WAS A CREAT SUCCESS
Tuesday was an ideal day for
the Nebraska-Kansas Society
meet, and some three hundred
representatives from the tw o
states, from Yam hill and adjoin
ing counties, gathered at the city
park and enjoyed an old-fash
ioned picnic dinner, renewed
acquaintance, “ reminisced” and
praised Nebraska-Kansas until
one wondered why so many
were kappy and satisfied to leave
a paradise and dwell in the
salubrious state o f Oregon. After
noon exercises were opened with
invocation by Rev.O eo. H. Lee,
pastor o f the Presbyterian
church. A chorus of eight or ten
voices rendered tw o or three
selections, and to M r. I. A. Han

BARN BURNS
On last Mondav afternoon tb e

caught fire in some unknown!
w ay and the building and all its
cbntents were tota lly destroyed.
One o f tbe most distressing
scenes o f tbe casualty w as the
witnessing, by Mrs- Huffman
and the children, the burning o t

$500 which had been the pride
o f the family. They were alm ost

M r. Huffman estimates his loss
at $2000 w ith no insurance.
The volunteer fire companies
responded prom ptly to the fir e '
alarm, but ow in g to tbe lon g
distance to tbe fire and the quick
burning which a barn is alw ays
subjected to, in ert was little they
they coaid do but to prevent the
burning o f the residence which
was near enough to catch fire
from the heat.

The origin o f tbe fire is n ot
known. Mr. Hoffman had a
partial set o f blacksmith to o ls
the barn,
started a fire in the
forge to do some mending and a
spark that remained caused the

to the opinion that children

been the cansé.
