QUET THE winners

ing Club Links-Players
are Paired.

The official golfing season at the
Outing Club for 1916, will be wound
up this week with dinner
match, for which sides, headed by
R. w. Pote and r. S. Phillips, have
been chosen, the losing side in the
contest to pay for the banquet,
which will be served to the partici-
pating players at the Club house,
Thursday, Oct. 18th, at $50 p. m.
The players have been matched
according to their handicaps and
will therefore compete on even
terms, and the rivalry will be keen.
The pairings are as follows:
Pote versus Phillips.
Wilson verses Bair.
j. M. Richardson verses Hughes.
Currie versus Crosley.
Jones versus Mason.
Miller versus Metcalf.
Boeye versus Henderson.
Pyle versus G.. M. Teed.
Prince versus e. E. Richardson.
O'Connor versus Lehnhard.
Younkee versus Dysart.
Drake versus Parkhurst.
Banks versus Garth.
Clifton versus Sterling.
G. w. Teed versus Pearce.
Jenkinson versus Bermann.
King versus Brown.
Match play rules will govern the
contest, and 1S holes will constitute
a match. The points will be-
1 point for winning the first nine
holes.
1 point for. winning the second
nine holes.
l point for winning the match.
/ point in case of default by op-
ponent.
The individual matches may be
played any time before Thursday
night, and all cards must be deposit
ed in the regular tournament box
before p. m. on the night of the
banquet.
The box will be opened, the points
counted and the losing side announc-
ed during the progress of the ban
quet, SO that all may really enjoy
the eats, secure for the time at
least, in the thought that the other
fellow has to pay for the feed.
In case the contest results in
tie, the side of the losing captain
pays, and in such consequence,
said captain will probably leave
town the following day-until after
it has blown over.
All players are urged to take
early advantage of the prevailing
fine weather and complete their
matches as soon as possible.

At that time Mr.. Nelson received
few more votes than ! did, al
though I carried ten voting precincts
out of twenty-one precincts in the
county over all the candidates. At
that time Mr.. Nelson told me and a
great many others that he would
not be a candidate at the end Of
four years and l said l would be a
candidate at the end of his two
terms. Some time before the June,
1916, primary. Deputy Sheriff Carl
came to me and said that he was a
candidate and also that Mr.. Nelson
was coming out for the third term.
I decided that Mr.. Carl was more
entitled to the Office than was Mr..
Nelson for a third term. I therefore
concluded to stay out of the primary,
not split the vote, and give Mr.. Carl
a chance.
I hope this will make 1t plain to
all why I solicit your votes now.

OBITUARY

The people of the klamath Indian
Reservation have met loss in the
death OF Daisy. the aged and feeble
wife of the old chief, La Luke.
Grandma, as she was lovingly
called by employees and Indians, was
a Modoc. and for years has lived
with her invalid daughter, Mollie, on
her allotment near the Williamson
River bridge. Their home, which has
recently been torn down. was the
first cottage built ON the reserva-
ton.
On October 81, Grandma caught q
severe cold and took to her bed.

angle came at midnight on Saturday.
November 80. and delivered her from
the bondage of the flesh and set her
spirit free.
She had long been faithful and
honored member Of the Indian M. =.
church, and the ringing of the church
bell was to her glad summons to
which she cheerfully responded. and
though she understood English Inn
lecfectly, she sat with quiet rever-
ence during all services.
All through her illness her suffer-
ing was enough to tender the hardest
heart and moisten the driest eye, but
through 1t all she showed the gentle
disposition and christian submission
which filled her life and made her
lovable to its end and her memory
cherished. At the close Of her last
earthly dinner she smiled, and said:
II welcome you for eat and drink"
During her illness loving hearts and
gentle hands ministered unto her
earthly needs with an untiring devo-
tion.
Her niece. Julia Paraso. leaving her
home to the care Of others. remained
by her bedside day and night for three
weeks. being daily assisted by Miss
Rice, our field matron, or another
employe, as well as the Indian peo-
pie.
Her remains were laid to rest with
her husband and children in the Will
son cemetery on the afternoon Of
Monday, December I, 1915, Rev.
Morris, her pastor, officiating.
The fioral.offerings provided by the
Indian women and others were very
nice and helped to dispel the gloom
as We gave to the little mound the
last loving glance.
Her funeral was provided for BY
William Crawford, her nephew and
heir. BY A FRIEND.
