Death OF Mrs. HOllenbeck

Though Sunday was bright beau
tiful day, yet some homes and hearts
we're filled with much sorrow because
they we're oveshadowed by the pail of
death. This was the case out at the
/ home Of Mr.. and Mrs. II. ID. Searls
whose daughter, Mrs Carl Hollenbeck,
had passed out Of life on the afternoon
of Thursday, last week, after many
days of suffering at the hospital in
this city. They had but recently set
up their household in the home of
his brother-in-law, w. III. Griffith,
from which the wife and mother, who
was a sister of Mr.. Hollenbeck, had
been carried only a few months ago.
But what promised long and happy
life has been broken up at the very
beginning. The funeral at the Metho-
dist Episcopal church, Sunday after
noon, was attended by alarge number
of their friends, many more than could
be seated in the church. The body was
laid to rest in the Arlington Heights
Cemetery. The services were conduct
ed by the pastor Rev. p. V.D. Vedder,
who read the following obituary:
Mildred Flay SeaalI daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. f. ID. Svarls, was born
in Audubon county, Iowa, December
I, 1890, and died in this city, March
26, 1908. On December II, 1907, she
was united in marriage to Mr.. Carlos
Hollenbeck, of this county. This union
was of brief duration, for it was but
two weeks after they had set up house
keeping when Mrs. Hollenbeck was
taken i'll, of typhoid fever, from which
she never recovered. About two years
ago she was converted and united with
the Methodist Episcopal church, of
Audubon. During her illness she had
faith in her Lord that gave her COM
plete triumph even in the presence of
death. Hers was indeed childlike
faith and consequently she committed
herself so naturally to her Saviour,
as she approached the shadows. She
leaves a husband, father, mother,
three sisters and one brother in the
depth OF sorrow, but not as those who
have no hope. What to them is such
sadness, to her is heavenly joy; and
what to them is lostness, TO her is
i eternal gain She is not dead but
| liyeth to die no more.

CEMENT WALK CEMETERY
Committees Has Been Organized to Pre-.
sent Matter TO Our Citizens.

The need of good walk to the
Audubon cemeteries has been felt for
many years; and the necessity for one
is increasing every year. AT differ
ent times there has been talk of or
ganiZed and united effort to supply
the need but up to the present time
nothing more has been done and moth
ing accomplished. We are pleased to
learn that the time has arrived for
something more than talk about the
need and expression Of regret that moth
can be done. In order to start the
matter in business like way com
mittee of three was appointed by the
Masons and one of like member
from the Odd Fellows who met together
and organized what might be termed a
cemetery walk committee with j. ii.
Baker, President; and A. FL. Roberts,
Secretary and Treasurer; the other
members being j. M. McKarahan, c..
l.. Zion, d. l.. Freeman and l.. M.
johnson. The plans of the committee
are to begin one block north of the
Catholic church and make a cement
side walk four feet wide on the right
hand side of the street, north and east,
to both cemeteries The walk to the
north will be 1925 feet in length
and each walk to the east $50 feet in
length. AS starter the Masonic
lodges have appropriated $3.50 and
! the Odd Fellows $3.50 which makes one
third of the estimated cost of $1,000
In few days the committee will COM
mence systematic canvas of town
and country to raise the other $500
All our people have a general interest
! in this movement, Those who have
friends there or expect to be laid there
themselves have special interest in
providing easy access to the city OF
the dead. The location of these two
cemeteries is all that could be desired
and many people will enjoy going
there when good walk has been pro-
vided. Let everybody get ready to do
something to help in this meritorious
work, so that the money may all be
secured and the work completed ready
for use on the coming Memorial Day,
May the Both.
This article was put in type for last
weeks paper but crowded out by a
freshet of advertising. The commit
tee who have been busy at work this
week soliciting have met with cordial
reception. But it will take large
number of subscriptions to make eight
hundred dollars. The new walk will
be fine Improvement and worth all it
will cost.

been "after" Heney ever since.
During the Heney MEETINGS in Port
land recently Lord printed and caus-
ed to be circulated in Heney's au-
diences the following slanderous
dodgers:
Ask Mr.. Heney these questions at
the meeting tonight, viz:
/. Why did you try to shoot a good
citizen at Silver City Idaho, when
teaching school there?
2. why did you kill DR.. Handy
upon the streets of Phoenix. Arizona.
3. Why did you kill Mr.. Nichol-
sen at Cape York, Alaska?
Can an honest American citizen
admire person with such a bloody
record, or believe in his honesty i?
Might not you step In his pathway
and have your disemboweled body
sent back to your wife, just as the
body of oscar ]. Kendall of Port
land-Heney's body guard at San
Francisco-came back to her?
Poor Kendall knew too much.
If you citizens of Portland believe
in this sort Of a character as a NOR
