MAKES TRIP AROUND
GLOBE Hi 40 YEARS
"Around the world la forty years."
That Is longer than the average globe
trotter takes to complete the circle,
but it is the duration of time which
will have elapsed-before Chas. Ham
mond, the popular boot black at the
Mark Patten barber shop, finishes his
first revolution. He left today at 1:30
via the Northern Pacific for Phila
delphia, from where he will take a
Red Star steamer for London, the
home of his birth, to which he bade
good-bye two score years ago. At
that time he sailed for Australia,
where he spent a number of years
among the gold seekers and kanga
roos, quitting that land to come to
America. He landed in San Fran
cisco, made his way to Portland and
from the Oregon metropolis drifted
up to Pendleton, twenty years ago.
Since that time he has been work
ing here most of the time, making
his daily bread by means of his brush
and rag. All of this time he has been
dreaming of the day when his surplus
earnings would enable him to pur
chase a ticket back to his old home,
the land of cabbies, thick fogs and
Hooligans. Yesterday the day arriv
ed, his ticket was bought, and the iron
horses of J. J. Hill are now speeding
him on the last lap of his Journey
around the world.
Hammond says he will return here
In about four months, as he thinks a
man of his years and occupation
would stand small show In a. city
where railroad engineers are forced
to strike for a dollar a day.

TAKES SHEEP DIP BATH.
Pendleton Traveling Man Victim of
Practical Joke Perpetratied by
Friends.
Friends of George Peck, the pop
ular traveling salesman for the Pa
cific Hardware & Steel company of
Portland and San Francisco, who
makes his home in this city, are en
Joying several big laughs at his ex
pense. The Joke is due to the fact
that though Peck makes his head
quarters in this city he is still pretty
much of a tenderfoot and unable to
distinguish between the bite of a bed
bug of the common variety and a
sheep tick.
According to the story being told,
Peck in company with Jack Converse
of the same company and Ed Morris,
who travels for the Winchester Arms
company, attended a shooting match
In the city of Wallowa, early this
week. The next day Peck complain
ed of having been bitten In about a
million places, principally on his
back, by "something." His two
friends immediately suggested sheep
ticks and upon reaching Baker City
insisted on making an examination.
This was granted and the verdict of
"sheep ticks" was Immediately pro
nounced. Not only was the verdict rendered
but the patient was informed that the
only thing that would save him
would be a sheep dip bath. Not wait
ing for permission, the two conspir
ators hnstened to a drug store and
secured a large size bottle of sheep
dip. Peck demurred to further pro
cedure when he accldently procured
a whiff of the medicine, but his re
monstrances were of no avail. In a
twinkling Morris and Converse had
finished disrobing their victim and
had. him painted a dark brown hue
from head to foot. This completed,
they plunged him Into the bnth tub
filled with a strong solution of the
dope which is guaranteed to cure
scabbles and nil other skin diseases
which flocks of sheep are heir to.
Needless to s;iy the cure was com
plete and the Pendleton traveling
man was Immediately made an en
thusiastic convert to the efficiency
of a certain brand of sheep dip
which he Is now cnrrylng around In
his grip for future emergencies. His
relief from the pain of the bites was
so great that . he did not mind con
verting himself Into a walking per
fumery. Peck arrived from Baker yesterday.
So did Morris. The latter, however,
took the first train for Potland.

conn GIVES WEST
GREATEST 6VATIBN
Condon, Ore., Oct. 21. An ovation
was given Oswald West, anti-assembly
and statement No. 1 candidate for j
governor, by the citizens of Condon
last night. It remained for the home J
of his opponent to give him both
hands In the glad welcome and give
him the most enthusiastic meeting
and the biggest audience of his east
ern Oregon trip.
The Condon band met West as his
train pulled Into the station and
greeted him with stirring music. The
depot platform was crowded with
people, who shouted themselves hoarse
for "Oswald West, our next gover
nor," as he alighted from the car.
Surrounded by the people, all ea
ger to shake his hand. West was given
an impromptu reception before he
was driven to the home of Mayor
Wood, where dinner had been prepar
ed for him, and as he drove away the
crowd sped him with cheers and
marched, shouting, from the depot to
the town.
During his address last night West
faced an audience that packed the
big courtroom from rail to back wall
and left a throng in the hallway. As
he spoke he was given round after
round of enthusiastic applause. West
Iri his discussion gave reasons why
the people of Condon and of Oregon
should vote for him and not for Bow
erman. He showed that It was their
duty as patriotic citizens, since Bow
erman was the candidate of the cor
porations and the nominee of the as
sembly of the corporation.
West expressed gratitude at the re
ception tendered him by the people of
Condon and Gilliam county and said
he did not flatter himself that it was
due to himself but was rather the
customary greeting extended no the
stranger who enters the city's gates.
DEFADLT TAKEN 10
FAMOUS TAX CASE
PAPERS NEVER SERVED
ON DISTRICT ATTORNEY
Default In Case of Building & Loan
Association vs. Umatilla County
Caused by Mistake May be Open
ed Up.
A default was taken this morning
In the famous tax case of the Pendle
ton Building & Loan association et
al against the County of Umatilla.
The default, however, was due to the
fact that through some mistake the
District Attorney had not been noti
fied that the case was to come up for
a hearing this morning. When in
formed of the action taken the Dist
rict Attorney went before the court,
explained to Judge Bean that he had
not even seen the papers in the new
case, had not been notified that the
case was due for a hearing and there
fore moved that the default be open
ed up. It is believed that the motion
will be allowed and that the case will
yet come to trial or be settled later.
It Will be remembered that the
first case was filed by dissatisfied lo
cal tax payers against the county more
than a year ago. It was charged that
the assessor had discriminated against
city property holders in favor of the
owners of farm land and that the as
sessment was void for the reason that
the county board of equalization had
not been legally organized. After
many months the case came to trial
and the court held that while the as
sessment was void for the reason that
the board of equalization had not
been legally organized, the plaintiffs
had no standing in court for the rea
son that they had made no tender of
the amount which ihey admitted they
should pay to the county.
This decision was rendered several
weeks ago. About ten days ago a new
suit was filed in vMch the fraud
charges against the assessor were left
out and a tender of the amount of
money admitted to be due the county
was made. This left a difference In
dispute of about $1,000.
This new suit Is the one In which
the papers were not served on the
district attorney, though they were
served on the county clerk. Though
It seems probable that the amount of
the tender will be all that the county
ran collect on the old assessment. In
view of the ruling of the court In the
first case, it is possible that Assessor
Strain will not assent to a settlement
of the case on this basis but will In
sist on taking advantage of the op
portunity offered by the law to make
a new assessment.
If a new assessment Is made the
plaintiffs will have an opportunity to
go before the board of equalization
and ask for a reduction.

American Physician is Found
Guilty ot Killing His Wife
by London Jury.
Verdict Readied After Deliberation
of Only 30 Minutes Crippen Re
ceives Sentence Cooly But Pro
tests His Innocence Judge Give
Him no Hope of Escaping Gallows
Prisoner Relapses Into Stupor
Mile Leneve to be Tried Tuesday.
London, Oct. 22. Dr. Hawley Crip--pen,
stripped by the British law of
his technical defense and handicapped
by his missing wife whose body was
found in the basement of his home, .
was found guilty of murder this af
ternoon, and was sentenced to ha
hanged by Lord Chief Justice Alver
stone. His plausible detailed story
which told of the disappearance ot '
Mrs. Crippen failed to prevent th -Jury
from remaining out more than
30 minutes.
In his closing argument. Prosecu
tor Muir said that Crippen's admission
that the scar on the body was similar
to that on his wife was itself damag- -ing
enough to send him to the gal- -lows.
The prisoner's attempt to show
the body might be that of some ona -else
was too fantastic to be believed, .
he said. Lord Alverstone's Instruc
tions to the Jurors generally support
ed Muir's contentions.
Crippen rose briskly to receive his
sentence. As soon as this was pass
ed Lord Alverstone said: "I advice
you to entertain no hope of escaping
the gallows." "I still protest my in
nocence," said Crippen, and then re
lapsed into a stupor which remained
long after he returned to his cell.
The court told Crippen he had bet
ter make his peace with God, but tha
doctor still protested his innocence.
He probably will appeal and If not
successful will hang November 14 or
15.
Mile. Ethel Leneve will be brought
to trial Tuesday on the charge of be
ing an accessory in the crime.
Crippen fainted several times In
Jail and became so depressed that phy
sicians were called.
FISH'S BARBED FIN
PIERCES DIVER'S NECK
West Palm Beach, Fla. Death In
an almost unheard-of form awaited
Laurence S. Baker, an 11-year-old
Jacksonville lad, when he dived from
a boat while swimming in Lake
Worth.
A stinaree, a huge, flat-bodied
and greusome species of warm water
fish, was lurking Just under the
boat One of the barbed spine,
which this fish carries on its whip
like tail pierced the boy's neck, cut
ting Into the Jugular vein. He rose
to the surface, crying for help, and
bled to death within four minute -after
his swimming companions had
lifted him from the water.
Whether the fish attacked the boy
Is not known, but it is believed by
his companions that stingaree war
swimming past and that the force of
the boy's dive impaled him on the
fearful barb. The stlngaree's weapon
is poisonous.
September Favorable to Crops.
Washington, D. C. The Depart

and 0.4 per cent lower than the av
erage condition on October 1, (or at
time of harvest) of the past ten years.
The area under cultivation Is S.2 per
cent more than last year.
