The first annual outdoor meet InE of the Lewis County Pure Breeders' Association was held on the grounds of the Claquato Schoolhouse, situated on the banks of the Historic stream, about three miles southwest of this city, this afternoon. Words can scarcely describe the beauty of the day or the rare sight of 400 or 600 nappy people congregated I under the great maple trees to do honor to the opening of a work that IB cer tain to mean great things for the pro gressive Deople of this county. Women of the community had tables spread sufficient to accommodate the ruests. After an hour spent at the tables the assembly was called to order by N. B. Coffman, of this city, president of the association, and after a few pertinent remarks as to the origin, scope and purposes of the association he intro duced Judge E. R. Brady, a Guernsey breeder of Satsop, Wash., who gave an added impetus to the remarks of the president. Then followed Governor Withycombe, of Oregon, the honor guest of the occa sion. The Governor was at his best both in voice and sentiment and he cer tainly made it plain that he thought the association had undertaken a work which should be followed by other com munities. The Governor referred to the scien tifically bred cow as the "wet nurse of agricultural prosperity." Livesfbck he declared to be the basis of agriculture, and without Improved livestock he de clared little progress in farming pos sible. "More boys and girls, he a serted, "should stay on the farm and their surroundings should be made such that they will stay. The real hope of the country lies in the farm." Then in succession addresses were de livered by William Bishop, of Chllocum Wash.; George R. Walker, secretary of the association; J. W. Sutton.

The Crook County Fair will be held at Prinevllle September 27 to 30. From all Indications it will surpass the fair held last year,-which Gover nor Withycombe, J. W. Brewer, of the Portland Chamber of Commerce, and others who attended most of the fairs in the state last year said was among the best. Crop conditions in Central Oregon are far better than they have been for years, and this alone should insure the best fair ever held in Eastern Oregon. As for livestock, this year this part of the fair will be as largo or even larger than last. Judging from the res ervations for stalls that are coming in dally to Manager Schee. Herbert A. Munter. the aviator who appeared at the Oregon State Fair las season, will give an exhibition each day. doing all his thrilling Btunts, and other attractions will be given daily in front of the grandstand. The race programme is much better this year and la addition to the race programme there will be frontier ex hibluons. A fat steer will be given away this year to the person guessing nearest the correct weight, and the night show and carnival will be held on the treet again this year, as it was a great success last season.

Clark's Escape From Salem Si o Have Been Revealed Through Conspiracy to Defraud. SALEM, Or.. Aug. 6. (Special.) Sympathy for J. L. Clark, returned from Spokane today as a fugitive to the Ore gon penitentiary, is misplaced, .and ef forts to secure a pardon for him from Governor Withycombe are misdirected. according to Joseph Keller, state parole I orricer. Clark, alias Rhinehart. escaped from I the prison here in 1913, while em ployed as a trusty at the asylum farm. The arrest of Clark in Spokane came about. Officer Keller said tonight, when 1 Clark tried to secure damages from I the Spokane Street Railway Company I for alleged injuries to his wife by fall ing from a car last April. First intimation that the accident was "arranged was conveyed to the I Spokane police by Mrs. Stevens, mother of Mrs. Clark, according to Mr. Keller, I who said she told the police that the I accident was a plot by Clark and hlsl wife to obtain money from the com pany. Miss Stevens, a sister of Mrs. I Clark, according to Officer Keller, was I in on the deal, Clark having agreed I to give her a part of whatever money! tney ootainea. she was witn Mrs. Clark when the "accident" took place. The police placed a dictograph In the I Clark home, by which details of the plot were obtained through conversa tions which the Clarks carried on in the house. This evidence was pre sented to the attorney for the Clarks. I and resulted in the quashing of the I suit. The dictograph also revealed the I fact that Clark had escaped from the i Oregon penitentiary. Officer Keller has information which I leads him to believe that Clark was 1 convicted of obtaining money by false I pretenses about a year ago in Kansas I City. and. was paroled. He is lnvesti- I gating. BUNGALOW PLAN WANTED I Pasadena College Asks for Drawings of Residential Fi rehouse.
