EAST END GRANGES
FAVOR MACADAM ROAD
Construction of a macadam road
from Walla Walla to Free water was
the main theme of discussion at the
"picnic" of the FernJ-ile and IluCor.
Bay grange, held in Freewater yes
terday, says the Walla Walla Union.
The rain and w'.nd prevented the pic
nic being held out doors but the
crowd gathered in the Odd Fellows'
temple, and there held the meeting.
The Walla Walla-Freewater roa 1
was boosted by all who f-poke. and
the universal favor with which the
plan was received, makes it practi
cally certain that it will be the next
highway built by Umatilla and Wal
la Walla counties, after the compe-
tion of those already contracted f Jr.;
Oregon residents have a flan, pro
posed by Judge J. W. Maloney of
Pendleton, and County Commissioner
W. M. Cockburn of Umatilla county,
whereby the county will pay half the
labor and furnish the rock crusher,
residents benefited to pay the other
half of the work.
This plan was met with all favor,
and it was generally taken for grant
ed that if the road is built to the state
line, that Walla Walla county will fln
sh it.
H. A. Reynolds of Walla Walla, who
was a speaker, warmly favored the
construction of the road and believed
the most ffisible way would be
through College Place, thus utilizing
some two or three miles already built.
C. C. Rogers, another speaker, as
serted that 300 learns a day pass over
one of the three roads to Walla Wai
la from the Oregon towns. This was
by actual count, he said.
The necessity of the road was ad
mitted and its construction will, In
all probability, be made a matter of
Immediate action on both sides of the
state line.
Other topics discussed at the meet
ing were according to the program,
as follows, F. W. Nessley, presiding:
"Organization of Farmers." F. A.
Sikes.
"Benefits Derived from Farmers'
Unions," Alva Shumway.
"Taxation," C. P. Strain.
"State Grange." LecturerDartiell.
"What Can Be Done In Favor of
the Good Roads Proposition," J. W.
Maloney.
"Good Roads," II. M. Cockburn.
Following the formal program was
a bountiful dinner furnished by tiie
wives of the grangers.
Dltrlchsteln and Janet Ueeeher have
been presenting since last fall at the
Belasco theater. The play has the
honor of the longest metropolitan
run of the season.
Ralph Herz Is starred at the Knick
erbocker theater in "Doctor de
Luxe" the musical comedy by the au
thors of "Madame Sherry-" The fea
tures Include "The Harem Scnrem"
number, in which appear a pony bal
let with talcum powdered knees, and
song recitations by Mr. Herz.
Limerick of iAMig Ago.
There was a young girl from Slam
Who said to her lover, named Priam,
To kiss me, of course, you'll have to
use force,
And Lord knows you're stronger than
I am.

er frantically, but the car refused to
push the telegraph pole out of the
way. A young barrister not unknown
to fame In Omaha as a lady's man,
happened by and rushed to aid the
distressed motorists.
"Might I be of any service?" he
asked politely.
"Do you understand the mchanlsm
of an electric?" asked the most love
ly of the two damsels, blushing
slightly as she said "mechanism."
'T am sorry to say that I don't,"
replied Sir Launcelot, "but I might e
able to help. What seems to be the
matter?"
The loveliest damsel looked mildly
vexed at his stupidity and replied:
"It seems to have run Into this tele
graph polo and can't go any further."
"Have you tried reversing the pow
er " asked Sir Launcelot.
"Oh, we hadn't thought of that,"
said the loveliest damsel, and reversed
the power. The skittish electric back
ed swiftly away from the pole and
was turned squarely into the street.
"That's a clever man." said the
loveliest damsel to tho other.

CORK LEG LIFE PRESERVER.
Appendage of FlsJvrmnn Plant Him
When He Fall Hi Water.
Logansport. Ind. Harry Harris, a
Vandalia engineer, finds the use of a
cork leg a necessity In getting about
In the common walks of life, but the
artificial member of his anatomy is
new cherished by him as a life pre
server. Harry decided to go fishing
to Lake Maxtnkuckee and gathered
all his fishing paraphernalia together
little thinking that his store leg would
enter Into the emergency duty as a
"bobber." When the boat upset Har
ris' head went down like the sinker
on his line, and up came tho leg at
the other end. It was an easy task
for his companion to grasp the cork
leg and haul the dripping fisherman
into safety.
