Caparra. near the site of Pueblo Niejo,
across San Juan bay, in Porto Rico, is
now, by more than So years, the first

An Evidence of Prosperity,

1t is generally conceded by economists,
who study the commercial situation of the
country, that the great arteries of railway
travel are a sure indication of it's condition.
a depression in commercial lines means
abandoned business trips and the cancella-
ton OF pleasure travel, while a healthy con.
dltlon OF affairs means business trips and an
increase OF passengers on pleasure bent.
a good evidence that business revival
has gone broadcast over this country is the
Lake Shore Limited" the star train of the
Vanderbilt system, between New York and
Chicago, which is daily comfortably filled.
With a view to taking the best possible care
of its patrons, the New York Central has
arranged to increase the equipment of this
train by placing an additional standard
sleeper on the trains leaving New York and
Chicago Tuesdays, Thursdays and Satur-
days. To the regular traveller the appoint
ments and comforts of this train are well
known, but if you have never made a trip
on it, You owe it to yourself to see and en-
JOY the advance made in comfort and lux
ury in modern railway travel. Remember
the fare is no higher on this train except
between New York and Chicago, while the
accommodations and service place this par
ticuar train conspicuouslv at the head of
the list, when compared with other lines

City, the first newspaper published in
Oregon, and edited by T'Gwilt. 1t was
dated Feb. 5. 1916. ffty-three years ago,
and was Vol. I, No. 1.
Among other interesting articles, was
an editori-.l on Morse's 'late discovery"
of telegraphy and prophesying great
things for it. Beside, there was a cory
of the code of laws which had been
drafted for the territory of Oregon, and
which was to be voted on. and a notice
of the appointment of the editor as
postmaster-general and alec attorney
general, which shows just how import
ant an editor was in those days.
Another item which makes the
Oregonian of today smile, is a notice
headed ''Mail Contract to Let" which
contract provided for tie carrying of
mail between Oregon City and VAN
couver by water every two weeks.
Many other items of interest were
contained therein, and the paper is a
valuable one as relic of former years.

ice on the edges of the river is slushy and
several feet thick and strong enough to
bear tons. All day long people were
crossing back and forth, W while others who
watched were expecting to see the ice
give way. While the ice is broken above
ard coming down lodges beneath, bank
ing up at this point, it is said to be clear
below Crates Point. Unless raging
Chinook makes it's appearance soon,
there is no hope of the river clearing.
Through the kindness of Representa-
tive Roberts we have received an invita-
ton to be present at the capitol tomor-
row to join in celebrating the fiftieth an
niversary OF the extension jof the laws of
the United States over the Oregon coun-
try and the fortieth anniversary of Ore
gon's admission to statehood. The ex-
ercIses will be held in the hall of repre-
sentatives beginning att 9 O'Clock and a
splendid program will be rendered, ad-
dresses being delivered by Ex-Gov. Lord,
Hon. L. B. Cox, Hon. Geo. Williams
and Abigail Scott Du1iway. The best
of music will also be rendered.
And still The Dalles heads the list !;
| this time in the oratorical contest held
at Eugene Friday evening, for the pur-
pose of determining who will represent
the university in the coming intercol-
legiate contest which will occur at Nc
Minnville on March 10th. Among the
| five contestants were two seniors, which
makes the victory for Homer Angel, u
junior, more complete. His subject was
''The Spanish War-Justice, Motive and
Effect" The Guard says Homer is
''known to college fame as most heady
worker on the gridlron, and tie applause
which greeted the judges decision indi-
Gated that it was popular one with the
audience" In a letter written home
Miss Daisy Allaway says when bis
Dalles friends searched for Homer at the
close of the contest in order to congratu-
late him. he was no where to be found
which is characteristic of the young
mau, who never seeks popularity.

A GOOD LIFE ENDED.
Arthur walksr Passes to the Great
Beyond.

So often are we called upon of late to
chronicle the death of pioneers, that it
seems there must soon come a time
when the ''last Leaf upon the pioneer
tree will drop and we shall miss from
our midst each one of those " hom we
have been accustomed to see come in
and out among US as land marks point
ing to days long passed and gone, when
their steps were as light as ours.
Such one was Father Walker, who
it has seemed for years could last but
few weeks longer. And yet there have
been but few Sundays when he was not
seen in his accustomed place in the
Methodist church, for his life was noted
tor its Christianity and his devotion to
its doctrines. Yesterday his com mpanions
were constrained to turn their thoughts
to the congregation on the other shore,
to which he had been called on Satur-
day evening about 6 O'Clock.
His last sickness was of short dura-
ton. the ravages of grippe proving too
much for one so enfeebled, his health
having been broken down by life of
hardships and continued cares.
Arthur Walker was born in Illinois
78 years and 2 months ago, and came to
to this coast in May, 1858. His home
for many years was on 15-Mile, and
later he came to this city to reside. His
first wife died about forty years ago, and
in 1873 he was married TO the wife who
now survives him. He had but one son, -,
James, who several years ago died from
! injuries received by being kicked by a
| horse.
For nearly fifty five years he has been
an ordained minister in the Methodist
church, being an earnest worker in the
same when his heath would permit
and a class leader up till the time of his
DEATH
The funeral took place from the NJ. E
church this afternoon, and was largely
attended by those who have always had
the greatest respect for the aged pioneer
