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.

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.

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

Reynolds and Broadhead accused the
marshal of not doing his dutv in en
