was received by Mr. Smith French, an
nouncing the illness of his daughter. Dr.
Gertrude French, at Portland, and re
questing that the family come on the
first train. Later a telephone message
was received from Dr. Ford Warner say
ing that her ailment was throat trouble
and that as the tonsils had been opened,
it was hoped she . would get along all
right. As the telegram was received too
late for either west-bound train, a train
was at once chartered and Mr. and Mrs.
French and Frank left about 11 o'clock
for Portland. Much anxiety Is felt as
her disease eeems to be the same as that
of her sister, Mrs. Condon, who died ten
days ago. As many feared it might be
diphtheria, Dr. Hollister telegraphed to
Portland regarding the nature of the
case, receiving word that phyeicians
there pronounced it tonsilitis. No fur
ther word has been received, but it is
hoped it will not prove so serious as was
anticipated.

whose team was composed of Messre.l little above.

One hundied and three days and nights
without stopping is a very remarkable
record for any line of machinery to

when the vast number of seemingly
complicated machines that must be kept
in perfect adjustment is considered.
This is one of the best equipped mills on
the coastand its location is a good one.

KILLED AT UMATILLA.
George Gibson Ban Over While Attempt
ing to Uncouple Some Cars.
Tuesday afternoon, about 3:30 o'clock
Umatilla was the scene of one of those
terrible accidents which so frequently
occur in railroad circles and sadden
everyone to whom the news comes.
Yardmaster George Gibson, a young
man of about 28 years, who has been
employed by the O. E. & N. Co. for
several years past was the unfortunate
victim. Gibson was engaged in making
up freight train No. 21, when be stepped
between tbe cars, with the switch list
in one hand and attempted with the
other to pull the pin in order te detach
some cars. He was standing across the
rail and the brake beam caught his foot,
pulling him under the wheels, which
were in slight motion, and mashing his
right leg completely. The right arm
was also mashed to a pulp.
The poor fellow was ' at once taken to
tbe hospital in Walla Walla for treat
ment. He was conscious for the most
part of the time and talked very freely
after reaching there, although being in
intense agony. In a very ehort time,
however, he died, the injuries having
been so terribly severe tbat he could
not rally and undergo the operating of
the Burgeons.
Mr. Gibson leaves a young wife, hav
ing been married scarcely a year. Their
home was at Umatilla, but as his father
and a brother live in Pendleton, which
was also his former home, bis remains
were taken to that 0113?, where he was
buried yesterday.
Two Pointed Questions Answered.
What is tbe use of making a better
article than your competitor it yoa can
not get a better price for it?
Ans. As there is no difference in the
price the public will buy only the better,
so that whilo our profits may be smaller
on a single ecale . they will be much
greater in the aggregate.
How can you get the public to know
your make is tbe best?
If both articles are brought prominent
ly before the public both are certain to
be tried and the public will very quickly
pass judgment on them and ueeonly the
better one.

Dear Sir .
As administrator of the estate of tbe
late Philip Brogan, I have this day re
ceived from your agent Mr. S. P. Hana
walt check for $5,043.20 fn payment of
policy in your company.
This was the first policy issued to Mr.
Brogan a little over a year ago and al
though you paid him a dividend of over
14 per cent, which he applied to reduce
bis second payment, I find his estate re
ceives another dividend of $.43.20 only
two months from payment of the last
premium. '
I can well understand how Mr. Brogan
took an additional $5000 policy in your
company as be was satisfied beyond
doubt that your company does more for
tbe insured than any other doing busi
ness here. Yours truly,
J. P. McIxeeny,
