There must a reason. A trial order will explain the mystery. . A. B. C. Laundry PHONE MAIN 7 0t t4Kjtiii4J.J: GETS Mf DAI Fred Young has released al claims to the bronze medal for third in the' pole vault at the trl-state meet in Walla Walla, to his fellow vaulter, Jay Millering. These two men tied for third place and were to settle the permanent ownership of the medal when they returned to La Grande. Mr. Young reasoned out a brotherly act, he already won a third place med al in a prior meet, and this being Mr. Millering frst Walla Walla decoration, he relinquished possession cheerfully. lOWAlLOWA UB2E3 o.

St W. 125th ST, NEW YORK. waiiowa towns and newspapers have been trying to "run down" the report that a new passenger train service is to be installed on the Jo- soph branch in the near future. May 21 is the date set by them on which ilia pioposed service Is to become ef fective. The trains, If they are put on, will be outright passenger service, and will thus make two trains each way daily, on passenger and one freight train. This condition of traffic Is bound to ensue, but just when, it is hard to forecast. Ixxal trainmen know nothing of the rumor except that it has been discussed at various times It is known that O. R. & N. offi cials considered the feasibility of putting on motor car trains Instead of steam trains. Which it will be is not known either, publicly. Institute Program Soon. Within a shorr time the program for the W. C. T. U. Institute at the Central Church of Christ, May 20-21 will be announced in full. Mrs. E. E. Shepard of Salt Lake will be the lead ing light at that convention. Merchants!
