summoned. He was terribly injured,
but retained his faculties for about 80
minutes after the accident. He then

and died at A O'Clock Wednesday

and came to Oregon in an enIly day.

traceable to, but re the direct result of indi.

swells the stomach, putting it up against the
heart. This interferes' with the action Of
the heart, and in the course of time that
delicate but vital organ becomes diseased.

Senior Insignares in answer expressed
his deep sorrow at finding that
the hopes of reconciliation We're

the actions of the people of the 18TH

declared that all the people of Colom-
