From all over the country comes
the report of a failure in thQ prune
crop. It is estimated that in this
county there will not be more thin
a fourth of a crop, possibly not
more tuan a fifth. This is, indeed,
a very serious condition of affairs.
Robert Johnson, manager of the big
orchard of the Benton County
Prune Co., says that their orchard
produced as many prunes last year
as the whoie of Benton county will
produce this year. Along about
the latter pirt of next month
prunes generally drop from the
trees to some extent and with the
small setting of fruit this season if
they should drop to any degree the
output will he most seriously affect
ed. However, everything indicates
that the prunes that are produced
will be unusually large, and it is
hoped that the price will be as
large as the crop is small.

.Three Deaths.
Mrs. Lana Gray was born in
Strasburg, France, and at the
time of her decease, on Saturday,
May 31, she had reached the age
of 86 years 2 months and 21 days.
She came when a child with her
parents to Buffalo, N. Y. Thence
to Ohio, Chicago, Wisconsin,
Minnesota, Buffalo, and finally
to Oregon. Was married in
Buffalo, N. Y., to Mr. Anthony
Mitchell. After - the loss of four
children he also died leaving her
a widow with five children, one
of whom has since died, the sur
viving four being Mrs. J. H
Albright, of Corvallis; Mrs. M,
C. Shadden, Portland ; Dr. Frank
Mitchell, California; and Mrs.
L. C. Holgate, Baker City; who
together with seven grand
children and one great-grand
child mourn her loss. She was
married the second time, at Mc
Liinnville. to Mr. Gray, who
died in Corvallis, a few years
back. She united with the
Baptist church in Corvallis, Feb.
28, 1892.
Her liie has been that 01 a
consistent follower ot Christ.
She was ever at the post of duty
and a great worker in the church
until sickness laid her aside and
deprived the church of one of its
best ' helpers. Her sufferings
were great, beyond words to tell,
but now she has fallen sweetly
asleep in Jesus whence none shall
ever wake to mourn or weep.
Long will her memory be loving
ly cherished by all who knew
her, while we shall look forward
with intense anticipation to the
hour of reunion amidst the joys
and splendors which know 110"
ending. Truly the memory of
the just is blessed.
The funeral services were con
lucted by Rev. M. Noble, in
the Baptist church, Tuesday
morning,at 10 o'clock, June 3,
1902.
The death of A. Cauthoru oc
curred in this city last Sunday
morning about 6 o'clock. He
had been a resident of this coun
ty for 37 years, having come
from Missouri to Oregon in 1865.
He had been a Mason for more
than fifty years and a year ago
the local lodge celebrated the an
niversary of his fiftieth year as a
member.
He was a devoted christian
and a member of the M. B.
church, South. The funeral
will occur at 2 p. m. today and
the services will be conducted by
Rev. W. B. Smith, of the South
Methodist church. Interment
will be made in the Crystal Lake
cemetery.
For years the deceased was en
gaged in the mercantile business
in this city and has always been
most highly respecledjby all. He
was the father cf Dr. Frank
Cauthoru, James Cauthorn and
Senator Thomas Cauthorn; the
latter two sons are deceased.
He had reached the advanced
age of more than 30 years.
Mis. William Elliott died last
Thursday night at her home a few
miles north of this city. She was

liott, both lately deceased, and was
an old pioneer. She had been an
invalid for a dozsn years as the re
sult of a stroke of, paralysis. She
contracted pneumonia a couple of
days before her death and to this is
attributed her sudden demise. She
was aged 68 years. The funeral
occurred Saturday and the services
were held at the Mt. View school
house and were conducted by Rev.
II. A. Deck. The interment was
madf in the Locke cemetery. The
deceased was the mother of a large
familv and had many warm friends.
Thus has another pioneer cone to
the great beyond.
Something New.
While our city is well supplied
with fraternal orders, the Inde
pendent Order of Lions, with fts
most excellent and unique plans,
found sufficient favor with our
people, as presented by Mrs.
L. Lash, of Portland, who repre
sents the order in Oregon, to en
able her in a remarkably short
time to secure a charter list of
twenty-six of our leading citizens.
On the evening of May 29th
the lodge was instituted with the
aid of Supervising Deputy C. D.
Fowls. The following officers
were elected and installed: Dr.
L. G. Altman, past president; J.
Wrage, president; Mrs. Ellen
Brunk, vice-president; JNliles
Starr, secretary; Anora Laflerty.
treasurer; Rev. Andrew Carrick,
chaplain; Lillie J. King, s-r-geant-at-arms;
Harriet Dilley,
assistant sergeant-at-arms; H. S.
Clodfelter, door-keeper; West
Newton, sentinel, W. H. Dilley,
Dr. W. T. Rowley and H. M.
Drank are trustees.
The lodge was named to be
known as "Mizpah,". and is to
meet on the second and fourth
Wednesdays of every month. .
This is a fine record for two
days' work and speaks well for
the energy and, push of the or
ganizer. The Order of Lions is
a typical "web-foot" fraternal
institution, incorporated . under
the laws of Oregon with its su-
preme omces createa in tne
Chamber of Commerce Building,
Portland, where its supreme
president and secretary may be
found at any time and when the
books are open to the inspection
of any member ot the order. Th
benefits are paid in a pension
$50 a month for a period of four
years and a fianeral benefit of
$100. - This makes it a most ex
cellent order to take up along
with other orders or insurance
which is paid in a lump sflm.
Mrs. Lash returned to .Port
land on Friday, but will return
in a few days and continue her
work with the lodge.
