Deeased was 46 years of age and has been living six miles south of here. He had no immediate relatives in Pendleton, but has a sister In North Yakima, and the arrangements here have been made by a nephew, James Anderson, of North Taklma. 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. INSPECT PITCH ROUTE. Water Will Be Taken From the River, , East of Echo. This morning W. J. Furnish, W. M. Pierce and Ed Marshall left for Echo, from which place they, will go over 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. NEW CHURCH AT ECHO. BaptlsM Organized With IS Members Last Nieht Ground for Church Donated. At an enthusiastic meeting held at Odd Fellows' hall at Echo last night. at which Rev. George T. Ellis, of Athena, and Rev. G. L. Hall, of this city, were the principal speakers. Cut ! Glass 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. Is the delight of every woman In the land.

Leading Druggists 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 county excursion to Portland on 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 friends of the family from this city will attend the funeral.

KEEPING IT UP. Emphatic Talk by Pendleton Citizens. Every day In the year some resi dent of Pendleton Is telling a friend or neighbor about experiences with Doan's Kidney Pills. No such em phatic endorsement was ever given for any modern medicine. Read what what this citizen says: 8. B. Baldwin, retired, of 709 Thompson street, Pendleton, Ore., says: "When I saw Doan's Kidney Pills advertised, I desired to try them and got a box at the Brock A McCo- mas Co. drug store. They did me a world of good. My kidneys had both ered me off and on for 35 years, al ways more severely after I had caught cold.
