit
more, and Mrs. Nora Miller, both
being deoeased. Tbe family came
to Oregon in 1871, and settled on ft
homestead near Laurel. They re
sided there continuously, except a
time spent at N ew berg and Golden-
dale, and the last year or so in this
city. Mr. Whitmore was highly es
teemed by a large circle of friends.
His widow survives.
A dispatch from Seattle, dated
the 17th inst , says that the Hawai
ian girls, who were entertained in
Hilleboro some time ago, got into
trouble while returning from a trip
to Alaska on the steamer Jefferson,
bound from Juneau, Alaska, to
Seattle. The girls tendered drafts
on Honolulu, for their fare, which
were refused by the steamship offi
cials, so that the girls are in the
position of stowaways. The fair
maidens, however, are under the
protection of some big hearted
miners,' who are coming down to
Portland and Seattle to spend the
winter, and who promise to settle
the matter of fare when Seattle is
reached. Mrs. Weatherred, wbo is
ft siBter of Leroy Totier, appealed
to him, and in spite oi the protests
of the steamship officers, the girls
were taken aboard. The fair Ha
waiians had not figured on meeting
money stringency, .when they
lett borne, and the steamship com'
pany did not want to accept ex
change on the Honolulu banks.
