WOOL CAR COMING

THE WOOL CAR.
Why the wool car exhibit of the
Department of Agriculture should
some only as far south as Madras,
as reported elsewhere in this paper.
Is difficult to understand. Scores
of ranchers in this section raise wool
and In the territory east and south
ot town there are many men who
engage in the-sheep business exclus
ively. The car should be brought to
Bend for the benefit of the many who
would be glad of . the opportunity to
take in the exhibit here. Here Is a
chance for the Commercial club to
do some work.

The Desert Land board reported
that diligent effort had been made by
the state, through Its contractors, to

that more land has been offered to

have these contracts canceled now
because the project has not been

BASEBALL PLAYERS'
STRIKE SCOFFED AT
Material Changes in Rules Also Ex
pected to Come I'p at Meeting
of Major League Heads.
By H. C. Hamilton,
(United Preaa Staff Correspondent.)
NEW YORK, Feb. 12. Suffering
fandom doubtless will learn today
to its great relief that there never
has been a chance for baseball play
ers to pull off their threatened strike,
and that all talk of such action is
worthy only of youthful minds.
The two major leagues will hold
their annual schedule and rules com
mittee meetings In New York, begin
ning today, and all sorts of reasons
for laughing at the strike are expect
ed to emanate from the subdued air
at the Waldorf hotel.

players' strike In operation be should
' witness today's proceedings, for it
is time he was told differently. The
strike will be officially called null
and void so tar as baseball magnates
are concerned.
, Besides this momentous announce
ment, several wrangles are expected
to develop in what otherwise would
be a peaceful session. The National
legaue head, John K. Tener, wants
some changes made in the playing
rules and so do a few others.
Tener believes the plate is tr
small, judging apparently by the ef
fort of some pitchers who draw pay
checks from, his cohorts, and he says
It should be broadened a full inch.

NAMES IN JAPAN.
The Only Lasting Title a Man Gats
Comas When He Dias.
The Japanese have many quaint cus
toms banded down from generation to
gonertitlon. One of tho strangest Is
that of their naming ceremony. When
cue mouth old a Japanese child gets Its
flrst nunie with ceremonial. Trumpets
are blown, ami tho child Is borne In
great state to the family temple, and
behind the proevsslou march the house
bold servants carrying the Infant's
wordrobe. The servaut in the rear of
the procession beurs a huge box. In
which Is tho priest's fee, together with
three shjis of paper, on which throe
names are written. On reaching the
temple the names are thrown Into the
air, and the first that touches the
ground is the one which tho child re
ceives. When throe years old tho child Is
again named, accompanied by elaborate
religious rites. At the age of fifteen
bis education Is supposed to bo Un
billed, and as he then enters manhood
(according to Japuucse law) he is agalu
named.
When he takes to business be re
ceives his "business" name, by which
be Is known In the commercial world,
and upon every upward step In life lie
receives a new nunie. If bis master
happens to hare the same name he
must at once change it. as It detracts
from his superior's dlguity. At his
marriage bis name is altered again,
and Ills last and only permanent one is
that given him after death, which is
written on his tomb. London Answers.

LAUGHS WHEN WHIS

(By United Frew to The Dally Bulletin)
WASHINGTON, Feb. 12. To
prove that even though they oppose
each other In political matters, the
best of feeling exists between Sena
tor LaFollette, Wisconsin, and Sen
ator Lewis, Illinois, Lewis laughed
the other day when LaFollette pulled
his (Lewis') Bilken whiskers during
a session of the Senate.
The friendly spat occurred during
a roll call. Lewis good-naturedly
Interrupted LaFollette in what ap
peared to be an Intensely Interesting
story.
Desperately twining his index fin
gers In the soft, silken beard of the
senator from Illinois, LaFollette gave
It a none too gentle Jerk.
Lewis resumed has seat, but for
some time held his band to the spot
where the aforesaid whiskers wore
anchored. ";
Tha Furtive Look.
Here Is something worth while for
bachelors to consider.
A Boston woman says she can detect
a bachelor as far as she can see hlin.
She always knows a bachelor by his
furtive look. The furtive look, she ex
plains, is something akin to that of a
hunted animal, always on the wutch
for snares and pitfalls. Of course this
may apply only to Boston bachelors,
but It would be well for all other sin
gle unfortunate to take a good look
at themselves In the mirror and llud
that telltule look. If they do there Is
an easy way to efface it. Cleveland

Why a Korte Rolls.
Horses are fond of rolling on the
ground, ami no animal mure thorough
ly shakes itself than 1 1 1 ,-y do. After
a roll they give tliemse ves a shuke
or two to remove anything adhering
to the coat The habit Is of much
service to horses living In oiicn plains.
On being turned loose at the end of u
Journey an Arab horse rolls In tho
sand, which acts us bailing iacr, ab
sorbing exudations from the body. A
shake removes the sand, and tho coat
soon dries. 'Cavalrymen in hot climates
sometimes put sand on their horses as
the simplest and quickest way of drying
them.
