and received an ovation similar to
the rousing welcome that have been
accorded him everywhere on his pres

tion the president was slightly In
clined to have that tired feeling after
tho busy time at St. Louis yesterday,
but, as he remarked, tho enthusiastic
demonstration upon his arrival here
was enough to make anyone forget fa
tigue. The program of the forenoon
comprised an informal reception of
prominent citizens, a luncheon at the

of the Commercial club and then a
parado to Kansas City, Kan., where
two hours were spent prior to the de

The parade started at the west end
of Main street, 'with tho old band
leading, followed by 28 little girls and
tho May qneen. Immediately follow
ing them wero the children of the
public schools, carrying floral
wreaths and banners. Next in line
marched the Boys' band, closely fol
lowed by the little tots from the
agency schools, all in uniform, whose
appearance waB greeted all down the
line by applause. The parade was
concluded by citizens in carriages and
on foot. The procession defiled from
Main to Court and thence to the court
house, where upon the steps in front
of the building, the May Queen, Miss
Lavclle Florence, was crowned.
Twenty-eight little girls gowned in
white nnd crowned with apple blos
mtos, the court ot the queen lined
tho steps and porch.
After a selection by the old band,
tho little girls gave the May pole
dance. At the conclusion of the
dance the vast throng gathered on the
green united in that grand old na
tional anthem, "The Star Spangled
Banner."
Then Mayor Thomas G. Halley
spoke. He said in part:
"Friends and fellow citizens: 1
wnnt to congratulate you on the suc
cess of this our first May dny cele
bration. If our president wero hero
I nm sure he would withdraw his
i ace suicide theory and know that
Pendleton and Umatilla county Is
progressing in the effort toward good
citizenship. i
"Yesterday the president spoke on
tho question of American citizenship.
At that time he used these words:
" .ow in 1903, in the altered con-1
dltlons, wo must meet the changed
and changing problems with the spirit I
shown by the men who in 1S03 and
In the subsequent years gained, ex-
plorcd, conquered and settled this
vast territory, then a desert, now
filled with thriving and populous
states.
" 'The old days wero great because
the men who lived in them had
mighty qualities; and we must mako
the new days great by showing these
same qualities. We must insist upon
courage and resolution, upon hard!
hood, tenacity and fertility in re
source; we must insist upon the
strong virile virtues; and wo must
insist no less upon the virtues of self-
restraint, self-mastery, regard for tho
rights of others; we must show our
abhorrence of cruelty, brutality and
corruption, in public and in private
life alike. If wo come short In any
of these qualities we shall measura
bly fall; and if, as J believe wo surely
Khnll. we develop these qualities in
the futuro to an even greater degreo
than in the past, then in the century
now beginning we shall mako ot this
republic the freest and most orderly.
tho most Just and the most mighty
nation which Iwb ever como forth
from the womb ot time.'
"While I disagree on the race sul
clde question, I agree with what ho
said In these words: 'That sentiment
it seems to me, should be taught in
every public and private school and in
every church In the land.
" 'That sentiment should havo its
Inception in the homo and tho schools.
Let our life bo as puro as tho white
robes of the children hero. Iet us go
homo and mako our homo so pure,
our lives so Just that our country
will stand tho greatest and grandest
monument that, as our president has
no aptly said, 'ever sprang from the
womb ot time.' I thank you."
At the conclusion of tho address
the crowd dispersed, most of them
going to tho ball game, between Col
fax and Pendleton teams.

PARISIANS HEARTILY RECEIVE EDWARD
Paris, May L lf one did not under
stand tho Frenrh national character
the rousing welcome accorded King
Edward upon his arrival in Paris to
day would seem moro than passing
strange. In fact, even to the initiat
ed it Is somewhat of a surprise to
see the head ot the English nation
greeted with enthusiasm apparently
so genuine when the extreme pro
Boer attitude of the French during tho
rocent South African war is recalled.
But recent moves on the European
chessboard have thrown England and
Franco closer together and the wel
come of King Edward is merely a
method chosen by Franco to empha
size this friendly understanding. Then
again international politics aside.
King Edwdrd has always been ono of
tho most popular visitors to Paris.
In his younger days, when Prince of
Wales, ho made frequent visits to the
French capital and his democratic
ways and good fellowship, to use a
slang phrase, "made a hit" with the
Parisians. .
So It Is when tho special train
bearing his majesty and his suite ar
rived at tho Lyons railway station
late this afternoon a cordial wolcome
nwnueu mem. ju - -

His majesty found the streets lavish
ly decorated In Ills honor and In the
shop windows everywhere wero dis
played his portrait. At tho top of the
Rue de la Palx, near tho Palace do
l'Operlo, there was a magnificent tri
umphal arch covered with French and
English flags and trophies. At tho
lower end of tho Ruo Castlgllone there
was a similar arch and tho Interme
diate thoroughfares were tastefully
decorated with flags and bunting and
long rows of posts strung with col
ored electric lights,
The king Is to remain In Paris until
Monday morning. Tho program pro
vided for his entertainment is as
elaborate as that propared for the
entertainment of Franco's itrong ally,
the czar, on the occasion of bis visit
to Paris a year ago. Tomorrow will
be the big day and in honor of tho
occasion of his visit many large firms
have declared a general holiday for
their employes. The program com
prises a review at Vlncenncs of 12,000
troops of tho garrison of Paris, and in
tho afternoon thero will ho a special
race meeting at Loogchanips, in which
crack horses will ho ridden by Amer
ican Jockeys, including Nash Turner,
O'Connor. Alclntyre and Jay Rausch,
At the Theater Francalse all tho best

CONTRACTOR KILLED.
Lifeless Body of James MeMahon
Found in Vestibule of His Home,
Covered With Wounds.
New York. May 1. Tho lifeless
I body of James MeMahon, a wealthy
I retired contractor, and a member of
tho executive committee or Tammany
Hall, was found In tho vcstlbulo of
his home this morning by a milk
boy. Tho head and upper part of the
body wero covered with wounds and
bruises. Thero are a number of the
ories for tho murder. Tho police
say the wounds may have boon made
by a burglar's Jimmy, Blood all over
tho walls and hallways shows that ho
made a desperate fight for hU life.
All suspicious characters In tho
city aro being arrested although the
police believe the man entered tho
houso for a purposo other than rob
bery, A brother-in-law with whom ho
boarded, Is said to have stated that
lio heard a woman's voice In tho vcs
tlbulo early this rooming. Somo offi
cers have tho theory that tho murder
was done by a woman aided by ono
man or moro. Tho only clue tho po
lice have is somo bloody foot prints
extending from tho houso.
