The City of In.

You might exhaust yourself looking
In atlas and gazetteer for the city Of Is,
because it is purely legendary. Here
is a brief statement of the legend:
"The magnificent city Of Is was stu
ated on the coast of Brittany where
now is the bay of Douarnenez.n 1t
was built below the level Of the sea
and surrounded by massive walls.
Here in the fifth century was the
court Of the pious King Gradlon and
of his wicked daughter, Dahut, who
had a pleasant habit Of throwing her
suitors into well when their society
became tiresome. One Of her favorites
asked her to obtain for him the silver
key which fastened the sluice gates In
the city wall. Dahut accordingly stole
the key from her fathers neck while he
slept, the lover unlocked the gates and
the sea rushed in and overwhelmed the
city and Its Inhabitants, including the
princess. Only the king escaped. The
Breton peasants say that the spirits Of
the drowned still haunt the spot, and
the bells Of the submerged city are
often heard ringing at low tide"

.sDoN CAESAR DE BAZAN."
A Large Audience Highly Pleased by
High Glass Performance.

In "Don Caesar de Bazan," pre-
sented last night. Pendleton theater-
goers had the first chance to see real
acting since Soldiers of Fortune"
was here over a month ago. Accord
ingly. all took advantage of the op-
portuniry.
Don Caesar de BaZan," as pOr-
trayed by Charles B. Hanford and mis-
company, is a play that pleases, yet
does not stir to any great depth, nor
make any lasting Impressions on
those who have seen 1t. Possibly this
is partly due to the fact that the
play is located in Old Spain, and is
about a courtier's plot-not a very
brilliant one either. One of the
strong scenes is in a room of the
royal palace. where Don Caesar, the
nobleman. lays his sword at the feet
of his king, loyalty to his monarch
being stronger than his personal
wrongs. However. 1t is doubtful If
an American audience is fully ap-
preciative of this sort of devotion.
and probably some last night would
have preferred seeing his royal high
ness thrown out of the window.
Nevertheless the play was immense
ly enjoyed, and curtain calls were
several times given MT Hansford
and his leading lady.

GREAT EASTERN OPENING.
Pendleton's New Department Store
Now Doing Business.

The Great Eastern Department
Store held its formal opening of its
new home in the Schmidt block and
an animated scene was presented
from the time the doors were thrown
open to the close.
AT times the crowd became so
dense that it was with difficulty that
they moved about.
The new quarters of the Great
Eastern are modern in every partic-
ular and much skill was displayed in
the arrangement of the various de-
partments in the magnificent room.
On entering the store the general ap-
pearance is most pleasing as the ar
tistic work of the painters in harm
onizing the colors is perfect, while
the carpentering is neat and carries
out the idea of the architect to a
nicely and while giving much space
in the balconies, does not interfere
with the view on the main floor
To the left of the main door is the
dress goods section, occupying the
entire side, while in the rear of the
store is the shoe department. On the
right of the entrance is the gents
furnishings and next comes the hat
section. and the clothing. In the
center of the room is the notions.
Going up the stairs into the balcony

a beautiful array of carpets, rugs,
portiers, lace curtains, while to the

line of goods added to the store. The
left balcony is given TO the ladies'
ready-to-wear goods, and here are
placed cloaks. suits, jackets, silk
waists, etc.
The reserve stock is kept in the

Henry Heppner was well known to
the pioneers of this place. who knew
him when Morrow county was a por-
he came TO this country. and for sew
eral years ran pack trains from Una
tilla Landing to the mines of South
ern Idaho and Eastern Oregon. A.
w. Nye, librarian of the Commercial
club. was one OF those who knew him
in those days There was money to
be made in packing in those times.
and ii was in this way that the fOun-
dation to what later became a small
fortune. was laid by Mr.. Heppner.
After a few years of running pack
trains a store was established by Mr..
Heppner in La Grande, and he re-
manned there until the early '70s,
when he moved to Willow Creek.
where Heppner now stands. and
started the first store at that place.
His firm was known as Heppner 4
Maddox. and when the town was
named in 1875, il was the only bus
iness house there except a black
smith shop, stable and drug store.
Mayor Matlock was an acquaint-
ance of the deceased for many years,
and was grieved to learn of his death
this morning. From him it was learn
ed that Mr.. Heppner had no family,
nut that he has a sister now in Hepp-
ner. Mrs. Henry Blackman. Philip
Heppner. a brother to the dead man,
suicided about IL years ago.
Henry Heppner was of Hebrew de-
scent, and came to this country from
Germany. He was a man of strong
convictions and one who it was hard
to move when once his mind was
made up. He was a democrat i'm pol
itics, and hard and fast believer in
that faith. However, ne never sought
office for himself. though he would
use his influence TO secure the ad-
vancement of his friends
Mr.. Heppner was successful bus
mess man. and NE is supposed at his
death to have been worth $4,000 or
$4,000. He was a prominent mem
ber of the Masonic order.

New developments have appeared
in the F. W. Schmidt bankruptcy
case. and from the looks of things
at present the S16.5OO loss that 1t has
been supposed the creditors would be
forced to stand may not be necessary.
This new version is caused by the
discovery that F. w, Schmidt & Co.

Roderick Grant, OF Portland, is him
self personally responsible for the full
amount of the Indebtedness of the

stituted by Stillman & Pierce as at
torneys for Henry Kopittke against
A. Roderick Grant and F. w.
schmidt. partners doing business as
a firm under the name OF f. w.

from December l, 1904, together with
the costs of the suit.
All companies Incorporated 10

afternoon failed to show any record

bushels of rice this season.
The success of these rice crops has

TO CROSS OCEAN
TRUSTS PROPOSE TO ESTABLISH
SUBSIDIARY FACTORIES IN
EUROPE.
Uncertain Tariff and Fear of Re-
taiatory Moves Abroad Cause of
the New Plan.

Chicago, Sept 23.-Representatives
of the international Harvester compa-
ny have secured options on sites in
Southern Sweden with view to
huilding factories from which the
trade of Northern Europe can be sup
piled.
The work being done in Sweden, it
is announced by General Manager
Funk of the harvester corporation. is
being duplicated in other European
capitals.
Uncertainty as to American tariff
conditions, with the possibility of re-
taliatory tariffs against American
manufacturers being generally adopt
ed abroad. is given as the reason for
planning subsidiary factories in Eu-
,ope. Other big American industrial
establishments, it is said, are to fol
low the lead of the harvester combine.
"Conditions in the United States
are such," said Mr. Funk, "that the
International Harvester company has
been forced to protect it's interests in
Europe, and is planning the possible
erection of plant in Sweden. l may
say there is a possibility, though at
present remote, that the company
will build plants in all the European
countries"
1t is asserted that patrons of the
International company in Sweden
have joined with the company's rep
resentatives abroad in protest to the
government against threatened tariff
changes unfavorable to the continued
importation there of American ma
chinery. The protests have been an
swered by the officials pointing, it is
said, to the discriminatory protective
tariffs in force in the United States
= An official of the International COM
pany, who declined to permit the use
of his name, asserted the harvester
company is not alone in it's prospect
ing in European fields.
"a large number of the biggest cor
porations in the United States are
having Investigations similar to ours
made in Europe now," he said. "They
are preparing for a possible general
raise of European tariffs against
American goods"

RAPE FIEND KILLED.
Jim Young, Negro, Shot Down Near
Monticello.

Chased hy an angry posse of three
citizens of Monticello, Jim Young, a
negro charged with assaulting Mrs.
Hammond at that place, opened fire
upon his pursuers, who returned the
fire and killed the negro.
A dispatch to the Walter Cotter ex-
change in this city Saturday gave
the only particulars obtainable here
of the tragedy that eliminated in
Young's forfeiture of his life. 1t is
said that he assaulted a white woman
named Mrs. Hammond at Wilmar.
Three citizens of Monticello got onto
the negro's trail, and tracked him to a
point three and a half miles from that
city, where they called upon him to
halt. No sooner than they did so,
Young opened fire upon them. His
fire was returned, and the negro was
killed.
