Mr. Henney came in to see I'he Times-Herald man and to express his admiration for the new ollice building which had been completed since his last visit to Burns. He also said the new court house met with his hearty approval. He believes in progression and thinks it high time we have our public records and ollieers in better quarters. Mr. Henney has resigned as post master at Loma and the oflice has been discontinued. The busi ness of the ollice gained each quarter but it was not enough to justify the responsibility and he gave it up. Du:n Mrs. Martha Baker died m Portland last Saturday directly following an operation on her throat. She had been atllicted for months with a growth and had intended having local phy- secians operate upon her hut after they had made a careful examination they advised her to go to a specialist in Portland. Dr. Smith wrote Dr. Marsden that the operation was most dif ficult and after three hours of "work it was found more exten sive than anticipated, extending down into the chest where its removal was impossible. The growth was cancerous and had completely surrounded the wind pipe which would have caused death in a short time. Tho body was shipped to Ontario for burial. Mrs. Baker was one of the es teemed pioneer women of this section and for mnny years lived on Silver creek. After the death of her husband several years ago she moved with her daughter to this city where she has sinco re sided. She is survived by her daughter, Miss Nina, a most es timable young lady who gradu ated from high school last year; Hobt. Baker is a step son. Mrs. I. A. Williams, of Ontario, is a sister to the deceased.
