Made the Trip From Leuiston, Idaho, In the Time Mentioned, an Average of 5 Miles Per Hour Over Heavy Grades, Through Canyons and Over Execrable Trail The Best Time Ever Made by Automobile Between Lewiston and Pendleton. Wednesday evening a party consisting- of Mr. and Mrs. W. L. Thomp son and Mr. and Mrs. F. E. Judd. arrived here from Lewiston by auto, making the trip in 10 hours of actual running time. They made the trip In Mr. Thompson's White steamer, and left Lewiston at 7:45. They made the run from there to Dayton, 60 miles. In five hours and stopped for half an hour at Pomeroy, on the way. The above 60 miles Is the worst part f the road to Pendleton because of bad grades. The Alpowa grade, Just out of Lewiston, is 12 miles long, and also the big Meringo hill, be tween Pomeroy and Dayton Is a bad one, as there is a 1500-foot drop. In all two hours during the day were taken up with stops, and thus but 10 hours of actual running time was used. This Is said to be the fastest record ever made between Lewiston and this place, and Is less than half the time required for the trip by railroad, as 24 hours is the time taken for the latter run. The distance from here to Lewiston Is ap proximately 150 miles. SUIT FOR DIVORCE. Mrs. Parr Alleges Many and Serious Reasons Therefor.

No home was provided for her except with the father nd mother of tbe defendant, and she alleges that she was driven from that place by the mother and sister of the defendant, who told her that Frank was going to get another woman.

He Took tiro Wheat From the Hllls- dule Station Warehouse, But It Did Not Seem to Ho Proven That He Had Dime Anything of a Compro mising Nature Manager of the Warehou.se Was a Witness for the . State and May Have Keen Individ ually Itesponsihlc for tlie Wheat Being Taken. In the case of H. B. Kershaw, of Walla Walla", who was charged with taking grain from a warehouse without the consent of the owner, a verdict of not guilty was returned this forenoon, and the case was dis missed. On the convening of court this morning the attorneys in the ease completed their arguments, and after the Instructions had been given the Jury by Judge Ellis the 12 men re tired lor their verdict. They wire out but a comparatively short time, when they reached a verdict for the defendant. The specific charge against Ker shaw was that In 1898 he caused 12115 bushels of wheat belonging to G. A. Hartman to be shipped from a ware house at Hillsdale station without the consent of the owner. According to the complaint, Mr. Hartman, the pros ecutlng witness, did not learn that the wheat had, been taken until a year later. Thereupon the matter was brought to the attention of Mr. Ker shaw, and he is said to have prom ised to settle for thp amount. How ever, he failed to do this, and last Murch criminal proceedings were un dertaken against him by District At torney Phelps and while In this city Kershaw was served with a wurrant hy Constable J. M. Bentley. In the trial the shipping of the wheat was admitted, but It was held thnt A. B. McEuen, manager of the warehouse, was responsible Instead of Kershaw. During the trial McEwen was a witness for the state and testi fied that he had received Instructions from Kershaw to make the shipment. Shortly after the wheat was taken the company of which Kershaw was pres ident went Into bankruptcy. Colonel J. H. Ruley assisted Dis trict Attorney Phelps In the prosecu tion of the case, while Hulley & Low ell and John Sharpsteln, of Wnlla Walla, apeared for the defense. The Jury was as follows: J. R. Dickson, G. N'euman, William Howard, George Carmlchuel, H. H. Williams, F. M. Humphreys, Han Struve, V. Stroble, A. W. Grover, W. H. Wllmot. and K. A. Snyder. The following witnesses were examined during the trial: G. A. Hartman, B. E. Kennedy, A. B. Mc Ewen. C. P. Strain, T. D. Taylor, P. M. Wlnnen. H. B. Kershaw, H. J. Stillman and E. W. McComns.

Because of the official visit of Head Consul I. I. Bonk of the Woodmen of the World to eastern Oregon next month, the O. R. & N. company has granted a round trip rate of one and a third fare from all points tributary to Pendleton, If 50 people, will take tickets from any one point. Head Consul Bonk will be here on Saturday evening, November 4, at which time a public reception will bo tendered to him and a large class of candidates Initiated Into Pendleton camp of the Woodmen of the World.

INDIANS EARN $3000. About 200 Members or the Umatilla Tribe Yet Away From Home. It Is estimated that $3000 In cash will be brought home to the Umatilla reservation this fall by the members of the tribe who are now working in the. Grand Ronde valley beet fields and in the Yakima hop fields. While about 200 Indians are yet absent from the reservation, only about 75 to 100 are working, the re mainder being children and young fellows who do not "degrade" them selves by labor, but live with their relatives In idleness throughout the year. Fortunately this latter class Is diminishing year by year and nearly all the Indians who are able-bodied do some work In the course of the year. This will not be a favorable year for work In Grand Konde as the beei crop Is 50 per cent short and It will soon be harvested. Large quantities of salmon have been dried and put up In various ways by a party of Unmtlllas-which spent several months In tho vlclntly of Wbl- ser and Ontario. Several tons of wool was also gathered this season by the various parties of squaws in the mountains and sheep ranges of east ern Oregon and the members of the tribe who have been absent all sum mer will return home within the noxt two weeks heavily laden with tro phies of tho hunt and rewards of hon est toil. It Is wonderful to think that a few squaws will gather several tons of wool from carcasses, fences, bushes and trees In the course of a summer, but such Is the case. This wool Is washed, carded and dressed In excellent condition and made into mattresses and heavy quilts which are used by the members of the tribe or sold. CLUB MEMBERS BEING TRIED. Accused of Violating the Iah-uI Option liUW ut Frcewuter. This morning District Attorney .j. W. Phelps and Attorney J. P. Win ters left for Frucwater to appear In the trials of several parties for viola lions of the local option law. Five or six members of the Freewa ter "Soclul club" have been complain ed against for having sold liquor, evi dently much after the manner of the "club" at Corvallls. Among those 1m pllcoted at Freewaler is George Ire land, formerly a saloon keeper of that place, and who retained Mr. Win ters for the defense by 'phoning to him this morning. BlaliH'k Buys More Land. One of the most Important real estate deals that has been made In Walla Wulln county for a number of months was closed this afternoon, when the Blalock Bruit compuny, ac quired title to what Is known us the Drumheller homestead, located about one mile west of Walla Walla, says the Statesman. The tract consisted of nearly 100 acres and the price paid was $20,500. The lund is to be added to the large tract of land now owned by the Ulalnck Fruit company and will be used In connection with their extensive orchards and garden land. Rent Land for Broom Corn. F. G. Lucas of Athena, who is starting a broom factory at that place, will lease 200 acres of land some where In the county to seed to broom corn next season. Broom corn usu ully yields from a half to three-quar ters of a ton per acre, and the nverag- price in this county will be $90 per ton. He hopes to see others raise coin as he will use every pound pro duced In the county or adjoining counties In his factory- The soil and climate are well adapted to the pro duction of broom corn and he be lleves that in time Umatilla county will rival Kansas and Oklahoma us a broom corn center. Took the Lad to St. Joseph.
