At 12:20 this morning Mrs. Jennie Pearl Hickman died at St. Anthony's hospital after just five weeks’ suf fering following the accident in the Stephens & Jordan laundry. May 4. Mrs. Finch was 26 years, 2 months ind 22 days old. She was born in Colfax. Wash., and received most of her education there. She was the laughter of W, F. Hickman and wife She was married June 12. 1901, to A. H. Finch, of Colfax, at the home of her parents. With her husband she came to Pen lleton in April last and had just be gun housekeeping a few days prior to the accident in the laundry. The accident was peculiar, but no blame ■ould attach to anyone but the vic tim. who put her gloved fingers upon the revolving steel rollers but a few moments after the steam power had been turned on the first day the laun dry was opened. Her right hand was jerked between the rollers, horribly crushing it to the wrist. The left hand was badly mutilated in her ef forts to extricate the right. A few lays after the accident it was found necessary to amputate the right hand at the wrist. The left was crippled, but amputation was not necessary. Eventually blood poisoning set in. rom the direct effects of which she lied. She was unconscious for a week prior to her death. At the time of the accident her hus band was foreman of the laundry, ind she had called to see him put he plant in operation. Mrs. Finch was a memlier of the Methodist Episcopal church from het hildhood and the funeral will take dace at the M. E. church in Colfax U 9:3« Wednesday, conducted by Rev. U. F. Hawk, assisted by Rev. H. G. Edgar. The interment vill be made in the Johnson cemetery it Colfax. The body will lie taken to 2olfax tomorrow. A Eureka Flat Road Supervisor in T rouble. O. F. Thompson, a prominent Eure ka Flat rancher, nas been arrested ■hrged with embezzlement of road funds, he having been a road super visor. It is alleged that Thompson veld out $500 of Walla Walla county funds, the amount consisting of tail road and ¡toll tax funds ihat he had ollected. The commissioners dis covered the alleged shortage and ailed Thompson before them at the last session. He agreed to refund the money, but failing to do this was ar- tested. Sumpter to Have Water Power Plant. Work will be commenced within a few days on the new water plant at Sumpter. The plant will have a min imum capacity of 500 horse-power, of which amount the Sumpter electric tight plant will require half. The re maining power will be sold to con sumers. Location of the plant has not yet been decided on. but it will terhaps be about two miles above the town. COLFAX CATTLE SALE 5ECOND ANNUAL AFFAIR AT New Plant Will Be in Operation Mon day Next. COLFAX A DECIDED SUCCESS. The new Ross Cold Storage plant will be in at least partial operation Monday next, when the manufacture of ice will begin. The plant will not be used at first to its full capacity- tor producing ice, but will be as soon as all the details of the machinery- are in operation. Already very much of the space of the cold storage rooms is contracted by the local merchants, saloon men. fruit and butter packers and meat market people. Undoubtedly the cold storage plant fills a long-felt want and has come to stay. Good Prices for Stock Which Will Be Used to Improve Inland Empire Herds. ATHENA TOURNAMENT. Good Attendance From Pendleton and Other Points. The Athena tournament was attend ed from Pendleton by F. W. Waite. H. J. Stillman, J. M. Spence, S. R. Thompson, D. C. Clark and W. J. Sewell. Stevens, of Pomeroy, made the highest average for the meet, missing but 13 birds out of 490, which is an average of 97.4 per cent. H. J. Still man scored the second high average, or 89 per cent. The last day of the shoot Stevens scored 150 out of a ¡>os- sibie 155. A $3.50 Rate on Flour to the Orient. All the northern trans-Pacific steamship lines, including the Port land & Asiatic, have announced a re duced rate on wheat ana nour to the Orient, to meet the cut inaugurated at San Francisco. The new rate of $3 per ton for flour and $5 per ton for wheat. The previous rates were $5 and $6, respectively, for flour and wheat. High Prices for Horses. Colfax. Wash., June 8.—The sec ond annual sale of the American Shorthorn Breeders' Association in Colfax was held at the county fair grounds Saturday afternoon. It was i decided success. Thirty-four head it thoroughbred shorthorn cattle were sold and added to the number owned n the Inland Empire. The attend ance was not large, but nearly every ■iue present was a stockman and wanted to improve his herd. The bidding was spirited and good prices were obtained. Females were in greater demand than males for two reasons. First, stockmen have been importing thoroughbred bulls for two or three years and the coun- try is pretty well stocked with bulls. The saie last year consisted almost entirely of bulls. The second reason s that stockmen are now engaging in the raising of thoroughbred cattle, instead of grades, and it is necessary to have thoroughbred cows to do this. There has been such an increase in the number of thoroughbred cattle in Whitman county during the past three years that the number and quality of thoroughbred cattle owned in this country will compare favora bly with many counties in the older and more thickly populated states ot the West. The 34 head of cattle sold brought a total of $5.410, and an average of $159 per head. There were 20 fe males and 14 males sold. The females brought a total of $3,685. an average of $185.25 per head, while the males brought $1.725. an average of $123.20. The highest price paid at the sale was that bid by M. F. Gose. of Pomeroy, for a 2-year-old heifer, on which the bidding was spirited. STATE HEALTH OFFICER IS AFTER PORTLAND BUTCHERS. Meat Only Fit for Dogs Often Enters Into the Composition of Sausage— Much of it Is Colored to Give an Appearance of Freshness. Some of the Portland butchers are up hi arms over the charges of Dr. Hutchinson the state healtu officer, that much diseased and chemically treated meat is being sold in Portland. Tne butchers of the better class fa vor the city ordinance for the rigid inspection of meat. "The public, in my judgment, is en titled to protection not merely from the rascality ot the dishonest butch- er or farmer, but also trora the mis- takes ot the honest one,’’ said Dr. Hutcuinson. ■'As to my statements in regard to sausage, which seem to have stirred up so much resentment, all I can say is that most ot them were based on bitter personal experience from ex periments on my own person after eating sausage from six or seven ol the supposedly best shops in Port land, and (hat no one ■ egrets it more keenly than i do. in my visits of in ^pection I have seen material being thrown into the sausage machines in the rear of butcher shops in this city which I could scarcely think fit for anything but dog meat As I say. no one regrets this situation more keen ly than myself, hut I should be false to my idea of my responsibility and duty to the slate whose health officer 1 have tlie honor to be if I did not state the facts frankly and freely in order to bring aliout improvement. "The statements of Dr. Biendorf and the admissions of Mr Miller are also true as to the coloring of sau- •age. What the matter may be I do not know, but I <l<> know that I have seen sausage pulp come out of the machine a dirty gray color, while that which lay in the window had a beau tiful pink tint. Butchers have them selves admitted to me without the lightest hesitation that not only was the meat colored, but that after the ■ausages had been placed in the •kins they would pink it over, their July contention being that the pink was entirely harmless •’This brings me to the crux of the 'ntire question of the < .sinfectants. •eodorizers. preservatives, coloring matters and the like. It is not enough that they should be injurious n themselves to require disallowance. The fact that they conceal dangerous changes in the meat to which they ire applied is our real objection. If x butcher wishes to sell meat to a < ustomer who can appreciate that kind of thing, he has a perfect right o do so. provided his customer knows iust what he is buying. If. however, he covers the odors of incipient pu- • refaction with disinfectants, no mat ter how harmless, he is acting dis honestly. Boraclc acid is probably nearly harmless to »be healthy or ganism in the amount in which it would be swallowed upon treated meat. but. if by diminishing the odor nf decay it enables meat to pass the ■ hallenge of our stomach's best guar dian. the nose, then It is as harmful as any poison."

William O’Brien believes that im mediate and profuse rains are need ed to develop even a 40 per cent crop of wheat, while if there are no more rains at all there cannot be more than a one-fourth crop. He lately returned from the Grande Ronde valley, where rain is needed worse than here. In some places in that country the grain crops are en tirely dead for want of water. Who Owns No. 322? Travel on the main line of the Great Northern, near Bonners Ferry, Idaho, has been stopped by washouts and soft tracks, due to the freshet in the Kootenai river.

Three of the 700-class large engines are in the ditch near Bonners Ferry and others barely escaped a like fate. The bridge of the Kootenai Valley road has been swung out of position by reason of a drift having lodged against It, and it is believed the struc ture can be saved only by hard work.

It was at Bend, and in the timber region <-ontiguous thereto, that the railroad men found more immediate business for a railroad than Is offer ing at any other point visited. The timber belt of the Deschutes region embraces over 3.000.000 acres of mag nificent yellow pine, vast quantities ot which are directly tributary to Bend, and which can be taken out al a very low cost on account of the ease with which logging can be con ducted There Is immense power for mills In the river, anu most of the timber is owned by men who are financially able to put in plants of :ramense slbe These timber men have put so much money Into the country, and the demand for yellow pine at high prices is so great, that if no other opportunity is offered them they will most certainly com plete their plans by building a rail road themselves It is this timber belt that will prove the greatest mag net in drawing a railroad through from Shaniko to Bend, and the town wntch becomes the headquarters ot me industry will some day blossom into a good-sized city FOR THE GROWING CROPS. « ♦ I ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ A I A ♦ For really fine, choice Steaks-Chops Cutlets Roasts of Beet, Mut ton and Veal drop in to our shop or phone Until Saturday night we will give away absolutely free a shirt waist with each l>ress or Street Skirt Sold over $5 Note the following With With With With With every $5 skirt we give you a 5c waist. every $6 to $7 skirt we give you a ii waist. every to h.50 sk.rt we give a (1 25 to I1.50 waist, every $10 to $11 skirt we give a $1 75 to $2 waist. every $12 to ii- skirt we give a fs 25 io $2 50 waist Rihorn & Swaggan We also have a very large stock of untier skirts in all the latest materials at very low prices.
