F. X. Mutthieu Cabin No. 12, Na
tive Hon of Oregon, of Iiuttoville, ha
iaaucd the program and invitation fur
tha annual celebration at Champoeg,

tion of the firm proviaional government
meeting, held at Champoeg, May 2,
)M-i:i. Thi will be the 6Kth annivers

ment erected to it memory. Joseph

Mr. Huchtel, who will preside, de
sires to form an organization to handle

burdensome on Matthieu cabin. He
will proKM at the c inclusion of the
program at the celebration that a so
ciety bo formed, with a president and
aecretary and executive committee.
An effort will be made to change the
place for holding future celebration
from Champo'-g to Wilsonville, be-
cause of the greater convenience at
the latter nlace. Mr. liuchtel has
looked up a ten-acre tract at Wilson
ville. on the river and electric car line,
which he proiioee ihould be purchased
and made a permanent state park in
memory of ti e first meeting of the
provisional governtnenat, May 2, IMS

take to form at the celebration will be
auchorized to adopt plan to finance the
movement.

ABDICATION OF SULTAN.
Epidemic of Tuberculosl Reported In
Oregon Poultry.
Portland According to report re
ceived by Dr. R. C. Yenney, secretary
of the state board of health, there
threaten to be a serious spread of tu
berculosis among poultry flock of the
state.
Dr. S. W. McClure, chief of the state
bureau of animal Industry, advise Dr.
Yenny that flock of &tf chickens
bought at Eugene and taken to Forest
rove wa found to be atllictexi witn
the disease and that 16 died at last re-
oort. He estimate that 80 per cent
of the flock waa affected. Dr. McClure
reported in addition that a large flock
of chicken, at Pendleton wa. found to
be affected with tuberculosis, but no
connection had been established be
tween the two districts affected. At
endleton it waa found that the diaeaae
had attacked turkey, in an adjoining
field and also pig. had been seized With
the disease after eating dead chickens
and turkey.
Dr. Yenney said that the fact of the
ianase being communicable to human
beings from affected fowls had not been
fully established, but the pigs taking
the disease from having eaten the
fleeted fowl, was significant.
Ready to Bora for Oil.
Astoria A scow load of machinery
a been taken to the Hess ranch on
the south shore of Youngs bay, where
Harrison, Brenner & Palmberg, of this
city, will bore for gas and oil. Boring
will be commenced as soon as the ma
chinery can be set up. The firm has
secured lease, on a large tract of land
in thia vicinity and arrangement have
been made to sink several well, at va
rious place, in case the first one doe.
not prove successful.
New Depot for Baker.
Baker City The O. R. & N. com
anv has lust purcnasea axiamonai
grounds for the erection of a depot
The consideration was $16,000. The
new depot will cost approximate'
$30,000. The present depot will be
remodeled and used for a freight depot
and warehouse. Baker is the second
ity in Oregon in volume of freight bu-
ness. The building oi tne new passen
ger depot and freight warehouses calls
for a rearrangement of sidetracks.
Elgin Loses Wool Sales.
Pendleton Elgin will have no wool
ales dates thia season, the date set for
thBt citv having been cancelled by the
executive committee of the State Wool
growers' association and the date of
Julv 6 given to Enterprise. The build
ing of the W allowa railroad, making
unnecessary the freighting of wool to

Tottering'.Throna of Turkey Seems
About to Fall.
Constantinople, April 19. The moat
serious crisis in the history of the
Turkish empire is thought to be at
hand. It is persistently rumored that
Abdul Hamid, forced by the uprising
against the tyranny of the party in
power, will abdicate the throne.
The committee of union and pro
gress, representing the party of the
Young Turks, with whom are allied
the revolting Salonica soldiers, are en
deavoring to regain the power obtained
by the revolution of last July, which
has been gradually undermined by the
cleverness of the sultan in getting rid
of or winning over by bribes the lead
ers. The Salonica soldiers are at the
gates of the city and threaten to enter.
The military in the capital is in a state
of fear and no resistance i. looked for.
To complicate the situation, an up
rising is in progress in Asia Minor in
which more than 1,000 people have
been slain, among them two mission
aries, and untold property damage has
been done.
Foreigner, and many Christian, have
taken refuge in the consulates. The
local troops and the governor are doing
their best to protect the town, but
there is great fear that it cannot hold
out much longer against the invasion
of the Moslems, who are sweeping
down in large numbers. The Ameri
can vice consul at Mersina, John JJeb
bas, has been unable to proceed to
Adana, owing to the interruption of
communication.
A British warship is proceeding to
Alegandretta, which is threatened by
the Moslems. Several American farms
in that neighborhood have been de
stroyed.
Alarm is felt at Kbarput because ol
aerious depredations by tne n.uras in
the surrounding villages, although the
town itself haa not been the scene of
any particular disorders.
The tension in Turkey over the situ
ation la very great. Tne people ol
the capital are more concerned with
the advance of the Salonika troops
than they are with the massacre, re
ported from various quarters.
MUSIC FOR THE FAIR.
Wool Sells for 14 Cents.
Pendleton A phenomenal wool sale
is reported from Arlington, Pat Farley
having sold for 14 cent. 18,000 pounds,
for which last year for a lif e amount
he was paid only 6li cents. Difference

Management Has Provided Well Along
Thi Line.
Music will be a big feature of the
Alaska-Yukon-Pacific exposition, and
during the exposition season the finest
musical organizations of the United
States will be heard. Liberati's,
Innes' and Ellery's bands will divide
the season and these will be heard
daily.
The temple of music is centrally lo
cated, and in this beautiful building.
continuous concerts will be given free
from the first day of June until the
closing day on the sixteenth of Octo
ber. A number of handsome band
stand, have been erected at various
points, and these are ao dispersed that
muBic will be heard in every part
the grounds.
Shorter concert season, have been
arranged for orchestras and band, from
foreign countries, and among these
will be heard the Philippine Constabu
lary band and the national band of
Mexico. Vocal and solo instrument
concerts will as a rule be heard in the
auditorium, and this new permanent
building represents one of the very
finest halls for such purposes that is to
be found in the United States. Of
great importance and assistance to
concerts held in the auditorium will be
the new organ which has been installed
for the exposition. This instrument
is one of the largest pipe organs yet
built, and in tone and possibilities is
not surpassed.
Interesting novelties in music win
be heard, and among these will be
noted a native Philippine band whose
instruments are entirely composed of
bamboo. The range and class of music
produced by these rudely constructed
instruments is remarkable, ana tne ex
tremely crude appearance presented is
in strong contrast to the equipment oi
other organizations.
