J) TRAP SHOOTING MAY BE REVIVED There is a strong probability that trap shooting as a sport will be re vived in Pendleton and that this city will maintain a club in a league which will include all of the prin cipal cities in Oregon and two in Washington. For the purpose of arousing interest in the sport and organizing if possible a club, Gus Peret, famous Oregon boy who has made a reputation as one of the best marksmen in the world with revolver rifle or shotgun, is here today and will spend the balance of the week. The idea of a state league was con ceived by Peret ana so eagerly has It been received that a club has been organized in every one of the twelve cities except Pendleton at this time.. Under the plan of the league, each club team will meet every other one and without paying a cent for rail- in 1872 and had lived In Umatilla county for 32 years, having been en gaged In stock raising most of that time. In 1846 he was married to Miss Margaret Dow and nine children were born to them. Five of the children living are: C. H. Bolin of Linn county; J. B. Bolln of California; Mrs. Frank Thompson of Florida; Mrs. Charles Vinson of this county and Mrs. T. P. Gilllland. Mr. Bolin died at the home of his nelce Mrs. Sadie Plerson with whom he had made his home the past 22 months. He was 86 years oldvat the time of death. The funeral was held Sunday, with burial in the local cemetery. Bev. Weaver of the Christian church offi ciated.

The clubs will be paired each week and a day assigned for the match. On that day each club will f-hoot at its own grounds under the supervision of an appointed judge and every man in the club will be eligible to compete. However, only the five high scores will count in the match. These scores will be sent In to the league headquarters and com pared. The season will commence during the middle or latter part of February and Will continue for elev en weeks so that each team can shoot against every other team.- The win ner of the largest number of matches will win the trophy which will be put up. The cities proposed for the league r.re Pendleton, La Grande and Ba ker in eastern Oregon; Portland, Sa 'em, Albany and Eugene in the Wil lamette valley; Roseburg, Medford and Ashland in southern Oregon, and Vancouver and Camas in Washing ton. Peret has just come from La Grande where his proposal was at once accepted. Likewise all other cities have fallen in line with out hesitation. Peret states that, de spite the fact that at present there is no trap shooting organization here he finds the sentiment for one very good and contemplates calling a meeting of sportsmen during the lat ter part of the week. Some years ago Pendleton was on Seeking for Okl Tinier. Does anyone know whether Travis Maddox Is dead or alive and If the latter where he Is at present? This information Is sought by Mrs. H. T. Elder of Rich Hill, Mo., a nelce of the sought man. who declares he lived In this city a number of years ago and should be known by old set tiers. Old Food Racer, Jailed. "Farmer Brown," who. in the nine ties, was one of the fastest men doing professional footracing and who number of years ago was injured in a tunnel explosion while working for the railroad, was the only man to fall by the way last evening and to bi rescued by the police. He had indulg ed too freely in the cup that cheers Snow Blockade Still Exists. Despite the strenuous efforts of the O. W. R. & X Co. to open up its road between this city and Walla Walla, as yet the snow blockade ha not been removed. The big drifts near Athena and Weston are obstacle or a formidable nature, testified t by the fact that the snow plow sent there yesterday was thrown off the of the track in trying to buck them. All trains are being routed by way of Umatilla and Wallula and all are running several hours late. IHMJlt OK NASSAU SHUT TO WILSON Princeton, X. J., Jan. 21. Admis sion to Nassau Hall was refused to President-elect Wilson, who, as gov ernor of New Jersey, is ex-officlo chairman of the board of trustees of Princeton University, because he had no permit to visit the building. Aft erward he tried the door, but it was locked and he turned away In dis gust, with the remark, "There's "an Ignoramus over there and a locked door here." The governor was taking a regular Sunday morning walk and this time was accompanied by Mrs. Wilson and Mrs. Toy. who is a visitor at the Wil son home.. They directed their course to the university campus, the governor pointing out special fea tures of the various buildings. Arriv ing at the ancient pile, the President elect excused himself and ducked into the basement and asked Samuel Da vidson, official Janitor of the gym nasium, to be permitted to visit Nas sau Hall. The Janitor replied that he must have a permit. The president-elect, not to be deterred by the refusal, tried the door anyway, without success.

Involving more questions of law probably than any suit which has been tried In the local court for sev eral years, the case of T. F. Kendall vs. the First National Bank of Mil ton is still being fought before Judge Parker of Condon, sitting for Judge Phelps, who is ill. The case began Saturday, but owing to the snow blockade which prevented Jurymen plaintiff, defendant and witnesses from reaching the city until late yes terday. It was not resumed again un til this morning. As yet the plain tiff has been the only witness on the I stand and there are eight others to follow'. The suit Involves a note given to Kendall when he sold his hard ware store and which he claims the bank did not protest when It became due. Later the mortgage was fore closed but the amount realized left the plaintiff In arrears about $1200, which amount he claims the bank should pay because of negligence. The bank contents it was not hold ing the note as collateral but merely as an accommodation for the plain tiff. The case Is a complicated one and it Is predicted will be appealed which ever way the Jury decides. Col. James H. Haley is representing the plaintiff and James A. Fee and S. D. Peterson the defendant. LATE CIimSTOPIIER BOLIN LAID TO REST Christopher Bolln, who died Sat- lurday In this city, was born April 27 1826, In Indiana.
