He was born in Indiana on May 2nd, 1831. He went into the world to make his own way at the age of 18. In 1853 he came across the plains to Oregon. He at onee settled in Lane county and tooa up a dona tion land claim, in ^855 he took up another claim two and a half miles south of Dexter, where he remained for four years, when he bought 1(0 acres, a part of the John B. Hanna claim. This has since been Mr. 1’ar- vin's home. He was engaged in the trade of a carpenter and in the mer cantile business at different times during his life, besides conducting his large farm. In February, 1854, Mr. Parvin married Selenia Parker. She and three children survive him. The chil dren are: H. M. Parvin, of Dexter; Mrs. Ida Williams, of Dexter; and Mrs. Jennie Shaffler, of Gettysburg. S 1» Mr. Parvin was a conservative bus iness man. safe and reliable. He ac cumulated a good deal of this world's goods and was one of the county's most substantial citizens. He will be greatly missed by everyone who knew him. The funeral will be held tomorrow at 10 a. ui., with interment in the Pleasant Hill cemetery. Rev R. G. Callison will have charge of ¡he ser vices. A USEFUL KITCHEN New York, Dec. 18.—Willie Hop- pe, the boy billiard champion, has just reached his majority, which he signalized by a challenge to the world for a billiard match. In a statement which he issues he says: “To show the public that I am sin cere in my statement to help put bil liards where it belongs, here is a challenge to the world. 1 will play any billiard payer in the world a three, four, five or six-night match, 500 points a night, at either style of game, 18-inch balkline, cine shot, or 18-inch balkline, two shots, for the sum of from $1,000 to $10,000, the match to be played in any city i agreed upon.” I al. iwtty '•'■¡th a plain bi«*, '"k. or if the material |s plato g ftrfp of pimd bw. ing may be used.

He went away that fateful day. His head erect and proud; His eye was bright, his step was light. His brow was free from cloud. Ills handsome face, his manly grace, His perfect figure strong, Caught many an eye admiringly As he passed the street along. he came back—alas, the wrack! — He was a fearsome sight; Gone were his toes and half his nose, 1 Both eyes were shut up tight. Iieft was one tooth, his ribs, for- sooth, Were stove in on each side, And which was mud and which was blood Had closest look defied. The doctor said they’d sewed his head.

Naturally there are those who claim a victory for both men. but Jeffries is generally supported in the Justness of his verdict. Billy Papke is resting in a Turk ish bath house today with a terribly beaten face and a soreness of heart. In a storm of disappointment he declared after the fight that he in tended to quit the ring for good. This is not taken very seriously and after the bruises have worn away Billy will probably be himself again. The fact that Papke shows marks of the battle does not mean hat Kelly out-fought him. It was the fact that Papke showed himself the aggres sor at all times in addition to hav ing Kelly in bad trouble that earned him a draw. Superb ring generalship or luck saved Kelly from a knockout tn the fourth round. Papke caught him a clip with his left to the jaw. Kelly fell flat and Jeff counted nine over him before he found his feet. Eugene lodge. No. 11. A. F. & A. M. , has elected new officers for the ensuing term as follows: W. M . Y. D. Hepslll: 9.
