Work on Wallowa Branch.
A work train with 65 men leaves at
4 o'clock this morning for the district
below Elgin, says the La Grande
Star. They are In reality a part of
the outfit which will complete the
Wallowa extension of the Elgin
branch. For the next week or two
they will be at work finishing up the
roadbed and track between Elgin and
the Looking Glass.
This much In the way of better
ment of the track already laid will
be done while the bridge over tne
Grande Ronde Is being finished.
When this structure Is In shape to let
the construction trains across the
steel rails the Iron steed will proceed
onward toward Wallowa.
A part of the bridge crew has been
at work for the past week at the
Cabin creek bridge, between Elgin
and the Looking Glass. The bridge
at this point was taken out by the
high water In April, and only a tem
orary structure was put In for the
purpose of bringing up the sawlogs
for the Palmer mill.
The class of work now being done
Is such as will permit the heaviest en
gines and equipment to be run over
the Wallowa branch. The crew that
leaves this morning will do some ex
tensive ballasting and the road will
be put In first-class condition as they
go along so that when completed for
the laying of the track It will be ready
In short order to turn over to the

which will take place Wednesday.
The party will leave the association

Up to a late hour today 74 had

retary Patterson. This will be a "See

In order that they may have a better
Idea of the fine country surrounding
them. All that could do so have
furnished their own conveyance and
rigs will be furnished by the Business
Men's association for others. The
trip will include a drive to Dutch
flat from where the .whole county
and that of Klickitat with the snow
peaks in the background may be seen.
Then Pleasant Ridge and other places
ill be visited. Lunches will be taken
and enjoyed In some delightful spot
beside a purling stream. Orchards
will be visited and the party will re

Cougar Lurks Near Town.
It has been said by many people
living east of town that a cougar has
been roaming around In the Slide
creek and Pass creek country, says
the Long Creek Ranger. It Is be
lieved that this animal has been in
that section for several years. Wil
liam Chapman and Stephen Harer
have lost sheep by an animal for some
time but they were not satisfied in
their minds as to the animal. Two
years ago Mrs. Nellie Woodall had a
few head of pet lambs. Each day
one of these pets would come up
missing. Since that time different
people In that section have heard or
seen this wandering animal. Mrs.
Woodall says she has heard the
screams of the lonely animal, but dla
not know where the noise was com
ing from. There is no mistake but
what this mysterious creature Is noth
ing more than a large cougar. Curk
Murr is suld to have seen this sneak
ing animal a few hundred yards below
Mrs. Woodall's home one day last
week.
Beet Crop Looks Good.
Beet thinning for this year has been
completed, says the La Grande Ob
server. Field Manager Sebbelov, by
experimenting with white labor and
taking more stringent methods with
the Japanese employes, has rushed
this yearly tack with better results
than heretofore. The 2300 acres of
beets cultivated by the Amalgamated
Sugar company Is now on the second
lap of Its growth. Thinning Is always
a cumbersome duty at the best but by
systematizing matters this year a lit
tle fore with Jap contractors, the
work has been done better' and more
quickly. Stringent contracts backed
by heavy bonds have insured good
results from the Japanese.
The beet crop, especially about La
Grande, Is looking fine, and the com
pany looks for a duplication of last
year's crop. The cold weather re
tarded rapid growth slightly, but since
the thermometer has shot up, the
sugar beets have done likewise. There
Is every reason to believe that the
beet crop will exceed all records of the
past the same as the cherry crop
gives evidence of doing.

There Is Heap of Solace In Being
Able to Depend Upon s WeH-Ean
ed Reputation.
For months Pendleton readers have
seen the constant expression of praise
tor Doan's Kidney Pills, and read
about the good work they have done
In this locality. Not another remedy
ever produced such convincing proof
of merit. .
Mrs. H. Swaggert, living at 811
Garden street, Pendleton, Ore., says:
"Both my husband and myself have
used Doan's Kidney Pills with the
most gratifying results. Mr. Swag
gert was troubled severely with his
back and kidneys for a long time and
never received any relief until Doan's
Kidney Pills were brought to his at
tention and he procured a box at the
Pendleton Drug Co. They gave him
great relief and he thinks very high
ly of them. I also used Doan's Kid
ney Pills and found that It anly re
quired a few doses to remove the
lameness and pain caused from dis
ordered kidneys. I really believe that
kidney trouble would be less prev
alent if more sufferers knew of
Doan's Kidney Pills." (From state
ment given In 1906.)
Tested and Proven.
Mrs. Swaggert was again interview
ed on November 18, 1907, and said:
"We still continue to use Doan's Kid
ney Pills and find them Just as ef
fective as when they first came to
our notice. We keep them In the
house at all times and really think
we could not get along without
them."

BRIXG BACK RUNAWAY UTES.
Govcernment Will Return Marauding
Band to Utah.
Arrangements have been practically
completed by the war and Indian de
partments to send the runaway Uto
Indians back to their reservation In
Utah, says an Omaha dispatch. This
Is the bunch of Indians that made
the sensational tramp across the
country from their reservation Into
Wyoming and the Powder river coun
try a year or more ago. .
The party, several hundred In num
ber, was headed off on Powder river
by the Tenth and Sixth United States
cavalry and were taken to Fort
Meade and kept on the military res
ervation for the remainder of the
winter and then moved up to the
Cheyenne river agency of the Chey
ennes at Thunder Buttes, S. D.
Here they threatened to break away
on a raiding expedition because of
the lack of supplies and for the fur
ther reason that they were required
to send their papooses to school at
the Indian school at the Cheyenne
agency, so.me 80 or more miles east
of Thunder Buttes.
The Second United States cavalry
was sent to the agency and Thunder
Buttes to hold the. Indians in check.
Matters were finally compromised and
the children were sent to school and
a large number of the Indian men
given employment at railroad
work at Rapid City. The greater por
tion of the troops were sent back to
Fort Des Moines.
One company remained at Thunder
Buttes to watch the remainder of the
Indians left there in camp. A part of
this company will escort the Indians
back to their reservation In Utah.
The trip will be made by marching
and will occupy two or three weeks.
