On account of the storm and disa

those who were present suy the musical

labored to arduously to make the affair
a success wero greatly disappointed at

will be encouraged by the added num

Wednesday morning a telegram was
received by Mrs. Bronson announcing
tho death of Mr. Bronson's mother, Mrs.
Louisa M. Bronson, at 4 o'clock Tuesday
evening at Santa Barbara, Calif. Being
on the boat when the news arrived, it
was thought best to delay breaking the
sad news to Mr. Bronson until he
reached homo last night. While visit
in hor Bon in our city n few years since,
Mrs. BroiiBon made very many warm
friends, impressing all who met her by
the charming manner of a perfect lady.
It iB authentically reported today that
the Sherman county bank, of Wasco,
owned by a stock company, und of
ivhieh V. O. Brock is cashier and J. M.
Patterson president, failed to open ita
doors this morning. Particulars regard
ing the elosing was not loarned, but no
doubt the principal cause is on account
of tho udvaiuei which the bank has
made on the wheat crop, of which such
an immense amount is being held, put
ting finances in Sherman county in bad
shape. Wo t'ust that its doors will re
main closed but a short time, and that
business will soon he resumed.

boy. He expects to return with him to
their home In Greeham on this after

opinion that the boy is the victim of
another's rascality. Bo that as it may,
should ho be proven Innocent he has

Mack, eiiief clerk, having resigned to ac

a firm in Portland, and Forrest Fisher,
who is now in the employ of Pease &

Mack has made an excellent cletk, and
Postmaster Riddell regrets to part with
him. Since Oct. 1st, two months and a
half, the volume of money order business
has amounted to $20,000, and on his of

inspector found that the only error in
the books was a matter of two cents off.
He complimented the work of the office
very highly and Baid the statements and
book work are the neatcet and best kept

to fill the vacancy is a splendid one. He
is a young man whom cveiyone trusts

While one hundred years ago it took
five days to convey the sad news of
Washington's death from Mt. Vernon
to congress at Philadelphia, barely 150
miles away, yesterday from Washington,
D. C, almost 3000 miles from tho Pacific
coast, in a few hours was carried the
intelligence of the impressive ceremony
which took place at Mt. Vernon on the
centennial annivorBary of that memor
able day. Tha following documents
conveyed tho sad news to tho body of
legislators then assembled :
"Unitkd Statks, Dec. 19, 1799.
"Gentlemen of the Senate, and Gontlo
men of the House of Representatives:
"The letter herewith transmitted will
inform you that it has pleased Divine
Providence to remove from this life our
excellent fellow citizen, George Wash
ington, by tho purity of his character
and a long series of services to his
country rtndered illustrions through the
world. It remains for an affectionate
and grateful people, In wIioeo hearts he
can never die, to pay suitable honors to
his memory.
"John Adams."
"Mount Vkknon, Dec. 15, 1799.
"Sir:
"It is with inexpressible grief that I
hove to announce to you the death of
tho great und good General Washington.
He died last evening, between ten and
eleven o'clock, alter a short illness of
about twenty hours.
"His disorder was inflammatory sore
throat, which proceeded from cold, of
which he made little complaint on .Fri
day. On Saturday mnrninsr, about three
o'clock, he became ill. Dr. Cralk at,
tended him in the morning, and Dr
Dick, ot Alexandria, and Dr. Brown, of
Port Tobacco, were soon after called in.
Every medical asnistancs was offered,
but without tiie desired efTtct. Ilia last
scene corresponded with the whole
tenor of his life; not a groan nor a com
plaint escaped him in extieme distress.
With perfect resignation and in full pos
session of his reason lie closed his wcK
spent life.
"I have tho honor to be, with the
highest respect, sir,
"Your most obedient and very humble
servant, Tobias Leah."
