Newport, Or., May 27. W. F. Keady of Waldport, nominee on commissioner of LmcPln couii.y; is probably the only man in Oregon who keeps a whale in his front yard. . Keatty is ine sole owner, though not the proud owner, ot a wiiaie 1 o m length, which came some aays 1 piimned on the beach iitst in front of his house on Al J m, -l 1.4.:,, sea bay. Tne only coiisuiauiun vrnaAxr h n ft is that as a result of the monster's visit he will prob ably have one of the hnest lawns in T.infnln countv. TiiA whale, which apparently Viorl rlied some time before of old Use, dropsy or excessive weight, drifted into the moran 01 usca hnv some time aso. being driven in by high winds and tides. It first went ashore on tne 1101 m beach, just in front of the resi dence of Captain Nice. It re- mained there only a aaj 01 su, however, when it moved tavtacr up the bay and stranded in front I of the cannery. A fine oppor-1 tunity to put tip some choice j Packingtown whale was misseu nn dprannt of the fact that the cannery had not yet opened up for the season. The whale a train shifted its quarters, drifting back toward the mouth ot tfce bay, ana nuai ly going ashore on the sandy beach in front ot ft.eaay s piactv By this time the animal was get ting decidedly odoriferous, and to make matters worse a strong south wind sbrane up and blew steadily for three days, carrying the smelldirectly toward Jveaay s house and making tne piace 1.1 e J.

Today Keady announced that he had succeeded in burning up at least 30 feet of his whale, leav-ins- him only 48 feet more of the whale to dispose of. , The burning ot the wfiaie nas -left' the(grourid priWd ; 4 gh the finest quality ot o ine asn, d brittle, which will make excellent fertilizer.

The animal is too big to be moved, even if there were anv nlace to move it to, and it would take weeks to dig a hole deep enough and long enough to bury the carcass in. But the beach is piled high with thous ands of cords of driftwood. Keadv collected several cords of this and piled the huge logs on top of and about the whale, sptt.ino- firp to the mass.' For 26tf ' several days it has been burning , J une. "The convention was a splen did success," said Mr. Kline to day. "There were something like 300 delegates present, repre senting all parts of the country. I was forced to return home in advance of the rest of the Ore gon delegation on account of engagements at home."
