WALLA WALLA, WASH.
After being in conversation with
United States District Attorney He
Court at Portland yesterday over, the
long distance wir.js, Chief of Police
Walden announced today that a Unit
ed States marshal will arrive In Li
Grande tonlgfct or tomorrow morning
to take charee of Chris Louis, the
Greek held in the county Jail on
charge of-'white slavery and Mrs. Dill
man, the "slave" held In the city jail.
When the facts In the case were pre
sented to Mr, McCourt.be readily con
sented to the marshal's coming and
the prisoners will be taken to Pori
land at once. As the charges relate
to federal laws, the trial will "have
J to be hf Id before the United ;,States
; circuit court at Portland and" tot In
th local court. . Mrs.-Diliman .win,
of course, be held as a witness only
and not as a partner or accessory in
th? slVpfd crime.
Since the publication of the allegsd
slavery yoke applied to tia Pendleton
woman, local piople "uava complinitn.
rd .Chief of. Polk i vTu'.tUn ior
Buccess in running ;ii3 accused to
cover and it Louis is found guilty It Is
booed that his punishment will be
swift and sufficient. The spread of
wh'te slavery from the centers of pop
ulation to smaller towns has alarmed
police and public alike and that the
officers should be "lent public moral
'support In the fight against traffick
ing In women Is the opinion of every
one Interested. 4 l: 7-

BEAVER CREEK'S PROTECTION IS
HOME OF BEETLES.
Are Covered Much Larger Than Last
Tear Serious Aspect Seen.
Beetles are working destructive ha
voc with the forests on Beaver creek's
water shed, and the area swept by the
deadly beetle has ground with surpris
ing rapidity the past year, according
to Water Superintendent L. M. Hoyt
who returned Saturday evening from
Beaver Cretk wiere for more than a
week he fought the forest fire there,
prventing its reaching th. beetle
swept area of Beaver creek's water
shed. The fire is still in control and
burning Itself out, but while there Mr.
Hoyt inspected the timber protecting
Beaver creek and found that the area
smitten b ythe destructive beetle is
much greater than last year. From
a' prominence he could gain a clear
view of the entire shed and It was
genuinely surprised at the extent of
the "dead" timber, killed by the b?e
i . mnrnmmt fnrcpa are fishU
In everywhere. The big' pines are
left In a "dead" condition when the
beetle finishes its work and leaves th-i
area susceptible to fire.
Because the timber 1 thus being
Mlled off, th danger of fire In the
water shed, in that It might menace
the La Grande water supply, is be
coming more and more serious.
A small crew of men is still at the
scero of the fire.

Brook's comet, a' new and strange
celestial wanderer, discovered and
named a f sw days ago by Prof. Brooks
of Hobart college, Geneva, N. Y;, was
distinctly seen here Saturday night
through the telescope owned by Perry
Oliver and others, and purchased at
the tiniii Halley's comet was te center
of attraction. As fgj; as can be ascer
tained, this is the first time the comet
has besn seen by western people, at
loast the' .first time' seen by amateur
savants. Prof. Brooks discovered it
and in the east the comet is soon to
be visible to the nakad eyg' because
It Is coming constantly nearer to th3
earth.' iAs yst it cannot be seen by
the naked eye here, but through the
powerful tenets of the telescope the
comet is a pretty sight Either the
tall it there is one is pointing al
most directly toward earth or direct
ly away from It for the tramp is al
most round, though a little oval, and
has its nucleus to one side of the cen
ter. Perry Oliver, C. M. Humphreys
and others who saw It Saturday night,
are of the opinion that It is a tailless
comet. Eastern news dispatches do
not cover this question.
Tb9 comet must be seen early In
the evening or late at night as It is
almost directly overhead about 9 or
10 o'clock in the evening. It Is near
the constellation Cygnus. '. '
As the comet approaches earth Its
Journey will be closely watched by the
local savants. V ;c
