Says Clirlxt Was Not a Jew.
Berlin, Aug. 11. Paul Haupt, head
of the oriental department of the In
ternational congress, today created a
sensation by declaring that Christ was
not a Jew but an Aryan. Scores of
theologtsts took Issue with him, and
a lively discussion followed.
- Ililrlilng Posts Scarce.
Though the street superintendent
has recently put up many new hitch
ing posts, there was a shortage today.
Washington avenue was a solid string
of. farmers vehicles for a distance of
three blocks. On Jefferson avenue
Jt4444--v-t-t-t' H44H-MIH t 4M$tMti-14-t .J-- t-t every available post was taken.
Barnum & Bailey's circus is here
and with It are hundreds of people
from valley point and the city Is a
live mass of humanity today.
In four sections the circus arrived
from Baker City during the early
hours of the morning, but though It
was barely daylight -when the animal
train arrived, there was a great Crowd
ot cnuureu i tlia ...I'.-i J'ir?"
welcome It to the city.
Circus day is Invariably a signal for
big business among the merchants and
today's affair proved no exception. '
Parudo Disappointing.
. The parade, for a circus so really
great as the Barnum ft Bailey shows,
was not up to expectations. The floats
were very firetty and the bands In a
class by itself over the usual run of
circus musical organizations. But the
grade of horseflesh exhibited en the
streets was a disappointment.
The Circus Different.
Though the parade was not trp to
the expectations held out for It, the
afternoon performance was one long
to be remembered. - Thousands saw
the many thrilling acta.
The evening performance promises
to be well attended. The afternoon
crowds, of course, ars always the larg
est, but so many of the city are plan
ning on taking advantage of the eve
ning performance that the show tent
will undoubtedly be tne mecca of
thousands tonight again.
Crowds Seldom Larger.
A solid mass of men, women and
children marked the line of parade.
For Mocks the sidewalks were lined
with, anxlou spectators, many of whom
had held a particular suitable point of
vantage for an hour before the 86-
horse float which followed the heralds
hove Into sight.
To Walla Wafla Next.
After Its two performances here
this afternoon and tonight, the big
circus leaves for Walla Walla. The
O. R. N. has made ample prepara
tions for handling the four large sec
tions promptly and as soon as the
last show Is over, the transportation of
the gigantic circus will commence
Pendleton will only see the circus as
It passes over the O. R. & N.
Contrary to custom the downtown
streets were void of the concession
business. As a result the Idle croud
hovored around the city of tents on
the hill.
