She Was Great-Great Granddaughter
of Mrs. Washington.

Mre Eleanor Agnes GoldsboTough. widow
of George Robins Goldsborough and daueh-

were deferred until her nephew. Mr. Charles
GoIdshorough, WHO is in the west IS heard
from but it is expected that the body VIII
leave Baltimore this afternoon for Easton,
Md for burial at Ashby Manor: in the
private lot of the family.
Mrs Goldsborough was the daughter of
I,loyd Nicholas and Eliza Law Rogers and
was the last survivor of the family which
lived at Druid Hill when the estate was
sold TO the city for park. Eliza Law. the
first wife of Nicholas Law Rogers. was the
granddaughter of Mrs. Washington. His
second wife was Hortense Hay, a grand
daughter of President Monroe and the god
child of the beautiful and gracious Hortense
de Beauharnais Queen of Holland and
mother of Napoleon III.
Mrs Goldsborough had no children. She
was the widow of Mr.. George Robins Colds
borough of Ashhy near Easton, and the
greater part of her married life-with the
exception of periods spent in travel in this
country and abroad and a winter during
which she had house in Washlngton-was
passed at Ashby, where the DISTINGUISHING
customs of typical immortal estate gave
charm and dignity 10 the life.

SCHOOL
DISTRICT
NO.8O

In the circuit court this morning,
Judge Galloway made decision in the
suit Of Omart against School District
No. so. The court ordered the writ of
review sustained, and that neither par
ty could collect costs and disburse-
ments.
This suit is the outcome Of divided
opinion of the patrons Of the district
on the question of building school
house. Omart is one Of the directors
of the school, and the writ Of review
was brought by him to set aside the
action of the board of directors in levy
ing tax to appropriate money to
build school house. The reason given
for the action asked of the court was
that when the directors ordered the
clerk to give notice Of the meeting, he
failed to file an affidavit that the no.
tees were posted, as the law requires.
The evidence showed that the notice
was given, but no affidavit was filed.
The court held that the absence of the
was fatal to the proceedings.

CLASSES
BEGAN
II TODAY
Practical Work at Willamette
University Normal School
Commenced

The second session of the William
ette University Summer Normal opened
its doors to the students last Wednes.
day, but the active class work for the
term began today. The first two days
was taken up in registering the stu
dents and in getting all the necessary
preliminary work out of the way. The
attendance is not very large, but near
ly as many students have already en-
rolled as the faculty can instruct to
good advantage. However, the author
tiles will arrange to take care of few
more students, should they apply.
Professor c. o. Boyer, the principal
of the school, in speaking of the work
this summer, said that the most encour.
aging feature connected with the school
was the advanced work the teachers
were asking to take. In great many
cases the teachers were joining classes
that were dealing in University train
ing exclusively. 1t shows the upward
trend Of public school work in the
state, and is very gratifying to the
university and normal school authori-
ties.
The full faculty is composed as fol-
lows: Principal, Professor G. O.. Boy
or; secretary, J. T. Mathews; E. T.
Marlatte and Mary E. Reynolds.
The session will close August 7th.
Willamette Summer Normal School
has many advantages that are not en-.
Dyed by any other similar institution
n the state. Some of these are the
'ollege and city libraries, the extensive
laboratory privileges, faculty that
inows the peculiar needs Of the Oregon
md Washington teachers, and the
'leasant surroundings that Salem af-
ords.

NO sNAGS IN CHANNEL.
Govcrnnsmt Boat Mathloma Does Fins
Work on Upper willamette.

David b. Ogden, assistant United
States engineer, returned Tuesday from
the upper Willamette river, where he
inspected the work being done by the
snagboat Mathloma and the govern
ment dredges. He found that the snag-
boat has done excellent work, and the
channel is better than ever. This is
proven by the fact that steamers are
still plying as far as Corvallis, whereas
at this time of the year Independence
is at the head of navigation.
"The snagboat has pulled from 175
to 200 snags from the river between
Salem and Corvallis since work was
