Prom this union there were two children one litt.e son who lies gone before and the remains of the mother were hurried by tbe side of her cbild. Rev C W Raymond of tbe Methodist Church officiated at the funeral and delivered a most impressive sermon of “ Death” His His text was appropriate, He told of the three classes of death which come to human beings.—the horrible dentil of tbe blasphemer who cursed God in life and waited until his dying moment before seeking salvation the death of the one who lived a moial life, hut, owing to circumstances surroundig thut life was not induced to seek God until the last hour the deathbed repentance; and the death on tbe Cross at Calvary. Tbe minister said many tender things regarding the life of Belle Whorton and many ip that croweded church were moved to tears. She was a good woman and while death removes her from this sphere she leaves behind many friends who will drop a silent tear in memory of one they loved in life. The husband and little son, the mother the brothers and sisters, and. lastly, the venerable father-in-law and mother- in-law who loved her as their own child have the deep sympathy of the community. Hon Ivan McQueen arrived here by private conveyance this afternoon from his home near Lorano about 16 miles southwest from Eugcnb. He will go to Salem to attend the legis lature tomorrow or Monday.

In the report by Su ptof Morey to tho National Convention of the W C T U recently, it was stated that that there were 100,000 signatures to the pledge not to wear birds. Also that Roosevelt had signed a bill making the wearing of wild birds in New York state unlawful, and imposing a fine from $25 to 160 for each offense, the report says that it has been proved as a scientific fact that the destruction of so many birds is disturbing the balance of nature. Insects which these birds would have used for food have destroyed grains and fruits.
