WESTON'S NORMAL
PRESIDENT FRENCH BRINGS AS
lsURANCE FROM LEGISLATURE
Eastern Oregon United In It's Sup
port Little Doubt But Drain Nor
NAL Will Be Abandoned.

President French OF the Weston Nor
NAL school, has returned from Salem.
He was seen at the rooms of the Pen
dleton Commercial Association by re-
porter and asked as to the probable out
come of the normal school legislation.
ITO attempt to say just what is going
to be done.' said he, "would be proph-
ecy. However, it is now practically
certain that no action will be taken
against any of the schools except the one
at Drain, and it is also certain that the
one there will be abolished. l under.
stand that bill will be presented in the
house providing for the discontinuance
of the Drain school,"
According to President French, a
very interesting struggle was waged for
several days in the legislature between
the friends and forces of the various
normal schools. The presidents Of all
four schools we're there, and their work
was mainly with the joint committee of
ways and means, composed of 10 mem
bers. One of the strongest arguments
used on the side of the schools was the
comparison of the expenses and work
of the normal schools of Washington and
California 10 those of Oregon. The
facts that were presented in this con.
nection were very telling, for they show
ed Oregon far in the rear as far as legis-
lative aid is concerned. Last year
$4,000 was given the Bellingham
school alone by the Washington institu-
tions. In the face Of these facts the
claim that too much money was being
expended on the state normal schools
had but little weight.
The Eastern Oregon members of the
legislature stand strongly against any
legislation antagonistic to the Weston
school, and those from Southern Ore
gon are equally jealous for the one at
Ashland. This, together with the fact
that both institutions are doing good
work, will probably insure their future
safety. However, the school at Drain
is neither Southern Oregon nor Val
ley school, and consequently has but
little backing. Also the fact that last
year it had but two graduates but an
expense OF $4,000, worked greatly
against it.
President French is of the opinion
that Weston will be given all that has
been asked in the way Of an appropna-
tion, which is $25, 1000 for maintenance,
and an equal amount for the erection Of
new dormitory.

horses are now dead, says the La
Grande Observer. AS the report was
received from one of the spectators
the train was backing in order to spot
some cars Immediately across the rail-
road and wagon road crossing. The
driver was attempting to drive across
the track with his wagon and team,
when one of the railroad officials
called to him. At this time, 1t is re-
ported, the horses were upon the
track and the lines were slack. The
driver began to pull the horses back
as fast as possible, and succeeded in
backing them some, when the train
being so near. he though the team
would surely be hit and he jumped
from the wagon to save his own life
When he released the lines, the horses
started up again, walked on the track
and were struck by the train. When
the train hit the team. they were car
ried few yards and caught in a small
trestle, breaking leg of each horse
which necessitated the killing of botf

ENDED IN A KNOCKOUT.
One-Round SpaTring Match Between
Wheat Raiser and Dealer.

A short one-round sparring match
ending in a knockout, occurred last
evening on Court street, and served
to afford a topic for conversation
aside from the weather. 1t was be-
tween T. G. Montgomery, the wheat
buyer, and ]. w, Myrick, the wheat
raiser of Myrick station. Between 4
and o'clock in the afternoon yes
terday Mr.. Montgomery was standing
in front of his office at the corner of
Court and Cottonwood streets, when
Mr.. Myrick came along. Evidently
something of a hostile or insulting
nature was said by the latter, for
with one blow he was knocked back
wards by Montgomery and hit the
sidewalk with a thud, remaining there
for a few seconds before getting up.
The fight is said to have been the
outcome of some trouble that has ex-
listed between the two men for six
months past. Within that time Ny
rick is said to have indulged in con.
siderable talk regarding Montgomery
and to have threatened to "clean out
his office some day.

New Pipe Line for Water Works.

New Pipe Line for Water Works.
The adjourned meeting of the city
council last night for the purpose Of
considering the question of putting in
a wooden pipe line to carry the city
supply of water from Big Salmon to
Marble creek, elected much discussion
concerning the various phases of the
matter in which there was a unanim-
ity of expression upon practically
every point. 1t was made clear that
the city has 10000 worth of bonds
to dispose of If that sum should be
necessary to carry out the work.
The pipe line was in high favor, and
as it is deemed peremptory neces-
sity it was decided to enter into a
contract with the Washington Pipe
and Foundry company for 10000 feet
of the piping or so much less as
Engineer Sanderg's surveys, which he
is now on the ground making, shall

crash late yesterday afternoon and
caused somewhat of a sensation in that
neighborhood for a time. 1t was the
portion about the middle of the

or so feet in length. The fall was ap-

broken above the knee, and his thigh
badly crushed as a result of runa-
way with a meat wagon yesterday, is
now resting well at the hospital and
