.money derived from the sale of land
Under the treaty of 1894. The amount
Is $41,222.60, to be distributed among
421 pergons, which amounts to $97. &2
to each person. The larger families
will get 'several hundred dollars to
each family. The Indians say they
are going to be careful how they
spend this money as they will have
but one other chance to get easy
money. And that will be for some
timber land they still own.

In which all took part. It was a re;r
coclal affair in which all took part
nd everyone had a good time. Si

pitality and sociability. Everyone
noyed the fine large play house and
gymnasium the best In the county.

ghosts. Everything looked dark and
weird and as the spooks flitted about
It made the hair stand on your-head

IN MEMORY
Died at his home in Siletz Valley,
; of organic heart disease, Saturday,
, October 29th, Henry R. Cobb, aged,
79 years and 26 days. He is sur-
vlved by his wife and five children,
three girls and two boys. Mrs. Nel
; son Braulett lives In Portland; Mrs.
I Ray Sletch lives at Merced, Califor
nia; and MYs. Ralph Salvage at Si
' lolz; one son, Charles, lives in Port
j luniT; and tho other, Warron, Uvea
' at Sile'.z. Mr. Cobb was one of our
' best citizens. Ha belonged to that
i large ciajs called by Mr. Lincoln,
"The plain people." He was a mem
ber of the W. 0. W. and carried life'
insurance. He was born In Alogana,
County, New York, October 4th, 1842.
He was married 1 in Independence,
Iowa,, to Miss Anna L. Fiiu li, April
30th, 1S79. He came to Oregon la
November, ISM), locating at New
berg where he lived till about eight ,
years ago, when he came to Lincoln
: County, buying a place on Depoe
I Slough where he lived for about five
years, when once again he sold out
and bought a home at Siletz where
he lived up to the time ot his death.
The body was taken out Monday to
j Newberg where the funeral will prob
,ably occur Wednesday. The burial
1 will be in tho Newbeifc cemetery,
Mrs. Cobb, her son. Warren, and Mr.
:and Mrs. Ralph Salvage accompanied
! the remains..
! Mr. Cobb did not belong to any
church but he practiced the precepts
: and teachings of the "Golden Rule"
; which is the essence ot Christianity,
j "Hn word was as good as his bond."
i His home was a model of good cheer
! and happiness. No quarreling or
wrangling ever occurred In the fam
ily. Children growing up under such
good Influences cannot help but
make good citizens. Mr. Cobb be
; longed to that class of citizens that
l Is rapidly passing away giving place
! to the new order that Is coming up
jon the Btagn that will have charge ot
affairs but I doubt lt the new Btyle ot
4 men. will excell In, honor, Industry
end the neighborly spirit thnt char-
acterlze the . people of the passing
generation. The world Is moving ai
such a rapid rate that it is hard to
tell what a few years will bring
forth; good and evil, right and wrong
are becoming so intensified that It la
hard to tell which will prevail In the
great unknown future. ' Under these
circumstances we need more men of
such sterling character as Henry R.
Cobb. F. M. Carter. '
