c. w. Smith returned home from
the east Tuesday evening after an alb
sence of a number of weeks. Mr.

rosy or finances SO easy in the far

Mrs. Nj. Horrigan, so we'll known
as one of the oldest residents west
of Oroville, has been very low with
pneumonia during the past week. AT
one time she was not expected to sur
vive, but at last accounts she was
slowly improving with every hope of
final recovery.

est residents of the valley, is confined
TO her bed with complication of all
ments. A short time ago she fell and
injured wrist, which added to her
Affections. AS she is upward of So

T. Warren and Miss Clara d. RatledgA

Mrs. w. &. Payne. A merry little party
was there to rejoice with the happy
couple. After Rev. Morton had pro-
lounced them man and wife. all re-
pared to the dining room where Mrs
Payne, the sister of the bride, served
sumptious supper to the wedding
party. Their many friends wish them
every happiness.
The pancake supper given by the
ladies of the Episcopal Guild, in the
dining room of the Hotel Spokane,
Tuesday evening, was a marked sue
cess not only in amount of receipts,
but from the eXcellency and quality
of the provender. The ladies served
pancakes, sausage and coffee, and the
diner could order again and again if
his appetite called for repeats, and
that was an innovation on the usual
public feeds where little is expected
to go long way.
Henry Brown returned home Tues
day from Belleview, Idaho, where he
had taken the remains of his father
for burial. He states that his father
insisted upon an operation while in
the hospital at Walla Walla for blad-
der trouble in the hopes that it would
relieve him of the terrible pain he
was suffering. He did not rally from
the shock. Arrangements had been
made to hold the funeral at Walla
Walla, but a sister at Belleview in
sisted that the remains should be
buried with those of relatives in the
at that place.
