DEPARTMENT STORE The Home of The Sorrosis Shoe JUDGE BOISE DEAD PIONEER SALEM JURIST HAS PASSED AWAY Ciinw to Oregon In 1H50 mill Located on tlie Land Now Occupied by the City of Salem Has Been a Lead ing Citizen of Oregon for Almost Half a Century. The Salem Statesman -says of the death of Judge R. P. BoUe of Sa lem: At his resldence.'at 960 Broadway, in this city, Wednesday afternoon, April 10, 1907, at 1 o'clock, Jurge R. P. Boise passed to his final rest . lie had been 111 only a short time, and he retained his consciousness and his mental vigor up to within a few hours before the end came. The fi nal dissolution was due to compli cation of ailments. Honorable Reuben P. Boise was one of Oregon's most honored pio neers. He cams to the state In 1850 and was a prominent factor In shap ing he J destiny. Judge Boise was born in Bland ford, Hampden county, Massachu setts, on June 9, 1818. He would have reached his 89th year on June 9 next. His father, Reuben Boise, was also a native of Massachusetts. The Boise family emigrated from France to Scotland, and later to the north of Ireland, and Mr. Boise's pa ternal great-grandfather emigrated to Massachusetts, locating on a farm which is still retained in the family, and where Mr. Boise's father was raised and lived all his life. He married Miss Sallle Putnam, a relative of General Putnam, of Revo lutionary fume, her father, Jacob Putnam, having served as a colonel during the whole cf that struggle. Judge Boise's father was a farmer, and a man of prominence, having held several offices in his state, among which were county commis sioner and county clerk; he also rep resented his district In the state sen ate of Massachusetts. He had eight children, four sons and four daughters. Of this family, Judge Boise lived the longest and for a number of years was the only sur viving member. Judge Boise came to Salem to re side In 1857, where he has since re mained He first purchased a block of lots In the city where the Acad emy of the Sacred Heart now stands, where he lived until 1865. In 1880 he purchased a farm In North Sa lem, where he resided up to the time of his death. It Is the property on which the first house in Salem was built. This farm, however, ha bean platted in to town lots, and what was then a farm Is now a densely populated dis trict of Salem. The judge has added from time to time to the acreage of his first ranch until he now has In on body 1560 acres. Having been raised on a farm, he has taken an in terest in agricultural affairs and has bttn a champion of legislation in Oregon in behalf of farm Interests and has five times been elected mas ter of the state grange and attended a number of meetings of the national grange held in different states. Is an ordeal which all women approach with M BROTHER ixr: srm mum v a u mi am.u a child.birth. Thethought of the suffering and danger in stare for her, robs the expectant mother of all pleasant anticipations of the conr'n event, and casts over her a shadow of gloom which cannot be glial .-!?. Thousands of women hare found that the use of Mother's i-VivwJ during pregnancy robs confinement of all pain and danger, and insures safety to life of mother and child. This scientific liniment is a god-eend to all women at the time of their most critical trial. Not only does Mother's Friend carry women safely through the perils of child-birth, but its ijse gently prepares the system for the coming event, prevents "morning sickness," and other dis- comforts of this period. 5?H T Pwm,fJSk aTr Sold by all druggist. at j,' containing valuable information frsa. faf?fyl$$aUt!l9 IFfi The Bradfield Regulator Co..

Arthur Powell Davis has been pro moted from assistant chief engineer to chief engineer of the reclamation srrvlee, says John E. Lathrop In a Washington letter. He has been over the ground thoroughly, and knows Intimately the conditions which obtain In the Irrigation states. He has wide acquaintanceship with the representative people of that re gion, and Is said to be one of the foremost men In his line of endeavor In the United States. Mr. Davis was born (n Illinois, Feb ruary 9, 1861. He was educated In th public schools of Junction City mid Emporia, Kansas, and later com pleted an engineer's course In the George Washington university. At the age of 23 he entered the United States Geological survey as a member of the topographic branch, and since then h,a been closely Iden tified with the topographic, hydro graphic and engineering work of the government. His early work was In the west, where he spent several years In sur veying reservoir sites In the high mountains and In measuring the streams of the Great American 'des ut. His name is attached to many of the original maps of Arizona, New Mexico and California. The reports nf his Investigations are valuable contributions to our knowledge cf the arid country and Its possibilities, and have been of especial value In the preliminary work of the reclamation service. In 18HS-1900 Mr. Davis hud charge of the hydrographlc work of the Nicaragua and Panama canal routes, and his reports furnished much needed and Important information concerning both plans. He Joined the reclamation service immediately after the passage of the reclamation act, and since that time has been closely Identified with nil of the en gineering work connected therewith. Mr. Davis bYa man of lndefattg?.blc Industry and Is earnestly enthusiastic In developing efficient and business like methods In the conduct of the operations of the service. His strong characteristics are clear judg ment and sound common sense, and these combined with a thorough un derstanding of the principles of en irlneerlng design admirably fit him for the responsible position to which lie has attained. His promotion meets with the unqualified approval of all the engineers of the service and Is regarded by them as a Just re ward for faithful and efficient ser vice. The bureau of which he has be come chief engineer Is now expend ing more than Jl, 000,000 per month In the construction of 25 large Irri gation projects which will reclaim 3.000,000 acres of land. The work gives employment to more than 10, "00 people, and has already reclaim ed nearly 300,000 acres of desert. ttotft, AimrvM s. Illltcl St. Cenvee. W. H. rnsnH.iv Grangevlll: W. J. Haron.
