SHOP IDLE
The O, R. & N. machine shops
were closed today and will remain In
active until tomorrow morning. The
forces lit the other various depart
ments were diminished more or less,
and as a result there Is but little ac
tivity In the yards today. Thirty-six
men totals the yard, round house and
car repair crows for the day. 'v
These one-day layoffs have been
numerous the past winter. The causo,
as -stated before. Is that the "engine
miles" exceeds the local shop cx
pensesand the last of the month, In
such Instances, meuns a layoff for
somebody.
The past month has been an ex
tremely busy one In the round house,
the shops and the car repair depart
ments. The shops have done some
heavy repair work and the car repair
gang has converted 12 Snake River
ballast cars Into .flat cars for use by.
the Huron work train. This Is partly
responsible for the additional expense
and for the layoff today.V" , .
(API. PAUL
GOES EASI
Captain A. M. Paul, superintendent
of the Aurella mine, left this morning
for Salt Lake, Chicago and New
York. The captain goes well armed
with samples of the "rock" and assay
sra' statements and an honest convic
tion that eastern Oregon- offers ns
good opportunities for mining Invest
ment as any portion of the United
States. In the past the captain has
been able to Interest capital, and In
each Instance 1 his . properties . have
doveloped Into dividend payers, and
he sees no good reason why the Aure
lla should be n exception. He ex
pects to be absent about six weeks.
WITH ' LA GRANDE FANt
The system of placing o'nthe bulle
tin board of the scores o.f the Pacific
league Is meeting with general favor
lh this city. Fans who follow the out
come of each game, but heretofore
have been forced to wait many hours
before securing It, and those who hat"
not paid especial attention ' to thi
games, have all become more Inter
ested watchers of The Observer scon
boards. The scores reach here abou
6 o'clock, each evening, and fan
have already cultivated the habit c
pnsslng the.ie two score boards In th!
city, at the Ferguson book store an.
at the Crowe . Jolly barber shop
The service Hs very successful, an
demonstiates the means to which Th
Observer goes to reach the require
ends.

EventM Yet In Which I .a Grande Is
Strong RrlKlit lroHts for Ia
Grande Tomorrow.
Walla Walla, April 30. (Special.)
La Grande is making a remarkably
strong showing in the preliminaries
of the track meet which opened here
today before a crowd of upectatora
numbering 2800. Island Pity Is like
wise placing a large number of men In
the finals. At 3:30 this afternoon all
preliminaries In the 50 and 100 and
tho 220 and 880, had been run off nnrt
La Grande gives promise of landlnir
still more men In the finals later In
the day.
Williamson Is showing strong. He
won first place In the third heat nf
the 100 yards with a time otl :10 4-5.
Walters Inland ("ity, took second In
the same distance In the fifth heat
with his event, going In 10:3-!.
Peare won his heat In the half-mile
with the good time of 2:17 4-5. Ir
win of Island City was In the same
heat and pulled a second place. Wol
ters captured the third heat of the
220-yard event with 23 3-5. William
son also will enter the 220 tomorrow,
because he took a second In that event
today, the race going to the winner In
the same time that Walters-won In.
La Grande rooters are wild. Their
team's time has compared extremely
favorable thus far with winners In
other heats of similar events.
Ladil Canyon, April 28. (Special.)
Dr. Phy and a few of his guesta
from Hot Lake were riding through .
Ladd canyon today In an auto. Th
tiW witnessed the ball game betwen
La Grande White school und Ladd
Canyon Sunday afternoon.
Mrs. Oscar Crossen, who has been
ill for some time, seems to be grow
ing worse again since' she came home
from the hospital in La Grande.
Mr. and Mrs. T. F. Sherwood and
daughter, Miss Jennie, visited at the
Fred Braden home Sunday.
Dick Peebler Is baling hay this week
for T. F. Sherwood and Frank Cous
sell Is doing some work along
same line for Alex Larm.
Sam Braden went over near Union
the first of the week to bale hay. ' :
Mrs. W. Jotyison, a resident near
Ladd Canyon, is on the sick list.
The La Grande White school base
ball team came out to play tHe Ladd
Canyon boys Sunday afternoon.. At
the end of the ninth Inning the score
was 7 to B In La Grande's favor. The
Ladd Canyon boys could not be ex
pected to win as only three of them
were In practice by playing at schoollp
while the remolnlng five scarcely had
any practice at all. Had a few more
of our boys been In practice they
would have shown the La Grander a ' ;
hard old game.
More Pavement for Pendleton.
In addition to the paving of West
Court street, there is now a probabll
Ity that 10 or It blocks IB other por-
lions or the city will also be paved. '
Bver since the first paving wax doL1
here those owning property in u.
first two blocks ol East Alta have de-j
sired pavement and It Is said the dis
trict on that street may be extended
the entire length of the street, extend
ing from Main to the Intersection of
East Court. i
Many property owners on Lewis
street are also anxious for a bltullthlc
street with parking on either aide
Shortly after the first paving was done
there was a strong sentiment for the
Improvement among LeWi8 lreet
