At Pine Grove Cemetery yesterday
afternoon Lone Pine Camp of this city,
Woodmen of the World, unveiled the
mouument erected by the order over
the last resting pl:ce of their deceased
neighbor, Jesse W. Lufkin, and: the
exercises attending the same proved to
be in keeping with the beautiful ritual
work of the order.
The members of the local .camp of
Woodmen were assist-d by the Women
of Woudcraft, the ladies’ branch of the
order, and by a delegation of Woodmen
from Mistletoe Camp of Grass Valley,
and after a short preliuiuary meeting
ut-their hall, marehed tothe cemetery
in a body, accompanied by the widow
of the deceased neighbor and her intimate friends iu a carriage, .and surrounded the the tomb of the deceused
oeighbor, where the following program
was carried vut with much impressiveress:

Quartet, “Nearer My God to Thee.”
Remarks, F. L. Arbogast.
OCiosing ceremonies by officers of
Lone Pine Camp.
The monument is a very neat and:
imposing shaft of grani‘e and is prettily inscribed with the emblems of
Woodcraft aud a motto of the order.
The Woodmen of the World believe in
vonori: g and perpetuating the memory of their deceased neighbors and a
monument is thus provided for every
member of the order by the Head Camp,
when the hand of Death :alls upon a
meuber. The remarks delivered by
Mr.Arbogast were a beautiful tribute to
the memory of the late Jesse W. Lufkin and we publish it io full:
“Among the peaceful sleepers in this
quiet city of the dead lies at rest a
Woodman of the World, the first of
Lone Pine Camp to cross to the Great
Beyond, and though his voice is no
longer beard in'the councils of the
order, his memory is not permitted to
perish from among his brethren, and
over the grave of Jesse W. Lufkin) «
grani‘e shaft has been erected by the
munificence of the fraternity,telling the
world that a faithful Woodman sleeps
beneath. The monument was erected
in accordance with specifications ot
the Head Camp of the Order, and contains a suitable inscripticn, together.

“Oar departed neighbor, Jesse W.
Lufkio, was athative of Tilinois, having
seen the light of day first on the 2st
day. of September, 1864.
“He came from the East in 1889 and
made this the State of his adoption,
and dearly loved the great Commonwealth of California.
“He was married in Jane, 1896, to
Maria Wilcox, who with three little
children survive him.
“Re met his death accidentally, as we
all know, while in the employ of the
Nevada Ocunty Electric Power OCompany, and tne whole community telt
the loss of a noble citizen,
“Jesse W. Lufkin was.a man among
men in the fullest extent of the ex
pression. Ouae of sterling qualities
and worth, kind and gentle in disposition, quiet and reserved in manner,
courteous to his fellow men, and earn.
vet and conscientious in his work. He
won thead.niration of all with whom
he came in contact. As a citizen he
was frank and straightforward, ever
ready to perform those duties incumbent upon all good men.
“As @ neighbor of Woodcraft he was
gentle, thoughtful and charitable, zeul.
ous, ardent and earnest in his work in
the order, }
“He served as an officer of the Camp
in almost all capacities, being a Past
Consul Commander st the time of his
death. By his Straightforward conduct, his willingness to bear the burdens necessarily devolving upon him
asa Woodman, he won the love and.
admiration of hig neighbors, who deep.
ly deplore his early demise. As a husband and father he was ever thinking
of the comforts of his family, aud jealous of the time he had to spend away
from them. His ambition was to have
a home he could gall his Own, and to
tbis end he bent his energies; but he
has been called tu the eternal home
beyond, where he awaits our coming,
aud where we all hope to spend a blissful eternity,
“Woodcraft, dear friends, is a young
instiution, but by referring to its record you will flad that it bas the most
marvelous growth of any kindred organization. Its objects are to ennoble
its members, to minister to the afflisted, to relieve distress, to seek employment for those without it, to cast a
sheltering arm about the defenseless
living; to give an honorable burial to
our sacred dead, to place a permanent
token of our esteem upon his grave, to
SO impress the grand doctrine of
brotherhood of man Upon our member.
ship so as to make it an important factor in-our daily lives, to encourage
broad, charitable views;'to make us
more intelligent Citizens, true friends,
gentler sons, more thoughtfal brothers,
more considerate husbands and more
reasonable fathers.
“Our ceremonies this day, though
simple, are intended to remind us ot
the fact that we too are mortal, and
we know not how soon we may be
called to our home beyond, and all
that is mortal-of us iaid quietly in this
silent city of the dead, where we trust
our surviving neighbors will, with
bowed heads and solemn hearts dedicate toour memory some Simple tribute.
“May these ceremonies be to us a
lesson ever to be remembered, and may
each of us 80 live,
spect that the memory of Jesse W,
Lufkin deserves, and may this simple
shaft, bere over his silent tomb ever
proclaim to the world here li
man, the noblest work of God.” vee

A “Bogus” Agent.
The Transorier is reliably informed
that a bogus agent is making his
rounds in this vicinity and is trying to
swindle people with the “deposit”
scheme. He claims to represent several business firms at Sacramento, two
of them being Weinstock & Lubin and
Jobno F, Stoli & Co. The agent solicits
orders for all kinds ef goods, but asks
a deposit with every order. If refused
he becomes insulting and leaves in ap
upgry mood. He is clean-shaven, with
durk hair, and reddish complexion of
face. Heis.about 25 years of age and
dresses very neat. People should be
on their guard and give him a cold
reception.
