Hill.sboro aud the surrounding
community suffers a real lo.ss in
the jiaMiig of Frank J. Williams.
He wan a man of more than pass- ,
ing worth, and his ideals of liu-1
wan action were well worth emu- j
lation. In alt the fifty years of j
boyhood and manhood .-.pent j
here there was never the accu.sa-
tion of unjustucss made against j
him. He was generous to a fault.!
charitable at all times, and his j
standard of life was always such j
that he won the love of his fcl- j
lows without courting it. There ;
were few men like Frank Wil
liams, and the world would be ;
infinitely better were there many, t

TO AUK-LAND
Mrs. Frances Bryant Hamilton,
wife of Wm. S. Hamilton, died in
Portland, August U0, 9llh She

Mrs. Hamilton was a member

Ronald C. Vaught, recently dis
charged from the A, F.. F has
gone on Slate Highway construc
tion near Mt. Hebo, in Tillamook
County. This is the country the
salubrious climate and idyllic
surroundings, of which once in
spired fellow-townsman Henry
(!. Guild to poetic and philosoph
ical musing- also to scientific
research. Rumors of the discov
ery of a pctriticd egg of that ex
tinct bird, the (treat Auk, in that
district, filtered through the press
souk years ano, and its identifi
cathyi by Henry, is an authority
on birds and chickens, aroused
the attention of the scientific
world. Vaught believes that a
vacation from the rattling, bang
ing world of cities am! towns aiu!
the army's disciplinary routine
will lead him into philosophical
ant! poetical paths that Henry
found so peaceful and restful.
Vaught made no suggestions that
he intended research work along
the line of any extinct birds, but
admitted he might give passing
attention to any specimens of live
ones that might have their habi
tat in that vicinage.

DIFFERENT DIVORCE CASE
This is-a different divorce case
different than the usual run. be
cause the ma jority of them afford
no contest. In this case, wherein
I.ydia Lahtinen sues Chas. for
divorce, Chas. wines right back
with an answer. I.ydia sets up
that they were married at Han
cock, Mich., in 1!02, aud that
they have one child, a daughter,
aged 12 years. She swears in
her complaint that they own 2
acres in Beavcrton-Recdville. and
that the husband has cursed her
repeatedly, and that in May he
knocked her down and dragged
her around the road. She asks
the court to give her her third in
the acreage; $1250 equity in Un
common property; 200 suit
money and $100 to support her
self and chili! during pendency of
the ease and then $25 ner month
alimony. After that Chas. comes
back with an answer, refusing to
take the count of ten. He savs
that his better half has an ungov
ernable temper and that she
roundly berates him. and lhat the
incident of assault as she relates
it, is given entirely wrong, as she
was the one who made the phys
ical attack. He states that she
about tore bis shirt off his back
and that she had no force from
him except that be exerted him
self to get away from her
"clutches." He says she has
manv times hurled dishes at his
head regardless, and he asks for
a decree and the custody of the
child.
