Enjoying Pleasant Winter.
A letter received by the East Ore-
gonlan from F. M. Oliver, tells of the
pleasant winter being enjoye'd by
himself and wife In southern Califor
nia. They are now at Hollywood.
Mr. Oliver says that on March 2, the
thermometer registers 86 degrees In
the shade, but t hut the heat was not
oppressive.
River Falling Rapidly.
The cold weather which has pre
vailed during' the past two or three
nights has served to cause the water
In. the Umatilla river to fall more
rapidly than It has any time since the
crest of the high water reached this
city. The snow In the mounalns Is
still melting during the day but the
nights are cool enough to put a stop
to it.
Will Move to Medford.
Mrs. M. A. Rader returned Satur
day morning from Medford, where
she and Jier husband had been for sev
eral weeks. Mr. Rader remained a

mission and all their east and west
bound trains are being routed over
the O. R. & X. The employes of this
road have the situation well In hand,
however, and the congestion of trains
Is now Being handled without any confusion.
RAILROAD EMPLOYES MEET
SETBACK IX FIRST. ROUND
Baltimore, Mr. The two powerful
railroad labor organizations, the Or
der of Railway Conductors and the
Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen,
which have undertaken to obtain a
general Increase, of the wage scale
for all employes In those branches
of railway trainmen on the principal
lines in the eastern part of the Unit
ed States and Canada, have suffered
repulses at the very Inauguration of
their better pay campaign.
Three weeks of negotiations with
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad am
ong the first to be approached In the
matter, ended today, when the com
pany, through President Daniel Wil
lard, declined to accede to the de
mand of the organizations, the com
pany' position- being set forth In the
following official statement:
"The conferences with the repre
sentatives of the conductors and traln
mens organization and President Wil
lard of the Baltimore and Ohio rail
road held today In the endeavor to
reach a mutually satisfactory basis of
agreement on the question of wage In
crease, ended In a suspension of
further conferences until the brother
hood representatives have submitted
the matter as It now stands, to the
membership for instructions for pro
cedure to be taken. The company
could not accept the men's proposi
as originally made and the men's re
presentatives did not feel authorized
to accept the counter-proposition
made on the part of the company
without referring It to the men for
further advices.

men who have explored the Arctic
ocean, and not long ago she publish
ed a book entitled "The New North."
She has lectured In all the principal
cities of Canada and ' the United
States, her lectures being distin
guished by a wonderful use of slang
which would not discredit Mr. George
Ade himself.
Miss Cameron has arrived In Lon
don with two secretaries her nieces
and she has entered Into a contract
with Lord Northcllffe to write special
articles on Canada and American sub-.
Jects in the Daily Mail for four
months.
U. OP W. STUDENTS SEE BIG
COMET THROUGH TELESCOPE
EVANGELIST LED FORD SWAYS "
CROWDS AT BAPTIST CHURCH
(Contributed.)
Tile meetings at the Baptist church
yesterday were a great blessing.
Evangelist Ledford preached In the
morning on "Getting Stones Out of
the Way." and In the evening on "The
Steps In the Christian Life." In them
both he got down to business and
spoke mostly to the Christian people.
He set high standards and made every'
one feel what a big thing It Isfo be
a real servant and son of the most
high God. No thoughtless or indif
ferent person can come Into the
things of the Kingdom. We don't
drift into Jesus Christ, but he saves
us for a great purpose. He held the
large audiences intently and moved
them profoundly.
At the morning service the main
auditorium was filled and in the eve
ning all the available seats In the
whole church were taken and extra
seats filled. A number had to stand
through the service. In the three ser
vices of the day about a score of peo
ple signified their will to take Jesus
as their Savior. Converts have been
frequent at every service for most of
the lust week. Surely Qod Is show
ing His power in these meetings, and
the Interest Is growing. They will
continue through the week, each eve
ning at 7:30 and the morning meeting
nt 10 o'clock. Yesterday was the best
day so far but the general expecta
tion is that the week night meetings
will be even better than the Sunday
services. All are Invited to come.

v
University of Washington Seattle.
Halley's comet has been sighted
from the University observatory. Not
only Professors Morttz and Gould,
but members of the classes In the
subject have all had their glimpse of
the famous visitor through the big
tube.
"A strange impression seems to
have got abroad regarding the obser
vation of this comet," said Professor
J. E. Gould today.
"For several weeks It has been pos- I
sihle to see the so-called Halley's
comet from points In the northwest
with the aid of a two-Inch lens.
"It Is a mistake to believe It will
be visible but for a short time to res-
dents of this section. I look for some- 1
spectacular features the latter part
of May."
Professor Gould's announcement Is
the first authoritative word on this
subject of interest, to residents of this
community.
Scientists of northwestern states
seem to have entertained doubts as to
whether the comet would be risible
here. even though the earth were to
be twisted by Its tail.
For a period of nearly two months,
beginning with another SO days, It
will be in sight.
No credence Is given by Professor
Gould to the report that cyanogen gas
of sufficient quantity to destroy hu
man life exist In the comet's tall.
Indeed, he is of the opinion and de
clares every new observation but
strengthens his belief, that the com
et is by no means as brilliant as on
the occasion of its last visit 75 years
ago.
LONDON BARS "SALOME.'
Opera Dropped by Convent Garden on
Account of Censor.
London. D. Richard Strauss' opera
"Salome," which appeared in the pre
llminary announcements of the forth
coming opera season at Convent Gar
den, is not In the final list. The cause
of Its disappearance is that Its per
formance has been forbldaen by the
censor.
Dr. Strauss himself is greatly dtS'
appointed by the decision. He was
very anxious that "Salome" should be
produced In London, and he offered
to meet the censor In every possible
way and to eliminate any Biblical al
lusions that might be. In official eyes,
considered objectionable.
It was all to no purpose. The cen
sor wrote regretting that he was un
able to give his permission for the
performance. ' v

ANOTHER BIG PANTO
DUE FOR YEAR 1912
New York. If Roger W. Babson,
the well known economist, Is correct
in his surmises, another panic which
will engulf the entire country is due
in 1912. As that will be the year of
a presidential' election, . Mr. Bryan of
Nebraska will be afforded some first
class campaign arguments. Mr. Bab-
son's conclusions are based on ob
servations of the financial history of
the last century. About a quarter of
the present period of prosperity has
gone, he says, but the top of the up
ward has not yet been reached.
His figures show that the high point
of stock exchange prices usually comes
after about one third to one-half of
the prosperous years have been en
Joyed. Mr. Babson urged that any one who
was determined to play the market
and desired to do so as safely as pos
sible, should purchase on a generous
margin ten of the leading stocks.
When they were high he should sell
and put his money in the bank. When
stocks were low he could buy again.
