MICH PA VIVO AT IIOISK
The City Is a Unit on All Propoxltlonri
of That Nature.
According to Frank Reeves, of Los
Angeles, who has been here today
while on his way to Boise, the city
council of the Idaho capital Is In
tending to do some extensive street
paving during the coming spring.
There are now IS blocks of asphalt
street, and It is proposed to pave SO
bocks more with bltulithlc material,
that being regarded as preferable to
asphalt
Mr. Reeves speaks in high praise
of the unity with which the people
of Boise work together In the matter
of public Improvements There is
little opposition there to street pav
ing, and as a result the city la fast
becoming one of the finest appearing
places in the west.

III
BE DISCONTINUED
Within a few days the passenger
train which ha been tn service be
tween this city and Walla Walla on
tho O. R. & N. branch line will be
definitely discontinued and tho mixed
train will uguln handle the passenger
business as formerly.
Kor the pust six months this regu
lar passenger train has served the
people of this city, Walla Walla and
Intervening points well, and the O. R.
& N. deserves credit for establishing
the service, which would Uavo been
continued Indefinitely had the busi
ness handled by It Justified the ex
pense. The train has been in sen-Ice during
the Lewis and Clark fair rush, and
through the holiday season and lius
been highly appreciated nnd. accord
ing to Robert Burns, general agent of
the O. R. & N. at Walla Walla, who
Is In the city today. It will be put In
service again next fall during the
grain rush to relieve the mixed train
and furnish the best possible servlco
during the busy season.
In speaking of the matter to the
East Oregonlan this afternoon, .Mr.
Burns said:
"It has been decided to discontinue
the extra passenger service between
l'endleton and Walla Wolla, for the
simple fact that the train has proved
to be a heavy loser. We were all In
hopes that It would at least pay Its
own way so that the service could bo
rontlnuod Indefinitely, but the losses
are too heavy for this.
"Mr. t'rnlg has acted In good faith
and has kept the service on really
longer than he would be Justlflod In
doing, figuring It out from a purely
dollar and cent standpoint. However,
ho has promised to re-establish the
service whenever the grain business
neta so heavy that we cannot give a
reasonable service to our passengers
This, I presume, would be next fall
again and would be continued until
tho end of the year with tho possible
exception of cutting out Sunday serv
ice. "1 think It Is generally understood
by your business men and patrons of
the road that Mr. Craig would bo only
too glad to keep this service on, but
umlor tho- circumstances could not
reasonably be expected to do so.
"I would also say that I know per
sonally that the people of Pendleton
and other towns along the line, real
ize the fact that the O. R. & N. thor
oughly appreciates their business and
that the company Is anxious to ad
vance their interests nnd Increase tho
business of both parties Interested.
"This is the policy of both our oper
ating and traftl departments, and you
will always find us ready to aslst In
advancing the business Interests of
any community through which our
road runs."

TAKE COAL HERE.
Scarcity of Wyoming Goal at Umatilla
Can ses Freight KnjrtneH to Goal at
Pendleton.
Because of a scarcity of Wyoming
coal at Umatilla the engines of the
mountain division of the O. R. & N.
are now taking cool In this city as
they go west.
The supply of coal at Umatilla is al
most entirely Roslyn coal and as the
mountain engines are not equipped to
use it. they must b supplies here.
The engines on the Washington and
The Dalles divisions burn the Roslyn
coal as well as the Wyoming cool and
Umatilla will hereafter be supplied
with the Washington product until the
shortage Is relieved.

Banquet to Ministers!.
Thirty people enjoyed a banquet to
the Presbyterian ministers of this city
and vicinity yesterday at tho church
parlors In this city. The following
ministers and their families and a few
intimate friends made up the party:
Rev. B. F. Harper of Milton, Rev. J.
M. Corneli8on it the Presbyterian
mission on the Umatilla reservation,
Rev. Robert Dlven, Umatilla county
missionary, Rev. Levi Johnson, Sun
day school missionary for Umatilla
county; Rev. W. H. Bleakney. princi
pal of Pendleton academy, and Rev.
W. L. Van Nuys, pastor of the Presby
terian church of Pendleton.
Bob Fitsslmmona will resist his
wife's suit for a divorce, and has be
gun action to recover 115,000 worth
of jewels, which he says belong ex
clusively to the children. .
BoIIokw tho Government and WaU
Users Will Asreo. .
"I have no doubt whatever but that
a satisfactory understanding will be
reached between the government and
those owning lands under the Bast
Umatilla project," said J. F. Mc
Naught today.
When the recent order was given by
Secretary Hitchcock setting aside $1,
000,000 for the East Umatilla project
the same was done on condition that
the Maxwell company sell off all of
Its land Instead of retaining 300
acres, which It was to do under the
terms reached with the reclamation
officials. However, this condition the
company has refused to accept, ac
cording to Mr. McNaught, unless the
government grants certain conditions
for men who have taken lands under
the Maxwell company's ditch. But
this he believes the secretary will al
low when he fully understands the
subject, or else he will consent to al
low them to retain. 300 acres.
At present the affairs of the Uma
tilla Water Users'- association are
awaiting Secretary .Hitchcock's ap
proval of the rules drawn up for the
regulation of the corporation. These
were drawn up some time ago by a
committee of which Mr. McNaught
was chairman, and a few days ago
they were revised somewhat at the
suggestion of Attorneys Holgate and
Williamson.
As to the sale of lands under the
project. Mr. McNaught is of the Im
pression that companies and Individ
uals owning land under the project
must tell It off, excepting 140 acres,
within 18 months after the govern
ment opens Its own land to entry. As
to the prices for which the land will
sell. Mr. McNaught predicts that in
cluding the government cost of about
160 for reclamation, the land will go
from $100 per acre up. At these
prices present land owners would de
rive from 140 per acre up for their
arid land.
on the subject Evidently these have
weight wltb Mr. Goey, and It remains
to be seen whether or not he can per
suade Mrs. Goey to change her con
victions on the subject.

Columbia College Dormitory Is No

ENGLISH SPITZ DOO FOUND.
Will Ho llrturnod to the Owner at
Wallace, Idaho.
A clever pick-up was made by Mar
shal Cnffman this morning. Not of a
desperate criminal, but of a little,
white English Spitz dog. The owner
of tho animal Is Jesse Shaw, formerly
of this place,' hut aow living at Wal
lace. Idaho. When In this city some
time ago the dog became lost, and Mr.
Shaw returned home without It. The
dog hail been the friend and com
panion of a little girl at Wallace, and
when she lost her pet she was filled
with grief. So much so that Mr.
Shav was Induced to write Marshal
Cnffman asking him to Institute a
search for the dog. This tho officer
did. nnd with success.
Today the dog has been kept at the
city recorder's office, and this ovc
lilng will be shipped out on the 5:30
passenger train for -Wallace, where
an anxious little girl Is awaiting Its
arrival.
George B. Onrtrlyou I todies a Story of
tho White Hon hc.
George B. , Cortelyou, postmaster
general, tells the following story of a
private Christmas dinner at the White
House: '
The Christmas which stands out
most prominently In my recollection
Is one associated with tho late
President McKlnley. We were In
vited to dine at the White House
Mrs. Cortelyou and myself; the other
guests were Dr. and Mrs. Rlxey, Gen
eral H. C. Corbln, Colonel and Mrs.
lilngham and Mrs. lielstand, wife of
Colonel Helstand.
Mrs. McKlnley sat opposite to the
president, and It was Just a little fam
ily party. I remember there was a
big 30-pound turkey, no doubt one
from the Vose farm, and President
McKlry carved H JUrnaelf. '
It all Impressed me as a typical do
mestic scene, so much like others
happening In hundreds of thousands
of American homes, all over the land.
I can see him now as If It were yes
terday. The big brown turkey loom
ing up and the president's kindly,
genial face as he rose before Inserting
the knife, and mado a few informal
remarks expressing his happiness and
gratitude that the Christmas season
had brought so much prosperity to
the nation, and so many evidences of
good will from his many personal
friends.

Vng Goey, the popular local Chi
nese leader and merchant, desires to
become an American In attire, and
he is said to be having the time of
his life trying to induce his wife to
consent to the plan. Yesterday a $25

ing to American style, but that his

Annual Hunt Abandoned.
For five years Prof. E. B. Conklin,
former superintendent of city schools
of Pendleton and a number of high
school buys of the Pendeton schools
have enjoyed an annual hunt during
holiday vacation. This year it will
be impossible for Professor Conklin
to come down from his home at On
tario and consequently the formal
hunt and camping expedition to Echo
and Umatilla will not be observed.
Will Wyrlck, who has always enjoyed
the trip, this morning received a let
ter' from Professor Conklin saying he
could not come and so the plan to
have the regular hunt on the Uroa
tllla river will he abandoned.
