Lewis and Clark Exposition the after
noon of the 9th. leaving for the grounds
at exactly two o'clock. as per announce
ment to be made in the convention.
The addresses on the programme will
none of them exceed fifteen minutes in
length, leaving time for the important
business to be considered-a proper
representation of the various portions Of
the state through League headquarters
on the Exposition grounds will receive
attention. The sectional conventions
will be intensely practical.
Special rates made by the railroads
for this occasion insure the conyention'p
success. On the o. K. & n, La Grande
and points east will be one fare for the
round trip; points between La Grande
and Portland, one and one.third fare.
Tickets on the Southern Pacific will be
sold at one fare for the round trip from
Glendale and points south; between

Wednesday or Thursday morning.
April 2Sth is limit of tickets.
Now as to delegates. Every member
of the Oregon Development League is |
entitled to name delegation to include
any desired number-the section con-
ventions should be borne in mind in ap
pointing delegates so that men from the
different industries are named
Every editor in the state is delegate
at large, because it is through the news
papers that Oregon will get her public
ity. Where there is no organization
holding n embership in the League, the
appointment of representatives deyolves
upon the Mavors of towns aud the
County Commissioners, and it is eS +
pee ally desired that several sections of
he state not now aft lated with the
League should organize and i,in us.
Every possible permanent benefit
,honld be secured aa a result of the
enormous western travel that is now
certainty.

BUSY WEEK OVER.
Second Regiment Soldier Boys on
 Way Home.

Mantle. Conn, Aug 12.-The Second regiment, Connecticut Nationa! Guard, broke camp this afternoon and left for home after its week of duty at Camp Roberts. The forenoon was occupied with the usual routine of drills. but at noon the order to pack baggage was given and from then until 3.15 when the regiment marched out of camp to the train. all attention was devoted to preparations for moving. The train was scheduled to leave at 3:46, and due in New Haven shortly after 5 o'clock.
 Captain Besse of Co M Torrington. was the officer of the day; First Lieu tenant Hine of Co H, Middletown, was officer of the guard, and Second Lieutenant Manning of Co c, New Ha- ven, supernumerary officer of the guard.
 Officers and men alike declare that the camp has been a success and that the idea of encamping by regiments instead of as brigade is 6 good one. Some of the officers consider that more instruction was gained this week than was the case even at Ma nassas. The work by companies in extended order was especially instruc- tive.

MY PARTNER"

Next week "My Partner" which the Poli stock company will play at the Jacques, is undoubtedly Bartley Campbelfs masterpiece, western drama without pistol shot or red shirt. It tells the story of a middle
 aged miner who has joined hands and fortunes with much younger man, and the love between them is as deep as the valleys of California look from the mountain peaks. Matthew Brandon has settled in little com munity near Frisco and raised his two daughters, their mother being dead. Joe Saunders, the elder of the partners, falls in love with Mary Bran- don, only to find that she has been be- trayed by his much loved companion, Ned Singleton. Saunders overhears their conversation, makes Ned, his partner. swear to make the girl his wife within three days. The scene the partners; and Joe, after dividing their savings. decides to leave "the diggings." Their apparent quarrel IS overheard by one Scraggs, who, taking advantage of it. kills Singleton for his portion of the gold still lying on tho table, and decamps unseen. A China man who has imbibed somewhat free ly is found upon the premises and ac- cused of the crime, but later suspicion is turned against Saunders by Scraggs. Saunders proclaims his ,ano- cence, in the meantime defending the Chinaman from the threatened attack of the rough handed miners. Mary fees to noun tain city taking the Chinaman with her as a guard; her child has been born and died. Saunders Is being tried and verdict is anxiously awaited when Mary returns. Scraggs at- tempts to tell the story of her shame to her father but Is interrupted by Saunders who proclaims the girl is his wife. Proof of the marriage Is demanded and of course it cannot be given, when Major Henry Clay Britt, a western politician. steps forward and says the best proof will be d renewal of the marriage ceremony. and he as magistrate Is empowered to perform if. Thus Joe becomes Mary's husband simply in case of emergency. The last act shows that Mary's love for Singleton was but a romantic one, and that her heart has gone to Joe. discriminating evidence is found against Scraggs, the jury Is charged to aequit Saunders of the murder and Scraggs Is arrested.

BOYS COT A SCARE.
Collided With an Automobile on East
 Main Street.

Two little boys about 6 years of age narrowly escaped serious injuries this morning on East Main street, about lo;30 o'clock. AS they were crossing the road near North Elm street, MT Mailhiot, the South Main street mer- chant, came steaming along in his au- tolnobile. Whether or not the young sters heard the whistle Is not known. At any rate the machine crashed Into them and threw them headlong on the pavement. Their cries as they picked themselves up and ran toward each other could be heard for some distance. Blood was streaming from their faces and they were carried into Dr O'Hara' s office. Dr McLarney happened to be passing so he attended them. Al though they were shaken up consid- erably and had d few bad cuts on their faces, yet after few days they are likely to be as well as ever.

 Funeral of Late Archbishop.
 New Orleans. Aug. 12-The remains of Archbishop Chapelle of the diocese of Louisiana and apostolic delegate to Cuba and Porto Rico, were inferred in a crypt beneath the altar in the histor- ic St Louis cathedral at 11:15 o'clock yesterday forenoon. On account of the action taken by the Marine hOspi- tai authorities, comparatively few people attended.
 The funeral services were begun at 8 o'clock with the celebration of a solemn high mass. More than fifty of the priests and dignitaries of the To- cal Catholic churches assisted. After the mass Father Blever, who was the ~onfessor extraordinary to the Arch bishop. delivered a eulogy on the dead prelate.
 Following the sermon five absolu- tions were said over the body in the main aisle of the church. immediate ly in front of the altar. Father Bo- earts gave the first absolution. and he was followed by Chancellor Scotti. Mgr Laval. Abbot Paul and hastily by Bishop Rouxel, who is now in charge of the diocese.
 After the ceremony of the absolu- lions. eight of the priests took their pIaces at the side of the casket and bore it up the steps to the front af the altar. Prayers were said. the last rites were completed by a final abso- luton at the mouth of the sepulchre by the bishop. and the casket was slowly lowered into the vault
 As soon as the danger of the fever Is past a solemn requiem ceremony will be held in the cathedral to he at- tended by nearly all of the bishops and archbishops in the United States

Low Water Everywhere.

Because of the numerous breaks in the
water system OF Barre and the low water,
the fire department OF that place has
| decided that If a fire OF any magnitude
should break out the department would
| be OF no avail. Consequently Chief Camp
bell has appointed patrol which is on
duty at all times in the business sections
in order that the first trace OF fire may be
discovered. Water is being delivered in
street sprinklers in Barre by the city to
families whose pipes are frozen.

scarce in Sheldon and Fairfield, as the
springs are very numerous and plentiful
in those towns.

Co. was engaged to pump water from its
supply into the water mains, and the
engine was kept at this work from Satur-
day evening until Monday morning, add
ing 1,S00 gallons an hour to the regular
supply. The condition OF the reservoir
is now more satisfactory.
The Marvin pond, an artificially con-
structed body OF water on the Barre road

for residents of the locality to water their
cattle at this pond, and when one man
arrived there one evening lately the pond
had departed. Ii was discovered that the
frost had cracked the bottom of the
reservoir and the pond had playfully slid
through the aperture.

Baby Perished in Swanton Fire.

A fire Feb. 10 destroyed the dwelling
house occupied by Aide MARCEL at
Swanton, together with its contents, and
a six. months-old baby was so severely
overcome by the heat and smoke that il
died.
Mrs. MARCEL had left the baby with her
two little children while she went across
the street. When she came back the children
ran out Of the house screaming that il was
on fire. She aroused the neighbors and
when some men reached the scene she told
them her baby was in the house in its
cradle.
The rescue of the baby was a pluckv
deed, the house being at that time all
ablaZe and the room in which the cradle
stood almost a Kissing furnace. Three
men, John and Joseph Lafar and Edward
Campbell, entered the house and one man
threw pail of water over the smoking
cradle while John Lafar grabbed up the
baby and brought it outdoors.
