THE RUSH IS OVER
CHIN. IS NOW EXPERI
ENCING BREATHING BI'Kl.L.
IWf of Dispatchers Has Been Cut
Down From Six to Three Men
Train and Engine Crews Hare Suf
ficient Rest and Empty Cars Are
Now Plentiful Temporary Rnsh Is
, Expected When St. liouls Exhibits
, Stan From the East.
The nerve-racking, sleep-destroying
high-tenaion rush of business which
has been experienced by the O. R. &
N. system for the past three months
has subsided and only the normal
business of the system Is now passing
over the lines.
At no place on the system is the
cessation of the rush more heartily
welcomed than In the offices of the
dispatcher at La Grande, where for
three months the wires were hot.
slzxling, sputtering, every minute In
the day, and where for hours ut a
time, the cherished corn cob pipe lay
on the desk, unllghted, because of the
more stern business duties pressing
upon the weary dispatcher.
The force In the dispatcher's office
has been reduced from six to three
dispatchers, beside A. Buckley, chief.
Instead of each trick dispatcher work
ing half a division from La Grande
each way, the wires have been cut In,
and one man now handles the busi
ness from Umatilla to Huntington, as
of yore, and there are breathing spells
between train orders and hurry-up
alls for cars.
Train crews now get plenty of rest
between trains, engine men have
time in which to souk the grime from
their faces and necks, and the operat
ors at the way stations can "snooze,"
peacefully on the benches, as of old.
Only the regular trains are now
running, and business not heavy at
any point on the road. A temporary '
j-usn is expected when the Bt. LOUIS
exhibits begin to arrive from the
East, but at present there Is nothing
even the call boys at the
division points.
Empty cars are now plentiful
everywhere, and the mountain crews
are wnltlng for a freeze in Baker
valley, to start the Ice harvest at
North Powder. The overworked en
jclnes will be taken Into the shops for
repairs, where scales that have been
accumulating for three months will
be removed, and engine crews will be
.treated likewise.

Pendletnnlan Is Selected to Bear the
Returns of Oregon's Election to
Washington.
After a good nutured deadlock of
one day, the presidential electors of
Oregon selected Judge JameB A. Fee.
of this city, as messenger to bear the
returns of Oregon's presidential elec
tion to Washington, D. C.
Each of the electors wished to go to
Washington, If possible nnd a plens-
ant rlvuiry kept the four electors in
session for a whole day without ar
riving at a conclusion, when Secre
tary of State F. I. Dunbar, suggested
a compromise move, and prepared
four Blips of puper, on one of which
was written the word "messenger."
The slips were shaken in a hat and
euch mun drew a slip. Grant B. Dim
mlck drew the lucky slip, but Imme
diately passed It to Judge Fee, who
had been his choice for messenger.
Judge Fee received the largest vote
ever cast for an elector In Oregon
and It is a high compliment that he
wus selected to be the messenger
from this state. He will leave In a
few days for the national capital.
SENDS HIS BROTHER TO JAIL.
ChftTged With Obtaining 18 by False
Pretenses.
Gus Strumbaugh, because he re
fused to pay for $3 worth of goods
obtained by his brother, Leonard
Strumbaugh, on the grounds that the
articles were obtained through a forg
ed order, has caused the latter to be
confined in the county Jail on a
charge of obtaining goods by false
pretenses. Gus Strumbaugh Is al
leged to have said that the peniten
tiary was the best place for his
brother.
The alleged crime was committed
last August. Leonard Strumbaugh
came to R. Alexander's department
store and presenting an order, pur
porting to be from his brother, ob
tained credit. When the bill wns
submitted to Gus Strumbaugh he de
clared the order whereby the goods
were obtained to be a forgery.
IS AN UNQUALIFIED SUCCESS.

. , tricts.
County Superintendent Frank K.
Welles Is highly gratified with the

fair. The malt this morning brought
the Information that in three country
districts more than 65 letters had
been mailed.
The Umatilla school literary soci
ety mailed 15 letters, the children
at Uklah sent away 30 letters, and
those at the Vincent school In the
Hudson Bay neighborhood, wrote 21.

INFAMOUS CASE OF DESERTION.
Woman With Five Children Lett Des
titute, One of the worst cases of depravity
that has recently come to light In this
section, wns brought to the notice of
a few charitable persons in this city
several days ago. Ji woman with five
little children living In a shanty near
S. J. Newsome's residence was found
to be In need of food, wearing apparel
and bed clothing.
According to the woman's own
story she left Lakevlew five weeks
ago wjth her children, traveling by
stage. Her husband, who promised
her that he would follow In a day or
two, or as soon as he had arranged
bualneas matters, seems to have dis
appeared completely, and now the
wife says that she does not expect
him at all. but that the fares which
he paid the stage company for she
and her little ones were perhaps the
lust contributions he will ever make
toward sustaining the family. She
does not ask for any financial assist
ance, but says that she Is strong and
can do washing, and In this way sup
port the little ones, whose sole care
