Mrs. Mary Humbert, wife of Isaac
Humbert of Dufur, departed thia life in
Portland April 30th. She has for some
months been a sufforer with that dread
and deadly disease, cancer of the womb,
and went to Portland to have one of
those operations performed wherein the
science of modern surgery takes the one
chance and death holds unto himself
the other ninety and nine. The opera
tion was performed at the Good Sam art
tan Hospital by Dr. Dietrich of Dufur,
assisted by a number of the leading Bur
geons of Oregon. The . patient rallied
and lived five days, when, despite the
attendance of the best medical skill of
the coast, other complications arose
which in her weak state it was impossi
ble for medical science to control.
Mrs. Humbert was a native of North
Carolina, 53 years and 20 days of age
and was married in Dade county, Mis
souri, thirty-two years ago. They re
moved to Wasco county in 1S85. She
leaves - two married . daughters. Mrs,
Hugh Jordan of this place and Mrs
o. Montgomery ot Missouri; also one
married son, Harden Humbert, living in
Missouri. There is one daughter.
Emma, and a son, Charles, living
the Dufur home to comfort the in con
solable husband and father, who, after
a third of a century of happy married
life, is bereft of a loved and loving com
pan ion.
Mrs. Humbert was one of those true
Christian women whose life work ia de
voted to making a home happy, and
who dying leaves a community better
for having had her quiet teaching an
excellent example. On .the eve of going
to Portland she wrote a letter and placed
it in a convenient place for her daugh
ter, Emma. In it was recorded the last
wishes and advice of a Christian mother.

POLITICAL
ANIMOSITY.

tne English.
A't a. recent reception held by the
princeof Wales Mr. Gladstone was
loudly hissed by the tories present.
The incidenta gross departure from
the respect due to a host and to a fellow-guest,
illustrates the bitterness of
the personal animosities created by
English politics. Another British
statesman, the late Lord Beaconsfield,
often encountered in private life the
virulent hostility of his political oppo-'
nents.
One day,v while residing at his coun
try house, Hnghenden manor, he was
walking-on the terrace, dressed in the
easy coat and old slouched , hat which
he always affected when among farm
ers. The gate opened, and two wom
en, strong Gladstonians, entered the
grounds.
Supposing him to be a keeper or gar
dener or something of that sort, they
inquired if he would" show them over
the place, which he at once undertook
to do. While they were walking about
they overwhelmed him with questions
as to the habits of the master of the
manor, and one of them finally said: .
"Do you think you could manage to
get us a sight of the old beast him
self?" . "Madam," said Lord Beaconsfield,
"the old beast has the bonor to wait
upon you now." "'
