70 ACRES OF WHEAT BURNS.
Laigest Umatilla Grain Fire for Sev
eral Seasons Near Adams.
: Pendleton, July 30. The largest
grain fire in Umatilla -county for sev
eral seasons occurred yesterday after
noon about two miles west of Adams
A high wind was blowing when fire
sprung up in the I A. Christophe
field on what is known s the old Pat
Ryan place. It was in wheat that is
threshing from 40 to 45 bushels of
wheat per acre and it burned ovei
about 40 acres before it ran off this
place and into the J. J, Roustone field
lying immediately east of it, where
about 30 acres were burned, making ?
total loss of 70 acres, or about-3000
bushels of wheat, or about $2250.
. Mr. Christopher says that he has no
idea what started the fire.' It may
have been a spark f v the engine
though the fire was a considerable
distance from where the engine was
working, or it might have been caused
by matches being dropped or by i
cigarette that some one had surrep
tiously been, smoking. It just seemed
to spring up into a vigorous flame at
once and spread with great rapidity.
An alarm was given for miles
uryunu ana iarmers irom ail over me
country rushed to the help of the
fire fighters in gangs, and by havine
plenty of water and several hundred
sacks, which were dipped in the wa-;
ter and used to beat the flames, it wast
whipped out, though it looked for a
time as if from 600 to 700 acres of I
grain would be destroyed.
Mr .Christopher estimates his lossj
at somewhat in the neighborhood of I
$1200, about two-thirds of which is!
covered by" insurance, being written,
in the Queen Insurance company
through the local agents, Bentley &l
Leff ingwell of this city As C D
Gabrielsonj the adjuster for this com
pany, is in the city at thia time, the
loss will probably be aci,-sted this
afternoon, . -- - "
Haines Murder Story Fake.
Baker, July 30. Stories of a shoot
ing and attempted murder at Radium
springs night befpre last, which were-.
circulated here yesterday, when aim
mered down to the facts seem to have
resulted from the domestic troubles of
a man and wife living there.
It seems as near as can be learned
that for some cause or other shots
were fir$d late in the evening, but
the developments seem to indicate that
they were fired from a window for
the purpose of frightening some of
the people involjBd in the affair, rath
er than to kill or injure. On complaint
of the. husband the woman in the case
was arrested by Sheriff Rand and is
now being held.
The outcome of the affair seems
somewhat uncertain , owing to the
vague nature of the charges prefer
red and the more or less mystery
surrounding the whole proceedings.
Surprising Cure of Stomach Trouble.
When you have, trouble with your
stomach or chronic constipation, don't
imagine that your ease is beyond help
just because your doctor fails to give
you relief. Mrs. G. Stengele, Plain
field, N. J., writes: "For over a month
past I have been troubled with my
stomach. Everything I ate upset it
terribly. One of Chamberlain's ad
vertising booklets came to me. After
reading a few of the letters from
people who had been cured by Cham
berlain's Tablets, I decided to try j
them. I have taken nearly three
fourths of a package of them and can
now eat almost everything that I
want." For; sale by ail dealers.

Washington Ready for Suffragette"
Washington, July 30. Plans were
completed today by suffrage leaders
and city of trials for what is expected
to be the greatest suffrage demonstra
tion ever seen in the capital city. The
chief event will be the parade and
pageant in which wives of senators
and representatives in the national
legislature and other prominent wo
men will take part. The line of march
will be from the rendezvous, Hyatts
viiio n little hamlet iii Maryland,
eight miles from the capitol building,
west on Pennsylvania avenue and past
the White House. The latter route is
the one attempt during the parade
on March 3, last, when hoodlums in
sulted the fair marchers without hin
drance by the police, and for u time
broke up the parade. Admitting that
he has learned his lesson, Major and
Sup . 'ntendent Richard Sylvester, de
clared today that he will have, all the
streets roped off something he failed
to do on March 3 and that extra de
tails of police will be stationed along
the line of march.

of inducing Spain to join the Triple
Fntcnte. That Erance and Spam will

clusion, according to authoritativf
diplomatic sources here.
' ' Perilous Chewing. '
One of the troubles of most European
armies is that tlioxe soldiers who can
get hold of it insist on using that ter
rible explosive cordite as If It were a
sort of chewing gum. Its popularity Is
due to the fact that when chewed in
small quantities it has a stimulating
and exhilarating effect, like small doses
of alcohol. Its taste, too. Is sweet,
cordite being three-fifths nitroglycerin,
an explosive which is sugary to the
t-iste. When chewed iu large quanti
ties cordite becomes more powerful
In its effects, bringing on a blissful
state of ecstasy and sometimes mak
ing the victim of the habit see visions.
But the real danger of the habit lies
in the fact that though nitroglycerin
will only explode when given a very
hard blow or touched by an electric
spurk. there is always a possibility that
the grinding of exceptionally hard teeth
uiiht i..;-ovide the necessary hard blow.
Within- the Inst few years at least
three soldiers two (Jonnan and one
Austrian have been blown to bits, the
use of cordite us a chewing gum being
the suspected cause.
