Fourth National Bank he drew $2,
G00. niacins It in the grip also.
Three other banks report similar

local newspaper man that he had a
scheme to clean up ?10,u00 Besides

THOUSAND KACH AVEKK
Los Angeles, Oct. 2S. The cham
pion high price in local theatricals
was made by Oliver Morosco's offer
yesterday of $1,000 a week to James
.1 Jeffries, on condition that the
champion appear in a brief revival
of "Quo Vadis." Moroscov proposed
to give the piece a good cast and as
sign Jeffries to the role of "Ursus,"
the giant slave who, In a spectacular
conflict, rescues the Christian maid
en from the horns of a bull In the
arena of the Coliseum. The fighter
said that on account of his business
lie will not accept.
Pendleton, Ore., Oct. 28. As a re
sult of the long dry-spell and the re
sulting lack of succulent food sheep
are dying all over eastern Oregon.
Thus far the lossos of individual
growers have not been heavy, but al
most all of those whose sheep have
been placed on winter ranges have
suffered some.
It appears the loss has been heav
iest in Morrow and Gilliam counties,
Umatilla growers have lost some. At
Arlington, Smythe & Son have lost In
tho neighborhood of 200 head, and
William Smith, another large grower
of that section has met with a sim
ilar loss. Several are losing at the
rate or 10 a day.
The sheep men vary In opinion re
garding the cause of the deaths,
some believing that the sheep are be
ing poisoned, and others that the
change to the dry grass after being
brought In from the green mountain
grass is harmful.
Under the rules of the forestry
bureau the sheep must be taken from
the summer range In the reserves by
October 18, and as a result the sheep
were brought In early in October.
Since then they have been dying
slowly in various localities. The
sheepmen say a good rain would re
lieve the situation.
On Wednesday we will offer
some decided bargains in Shirtwaistb.

NOTES OF OREGON'S
CONSTANT PROGRESS
(Special Correspondence.)
Portland, Ore., Oct. 28. Business
men retiming from the East are
unanimous In predicting an enorm
ous immigration to Oregon during
the coming year. People residing In
Jie great cities of New York, Chica
go, Brooklyn, Philadelphia, Boston,
I'ittsburg, Cincinnati and other pop
ulous centers never expressed so
much anxiety to hear about this coun
try as nt present 'and the same idea is
rellected through the correspondence
of the Portland Commercial Club,
much of which is originating in the
cities named above.
Judge John M. Scott, of Salem,
president of tho State Good Hoads
Association, Is conducting an active
campaign In behalf of the Good
Roads Meeting to be held In the
rooms of the Portland Commercial
Club November 14 and 15. Judge
tscott desires that every commercial,
industrial, agricultural, horticultural,
and irrigation organization in the
state to send delegates.
President Ed. T. Judd, of the Ore
gon State Dairy Association, reports
constantly increasing interest In the
big state meetings to be held in Port
land December 12th and 13th. Con
stant additions are being made to the
piizts, and an active committee is at
work. It is desired above everything
else that the farmers be present on
this occasion.
Oregon never received a stronger
endorsement than the following from
the pen of Professor Charles Curtis,
uf the Ames, Iowa, Agricultural Col
leg: "There is nowhere on the face of
the globe a land or people so domin
ant lu the Improvement of live stock
or so potent in the production of the
highest types of domestic animals
as the British Islands. There is no
where on the American continent a
region affording conditions so close
lyallied to those of Great Britain as
on the North Pacific Coast of the
United States. The similarity is
noticeable, not only In climatic con
ditions and natural environment, but
also in the genuine enthusiasm and
deep-seated faith in the industry
possessed by the tillers of tho soil."
The Eugene Commercial Club has
employed Mr. John H. Hartog, of
California, to take charge of their
Hiblicity campaign at a salary of
5000 a year. Mr. Hartog will be
n important factor In the develop-1$,

Escaped Drowning.
The four year old son of Mr. and
Mrs. Mills had a narrow escape from
drowning yesterday at noon. He
was on the water front and some
bo'dy induced him to get into a row
boat. Ho landed In the boat and
then fell into the bay, but clung
with one arm to the boat. Several
people around the premises did not
have presence of mind to rescue the
little fellow, but three boys came to
his aid, George Davenport, Albert
Dawson and James Barnett, and got
him safely out. He was none the
worse for his ducking and was not
frightened.

William Gamble was In Marsh

which may be a hog by this time.
Tbo animal was a pig in September
when Mr. Gamble brought It hero
for the greased pig race at the time
of the Labor Day celebration. The
race was postponed that day, as
there was no nig when tho race was
I called. The managers of the celo-
Lration said Gamble did not bring

roaming about the outskirts of the
city and has frightened a number of
people, men and women, who have
ften been startled in tho night
time by coming across the porcine
unexpectedly. There Is no reward
for his capture, but since he is an es-t-ay,
the small boys could mnke a
stako by having a pig race and capt
uring it.
