James Ridgway was born Jailunr 10, 1S12, in Lincoln county, Kentucky; died at his home near Lebanon, Ore gon, Nov. 30, 1SSS. Whi-n a youth of 17 years Mr. Ridgway removed from Kentucky to Illinois, where at the age of 20 lie made a profession of the re ligion of Christ and united with the Methodist Episcopal church, in which church he lived a faithful member until his death.- He came to Oregon in 1S52 and resided here his remaining days. During the thirty-six years of his residence In the State he had but one home his donation claim about one mile east of this town. So then he was truly a citizen of Linn county, and was one of her good and honor able citizens. .Though very plain and unpretentious, he was a man of ster ling integrity, and interested himself in the development and advancement of his community and surrounding country. He loved " whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever tilings are just, hatsoever things are pure whatso ever things are of good report," and did what he could to build up that which would bene tit and bless human ity around him. He was one of the founders of Santiam Academy, located here in his neighborhood. He hauled nearly, if not quite all, the lumber which composes the building, and he was one of the school's long and hon ored trustees." In his death a good and useful citizen is taken from our midst, but there are works of his and an in fluence which survive and remain with us. These are such that none need be ashamed. An aged wife, five children and many frieuds mouru the loss they sustain in his departure. Walton Skipwortii. Xtcllp of the Sun. A special feature in the celebration of the Xew Year's day approaching will be an eclipse of the sun, gotten up especially for the occasion. The eclipse will be total over a strip 120 miles wide, running through California, Da kota and Montana, nearly to Hudson Bay. California comes in for the lion's share, as usual, as the shadow comes ashore about the location of the Lick observatory, whe.e very elaborate preparations have been made for ol serving the eclipse. Harvard Univer sity will send a party out to California to observe the eclipse, and savants from Eastern institutions will also visit this coast for the same purpose. The eclipse will be only partial in Oregon, beginning at Portland at 12:00 and ending at 12:ol P. i. It will hardly !x? worth while to prepare any smoked glasses through which to view it, ss such preparations are likely to be ren dered futile hv clouds, mist or rain. yCVs ar For noveltUs in dressing Gunffrs to th.f Trout. re glad to note the elegant Grar.ge hall on Sand ridge.

Merchants have their boards Of trade and this is all right, for th-y need them); me chanics and tradcsinrn have their va rious ur.i ns, and it is nothing but right that farmers should have tilth crranet. their halls and places of met-t- t ing. We bid them God-speed in all eases, al- their laudable and honest efforts to elevate their profession, and to protect themselves against the greed and op pression of monopolists. CArTAIN WM. ' VAUGHAN. dipt. Wm. Vaughan crossed over the river on the ISlh of last month. At the time of his death he was living some eighteen miles southeast of Brownsville. We learn the following facts in the history of this remarkable and useful man from Mrs. Luther White. He was horn Oct. 10, 1S07, in Virginia, and about the year 1840 moved to Missouri.' In 1S45 he came to this valley prospecting for a home, went back to Missouri the next year, and in 1819 raised a largo colony and crossed the plains with ox teams, hav ing in all about seventy wagons. He settled on the Calapooiaeastof Browns ville, where he raised a- family of twelve children, all of whom married and settled in Oregon. Capt. Vaughan brought the first sheep that were ever brought to this valley, and was the first man to engage In that industry in all this valley. He was honest to the core," and was noted for his great probity of char acter, and his hand was ever open to help the poor and newly. Hundreds of immigrants remember his many acts of kindness to the settler. It is Impossible to calculate the benefit of such a life and character of such a man to this country. He deserves a monument "more lasting than marble and more durable than brass." ACADEMY NOTES. One of our students, Miss Lizzie Mc Kinney.was married Wednesday, Nov. 2Sth. Mr. W. O. Trine, a former student of Santiam Academy, has gone to Sacra mento, Cal., to spend the winter.

The question for debate at the liter ary soeiety next Monday evening is, "Resolved, that prohibition will suc ceed by having n distinct platform in stead of uniting with other parties." Miss Edwards has been sick two days the past week, and Miss Lizzie Reed has taken her place in the pri mary department. We are glad to see Miss Edwards back again; also are glad to have Mi3 Reed back in her owu room. THE PLACE TO BUY YOU11 HOLIDAY OC013 -IS AT- J. A.
