KETrR.vED.pr. J. Welch, who has
been absent fro;i home for the past
woes, returnedihome last Monday af-
Anottaer Old Cltlsen Gone.
It is again onr painful duty to chron
icle the" death of an old and highly
esteemed citizen, Mrs. Mariam Ckxik,
who was mother of the wife of our
townsman, Mr. A. J. Apperson,- in
whose family she had her home sin e
September, 186U During her decline,
no particular disease manifested itself.
Old age had crept upon her, but not
unnoticed. She had often during the
present year expressed it as her opin
ion that she would not live through
this vear, and during the days imme
diately preceding her death, realized
that her davs were numbered, and that
she was called to go home. Her last
hours were peaceful, and sho passed
away -on Tuesday morning, about 9
o'clock, without a struggle. Mrs. Cook
was born in Washington county, New
York, in 1796. She married in l15,and
in ISU removed to liatavia, Michigan,
and lsXil came to Oregon. Mrs. Cook
was the mother of ten children, Mrs.
Apperson being the youngest. Six of
her children survive her. She has had
twenty-four grand children, fourteen
of whonvare living. When in New
York Mrs. Cook was a member of the
Methodist Church ; when in Michigan
she joined the Church called Christians,
and during the last sixteen or eighteen
vears of her life she has been a believer
in Spiritualism. It was her request to
be buried in a cemetery in amhill
county, near where her son and two
laughters with their families reside.
She also desired her relatives to refrain
from wearing " mourning " for her,
and that her funeral tie plain and with
out ceremony, save to read a favorite
piece of poetry, entitled, '.'There is No.
ueatJi to inose wno live Arignt.
Mrs. Cook was, in her life, kind and
exemplary, a good mother, a fait hi ul
friend, a pious woman, loved and hon
ored by all who knew her. The va
cancy caused bv her death is one that
cannot bo filled. May her ashes rest
in peace. To the atllicted friends and
relatives, especiallj- the family in our
midst, wo tender our kindest" sympa
thies. We are requested, in behalf of
-Mr. Apperson ana ins tamuv, to return
their sincere thanks to their many
friends for their kindness and sympa
thy during their aillictioii and bereave
ment

Home Again. Dr. Thos. Nicholson,

returned home with his family last Fi :-
da3r, after an absence of some seven
weeks. He looks as though he has en
joyed h s vacation and be ready to enter
upon his responsibilities with invigor
ated mind and body.
Personal. -We received a friendly
call last Monday from our friend Judge
McArthur. The Judge was on his way
to Salem to attend the. session of the
Supreme Court which convened at that
place last Monday.
No.nk in M a iwki-.. . . ii..cim has re
cently advanced in the market to 1'J cts
per pound, and there is none to be had
in our town, even at that price. We
learn that it has advanced in Portland
also ami that it is very scarce.
Returned. Mr. J. II. Walker, who
we announced as being missing in our
last issue, returned home all right last
Friday. Ho did not start from
Antelope valley as soon as his friends
thought, which was the cause of his
noil arrival.
Disturbance. Two young men,
named respectively Win. Marks and
Truman IJoynton, had a bit of a tight
it the Can by eampmeeting, and were
interviewing the Justice of the Peace
it Jiarlow's last Thursday for the of
fence. We learn that tho Justice dis
charged the parties.
Ui.set, While five of the young men
of Oregon City were out boat-riding
last "Sunday evening, they got upset
below town. They clung to the boat
and called loud for assistance, which
was promptly rendered by Mr. Saul,
who brought"all safely on shore.
Note. We publish marriages and
deaths free of charge when furnished
us by parties interested.
Jbuat Gilt Concert Postponed.
The announcement of the i-ostponement.
of the Last Crift Concert of the Public Li

public. In Governor nramlette's card, pub-

will be accepted without le-sitatlon by ev
ery one. The management in this instance,
consulting the interests ot ticket holders
and those d"sinlng to become ticket hold
ers, have not waited until the last day to
make this announcement, but Just as soon
as they became satisfied of the necessity
of this postponement, have promptly
made the announcement. It is unnecessa
ry to review the causes which have neces
sitated this action, as they are fully recited
in uovernor uramlette's card. The p-ompt-ness
and frankness with which the public
have been niacin aware of the intention of
the manager will meet with the hearty
commendation of every one, and excite
such a new interest and confidence in the
scheme and the ability of the manager to

An Vn wholesome Sett so o. .
The closing days of wlnt-' r and the early
days of spring are very trying to the feeble
and sensitive and are apt to affect unpleas
antly even the more robust and vigorous.
Nothing can be more uncongenial to the
nerves or more depressing to the spirits
than damp, chilling winds, fogs and cold
rains, and of such unwelcome visitors we
have a superabundance at this season.
Common prudence suggests, therefore, the
TTopriety of fortifying the system against
th -s-; insidious enemies of health and
comfort, ai d the experience of more than
a quarter of a century iKilnts to Ilostetter's
Stomach Eitters as the all-sufficient sani

cumstances. As accession of vital strength
and energy Is what Is required to meet and
overcome the unhealthy elements now
present In the atmosphere. This increase
of vital power, so necessary to meet the
extraordinary drafts which an inclement
season makes ujKin the system and the
constitution, can be readily acquired by
taking lrom two to three doses ol Uost"
rers Hitters daily during tho winter and
spring months, the nature ol this cele
brated restorative is iel knoin to th
public. It is comps"d of an absolutely
pure diffusive stimulant, medicated with
the extracts and juices of the most effec

ative roots and herbs known to nvdical
science. To the combination of these ex

The Parker Gcs.-We take jleas j
ure in calling attention of our alley 1
friends to the wonderful merits of tho
double-barreled, breech loading sho
guns manufactured by Parker Broth
ers. West Meriden, Conn.
The highest testimonial- received
from all sections, of the country, and
the thorough test given it in the field
by our friend Capt. Green B. Samuels,
warrant us in asserting that it is the
best breech-loading shot gun in the
world. The simplicity of construction,
the ease with which it can be loaded or
unloaded, the facility with which the
load can be changed from small to
large shot enabling the sportsman, in
an instant, to adapt his change to any
sizea game mat may present nseir itie
ease with which it may be kept clean
its availability to a country wnere noth
ing but muzzle-loading ammunition
can be procured, all combine to recom
mend it to every sportsman who can
appreciate a perfect fowling piece.
