PENDLETON, Or., Aug. 17. (Special.) Further particulars of the shooting of Deputy Sheriff Scott RItchey yesterday ihow that Ritchey, -with Two assistants, located Cofcr and his partner In a cabin about six miles from Athfena, and com manded all sides of It. Ritchey, armed with a Winchester, approached the door, while the others -watched the windows.. Suddenly the door opened and the robbers "opened fire. Rltchey's gun failed to -work and he -was shot at the first fire. For tunately he fell behind a log, -which par tially concealed him. Ten shots In all wero fired at him, only one taking effect. The rest of the posse, -whp -were poorly armed, decamped. The robbers then fled, taking Rltchey's horse. When news of the disaster reached Athena another party started to the cabin and immediately gave chase. The robbers crossed the Washington Btate line, and -when last seen today -were on the Touchet River. A posse from Walla Walla is also In pursuit of tho xobbers. It is' thought Ritchey will recover. EVES BETTER. THAN 1001. Expansion to Meet Needs of Exhlb itora Large Attendance In "Vievr. SALEM, Or., Aug. 17. (SpeclaL) The Improvements which are now under way at tho State Fair grounds Indicate that this year's Fair -will excel the last, which, up to that time, was the most successful in the history of the fair. Expansion to meet the demands of exhibitors, visitors and owners of race horses, is the order of the day. The opening day of the Fair Is four weeks away, but all that time will be occupied in preparing for a proper representation of the resources and in dustries upon which Oregon depends for her future greatness. An effort will be made, in that exhibition of our products, to convince all visitors from other states that Oregon affords greater advantages to the homeseeker than any other state. The display of products in competition for prizes will not only be a source of information to all who attend the Fair, but will be a source of encouragement to other Oregon farmers to endeavor to Improve the quality of everything they raise on the farm, orchard or range. The certainty that the exhibition will be greater than ever before leads to the conclusion that the attendance will also 'be increased. For the accommodation of the public, new entraces to the grand stand at the race track have been con structed with a view to avoiding any crowding. The large 'purees that have hppn offpred for the Important races Tinv oftmrtort manv owners of fast "hntwfts. and the trials of speed will have unusual interest. It has been found ne cessary to enlarge tho paddock built last vfir for the racers. Because of the large number of head rjf livestock that will be brought to the Fair this year, the Southern Pacific Company is extending its sidetrack at thp Fair erounds. The numDer oi euui for cattle, horses, sheep and swine was doubled last year, and probably not many new stalls will be needed thia season. With the greatly increased size of the navillon. the construction of a new cr,earoery building and the erection of a new machinery nan. tne avauaom aya. Vina hn made about eaual to the de mands. The strong competition for the Tiromlums In the county exhibit contest will result in more attractive exhibits In this department than ever Deiore. SOON READY FOR LOGS. I. R. & N. Co. Receives the Blsscst Donkey on the Peninsula. ILWACO. Wash., Aug. 17. (Special.) The Ilwaco Railroad & Navigation Com- nanv is in receipt or tne largest aontey engine on the peninsula . It weighs over in tons nnd will be placed at Nacotta for loirtrlne nurooses. Driving for the boom at Ilwaco has been completed and -work at Nacotta is being rushed. The engineer corps hopes to have the system complete for the transportation of logs across to the Columbia River in 10 days. Crowd for Long Beach. The steamer Potter yesterday brought 800 passengers from Portland and 160 from Astoria. This is the largest pas senger list this season. It took all the coaches and excursion cars of the I. R. & W. system to accommodate the crowd. Fall Salmon Already. The run of Fall salmon has started In Baker's Bay, the fish taken in the last lew days being eilversldes of exception ally fine quality. Fish-receiving scows -were taken in tow for Astoria yesterday afternoon, and cannery tenders will be tied up for the Winter. A large number of Ilwaco fishermen are making prepa rations to Fall fish in Shoalwater Bay, and McGowan Bros, will open their North River cannery as soon as possible. bushels. None that he has threshed has yielded less than 40 bushels per acre. It Is all Fall wheat, sown on Summer fallowed land. Farmers are greatly concerned about the scarcity of men and teams, and few threshers or headers have full crews. There never was known such a scarcity of horses, this being due to the heavy sales of horses during the past two years. The Assessor's report. Just filed with the County Auditor, shows tnat there are 1U7 fewer horses than one year ago, despite the natural increase. This nos naa a nouceooie eiieci in me uumuci of horses to be had for harvest work. and farmers and threshing machine own ers are scouring the country trying to hire horses. A man with a four-horse team can readily secure employment at $3 per day and board. It Is estimated that 1000 more horses are needed to do the work In the harvest fields of Whitman County. SUIT OVER GOLCONDA. Damages Sought for Failure to Com plete Purchase of Mine. BAKER CITY, Or., Aug. 17. (Special.) For several days past the attorneys representing the principals In the suit of J. T. .and J. G. English, of Illinois, vs. A. Smith, of Ohio, for 5343.000, have been busy taking depositions of -witnesses in this city, to be used In the trial of the case before the Ohio court. Hon. J. L. Rand, of this city, represents the plain tiffs and Hon. C. A. Johns represents the defendant In the matter of taking the depositions. Hon. R. W. Taylor, a mem ber of Congress from McKinleys old dis trict in Ohio, who is Mr. Smith's attor ney, is here looking after the interests of "his client In the matter of depositions, and Incidentally looking up facts in rela tion to the controversy between his client and the Englishes. In February. 190L a A. Smith entered Into an agreement with J. T. and J. G-. English, father and son, owners of the Golconda mine, for the purchase of 980,000 shares of stock In the mine for 1400,000. Smith was to expend 53500 per month on the property for the period of 12 months, and make certain payments on the pur chase price of the stock from time to time, and in the end was to become the absolute owner of the 9S0.000 shares of stock. The right to acquire the stock -was at Smith's option. The stock was all placed in the hands of a. trustee, under an irrevocable power of attorney to vote the stock and carry out the terms of tho contract. Smith took possession of the property and operated the mine until October, iwu, expending, as he claims, his own money as well as the money taken from the mine, some $20,000, but It did not come up to his expectations, so he quit work and opened negotiations -with, tho Englishes to take back the mine, and abandoned, it Is allegsid, his rights under the contract. There is a controversy between tne par ties as to the terms of this latter agree ment. The Englishes resumed control of th Trooertv in November. 1301. About six weeks ago the Englishes broucht suit against Smith in Ohio, un- dpp the- laws of that state, for damages for failure to carry out tho terms of the contract made in February, 1901, alleging that the mine was improperly worked; that he had refused to turn over the mine and stork. Thev also alleged separate damages, the aggregate being $343,000. The Ooleonda. mine was sold by the iuigusnes. after they resumed control of it again last November, to- a synaicate oomposeu of Sumpter and Pendleton people, for J250.O00 cash. It Is now being worked and has become oulte nromlnent. owing to a -wonderfully rich strike made soon after the present owners took possession. It is reportea now to be one of the richest mines in the fltato. Mr. Smith says that he lost $40,000 be sides the $30,000 which he took out in nis effort to develop the mine and put it on a -paying basis. ELEPHANTS IN THE DITCH.

COLFAX, Wash., Aug. 17. (Special.) Considerable rain has fallen throughout the Palouso country the past two daj's. and harvest work has been suspended. No damage has been' done, as the grain was -unusually hard and dry and It will require a heavy rain to soften it In the least. Harvest work was well under way. and in the western part of Whitman County nearly half of the grain had be'en cut. but not more than 20 per cent was threshed. The grain is found to be of excellent quality and is yielding well. the average in the "dry belt," in the ex treme western part of the county, being about 20 to 2a pusnels per acre for Spring grain. There is no Winter wheat In that section. In the country between Colfax and Snake River, Bome threshing has "been done, and the grain is yielding im mensely.

Clay Gordon, tho youns Milton lawyer who tt as arrested at Huntington and brought here Friday and had a prelimi nary hearing yesterday on tne cnarge oi obtaining money under false pretenses, was committed to tho County Jail, hav ing failed to securo ball. Later develop ments are rather sensational ana mane his conduct seem more serious than, was at first supposed. Ho Is about SS years old, or good ad dress. Ho camo to Milton last February! opened a law office, claimed to bo the nephew of Judge Gordon, of Spokane, formerly of the Supremo Court of Wash ington; said he had a millionaire father at Houston, Tex., and was soon In high favor In Milton. Ho did somo business, became engaged to marry one of Milton's best youig ladles, and the wedding day was set a few weeks ago. Ho Dougnt a house for $1300, paying $100 down, and giv ing a draft on his father in Houston. Tex., for $100, which came back Indorsed, "Not known here." Ho Improved tho houso to the extent of $1000, got a $250 rubber tired buggy and a fast horse. Ho came to Pendleton on Wednesday, raised $75 on checks, bought a ticket to Kamela, board ed tho eastbound train, entered tho sleep er, gave tho Pullman conductor money to buy a ticket to Huntington, then gave the porter money to buy a ticket at Hunting ton for Pocatello. The Huntington Mar shal had been wired to arrest him, saw the porter buying tho ticket, became In quisitive and arrested Gordon. Gordon now admits before tho District Attorney that he was not a nephew of Judge Gor don, denies that his father Is a million aire, or will help him, and says he was never admitted to the bar and has not studied law. He now says his father lives at Matogardo, Tex., but quarreled with and left him three years ago. So far as known, the only money he paid for house repairs, horse and buggy wa3 the $100 paid when ho got tho deed for the house. wholesalo in very largo quantities, in cooking on a large scale, and in utilizing all the waste products. LAWS OF HEREDITY. "Three Generations to Malco s Gentleman" Is Fact, Not Theory. London Telegraph. Professor Karl Pearsons, F. R. S., who has taken a leading part In founding the doctrine of evolution on a statistical basis, explained to a deeply interested audience at tho Royal Institution some of the re sults which have been arrived at. Two of these are of special importance. It Is shown by examination of large numbers of persons that mental and moral as well as physical qualities are Inherited, and to the same extent. Taking shool children and examining them minutely with respect to curllness and color of the hair, length, breadth and height of the head, color of the eyes, tho cephalic Index, and health on tho ono hand; and on the other testing them for intelligence, vivacity, conscientiousness, popularity, temper, self-consciousness, shyness, and handwriting, tho degree of Inheritance In tho two categories camo numerically as 'close as 521 to 522. Sec ondly, It is proved that two or threo gen erations will suffice to create a new stock. Statistics of largo numbers show that there Is more than Is often supposed in the saying, "It takes threo generations to make a gentleman," and In tho expres sion, "Visiting the sins of tho fathers up on tho children to the third and fourth generation." Pedigree In humanity, as in tho lower animals, Is a vital factor. Thus a family or a nation will certainly pro gress or degenerate as the issuo of heredity. It needs but to repress tho numbers of the better and higher and to multiply tho numbers of tho lower and less fit for two or threo generations to make national degeneration terribly real. Professor Peareons tabular results showed tho universality of the laws of Inheritance, not only in animals like horses and dogs, but In lowly Insects and even In plants. WHOLESALE RESTAURANTS Places Where Cheap Eatlnjr Houses Obtain Cooked Food. New York Evening Post. If It were assorted without any expla nation that there wero restaurants in New York which cooked large quantities of food day and night and yet which never sold a mouthful to a person within their doors, It would certainly arouse doubt or ridicule. Yet such la the fact. There are more than 40 establishments of this class in New York. Their customers are not hungry men, but restaurants, eating booths, oyster stands and free lunch counters. There was a time when every placo of this sort owned and used Its own kitchen, but the Increase of rents, the decrease In the size of store property, and the greater economy necessitated by keen competition have brought the whole sale restaurant Into existence and made it a financial success. Most of those affairs are on. the East Side, and are managed by Germans, He brews, Swiss and English, their numbers being In the order named. They supply roast beef, lamb, veal, mutton, corn-beef and pork, pot roasts, baked and boiled fish, fried oysters, clams, scallops, eels, fish balls and soft-shell crabs, boiled po tatoes, cabbage, turnips and beets. A few supply a larger bill of fare, but the demand for their goods Is compara tively limited. They purchase good, wholesome material, employ excellent cooks, own efficient delivery wagons and run affairs upon a good business basis. When you pass an oyster stand, and seo nicely fried oysters and soft-shell crabs neatly piled upon a platter, and decorated with little sprigs of parsley, twice out of three times you look at the wares of these establishments. The tiny restaurants In the business districts, and especially those which cater to clerks and worklngmen, depend almost entirely upon the wholesale restaurants for their food. Oddly enough they can sell their cooked food to tho retail restaurant for lees than what the latter wbuld pay for the raw I materials. This corned from buying The Glcnners. Detroit Free Press. The old custom of gleaning In tho har vest fields, which recalls the Biblical story of Ruth and Naomi, is not obsoleto in England, and In Hertfordshire, Bed fordshire and tho neighboring counties, as soon as the wheat is gathered in the lato days of August, there may be seen In tho newly-cleared fields numbers of women and children diligently picking up one by one the scattered ears and form ing them into neat little sheaves, which they carry In their hands until large enough to bo bound up. When the day light falls, all the booty Is bound up In cloths and carried home on the heads of the gleaners. AUhomo they thrash It out by hand and sell the grain or use It for their chickens. The gathering of a half peck Is usually a full day's work for a child, and often a woman spends a wholo day In gathering very little more. Glean ing, however. Is looked upon somewhat In the light of a picnic. The mother and children leave home In the morning, take with them food for tho day, and stay out In tho fields until nightfall.
