Miss Hllnh Ilrlck and Miss Mae Dennis. Mrs. Silvis' personal work is that of a real artist, and her work as an instructor as seen in the displays of decorated ware made by her pupils, Is also of high rank. Combinations of lusters, sifting the white light and reflecting it back in a bewildering succession of colors, were effectively used by Mrs. Silvis In decoration of vases and candle sticks. She had Japanese Satsuma. too. and heavy enamel work, and an enameled, decorated incense vase of unusual slie, done with dusted back ground. Of especial beauty were the pieces she had prepared in acid etched gold designs. Accompanying these was a set in silver on Sedgwood green. A large reproduction in oils of George Hitchcock's "Holland Morning" brought Mrs. Silvis many compliments, and of only slightly less merit was her china medallion of Miss Hilah Brick. S.ilslllna Work AttTArtS Mrs. J. H. Mcister had some beau tiful pieces in enamels, and Miss Dennis had some excellent decorated china. Noteworthy among the ex hibits was the complete set by Mrs Robert Muncey. 69 years of age. and as a contrast to this v.-cre the shak ers by little Ila Silvis, seven. Mrs. Silvis' youngest pupil. One of the especially attractive groups of decorated ware was that by Miss Brick, her lamp hearing a reproduction of Maxfield Parrfsh's "Lamp Seller of Bagdad." gaining especial attention. She had also a Satsuma vase in enamel and roses. Mrs. (ieorge Vandevert had a large Katsiiriia lamp in enamels, showing real craftsmanship. Excellent bits of work by Mrs. J. K. Hosch. a tea set in gold and ivory by Miss Blanch Drake, pleasing work by 13 year old Maxine Neilson. and a chocolate pot beautifully done in browns by lloslne Forrest, were grouped nearby. Mrs. Prank James had a vase in luster, with attractive bluebird design, and a tea set in conventional flower design. Jack Snyder, nine years of age. Mrs. Silvis' only boy pupil, had an exhibit of much merit of opalescent luster in wild roses. A three piese set by Car roll (irinnell. a vase by Katherlne Baldwin, a piece by Sally Hogg, and a salad bowl by Marion Dubuis were all well handled. Miss Alma Krans hail a three piece tea set. pleasingly done In blue, gold anil ivory. I SAI.KM. May 20. Two men count zed the hours today ttntij the spring ling of the gallows Friday morning j will end their lives. The pair are probably the strang est condemned men the Oregon pris- on has ever held. Arthur Covell. crippled astrologer I of Coqutlle, will pay the penalty for j murdering his sister in law. He 'said be read her fate In the heavens 'and obeyed their bidding. Covell was helped In his murder 'plot by Alton Covell. hta 16 year old f nephew and stepson of Mrs. Ebha Covell, whom they slew. The other doomed man is U W. i Peare. a hapless rancher of Coos county. Peare was an eccentric old I fellow, past middle age, w hom his neighbors said was rather "queer. " One day he drank some of his own home made moonshine aud went crazy. He slew his wife and then a : neighbor. James Culver. Both cases were taken to the su preme court and upheld. Today there remained only the possible In terference of Governor Pierce be tween the men and the gallows. He said he would not Interfere with the ' sentences unless he was "shown some I mighty good reason for doing so." MAItSHFlEI.D. May 20 No rec 'omtnendatlon for mercy will be made I for Covell and Peare from Judge J. C. Kendall, before whom both cases I were tried, according to a positive statement from him today. WORK TO INSPECT IRRIGATION UNITS Fate of Projects May Be De cided, Intimated IU. P. Leajcd Wire to The Beml Bulletin) PORTLAND, Moy 20. Fate of some of the Pacific northwest recla mation projects will probably be de termined on a visit of Secretary of Interior Hubert Work to Oregon and Washington early in July, according to a special Washington dispatch to the Oregon Journal. Work. Eiwood Mead, director of reclamation, and Stephen T. Mather director of national parks, will be among the party which will Inspect the Kittitas and Tleton units in Washington and the Baker. Vale and Owyhee projects In Oregon. The question of financing sellers on the projects will be discussed with officials of the two states. Whether government expenditures on some of the projects will be made is said to depend upon whether the states can promise suitable arrangements for placing setters on the lands. The party will visit the Kittitas and Tieton units July 1 and and spend July 4 and 5 In Kalnler na tional park, going to Seattle July 6 It will then go to Portland and Salem July ". leaving July 9 for Baker and Ontario.

The California boxing comtnisston was on record today as being opposed to fights in which champions do not risk their titles. The boxing board promises to take a larger share in .dictation of terms for future fights. !The loop hole against this, it was 'asserted, would be for champions to .sign for 12 round no decision fights, as all 10 round battles mjust go to a 'decision. J The Iliac is the national flower of .Denmark. iing. All day Tuesday the prevailing wind was from the north, blowing ; toward the area of low pressure in the south. Late In the afternoon, a 'great flotilla of fleecy clouds moved : toward the north, in the very direc tion from which the wind was com ing. When the electrical storm broke over Bend a few minutes before 6 o'clock, the wind switched to the south. The battle of the elcmenls must hare continued through the night, while the warm rain fell incessantly, for this morning the clouds had "about faced" and were moving to ward the south from the norihwewst.
