The Sheridan passenger which
went through Hillsboro at 5:26
last Tuesday evening, was de
railed a half mile west of Forest
Grove by a broken rail, the
smoker and two coaciies going
over in the ditch. John A. Mc
Donald of McMinnville and
Mrs.
E. Bates of Forest Grove, and
her 5-months-old son, were al
most instantly killed, and 25 per
sons injured, some of them seri
ously. The engine, the mail and
baggage cars crossed the trestle
in safety, when the smoker left
the rails and went over the tres
tle, carrying with it the two
coaches. The train was in charge
of Conductor Thompson and En
gineer Zimmerman and Fireman
Trainor. The scene following
the accident was one of wild ex
citement, but only temporarily,
for after the first shock every
one that could turned in and did
all they poasMy could to care for
the dead and assist the injured.
Imprisoned in the coaches the
passengers who were able to
move climbed up the sides and
began breaking the windows in
order to effect their escape. Min
gled with the shouts of the men
were the shrill screams of
frightened women and children.
Miss Grace Hardintr. of Gaston.
was the only passene-er not imnris-
oned, as she was hurled throuerh
an open window a distance of 25
feet, striking in two feet of wa
ter and mud and escaping with
slight injuries.
It was only a short time until
several of the male nassencers
had effected their nscnoe from
the car and the train crew joined
with them in reassuring and
helping liberate the others.
There are two or three houses in
the vicinity and assistance was
also given by the farmers. The
wreck was witnessed from the
dejMit at Forest Grove, and prac
tically the entire population of
the town was soon on the scene.
All the injured who were un
able to do much toward assist
ing themselves were removed
from the overturned cars through
the windows on the upper side.
The three dead arsons were
found beneath the wreckage in
the front part of the first day
coach, which, with the rear of
the smoker, was smashed and
splintered by the two cars being
jammed together. The bodies of
all the victims were more or less
mangled and McDonald's head
was crushed on the side.
The moans of the injured and
the screams of little Florence
Bates, aged about three years,
when she discovered that her
mother and baby brother were
dead, caused the scene to be one
that will not soon be forgotten
by those present. Kind hearted
women, wecpirijj freely in sym
pathy for the little girl, took her
where she could not 8ee the 00(.
ies of the victims and did all they
could to comfort her.
Those who were so badly in
jured as to be unable to walk
were carried to the home of
Farmer Hughes, anj everything
jHissible dene by l(,cai physicians
to make them .comfortable. Few
required the immediate services
of a physician. pIH,cjai train

Death of J. c. Creer.
James C. Greer, who clerked
for his brother, II. H. Greer, in
this city for a number of years,
and later oiened a shoe store on
Main street, which he conducted
until failing health forced him to
close up the business, died at
Hillyard, Wash., February 7th.
of creeping paralysis, after a
year's illness.
Mr. Greer was born in the
province of Quebec, Huntington

they moved to Hillyard.
There were born to them three
children, Mrs. W. T. Glaze,- of
Hillyard; Wash., Leslie C, of
Spokane, and James L., who died
when 3 years of age. About a
year ago he felt creeping paraly
sis coming on, and although ev
erything jossible was done to ar
rest the disease, he gradually
grew worse until death came to
his relief, and he passed peace
fully away.
Mr. Greer was converted ' and
joined the. Methodist church
when 17 years old and lived a
faithful and devoted Christian
life. He was a member of the
I. O. O. F. and the United Work
men, the funeral services being
conducted under their auspices.
He leaves, beside his wife, the
two children mentioned above,
two grandchildren, two sisters,
Mrs. Jane Hare and Mrs. Belle

where. The body was brought
from Hillyard to rorest Grove,
and the funeral held from the M,
E. church on Monday last, Rev,
L F. Delknap of Hillsboro con

Kev. Hiram Gould.
Parsifal al Portland.
It was in the year of 1857 that
the immortal Richard Wagner
first conceived his idea relating
to the grand iossibilities contain
ed in the legend of the "Holy
Grail" for a wonderful spectacle
and drama. It was not until
twenty-five year3 later, namely,
1882, that his idea was carried
out to his satisfaction and the
world was given the glorious
work of "Parsifal." It is said
that his first intention was to
present "Parsifal" simply as a
dramatic production, but was in
duced later to change his mind
and produce it in combination
music form. Dy his doing so,
the world gained two grand pro
ductions instead of the one. It
will forever remain as the grand
est of all music comjwsitions. It
will as surely stand for all time
as the grandest drama ever writ
ten. It requires a trained mma,
a cultivated musician, to enjoy
the music of Wagner. One must
thoroughly understand a thing to
equally enjoy it. Dut the sim
plest tyro in dramatic experience
can understand the exquisite
story of "Parsifal" and under
standing, cannot fail to enjoy it
It is this very quality, simplicity,
of the story and plot, that en
dears the play of "Parsifal' to
the hearts and souls of all those
wKo w tness it. ihere are no
social problems to dissect, neith
er are there any intricate or mys
terious actions seen on the part
of any of the characters in tne
play. Dut as a speciacie mat.
appeals to the visual senses, as a
play tnat in us very naiuisiuvM,
soulful heart interest, absorbing
and thrilling plot that brings trie
color to the cheeks with healthy
excitement, that quickens the
heart s action with every enou
ling instinct and interest watch
ing the gradual unfolding of the
beautiful story, it stands without
a peer in the dramatic firmament
Such is "Parsifal." the play that
required a quarter of a century
of its author genius life to make
it what it is today-tne urama oi
