equal to his desire assist his fellows is certainly
that of the wreck of the Weeott The steamer was
bound from San Francisco to Eureka, and had
arrived off that port at four-thirty o'clock the
afternoon of December I, 1900 with seven passen-
gers and OF seventeen men, When she
reached the bar at the entrance of Humboldt Bay,
tremendous swept over her from astern. The
huge comber smashed in the after end of the house,
filled the cabin, made kindng wood of two life
boats, carried away the port main rigging, flooded
the engine ROOM and put out the fires. Steam from
broken pipes drove the engineer deck and the
engines were left working ahead at full speed.
Broached broadside to, with her head to the
northward, the Weeott carried by the current
the end of the south etty where she first struck,
then eased, and began to pound in little and
yet nearer. The rushed over her, and to make
matters worse, darkness descending.
To Captain Burtis, chatting at his helpessness and
Knocked by the sight of land an easy stones throw

Take line? What do you mean?" asked the
Captain
Rener looked out at the wall of foam capped
blackness. Il think | could swim it, Sir, he said
simply.
You are crazy!" commented the skipper, and
turned on his heel
Rener bit his lip, but answered not word.

up as the boom reached the end of its swing lee

A FARMERS View of Advertising.

A well known farmer of South
Lancaster made the following state
ments the other day to a Herald
reporter concerning his views on
newspaper advertising:
I've been soaked a good manv
times since / started in business for
myself and note that it has always
been in the article that wasn't adj
vertised, l started into the getting
soaked business by buying a light
ing rod per foot and settling for it
perIinch.
That soaking was followed up by
the purchase of a patent gate that
wasn't advertised 1t was sold to
me on such close margin, the agent
said, that the firm couldn't afford
to advertise it. !.
I've bought everything from a
hedge fence to encyclopedias that
wasn't advertised, and if there is a
piece of unadvertised furniture that
is any account I've not fallen over
it. I have gotten so that when an
agent calls ON me with something !
don't understand l ask him where 1t
is advertised. If he can't show me
anything but pocket full of hand
bills call the dogs.
don't believe that an advertise
ment will make a good thing out of
bad one, and arr ALFRED certain
that it is not gong to spoil sure
thing. IF a fellow cart notify me
in advance through some paper that
he has winner he can't do business
with me-"

was entertained for him from the
beginning and tho not in his own
home he was given all the loving
care that kind and tender hearts
could give. Mr.. ard Mrs. Keehn
attended him faithfully and loving
ly to the last.
Mr.. O'Hara was born in O'Aara
settlement, near Reno, Ill. His
mother was left widow before his
birth. He attained his education in
Perryvllle, Mo, and in the college
of St. Genieve, Ill. After complet-
ing his education he purchased a
farm near Red Bud, ILL.,, where he
resided with his mother until her
death. After her death he visited
his brother John in POtosi where he
became acquainted with Prudence
Taylor and they we're married in
1856. He then purchased a farm
on BOice Creek where he lived until
1870, when his wife died leaving
him with four small children, one
haYing preceded its mother into
eternity.
In 1872 he was married to Mary
Eliza Bell in st. Louis. He returned
to farming on Boice Creek and he
lived there until 1888, when he pur~
chased home in Potosi where he
resided until the death of his second
wife on August 10, 1903. After
that he made his home with his
son, Henry, of Mt Ida spending
one winter with his daughter, Mary,
in Hoboken, n. Y. He made fre-
quent visits with Potosi and Boice
Creek friends and it was while MAX
ing one Of these visits that he took
sick and died. Altho not with his
own people greater sympathy and
kindness could not have been given
to another parent than that which
was bestowed by Mr.. and Mrs.
Keehn.
Five children were born to MIR.
OHara, two dying in infancy, and
John at the age of II.
The funeral services were held in
St. Thomas Catholic church We'd

Obituary-0'Hara.

After an illness of but few days
beginning with la grippe, death
claimed an old and highly respected
citizen of Potosi in the person of
Thomas Henry O'Hara, who passed
away April %, 1907 at the home of
Mr.. and Mrs Joseph Keehn, who
reside abe six miles east of Potosi.
He had not been in good health for
some time but so sudden an end
was not expected. He was visiting
with his old friends of earlier days
when he was taken sick. No hope
