CREASED PIGS ARE
STOLEN AFTER FOURTH

The Fourth of July committee was
looking for detective early Satur-
day morning. The creased pigs, which
were borrowed for the occasion from
Jamss b. Anderson, manager of the E.
J. Young packing plant, were stolen
from their crates on Friday evening,
after they had finished their part in
the program of the day. The catchers
of the little animals were given cash
prizes and they were to have been re-
turned to their owner on Saturday.
However, the draymen found the crate
empty Saturday morning.
Marshall Robert T. Lewis, who has
had similar experience in Kentucky his
native state and where he formerly
resided. tells of an incident when the
Negroes of his town gave fair. They
placed ham on the top of CREASED
pole but no guard was placed over the
fair grounds. The next day it was
discovered that a willy Darky had Sc
cured the ham by the aid of ladder.

Tips On
Titles
A MAN
A MAN


came rushing into our Office and
wanted an Abstract in hurry. He
seemed to think we kept them on
hand and could pass the one he
wanted right over to him. 1t was the
first time he had ever required an
Abstract. He had an opportunity to
make an investment which gave
promise of rich returns. 1t was an
unusual chance. He had no ready
money 80 had gone to his bank to get
1t by placing mortgage upon his
land. The bank, according to its Gus
tom, demanded an Abstract and re-
ferred him TO us. Now the man had
lived ON this land. He had paid good
money for it. He held a Warranty
Deed. He thought it was his. It
was, but there was "Cloud upon the
Title" which had to be cleared be-
fore he could obtain any money upon
his land. There were defects in the
instruments as recorded which could
be remedied only by decree of the
Court. This required time. Mean
while the opportunity for the promis-
ing investment had passed.
This is not fiction. 1t is not even
exceptional. 1t is the sort OF thing
that is occurring repeatedly.
You own land in Hood River
County. You intend, some day, to
have it covered by an Abstract.
Why Not Now1 There is nothing
to be gained by delay and may be
much to lose. 1t matters not what
you think about your land, your
title is only as good as the records
show. The business of the Alb
stracter is to give you the record of
your title.
Some people seem afraid to enquire
into the title to their land They
prefer to play "ostrich" and try to
think there can be nothing the trouble
with it. When the day comes, as it
surely will, that they must have an
Abstract they are disappointed that
they have to wait for the Abstracter
to do his work. But they can't blame
the abstracIer. 1t takes time to pre-
pare correct and complete Abstract.
Besides there are always other hurry
orders ahead which must be finished
before new work is begun. 1t is even
more annoying to learn that the title
you thought good is imperfect. The
trouble may be slight and OF a nature
which could be readily removed, but
still sufficient to cause an exasperat-
ing delay at a time when one wishes
to make quick sale or raise money
upon a mortgage.
Be wise enough to have your Alb
stract made NOW, while there is no
urgent need for prompt action.
Come in and talk to us about it, we
may be able to make a few sugges-
tions of benefit to you.
We have been searching Hood
River Titles since 1885, and if there
is flaw in the Title we can find it.

EMPTY TOMB AT ST. HELENA
LoncWood House, Where Napoleon
Died, Is in Ruins and French Ask
That !. Be Preserved.

Complaint is made in France that
the government of the republic is neg
lecting the house in which Napoleon
died and the tomb in which his body
was laid at st. Helena before removal
to the Church of ST. Louis at the In
valdes
In 1888 the Longwood house, in
which the emperor lived during his
exile. and the plot in the Valley of
Geraniums, where his tomb was made
were given by Queen Victoria to Ma
poleon III. for the French government
which desired to maintain them as
lasting memorials. But of late years
little has been done TO preserve either
the home or the sepulcher. The build
ing is falling into ruins, the farmers
of the neighborhood let their sheep
Craze in the valley. Visitors are few.
1t Is believed that ere long a storm
will wreck the decaying building, and
then in all probability the caretaker
Will be withdrawn and the land aban-
doned to the farmer and the herds
man.
Sentiment will mourn over such sur
render of ground to utility, but it is in
evitable. in a world where the palaces
of Alexander and Caesar have crum-
bled into nothingness, there can be no
perpetuity for the homes of Napoleon.

The bell echoed the hopes Of the peoples hearts
and it's meodious Bon Voyage" sounded over the
Delaware he sailed away.
When the planning and splitting mills were
closed and the manufacture of iron and steel prod
ucts prohibited by acts of parliament in
Pennsylvania and the kings arrow affixed
upon pine trees and the trade of the colonies in
all parts of the world restrained, the bell was
again tolled to assemble the people in the state
house yard to protest against such outrages.
Thus did the bell, long before the Revolution
become the beloved symbol of truth and freedom
reinforcing with pugnacious and violent peals the
cry of determined citizens in the largest political
meeting held up to that time in the state house
yard, that none of the ship "Polys detestable
tea" that had just been brought into the port,
should be funneled down their throas with par
lament duty mixed with it,"
When the port of Boston closed in May,
IVA and the heart of the country was growing
heavier with its afflicton. the bell once more
carefully muffled and tolled in solemn and pro-
phetic manner, both to announce the closing OF
the port and little later, to call meeting to
relieve suffering in Boston on account of the
restriction of its trade.
AS the conflict with England approached the
bell was rung more and more; its became a
matter of course and then, April %, 1915,
just after the reports to Philadelphia or the
Battle of Lexington, it rang wildly to assemble
5000 people in the state house yard and to in
spire their souls to a resolution pledging their
all to the cause of liberty.
1t rang also to assemble the Continental CON
gress to it's daily sessions, both at Carpenters 5
hall and independence hall, and. finally, its crown

Despite the fact that the Liberty Bell is one
of the most treasured of national relics, it is not
originally American product but foreign i'm
portation; and imported from England, too, where
1t was first cast according to the order given in
October 175l, by the superintendent of the state
house of the Province Of Pennsylvania Inde
pendence Hall
Thomas Lester of White Chapel London, cast
the bell and by August, 1852, it arrived in Phila
delphia and erected on trusses in the state
house yard. While being tolled and tested early
in September of the same year it was cracked by
the clapper though by unusually powerful
stroke. Concerning this accident, Isaac Morris
wrote, March 10, 1853
Though the news of our new bell cracking is
not very agreeable to U.S. we concluded to send it
back by Captain Budden, who had brought it from
London last August, but he could not take it on
board. upon which two ingenious workmen under
took to cast it here and | am just now informed
they have this day opened the mould and have
got a good bell, which, confess, pleases very
much, that should first venture upon and
ceed in the greatest bell cast for aught | know,
in English America The mould was finished in
a very mastery manner, and the letters, | am
told, are better than TOM the old one. When we
broke up the metal judges here generally
agreed 1t was too high and brittle and cast sew
eral little bells out of it TO try the sound and
strength, and fixed upon mixture of an ounce
and a half of copper to the pound Of the old bell,

Herman Pass from the Island of Malta, and
Jacob Stow a of Charles Stow, the doorkeep-
er of the assembly, were the two ingenious work
men referred to in the above letter After the
second casting of the bell it again hung and
tested in the spring of 1853. More defects were
soon found, however. The American casters,
Pass and Stow, who were not bell founders by
ade at all, had put too much copper in the metal
that its sound impaired. Disappointed
with that failure and also nettled at The gbes OF
their townsmen concerning it. they asked permis-
sion TO cast the bel. q second time. Thomas Les
ter, the original maker of it, also offered his
services, but the authorities decided to allow
Pass and Stow to proceed again, and thus the
third and present casting was made. and again
the bell raised; this time in the state house
steeple itself. That operation was completed by
the end of August of 1853, when the American
casters were paid G SO lbs. sd. for their labors,
Then began it's chimes, August 81, 1853 when
1t called the assembly together, ringing out the
old ringing in the new; sounding it's melodies for
innumerable public and private events during
more than four-score OF years.

College Commencement eXer

temporary stage, handsomely deco

comforting of the degree of doctor of

Maryland district in recognition of
his successful efforts to tighten the
burdens of the people of the land by
securing for them the parcel post The
Congressman acknowledged the com
pliment in few well selected words.
and advised the graduating class that,
while education was a most impor-
tant factor in life, the development
of character was equally as important.
Another feature was the address to
the graduates by DR.. Philander P.
ClaXton, United States commissioner
of education, who spoke upon The
Functions of the Agricultural and Me-
chanical College" He referred to the
interest displayed by the federal gov
ernment in the development of agri-
culture and mechanical arts through
lihHral appropriations and the large
amount of land given for the estab-
lishment and maintenance of agricul-
tural schools and experiment sta
tions. He traced the progress of ed
ucation along agricultural lines. "The
farmer of today" he said, "must be
an educated man. He must know the
chemistry and physics of the soil; he
must know the process to make the
soil hold its moisture and how to treat
the soil to bring the best results.
