1624. Opposite Hotel Oregon, corner of
Second and Cascade St.
The friends, neighbors and comrades
of the late John VV. Hinriohs, one of
Hood River's eatilest pioneers, who
passed away at his home on the State
road Saturday afternoon, crowded the
Anbury Methodist church, where funer
al services were conducted Monday af
ternoon at 2 o'clock, by Rev. Troy
Shelley, and Rev.'J. L. Hershncr, both
old time friends and pioneer ministers.
Beautiful floral offerings banked the
the foot of the pulpit and the space
around the coffin. A prayer was offered
by Rev. Young.
Mr. Hinrich, whose death was caused
from heart trouble, had reached the
age of 75 years. He was a native of
Hamburg, Germany. When a young
man, 21) years of age he came to New
York. Two years later he crossed the
plains with a party traveling by ox
train, settling in Arizona, where he was
employed by the government in erect
ing buildings at government posts.
In 18(53 Mr. Hinrichs, who had gone to
Fort Crook, Calif., enlisted in the
Union Army. For three years he served
as quartermaster, at Fort Bidwell and
other points.
In 188 Mr. Hinrichs remov'ed to
Paolo, Kan., and in that year he was
married to Eliza Ellen Sims, who sur
vives him. For a number of years he
engaged in the furniture and undertak
ing business in Paola. In 1873 he and
Mrs. Hinrichs came to Portland by way
of San Francisco. For a year he wae
associated in the furniture and under
taking business in that city with Jo
seph Levi.
Mr. Hinrichs came to Hood River in
1874. His stories of the early days
were interesting. The valley, now
covered with so many apple trees was
one mighty forest of virgin first and
pines. Mr. Hinrichs homesteaded a
tract on the West Side. His old home
stead place, now highly developed com
mercial orchard places, has been sub
divided. Portions of it are owned by
B. H. Shepard, R. H. Wallace and
Prof. C. 0. Thompson.
These pioneer days were recalled in
the brief funeral address delivered by
Rev. Troy Shelley, who for many years
was a neighbor of the Hinrichs family
in the old Odell district, where Mr.
Hinichs and family removed alter dis
posing of their West Side place. Rev.
sue ev nam a nign muuie to me ue-
Darted oioneer. "1 owe a great debt of
uratituile to the Hinrichs family, said
Mr. Shelley, "mere were never netier
neighbors. In times of sickness they
were always ready and willing witn
their aid, be it night time or day
time."
Mr. Hinrichs was Hood River s hrst
undertaker. He continued his contract
ing work after he came here and built
the depots and bridges on tne u. k. et
N. line between Portland and The
Dalles. Mr. Hinrichs was considered
.. . t ..- . i
one ot liooo ttiver a most, nuccessiui
business men. He had amassed a con
siderable fortune, and at the time of
his death he was vice-president oi tbe
First National bank.
The place owned by Mr. Hinrichs in
the Odell district is now partly occu
rred bv the townsite. When Mr. Hin
richs disposed of the Odell property he
and his wife removed to their home on
the State road, where his death oc
curred. In addition to his widow, Mr. Hin
richs is survived by three children:
C. D. Hinrichs, assistant cashier ol the
First National bank of this city Walter
J, Hinrichs, of Geneva, and Mrs. C. M.
Larson, of Scappoose.
The funeral services were in charge
of the local Masonic lodge, of which
Mr. Hinrichs was a member. Members
of Canby Post, of which he was a
member, also participated. The hon
orary pall beareis were composed, of
Grand Army veterans as follows: San
ford Smith, S. F. Blythe. John A. Wil
son, Newton Clark, T. D. Tweedy and
S. Copple. The active pall bearers
were: J. E. Robertson, J. R. Nickel
sen, Geo. 1. Slocom, L. N. Blowers, K.
E. Newby and Joe L. Thomison.
The funeral services were directed
bv the Anderson Undertaking Co.

According to Boston's own history of
ioif thp first annle tree planted weBt
of the Atlantic was'planted within the
;o limits nf the citv of Boston, on
ivomnr'. island, said Curtis Guild, of
Rr,tnn in nn address before the Na
tional Shippers' convention, 1914. The
land was assigned by the general court
of the colony to Governor Winthrop,
the first governor of Massachusetts, on
tka anorinl condition thati he should
plant it with an orchard of apple trees,
and also (shades of the prohibition
Puritans look down upon us!) with a
vinevard. that the new colony might
nnt h lnr-kinu for intoxicating stimu-
be interested to learn
ii,. ...m luncrnnpe of the act: "On
the 3d of April, lt32, at a court of as
sistance, the island called Conant's isl
and, all the liberties and privileges of
fishing and fowling, was demised to
John Winthrop, F".sq., the present gov
ernor; and it was further agreed that
the said John Winthrop did covenant
and promise to plant a vineyard and an
orchard on the same, and that the
heirs and assigns of the said John Win
throp for one and twenty years pay
yearly to the governor th tilth part of
all such fruits and growth as shall be
yearly raised out of the same, the lease
to be renewed from time to time by
the heirs and assigns of said John Win
throp, and the name of the said island
is changed and it is to be called '1 he
Governor's Garden." The name has
since changed to Governors island. It
seems the governor carried out his
pledge and did plant the apple trees,
though he seems to have made rather
a failure in regard to vines.
The vineyard, it is to be feared,
failed, but as a matter of fact tbe
yearly dole of apples amounted to two
bushels, which were handed over every
year, nut to the t a payers, but to the
legislators, who, in those wicked days
of graft, openly consumed this prop
erty of the people during the sessions
of the general court of Massachusetts.
In other words, the legislators and not
the people received that magnificent
income of the comonwealth.
To go back from the origin of apple
culture in the United States to the
origin of apple culture in the world is
perhaps the longest step that any man
was ever.asked to take, for it would be
necessary, almost, to go back to the
time of the pterodactyls and dinosaurs
to arrive at the blossoming of the lirst
apple tree. One of the most interest
ing ways to study history is thiough
etymology, through the most enduring
of monuments, human speech, which
carries down in every word we speak
some remote fact of history, even in
prehistoric times. Apples and pears
have been found with relics of, the
stone age. Apples and pears, driedcr
preserved or petrified, Lhave been found
among the relics of the Swiss lake
dwellers, who formerly lived, as you
remember, on large platforms built on
piles over the large lakes ofjnorthern
Switzerland. Apples and pears go back
to the very beginning of civilization as
does the oldest of known vegetables,
asoaragus. the name of which, of
course, is Greek, meaning simply
"sprouts," probably the first vegetable
known to man. The Chinese, you will
remember, cook bamboo Bprouts today.
Now the word "pear" is of Greek
origin. But the origin ofj the word
"apple" is lost in mystery. Nobody
knows who first invented the name,
what its original significance was or
what it means. We only know that
"apple" is found in the German lan
guage, and alos, in a slightly changed
form, yabloco, is found in the Russian
language. The more familiar Latin
name is pomum. It really doesn't mean
apple; it means fruit.
The apple, as I have told you, in the
English language and the German lan
guage, has been given that name for
such an enormous period of time, long
before any language was reduced to
writing.ithat no one knows what was
the origin of the word in that form.
The Latin language had two names for
it, pomum and malum. You will nnn
malum very little used in any modern
language, although melon is another
form of it, meaning a large round iruu
like an apple, but pomum, originally
pplying to all fruit became more par
ticularly aunlied to the apple because
then, as now, it was esteemed the most
valuable and healthful fruit given to
man.
Of course, the most. familiar apple
tory is of the origin of the race in the
first chapter of the Old Testament, the
story of Adam and Eve, where ttieap-
ple is mentioned as a temptation, not
merely on account of its, shall I say
magical powerB, but also because of its
attractions as a delicacy.
In similar fashion story after story
in Greek mythology rests on the apple.
You will remember the particular
one of the apple of discord to which 1
have already referred, witn names
charged a little it is exactly like those
old German house stories, "hausmar
chen," as they are called, which were
collected by the brothers Grimm, where
at some splendid wedding ot a prince
and pricness the wicked fairy comeB in
and spoils the entire happiness of the
occasion, but incidentally does some
service by furnishing the plot of the
story. Thus at the marriage of Thetis
and Peleus the goddess Discord arrived,
not having been invited to the feast,
and presented as a wedding gift a
golden apple on which was inscribed,
"For the most beautiful,'.' and the
three goddesses, Minerva, Juno, the
wife of Jupiter and queen of the god
desses, and Venus, competed as to
which was the most beautiful. Even
in those days bribery cf voters appar
ently seems to have been know. Paris,
you will remember, the Prince of Troy,
was established as the umpire, and
after they were through everybody
wanted to kill the umpire in the good
old style of the fans. Each goddess
offered Paris a gift if he wuld give her
the apple, and he finally. chose Venus
asjthe most benuiful, because she had

GREATEST SCREEN CHARACTER ACTOR
Seen Often at New Electric
promised to give him to wife the most
beautiful wo nan in the world. He
chose Helen, who was the wife of an
other gentleman, but apparently that
made no difference, and in the attempt
to recover Helen the Gteck invaded
Troy and the Trojan war came about.
So, if the apple lies at the root of all
our religion, an apple also lay at the
root of remote antiquity's greatest
war.
There are many other stories I might
relate to you from Greek mythology.
You will remember the celebrated foot
race in which one Greek woman was
even then demanding to be put on a
par with man. 1 don't think she de
manded a vote, but she managed to
beat all the men who competed with
her until she became famous as the
champion runner. Her name was At
lanta. At last she was beaten, not
through man's superior skill, but
through man's superior guile, for Hip
pomencs, who competed with her in
the race carried three beautiful apples
in his hand and whenever she was out
stripping him he dropped an apple.
The woman in Greek as well ah in Jew
ish history was too much tempted by
the apple to follow the straight and
narrow course and every time he drop
ped an apple she stopped to seize it.
Thus Hippomenes won. After the race
he took a terrible risk and married At
lanta, whom he had defeated ; so she
met her match in both senses at the
same time.
