WhlUe Condemning Pictures They
Popose to Let Mayor and Council
Run the City.
Mayor Murphy will not be present
ed with a petition of remonstrance
against the exhibition of the Jeffries
Johnson moving pictures as intimated
in these columns yesterday, for, while
the Individual members of the W. C. T.
V. and other women's organizations
in the city are strong in their con
demnation of such attractions, as a
society they will take no action in the
matter but are willing to shift the re
sponsibility for such forms of amuse
ment upon the shoulders of the may
or and city council. No meeting of
the organizations have been held to
consider the matter and none will be
held, according to Mrs. G. W. Rugg,
president of the W. C. T. U. for there
is no disposition on the part of her
society to dictate to the cly authori
ties. The impression given yester
day, she says, to the effect that any
official action would be taken was
erroneous.
'The Womens Christian Temper
ance Union stands for the principles
embodied in the Golden Rulle," said
Mrs. S. A. Lowell, a prominent work
er In that organization this afternoon.
"For the same standard of purity for
men and women and that the highest
standard of each individual life should
be a safe guide for every other per
son to follow. Because of these prin
ciples It fought the re-establishment
of the saloon, with all its attendant
evils, but the majoriy of the voters
decided that the mayor and city coun
cil were the safest people with whom
to trust the morals of the city, and
now the responsibility is theirs. If
they desire to go back to the pioneer
days when the cowboy-roundup, saloon
and prizefights were the chief attrac
tions it is their privilege to do so,
There are other cities where these
conditions do" not exist and the fathers
and mothers who care for the future
of their children will not long re
main in Pendleton, if they are unfor
tunate enough to come here at all.
"Do the facts that there has been
an r.verage of four arrests a day for
drunkenness and disorderly conduct
eSnce1 the first of January and that the
city is so full of hoboes that burglar
ies are a common occurrence, add
anything to the reputation of Pendle
ton or teach any lessons? The W.
C. T. U. cannot force men to be de
cent. It seems a misfortune however,
that our city government or its own
motion has not seen fit to bar the prize
fight pictures, as have the progressive
cities of the country; even San Fran-
for an additional appropriation for
the branch asylum as it is realized
that the $200,000 already available
will not be sufficient for the purpose
.Dr. Steiner also dwelt upon the im
portance of moving slowly and or
having the plans worked out in de
tail before starting work. He pointed
out some of the blunders made in
tablishing and constructing the main
asylum at Salem and said he hoped
to avoid such here. He wants the
Eastern Oregon branch hospital to be
the best and most satisfactory insti
tution of its kind in the country.
Pendleton Will Help.
Replying to the remarks of the
members of the board President
Thompson, of the Commercial assort
ation, said he could pledge the board
that the people of Pendleton would
do their utmost towards assisting In
any way possible. He pointed out
that options upon the additional land
had been secured at low prices and
that the city could also be depended
upon to do its part with reference
to supplying water. He said the plans
for the new gravity system were al
ready on file with the state board.

Sues for Divorce.
Mrs. Effie L. Osborn of this city,

her husband, Richard Osborn, alleg
ing in her complain that in August,
1909 he latter deserted her and has
not since contributed to her support.

Grand Jury Still Sits.
The grand Jury is again in session
today but up until 3 o'clock has made
no further report. One of the charg
es it is investigating is that of assault
with a dangerous weapon made
against Charles Heater of Milton who
Wednesdav hit Marshal Anderson
over the head with a pair of pliers.
Residents of Milton who were sum
moned as witnesses In the case seem
to think that Heater, who is a very
peaceable man, was almost justified

employes and expects to eventually
employ 1000. William Beck, who Is
an old shoe manufacturer, controls
patents on welt which he is confident
will reduce the cost of shoe manufac
ture one-third, also owning patents
on the machinery, which will reduce
the cost materially, the company not
being obliged to pay a royalty for the
use of the machinery for the manu
facture of shoes. He has patents in
France, Germany, England and Can
ada and has had many dealers In these
countries seeking the handling of his
shoes. The present factory, with a
machinery equipment necessitating
the employment of fifty people, is a
two story building just northeast of
the city.
Spokane Is logically a shoe manu
facturing section. As one tannery Is
assured, the hides ready for the shoe
maker can be procured cheaper than
at any other point. Mr. Beck has long
been watching Spokane as a center
for the establishment of a shoe manu
facturing plant because of the natur
al production of hides.
DENTIST ON STAND
IN SCHENK MURDER TRIAL
Will Debate La Grande.
Principal A. C. Hampton or tne lo
cal high school today announced that
the first debate In which the local
team would engage in the contests for
the state championship had been ar
ranged for February 10 with the team
of La Grande high school. The ques
tion to be debated will be "Resolved,
that it is the function of the federal
government to conserve our natural
resources," of which question the lo
cal team will support the negative. The
debate will le held in this city.
Wheeling, W. Va., Jan. 13. Dr. O.
W. Burgatt, a dentist, was the first
witness In Mrs. Schenk's trial today.
He testified that the dark coloring on
Schenk's gums was due to the pecul
iar condition of Schenk's blood. Dr.
Hupp, for the state, had previously
testified that the lines might have
been from blood poisoning. Burgatt
treated Schenk In October. When
cross-examined Hupp aamited the line
might have resulted from some gum
disease.
Burgatt said he was convinced the
black lines on the gums were due to
derangement of Schenk's system
and not to any disease or the gums
themselves. On cross examination he
refused to say whether or not stomach
disorder might have caused them.

the University, who analyzed the
drinking water Mrs. Schenk Is said to
have opened and given to her hus
band, said he found arsenic, eight-
tenths of a grain to the pint.

the members of the state board of hor

the county fruit inspectors to inspect

Into the state from other states or
counties and deprived them of the

no matter how badly it might be In
fected.
No. 48 was vetoed because It was
defective Jn that it was without an en
acting clause, and house bill No. 65
was vetoed because two bills with the
same number. No. 65, and the same
language, were sent to the governor
by mistake, error of the enrolling
clerks. One of the bills was allowed
to take effect, and was flled-wlth the
secretary of state, and the other was
vetoed. It was a proposed act pro
viding a penalty for wearing the uni
form of the Oregon National Guard
without right or authority.
Enter "Not Guilty" Plea.
"Not guilty" was the plea entered
this mornlne bv the five men who

Helena, Mont., Jan. 13. In John
Davis, one of the two alleged postof
fice robbers in jail In Bozeman, the
authorities believe they have "Butch"
Cassidy, famous as an outlaw. Ac
cording to the statement of Glenn
Henderson, the fellow prisoner of Da

former bandit, who operated in Mon

DEEP WELL BEGINS
ACTING QUEERLY
On an orchard tract near Wenat-
chee. Wash., west of Spokane, there Is
a well 120 feet deep that has been
artine nueer the last few days. The
well was put down two years ago and
until recently displayed no peculiarl
ties. A member of the family ap
proached the well for water a few
days ago and was astonished to hear
a hissing noise from the depths of the
well. A closer investigation showed
that a blast of air was belching forth
through openings In the covering of
the well. Curiously led to further in
vestigation and a couple of the planks
covering the well were raised. It was
found that a warm current of air was
floating upward and as near as could
be ascertained it was coming from a
point Just below the surface of the
water, Jhe well kept belching wind
for a couple of hoUrS. About
o'clock In the evening a chlnook wind
started to blow, and the well Imme
diately quieted down. The same phe
nomena was repeated a few days later
and those who witnessed It are great
ly puzzled to know what connection
the current of air can have with the
Chinook.

KNIGHTS INSTALL NEW
LODGE AT IIEHMITSON
liOC'KSTEP ABOLISHED
IN WALLA WALLA PEN
Declaring it utterly useless and
worthless, a thing without good, C. S.
Reed, warden of the state peniten
tiary at Walla Walla, Wash., for
mally consigned the prison lock-step
to the oblivion from which It came,
Since the beginning the lock-step has
been the custom at the penitentiary.
When the prisoners came In to their
meals or marched out to them they
did so In lockstep. The lockstep,
stripes and other relics of a more bar
barous age are a thing of the past at
Walla Walla. "The lock-step and the
striped suits," continued Warden Reed
"have come down to us from the
past. Why or how they originated Is
now of little Interest. It suffices that
whatever may have been the reasons
which actuated their originators, they
do not hold good today. The lockstep
serves no purpose. It accomplishes no
good. It is a senseless custom which
has outlived its time. The striped
suit has not been seen here for some
time. The prisoners wear plain gray
clothes, with no distinguishing mark
but the prison, number."

The girls' 'basket ball team of the
Pendleton high school will commence
its season tomorrow night with a
game with Waltsburg high school In
Walsburg. While the team has had
no game yet by which to test Its met

a formidable scoring machine.
The first team will be composed of
Blanch Baddely and Gladys Hamley,
centers; Muriel Saling and Juanlta
Plersol, forwards; Grace Flnnell and
Ella Lazinka, guards. The substitutes
who will accompany the regular team

Wns Father of Norhoiirne Berkeley
and Formerly Lived In This Conn
ty.
Norbourne Berkeley of this city re
ceived a telegram yesterday from his
brother, Dr. W. N. Berkeley of Annap
olis. Md.. announcing the death of
their father. Colonel Norbourne Ber
keley. at Evergreen, Virginia.
Colonel Berkeley was one of four
brothers who armed and equipped the
8th Virginia regiment and fought
from first Manassas to Appomatox In
the civil war.
Col. N. Berkeley, who was with
Pickett's division at Gettysbury, was
bndly wounded In that battle and was
captured and taken to Chester hos
pital and thence to Johnson Island.
In 1886 Col. Berkeley came to Ore
gon to visit his son who was living
on the "Dixie - Ranch" In Camas
Prairie. The colonel was made Jus
tice of the peace in his precinct, and
still has many friends among the pi
oneer residents of Camas Prairie.
Col. Berkeley was born In 1828 and
would have bnflri 3 years old In
March.
edit would have been Impossible, as
the ford, the only crossing place, was
literally churned by bullets and a
man could not have lived to reach the
opposite side.
So far as is known, only one man
crossed the river to the American side.
He "was a press correspondent and he
did not do so until two hours after
the battle and then under cover of
darkness.
The lnsurrectos have a strong for
tified camp In the mountains and
more than 150 men under arms at
that point. They are well armed and
plentifully supplied with ammunition.
