Walla Walla Pioneer Wills Ills Wealth to tho Swcedtenrt of His Youth. , A bright spot In the ordinarily cold and selfish record of the world has been found In a little Incident re ported from Walla Walla. A cor respondent writing from that city to the Portland Oregonlan, says: When the will of the late Hermln- glle -Bernler, who died last week, at the age of 76, was filed In the supe rior court for probate, a romance of 50 years was ended and the devotion of the dead man to his lost love was shown to be true to death. The terms of the will cut hla two brothers and one sister off with a dollar each. leaving the whole estate, worth sev eral thousand dollars, to Mrs. Mary Curran, formerly Miss Mary Don- nette. Fifty years ago, In one of the east ern states, Hermlngile Bernler and Frank Curran were rivals for the hand of Mary Donnette. Curran won the heart of the girl and Bernler vowed he would never marry. For ears, during the best part of his life, he served In the regular army, saving, his comrades say, every cent he could possibly hoard. When he retired he came to Walla Walla, where his for mer sweetheart and her husband liv ed. Curran died some time ago, but Bernler never went near his widow., It is said that he was often seen In the neighborhood at night, as if guarding the home which sheltered his former love. For the past few weeks the old man has been growing weaker and last Friday he died of heart disease. alone and unattended. When his will was read, it was found that he had left everything to the object of his youthful love, with the request that she be given no more trouble In law than was necessary. . Respecting the love of their broth er, the relatives cut off by the will have expressed their Intentions not contest the matter, but to let the property follow the old man's wishes and go to his rival's widow.

To pour water upon the ground in endless quanti ty is not scientific irrigation. The truly scientific irrigator of practical experience seeks to use the right amount of water at the right time of the year. The experience of twenty years in similar deep soil underlaid by similar cement gravel in Upper butter Creek across trom the Furnish-Coe Lands has conclusively demonstrated that January, Febru ary, and. March are the months to saturate the soil for the largest crops. As an evidence of the damage to crops from late watering in this soil and climate, it may be stated that some potatoes watered under the Furnish Pro ject as late as July 20th last year, sprouted from such late watering. We have a scientific irrigator this year scientific through the hard school of experience who will guard against a repetition of such over-watering. Buyers of our lands will have the advise free of our irrigator. COLUMBIA LAND CO. D. B. COSTUMA, Manager Main and Webb Sts., Pendleton, Ore. General office, Echo office, MarqaamBld'g., Portland.
