STORES CLOSE AT
TWO NEXT TUESDAY
Hundreds of people have gathered
before the fishpond window of the
La Dow & Peterson hard ward store
today, viewing the exhibit of young
Albino salmon. They were presented
to the store by President C. K.
Cranston of the state board of fish
and game commissioners, who brought
them up with him this morning from
the state's central hatchery at Bon
neville. The technical name of the tiny
fish Is Oncorynchus Nerka, but they
are commonly known as the Blue
Back salmon which formerly swarmed
the Wallowa lake by the thousands
and were there known as Red Fish,
through the fact that they turned red
upon reaching their spawning
ground. The hatchery officials are
now feeding 9,000,000 baby Blue
Backs and Chinooks at the Bonneville
hatchery at the present time, but the
Albinos are very scarce.
There are exactly 27 of the pretty
little fish in the local store window
and they are now in the pond for
merly occupied by the big rainbow
trout. This fine specimen was plac
ed in the window last September. At
tha time he was but five Inches l
length and this morning when ho was
given his liberty in the Umatilla river
Just below the Lee street bridge he
measured a trifle more than 12 inch
es.
Incidentally, in connection with the
liberation of this fish, G. I. La Dow,
head of the firm of La Dow & Peter
son and president of the Umatilla
county fish and game commission, an
nounced that the store would present
a $10 rod to the man who catches
and brings in the trout. He was
marked in such a way that he can
easily be Identified, but the nature
of the marking is known only to the
prorietors of the store.

AT THE PICTURE SHOWS
Orpheum.
Pendleton's favorite picture the
ater. Strong program for Friday and
Saturday.
1. "A Priestess of Carthage." Gau
mont. A wonderful production laid In
the days when Carthage was at war
with Rome. The acting is forceful
and well balanced, the t'tular role
being sustained with fine discretion
and art by Madame Gravier of the
Theater de la Renaissance, Paris. In
every sense, costuming, acting, stag
ing and photography, this film can
not be surpassed.
2. "Unto Us a ChUd Is Born." Se
lig. This Is an Interesting, well acted
drama. It tells a heart story with
interest and pathos. The story is
clear and the actors perform their
parts with understanding.
3. "The Peace Offering." or "The
Absconding of Bridget." Vltagraph.
Howard Graham Is married to a
redheaded wife, which means she has
a very bad temper. Bridget, the
cook, who Is also redheaded, is not
immune from fits of anger, nor free
from being a subject of the spleen of
her mistress. Bridget feels that she
has endured Mrs. G.'s abuse long
enough and decided to take French
leave. On her way to the front door
she espies Mrs. Graham's fur coat.
She takes It, leaving her own old
raglan in Its place. Mrs. G. summons
the police sergeant,, who starts his
men on the track of the guilty per
son. The following morning Mrs.
Graham meets j Bridget. Threatened
with arrest, Bridget returns the coat
to Mrs. G., anjd. on her way home
she (Mrs. G.)"ls captured 'by the po
lice. She ' Is )released by her hus
band, who assures the police that she
Is not the guilty person,
4. "The Lily of the Tenements." Bi
ograph. A story of east side New
York, showing how a young man
saves a young girl's virtue and his

UorsvtriKler Kicks Sick Wife In Face
Then Murders Her.
Wayland. Mo. At St. Franclsville, a
village five miles north of here, Dave
Conn, a traywlliig horse trader, walked
Into his brother-in-law's house at 5
o'clock this morning, went to tho bed
where his sick wife was lying, told
her that he had come to kill her, and
then proceeded to carry his threat
Into execution. After he had fired
three bullets into his wife's breast,
from the effects of which the de
fenseless woman died almost Instant
ly, Conn turned tho pistol on him
self, pulled the trigger and fell a
corpse beside the body of his wife.
The weapon was a 32-calibre revolver.
It was one of the most cold-blooded
murders that has ever occurred In
Clark county, and has stirred the
community ns nothing else In a crlm
I Innl way has done within the memory
ol the oldest resident.
There is no doubt but that the
j double tragedy was premeditated,
i Conn was a worthless fellow and
j made life so miserable for Ms wife
that she was , obliged to leave him,
having mnile her home with her sister,
i Mrs. M-irvey Nye, at St. Franclsville,
j since Monday last. She had a suit
for divorce ponding at Keokuk, her
former home, and it Is stated that he
has Intimated to her tbnt nt the time
that she filed her application that she
would never live to see the day when
she would be legally separated from
him.
Tho Cosy.
Friday and Saturday.
"As Ye Sow." Rex. A story which
depicts the consequences of youthful
folly. No matter what methods of
prevention have been suggested,
nothing can be devised which will as
suage th sorrows and heartaches
which are the certain results of such
sin. It is unusual that a lawful wife
should do what this one is shown as
doing, but her act makes a fine end
ing to an extra fine picture. Exquis
itely colored film throughout.
"Ogallalah." Powers. An extraor
dinary Indian picture which Illustrates
tho Indian characteristics as they are:
commonly understood. The relentless
pursuit of the kidnaper by the In-1
dian, the long shot with his bow, and j
the final vengeance are accurate In
their delineation of Indian charac
ter, which Is savage and cruel as In
diana are by nature. Its strength
cannot be denied and it arouses the
keenest interest. Finely colored.
"Strategy." American. A Tim
that tells a tragic story leading to a
thrilling climax and ending in a sit
uation that is truly laughable and
funny. - iiWIJ
"The Fakir's New Servant." Gt.
Northern. An Interesting trick pic
ture showing a magician doing all
kinds of strange stunts, but when his
servant tries to do the same thing he
gets into enough trouble to keep ev
eryone laughing.
"Troubles of a Trip." Gt. Northern.
A lively comedy, showing the efforts
of a wife to prevent her spouse hav
ing as good a time as he expected.
