Seventy to the Fair.
Conductor Fred Waffle who came
In from Huntington this morning on
No. 1, carried 70 passengers en route
to the Lewis and Clark fair. Of this
number 0 were from Missouri river
points and 10 from scattering points
in the East. Those who passed down
the O. R. & N. today said that nearly
all their neighbors are coming to the
fair some time during the year, and
the prospects are that Portland will
receive the greatest rush of visitors
ever assembled In any American city
on a like occasion. Most of these
visitors are routed back by way of
California.

This morning W. J. Furnish, W. M.
Pierce and Ed Marshall left for Echo,

the land to be covered by the Irrigat
ing ditch to be taken out by the In
land Irrigation company.
Under the plans the company s
ditch will take water from the Uma
tilla river this side of Echo, and at
the same place as the Carnes-Lytle
ditch. It will then run In a north
westerly direction and water lands
owned by Mr. Furnish and others on
that aide, of the river.

Bentleys Interested.
J. D. and R. H. Bentley, brothers of
M. Bentley, of this place, are direc
tors of the bank of Oakdale, cai.,
which was forced to clOBe Its doors
vesterdav owlntr to the shortage of
the cashier, Louis Kahn, who at
tempted suicide. The bank doors
were closed to prevent a run being
made on the Institution. Both of the
Bentleys have been stockholders In
the bank for many years. It being a
very old bank, and one of them will
probably lose considerable money, as
a result of the cashier's shortage.
Buying Horses for Army.
Four men, three of whom were
army officers, were here yesterday for
the purpose of purchasing horses for
the service. They were T. R. Rivers,
captain of the fourth cavalry; R. R.
Brown, captain of the same regiment;
J. T. Scanlan. of the quartermaster's
department, and E. Y. Taylor, of Salt
Lake, a horse buyer. All of the party
left last evening for Union, and will
return to Pendleton tonight.
There is now no hope for the
branch experiment station at Union,
for the attorney general has ruled
that the plan proposed by the regents
to secure funds with which to main
tain the institution during the next
two years would be illegal.
Regent W. M. Pierce received a
copy of the decision last evening, the
same being forwarded to him by
President Weatherford, of the board
of regents. This morning Mr. Pierce
stated to the East Oregonian that
there Is now no way In which the
station can be continued during the
next two years, and that he will im
mediately call a meeting of the ex
ecutive committee to arrange for thej
sale of the stock and for the renting
of the land used by the station. The
herd of cattle on the station, In which
there Is some fine pure-bred stock,
will probably be sold at public auc
tion within a short time.
Great regret was expressed by Mr.
Pierce at the turn which affairs
have taken.
"It simply means," said he, "that
the station will have to be abandon
ed and that thousands of dollars
worth of experiments, mainly grasses.
will have to be thrown away. There
are three grasses in particular that
promise to be of untold value to East
ern Oregon, and they were propagat
ed entirely at the station. These are
the hybrid bunchgrass, the Oregon
brome and the Oregon evergreen. . As
these were originated at the station,
of course they cannot be secured in
the market, and unless .the plants
now at the station are preserved, the
valuable work will simply be wasted.
If there Is no other way, I am going
to try to save some of the grasses at
my own expense, If I can do so.
Emergency Scheme Falls.
The branch experiment station had
an appropriation of $15,000 In the
general appropriation bill, which has
been held up by the referendum pe
tition filed on the 18th of this month
Consequently, It can secure no money
from the state between now and the
next session of the legislature. No
money derived from the sale of pro
ducts of the farm can be used for the
maintenance of the station, because
at the recent session an act was
passed requiring all state Institutions
to turn all money so received Into
the state treasury. The decision of
the attorney general Just given Is up
on this point, and holds that the ex
periment station Is a state Institution,
and subject to that law.
As to the possibility of keeping the
station going during the next two
years by private aid, relying upon
the legislature to reimburse the par
ties for such amounts, Mr. Pierce 1b
dubious. According to him, such
procedure would be too great a risk
In view of the sentiment against the
Institution with which a large portion
of the public has become Imbued.
This sentiment, and also the feeling
against the normal schools, he re
gards as unjust and due to lack of
understanding of the real value of the
work done.

In the land. There is nothing

Sells Out in Echo..
Mrs. M. E. Gallagher, of Echo, has
sold her lease on the Arlington hotel
at that place, and has also sold her
real estate interests and will come to
Pendleton with her daughter, to re
side for a short time, after which she
will go to Portland to live perma
nently. She will Join the Umatilla

June 6.
This afternoon a session of circuit
court was held here, and three crimi
nals now in the county Jail were sen
tenced to terms In the penitentiary
by Judge Ellis, all of them having
pleaded guilty to the charges against
them.
Otto Hocklnsmlth was given an in
determinate sentence under the new
law, which went Into effect but a week
ago. Under this sentence he may be
confined In the penitentiary from two
to 20 years, at the option of the pris
on authorities and the governor. Two
years Is the minimum penalty for for
gery, and, should Hocklnsmlth's be
havlor be good, is what he will be
required to serve. Under the new
law the Indeterminate sentence shall
have as a minimum the minimum
term prescribed for the offence com
mitted.
John Rodgers, who slashed J. F.
Bradford with a razor In the city
jail not long ago, was given one year
in the penitentiary for assault with a
dangerous weapon, and Bradford,
who has been held In the county Jail
as a witness against Rodgers, was re
leased from custody today.
John Cauthorn, one of the robbers
of the Bee Hive store, was sentenced
to serve a term of two years in the
penitentiary. The indeterminate law
was not used in his case.
In the case of young Smith, (or
George Bonner, as the reform school
officers give his name) the matter Is
being held pending a letter from the
superintendent at Salem. It Is pos
sible that the youthful burglar may
be returned to the reform school, be
ing taken below at the same time
with the men sentenced today. Sher
iff Taylor is now at La Grande, and It
is likely the prisoners will not be tak
en to Salem until Monday.
Funeral of Miss Ankeny.
The funeral of Miss Charity An
keny, who died this week in Philadel
phia, will be held at Walla Walla on
Sunday at 1 p. m. A number of

by the defendant on August 8, of last
year, at which time a field of grain
195 acree, was burned In a fire start
ed by a spark from an engine run by
the railway company. The total
damage is given at $3798
the complaint, but of thl
amount $1546.37 was covered by in

quently, the suit against the railway
