It seems that the Greek under ar rest has been In this country for some time and Is able to handle the En glish language. He has, therefore, been employed by h'.s fellow country men in the vicinity of Milton to tran sact their business for them. Some time ago one of these men enlisted his services In an effort to bring a couple, of he first man's cousins over from the old country. To do this the $180 necessary to pay for the'.r passage was deposited in Milton. But when the agents of the railroad company undertook to secure passage for the two men at the other end of the Journey, they found the two cousins had been sent to pris on for five years and could not come. Negotiations were then entered Into to secure a refund of the money de posited for their tickets. As the Greek who could speak English had made the original ar rangement he was again employed to attended to the detail of getting the money back. In this he was success ful, but instead of turning the money over to the friend to whom it be longed, he put It in his own pocket and, left for Walla Walla. His indictment and arrest followed.

Sunny Southern Alberta Nearly everyone knows about Al berta and Its general location, but comparatively few know the size and extent of the province. The Province of Alberta, Is about the size of Cali fornia, Oregon and Washington com bined, and must, therefore, have a variety of climates, owing to physical conditions existing in different part of the province. The southern part of the province lying directly east of tho Crows-nest pass, Is known as the Chinook belt, since the warm winds blowing across the warm Japan cur rentln the Pacific ocean, pass through the low-gap In the mountains at this point, and greatly temper the climate of the country Immediately surround ing, and east of the pass. In this par ticular part of the country the win ters are not severe as In other parts, the snow seldom falling to a greater depth than four to plx Inches, ana or dinary farm work can be carried on the greater part of the winter. The land In ft rich dark loam and Is very productive. The government reports show that of seventy-seven fanners who reported on their crops of 1908, only threes of that number raised loss than 40 bushels per acre, and many got 50 to 60 bushels per acre. These are government reports, and can be relied upon. This land can be bought today for $12.50 and $15.00 per acre. Land as fertile as this, and produc ing such crops. Is valued at $75.00 to $100.00 per acre In Umatilla county. Mr. 'J. W. Zimmerman who represents a land company, of Southern Alberta Is In Pendleton In the Interest of his company, and will be here for a few days. While In town he has made arrangements to work with R. E.

Secretary Balllnger of thp Interior department, has tele graphed the reclamation officials at Boise ordering Immediate work In field to begin by surveyors and engineers for the Malheur government Irriga tion project.

Tonight Will Witness the Last of the Parker Shows Held Here. Tonight will mark the close of Pendleton's six day fun festival pro vided by the C. W. Parker shows. Not withstanding the unfavorable weath-, er conditions that prevailed during ' the fore part of the week, the fun ; maker and the fun lover Joined hands In a true carnival spirit, and i never before in the history of the city has so much wholesome amuse-' ment been crowded into six days, w'th the objectionable features, which are so apt to characterize such events, so wholly absent; never before In the' history of the city has any amusement organization left behind It such a clean record for orderliness, good be havior and clear cut business meth ods. The gentlemen who direct the destinies of the Parker shows, and j the various departments, are all clean I cut, 1'keable fellows, who apparently ! regard their calling as a profession, and not a mere means of making a livelihood. They are a credit to any organization and It is not difficult- to understand why the Parker aggrega tion occupies such an exalted position In the profession oi entertainment, when Its policy and destiny is direct ed by men such as have appeared here In connection with It. It Is expected that an unusually large crowd will participate In tlu closing festivities, and special police connected with the Parker shows will co-operate with the local police and take more than ordinary precaution to prevent any rough tactics on the part of the over-boisterous carnlval-lsts.
