Lifes Journey Ended,

At o'clock Sunday morning, April
4, Joel Grayson Koontz died at his
home on Eighth and Lincoln streets,
in this city, aged 81 years and 10 days.
For some lime Mr.. Koontz had been
suffering from Bright's desease, which
was aggravated bv "a fall he received
several weeks since, though he had been
able to attend to his business until about
a week before his death. Deceased was
born in Fayette county, Ind, on March
%, 1880, and when he was still child
his parents moved to Clark county,
H., where he grew to manhood. On
April 3, 1851, he was married to Miss
Ellen D. Brown, and nine children
were born to them, six of whom are
still living, Joel W., Lain L., Elijah
P, Adrian and Werner 81. Koontz, all
residing in or near The Dalles, and
Mrs. Ida j. McHaley, of Dufur. He
also leaves three sisters, Mrs. Caroline
C. Connolly, of The Dalles, Mrs. Eliza
beth Yeargin, of Harrisburg, ILL.,, and
Mrs. Eliza Shuey. of Argenta, Ill.
Mr.. Koontz came to Wasco county

where he followed farming until IL
years ago when his wife died. Then
he removed to The Dalles and en-
gagged in the insurance and real estate
business, having an office in the Chap
man building.
Deceased was indeed one of Gods
noblemen. He was just toward all
men, a friend to the friendless, and
commanded the esteem and respect of
Ill with whom he associated. His
death is loss to the community, not
readily to be filled. The funeral was
by Rev. ]. H. Wood at the
NJ. E. church at o'clock Monday after
1oon, attended by q large concourse of
'orrowing friends,

fact death would be welcome visitor

THE GOOD SHEPHERD HOME.
Lawn Festival This Year VIII BE
Held on June 20.

The annual lawn festival for the ben
eft of the House of the Good Shepherd
will be held on Friday evening, June
Is, on the spacious and beautiful
grounds of the home, located on the
corner of Bloomington avenue and
Twenty-seventh street south. Ticketa
are now for sale for the small sum of
rs cents, and the purchasers thereof
the grounds, but to ice cream and cakes
as we'll. It is expected that the festival
this year will be the most successful
in the history of this good institution.
The sisters during the past year have
had great difficulty in making the two.
ends meet. The entertainment given
for their benefit some months ago at
tn Lyceum theater, though fairly at
tended did not half realize what it would
if times had been better; and the ex-
pense Of running the home and sup
porting the inmates is about as much
as in former years when times were
good. The annual lawn festival this
year should be well patronized by the
Catholics of the entire city. The ladies
are resolved to contribute in every way
to make it a grand success; but the
men are slow to render much encour-
agement by their presence. The
grounds are easily reached by electric
cars from all parts of the city, and the
men this year should go by the hun
dreds instead of by dozens to cheer on
the good sisters in their humanitarian
work. Those of them who cannot con-
veniently go to the festival should not
hesitate to purchase at least two tick
cts when solicitors call upon them.
This is work in which every Catholic
should consider it pleasure and a
privilege to take an active part.

few chosen spirits set it free and made

of servitude will curb the neck and dull

Ole Bull felt intuitively that in order
for Norway to regain its old-ume glory
it was necessary to. awaken its national

centuries, and he set about this work at
