THE- JOLLY CLUB DANCE.
Very
Was a Well Attended and
Pleasant Event.
The dance Friday night nt Music

affairs of the season. While per
haps not so large a crowd was pres

one enjoyed tne occasion and ex
pressed themselves In the highest

The floor was not crowded, as It is
at some such occasions and this made

PENDLETON SURPRISES THEM.
Homeseekers Never Heard of This
Town and Wonder at Its Size and
Prosperity.
The coaches of tho westbound pas
senger train which came through
several hours late again today, were
all crowded with homeseekers. Men.
women nnd children rushed for the
doors of tho cars, got out onto the
platform nnd hegnn to ask questions
about Pendleton nnd the surrounding
country. All seemed to be more or
less interested in this section, but
they had heard very little about it.
Many asked how large a town Pendle
ton was, and when told it was a city
of C000 people, they were surprised.
They said Pendleton had scarcely
been heard of In the Middle States,
and they hnd formed the opinion
that It was some Bmall hamlet
stuck off In the hills as Its notoriety
novor reached the outside world.
Ono man In particular, D. B. Mc
Gee. was very much interested in
Pendleton. He asked many ques
tlons about the town nnd Umatilla
county. He is looking for farming
land, and made Inquiry nbout
prices. When told thnt ho could buy
land that would grow 40 bushels of
wheat to the acre for $30 and $35, he
was surprised. He is from Oklaho- Jones, entered Mr. Chandler's meat
ma and said he just sold a large tract market and wanted to buy enough
of land there for $52.50 an acre. On cattle to make up a carload for shlp
thlsMand the greatest crop of wheat ; racI,t. He afterward tried to sell 11
ever grown was 2'J buslieis to tno
acre.
Mr. McOee said thnt he had his
ticket for Seattle, but when he got
to Seattle and looked over that coun
try he would return to Pendleton
and perhaps settle in this vicinity.
He was accompanied by his family,
and came West partly for his wife's
health. Ho said that wherever he
settled many other Oklahoma people
would seek homes.

BOARD OF EQUALIZATION.
Poetical Editors.
Boyd, of tho Athena Press, and
Wood, of the Weston Leader, are still
upon each other
nnd the public. This is the latest
from Editor Wood, entitled. "Boyd's
Soliloquy:"
Once inside my sanctum dreary.
While I pondered, weak nnd weary,
Over that outrageous doggerel,
Doggerel I now deplore
Methought I heard a gentle bustling.
As of some mystic' garments rustling,
And a voice in anger calling .
Calling loudly, '"Nevermore!"
"It Is Satan's voice," I muttered,
(And my heart -within me fluttered)
"Satan calls to me, a sinner
Foolish stuff makes Satan sore;
Ne'er ngain .will Wood I slander,
Ne'er again to foul minds pander;
Oh, may I turn to truth and candor?
Quoth the Devil, "Nevermore!"
Charles Peterson Returns After Var.
led Experiences as a Fisherman.
Chnrles O, Peterson, who has Just
arrived in town from Alaska, will
leave tonight for Michigan to visit
Mb relatives nnd tho homo of his
childhood, . -,
Mr. Potorson was employed during
the Bummer on uristoi nay, by tho
Columbia River Packers' Association
nnd was In tho fishing business. Ho
says tho fishing was not very pros
porous this season owing to tho rough
waters. Tho salmon run wns almost
as large as usual, but the waters were
rougher than over bofore and this
made the fishing not only dangerous,
but difficult. He says that ho was
with the fishermen who wont on a
strike for higher wages a few weeks
ago, but their strlko did not pan out
to their bonoflt. Tho fishermen woro
being paid 2 cents a fish and they
struck for 3 cents, but tho company
refused to allow the raise and tho
strikers could not enforce their do-
mnnds because they" wore not suffic
iently organized.
Mr. Peterson left Bristol Bay sev-
oral weeks ago and the first day out
a Chlnnman packor died suadenly and
the crew wanted to pitch him over
board, but tho captain of tho ship
would not niiow it. Tne Chinaman
wns well and on deck nt noon and at
2 o clock ho was dead. No one knows
what was tho cauBe of death. Anoth
er fatality befell one of the boat's
crew while on the Behrlng Sea. The
weather wns very bad and the water
rough. Ono of the men was up on a
mast and fell, injuring hlmsoir so
badly that ho died a few hours later.
At bedtime I take a pleasant herb
drink, tho next morning I feel bright
and my complexion 1b better. My
doctor says that it acts gently on tho
stomach, liver and kidneys and is a
pleasant laxative. It is made from
herb:., and is prepared as easily as
tea. It is called Lane's Medicine.
