lively by the discussions over the
proposed matter, that of gaining an
appropriation for the planting of
trees and garden beds along the Pa
cifie highway. After dinner they ad-
journed to the hotel parlors.
After they had convened with Mrs.
Schieffelin acting as president and
Mrs. Crawford as secretary, Mr..
Smith of Smith, Emery & Co. spoke
TO the assembly on their proposed
work, and suggested that they ask
the county court for at least $40 900.
He gave many names of trees which
ne said would be good. His opinion
was that many different kinds OF
trees should be planted, and at turns
IN the road there should be clumps
of trees under which autoists and
travellers could stop and enjoy picnic
dinners. He suggested taht certain
men residing by the highway have
charge OF certain portions of this
parkway. which they would be paid
To keep up in proper shape.
All the ladies offered suggestions
and voiced their opinions, one OF
which was that there should be big
arch on the California-Or line
over the highway, and about this
place there should be a small parked
spot, with places for campers to have
every convenience.

Check Flasher Busy.

Within the past two weeks a local
bank has had presented to it for pay
ment a number of bogus checks.
They purport to be pay checks of a
construction company which purports
also to have funds in a local bank.
No such construction company exists.
Some fakir is merely issuing that
sort of checks to himself or his pals
under different names and then max
ing purchases and getting them
cashed. A bunch of the checks as
yet unused were fouLd east of town
recently by rancher who turned
them over to the bank. They are
very neatly printed and have the ap-
pearance of being genuine.

The afternoon class of Mrs

The afternoon class of Mrs.
Hardy's private school will be dis
continued during the winter months.
This class consists of children under
six years of age. There is a good
enrolment and parents are express
ing themselves as highly pleased
with the work being done. The chill
dren take as much interest in their
house school," as they call it, as
Mrs. Hardy does in them, which is no
small amount. Mrs. Hardy is an
earnest, conscientious worker, we'll
prepared to conduct such a school.
Ashland is fortunate in having a
place where the child is taught to
use both mind and fingers before
entering the public school. This
class will reopen about the first of
March, depending upon the weather.
In the morning the children over five
years of age are also doing good
work and will continue during the
time public school is in session. The
enrolment is growing. the children
are happy. and parents are delighted
with results. Thanks are due Mrs.
Charles Strother of Wenatchee,
Wash. who in her lecture on the
Montessori method last summer at
the Chautauqua instilled in the
hearts of the mothers of Ashland a
desire for such school, and to the
management of the private school
for the efficient work being done.

DEATH OF JNo. 3. MIKE.
Once Vigorous Business Man Had
Been sunfferer for Years.

Mr. John b. Mike, one OF the well
known citizens OF Bryan, died at his
home In this city last Saturday. July
18th, at 1880 p. m, brief mention OF
which was published In these columns
at the time. Mr.. Mike. had been In
very feeble health for the past four
years, suffering from paralysis, and
the greater part OF the time was
complete invalid. Through the long
months and years he bore his suffer
ings with that patience and fortitude
becoming a brave man and never
murmured nor complained at the dis
pensations Of Providence. His long
suffering, however, was not without
It's recompense. Never did man re-
ceive more gentle care, more tender
ministering than he received from
those he loved and those who loved
him. His every wish was attended.
and through the long days and nights
the tender healing hands OF his faith
full wife were there to soothe and com
fort him. and when the hour came for
earth's everlasting farewell to be said,
his head was pillowed upon her loving
bosom. Such love and such devotion
made light the dark hour. and robbed
death OF the bitterness OF its sting.
Mr.. Mike was 81 years, 5 months
and ~ days Of age, the eldest son OF
Mr.. and Mrs. d. Mike, ST., his father
having died several years ago. He
was born In Webb City, Ark. but came
to Bryan with his parents when a
child. and this city had been his home
continuously since For many years
he was engaged IN the mercantile bust
ness and was recognized as one Of the
city's leading business men. After re-
firing from business he was manager
OF the old theatre. known as the Grand
Opera House, and looked after his
property and other business interests.
