Hudson Bay Rancher Creates Scene al
the o. r. e. N. Depot.

Walia Walla "booze" has bad eff
feet on Bob" Elliot, well known
Hudson Bay rancher. Elliot intended
to start for Pendleton this morning but
he got only as far as the o. r. & N.
depot where he found things were not
running to suit him. He launched
forth in few choice ''cuss" words and
ended his profanity by finding himself
occupying a cell in the city Jail. Elliot
created such a disturbance at the
depot that the hackman who had been
engaged to haul him to the station
turned around and drove his passenger
to the city Jail.
Then Elliott was mad clear through
and expressed many and vari-colored
opinions Of Walla Walla and the police
force in general. He was well sup
piled with money and is said to be a
very fine fellow when not imbibing.
Tt depends on his conduct this after
noon whether or. not he will be allowed
to continue his journey to the Umatilla
town tonight.

MINE CASES REVERSED
Dissenting Supreme Court Judge Holds
Majority Opinion Is Wrong
PAGE EIGHT

OLYMPIA, April 25.-By a decision
rendered yesterday, the state supreme
court, according to the dissenting opin-
ion of Judge Dunbar, established a
doctrine which will prevent recovery
by unfortunate victims of mine acct
dents under every and all circum-
stances"
The decision was rendered in the
Spokane county case of John D. Smith
against the Hecla Mining company, a
personal injury accident in which the
lower court, on verdict, granted plain
tiff judgment for $4,000. The SUI
preme court reverses that judgment
and grants a new trial.
The plaintiff was employed as a
mucker in the Hecla mine at Gem,
Idaho, and was crushed under a fall of
rock. The majority decision of the SUI
preme court was written by Judge
Root and concurred in by Justices
Mount, Crow and Rudkin.
the vital point of the decision is that

tine exercise of due diligence on the
part of the servant to ascertain and
protect against dangers that are liable
to accur is one of his duties.
In closing it's decision the court says:
Owing to the large amount Of incom-
petent evidence and the erroneous the
DRY upon which the case was tried, and
the jury instructed, we feel a new trial
should be had
Judge Dunbar holds that the deci-
sion of the lower court should be af-
firmed and says in part: "Tne servant
has a right to rely upon the presump-
ton that the master will furnish him
a reasonably safe place to work.
According to the majority opinion
there was joint duty or responsible
ity. Such theory would prevent re-
covery by unfortunate victims in mines
under every and all circumstances"

DARING WIRE ACT.
Mile LueIIita Gave a Sensational Wire
 Performance.

To a large matinee crowd yesterday afternoon and fair-sized crowd last night. in spite of the rain, Mile Luelli- ta, queen of the High Wire" gave her initial performances for the week at Electric Park.
 The act is one that requires great amount of skill and daring. and never fails to call forth a round of applause from the spectators-ln fact, the petite blond received several rounds Of ap- plause at each performance yesterday.
 The first act was disrobing on the wire, which this female Blondin has the reputation of being the only woman who has ever successfully attempted. This was followed by the famous basket walking speciality. in which the actress walked the entire length of the wire with her feet encased in rather large Japanese baskets. after which she danced and skipped along the wire with as much ease and grace as If she had been doing turn upon an ordinary stage instead of a slender cable stretched 80 feet above the ground.
 But the most sensational of the entire series of clever features on the wire was the difficult head balance in which the mademoiselle placed her head upon the wire and turned her toes skyward fin a perfect boise.
 All in all. the performance Is one or the best free attractions that has been seen at the park this season ,and VIII
