DEATH OF EPHRIAM KILPATRICK.
A Pioneer of the West Who Served WitlLincoln in the Black Hawk War.
Ephiiam Kilpatrick, father of Mrs.H. W. Templiu, of East Sound, diedthere at his daughter's home Saturday,June 2, at the advanced age of 92 years,4 months and 4 days, having been eon-lined to his bed but one day. Thefuneral took place at East Sound, Mon-day, and the interment at Bay Viewcemetery, Whatcom, Tuesday.
Mr. Kilpatrick was in many respectsa remarkable man. It is given to hutfew men or women to be a witness of somany great events; of so many wou-derful achievements in invention,science and art; ofsuch remarkable in-dustrial development and educationaland social progress, and at the sametime to be a participant, in a measure,In so many of the events which havemade the nineteenth century the mostremarkable in all history. And he wasin full possession of his faculties to theday of his death.
He was born in South Carolina Jan-ary 28, 1808, more than seven years be-fore the overthrow of Napoleon at thebattle of Waterloo and nearly a score ofyears before Queen Victoria becamesovereigh of England. He went withhis parents to Kentucky when "thedark and bloody ground" was still awilderness, and with them settled inSouthern Illinois in 1819, passing theyears of his youth and early manhoodamong the sturdy pioneers of that richsection of the then far West. There hetaught school and studied law, andthere he served in the same regimentwith Abraham Lincoln in the BlackHawk war. Atout 1838 he moved toMt. Pleasant, lowa, and engaged inthe practice of law. He was clerk ofthe district court for a number of yearsand judge of the court forone or 'moreterms. During the civil war he ac-cepted an appointment in the govern-ment service at Washington and wasprivate secretary to Senator Harlan,afterwards one of the judges of theUnited States supreiue court, when thesenator was secretary of the interiorunder President Lincoln, whose eldestson, Robert T. Lincoln, married MaryHarlau, the judge's eldest daughter.After Jud^c Harlau's retirement fron>the cabinet Judge Kilpatrick re-turned to his old place in the interiordepartment. He served for many years:>s chief clerk of the United States laudoffice and was for more than thirtyyears in the government service. Accompanied by his wife, whose maidenname was Sarah Davis and who was awoman of many talents and accomp-lishments, he came to this .state in 1893Mrs. Kilpatrick died in Fairhavenabout five years ago. Four childrensurvive them—Mrs. George Byrket,whose husband is a clergvmuu in Iowa;Mrs. J. T. Woods of Mt. I'leasuut, lowa,mother of Charles Woods, of EastSound, now in Alaska; Mrs. H. W.Teniplin, of East Sound, and Mrs.Win. K. DinwMdto, wife of^Lieut. Di:i-widdie, of the United States army, in-structor in military tactics at one ofthestate schools of lowa at Cedar Falls.

•\u25a0 *•
By the looks of the serpentine trackwhich we saw between West Soundand Orcaa Mr. Reddig must have abicycle.
Mr. George Meyer, of Orcas, was inWhateom on business last week. Hedisposed of some of his Whateom cityproperty.
Ithas been decided to hold the westend Fourth of July celebration at WestSound this year. Either Orcas or DeerHarbor were entitled to it, but as thebad weather last year made the celebration at West Sound altuost a failure,and as there is a balance of some dol-lars due on our hall which would bea good thing for all concerned ifit .verepaid, it was decided to try it here again.And we are confident that Orcas andDeer Harbor willdo all in their powerto make the-day a rousing success.
Decoration Day at West Sound passedoffvery pleasantly, quite a large num-ber bt'ing present, including :en oldveterans. The program was fine, con-sisting ofsinging, recitations, and shortaddresses by Messrs. Ben Harrison, O.T. Loos, Adkins and others. Thechurch was beautifully decorated withflowers and bunting. A picture of thegrand old hero, General Grant, washung over the entrance door so thateveryone passed under it. There werequite a number present from Daer Har-bor and Orcas. When leaving the har-bor the steamer Thompson gave afriendly salute, which we all appreci-ated.
We stated last week that the prunecrop on Orcas would be light thi9 sea-son, but since that writing we havevisited a great many orchards and findthat the trees are well loaded—in factmore than they should have; but. ofcourse the Italian variety will sheduiore or le«. The only trouble will be
the evaporating capacity. The UreasIsland b ruit Farm Company is enlarg-ing its large evaporator, Mr. Haiu-bly has put in another apartment inhis evaporator, and Mr. Norstrotn iagoing to build a drayer; but "with thisincreased capacity it looks as thoughsome or the fruit willgo to waste. Theapple orchards are in fair condition anda Kood crop is expected. Taking every-thing into consideration, our frultmenfeel pretty well over the outlook.
Pale Face.
When School Is Over.
When school is over, and careless and gay,We've finished the work ofthe year;
When the book and pencil are hidden awayTill the autumn shall come, I fear;
What wonderful plans we all of us make,How much we are going to do,
And what good resolves we have formed tobreak
Ere the first long month is through.
When school is over it somehow seemsThat the days go flittingpast;
Just long enough for our golden dreamsThat follow each other so fast.
And the work's undone that we meant to do,And we've broken every rule,
When we find at last that the summer'sthrough,
And the bells are ringing for school.
SALMON PRICES UP.
Cold Storage Men Ilare Bulled theMarket.
Cold storage men have forced up theprice of salmon until quotations have
reached a point that Is almost beyondthe reach ofcanners. The figures nowasked for salmon are beyond the bestmarket quotations for several yearspast. Sockeyes are bringing 25 and 26cents on the Sound. A year ago theprice was less than 20 cents in June.Columbia river salmon are bringing 7cents a pound, opened at G cents, andgradually forced up until they reachedtheir present point. The trapuien havenot begun extensive operations as yet.The season will not have fully openeduntil June 20.
Making the Bordeaux Mixture.
Farmers who spray will find that theycannot get along without the Bordeauxmixture. Potato growers use it for theblight. Blight ofany kind on the fruittrees is, more or loss, helped by its use.
It will keep grapes from rotting and pre-
vent apple scab. The addition of24 ouncesParis green to 30 gallons of the mixture isa v»»ry useful combination, and does notlessen the fungicide qualities of the Bor-deaux. Itis just the thing for potatoessuffering from blight and the potato bug.Anyone inexperienced who attempts tomake Bordeaux from the formulas .is
usually given, will meet with some in-convenience, to say the least. The writerfirst made it with the assistance of anagent ofthe Department of Agriculture,and will give the practical details:
Put 30 gallons ofwater in a barrel andmark whore it conies. Take out waterand put in (50 pounds of good lime. Slakeby adding water freoly, but do not drawthe lime. Stir thoroughly. After lime isslaked add water to bring up to 30-gallonmark. This lime solution can be usedthroughout the .season as wanted. As forthe copper sulphate solution, put 6 g.tl-lons of water in a wooden or earthen ves-sel and mark. Remove soino of the wa-ter, and in ihe balance hang (i pounds ofcopper sulphate (i»!uo vitriol) in a cheese-cloth bag. In a few hours it will dissolve,an 1 then add water ifnecessary to bringit up to the (>-gallon mark. To this solu-tion add Ijgallons of the lime solution,straining through »a gunny sack. Thenadd £24 gallons of water, making 30 gal-lons in all. This is Bordeaux No. 1. ForNo. 2, ami .V>! gallons oi' water.
No. 1 is generally used, although somediseases are. MMtraltad by No. 2. Te«twith Conn cyanilo ofpotassium. It therem a rcdilish reaction add a 'ittlo more oftho limo solution. It indicates the pres-muco of acid not neutralised by limo, andmay cause damage to foliage.—G*. Davis,in Farm Journal.
A I.KTTU: FROM OLO.V
Dear Eihtoh:—l think you do ourplace an injustice in your comment inlast week's MMofThk Ni.ankek in re-gard to tin* facilities for the entertainmentof the public at olgsi. While we do notclaim tlio proportions of a full-fledgedwatering place, Mr. lleenau has a verycomfortable pltM for the entertainmentof the public and has had for the pant sixmonths.
Mr. John Gray and other old settlershere tell me that no bass were ever phiccdin either of the lakes hero since they havebeen residents of this vicinity. I knowthat some six years ago a shipment ofsmall trout was made, destined for Olga,but were allowed to perish on the wharvesat Seattle.
Most ofmy neighbors, from their con-versation, would lead a person to believethat they found their live stock morevaluable after the advent of tho assessorliiau l»efore.
Mr. John W. (Jray has been ratherfeeble for a month past, owing to an at-tack of la grippe.
A. Ohlert's new schooner, "Nellie," hasbeen measured and is now in commis-sion. She is a very nice, trim-built boat.

One of Oar Old Pioneers.
A KetWiikan, Alaska, special corre-spondent ofthe Seattle Times, under dateofMay 27, says: "Mr. J. W. Young ofthe popular house of J. W. Young & Son,
ofNew Town, Ketcbikan, is one of ourold and resDected pioneers, having re-sided in Southeastern Alaska sixteenyears. He moved from Kansas to FortWrangel, Alaska, in 18S4, to take chargeof the Presbyterian mission farm at themouth of the Stickeen river. After theburning ofthe mission in 1887 he carriedthe monthly mails between Wrangel andWales island, a distance of 200 miles,sometimes by sail, somotimes by steamlaunch, and often by canoe. In 188U hestarted a trading post at Howkan, amongthe Hidah Indians, which he operatedsuccessfully for several years. In 1895,the government having built a school atSax man. Alaska, their agent, Mr. Shel-don Jackson, requested Mr. Young totake charge ofthe school and try to gatherinto it the Cape Fox Indians. This was amost difficult task. Mr. Win. Duncan,who founded the villnge of Metlakahtla,assured Mr. Young that the ('ape Fox In-dians would never forsake their old vil-lage to move into a wilderness forty milesaway. Under influences exerted by Mr.Young in less than two years not an In-dian remained in the old village; all hadmoved to Sax man. Having a store atSaxman his growing business interestscompelled him to resign. His wife, how-ever, carries on the Saxman school suc-cessfully. Mr. Young started the NewTown store last fall, which is doing agood business, and is very popularamong the old residents, who are alwaysready to encourage and reward pluck andenergy. Mr. J. W. Young is a son of thelate Loyal Young, D. D., of Butler, Pa.,known to Presbyterians everywhere anuuthor and preacher.
The above willbe of interest to manyof onr readers, as Mr. Young was for atime a resident ofour county, residing atWest Sound. He has many warm friendshere who will be pleased to learn of hissucvess.
