Proprietors of barns that nre locat

fore the city council. Two petitions
were presented to the -council request
ing that the city declare the burns a
nuisance.
One of the places Is located on Mat
lock street near the river and the
other Is on Marie street. In the pe
titions, which were signed by a large
number of property owners, the decla
ration Is made that the places are un
sanitary and unsightly, and the horses
are said to kick up such a quantity of
dust as to make the neignnornoou
a disagreeable place to live.
The matter was referred to the po
lice committee and the city physici

The application of A. J. Gibson for
permission to construct a dance hall

year .
The top price of the auction was
paid to Hhoun and Will, Mitchell men,

Early lust evening 'the Commercial
Association managers (Mayor Hart
man is a member of the board) made
an Inspection of the auto camp ground,
rf the city dumping ground, of Round
1'p park, the Lincoln school and the
high school. The trip proved extrem-'
ily interesting and In many respects
was an "eye opener" to board mem
bers. At the auto camp ground 2ft cars
were encamped Inside the inclosure at
the old pump house and 30 cars were
counted outside of the Inclosure. They
were scattered promiscuously all over
the region around the Washington
school.
Inside the Inclosure the tourists had
sought out the trees around the fence
and every tree was taken. There are
no trees In the center of the tract and
the space is undesirable for camping.
-There wns one water faucet Inside the
old building and seemingly this pro
vides water for the entire area which
covers many acres. There are two
toilels side by side Inside the pump
building. These were pronounced by
the attendant; John Miller, as poorly
arranged and Inadequate for so many
people. There are no lights in or

FOR ADVICE ABOUT
New Road is Imperative
Funds Insufficient;
Name for Cabbage
but
New
Hill.
How can the county court best spend
165.000 thut will be available next
March for work on the roud to the
Urant county line? What name shall
be adopted in lieu of Cabbage Hill?
These questions were propounded
to the Commercial Association mem
bers at the forum luncheon toduy by
County Judge I. M. Schannep. The
judge recommended that Cabbage Hill
have a new name and asked that a
i Is "criminal to drive over it. How
ever the engineers report it will cost
$150,000 to build a proper grade and
the court will have but 165,000 for
the purpose next spring. Consequent
ly the court wants advice on what
shall be done.
"Another road bond issue" was sug
gested to the judge and he said that
would be one way of providing funds.
However he did not go into the bond
ing subject or make any recommen
dations on that point.
In his talk Judge Schanney report
ed that at the meeting of the highway
commission in Portland yesterday the
commission agreed to go fifty-fifty
with the county on grading on the Pi
lot Rock-Nye road and to do all the
gravelling on that road.
The -judge said the county Is pre
paring large t'matilla county signs
for use on the, main thoroughfares
leading into the county. He asked
for suggestions," as to the lettering
thnt should appear on these signs.
At the forum luncheon today Col
Charles Wellington Furlong explained
advertising efforts that Putnam A
Sons are making In connection with
his book "Let 'er Buck," which will
soon be off the press. The publish
ers are planning .some extensive pub
licity work.

until September.
DEMPSEY IS FAVORITE
165 OUT OF 225 VOTES
NEW YORK, June 30. (A. P.)
Dcmprey was ruled the favorite
among 165 sportmen out of the 225 in
terviewed. Fifty eight predicted thr
challenger would win the heavyweight
belt, while a scattering few. including
a noted college track trainer, said they
expected the bout would be about even.
Men declaring for Carpentier gen
erally declined to state out and oui
that the Frenchman is their favorite.
Their general opinion is that if the
bout goes five rounds Carpentier will
outbox the champion for the remaind
er of the contest. A great majority
professed to believe- that Dempsey's
hitting power will bring the buttle ti
a sudden close if he can land.
Only a few predicted Carpentier
would knock out the champion, an'
those demanded long odds. The figh
ers will meet in an 18 foot ring whicl
was Installed in Jersey City today.

Was the present site of the city of

When young Francis Sullivan in

'uiers went on an exploring expedition
'o the guli'h just back of Locust Hill
esterday he did n"t know what he
vas about to find. He did find some
hing of Interest for he hrought tr
Major Moorhouse's office about
uishel of fosilized marine life appar
npy many centuries old.
Ainons the sm'cimens are sea clams,

d vertebrae that look like they might
lave once formed the backbones of
ea serpents. There are also speci
mens of sea moss. Some of the scales
nd pieces of skins of some of the fish
ire in a perfect state of preservation.
The specimens supposed to be parts
of petrified sea serpents still retain
he ir'deseent colorings seen in the skin
of a live snake. Major Moorhouse is
f th opinion that this country was
once the oceans bed and that when
the water receded the snakes were

from the silica In the water.
The interesting find is now at Major
Moorhouse's office. He plans to send
