Those who are eligible for member ship must have been in Oregon when she was admitted to statehood, February 14th, 1S59. A good pro gram is piomised on this occasion. It is only a question of time when a later date of membership must be allowed or else this association will cease to exist, as every year that passes carries with it a number of the hardy old-timers who braved the dangers of an unknown land and hewed out one of the grandest states in the union. Burt Batty, quite well known here, where he attended the Ag ricultural college about three vears ago as a student in the farmers' short course, recently committed suicide at his home near Fort Caftby. He was secretary of the Wil lamette rruit L-oaopany, ana a son or Lreorge . .Batty, a prom inent railroad man of Chicago. He had been despondent for several days over minor business troubles, but they were not thought sufficient to cause him to take his own life. He left home early Friday morning to do some work in the field and wnen last seen alive was going towards the river. He did not appear at the house at lunch time and search was made, with no result. He was tracked in the soft ground to the river bank. The river was dragged and on Sunday morning the body was discovered with a bullet hole in the breast Temporary aberra tion was undoubtedly the cause of his suicide. The funeral will be held upon the arrival of the young man's father from Chicago. Additional Local. the ladies at Ride a Rambler. Galling cards for the Gazette office.

The exercises were all meritorious and reflected credit on themselves and their instructors. ' Rev. Andrew Carrick deliver ed the invocation at the close of the first overture by the orches tra and was followed by the salu tatorian, Gladys ;Moore. The program consisted of recitations and musical numbers by mem bers of the class. There were two .'class prophecies that were entertaining. Miss Elsie Bates sang a very acceptable vocal solo. Superintendent Desman pre sented the diplomas to the class. His addiess was a splendid effort and he held the close attention of the audience during the entire recital. As an off-hand speaker Sept. Denman is a perfect suc cess. The words of admonish ment he gave the class were very instructive and if heeded will prove beneficial to every one of the pupils. At the close of the exercises for the evening Prof. Holmes made a few remarks thankine the public for the part it had taken in making the evening memorable and announcing that the ninth grade pupils would hold their exercises in the Opera House this, Friday evening.
