Thomas Tallman, who lives near the
condenser, waa taken seriously ill Tues
day night and Dr. Tamieaie waa hastily

dangerous condition.

Fred Adams met with an accident re

During the month of May 2,086 tick-
els were sold at the Southern Pacific
depot In this city for Portland, and 320
tickets to Forest Grove. These were all
one-way ticketa. During the same
month 100 caroads of hay, oats and
milk were billed from Ibis station; sev
en carloads of Inmber were sent out last
week, and the condenser ships from two
to three carloads ot milk daily. This
goes to show that things in Hillsboro
are moving right along.
Mrs. J. W. fewell and daughter Mary
left last Sunday morning for La Grande
to attend the funeral of her brother-in-law,
C. C. Frazier, whose death in Cali
fornia was announced in this paper last
week. Mr. Frazler's son, who brought
the body of his mother to LeGrande
for burial about a month ago, waa un
able to return to his father before he
had passed away. The funeral occurred
on Wednesday.
We acknowledge an invitation to the
Commencement at the University of
Oregon, which will be held June 23rd to
the 20th. The graduating class numbers
fifty-five men and women, from all parts
of the state, the largest class that has
ever been graduated from an Oregon in
stitution. In addition to the asual com
mencement exercises, the musical pro
gram of each dav w ill be exceptionally
attractive. The railroads have granted
a round trip rate of one and one-third
fare to those wishing to attend these ex
ercises.
Complying to an invitation of Judge
Goodin, one day the first of the week,
"to take a ride out into the country and
et a little fresh air," the editor of this
paper took a seat beside the genial judge
and enjoyed a five hours' drive through
as fine a section of farms and beautiful
country homes as can be found any
where, and over a stretch of road that
lias no superior in Oregon. We hav
often heard of the .''horrible" roads in
Washington county, but on the Farm
lngtou-Portland road, leading east from
the Farmington bridge for two and a
quarter miles ia a stretch of road that is
a credit to everv man living along the
highway, and what is better -still, the
road will be made better from year
to year. For this great improvement
the traveling public can thank 8. K
Olson, Andrew Jack, D. M. Mclnnis,
Loss. M. Johnson, Judge Nicodemus,
Geo. J. Jack, J. Boge, Fred B. Clark,
Alex Bews, J. J. Jack and Sol Jack.
Some time ago theie gentlemen went be
fore the county commissioners with a
proposition that if the board would put
trie road In proper shape (bar would
agree to keep it in good order by
dragging, rolling and grading, for a per
iod of five years from June 1, 1W07 and,
to dig and keep open outlet drains from
the road through their.respective farms,
sufficient let to all water drain from the
roadside. This the commissioners
agreed to do and for $350 got S. E. Olson
to do the work, which was finished only
last week. Mr. Olson, with the help of
his neighbors, whose namea are men
tioned above, went to work with a will
and now the Farmington Portland road
is a credit to any section and a model
other part of Washington county would
do well to pattern after. Our drive led
us to Scholls ferry where D. B. Reasoner
and a force of men are putting in an 80
foot Howe truss span bridge which, when
completed, will be 236 feet in length.
Mr. Reasoner ia doing good work and
harrying it along as fast as possible.

Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Greer leave next
week for Hillyard, Wash., a suburb of
Spoksne, where Mr. Greer hss property
snd where they will make their future
home. Mr. and Mrs. Greer hava IU-mI
'n Hillsboro eight years and ten years
in Forest (irove, and they leave a host
of friends in both cities. Mr. Greer Is
in poor health and it is aincerely hoped
the change of climate from Oregon to
Washington will be very beneficial and
his life prolonged many years. He and
bis wife leave Hillsboro with the God
speed of all.
Wm. Conneli has added very much to
appearance of hia Third street property
by putting a coat of paint on his resi
dence; Mrs. Susie Morgan has made hor
fine home on Second street look like
new by the magical touch of the paint
er's brush; Mrs. Siegrist has added a
porch to her nretty horns on Third
street; Dr. Wood has ordered all his
tenants out ot ths wooden structures be
tween the Shute Bank ami Tualatin
Hotel, and on July Ut will break ground
for double brick store, and it is said
the Grsnge may erect a handsome brick
block between W. O. Donelson'a snd
the Nelson Co. hardware store. New
residences are going up in many parts of
town, and though there ie no stir or ex
citement about the matter, the steady
march ol improvement is going on In
Hillsboro. If a few unsightly boles in
the sidewalks and planking on Main and
Second streete were repaired and replac
ed by new plank, the strangers who come
and go, would have lees reason to knock
the county seat because ot ite neglect in
keeping its walks and streets in decent
repair.
The sermon before the graduating
classes was delivered by Rev. L. F. Bel
knap in the M. E. church last Sunday,
the house being crowded to the doors.
Mr. Belknap gave as hia text for his
baccalaureate sermon ProT. 4 7: "Wis
dom is the principal thing; therefore
get wisdom, and with all thy getting get
understanding." The sermon wss a
masterpiece. Following is a brief synop
sis: "Many have great learning but
fail for not noting the relation of things.
Education means to draw out, to de
velop, and make us masters of ourselves.
Man is a trinity in unity, body, mind
aod soul. True education must evenly
develop his body, hia intelligence, his
moral character and nature. Why
should we be educated? First, for our
own sake; second, for the sake of our
fellow beings; third, for the honor and
glory of the Creator who made us. by
take care of our bodies? In the great
problems ot life, there is need of a
strong mind in strong body." The
speaker quoted President Roosevelt, who
has a certain sort of contempt for a man
with soft, useless hands. "Boys, especi
ally, from the lives they lead, need to
care for their bodies. Avoid bad habits.
Great numbers of volunteers were re
jected during the call of our country for
defenders. The time may come when
our land may need protection, but me
cigarette boy will have uo place. To be
perfect physically ia not enough. Mind
rules the body. Learn to think lor
yourself. Face great problems and set
tle thsin. Strive for the best. The
trained Intellect has the advantage.
Good physique and trained mind are
not enough. The moral nature hould
be strong and well disciplined. Educa
tion of the body and mind without a
moral and spiritual training is dan
gerous thing. Neither would I empha
sise the spiritual. When this ts done
to the neglect of the intellectual, the re
sults is fanatics and religioua cranks. 1
velop systematically. Io dPt
mente of lite the world Is calling lor

The following historical and financltl
report to the congregation at the dedica
tion of Zion Presbyterian church, Reed
ville, baa been handed us for publica
tion :
On the second Sabbath of January.
l'JOl, Mr. Robinson held the first Pres
byterian service in this community.
Prior to. that time various denomina
tions had occupied the ground, but eack-
eventually ceased and left the field des
titute of any gospel preaching. A Salf
oain school was sometimes maintained,
but naturally declined as the services
were broken off. The school house wss
always open for religious service, but as
time went on many felt the need of
church building where greater respect
could be given to God's name and wor
ship. In January, l'.M)2, steps were tak-
en to secure a lot in view of building
church, and W. M. I -add to favor the es
tablishment of A church and donate
lot. The condition of the community at
that time however, was not favorable to
this project, so nothing waa done until
February, l'.KKS, when the matter waa
again taken nu and W. M. lald referred
to Martin Winch. Again there was de
lay and nothing was done until early
last year when our pastor wrote to Dr.
Hill asking him to give us his personal
influence. He turned the letter over to
Dr. Holt requesting him to take up the
matter w hich he did and finally a deed
was given by the 1-add and Reed estate
for the land upon which the church now

When a man leaves home in the evening it is be
cause he seeks amusement. The best way to keep him
home is so give, him the amusement there. Make
home a competitor of downtown, tho club, tho cafe,
the theatre and the concert hall. No ono thing will
furnish so much amusement for so many peoplo, so
many times, and in so many ways as the Edison
Phonograph.
Talk about versatility! If you had a brass band
on tap and several leading concert hall singers on sal
ary, and two or or three funny men to crack jokes,
and a beautiful soprano to sing ballads, you couiu noi
give the same amount of varied entertainment that
the Edison Phonograph gives by simply changing
records.
You can hear the whole program at our store.
The prices on Edison goods are the same anywhere in the
U.S. If you buy here you have no freight to pay whtcu means
something about $3 oo.
