to make up man to whom honor and
high station would have come with
years, as a natural inheritance.

and son, 10 the proud father and moth
er, and to all the members OF his fami.
ly who knew and loved our departed
friend as others could not. our sin

together with the hope that the poig-
nancy Of their grief may be tempered
by the God OF comfort and mercy, who
watches over the bereayed and the
suffering and notes every human pang
with tender pity.
Resolved, That the clerk of the cir
cult court of Marion county, Oregon.
be instructed TO spread upon the rec.
ords and journal OF said court these
resolutions. and that a copy thereof be
forwarded by said clerk, under the

RECORDS OF HEROISM.
Newgpaper Accounts of Courage ous Acts Are Not Always Perfectly
 Reliable.

Dr. Weir Mitchell, writing in Gen. tury of ''Heroism in Everyday Life" y. makes a study of the subject based on newspaper clippings for which he subscribed. He thus analyses the articles received:
 ''I found that I had in ten months 1,163 records. I began to deal with these by striking out all cases where mothers ran risks to save a child. Here we have to do with instincts and extravagant motives which must always have existed. Many cases were repeated over and over, with such changes as at times were bewil" dering. The quality of some of the plainly it was. out of the question to attempt verification.
 Having thus, and perhaps even too critically, sifted my reports, feel sure that, while might have rejected many true cases, there was reasona- ble security of the reality of what re- mained. -, .
 My exclusions left me with rec- ord of TIT examples of men, women or children who took grave risks to save persons in peril. .~s
 "Of these 25S were attempts to save the drowning. .. .-...
 "One hundred and rinety-four were efforts to rescue from fire. Among these quite one-third were by single firemen acting alone; the rest were by men, women, or children, and in- volved various kinds of danger from fire, such as carrying out children or adults from houses on fire, talk ing great risks to alarm persons asleep in such places, running eleva- tors amid terrible fire risks, etc.
 "Sixty-one were acts of self-de- voted courage on the part of railway engineers, brakemen, switch-tenders, or others employed on railways. Among these were many amazing ex- amples of high conduct amid appal- ling risks with lamentable list of fatal efforts to drag from railway track persons in grave danger. I am assured on good authority that a large number of cases of heroic be- havior by railway employees are never reported, and that this list is much too small. More remarkable is the number of persons who, not being in this employ, made like efforts to save the lives of children, women, or drunken men from the swift ap- proach of trains. Forty-eight such instances were thus reported
 My miscellaneous list numbers 156. It is largely made up of efforts l to stop runaway horses, of which about one-third were by policemen It also includes curious variety of rescues. Several were from noxious gases in wells; 12 from bulls; oth. l CTS were contests from mad or fero l cious dogs; there were seven at. | tennpts to save from awful death by a .sIive electric wire." and. finally l two cases were of persons who sucked snake-bites- probably D harm l less effort, but popularly regarded 1 as endangcring the operator"

DENIED BY FLANAGAN,
Hammer Used in Breaking Record Was
 Not of Short Weight

Hammer Used in Breaking Record Was
 Not of Short Weight.
 New York, Dec 26.-Referring to the statement of James E. Sullivan of the Ameateur Athletic union that a short weight fifty-six pound hammer had been used by some athletes in breaking worlds records. John Flanagan, the champion, denied yesterday that he had used the faulty missile when he made the worlds record October 20. 1901. He said that the fifty-six pound weight which he used at that time belonged to the Greater New York Irish Athletic association, and was measured and weighed by Field Judge A. T. Hurberg of the Pastime Athletic club and Offi- cial Handicapper J. O'Brien of the day the record was made. O'Brien, accord ing to Flanagan's statement, brought the missile to Secretary Sullivan's of fee and had the measurements verified and Flanagan's throw was duly accept ed and passed upon as a record at the last annual meeting of the Amateur Athletic union officials. The Greater New York club loaned the hammer and 1t was nlisIaid. and the one found short by Sullivan is one that was made to re- place it.

 Wodtke is the idol of the Chelsea fans. The flying Dutchman never played better polo than at the present time. es-
 Dick Pierce is playing better polo than he did a year ago. He must have been on a pilgrimage to the fountain of eternal youth.-Lowell Mail.

 Muncie cranks are delighted with Long John Wiley, the man of extended arms, limbs and vocal organs. They say out there that he is possessed of a wonderful head.
 Lewis is the speediest man to the spot in this league or any other. Moreover, he is more valuable man this season because of his increased weight and his willingness to mix in the scrimmages.

Six-day bicycle riders are determined that in future they will do no more riding for purses, but will demand a percentage of the gate receipts. It is said they have organized for that pur- pose. and George Leander, winner of the last race at the Garden, is respon- sible for the statement that the day of the purse is gone by. Leander further added that a demand to this effect would have been made on the manage ment of the last race but for McFar- land and Maya, who, it is said, received recompense for insisting on a race for a purse. The sum of $750 was given to Leander as his share of the first prize. which after defrayfng ex- penses only left him the paltry sum of $500 in his pocket. He says that the gross amount taken in was $9S.000, which. minus an expense of about S36.- 900. left the promoters $62,00O. If the riders have their way next years event will not, of course, be quite so profita- hJa

During the past two months Willie Mack, the former amateur lightweight champion pugilist, has taken up Wrest- ling as an exercise. His proficiency at the game has been surprising and George Bothner. who has taught him few tricks, believes that with little more experience Mack will be able to hold his own against any 13o pounder in the country. Mack on the strength of this has already challenged any lightweight pugilist for q catch-as- catch-can contest to a finish.
