 on Russian Vessel.
Advertiser Bureau.

Advertiser Bureau.
 Mobile. .Oct.7 John Jackson a local shipping master. engaged in procuring seamen Tor out going vessels, is again in the tolls Of Un- cle Sam. He was already under bond for xiolating the law relative to conspiring to secure money from captains of vessels for eeamens wages.
 Jackson, through instructions obtained from a negro, so the story goes. secured eleven men here and took the into Pen sacola. He told the men they would be engaged for a trip to Vera Cruz and re- turn. Instead of this. however, the men, on arriving in Pensacola, were placed on board Russian bark. the St. Julian. for a much greater cruise than to the port named.
 Major You, United States Immigration Inspector at this port. becoming aware of the fact that Jackson had taken the men from Mobile, went to Pensacola and had warrants sworn out for Jackson and three other shipping masters in Pensa- cola, besides the captain of the St. Julian, for conspiracy to obtain advance wages from seamen The Pensacolians were ar rested in that city and Jackson. who in the meantime had come here was ar rested this morning by a deputy sheriff who had been deputized as special United States deputy. The eleven seamen are also being held in Pensacola as wit nesses. The warrant charges that he got about $500 for the eleven seamen.

The Athena press. [volume] (Athena, Umatilla County, Or.) 18??-1942, 1903-11-20
MORE NEW
BUILDINGS
Bricks are to Go Up on
Main Street

The First National Bank Of Athena
is to have new and commodious home
and @. A. Barrett is the man who will
provide it.
AS soon as spring opens and the
weather will permit of building, the
work of construction will commence.
The new bank building will be an exact
| duplicate of the First National Bank
building in Pendleton both in arrange
ment of interior and exterior. 1t will be
built of brick, with 25-foot frontage on
Man street, and will extend go feet
back on Fourth street.
Should Mr.. Barrett be able to lease
bis present store room and the portion
OF the building new occupied by the
bank on suitable terms, he announces
toa reporter that he will extend the
new building to the dimensions Of 80.
foot frontage on Main street and will
occupy the portion not used by the bank
with his hardware store.
/ Mr.. Barrett's enterprise will be ap-
preclated by the people here. He is
pre-eminently the leading town builder
of Athena, having already constructed
three brick buildings for business pur-
poses, and the fact that he is to erect
the fourth stamps him indelibly before
our people as man Of decisive action
and indomitable enterprise.
1t is learned from Will Wells that
Mrs. ]. II. Stahl, of Walla WalIa, who
recently purchased the LaFave property
at the corner Of Main and Third streets
will undoubtedly commence the erection
Of "a brick building with 5O-foot front
age on Main street, as soon as spring
weather will permit. II is understood
| that Mrs. StahI is yet undecided wleth-
: or to construct the building two stories
in height or stop at ne-story building.
1t is also understood that the two
story proposition depends upon whether
or not building Of that size would be
paying investment. The location Of the
property has no superior on Main street.
In addition TO being centrally situated,
it has the advantage Of being on the
corner OF one Of the most frequented
and populous tributary streets Of any
leading to the business center Of the
town, and the general expression to be
encountered is that il an investment in
two-story building win not pay on this
property it certainly will not pay on any
other portion Of the street.
There is dearth of suitable and sub
stantiai business buildings in Athena,
and If the owners OF desirable corner
locations do not take the initiative in
the construction Of brick buildings with
modern conyeniences, the owner Of the
middle lot surely will not feel disposed
to improve to any great extent; although
in Athena, unlike other towns, the
middle lot owner has come to the front
with better and more substantial build
ings.

POSTOFFICE
is LOCATED
Goes Into the Barnett
Property Dec. |

The postotilce will 90 to the Barnett
building on Main street, instead of the
Post building as at first intended. Some
days ago Thos. j.. Clark, postofiice in
spector, was in Athena looking into the
matter and found that the Post building
was out Of the delivery jurisdiction of
the railroad company distance OF S8
feet. To relieve the government from
delivering the mail from the depot to
the postoffice, the Barnett building has
been selected
The new location will be in the room
east Of M. J. Bagley's general merchan-
disc store and the Office will be moved
on about December 1st. The new home
OF the Office will be put in proper con-
dition at once. The room will be al
tered somewhat from IFS present ar
rangement and additional conveniences
will be added for the accommodation Of
Uncle Sans mail delivery at this point.
The patrons of the Office congratulate
Postmaster Citizens on his success in
interesting the department in bettering
the postoffice conditions in Athena.
