Let Us Be Your Watchman To some extent the impression prevails that almost anybody can "fix a watch,” and many only learn by costly experi­ ence that it is not so. The tinker, the natural born mechanic, the genius who can “fix anything,” finds himself at sea when he tackles a fine watch, for the ad­ justment to positions and isochronism requires something besides mechanical skill. There is no minute detail with which we are not familiar in the mechan­ ical and mathematical adjustment of a time-piece. W m . F. D ielschneidfr & B ro ., McMinnville’s Reliable Jewelers.

The announcement of the sudden and severe illness of Mr. Barnhart of the Sheridan Sun was made in The Report­ er last week. Death came to the relief of this brave and good man on last Sun­ day morning, shortly after 9 o'clock. Francis Henry Barnhart was born April 18th, 1849, in Chautauqua county, N. V., on the banks of that beautiful lake of the same name, whieh has since become nationally familiar as the yearly meeting place of that great body of students known as the "Chautauqua Literary and Scientific Circle." The love for the beauties of nature instilled in his youthful mind at this place, remained with him through life. While yet in boyhood he went to Iowa on his own re­ sources, and at Muscatine learned the R oyal ss ~ A bsolutely P ure Makes the food more delicious and wholesome ROVAI BAKIHO Powys CO., NEW VORK. sweet and helpful music at the service on Montlay at the residence. For his family and myself I wish to say from a heart warm with gratitude, that there comes never another time in the life of any of us when the kindly offices of friends are so strongly felt, or our inability to repay so surely made ap­ parent. The presence at the service of the splendid body of friends from both McMinnville and Sheridan attested the esteem in which Mr. Barnhart was held, and as surely impressed his family with their noble love aud sympathy.
