KASPAR VAN DRAN DEAD. Wife of Former Pendleton Mnn Pois oned Accidentally. The Oregon Sunday Journal gives the following account of the death of Mrs. Kn.spar Van Dran, which occur red In Portland at 9:30 Saturday night: "Mrs. Kaspar Van Dran, wife of Kaspur Van Dran, who was shot and duugerously wounded by Joseph Young a short time ago, died from ac cidental poisoning at her home at 33 North Seventeenth street about 9:30 o'clock Inst night. Mrs. Van Dran and her sister, Miss Montelth, return ed from a walk and Mrs. Van Dran wont Into the pantry nnd took a bottle of ginger ale off tho Ice and emptied It Into two glasses. "She took one glass uud drank about one-third of tt when she no ticed that that tt had a peculiar tusrto and smell. Thinking tnnt It might contain some poisonous acid, she call ed to her sister not to touch tho other glass, then ran towards the kitchen to get some water. "She had taken only a few steps when she fell and died five minutes later. Miss Montelth had sufficient presence of mind to summon Dr. Wll llam Jones, but Mrs. Van Dran was then past recovery. A message was sent to Mr. Van Dran at his saloon at 430 Washington street, and when he arrived at his home and learned of the tragedy he swooned away. "Coroner Flnley removed the body to his undertaking rooms. Mr. Flnley took what remained of the ginger ale, emptied each glass Into separate bot tles and will have It analyzed by Dr. R. C. Yonne. Mr. Flnley, upon In quiry, learned that tho ale had boen taken to the house by Van Dran. He usually brought home two or three bottles every day. "Ho did not know It the bottle that carried death with it was one of a case he bought yesterday morning, or whether It had been In his saloon some time. Mr. Flnley said the bot- tlo, was either overcharged at the soda works and a poisonous acbl produced, or it might have been tampered with after It loft the works." Mac Montelth, the well known liquor dealer of Pendleton, Is a broth er of Mrs. Van Drnn and Immediately left for Portland on receiving the news of his sister's death. Matt Mon telth, another brother In San Fran cisco, also came up to Portland to at tend the funeral. "SHOW" INDIANS RETURNING. UnuttllloH Who Went to Mlrhiguii Are Pining for Tlielr Native I'niutlllu Hills Again. One by one the Umatilla Indians who went to Grund Rapids, Mich., lust June to Join a. wild west show ure returning to Umatilla as the home sickness drives them back. The price of a ticket Is perhaps the only barrier that prevents the entire 18 from com ing at once. Yesterday August Alexander, a full blood, who went with tho party, ar rived homo from Grand Rapids, and he says that most of the boys desire to return. Tho management of the show did not treat them right and for the first month did not pay them their wages, although they worked every day. Alexander tells Interesting stories of the exciting game of "chyuse," which Is played by men on horseback, on a track 300 yards In length. Each rider carries a bucket full of potatoes on a 12-foot polo, and the object of the gamo Is to see who can reach the goal with the most potatoes In his bucket with every other rider trying to knock his bucket off the pole. The game was played at the lake side, where a large summer resort park was running and where the In dians gave roping exhibitions, broncho busting exhibitions and played "chy use" all day long. He thinks Michigan Is a poor place for a Umatilla Indian and will not venture so far away from the reserva tion again unless ho has sufficient money with which to return with at any time. Wages are very low there and the farmers are suspicious of In dians and few of them could secure work on the farms although they had letters from various Umatilla reser vation farmers to the effect that they were responsible men and good work ers. QUIET SUNDAY IN PENDLETON. Just Outside of Pendleton the Quiet uilo Was Less Oppressive, Yesterday passed very quietly In Pendleton, at least as far as the city Itself was concerned. In compliance with the orders of the district attor ney, none of the saloons opened for business, and as a result there was a noticeable absence of groups of loafers In front of the various Main ctreet resorts. The cigar stores, ice cream parlors and other small stores were all open for business as ttsual, tut the larger mercantile houses did not keep open even during the fore noon, as Is their usual custom on Sundays. Just why this was done Is not known, as it is said there was no understanding to that effect among the merchants. Most of the excitement during the day, especially in the afternoon and evening, was In Klne's grove, where the Eagles held their picnic. During the day hundreds of people thronged the grove, many going to see what was going on. The various booths on the ground and especially the one where beer was sold, did a rushing business, and consequently consider able money was netted by the lodge. The quantity of beer used during the day was variously estimated at from 23 to 40 barrels, and the effect upon those In attendance was in accord ance. During the afternoon and eve ning the pavilion was used for danc ing purposes and was generally filled. MISS COHEN APPOINTED. Temiorarlly Fills the Position Vacated by Charles Robinson. In compliance with Instructions re ceived from the department, Majo.' J. J. McKoln has appointed Miss Cohen as stenographer for the office at the school, where the entire business of the reservation Is being conducted. The newly appointed clerk will tem porarily do the work which devolve! upon Clerk Robinson before the latter was suspended a few weeks ago. Although Inspector Valentino has been gone for over a week, noth ing has been received here coneernlis the action that will be taken regard ing affairs at the agency. Meanwhile rumors and suppositions concerning the probable outcome are rife. This morning it was reported that Mr. Rob inson had been permanently removed from his position, but Inquiry at the office at tho school failed to verify the report. MANY FARMERS HOLD. They Are Reluctant to Sell Wheat nt Oio Present Prices. In spite of the fact that many far mers were In town Saturday, compar atively little whent chnnged hands, most of the growers still refusing to sell for 60 cents. However, some wheat was purchased by all of the buyers, tho largest quantity reported being 136,000 bushels by A. L. Knight for the Interior Warehouse company. Much of this, according to Mr. Knight, was bought of farmers from the sec tion noth and west of hero, and who havo so far sold but little of their grain. Study Grand RoiRle Irrigation. Colonel R. C. Judson, Industrial agent of the O. R. & N., and A. P. Stover. Irrigation expert who has been In the Echo district for the past four months, left here for La, Grande yes terday morning to study Irrigation In the foothill district of Grand Ronde vnlley.

Hand drilling contests are of Inter est In so far as they show skill In us ing tools, and prove to some etent the physical strength bf the one who wields the hammer, the Mining World reminds us. Of course, a de fect In eyesight may quickly Incapaci tate a contestant, while a temporary aberration of mind would result dis astrously. Nervous men stand little show In this field of Bport for gain. To the brawny arm a drill contest is an excellent lubricant, and to the big chested miner It Is a tome. In de ciding who shall wear the ribbon of victory, . however. It Is essential to consider first, tho character of the rock to be drilled, and then the period of time In which a certai l depth has been reached. Recently single and double-handed drilling contests were held In four states, the time allowed being 15 minutes. The records were: Single-handed contest W. Brad shaw at Tonopah. Nev.. 25 1-8 Inches; F. Yokey at Boulder. Col., 24 Inches; J. Mingerottt at Eureka. Utah, 20 3-8 Inches; O. Dahlln at Prescott. Ariz., 15 1-2 Inches. Double-handed con test W. Bradshaw and W. R.

Evident ly the new mining district of Nevada holds the banner, while Utah comes second, and Colorado and Arizona fol low. All participants have done good work and are worthy of special men tion in this branch of mining athlet ics. Railroad Laborers Scarce. Ben Dill, of the firm of Dill Eros., returned yesterday from a trip to Rl parla where the firm Is supplying meat for the contractors engaged In the construction of the railroad from Rlparla to Lewlston. Mr. Dlil states the contractors now have a large amount of equipment and horses at Rlparla but on account of the scarci ty of labor It Is Impossible to carry on the work except In a small way. About 50 men are working and new men are arriving dally but on account of the extreme heat and the better wages being paid In the harvest fields, the men only remain In the camp a few days and then go to the surrounding farming country. Mr. Dill states the contractors believe by September 1, the labor will be more plentiful .and the camps can then be opened at num erous points along the line, i Mr. Dill states the low stage of wa ter will handicap the railroad con struction unless the steamer Mountain Gem Is able to navigate the stream during the entire season. The distrib ution of supplies and equipment for the contractors must necessarily be done by the water route, and utiles a boat service Is maintained the con struction work would necessarily be delayed. Lewlston Tribune. Remodeling Has Begun. This morning work was commenced upon the remodeling of the court house, and as a result the building Is in considerable confusion and will be for several weeks.

Walla Walla Inspector Found 1000 Pounds) on Kale in tlie City. Following up a warning sent out a few weeks ago that all Infected fruit would be confiscated, County Fruit Inspector Will Rltz this morning made the rounds of grocery and fruit stores and condemned over 1000 pounds of fruit affected with San Jose scale, says the Walla Walla States man. The fruit seized consisted mostly of apples, pears and crab ap ples. "In only a few instances did mer chants make any protest against my action in confiscating the fruit found affected with San Jose scale and even these when fully Informed of the necessity of destroying the stock took the matter In good part." Mr. Rita said this afternoon: "The fruit seiz ed will be burned together with the boxes It Is packed In. The law re garding affected fruit must be obey ed to the letter and I believe that hereafter merchants will scrutinize fruit offered for sale pretty close be fore buying It." Timber Fires In Union. Heavy timber fires have been rag ing on the head of Little creek, la the High Valley section, this week, and four sawmills have been In more or less danger therefrom. The fire started from a homesteader's claim, where fire was set out to make a clearing and got beyond control. Mill and timber men have been fighting fire this week, but It Is a hard propo sition. Fire Is reported also on Little Catherine creek. Union Republican. Dartmouth fnlvcr.lty. In a copy of the Portland Gazette rOoiisherl in 1R17 there Is nn allusion to "Dartmouth university." Dartmouth college was founded by a charter grant ed before ths Revolution, and tlie stufe of New Hampshire sought to take away the charter rights and use tho property as a part of tho new uni versity, which was chartered by the legislature. The point was raised that the legislature had no right to do this, and It was so decided , by the . United State 8tipr-uie court after a memo rable exposition of the case by Daniel Webster. The Gazette pokes fun at the university, which. It states, "has one student," who "may serve as a nest egg." A Blno-olnr Betrothal.
