livery. Xo wheat has yet been sold
and there seems to be a disposition
on the part of the buyers to hold off
until the season is more advanced.
According to H. H. Cohen, market
editor for the Oregon Journal, who
returned to the city this afternoon
following a close inspection of the
Adams, Athena and Weston country,
there is considerable held over wheat
in that region upon which the grow
ers cannot get bids at this time. .
Outlook Is Great.
"Y'ou people have not pictured con
ditions good enough with reference
to the crop outlook in the Athena
country," declares Mr. Cohen. "The
conditions near Athena and through
out that section are better than I
have seen at any time anywhere. The
wheat is simply looking great and
there is going to be abumper yield."
"On the C. A. Barrett place on
Pine creek threshing will commence
Monday in a 500-acre field and there
will be a yield of SO bushels per acre
where last year the yield went only
25 bushels. It is bluestem wheat."
Tliief Escapes in Balloon.
sayre, Okla, A pickpocket, closely
pursued by the town marshal, leaped
into a basket balloon near here today
just as the air craft was leaving the
ground, and sailed away to safety. The
balloon with George Harvey, aero
naut, in the basket was just leaving
the earth when the marshal discov
ered the pickpocket at work. The
marshal attempted to catch the thief
and tha pursued man leaped into the
basket as- it cleared the earth. He re
used to heed the marshal's warning
cry of "stop thief." At a height of
several hundred feet the thief drew a
revolver and wurned Harvey not to I
release the rip cord of the balloon
until he was ordered to do so. Af-:
ter the pair had traveled fifty miles j
me unwelcome passenger gave tne
word and the balloon was lowered.
Ten feet from the ground the thief
leaped from the basket and ran.
Harvey landed several hundred yards
from the spot and by that time the
thief had made good his escape.

ing their treasure. The flames soon
spread and the two men were in the
act of beating a retreat when Buhrer
happened along the track and notic
ed the blaze. Buhrer grabbed the
hat off one of the hoboes and used it

MAKE GOOD SHOWING
Umatilla county teachers seem to
reach a higher standard of efficiency
than most of tho other counties over
the state according to a letter received
at this office from Salem and Prof.
H. M. Gunn of Hermiston seems to
be well in the lead of the field. The
letter follows:
"It has been reported in a Portland
newspaper that many of the teach
ers who took the examinations a
short time ago, are failing to pass.
This is not true however, as regards
Umatilla county. Tho teaohprs of
Umatilla county are, with few ex
ceptions, making excellent grndes,
and to Prln. H. M. Gunn of Hermis
ton belongs the distinction of hav
ing made the second highest average
in the entire state up to this time, he
having received a grade of 100 per
cent in three subjects.
"The state board of examiners is
making rapid progress with the
grading, and according to county su
perintendent WeU.es, who is a mem
ber of the state board and is now lu
Salem, the results of tho examinations
will probably be known the latter
part of this week."
Revenge!
"That fellow cut me out in a very
underhanded way."
"Yet you are going to the wed
ding?" "Yea. I may get a chance to soak
him with on old shoe."
