Adams, May 20. To the Editor of ths Lzades: More weddings on the tapis whatev er that means. Mr. -Sills is besy at work preparing his brick yard. He contemplates burn in 200,000 bricks in his first kiln. More then one of our business men have Uiadc hurried trips to Portland lately in questionable company, No offense, friend M. Things have freshened up amazingly since the rain. I'eese St Redman sold eight barrels ef sugar to conutry cus tomers on Saturday, besides enough oth er floods to have started an ordinary store. Notes that were worth twenty five cents on the dollar are now worth one hundred. Five aud one-half mehes of rain fell by actual measurement, be sides the later showers. The latest sensation is the formation of the ".Mains Athlete Club" (limited) Organized last Saturday evening; has already a membership of twenty-seven; object, a whole lot of fun; open every evening after six o'clock, except Sun day; uiigentlemauly behavior cause for expulsion; drinking and gambling strict ly prohibited. John T. Redman, Presi dent; Clem Reese, Secretary; George Ridenour, Scargcaat-at-arros; E. Riden- ur, Charles Bowling aud E. Peoples, Trustees. We have already boxing loves, war clubs, trapeze bars, etc., and the amount of fun we have is wonder ful. I do not think the preacher meant more than half what he said last Sun day in bis sermon witu - regard to our club. It is certainly not, nor could it the terrible pandemouium he de cribed. If it was not against the rules to iavite parties within a radius of four miles ot town, we would give him an in vitation, and he could then see for h'.m self our innocent method of conducting affairs. 1 think we will suspend the rules for once, and then won't we put on the gloves and knock him out!

Peterson & Brothers, Philadelphia, Pa., for special terms to Ageuts. Died, March 1st, 1SG5, near Pilot Rock, Umatilla county, Oregon, of con gestion of the braia, Jesse R. Benson. Father Beuson was born April 30th, 1823; was married iu 1S49 to Miss Emi ly White; emigrated to this State in 1SC4, and settled on the Umatilia Mead ows, where ho remained several years, during which time his beloved compan ion departed this life December 1st, 1S71. Having lived a devoted Chris tian, she died ia the triumphs ef a liv ing faith in Christ her Redeemer. Four children nnrvive the departed pa rents and two have gone before. Brother Bsnson was one of the valua ble members of the Pioneer Baptist Church of Pilot Rock, Oregon. He served the church as clerk for several years. He was a great friend to the Snnday School work, and by vote of the Suuday School workers in his own neighborhood he had served in ths ca pacity of superintendent of the Sunday School, which office he filled to the per feet satisfactio'i of all concerned up to the time of his death. Durinr his briet illness he would frequently make inqui ry about the Sunday School, expressing great anxiety for its future prosperity. He was also elected by the voters of this county to the responsible office of County Commissioner for two terms, which office he filled with great credit to himself and the people. He was not in any sense of the word an office-seeker. The office sought him. He was truly a servant of the people ia every capacity to which he was called to offi ciate, regarding the wants of others first, and very eouscientious in all of his deliberations. The night ef his death his, only daugh ter living, Mrs. Mary B. Johnson, ad ministered to a loving father's wants un til midnight, at which time she was re lieved by her brother Oscar. Ten min utes past three in the morning he was resting apparently free from pain. Five minutes later the son heard as he thought his father speak his name, but, turning to him, he found him uncon scious. He never spoke again. Fifteen minutes later his spirit took its Might to the "home of the soul" which had heen prepared by the Saviour in whom he trusted while living. He had been devoted and exemplary Cbrietian for a quarter ef a century, ever ready to as' sist to his utmost ability in everything that tended to promote and strengthen the causa which he espoused. ' Iu his af tliction he was ever patient, gentle aud kind to those who adiniuistered unto him, bearing with meekness and sub mission all for Christ. His loss in the community aiy church is deeply felt, He was a faithful friend, a loving fath er. His children honored him; death glorified him. Beloved father, friend, brother, farewell! W". H.

Howe, the Kansas editor who wrote "The Story of a Country Town" and "The Mystery of the Locke," never went to school after the age of 7. He has traveled little and read little.

A few days ago, in the Bcise valley, we were shown a hen that was taking care of five kittens, and it was a peculiar sight to see when the kittens were placed on the barn floor to see the hen clacking around and scratching the floor, as if to give her proteges a show to peck.
