ELIZA RHODES BEAmAN.

Eliza Rhodes was born in the State oi
| Indiana, January 7, 1888. When about
s years of age she was taken to Iowa by
| her parents, where she grew to woman
hood and was united in marriage with
Justus Beaman. To them were born
five children, two sons and three daugh-
ters. The eldest, a daughter, died in
girlhood. MI and Mrs. Beaman came
to Oregon in 1864 and settled IN Marion
county near Slverton where they Tesid-
ed for twenty wears. In 1884 they came
to Morrow county, settling IN Black
Horse canyon, about six miles north of
Heppner. 1t was here that Mr.. Beaman
passed away, after a lingering illness Of
several yea son November 8, 1895
Two years later, in 1897, Mrs, Beaman
disposed of her farm and with her son
Elmer E. took up her abode in Heppner
where she has since resided.
In her early life she became Christian
and from that d ~ forward never faltered
in her faith, and by life of trust and
service was prepared for the change
that came to her on the morning of June
8, when she as quietly fell asleep upon
the everlasting arms, as does a tired
babe upon its mothers bosom.
In accordance with her last request,
a brief funeral service was held in the
home, conducted by Rev. ]. " Crawford
after which her body was laid to rest
beside that of her husband. in the GENE.
terry at Lexington. The large turnout at
the funeral attested the high esteem in
which she was held by her friends and
neignbors. A goodlv delegation from
the Odd Fellows Lodge, acting as an
escort, accompanied the remains to
heir last resting place.

Timber of Great Value.

That the timber OF Morrow, Umatilla
and Grant counties is OF great CONNER
cial value is declared by Nj. G. Grjswold
in an interview in the Oregonian of the
4th inst. Mr.. Griswold has but recent
ly closed up deals for large portion of
our timber lands. and it is his belief
that the Oregon yellow pine. or Western
pine, surpasses any OF the finest grades
of Michigan pine. Discovering the fine
belts of pine in Grant county and the
southern parts of Umatilla and Morrow
counties three years ago, Mr.. Griswold
and his associates began buying up the
timber in that district, and their hold
ings have been added to from time to
time, so that they aggregate more acre-
age than is held by any group of men in
Oregon, with the exception of the Wey-
erhauser syndicate. The Griswod hold
ings amount to 45 900 acres, carrying
saw timber to over 100000, 900 feet
This timber is all several miles remote
from transportation.
Mr.. Griswod intimates that when his
company is ready to manufacture this
timber into lumber, they will build
their own railroad to connect with the
Columbia river, but they will be in no
hurry.
ri do not care to divulge what our
plans are in regard to the timber opera
tions." said Mr.. Griswold. Before we
began to buy up these holdings, we
looked over the West pretty thoroughly
and nowhere did we find such fine
grained timber as in Grant. Umatilla
and Morrow counties. This timber con-
tains but little pitch and is therefore,
light but strong"
