Death of Miss Emma Pierce.

Our little village was greatly shocked
last Wednesday morning by the news of
the sudden death of one ofour most loved
and highly esteemed young ladies, Miss
Emma Pierce. She had been in poor
health for quite a number of years, hav-
ing very serious heart difficulty but
was in her usual health and rode out
Tuesday afternoon returning cheerful
and happy. She PLAYED while on the
organ and wrote two letters and retired
feeling as well as usual. About 70
O'Clock her mother, Mrs. ]. E. Went
WORTH went to her room and found her
dead, having apparently died without a
struggle. The funeral was Friday at 2
p. m, at the church, Rev. w. S. Smith Of
floating. The floral tributes were many
and beautiful, among them was Coates
Ajar," two pillows bearing the name
Emma, and cross and sickle with the
words "At Rest" and many Others, wit
Messing to the love all bore for her. She
was member ofthe Free Baptist church,
also of the Woman's Christian Temper
ance Union. All feel sense of personal
loss and Mr. and Mrs. Wentworth have
the sincere sympathy OF the whole COM
munlty.
Mrs. John A. Rice passed peacefully
away alter a very painful sickness of five
weeks duration, June IA. Mrs. Rice
was very estimable woman. She had
been a Christian for about sixty years
and for the last forty had been mem
Der of the Free Baptist church OF this
place. She had cared for many sick ones
and will long be remembered.

in the bay, the waves breaking
over the Glasgow wharf. They
never hesitated, however, but at
once set about making preparations
to render assistance. Their boats
were swamped, and the gale raging
at the time made it impossible for
them to bail them out. They had
hauled a sl;iff out on the dock be-

which, if brought to d successful
passage will land him on the high
est pinnacle of fame. The bill re-
ferred to is one to prohibit tie use
of profane and obscene language in
public places, and TO piohibit
charivaris. Of the first two pro-
visions Of the bill comment is Use
less as they are but ordinary re-
strictions. But OF the last pro-
vision that will guarantee to every
newly welded couple within the
borders Of the great and glorious
Webfoot state the absolute privilege
of passing the drst nights Of their
connubial state in the silent COM
pany Of the charms Of Morpheus,
with none to rnolest or make afraid,
too much cannot be said in its
favor. The mind at first conception
does not readily grasp the posi-
bilities of good to the state arising
from this bill should it become q
law. AS North Dakota has become
the envy of the world through the
ability of its law courts to unite
unpleasant matrimonial knots, so
will Oregon become known and
envied by the civilized world should
this bill be passed, but in a far diff.
ierent manner. Again the bless

Young people all over the United

boat were transferred to the skiff,
and after a hazardous trip the land
ing was made in safety, though the
skiff was half full of water, and it
looked at times as if nothing would
prevent her from swapping. The
rescued were coming from Marsh
field III sailboat, and about s
O'Clock, when opposite the head of
the North Bend boom, a squall
struck them and capsized the boat.
They got on the bottom, but the
heavy sea kept rolling the boat
over, and they narrowly escaped
drowning several times. They
finally managed to get the boat
right side up, and by laying the
mast and sail across the gunwales,
the prevented her from rolling.
They were powerless, however, to
bail her out, as the seas were
washing over them all the time,
aud they were nearly exhausted
when picked up, having been about
four hours ~ the water.
