OF
EASTERN OREGON WON
HIGH SCHOOL'S CLAIMS
ARE NOW UNDISPUTED
Undefeated Umatilla Athletic Club
Team Taken Into Camp Season
Was Closed With String of Victo
ries. By winning the game with the team
of the Umatilla social and Athletic
club last night, the Pendleton high
school team won the undisputed
championship of eastern Oregon, clos
ing the season with a string of un
broken victories. The score last
night at the end of the contest was
31 to IS but these figures do not in
dicate the fierceness with which the
gym battle was fought from the first
whistle to the last.
The Umatilla boys came here with
a splendid record back of them and
their exhibition last night supplies the
reason for it. They have a good
team, probably the best that has met
the local quintet In the city this sea
son, but like all other teams which
have played here, they could not fath
om the team work or maintain the
fast pace set by the snappy locals.
The boys from the railroad town were
heavy and for this reason the game
throughout was pretty rough and
several bad falls resulted.
Supremacy Admitted.
The vanquished team admits de
feat was administered by a cleverer
bunch of players, but thinks that on
a neutral floor the score would have
been much .closer. Arthur Means,
who played guard with the visitors
and who has Just recently returned
from the University of Oregon, stat
ed after the game that he has seen
all of the Willamette valley academic
teams in action this year and that
Pendleton is superior to any with the
possible exception of Albany, which
holds the western Oregon champion
ship. The game started with a rush and
before a minute had elapsed, Houser
had slipped down from his guard po
sition and dropped the ball in the
basket. Umatilla soon duplicated
this feat and during the greater part
of the half there was but one or two
points difference in the score. To
wards the latter part, however, Boy
len and Chapman got busy and when
the whistle blew the score ended 12
to 6.
Cliff Jordan, who has been sick,
went in at his old position at guard
In the second half and Houser sup
planted Fee at center. With the old
lineup, the team work of the tocal
boys began to show up and before
the final whistle blew, eight baskets
and two fouls had been scored while
the Umatlllans could only annex two

MARVELOUS ACHIEVEMENTS.
Broken Aeronautical Records Becom
ing Matter of Daily Routine.
Reports of further astounding
achievements in aeronautics are now
become nearly routine stories In the
record of the world's news. Abroad,
the general public has progressed to
terms of intimacy with the flyine ma
chine that are difficult as yet to ap-
preiate in America. In France there
was held recently a convention to
consider the codification of special
laws to govern the use of the air.
Some of the most prominent bar
risters of Europe were present at that
meeting and the possibilities of the
use of the aeroplane by criminals, its
use in time of war, and the need of
precise determination of claims In
civil suits in cases of trespass and
damage were discussed as present ana
every day occurrences.
The latest intrusion of the aero
plane comes from England. In the
regular service of the Church of Eng
land and in the Protestant Episcopal
Church of America, there are prayers
especially read in behalf of persons In
peril. One of these is for persons in
danger through travel by land or sea.
The heads of the Church of England
have now under consideration the au
visability of adding to this prayer thf
words, "and in the air."
This question has been placed un
officially before the Episcopal cler
of this country- It is argued that ac
cidents to aviators have now become
so frequent that this contingency
should receive regular recognition In
the prayers of the church.
MINE DISCOVERERS.
Scientific Information No Help, Says
Senator Hejburn of Idaho.
The way to find gold is not to take
aboard an assortment of scientific in
formation but to acquire a pick and
shovel, a hammer, a magnifying glass
and a pack mule and strike into the
hills. This bit of wisdom comes from
Senator Heyburn, of Idaho, who
halls from the Coeur d'Alene gold re
gion of his state and has long been
the attorney of big mining compan
ies. "No scientific study," says Hey
burn, "can aid a man in finding a
mine. .No geologist ever discovered
a mine that ever I heard of. There
Is not a mine of value in the United
States today that was ever discovered
by a geologist or by any person act
ing upon scientific principles. Our
mines have been discovered by a class
jf men, pioneers as a rule, who ex
ercised their own common sense and
the Judgment of the hour, who never
read a scientific work relating to the
subject. The Comstock mine was dis
covered by a poor, broken prospector,
who would probably have starved to
death before he got out of the coun
try had he not found the mine.
"The oil wells of Pennsylvania are
an excellent example of the utter fail
ure and Impracticability of leaving
this to the scientists. Of course it
was first discovered upon the sur
face of the river. The Indians used to
pick It up on their blankets and
wring the blankets out and sell it
for oil for medicinal purposes."
The bean crop of Korea Is reported
as remarkably good the past season,
the exports of the article to Japan up
to the end of Xovember having been
valued at J2.3S5.817. The total ex
ports for the year are expected to
reach at least 12,500,000.
Florida and California oranges
were exported last year to the extent
of 2,229 boxes, worth 12,445,659.

Let trumpets blare and torches
flare and the voices of the people be
raised in acclaim, for he Is come,
Grubbs, the prince of modern min
strelsy, the epoch-making entertainer
with headquarters In Chicago, but
with a dominion limited oniv bv the
confines of civilization. Through
long years he has devoted his ener
gies ad consecrated his life Itself to
the noble cause of making a multi
tude shake with mirth, for he la a
believer In the old adage which sars
that he who produces a laugh in the
system of one of earth's creatures Is
greater than he who conquers- an em
pire or forms a trust, and his fame
In this distinctive line has been grow
ing, swelling and broadening utntll
now it Is bounded on the north only
by the aurora borealls and the rec
ords of Dr. Cook, on the east by the
full glory of the rising sun, on the
south by the one remaining hone of
hardy explorers, on the west by In
finity, aoove by the great blue arch
or heaven and below by the shades
of the river Styx.
Thus comes he to Pendleton, the
city of golden wheat and still more
golden opportunity, attracted here by
the local order of Elks to assist them
In the making of a show which will
startle the natives from their dreams
of Elyslan bliss Into the reality of a
supernno earthly enjoyment. The
initial step was taken last night when
Grubbs, fresh from Billings. Mont,
wnerc ne scored a success that was
a revelation to the residents of tnat
town, met with a large number of
local betrousered talent and instruct
ed them In the first art of stirring
the seat of laughter in an audience.
The next meeting will be held tonight
and on the 18 and 17 of the month
a minstrel show such as has never
been staged by amateur or profession
al troupes In this city, will be dlsaed
up to the Pendleton lovers of things
enjoyable.
