BUNCOED AT UMATILLA.
"Lat the GOLD DUST twins do your work."
P. E. Patterson Loses $45 Which rje
Loaned a Stranger on Security of
' Forged Draft.
Whllo waiting between trains at
Umatilla a few days ago, P. E. Pat
terson was buncoed out of $t5 by a
man by the name of A. D. Lano.
Lane and Patterson had been work
ing in tho Palouso harvest fields and
Patterson concluding that he had
made all the money he wanted, an
nounced that he was going to return
to his home in tho East. Lano said
he was coming to Eastern Oregon and
would accompany Patterson on his
way. They became fast friends and
Patterson was glad to have Thane's
company. When they reached Uma
tilla the trains were lato and the
young men had to lay over several
hours. Tane became separated from
Patterson and when he returned said
he had become Involved In a poker
game and lost all of his ready cash.
He asked his friend to help him out
of the pinch by loaning him ?45. Pat
terson demurred, but Lano told him
he would give him all of tho security
ho wanted. Ho drew a draft from
his pocket calling for $2300 on tho
Pocatclla Brfnk. This looked good to j
Patterson and he took It as socurit
for tho ?45 until Lano could get some '
money from the bank. Lane then left
his friend and that was the last seen
of him. This did not worry Patter
son until he found that tho draft was
a forgery and ho had been buncoed
out of his hard-earned cash. Lane It
still at large although the officers are
making every effort to locate him.

HE WAS EASY.
So Says Miss Dollle Brown, of Downs,
Washington.
A letter of Inquiry was received
Tuesday by Judge Thomas Fltz Ger
aid from Mrs. A. L. Brown, ot
Downs, Wash., wanting to know It
the marriage of Miss Jeannetto Xa
Pierrl and A. W. Melton, by tho judge
a few months ago, was legal.
There is quite a romance behind
the marriage of these young people.
Miss La Pierri came to Pendleton a
few months ago and was met the next
evening for the first time by Mr. Mel
ton. It wns a case of lovo at first
sight at least on the part of Melton,
but It seems that tho young lady was
looking for a graft of some kind and
married for the money she was lead
to believe tho young man possessed.
They were married tho second day
after meeting, and It was only a few
days after the wedding until tho
bride, finding that the wealth of the
young man was limited, left him with
out ceremony. She left a note be
hind telling her husband how she had
"worked" him and for him not to be
so "easy" next time.
The letter written to Judge Fltz
Gerald is supposed to como from tb
young woman's mother, and it states
that her name was not La Pierri, but
Dollie Brown, and instead of being
13 years of age, as tho llcenso stat
ed, she was only IB. Now she wants
to know if the marriage was legal.
Just what answer the judge will
mako to the Inquiry has not been de
termined.

cratlc county convention met In this
city yesterday, named a ticket, nass-
ed strong resolutions In favor of a
railroad commission, elected 18 dele
gates to the state convention, and
reorganized the campaign committee
for the ensuing year. The body did
us Dusiness with dispatch, but no un
usual amount of enthusiasm was man
ifest. The work required a little over
three hours time.
The convention was organized by
tho election of Francis A. Garrecht
chairman, and J. J. Schlllner, secre
tary. Tjie usual committees were
named and the forenoon session clou
ed until 1:30 to allow the commit
tees to report. In the afternoon the

and other business transacted.

olutions indorse a railroad commls
sion, condemn the republican party,
