Homer It Watts,' member of the pres ent graduating class of the University of Oregon, has been elected to the chair of mathematics in the Southern Oregon Normal School. Mr. ' Watta spent two years at the Weston Normal School, taking advanced work in. mathematics. He was graduated from the Oregon State Normal School at Monmouth in '97. Later he was enrolled for one year in the civil engineering department of Throop College, Pasadena, Cal. Mr. Watts entered the State University in the fall of 1900, and during that session took advanoed work in mathematics un der Professor George Lilly. ' Since hie enrollment in the university be has been prominently identified with all student- body enterprises, and has held a posi tion on the varsity football team, cap taining it last season. Mr. Watta will deliver the class-day' oration, bis sub ject being "The Zenith of America." , "Isb," as he is known to the student body throughout the state and to bis friends at home, is 27 years of age. He is the son of Tbos. J. Watts and a brother of M. L. Watts, of the Athena public school faculty. He has within him the bone and sinew of a farm- grown lad, is energetic in all the word implies, and starting with bright pros pects thus early in life, will surely reach the topmost round in life's ladder." WIND - AT -WALLA WALLA. Vproatad Trass, Twisted Warehouses and Damaged Fruit. A peculiarly destructive and violent wind and dust storm visited Walla Walla Monday evening, blowing about forty five minutes. According to the records at the. weather bureau, the wind main tained a velocity of thirty-eight miles an hour for twenty minutes and attained a maximum of 48 miles an hour at one time. The wind came almost directly from the east, a strange phenomenon in this country. , " . , , .Large trees were uprooted in different parts of the city, electric light, tele phone and telegraph wires temporarily paralyzed and several structures blown down or damaged.' ; Growing fruit was blown from the trees in considerable amount. f The warehouse of the Washington & Columbia "River Railway, off College Avenue, was twisted out of alignment during the storm, and is practically a wreck. :..rl- - -; -. In Athena the peculiar and rare oc casion of a dust storm coming from the eait was notable. Aside from this peculiarity; there is nothing to report, for the threatening clouds did not give down a sprinkle of rain, and the wind was not of sufficient velocity to damage. The League Butted. The Inland Empire League has again died a natural death without complet ing the series of games scheduled. This time Dayton squawked first on paying a salaried team. A "bush" league can not be made to pay in the first place, and in the second, independent games are better relished, anyway. Pendleton and Walla Walla will maintain indepen dent teams.
