j peuo Clnb,
Barney Mullen and Perry Queenan
meet this evening In a 10-round go
before the Pendleton Athletic club.
Both men are experienced fighters
and once before fought 10 rounds to
a draw. The contest this evening
takes place at the Fraser theater.
Prank Frasler will referee the bout.
Queenan arrived In Pendleton last
night from Vancouver, B. C, where
he fought Christmas eve. The fight
tonight will be according to Marquis
of Queensberry rules, clean break. In
the opinion of local boxers clean
break fighting makes a prettier bout
and destroys the hugging matches.
Then, too, the chances of fouling are
, n8t ed many.
Two good preliminaries have been
arranged for between local amateurs.

EPIDEMIC OF TYPHOID.
O. It. & N. Firemen From the Moun
tain Division Released From Hos
pital.
After suffering for weeks with se
vere cases of typhoid fever, supposed
to have been caused by the extremely

R. A N. firemen from the La Grande

ting. William Driskell, James Gavin
and Ed Johnson. All are now re
leased, but they have not returned to
work yet, being to weak to stand
the strain of their duties on the mons
ter locomotives of the mountains.

carry a plentiful supply of fresh wa
ter over the road and do not drink
water from the engine tanks. Other
engines on which regular crews are
not assigned are not equipped with
these kegs and the crew drinks from
