Pendleton, Or., May 13. The passing of John Hailey - Jr., who was found dead In his bed here Friday, removes another of the few remaining picturesque characters' connecting the present with Oregon of the old stage days. No stage men of the "70s and '8Q3 were better knowi than John Hailey Jr., and his father. At one time the Hailey sys tem covered the states of Oregon, Wash ington, California, Utah, Xevada and Idaho, but when the railroads began to encroach upon the business in 1885 he withdrew his coaches from the main lines. He was the, hero of many exciting adventures of the road in those days, when gold was - plentiful and men were bad. Born in Jacksonville, In this state. In 1859, he soon was taken by hie parents to Umatilla county,' where he entered school. From here the Haileys moved to Boise, where John Hailey Jr. fin ished his schooling. After he was gradu ated in 1876 his father bought one of the longest stage systems In the "West and soon made his son superintendent. Later he was made warden of the Idaho state penitentiary and chief dep uty United States marshal there. He returned to Pendleton and was made United States commissioner. It Is said of Hatley that he brought in Han Vaughn, a notorious desperado of this section. single-handed and without bloodshed, when Hailey was a deputy under County Sheriff W. D. Furnish, one of .the old school of peace officers In Eastern Oregon. Vaughn is reported to have killed more than a dozen men. Funeral arrangements for Hailey have not yet been announced, it Is expected that lodge of whiph he was a member will have charge. - Temperature Is 76; Straw Hats Out m All Slimmer Glory White straw hats which bobbed beside organdy dresses In the afternoon busi- i V 1 V- V..f snwa v .1 li ii pivtveu tucir way across sun-softened pavements to nearby soda fountains, all told the story of the ar rival of summer weather Saturday.

While the thermometer was attaining a point which indicated it to be only warm, most pedestrians were sure the weather was . hot. Protracted cool weather this spring made the'" change more noticeable. After a survey of the weather maps the district forecaster said that the .high pressure area, which had brought the -warm weather, had . settled closely over the Northwest and that Sunday "would be fair and warmer. 81 AT THE DALLES The Dalles, May 13.
