year for Methodism alone, being en-
gagged at this work every Sunday.

crowded to it's utmost capacity. The
service was opened by the singing Of
the hymn, Prayer and Praise" A.
Ter the invocation the male Quartet

an able and eloquent effort and was
one of the finest sermons that has ever
been delivered from a pulpit in the
city of Walla Walla.
Mr.. Joseph Powell, who had charge
OF the entire service, next spoke at
length an the great work that had
been accomplished by the members of
the church, and predicted great re-
suits from the effort that he was GER

Il am looking for a new location
and would like to get in to or close
by a city of 1000 to 5000 population
where general farming and fruit is

is not too expensive and where there
is a Catholic church and school, but
first of all l want a country where it
is warmer than here, where there is
little or no snow in winters, where
is dry and healthful, where winds don't
blow so blamed hard and much as theX
do here, where there are no dust
storms or sand storms, where light
ming does not keep one in constant
fear and man would have an oppor-
tunity to die a natural death if he be-
haved himself and live reasonably
comfortable during his stay on this
earth. where there is a chance to earn
bread and butter by hustling at any
old thing. l do not expect to find all
my wants but am going to try the
place that I think is nearest. What
has your place to offer?
Il would like to know the annual
and damp days you usually have per
year. l am writing this letter to about
a half dozen places but no other town
in your vicinity. l am going to make
a change if l can See any place to bet

wanting a place of prosperity as this
country is all right in that respect but

ground every hundred yards. The bear
apparently wanted to make Shouts
acquaintance and was persistent. He
could so some too. and Smout had all
he could do to keep just ahead of

up the chase and Smout reached his
destination safely enough. but minus

sistent effort of a number of the most
intimate friends of the late Father
Wilbur, who have felt for years that
some fitting and permanent memorial
should be erected to perpetLate the
memory of the man who had done SO
much in early days to advance civil
lization and the Christian reI'slon IN
the states of Oregon and Washing
ton. For a number of years the plan
of erecting a church has been under
consideration, but it was not until
September, 1903. that a definite move
in that direction was made. At that
time the Wilbur Memorial Methodist
Episcopal church was organized and
shortly afterward Rev. Robert j..
Reid was assigned to the charge by
the conference. The reverend gen.
tleman at once took hold Of the propo-
sition and by persistent and very ard
uous labor, ably assisted by the men,
bers Of his congregation, carried into
execution the plans that had for years
been in course of consuma ton. When
Mr.. Reid took charge of the church
organization the membership was very
small but he was not the least bit
discouraged and he at once began an
earnest and energetic campaign for the
upbuilding of the organization, and
today it has a membership of over
100

HORSE DISEASE GROWS SERIOUS
Twenty Animals In One Barn Are At

TACOMA, April 1S.-A horse disease
bearing some resemblance to the TEX
as Itch has made its appearance in
this vicinity, and has become so seri-
Gus that the county commissioners
nave taken the matter up and will take
some measures to prevent its spread.
Veterinary surgeons report that horses
having it lose all their hair. and fl
nally become covered with sores and
scabs. which are caused by the. con-
slant biting and rubbing to allay the
irritation. The disease is contagious
and when one horse on a farm gets it
all the other horses are speedily in
fected.
In one barn here twenty horses have
had the itch, two Of the cases being
very severe. The disease is said to
have been brought from eastern Wash

Black River conference of New Iorl
in 1S41. he was transferred by II
bishop having control Of the foreig
missions to what was then known q
oregon Indian Mission, and reache
Oregon in company of DR.. William
Roberts, who was appointed to sue
coed Rev. George Gary as superin
tendent of the Mission. With thu
retirement of Gary the Indian Mission
ceased to exist When under the SUI
perintendency of DR.. Roberts the
Oregon and California mission was
organized. Wilbur's name appears as
secretary and he was appointed to
Oregon City, and Portland.
With his accustomed energy Mr.
Wilbur pushed his work forward. He
procured of the proprietotors Of the
townste three blocks of land most
eligibly located as donation. On
was erected and the other two were
reserved for future endowment Of the
school. Portland was yet hamlet
in the forest but it's people had large
dreams which were not all dreams
for the future. The blocks secured
were in the midst of great fir trees far
away from the few business houses
that stood on the river banks and it
required a vast amount of hard work
to clear away the timber and prepare
the site for occupancy, but such diff
culties were nothing to such stalwart
pioneers as Wilbur and those associa-
ted with him. At the same time this
was being done a church was being
built by the same indomitable man.
He was architect, carpenter, axman,
OK driver, painter. blacksmith and
pastor He begged money enough and
material from door to door. When
all other resources were exhausted
he called on the missionary board in
New York and that body advanced
him $4,000 with which to complete the
academy to be repaid in some better
day hereafter. Finally the academy
and church were both completed and
church and educational work were
put on a solid foundation in Port
land
After filling various appointments
in the church as educator, pastor and
presiding elder, about 1858 he was
appointed by the United States gov
eminent agent of Fort Simcoe Indian
reservation in which relationship he
remained twenty-five years as a gov
eminent officer and missionary of the
Methodist Episcopal church, where,
by his wise administration and str. ct
integrity, he raised the savage tribes
under his supervision to partial
state of Christian civilization. After
resigning the agency he came to live
in Walla Walla where, in company
with his devoted wife he devoted his
entire time to mission work, preach
ing. pastoral visiting, church building.
etc. until at the age of II he ceased
to work and live leaving all his earth
ly possessions oto benevolent purposes,
