The losers proved to be "good
losers" in the Christain Endea
vor Society contest on Tuesday even
ing when they "made good" their
promises that of banqueting the win
ners. The feast was not only ten
dered but a social was given in honor
of the "Reds" the winning team
It was on June 9th the the local
Young People's Christian Endeavor
waH divided into two teams, the Reds
and the Whites. Miss Pearl Halliday
was chosen captain of the "Whites
and Mrs J. Kelley leader of the
"Reds" and the members of the so
ciety were epually divided for the
purpose of contesting for honors as to
which side would by September 1st
bring in the largest number of new
members into the society. Points
were also to b given on the best at
tendance and for the largest number
on each team taking part in the week
ly Sunday meetings.
It was a royal contest that started
on June 9th. The Reds started to
work earnestly and the Whites put
forth every effort to win, but on Sep
tember 1st the Reds had brought in
15 new members to the 14 secured by
the opposing team. The meetings
were enlivened by larger numbers in
attendance and nearly everybody was
taking part. However, the Reds won
with 980 points to their credit against
803 secured by the Whites. It had
been a battle royal and the total mem
bership of the society has in
creased to 63 as the result of the con
test. Naturally the Reds were anxious
about the promises of the losers and
on Tuesday evening eighty Endeavors
and friends filled the Episcopal Guild
hall to enjoy th big event. Games
of various kinds were enjoyed before
a splendid program was rendered con
sisting of a piano sole by Miss Hill,
recitation by Mrs. Kester, vocal solo
by Mrs. Dunlop, recitation by Miss
McColm; quartet by Mrs. Ruring,
Miss Cook, C. B. Smith and Kev.
Cook ; and a violin solo by Vernon
Trout. All of the selections were so
greatly enjoyed that each number on
the program was most appreciatively
encored.
Guessing and matching games then
formed the pastime until President
Frank Mulkey "put one" over the
winners by announcing that the ban
quet would now be served each per
son then receiving two small soup
crackers and an extra thin slice of
cheese it was a two-course feast.
The mouths of the winners drop-
ped-the "Whites" had at last
beaten the "Reds." But the joke
was too good to keep and after partners
had been chosen Mrs. Kelley, captain
of the winning team, was ordered to
lead the procession to the Odd Fellows
hall where a "real feed" was await
ing all.
The banquet hall presented a
beautiful sight with red and white
streamers adorning the loaded festal
board. After Miss Pearl Halliday,
captain of the losing side, had escorted
her rival to the gaily decorated chair
of honor at the head of the banquet
hall, a jolly crowd of eighty Endeavors
and invited guests busied themselves
amongst the friedjehicken, salads, buns,
olives, pickles, peaches and cream,
coffee and cake. It was a grand treat
and the winners were so overcome by
the array of "good things" that their
obligations to the losers were all for
gotten.
The success of the entertainment
features wax due to the social and
program committee consisting of Miss
Hazel Mulkey and Frank Mulkey,
while credit for the sumptuous feast
was due to the banquet committee
composed of Miss Pearl Halliday, Mrs.
Nellie Shea and Mrs. J. O. Johnston.
Miss Erma Hope made up a committee
of one who secured the hall for the
event.

RED BUTTE RANCHERS
ARE "TAKEN IN"
(Continued from Page 1)
Going into the Red Butte country
they made themselves known to the
ranchers of that section, and at Ed
Palmers they not only secured gasoline,
provisions from his store but they were
housed in Frank Palmer s old cabin
and given all the comforts possible.
Lester began to hire buckaroos of
that section, promising them $6 a day,
for the purpose of rounding up large
numbers of horses. Some were bought
from Ed Palmer, and Hugh Shaver,
who were either given a check or
promises from the smooth "Walling
ford. the Second.-' As soon as a
number of horses were secured they
were rushed to Ontario or to Vale and
sold at anv old price, ad in the
majority of cases at less than half of
ua nriirinnl nrire. The money was
pocketed and the gang then went on
a tear. Broke they would return to
their Red Butte headquarter and start
their operations over again, and this
continupd until the latter part of last
week, when Ed Palmer, who held about
$750 worth of checks, and who was
out provisions, etc., lecame suspicious
and under pretense of wanting to buy
a horse the gang had in Ontario, got
them in the toils of the law. It is
understood that Shaver got as much
as $30 for a bunch of horses which
were sold for about $6. The Red Butte
buckaroos were never paid and are
still longing for their $6 per day.
When Lester was brought to the
bank to face his checks, he
became indignant upon learning
that he had no money deposited to his
account. He could not understand it
and again promises were mdae to
Palmer that a large trust company
was backing him in his enterprise and
that upon the first shipment of horses
he would be advanced all the money
he wanted. When turned over to the
officials, Lester became still more in
dignant. However, little could be
learned as the other members of the
eana would noc neacn on ineir
leader.
Lester waived his preliminary hear
ing and was placed under $1500 bond.
He would have his bond the next morn
ing, but he is still in jail and the gang
has since split up and is fighting over
the ownership of a few horses. It
is understood that Lester and his gang
did the ranchers of Red Butte to the
tune of $1500.

FRIGHT CAUSES DEATH OF
MRS. WESLEY GAMBLE
The family, of which Wesley Gam
ble is the head, moved Monday from
Vale to the island near Nyssa. Mrs
r.nmhle and her three children, to-
nether with most of their household
effects, had crossed the ferry in the
lute afternoon and were inside their
new home on the island when the hus
l,nnd ar.d father started back across
the ferry on a second trip over the
river. Nothing would have happened
had it not been for the high wind,
constantly increasing in violence.
As the ferrvboat was making its
second trip, after conveying Mrs.
Gamble apd the children across in
safety, the force of the wind against
the boat snapped the cable on which
the craft depended and the ferryboat
Btarted to drift aimlessly and beyond
control down stream. The men on the
boat were not excited, and in but little
danger, but the Gamble hoy, who saw
the mishap from the bank of the island,
fearine for his father's safety and
hearing the loud voices of the men
aboard, ran rapidly to the house and
in an excited manner informed his
mother of what was transpiring down
on the windswept river.
The mother was in a very delicate
condition and fearing that her hus
band might be drowned, became so
affrighted that it brought about the
birth of her infant child and within
24 hours thereafter caused her own
death. The men on the ferryboat
landed safely when the craft grounded
just below the railroad bridge
A consignment of material for use
on the Coos Bay Railroad arrived last
night from Portland and ill be
shipped to Yaquina from which point
it will be taken by boat to Coos Bay.
The consignment included a large

aid to the many new settlers.
They realize that Hon. W. H.

the greatest of opportunities to thtf

storing of the flood waters of the small

that the ranchers of that coutrny will
