The old Bailey building at corner
of Main and Water streets, now about
to be demolished or removed to give
way to the new automobile establish
ment was built by Judge Bailey, fath
er of the late D. W. Uailey and Mr.-?.
William Jones, about the year 187S.
It was occupied as the U. S. post office
until the winter of 18S2-3 when the
office was removed to the corner of
Court and Johnson streets, where Me
Cormmach garage now stands. Lo
Livermore was postmaster in those
days and Horace E. Bickers was as
sistant postmaster. Judge Bailey
was a lawyer, justice of the peace
and county judge. After the removal
of the postoffice the building was used
by Mrs. Crane as a dressmaking shop,
and later Mr. Bailey had an office in
the building, and until very recent
years the lower floor has been utilized
only by temporary occupants and by
the Hotel Pendleton for sample
rooms. The small building immedi
ately to the east, which is also now to
disappear, is an older structure and
was the Bailey law office in his prime.
It was later the law office of Peter
West of divorce fame, and of J. E.
Miller, who flourished here in the ni
neties. For a short time after the re
moval of the postoffice some of the
older citizens are of the opinion that
there was a hardware store located in
the building. Pendleton Tribune.

AFTER SLEEP OF CENTURIES
Ecclesiastic May Be Said to Have Re
turned to Earth for a Few
Brief Moments.
There was a little gathering In the
green graveyard of mi old priory
chnrch. There wus the rector and an
old antiquary In rusty black, a few
neighboring squires, the county police
sergeant, the sexton and a laborer or
two, while an ancient stone coffin, re
cently unearthed, lay on the ground.
"Who do you suppose It Is, profes
sor?" Inquired the rector.
The old man In black polished his
glnsses and adjusted them carefully.
"It must be Thomas IVIioehm's," he
said. "Thomas w ho was prior here In
the time of Henry 111, about 1220. But
we shall see."
A hush fell on the group as the men
set to work with hammer and chisel.
"All ready," the sexton reorted
presently. They took off their hats and
the policeman removed his helmet. The
ponderous lid was slowly pushed aside
and they were gazing at the calm,
strong face of an ecclesiastic In rich
silk vestments, wrapped In his 700
years' sleep.
"Yes, It's Thomas," murmured the
professor, with the air of one recog
nizing an old friend. "Very like the
contemporary portrait on the vellum."
As they continued to gaze, spell
bound, a weird thing happened. The
vestments gradually lost their color
ing inn) then all that the coffin con
tained crumbled before their eyes to a
mere handful of ashes.
"luist to dust," whispered the rec
tor. Very subdued and silent the little
company dispersed. London Times.
PHANTOM GAVE GOOD ADVICE
Apparition That Appeared to French
Shepherd Was Possibly Some Re
lation to the Leprechaun.
Every Irishman can tell you about
the Leprechaun, the little man who
dresses In red with a peaked cap, and
lives In the ditches. Only one person
can see him at a time, nnd If he does
catch sight of him, must never take
his eyes off for a single moment.
Watching him carefully, he must run
and catch him, and If he succeeds In
doing so the Leprechaun will ransom
himself by lending his captor to a
creek of hurled gold. At least, so runs
the legend.
Sumo years ago a French shepherd
of Avejrori lost two sheep. The fol
lowing evening a figure In a black robe
and with tonsured head appeared to
him, and told him to look for the lost
members of his flock In a cave near
Altes, adding that he would there find
"more tliun sheep."
The next day the shepherd found
the cave mouth exactly as described.
Inside were his two sheep. Beyond,
he came upon a chapel carved In the
rock and containing chalices, censers,
and candle-sticks all made of solid
silver, and of very considerable value.
A letter found In a missal showed that
the place hud been used as a place of
worship during the Itelgn of Terror In
17!H. The shepherd took the orna
ments to his parish priest and was
well rewarded for his find.
