The first annual exhibition of the
Umatilla-Morrow County Poultry as
sociation will pass Into history at 12
o'clock tonight.
According to Secretary Dickinson o
the Walla Walla association nnd ac
cording to the representatives of the
poultry Journals who have lcen In !
attendance, Judge Elmer Dixon of
Oregon City and Judge Frank Breed
of College PUiee, It has been tho best
first show ever held In the northwest. I
Therefore while there Is a possibility '
that there will be a small deficit fi
nancially the .members of the associ
ation feel that they, ns well as tho
city of Pendleton and the counties of
Umatilla nnd Morrow, are to be con-
gratulated. i
While the receipts have not been
large enough so far to cover the ex- '.
penditures It was not due to luck of ;
Interest or support on the part of the !
citizens hut due to the great amount j
of expense Incident to the first show.
The attendance every dny nnd even-
lng has been all that the mnnngement I
had hoped for or could expect and I
from present appearances the attend- j
ance this afternoon and evening will
be the greatest of any day yet.
The orchestra program will com- j
mence this evening at 7:30 and will i
be over In time so that those who j
wish can stay for tho full program I
and then go to the opera house to
attend the home talent minstrel show.
As the poultry show orchestra Is to
furnish the music for the minstrels
there will be no danger of anyone
being late.
The drawing will take place Im
mediately at the close of the musical
program and tho prizes tonight are
the most valuable of any given away
yet. They will bo five In number,
consisting of a fine large cockerel and
four settings of -valuable eggs. The
total value of tho five prizes will be
$25.00. j
Lucky Family.
A peculiar Incidence of the show
thus far was the drawings of a set
ting of eggs each last evening by Mr.
and Mrs. Carl Wheeler. To make It
the more remarkable, Mrs. Wheeler
was lueky enough to hold the num
ber which drew ono of the cockerels
given away tho night before. She
drew the eggs lust evening on a ticket
which had been handed to her a few
L PHONE
TO ACCEPT
L. O. McLellan. Pendleton manager
for tho Pacific Telephone company
during tho past year, has resigned his
position in order to take a similar po
sition with tho same company at
Aberdeep, Wash. . He is to leave here
tomorrow or Monday. : Up to this
time no successor has been found for
Mr. McCluIlan and , temporarily the
commercial work at the local office
lylll be left In the hands of Miss I
minutes, before by a friend who
wanted to go home. . ,
The only condition attached to the
egg prizes by the donaters is that
the eggs must be used for hatching
purposes and not to satisfy hunger.
The eggs are worth from $2.60 to $5
per setting and the ones who are giv
ing them do not propose to furnish
those kind of eggs to eat.
The program by the orchestra to
night should prove more popular than
ever for the reason that Director
Carruth has announced that his or
ganization will play any piece they
have played during the week, in ad
dition to their regular program. If
anyone has any favorites they are re
quested to make their wishes known
to the director.

Paris, Jan. 29. Martial law was
proclaimed In Paris today. Authori
ties came to the conclusion that this Is
the only means of rigidly controlling
the situation. Hungry refugees of
the flooded districts Increased their
attacks on food shops thin afternoon
and in many instances openly defied
the police. Adding to the danger
that is apparent, is the announce
ment of engineers that the famous
subway under the Seine is in danger
of collapsing. Final estimates place
the property loss at two hundred
millions of dollars and a probability
of fifty millions more resulting from
the undermining of the city.

The authorities today are consid
ering a plan for the construction of
a great horseshoe shaped canal to
carry off the flood waters anil slime
that cover the Inundated sections of
Paris The canal will ho a perma
nent character and would serve as a
safeguard against future flood clan
gers. Following the official announce
ment by the authorities that the flood

people of Paris are rejoicing in a
frenzy of thanksgivinir. At noon the
riotous Seine had fallen three Inches
below Its highest point during the last
week and is still receding.
FIGHT 20 ROUNDS TO DRAW.
Cyclone Thompson and Tommy -McCarthy
Have Merc Battle.
San Francisco. Jan. 28. Cyclone
Johnny Thompson of Illinois and
Tommy McCarthy of San Francisco,
fouclit 20 furious rounds to a draw
tonieht. The fight was one of the
fastest lightweight battles fought on
the coast In years. Each man scored
a knockdown.
McCnrty landed 10 times to
Thompson's once, but the latter was
tho aggressor throughout which
prompted Referee Eddie Hanlon to
cni: the bout a draw.
McCarthy floored his man In the
f rsi round and Thompson dropped
the Cnliforniun In the fifth.
Thompson forced a terrific pace
from start, to finish. McCarthy qon
tcnt'nc himself with backing away,
all the while landing clean punches
to the Cyclone's head and body. The
California nearly won the battle in
the first round when he shot out his
left with terrific force and caught the
Illinois fighter on the Jaw. Thomp
son dropped like n log, the gong ap
parently saving him from defeat.
It was a case of continuous aggres
siveness against continuous clean
punches and Referee Hanlon decided
that a draw was the only logical ver
dict to be given.

the congressman's alleged connection
vith the "Green" group of coal claims

Glavis said further that he went
to see Attorney General Wickersham
to get )rlm to set aside the decision of
the a.Jstnnt secretary of interior de
partment on the Heburn law. This
decision, held that the Heyburn law
allowed the consolidation of certain
classes of coal land and would in

Kentzel, assistant engineer, and the
only survivor of the crew of the
steamer Czarina, retold the story to
day of the wrecking of that vessel off
Coos Bay on JanuaryT2, in which 30
lives were lost, at the investigation
that is bdng conducted by United
States Inspector Bolles and Bulger.
He stated that the utter futility of
the life saving crew to launch a boat
could be plainly seen with glasses
from the deck of the sinking collier.
His last conversation with Captain
Charles J. Duggan, said Kentzel, con
cerned a piece of chewing tobacco.
Kentzel, who was the only member
of the crew who could not swim, was
washed upon the beach unconscious
and was quickly dragged ashore by
watchers before a receding wave could
sweep him back.
Nothing new concerning the disas

ments and Is Followed by Watts for

Are Brief.
Cie Willi the Jury.
The fate of Claude Arnold
now rests with the jury that is
trying his case. Shortly after
3 o'clock this afternoon Judge
Bean finished, the charge to the
Jury and the 12 men retired to
agree upon a verdict.
i:
i
With the argument of counsel both
for the state and for the defense, the
Arnold murder trial Is drawing to a
close after holding the boards at the
court house for a full week. In point
of attendance it has been the biggest
drawing card in the entire history of
criminal trials for many years. Ths
crowd has filled the court room to
overflowing from the very first day
and even with the argument there
has been no diminishing in the inter
est. Te taking of testimony was con
cluded yesterday afternoon shortly af
ter court reconvened after the aoea
ndjournment. Mr. Phelps for ths
state, rested after introducing a few
witnesses to impeach the testimony
of the principal witnesses for the de
fense and then announced that he
rested. Attorneys for the defense
closed their case and the forensic dis
play opened up.
Assistant District Attorney Freder
ick steiwer opened for the state with
a demand for the conviction of ths
defendant. He was followed by At
torney Homer I. Watts for the de
fendant. Mr. Watts held the floor for
nearly two hours and was followed by
his associate in the defense. Will M.
Peterson. When tho hour for ad
journment arrived last evening, Mr.
Peterson was still speaking and re
sumed his argument this morning.
District Attorney Phelps made the
closing argument for the state and he
went over the entire case, pointing out
to the jury the testimony, circumstan
ces and detal'.s upon which the stats
stood for conviction. His argument
was lengthy, occupying nearly the en
tire forenoon and part of the after
noon, but it was a very logical pre
sentation of the string of circumstan
tial evidence upon which the state is
relying for a conviction.
At the conclusion of the arguments
the court instructed .the Jury. The
instructions were shorter than in most
murder cases for the reason that in
this case, there was no question of
self-defense or any other defense in
volved. The only question was guilty
or not guilty and the court instructed
the Jury on the law governing this.
There were no startling develop
ments or denodements In the case. At
toriuys for the defense often inter
rupted Mr. Phelps In his argument
to object to what he was saying or to
put In some side remark.
