EIGHT PAGES DAILY EAST OREGONIAN, PENDLETON, OREGON, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 23, 1910 PAGE THRKB HEVS OF THE DAY FROM HERMISTON AT THE MOVING PICTURE SHOWS MY TRIP ACROSS THE MS WRITTEN BY MILS. FANNIE CAMPBELL AFTER SEVENTY YEARS OF AGE. After traveling through western Iowa and crossing the Missouri river at' Nebraska City, wo made a stop of two weeks visiting my mother and father and In May started across the plains for Oregon. We met no serious obstacles to hin der us until we came to Fort Tarrmie when one diirk night the man we had hired to drive one of the provision wngons became so frightened by the way the Indians were doing, that he di-clded to go back home to his wife and stole the best mare he drove and took a large pistol and overcoat and Iff t us without help except our chil dren, who were all small. My hus band went In search of him In the morning, but he did not go far until he was taken 111 and came back to where I had driven on a few miles and camped with all our stock. He got along all right. His name was Miller. He got lome In Iowa and told the most dreatlful tale how all of us were killed by Indians, that he was the only one that escaped alive and our old neighbors believed him until thsy had a letter from me after a year or mora and there wa rejolc- nig wii. u iar, i.cnru wo ; alive My husband thought If he oould do so mean an act and as he hud. n'thjrip. we Jus( let Mm go un punished. We came to Denver and sold two teams as we thought we could not trust a stranger again W buuKht a span of Spanish ponies and 1 drove them through to Oregon. My husband drove the large wagon and Joe Campbell, now living near Welser, Idaho, drove the stock. We got along nicely. Sometimes we traveled with company, for awhile with an escort of soldiers and surveying party that ( surveyea me union racmc, mo iuoi , railroad on this coast, but most of the time we traveled alone. My hus band thought we were safer when alone as we did not attract the at tention of the Indians so much then, ana ne orien took nis Bu" "u ro : and stayed with his horses all night, If he had to take them very far for , feed. No new or stirring things hap- pened to us and when we reached I Fort Brldger we took Subletfs cut off and came through Bear river I mountains, and oh how steep. Some- I times we had to tie ropes to our ; wheels to drop down from some large , rocks. Thnt was a lonesome route and very few would come that way j although it was a shorter one. i We came to a beautiful place call- ed Camas Prairie Just before we , reached Boise City, Idaho. Here we j camped for two weeks and oh, such j fat mutton to use. There were large i bands of sheep In this fertile valley I and we enjoyed It Immensely after j having used salt bacon so long. We j really had fresh meat most of the , way, sometimes killing an antelope or a rabbit. We had a big gun we J called Old Wallet, which we had brought from our old home In Iowa, and often when at noon we stopped I to let our teams rest, we would gath- j er greens and have a fine dinner. Oreens grew along the old Immigrant j trail We had our sheet-Iron stove ! and could set It up In a Jiffy. An Incident happened which I must yet put down. When we got to Green River, we thought -we could ford It enslly. so my husband drove his large team and benvy wagon In and wpnt across all right. The children went nhend with him. leaving me alone. I did lid not stop to think but drove my,", .uiu, r.iys ,onle, in the deep water and soon ST'?1 0T ' ' . ..

It were told by an emigrant going east j from the Willamette valley that we would find the best country we had ever seen when we came to the Uma tilla river (I Just wrote It down) and you may be sure we found It true. All day we spoke of the tall rich grass which we thought fine. That night we camped at the old Bradburn home on the Umatilla river. The Wilkes brothers and Mr. Tupper came by and talked to us and said we had better look around and stop here. We were tired of traveling as we had been on the road for six months. My husband went up the river next day and bought a claim of Robert Mat teron with a small log house and an acre of ploughed land. In a few days we moved our wagons and stock to our new hvme, known ever since as the Campbell ranch at Horseshoe curve on the O. R. & N. Not a wo man or a school within six miles. My oldest boy, who was long afterwards Vllloil hv the Indians, rode this dis tance to school. It was not long, however, until we had a log house built near our home so all could go. And would you believe It, 'our houses were covered with split wood with dirt over It and It really made a good cover which scarcely ever leak- ed and was so cool ln summer and warm in winter, a relative or mine once wrote me In the seventies that she heard we lived In such houses as I have mentioned but I was ashamed to tell her when I wrote back for we had left a large farm and house where she had been to visit us from her home In Athens, Ohio. So you can see from this some of the hard- There la Only One "Bromo Quinine" That la Laxative Bromo Quinine njkCB THC WORLD OVER TO OURC A OOLD IM JVC BAY. Always remember the foil name.

There is an Incident 1 want to jot down, rather funny. Soon after we came to our new home, my husband culled to us to come out on the' back porch and "see what he would take out of old Nell's collar and he drew out about 1000 dollars In greenbacks. We were all very much surprised of course, for this collar had hung on the wagon tongue with the other harness all the way from Denver and no one else of the family knew where It had been kept until then but we were very unfortunate, receiving only fifty cents on the dollar Just then, but green backs were their par value soon af ter. We kept old Nell fur years af terwards and Ernest, my oldest boy, took her to the mountains with the Helth Brothers, and she was either stolen by the Indians or tried to come home and got tangled up and died. We all were bo sorry to lose her. We set out a large orchard In the spring of 1865, having cleared the land after we came. The fruit trees were shipped up the Columbia river rrom Portland to Umatilla Landing, w. .f .iftn . . days everything was a good price that we raised- At one time about the middle of January 1 sold eges for II. in A dozen. Eight years after we came to Happy Canyon, as It was called In early days. My husband died with that dreadful disease, con sumption. We came out here for his health, so much warmer here than In Iowa, he seemed to get better for awhile but It did not last long and he died the 16th of January, 1873 and flve yearg latel my oIdpgt boy Ernest, was killed by Indian rene gades from the tribes of Bannocks and Sioux and a few of our tribe, the Umatillas. He was In the mountains near Camas Prairie to look for his I LMuiiir, in, wnum we inougni was killed at that time, but on the 4th of July. wlll carae nome t0 me at Pendleton and his brother Ernest was kme(j with Jonn Crlsp a frleri(J of ourg wno wa8 nerijng gneep ,n tna mountains. The boys did not think tnere were any indans ln the moun. tains. Thev were both mounted on good horses, but the savages were hid behind some huge rocks and fired on them. They both fell not three feet apart. Robert Thompson and Wlll Campbell made up a party to go and search for their bodies and they made quite an etxensive search but failed to find them and as the Indians were there In large numbers they decided to come home to get more help and guns The next time they went back they found their bodies, which had laid there Just a month, We did fiot get all of their bodies but did the best We could and brought their bodies home to bury them ln the old Pendleton cemetery and a few years later moved them to Olney cemetery and since that time I have burled six grown children nenr him. My husband, father and moth- J er, also are sleeping near them where I expect soon to Join them in a hap pier and fairer clime.

TO SHOOT AT THE BRAINS. Want to Learn Effect of Ballots Flrod at Head. Berlin. The Treves criminal court, which is trying a peculiar murder case, has asked the Royal Institute of Judical Medicine ln Berlin to experi ment on corpses with the object of In vestigating the effects of bullet wounds on the brain. This gruesome request can only be carried out with the permission of the police on un claimed corpses In the morgue, such as are sometimes given to hospitals. Only such corpses as are already mu tilated beyond recognition are allow ed to be used. However, the minis ters of the Interior and Justice will probably give their consent In the case.

A very pretty wedding occurred to day on Butter creek, the contracting parties being Miss Florence Shaw and Roy Attebury. Both are well and fa vorably known in this vicinity, where their people have resided for a num ber of years. Besides the Attebury and Shaw families the only ones pres ent were Mr. an Mrs. E. H.

The last affair proved such a success that several hundred are sure to attend the Joint affiar. j SPOnTOGRflPllg I Manager Spell of the Pendleton All Stars Is rending the heavens with his cry for a full-back for the team that wlll attempt to dismantle the high school machine tomorrow afternoon. "Give me a full back," he prays to the god of the gridiron, "with a head like the steel nose of a 16-lnch pro jectile, with the speed of a comet at Its perihelion and the endurance of Battling Nelson in his palmiest days and it wlll be a day of true Thanks giving for pie. With such a man my scoring machine will be perfected ami the game will have no terrors for me or my men." With Du.l'py Clark, former captain or Oregon, and Carl Wolff, former captain of O. A. C, playing the half back positions on the same team, the lomb may now safely lie down with the lion. "No ball player goes through a Reason without being convinced that the official scorer robbed him of at least 20 hit;' comments Joe Jackson, president of the Baseball Writers' as sociation of America. "The appoint ment of traveling scorers won't help. The player will not agree with the scorer at all times." "An umpire doesn't object to a kick if the player kicks with decency," said Umpire Silk O'Lnughiin. "There i bound to be a difference of opinion and the player who is interested in his work is likely to come back If he thinks you handed him something that was not right. Of course, when they commence to berate you, out they go." There are five college twirlers on the reserve list of the Cleveland team for next season. They are Fred Bland ing, Michigan; Willie Mitchell, Mis sissippi; Oeorge Knler. Ohio; Fleet Mnyberry, North Carolina, and De Mott, Lafayette.

He struck out 264 men ln the Pacific Coast league last sea son ln 362 2-3 innings. This Is an av. erage of nine men. during each reg ular game. MINISTER LOST TROUSERS. Colony of Ants OuuhoI Tragwly In Train for Englishman. London. A good story about an English cabinet minister is going the rounds. It must be stated that the name fitted to the story as It is told in different quarters. The hero of the story had been stay ing In the country, and on the morn ing of his departure he arrived at the railway station a quarter of an hour before the train was due out. The sun shone brightly, and the min ister attracted by the warmth, walk ed to the end of the platform and took a seat on the grasses of the embank ment. Here he remained until the arrival of his train. When he was comfortably seated in his reserved first class compartment he discovered to his horror, that he was swarming with ants from a nest on which he had been all unconsciously sitting. Taking off his coat he shook it out of the window, only to find that bis lower garments were nlso alive with nnts. He wns by himself, with no risk of anyone Intruding, so he took off his trousors and shook them also out of the window. At this moment nn ex press rushed by, the trousers were caught, and before be knew what hnd happened they were torn from his grasp, London was only an hour Journey distant, and he was trouser less. The train stopped at a station, with the blinds of the compartment closely pulled. The minister put his hond out of the window nnd signaled the ptatlon master, to whom he appealed for a pair of trousers. There was no garment of the kind at hand, but the station master telegraphed to the London terminus, whero a porter when the train arrived, presented the blushing minister with a pair of stout corduroys, and In these garments he made his way home. There Is now plenty of clean mud in Oregon. The Orphean. 1. The Banker's Daughter. Bio graph, 1000 feet long. A good drama telling how a defenseless girl's nerve saved the day. 2.
