BUYS PARTNERS INTEREST
q. N. cherrlngtOn Now Sole Owner
Of Belt 4 cherrington Drug
Store.

G. n. Cherrington purchased the
interest Of his partner, Mrs. Emma
Belt, in the Belt & Cherrington drug
store, Saturday, and will hereafter
conduct the business alone. The dis
solution Of the partnership was by
mutual consent Mrs. Belt desiring to
dispose OF all Of her property interests
in Polk county.
Mr.. Cherrington is too we'll known
in Polk county to need any particular
introduction by this paper. He came
to Dallas from Salem in 1898 and
entered the employ Of M. d. Ellis, who
was then conducting drug store in
this city. Afterwards, 10 partnership
with Charles F. Belt, he purchased
the store OF Mr.. Ellis, and together
they conducted the business until Mr..
Belts death in 1906. Mr.. Cherlington
and Mrs. Belt have been partners 10
the business since that time.
The Belt Il Cherrington drug store
is one of the finest in the Willamette
Valley and has the patronage Of a
large number Of the people OF Dallas
and Western Polk county. Mr.. Cher
rington is a skilled pharmacist and
an enterprising business man, and is
always found in the forefront OF any
movement that has for its object the
upbuilding Of Dallas. In conducting
his business, he has kept pace with
the growth and development Of the
town, and it is certain that under his
able management the business will
continue to grow and prosper.

A GASOLINH EPIC.

The shades of night were falling fast,
When from Falls City town there
passed
A man, with maiden fair TO see,
Whose only motto seemed to be
"Get Therel"
Within an auto seated square,
The shrill wind whistled through their
hair,
AS softly whispered meath his breath,
The "chuffer" smiling grim as death
"Get Therel"
The auto coughed, the wheels spun
round,
And tore along the bumpy ground;
And as they shot by "Tater Hill,"
etermin'dIy he murmured still
"Get Therer"
The somber trees against the sky
Like airy phantoms fitted by;
They flew through Bridgeport's town
and bridge;
He hollered as they topped ridge
sect Therel"
The "chuffer" urged the auto still,
Dodged rocks, and gaps, and leaped
each rill
While to the seat the maiden hung.
The throttle open wide he flung
"Get Therel"
But as they shot by farm and field,
In anguished voice the maiden
squealed:
"0h, stop it! Stop it, il you can y
But still replied this banker man
sect Therel"
BiG! Bangl The air with dust was
dark
With flying fence posts, wire and bark
Yet meath the shower Of falling stuff,
The battered auto seemed to puff
"Get Therel"
Next morn photograph displayed
Showed machine all disarrayed,
Whose battered bonnet, wheel and tire
Spoke far more plain than words of fire
SCOT There!"

In mentioning the conference of
Polk and Marion county officials held
in Salem last week to decide upon
needed repairs for the big steel bridge,
we inadvertently omitted the name OF
Commissioner William Riddell Of
Polk county. All three members Of
the county court we're present and took
part iu the meeting. II was thought
at first that new 12O-foot span would
be necessary to place the bridge In
good condition, but Judge Coad
informs us that an examination Of
the bridge disclosed the fact that the
timbers were all sound and that no
new construction work will be neces
sary. The structure will, however, be
repaired and re-painted.

Mrs. Maude Muhllg Dies in Portland
After Four Days Illness.

Mrs. Otto G. Muhlig died at the
family home in Portland, Oregon,
Sunday morning, July 21, 1907, after
an illness of only four days. The
news of her death was received in
Dallas few hours later and cast a
gloom over the city where she was
born and where she spent her early
girlhood. She left a husband, a
daughter aged 9years, and twin babies
aged A days.
Mrs. Muhlig's maiden name was
Maude Ellen Casey. She was born
June 10, 1877. She was the only
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Edward
Casey,a and a granddaughter of the late
NJ. L. Robbins, one Of the early
pioneers Of Polk county. Her mother
departed this life % years ago, and
her father followed II years later.
After the death of the parents, the
children, Maude and Ralph made
their home with their grandparents
for many years, and then went to
Portland to reside. In the month
Of March, 1901, she became the
wife Of Otto G. Muhlig, of Portland,
the wedding taking place in Oregon
City. Mr.. and Mrs. Muhlig continued
to reside in Portland, where Mr..
Muhlig was in the employ of the Port
land Street Railway Company. Here
they lived happily 10 cozy suburban
home at Montavilla, and here their
children were born-one daughter,
Lorraine Ellen, aged 81 years, and the
twin babies, Edward and Ruth. Mrs.
Muhlig united with the Christian
church when child, and remained a
faithful member until her death.
The remains were brought to Dallas
on the Sunday evening train, and
were taken to the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
w. r. Ellis, where the funeral services
we're held Monday morning at IL
o. clock. The services were conducted
by the Rev. A. G. Corbin, pastor OF the
Christian church. Burial took place
in the family cemetery on the Robbins
homestead, two miles east OF town.
Mrs. Muhlig had all the qualities OF
refined and noble womanhood, and
was greatly beloved by all who knew
her. She was the possessor OF a cheer
ful and sunny disposition, and always
had a pleasant greeting for her
friends and acquaintances. She was
kind to the sick aud distressed, and
charitable to the needy. Her death,
coming in the bloom Of her young
womanhood, when life meant so mucn
tn her and to those dependent upon
her. is deeply mourned by all. 10 the
sorrowing husband and to the little
ones bereft of a mothers love ana
tender care, the heart OF the COM
munity goes out in deepest sympathy

Capt Dupont was one of the veteran
scouts and pioneers and was Wen
known in Tucson and throughout the
entire territory. He frequently came
to Tucson.
Capt Dupont was an Arizona pio-
neer, and an old companion of the
late Al Seiber through the early days
Indian wars. Both were scouts, but
Dupont quit the service some years
before Seiber retired and became a
prospector. When Seiber quit the
service because of disabling wounds
he and Dupont became partners in
the old Del Shea mine, situated in
the Tonic country. Subsequently
Capt Dupont went to Pinal county
and located on some gold mining
claims situated on the eastern slope
of the Santa Catalina mountains,
about six miles from Oracle.
He resired there a NUMBER of
years, putting in his time and max
ing a living by crushing rich gold
quartz in a hand mortar and then
"panning out" the gold. About two
years ago he was attacked by paraly
sis and became almost helpless. Last
week he was overcome by a second
stroke which proved fatal. He was
a great reader and was well informed
on many subjects. He claimed to be
a relative of the Duponts of powder
fame. He was given a respectable
burial by his old Mammoth friends.

DOGS IN BAGDAD.

Why They Do Not Loot the Food
Bazaars of the Town.
Bagdad is alive with more or less
hungry dogs. How is it that such
packs of furies do not loot the bazaars
Of the town? The explanation is as
simple as it is interesting. The Bag
dad shop fronts are absolutely open.
The goat and mutton carcasses are
hung where every dog that runs can
reach them. But time out OF mind
the first glance of a dogs eye toward
forbidden dainties has been visited
with the swift descent on him OF a
cudgel or a Ratchet.

lodging them in the tent and doing
everything that was possible to make
them feel at home.
Surprising to relate, they obstinately
refused both food and water. The re-
mains OF venison pasty seemed at
once to attract and repel them. A pan
of water appealed to them even more
strongly. but they would not go up
