The result of the first five months’ run and return* were considered favorable The stock subocribed was $1.300.and the company obligated itself several, hundred dollars to complete the factory, which it expects to pay off the coming season.

Died, on the 3rd inst., Mrs. Melinda Thompson, wife of .Mr. W. S. Thompson, after a lingering sickness of two years and a half. The deceased’s maiden name was Melinda Aigleson, and she was born on April 10, 1817, in the state of Ohio. She was married to W. S. Thompson, in the year 1888, in Wisconsin, and they came to Oregon in 1889. Some years ago she was converted to Christ and united with the M.E. church. Her hus band realises that he has lost an affec tionate wife and can bear witness to the genuineness of her Christian faith. The funeral took place on Wednesday, and was conducted by Rev. G. Sykes. Mrs. Laura M. Jones has filed a divorce suit against her husband, Wal ker F. D. Jones, who was well known in Tillamook county at one time as the editor of the Tillamook Headlight and figured some in republican politics. These parties were married on the 13th Ma-ch, 1892, in Tillamook county, and lived together as husband and wife un til the 29th August, 1909. Plaintiff claims that defendant, wi hout cause or provocation, willfully deserted her There are two children of this union. Plaintiff pays for a decree annualling the marriage contract, the custody of the children, and to debar defendant from all right in a block of land in the town of Garibaldi. After several years monopoly of the transportation and passenger business between Tillamook and Astoria, the Pacific Navigation Company is to have opposition, tor the Neha’.em Transporta tion Company has put on the tug Geo. R. Vosberg, which has been fitted up for the purpose, on the run between the two cities. The Nehalem company has cut the passenger rate to $3.50 and freight to $3.50 per ton from Portland, and should the Elmorc people reduce fares the Nehalem Company propose .to do the same, keeping their rates 50c. Inflow the Elmore rates. Thus it can be seen that Tillamook is to enjoy a cut rate, something which is not often experienced in Tillamook. We are sorry to have to announce the death of another promising young man of Tillamook, who has been cut off while in his voting manhood and when the world looked bright before him. It is C. W. Vaughn,son of Mr. and Mrs. W. N. Vaughn, which occurred on Satur day at his parents’ residence at Bay View after but a few days’ illness. He was taken down with pneumonia the previous Wednesday, and the attack ! proving so severe it carried him off in a ! few flays. He was greatly respected ithroughout the county and the idol of his parents and relatives, so his death, | coming so sudden, caused deep sorrow in his family. The deceased was 24 years of age, and was a memlier of Star ' Lodge, A O.U.W., of Tillamook City, having joined it about four years ago ■ and carried an insurance of $1.900 made pavable to his mother. The funeral took ; place on Monday, the burial services ! being conducted bv the officers of Star Lodge, and according to the ritual df the A.OI’.W., both at the house and grave, where there was a large number friends. There were i i of sympathising some fifty Workmen present, who, after the services at the house, formed a pro cession and proceeded the body of their departed brother to the silent city of the dead, where it was consigned with deep sorrow to the grave. A council meeting was held on Mon day evening with Mayor J. L. Briggs in the chair and with all the councilmen present. Bills audited and allowed were : as follows " Ci tv Recorder ............... . $11100 4Í.IIO Ci tv Marshal ...............

When the bill of the city marshal came up to l»e voted upon, it caused quite a dis cussion, as the marshal'« salary had been raised $5 by the previous council until such time as the warrants were at par again. It was stated that the marshal was receiving face value for Ins warrants and Councilman Remolds ob jected to paying the bill. Councilmen Reynolds and Broadhead accused the marshal of not doing his dutv in en forcing the ordinances, when the latter retorted that he did not have to do so 6, 1902 £1.50 per year on the say so of a few’ of the councilmen, consecutive weeks in the official news A Card of Thanks. and that he was trying to make it as paper of the countv, if a weekly, and Mr. and Mrs. W.
