During the past few weeks the as

will be all the more to their credit,
especially should they again be VIC

Mrs. Mary Lawrey, well known
pioneer woman and mother OF Attor-
ney ]. H. Lawrey died suddenly at 8
O'Clock last evening at the Lawrey
home on West Webb street. Death
was brought on by trouble with
which she had been affected more or
less for a number of years, though
the immediate cause was the break
ing of blood vessel in her head. Just
before her death she was apparently
feeling we'll and had been talking
with her son. The latter, who Is the
only relative living in this portion of
the country, is heartbroken over his
loss.
The deceased Is a native Of Eng
land and was so years OF age. She
was welded in England and shortly
after her marriage the family moved
to Mexico. Her husband was engag-
ed in mining and the family lived a
portion of the time in the City of
Mexico and afterwards in the state

but two of them, a son and daughter,
died as a result of the semi-tropical
climate. ]. H. Lawrey was born in
the City of Mexico.
After leaving Mexico the family
lived for a time in California and
then moved to Oregon. After coming
here the husband, in whom the min
ing fever never abated, went to Ari-
zona, and was killed during an Apa-
che raid in 1885. the entire party of
which he was a member being wiped
out by the Indians.
For many years the deceased made
her home with her son In Pendleton
and she was we'll known and esteem
ed by all the older residents Of the
city. She was a member Of the
American Order of Protection and
was of the Catholic religious faith.
Arrangements have been made to
hold the funeral Sunday afternoon,

church at 1890. Father Neate con-

During l.. T. Cooper's recent stay
in Boston, 1t is estimated that sixty
five thousand people talked with him
and purchased his medicine. This
is an average of over two thousand a
day.
His success was so phenomenal as
to cause universal comment both by
the public and the press. There must
be a reason for this. Here is the
reason given in his own words by Mr..
Cooper when interviewed on the sub
ject. He said:
"The immense numbers Of people
who are calling on me mere In Boston
is not unusual. have had the same
experience for the past two years
wherever / have gone. The reason Is
q simple one. 1t is because my medi-
cine puts the stomach in good condi-
ton. This does not sound unusual,
but 1t is in fact the key to health. The
stomach is the very foundation OF
life. attribute 80 per cent. OF
all sickness directly to the stomach.
'Neither animals nor men can re-
main we'll with poor digestive appa-
ratus. Few can be sick with diges-
tion in perfect condition. AS a matter
of fact, most men and women today
are half-sick. 1t is because too much
food and too little exercise have grad
ually forced the stomach into half
sick condition. My medicine gets the
stomach back where 1t was, and that

theory, is Mr.. Frank D. Brown. Of 81

BUILDS HIS OWN VAULT.
Pioneer Prepares for Burial Before
Undergoing Operation for Cancer.


Undergoing Operation for Cancer.
"Uncle" Jacob Long Of Elgin,
passed through La Grande last eve
ming for Portland. where he will un-
dergo an operation for a cancer un-
der the left eye. The disease has
gained such a hold that recovery is
doubtful, especially in view of the
fact that Mr.. Lang is we'll advanced
toward the century mark. At his
next birthday he will be Sc years old
and though already at his ripe old
age, is able to stand the journey to
Portland comparatively well, says
the La Grande Observer.
Personally he has lost hope and is
firm in his conviction that he will not
recover, nor in fact, return to Union
county alive. Working on this con-
viction he has had erected in the FL
gin cemetery vault costing $1400.
Mr.. Long has been in the Grande
Ronde valley since it was habitated
practically and has seen La Grande
and Elgin grow to industrious cities
from a few scattering shacks. His
many friends hope that the operation
will prove successful and that his
conviction may be wrong.

This Play a Good One.

"Poisoned for Revenge" is the
play now being produced at the
Oregon by the Streeter-Bryan COM
pany and for It's first appearance last
night the theater was crowded as 1t
always is on Thursday and Sunday
evenings.
Many who saw the show last night
declare It is the best one the little
stock company has yet given here. 1t
is a play that was written by Mr..
Streeter himself and is well fitted to
the company which he has employed.
In their new roles Mr.. Streeter and
Miss Bryan both appear TO advan-
tage and the show is not the melo-
dramatic performance its name would
signify.
On Sunday night the bill will again
be changed and what Hate WIZ
Do" will be presented.

GRAND OPENING AT RAIDERS.
Furniture Parlors Artlstically Decor
ated-Special Music Provided
Souvenirs for Ladies.

This evening a grand Christmas
opening reception will be held at the
RAIDER furniture store and those who
wish to look at fine furniture and in
cidentally hear a good musical pro-
gram will do well to attend. The
reception will last from 1880 until 10
o'clock and will be held in the big
salesroom which comprises the entire
upper portion of the Brownfield-
Matlock building.
In preparation for the reception
the big room has been tastefully ar
ranged. The furniture is grouped so
that 1t may be easily inspected and
throughout the room evergreen and
other holiday decorations abound. A
large Christmas tree adorns the CEN
ter. while around the room there are
booths which display model dining
room, parlor and bedroom sets.
In the dining room booth coffee
and cake will be served to the guests
and in addition to this each lady who
attends will be presented with a
pretty souvenir picture by Mr.. Ra-
der.
During the early portion of the re-
ceptlon the orchestra from the Pen
dleton academy will furnish music,
after which Johnson's orchestra will
entertain the people.
In the past the opening affairs
given by Mr.. RAIDER have been very
popular and there is every evidence
that the one tonight will also be well
attended.

KIPLING AIDED LAURIER.
Authors Remarks on Asiatic Labor
Great Help to Canadian Premier.

'Iauriers Luck" is proverbial in Can
ada. 1t was never more curiously OBJ
vious than in the effects of Mr. Kipling's
recent visit to the Dominion. He came
just when the Vancouver anti-Japanese
riot was first bewildering the country
A cry imputed to British Columbia
Labor" but really rising by instgation
of the retailing interest, then seemed
about to be repeated by Labor" all
over the Dominion-'The Jap must CO.
Laurier must keep him out" This had
been cautiously echoed in British Co.
lumbia by r. i. Borden, the opposition
or so-called conservative or Tory leader
He seemed to think he perceived a
chance to bring Labor" which had pre-
viously been fairly satisfied with Laurier,
over to the opposition. The premier had,
but a few months earlier, procured the
sanction of Canada's parliament to a
treaty between the king and the mikado,
by which treaty such Canadian sanction
was necessary to endow Japs in Canada
and Canadians in Japan with mutual
civil rights. Laurier, having procured
the Canadian sanction, could not sum-
marty abrogate its operation in Canada,
even if he wished to do so. Not his,
but the kings London government,
which is party to the main treaty,
could abrogate the effects of Canada's
participation, by giving the Toxic gov
eminent six months notice. 1t is far
from certain that the London govern
ment would consent to give such notice
Immediately, at the request of Domin-
ion parliament or ministry which, by
causing such notice to be given, would
cut figure of ridiculous vacillation.
Laurier needed plenty of time to turn
round in, should he wish to do SO. As
a party leader he could not afford to Of
fend the Laborist element in general. As
a responsible, wise statesman he could
