After battling against fate for nine
years, Sheriff Harry Hemphill died
suddenly Christmas evening about
11:30. Starting from the Jail residence,
to conduct his daughter-in-la Mrs.
Bing Hemphill to her residence, on
West Fifth street, he felt quite well
and did not complain until he reached
her home when he complained of a
smothering sensation and started for
the gate to return to the Jail. Just as
he reached the sidewalk he fell upon
his face in an unconscious condition
Neighbors being summoned he was
taken into his sons home and expired
within ten minutes Harry Hemphill
came to Emporium eighteen years ago
and although laboring under great dis
advantages he soon gained foot hold
and enjoyed the confidence and respect
of our people to such a degree that he
was elected repeatedly to the offices of
constable and assessor. His faithful
and panctual services made him more
friends and when he aspired to the of
flee of Sheriff, in 1902 he was elected
by large majority. AS Sheriff he
left record equal to that of any per.
son ever elected to that important of
flee and only lacked one week, when
stricken down, of serving the full three
year term. Harry Hemphill came
from Clearfield county, Pa, and was a
member ofa loyal Republican family.
He was Sd years of age last July. The
writer knew bim possibly more init
mately than any other person in Cam.
eron county and his loyal support in
many contests will long be remember
ed.
Deceased leaves four sons, and four
brothers and one sister to mourn his
death. His sons are Ralph, Bing,
Orvis and Kerr, all of whom feel their
loss very keenly--his wife having died
a little over year ago.
Funeral services were conducted al
the residence of his son Bing Hemphill
last Thursday morning, Rev. Robt
McCaslin and Rev. o. s. Metzler con
Quoting the services, the county off
cials attending in body and serving
| as casket bearers. The remains were
taken to Clearfield for interment.
Several beautiful floral offerings from
the family and county officials and
friends were shipped to Clearfield.

'What Happened to Jones.

Manager Butler is indeed fortunate
in having secured that merrieSt offarce
comedies, ''What Happened to Jones"
headed by the eminent comedian,
Richard Milton, and a celebrated cast
for his theatre next Wednesday even
ing, Dec. 10.
This play has been presented and
seen by more people than any other
production in the past twenty years
and is destined to remain at the head
of the procession for at least as many
years more. 1t is aptly called "the
masterpiece of farce comedy" there
isn't moment when the audience is
not fairly bubbling over with merri-
ment, laugh follows laugh, complca-
tion follows complication in rapid sue
cession.
The story of the play tells of Mr.
Ebenezer Gondly, professor of
anatomy who is persuaded to attend a
prize fight by his prospective son.in-
law in order to develop his knowledge
of the ''actual working of the human
system !"
The place is raided and the old
gentleman in his escape from the
police, slides down a fire escape, tears
his clothes, and blackens his eyes. At
the hight is gay young sporty drum
mer of hymn books and as a side line
carries samples of playing cards. To
use his own words, "If the town is
dead, hymn books; if it's alive, play
ing cards. catch them coming and
going.'
Mr.. Richard Milton who appears in
the title role has played the part over
five hundred times and is identified in
it in every city of prominence through
out the United States and Canada.
He is to appear in it for only a short
time this season as he goes to London
to create the leading role in a new
farce. Besides Mr. Milton will be seer
such well known artists as Edward
Fawcett, Dewitt G. Mott, Harry Dorm
ton, w. J. Kane, Juliette Atkinson,
Marie Rawson, Emma Gallagher,
Bartha Livingston, Edith NJ. Cooke
and Eva Marley.
1t would be indeed difficult to muster
together an aggregation equal to this
one, in which each and every member
is suited to his or her part perfectly.

TELEPHONE COMPANY
MeetinG at Provolt Next Saturday
to Hear Reports Of Committees
and to Organize

Editor Courier-I noticed q slight
mistake of either the writer or the
typesetter in your recent issue regard
ing the price on telephone wire. The
article in your paper stated that the
telephone wire and insulators would
cost something like $50 mile, which
I wish to correct. It will cost some
thing like about % . mile for
both wire and insulators This would
be the No. IA B. B. eaivenized wire
which is used for most all telephone
lines by other companies.
A meeting 10 called for Saturday.
March 10 at 2 80 p. IN. sharp, at Pro-
volt. Of all who are interested in the
proposed telephone company to be pres
ent and hear the reports Of the COM
mittee as to their progress along the
W ork of getting members for the pro.
posed Applegate Valley Telephone
Company and of the committee ON se-
curing data as to cost Of installing the
system and of the methods of organi-
zation and the regulations Of co-opera-
tive telephone companies.
Every man and woman in Applegate
Valley is invited to be present and
help to get the work started. Every
person should be interested in this
matter, as this is step in advance
ment and will increase the price of
real estate more than any one thing
we can do at present. Charles Mes
erve, of the Courier, will he present
with us at this meeting to help us out
in the organization of the company.
And there will be rules and bylaws
that are adopted by other farmers tel
ephone companies so that we can ell
understand this part of the business
The more that will take part in the
construction of this telephone line
the less it will cost each one and it
will be very profitable to the stock
men and business men of our valley
as we'll as the farmers. So let all
come out and put a shoulder TO the
wheel and help the good cause along.
