INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT AND PROGRESS OF OUR HOME STATE WOMAN AVIATOR FALLS. -Both WILL MAKE WHEAT RECORD. Weather Ideal for Wheat and a Bou tiful Crop Will Be Harvestsd. Wasco From Wasco to the Shanlk hills, a distance of 40 miles; from this place to the John Day, about 12 miles. and about an equal distance to the Des chutes river, wheat ia ripening very last. Sherman county intends to make record for itself in wheat production this season and while it is not likely that all previous records will be bro ken, the showing of the grain fields plessing to all concerned. Cool weather at a time when the moisture in the ground waa not too plentiful, waa the ssving grace thii season, ror several weeks weather conditiona in Sherman county have been close to the ideal, and the grain has in consequence ripened very slow ly, but surely. During the critical period when the fall wheat waa put In the "dough," hot weather would have pulled down the prospects to alarming degree. While it is very true that the spring sown wheat is not all out of danger, with present weather conditions con tinued for awhile longer, nothing ex cept a strike of harvesters could posai bly stop Sherman county from giving an unusually good account of a very good all around wheat producing sec tion. Good farming ia one of the secrets of Sherman's generally good showing, nd whenever nature helps out a little, the outcome looks like magic.

Lost Nerv and Stopped Motoi Arms and Legs Broken, Bethany Plains, Rheims, Frsnee The second distressing accident of the aviation meet here occurred when Bar oness de la Roche, driving a Voisin biplane, lost her nerve at a height of 50 meters, shut off the Hwer and fell with her machine to the ground. Her legs and arms were broken and she suffered severe contusions, but the doctors who have her case in hand hope tor her recovery. It first was thouirht she hsd sustained a fracture of the skull, but this wss not the case. At a height of 80 meters, the Bar oness de la Roche had flown once around the field. The spectators In the grand stand were applauding her vocif erously. Suddenly she appeared to be come frightened at the approac two other aeroplanes, one of which, Sommer, driven by M. Lindpalnter, paased directly over her. The baroness, in a period of con sciousness after the accident, saidj that the rush of air from the motor over head had thrown her into consterna tion, and that she had put out the igni tion and lost control. The machine fell like a meteorite to the ground. I be crowds rushed out on the field and extricated the mangled and bloodv form of the woman aviator from the tangled debris, and conveyed .her to a nearby hospital. Meanwhile. Lindpalnter had descend ed, and the crowd, believing him to be responsible for the accident, threatened to lynch him. Gendarmes, however, threw a cordon about the aviator and dispersed the ex cited spectators. An inquiry by the judges' committee showed that Lind palnter waa In no way responsible for the accident. The first accident of the meeting oc curred on the opening day, when Charlea Wachter'a Antoinette 'mono plane collapsed at a height of 500 feet, and dropped like a stone, instantly killing Wachter.

Closing of Door in China Seen Russo-Jspaness Compact. Berlin The liveliest interest is felt in official circles regsrding the Kusso- Japanese agreement, the text of which has not yet been fowaded to the Ger man government. The maintenance of the status quo, which the agreement is ostensibly intended to secure. Is con sidered most desirable The most delicate o-oint in the agree ment refers, according to the semi official Frankfurter Zeitung, to the un derstanding to act actually on the de fensive against the intervention by any third power in Manchuria, which still belongs to China. 'The agreement. therefore, cannot be directed against China. It ia pointed out that America ob tained from China concessions for the Aigun-Chinchow railroad, and the ques tion is now raised here whether the agreement is intended to oppose Amer ica s unwelcome intrusion in tne Kusso- Jspanese sphere of influence. If so, the agreement is taken to mesn the closing of the open door. THE ARCADE ST.
