Pendleton Party Sits Out the Night Near Mountain Canipflrcs. Life In the mountains during the good old summer time Is not all pleasure, according to the following from the Pendleton East Oregonlaa: There are about 100 mighty "sore" people in town today as a result of a broken passenger engine on the O. R. & N. near Durkee Monday night Beginning at La . Grande and ex tending the entire length of the O. R. ft N. system to Bingham Springs sta tion, there were waiting Pendlnton lans at' every station last night and the train on which they rode to Pen dleton this morning did not arrive un til t o'clock. "And thereby hangs a tale." - . ' ' . Early In the evening No, S was re ported on time, but at 8:30 the pas senger engine broke down near Dur kee and a slower freight engine was taken to bring the train Into La Grande. At that time the train was marked up an hour late. , . Then began the cheerful work of keeping warm at the Pendleton camps at Meacham and Bingham Springs. It was a cold night on the mountains and wood was scarce and It was diffi cult to keep the bonfires replenished while waiting for the train.) But the weary watchers, grown angry long ago, still piled on the wood and still lis tened for tho whistle of the tialn. But still ths freight engine lsgged with the heavy train and It was 1J:S0 when the first bunch of Pendleton people found seats and closed their eyes for a brief snooze leaving La Grande. . . It was about I: SO when the last weary Pendletonlan on he mountain division of the O. R. ft N. climbed Into the coach, madder, colder and perhaps wiser than ever before this season.
