MRS. DEMUTH DEAD.
Sedalians Mourn the Loss of
an estimabie Woman
and Old Citizen.

Yesterday morning al o'clock. nj
the residence Of her son-in-law, Rufus
Easton, Mrs. Mary Demuth died. after
many DAYS of suffering. Under the
circumstances her death was not at all
unexpected. for she had reached the
aye of 20 Yeas, and had been linger-
ing close to the graves brink.
She had lived in Sedalia for many
years and was known and beloved by
a larger number of citizens here than,
perhaps, any other woman in this
community.
She was quite remarkable, no less
for her literary attainments, and gen
orally strong mental power, than for
the sweet Christian spirit that pervaded
her being, and made her life bless
ing and benediction.
She was one of the oldest commune
cants of Calvary Episcopal church,
and the good work she has done there
in will stand as a monument to her
memory more sacred and enduring
than any marble shaft or tablet OF
brass.
She lived noble life in all respects
and when the shadows deepened about
her-when her children and other
kindred stood weeping at her bedside
when the last kiss was given and
the final word spoken, she passed a
saint into the better land.
The funeral services took place at
$50 o'clock this afternoon at Calvary
church. There, where she had for so
many years joined in the services, a
great throng of mourning friends AS
sembled to pay their last tribute of
love and tears.
The services, which were exceed
ingly impressive and beautiful, were
by the rector, Rev. Alex
ander Allen.
When the casket, borne by j. {.
Thompson, A. p. Morey, ID. II.
Smith, j. X. Barrett, o. A. Crandall.
and B. w. Zimmerman, and covered
with appropriate flowers, was carried
down the aisle and out the door, the
said there goes the
last of the earthly part of one who
made the world brighter and sweeter
and better for having livedin it 50 long
and so loyalty.

cal leaders of the Prohibition party
are skirmishing around in a lively
manner to-day 10 secure enough sign
ers Ia obtain certificate of nomina-
ton for Mr.. Mayfield, their nominee
for congress, from Secretary Of State
LeSueur.
Sometime ago they sent in list
of 81 names, but this WIS far
from being sufficient, as Bal are re-
quired in the district. The blunder
was made by the chairman of the
prohibition state committee, and. III
this late day the local leaders find
themselves greatly embarrassed. They
are not only securing all the names
they can in this county, but are like
wise exerting themselves in every

for congressman for the Seventh dis

this is really the intent of the petition.
all the other names printed in the

CORVALLIS STREETs.-Two promi-

in the city this week, spoke very highly
of the drainage of the improved
streets in this city, and claim that the
tile drain has superior advantage over
the stone curbing used on some Of the
improved graveled streets Of the former
place as they observed that the tile
drain not only carried off all the sur
face water, but all the water that would
naturally accumulate in the road bed.
They stated that stone curbing foS
draining graveled streets in Salem had
proved failure, that they would NOT
carry off even the si:rface water which
sank down into the gravel. 1t will be
remembered that a number Of tax
payers petitioned the city council tS
pur in stone curbing in the Second
and Madison street improvement, ihs
stead of tile drains, which had beef
adopted. The stone curbing is MUCK

A lAMESrAbLE SUICIDE.
JAMES H. BROWN ENDS HIssS CARER wlTA
SHOTGUN.

J. H: Brown, a highly respectea
citizen of Benton county, has severed
the thread of life by his own hand, and
shocked his family, relatives, frienda
and the community, in. general, who
received the tidings with sorrowful re.
gret. Mr.. and Mrs. Brown lived Oh
their farm near Philomath, happy,
prosperous and contented to all appear
ances, but during the past few monthf
he was respondent, and at times acted
strangely, and even made threats to
take his life. On Wednesday Of last
week he went to the old home place on
Soap creek, where two of his brothers
reside. These are the facts obtained
from testimony before the coroner'A
jury. Friday morning he informed
the hired man on the place he was go-.
ing out to kill Chinese pheasant.
The brothers, who had been absent
from the house during the day, return
ed about 2 o'clock in the afternoon,
and naturally inquired the where
abouts of James. When told that he
had taken the gun and gone hunting,
the thought flashed through their
minds that he had carried out previous
threats. The fact that he was not in
the habit of going out hunting rendered
to confirm their suspicious. They
promptly instituted "a search and after
short walk found him lying stiff and
dead OH the bank of creek about d
creek about half a mile from the
house. He had evidently used.a small
stick to touch off the trigger of the
gun, while he had placed the muzzle
near his left eye, which had the intend
ed fatal effect. He had previously ex.
pressed desire to die on the old home
place where he was born, and indica-
ton strongly points to the fact that he
went to Soap creek with the intention
of taking his own life. Mr.. Brown
had imany friends who extend their
sympathies to the bereaved family.
He was about 81 years old at the time
of his demise, end leaves wife, ar
aged father, six brothers and three
sisters.

THE Town CLocK-A few days
ago the town clock, with its four face
dial was evidently on periodical
tear. A few months since it was
similarly affected, and the heavy
weights loosened from !their fastenings
dropped through the court house floor,
The big clock was regulated and run
regularly with slight increase in its
speed, until recently it made big
leap forward. Three-fourths of the
people rise in the morning, eat, work
and sleep by the town clock; even the
mill and factory, whistles look on il
with reverential respect. But the
clock was beginning to play sad havoc
with a large proportion Of the popula.
ton. People were getting up in the
morning too early for breakfast, and
arrived at their place of business and
work ahead of time. Monday morn
ing number Of students at the agri.
cultural college arrived at the class
| rooms long before study hours and
thought the forenoon long one. Be-
tween the hours of IL and IL Mon
day morning, the hands on the pom
derous clock were turned back to regu-
lation time, and business and society
now moves with the regular tenor oi
its way. The GAZETTE suggests that
the proper authorities secure some
competent person to look after the
clock and keep it properly regulated
