WOOL CROP BIG
SOLD AT RAPID RATE
. At the rate wool is now moving in
this state the indications are for a
clean-up of the state's . clip earlier
than for many years past In all the
wool-growing sections east of the
mountains buyers have been busy
since the opening of the season, and
the more or less general willingness
of the producers to sell at the prices
offered, which have averaged 2 to 3
cents above last year's range, has
made It possible to move a very con
siderable portion of the states- output
at private sale. It is believed now
that very nearly hree-quarters of the
clip has passed out of first hands.
The latest events of interest were
the sales at Shaniko Tuesday and
Wednesday when a total of approxi
mately 1,600,000 pounds of the pro
duct was taken oyer by buyers at
prices running from 131 to 18J cents
a pound. On the whole the prices
paid there, while not the best paid in
the state this season, were fairly satisfactory-
to the sheepmen. One
large efip, that of the Prineville Land
& Livestock Company, aggregating
120,000 pounds, which it was expected
would be disposed of at the Shaniko
sale, is reported to have been held
over for the sale at that place July
Nearly all the other clips in the
Shaniko warehouses were sold.
Curious to Know.
"Why do. you call this a bam sand
wich?" "Because," said the smiling propri
etor, "there is a piece of ham in it."
"Indeed," said the sarcastic customer.
"That is interesting. May I ask if you
throw in a search warrant with each
one by means of which the ham may
be found?"
Judge Beatie and Dr. Beatie have
purchased three carloads of sheep,
"which have been delivered at their

ers that could be obtained in the state.

The credentials committee had no
sooner met than the Roosevelt min
ority started a bitter parliamentary
squabble over the order in which the
cases should for alphabetical consid
eration; the, Roosevelt men demand
ed a start with Texas. Chairman De
vine ruled for the alphabetical order
and the ninth Alabama was called up.
It was noted that Committeemen
Heney, California; Harris, Kansas;
Carrington, Maryland; Cowler, North
Carolina; Morton Oklahoma; Way,
South Dakota; ana Cady, Wisoonsin
all Roosevelt supporters were not
in attendance at the meeting.
R. R. McCormick, Illinois represent
ative, obtained a proxy, on his show
ing that his voice had failed. Massa
chusetts, still being deadlocked over
their choice for the committee, was
unrepresented.
The minority's first move was made
through Committeeman Halbert of
Minnesota for a recess in order that
the Rooseveltites might further con
fer. The motion was voted down, and
in the squabble that ensued, Chair
man Devine ordered Halbert to sit
down.
The Minnesotan kept his feet but
finally sat down when Devine direct
ed the sergeant-at-arms to enforce his
order.
Consideration of the ninth Alabama
contest was then begun ,over vigor
ous protest of the Roosevelt support
ers. They objected to -Committeeman
Burch of Alabama sitting in judg
ment on that particular case, and
Burch finally declared he would not
vote on the question.
Judge Hundley, of Alabama, who
appeared before the national commit
tee in the same case, argued in be
half of the Roosevelt forces, in behalf
of the regularity of the contesting
delegation. . -t- '
The two contested Taft delegates
from the ninth Alabama district were
seated, 34 o 14. -
F. W. Estabrook of New Hampshire
made the motion to seat the Alabam
ans. Chairman Devine ruled that
"facts were only to be answered, and
no new evidence introduced." This
ruling will expedite the other con
tests.
Chairman Devine eased up his al
leged "gag rule" so far as to permit
committeemen to explain their votes
upon roll call. .

PIONEERS TALK OF OLD
TIMES AT REUNION
Among the pioneers attending the
annual reunion in Portland are Mr.
and 'Mrs. Burr Johnson, of Pendleton,
parents of G. F. Johnson, Deputy
County Aassessor. Mr. and Mrs.
Johnson will visit their son several
days. Mr. Johnson came to Oregon
in 1844 and Mrs .Johnson in 1847.
Rev. T. L. Jones, '52, a pioneer pas
tor and chaplain of the pioneer asso
ciation gave the invocation at the
opening meeting of the reunion and
after Mrs. Clyde B. Aitchison had
sung "Annie Laurie," Councilman
George L. Baker delivered an address
of welcome- in behalf of Mayor Rush
light, to which President Miller re
sponded. -
The annual address was made by
Robert G. Smith, mayor of Grants
Pass and son of pioneer of '53. The
annual dinner was served at 4:30
o'clock. This dinner is one of the
great events of the year. i
Though the reunion is smaller in
numbers than it was last year, the
spirit of pioneer days is strong as
ever in the band of early settlers who
gathered to talk again over the early
days and clasp the hands of the
friends of years. Many journeyed from
afar to be present.
Boiled Alive.
In English statutes of the sixteenth
century the punisbme tic set down for
the crime of murdering by poison was
boiling alive, and n girl was actually
executed in that ghastly fashion lii
1538 Father Smne of, Canterbury suf
fered the same death; A curious ac
count is in existence which gives the
amount paid "for two men who set thp
kettle and parboiled him" and "to tho
women that scoured the kettle." The
sentence was not always carried out
with so much ferocity, for culprits were
sometimes hanged before being boiled.
In one case it is recorded that a man
was first hanged, then boiled. and then"
quartered.

A Ray of Light.
The straightest thing In nature or
art is a ray of light when passing
through a medium of uniform density
Hence the eye is enabled to test the
straigbtness.of an edge or tube by, ho.d
ing it as nearly as possible coincident
with a ray of light, such parts as de
part from straigbtness then Intercept
ing a ray aud causing a sjiade to be
cast upon other parts. It Is not known
jat what early period In the history of
mankind the discovery was made that
straightness could be thus determined.
It is certain that thousands of mechan
ics use the method without being able
to give a rational explanation of it-Exchange.
Rivers.
Pascal has a beautiful definition of
rivers. He says they are roads that
march.

committee appointed for that purpose
and a number of inferested property

use than any other paving, and found
it eminently satisfactory wherever
used; perfectly surviving every test
of wear and of climatic conditions, and
proving the most econimical of all
pavings because of the fact that it
will support the heaviest traffic for
years without repairs.
