Reverend Mother Agnes, general of
the order of St. Francis In the United
States, whose headquarters are In
Philadelphia, will arrive In Pendleton
during the latter part of February' to
visit St. Joseph's academy and St.
Anthony's hospital, of this city. She
leaves Philadelphia on February l'l
for a general tour of Inspection of th-J
K"b.ools and hospitals maintained by
the order" la the northwest, of which
the Pendleton hospital and St. Joseph's
academy are the chief Institutions.
Mother Stanislaus, who Is at the
head of the sisterhood of St. Francis
in the northwest, and who is directly
in charge of both the hospital and
academy in this city, is now making
preparations to greet the general of
the order In an appropriate manner.
Mohter Stanislaus has been in
charge of St. Joseph's academy since
It was established 20 years ago and
to her Indomitable courage and tire
less energy is largely due the highly
successful condition of both these Pen.
dleton Institutions as well as the other
schools and hospitals In her Jurlsdtc
tion.
At the beginning of the second term
of the school year at St. Joseph's acad
emy there are 160 students enrolled.
There are six rooms containing from
IS to "5 students including a!! b.'
grades from the primary- to a grade

room for the increasing paitronage.
Electricians are now at work wiring
the entire academy building for elec
trie lights and when this Is complete
the academy will be one of the most
complete and convenient boarding
school buildings In the northwest.
Course Is Very Thorough.
Aside from the regular grades

drawing, commercial law. an art
course and higher mathematics.
A new kiln has just been added to
the art department In which china
painting Is fired, or burned to give it
the required gloss and tints. This Is
an Important branch of the art de
partment and some excellent work is
done. The art department includes
china painting, oil painting, needle
work, pyropraphy, clay modeling anu
water color painting.
The text books used In St. Joseph's
academy are Identical with those used
In the public schools up to the eighth
grade, but above this grade other text
books are added, making It even more
diversified than the public school
course. In some respects,
Training School for Tenoliers.
In the novitiate or training school
for teachers and nurses are 10 novices
who are now In preparation for their
life work. Formerly It was neces
sary for novices to go to Philadelphia
for final preparation for the sister
hood, but two years ago a novitiate
was established at St. Joseph's acade
my and now the entire northwest is
supplied with teachers and nurses foi
the Franciscan istitutinns from Pen
dleton. This makes Pendleton the
headquarters of the entire sisterhood
In the northwest and gives the city a
prestige enjoyed by few other points
In this respect.
The novitiates receive special train
ing anart from the work of St.
Joseph's academy and enter their life

F. D. Phillips, of Auckland, New
Zealand, Is visiting In Pendleton for a
few days and is looking over this sec
tion of the country with a view of go
ing into the sheep . business. While
here he bus been the guest of W. ft.
Fmy, with whom he was acquainted
while the latter was In New Zealand.
.Mr. Phillips was born In New Zea
land Hiid has passed practically all of
his life on that progressive south sea
Island. However, he has traveled con
siderably, having been in China.
Japan, Australia and England, though
this is his first visit to the United
States. He has been engaged In the
sheep business considerably, and has
also been connected with a newspaper
In Auckland.
In speaking of the conditions on the
Island, he said that the farming and
stnckraislng Industries are run on a
co-operative basis, and the ranches
are known as stations. All of the
larger stations are provided with rail
road connections.
While the sheep industry Is Import
ant there, It is conducted differently
than In this country, as the land Is all
adapted to diversified products and
consequently the sheep are usually In
small bands. However, there are some
concerns running large bands and
using hundreds of thousands of acres.
After further investigating affairs
here, Mr. Phillips may go to Gilliam
and Wheeler counties for the purpose
of looking over the situation there.

the respective friends of the two men.
Many contend that Hayes was abusive
toward Mortimer and was the aggres
sor in the affair with the result that
the latter lost control of himself and
struck Hayes In a moment of passion.
The board was used as a brace with
whlh to bar a door In the saloon.
However, a different story Is told
by others, who maintain that Hayes Is
not a bad man, but that Mortimer has
a tendency In that direction. After
the fight yesterday Mortimer mounted
his horse and rode out of Echo. A
warrant was then sworn out for his
arrest and he was sought by several
men on horseback. Meanwhile the
case has not been taken up owing to
the uncertainty regarding Hayes' con
dition.
IX CHARGE OF SIGNALS.
Kumclu Is Central Station for Block
Signal System.
The Installation of the block signal
system on the Mountain division of
the O. R. & X. between La Grande
and Cayuse, a distance of 65 miles,
has given employment to three now
employes at Kamela and has made
that point the central power station
for the signal system.
The electric power station is located
at Kamela In charge of J. W. Dean
and two assistants, who have charge
of the line of signals, the electric bat
teries and the signal lights.
The electric batteries which oper
ate the automatic arms of the slgnuls
are charged at Kamela every two
weeks. A helper engine is sent over
the road every other day gathering
the batteries which are to be re
charged. Only a portion of the total
number of batteries are recharged at
one time, thus leaving a large pro
portion of fully charged batteries In
service all the time.
The lights on the signal arms burn
for 10 days, when the lamps are re'
filled and the wicks replaced and
trimmed. The lights ure produced by
a specially prepared grade of signal
oil, and the colored glass used fur the
signals Is a high grade reflecting glass
which throws a strong, steady light
which, although not larger than the
ordinary lamp light, can be seen by
trainmen for three miles on clear
nights.

At last the ownership of the Ward-
Richardson mule has been sett'.ei, and
apparently for all time. Shortly after
8 o'clock last night, after having been
out nearly six hours, the Jury In the
famous case returned a verdict in fa
vor of the plaintiff. Mr. Ward. It Is
understood that considerable difficulty
was had by the Jury In arriving at Its
decision, for though the predominance
of evidence was in favor of the plain
tiff it was hard to destlnguish the
rightful owner of the animal.
After having called upon the mule
and strived In vain to decide the ques
tion, the Jury came down town for
supper about 6 o'clock last evening.
One of the Jurors. John Hayes, Is the
father of George Hayes who w as hurt
at Echo yesterday, and as the Jurors
were coming up the street he was no
tified of the Injury to his son. Judge
Fills was then called and excused Mr.
Hiyes from further service, leaving
the decision to the remaining 11
Jurors. After a few more ballots, a
unanimous vote was cat for the plaintiff.

Accordingly the district attorney
was Interviewed this morning unl
asked to give his approval to the peti
