Commissioners IIol brook and of Multnomah county met with our Commissioners Court on Tuesday last when the cost bill In the case of the State v. X. N. Sleeve was audited. The bills were adjusted here but warrants to pay the same will be drawn in Multno mah county, an order to that effect having been made by Judge McHride Attorney Bat-ley. Mr. Cleeton's dep. utv was nresent to protect the Inter oats of Washington county while District Attorney Lord appeared for Multnomah county. Mr. Win. Wtl.lt, the complaining witness in the case or the State v. w M. Hubbel is incensed that the de fendent told a story which seems to be some distance from the truth. Mr Welch says he never gambled with Hobbel or played at cards with him for any other purpose and further he does not believe that any oi me ueign bors won money from him for the si in Die reason that he never had any to lone. The truth of the matter is, Hubble plead guilty to the Indict ment and the state had no opportun ity to call Mr. Welch to the witness stiind or any one else. Mr. W. II. McEldowney, Superin tendent of the Broad mead farm in Yamhill county is spending a few davs in Hlllsboro. He reports that his farmimr operations have been quite profitable this year though not to the extent they might have been had the company kept its wheat a few weeks longer. The most profita ble crop raised was 12000 pounds of red clover seed, lie had more man 100 acres in clover this year. The first cutting yielded over two tons to the acre while the seed fame Jroni the aftermath. An Increased acre age will be nlanted to clover this year. Mr. McKldowney finds that clover grow quite as well on the South Yamhill as In Washington county. Within the next six week's Mr. John Milne will make another radi cal change In the Internal arrange ment of his mill at Hlllsboro. Mr. Milne came to Hlllsboro about 1871 and built a small mill that made the bwt flour in the valley. Soon It was necemary to enlarge, and he did not hesitate to incur the additional out lay since he got again the best. As improvements were made he found It mvemary to remodel his buhrs to suit the demand. After this the rol ler process was Introduced to the pub lic and Mr. Milne adopted it about the same time that the LaCrcole mill in Polk county was fitted up. These two were the only mills on the west Lie of the Willamette that used the roller process. Then the machinery was the best to be had, but restless American genlua lias found new ways and cheaper for making a bet ter grade of flour which Mr. Milne now adopts. He throws out his old rollers and Introduces new patterns and larger. He also discards the old bolter device and puts in the Univer sal Bolter, a machine that has been on the market but a year. These ad ditions insure quality and quantity. It is quality however that Mr. Milne l seeking though as the price of wheat advances quantity is not to be d.led. With the refitted mill, seventy five barrels will be a no greater capacity than thirty is with the machinery that now goes out. The new bolt and rolls are expensive and are not kept In stock here but have to be ordered from the fsotory in the east hence the delay of six weeks. Only two or three mills In the state have (he new bolt but all will have to adopt it or be classed with the old things. Universal bol ter is on the same principal as our mothers old hand sifter. The officers of Gen. Ransom Post, No. CU, O. A. U., Oen. lUnsoru Corps, No. 47, W. R. C, and the Sons of Veterans were publicly In stalled in Odd Fellow's hall last Fri day. After the ritualistic ceremonies had been concluded, Congressman Tongue delivered a very eloquent ad dress. After touching on the work the old soldier has done, and its re sult, the debt the nation owes its de fenders, the speaker took up some new questions; notably the recently announced sllcy of International arbitration. He considered the un certainty of a verdict and the diffi culty in the way of enforcing an award. There are certain classes of disputes that may be proierly arbi tratedboundary questions com mercial balances and the like, but when national honor Is at issue, we must bo ready to. maintain our right with our good strong arm if neces sary. Those be things that cannot be measured with money. The ad dress found a hearty response. To conclude, hard tack and Iteans, with coffee, were served, though It is proper to say that the lteliel Cors made some additions in the shape of elegant cake, Jellies, Jams, pickles and baked fresh meats. The officers for the ost are II. L. Lock, P. C; U. N. Hale, 8. V. C; B. K. Haines, J. V. C; V. K. Hinn, hr.p!a5&; Jas. McCulloch, (1. M.; Chas. Bowen, (). D.; E. O. Tate, O. O.j J.

After the installation ceremon ies the ladies of the Degree or Honor served luncheon. Past Grand W ork- man W. 1. Hare was installing officers for the workman and Mrs. W. D.

After a brief acute Illness, Robt Imbrle died last Tuesday at the rest dence of his son, J. A. Imbrle, at 3:45 o'clock p. m. The deceased has been lu Kxr health since the death of his wife, which occurred about rive years ago, but, with the excep tion of a bad siell about a year ago, which confined liiiu indoors, he was able to attend to his business till last Saturday. During the past Ave years his food was not properly asHimllated and there was not blood euough to support his vigorous habits or life. Robt. Imbrle was born in Ohio, August 21, 1831, hence at the time of his death ho was past 61 years of age. lie went with his parents to Illinois at the age or 7 years, remain ing there till after his marrlf with Mlas Mary Ann McGee. Accompa nied by his young wife, he, in 1859, came to Oregon for a time living with bis brother James near Columbia aca demy. Then he bought the Ed Lenox and the east half of the Zichary do nations, 0 miles easterly from Hllls boro- where he rtnitlwl up to the time of death. Here he conducted farming interests on a large scale and had a uiodt'l home. Fine stock was his (atsHion, and his patronage of the stock ghnws or the--roiinty and or the state was most cflii-ient. Iso fair in this county was held that Robt I&brlc did not attend. For a long time he carried the financial manage ment of tho Washington County Agricultural Society on his own shoulders. His hulnes ventures were always Uiltl and successful His charities, too, were on the same liberal scale and many a poor neigh bor will miss him when an oppor tunity to work for bread is needed Three brothers, James, David and Robert settled In this county. All are now dead. David went first In 1881, James followed In 1887 and now Jtolx-rt Joins them. Robert was a member of Tuality lodge, No. 6, A. F. A A. M. He was one of the charter members of the West Union Grange, but when the Grange sur reudered its charter he affliliated with the Hillsboro Grange and was a leading spirit in the organization But politics had no attraction or rather oiHce holding. He never sought office, but was always active ly Interested for the preferment of his friends provided they were on the republican ticket. He was staunch suporter of the principles of the republican ticket. The children of the deceased are J, A. Imbrle. now clerk of the circuit and county court of this county, T, H. I rubric, El izslH-th Freeman, Ella Williams, Frank Imbrie, Maud Maud Williams and R. Imbrie. All live in WaMhington county except Jane, who, with her husband, Mr, Benson, lives near Cottage Grove, Lane county. Three children died in Infaucy, and one John, next younger than J. A., died at the age of 17 years. Atl the living children with their wives, are present to at tend the runeral, which occurs unlay at II o'clock at West Union. A double sorrow is upon the home of Mr. J. A. Imbrie, for while his father Is lying a corpse in his own house, his wife's rather, W m Mauzee, has gone to his long sleep in the old homestead near West Union, having died only 20 houre before Robert Imbrie. Mrs. J. A. Imbrle is all but prostrated by this great situation, but her heroism sustains her and she comforts her children who wail for grandpa's loving caresses. WILLIAM .MAI ZEE. As almve hinted, William Mauzee, another early pioneer, died at his homestead near West Union on the evening of the 4th Inst. He was born in Kentuoky March 10, 1819, whence it is seen that he is nearly 78 years old. lie came to Oregon, a single man in 1843, and located on Tualatin Plains, where he settled the Mauzee D. L. C. This tract has been his home and Is left intact to his estate. In 1847 he wedded Miss Eleanor Evans anil soon after tho discovery of gold in California in J' 19 he went gold digging taking his wife with him. While in California his oldest son, Thomas, was born. All the other of the five were born In Washington county They are Luclnda Jane Ballard, of Seattle, Thos. A. .Mauzec, now lu Mexico, Maria Beagle, Pendleton, Anna M. Imbrie, Hillsboro, am Mary L. Smith, of California. All attended the funeral yesterday, ex cept ' Thomas, who could not be reached by telegraph. Win. Mauzec was a successful farmer and a con seivative business man, and while he accumulated no hoards of gold, he was4n easy circumstances, owing no man a cent and having a balanee in the bank. Win. Muzee was a farmer, skilled in his calling and interested In what belonged to agriculture. He was a charter mem Iwr of the West Union Grange P. of H. ami its master for several years when finally its charter was surrendered he with others of his neighbors Joined the Hillsbore Grange, Like his neighbor Robt. Imbrie lie never sought KIitical pre lerment but always conscientiously exercised the duties of a citizen by attending the primaries of his party and the xlling place on election day. His wife Eleanor died in 1801. In 1809 he wedded Miss Martha Jones of Kentucky w ho survives him. The funeral at West Union was largely attended yesterday by his old neigh bors who will sadly miss their mend with whom many of them have grown old together. 101 KT HOISE SEH.H. CliU'VIT UURT.

The house was througed during the whole afternoon and evening. Refreshments were served to all and the evening was passed in games, singing and conver sation to the great enjoyment of all present. Although Mr. Starr has been in Forest Grove but a few weeks, he has already found the way to the hearts of many of the people nd we bespeak for him great suc cess in his labors. One of the hardest foot ball games ever seen In Forest Grove was played on the University grounds New Year's day. The opiosing teims were F'orest Grove and Battery A. of the O. N. G. The home team were greatly over matched as fat as weight was concerned end were gen erally considered to lie the losers be fore the game opened. But when quick, snappy playing soon told on the visitors who seemed to lose their grip during the second half. The Uattery boys went home defeated. They acknowledged they had been andsomely treated and said : "Don't tell us that farmers can't play foot ball." A NEAT CAI.EMIIR. There are many varieties of calen dars being distributed this year.
