ROYAL NEIGHB0RS' JUBILEE
(CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE.)

with Japanese lanterns and long
ribbons of white and purple, the
Royal Neighbor colors. A more
sumptuous banquet has seldom
been served in Rat!ldrum and re-
fleets great credit upon those who
had charge of its arrangement.
Various social games were play
ed in the lodge room adjoining,
until late hour.
The Royal Neighbors are to be
congratulated upon the skill with
which the celebration was planned
and for their untiring efforts in
carrying it out in a manner so
highly creditable to the order,
which is one of the leading socie-
ties represented in Rathdrum; and
thanks are due 70 those who par
ticipated in the program and con-
tributed to the evenings entertain
ment.

Live Red lobeter,

Billingsgatc fish market the other
day saw prodigy Of naturc-a live
lobster of scarlet hue. The vericst
cockney knows that this color is
usually acquired by the painful
process of boiling, the natural color
of a lobster being blush black.
In presence Of such marvel Bill
lingsgate for once could find no ex-
preston strong enough to show
its establishment. At last the old
est hand in the market gave his
opinion OF the mystery. ''rhat lob
stcr was knowing" he said. Gle
knew when he was caught he'd be
boiled, and to escape boiling he
turned red of his own accord"
Only once before has a red lobster
come to Billingsgatc, and that was
fifteen years ago. lie went to the
British muscum.-London Mirror.

The Way He Put Il.

1Iamlin Garland has settled down
in New York for the winter in an
apartment on the beautiful heights
of Morningsidc avenue, near the
huge, partially erected Cathedral Of
st. John. On being asked by a
western friend where he was staying
Mr.. Garland replied: "Ivc holcd up
for the winter on the sunny side Of
that big butte where the ruins of
the big church are. It's little
shack, but gaudy. 1t has a lookout
on little green grass and a few

Discipline in the Russian army is
confined to the essentials very strict
~ and does not concern itself about
things not Immediately connected
with the movements OF troops and
their conduct in action, according
10 o. X. Davis in Everybody's Mag
azine. They will fight magnificent
ly, but for the rest they arc a law
less, unkempt, slouchy, dirty lot,
whose clothes seem perpetually un-
washed and whose hands are in ev-
erything that is not their own.
There were dozen different
breeds of fighting men in the Pc
king relief column, and among all
of them ! saw instances Of unpro-
voked cruelty and savagery. With
the others such cases were sporadic,
but among the Russians discipline
does not seem to undertake to pro-
vide against that sort of thing. /
never saw an officer make any at
tempt to stop Russian soldier
from such work, but l saw one
spank man for letting a horse fall
down.

Of the guard that was cscorting me

loot shop and let me 90 on and
find my way as best / could without

1t begins to look as though
Japan was the most terrible OF
military powers; When q whole
people seem to become at once
indifferent to death and for days
and nights can fight without
rest or sufficient food, it seems
clear that the only way to heai
such q power is by annihilation
and there are forty milliens OF
them. Soldiers say that the
most exhaustive work in the
world is that OF the soldier in
action. When reaction comes
from the toll and excitement OF
battle, there follows prostration.
But there seems to be no reac-
ton with the Japanese. They
seem to be under a perpetual
battle ecstacy. With Russia
disposed of, what then? Surely
the Brown men have become a
worlds Government. There has
been nothing like them in mod
ern times, never anything III
ancient times, unless old Rome
in her first savagery was like
them,
Surely they are q terrible race
md their dominance is an omen
of dread to the world. Good

Lady Godiva is the latest favorite
Of history to be relcgatcd to the
realm of mythology. In her new
book on the carls of Warwick Lady
Warwick says that while Lady Go
diva undoubtedly existed, appearing
in tho ''Doomsday Book" as Godeya,
it is impossible that she should ever
have taken her famous ride through
Coventry, for her husband, Earl
Leofric, was Of blessed memory and
worthy of all praise, instead Of be-

Restina on His Laurels.

The body Of the late German
playwright, Gustav Won Moscr, was
burned, according to his directions,
in the crematory Mt Gotha. Many
years ago Moser had ordered at a
glass factory miniature coffin des-
tined to hold his ashes some dav.
Whenever he received laurel
wreath for one of his works he
burned one of its leaves and put the
ashes in the glass coffin. "Thus,"
he used to say, Il shall ut last really
rest on my laurels."

OUTLOOK GOOD
FOR INTERIOR
SO SAYS AN OBSERVER
OF WIDE EXPERIENCE.
Man States That the Itange
Is Fine, Stock i'm Excellent COndi-
ton and an Advancing Sheep Mar
ket-F'our Hundred Carloads of
Sheep VIII Be Shipped From Shan
iko This Season-Heavy Immigra-
ton Into Interior Counties.

Conditions throughout the interior
are very bright so far this season, ac-
cording TO w. H. Garrett. the well
known grocery salesman. Mr.. Gar
rett has made the Eastern Oregon,
including the interior territory, for
many years, and is in a position to
know what he is talking about. In
speaking last night to the East Ore
gonian, he said:
THE weather has been very favor
able for the stock industry during the
past season, and the grass is now
good. Consequently sheep and cattle
are in good shape for the spring mar
ket. The sheep market is also up
and the money that will be derived
from the sale of sheep and wool will
mean a great deal to the merchants
of the interior as well as to the stock
man. Last year the money thus de-
rived was the salvation of the coun-
try for very few cattle sales were
made, owing to the poor prices. This
year much the same situation exists.
MANY contracts for sheep after
shearing are already being made at
Shaniko. l have been told that 100,-
600 head of sheep. or 400 carloads,
win be shipped from Shaniko this
spring. The sales are mostly of year
lings, and the price varies from $2.10
to $2.50."
According to Mr.. Garrett there is
great influx of new people into
Crook county this spring. as a result
of the opening of the irrigation lands
there. The stages are always crowd
ed, and many wagons loaded with
families and their household goods
are to be seen. The latter being
people who are going there to stay.
The towns of Rend, Deschutes, Cline
Falls and Laidlaw are all growing
rapidly, all being located adjoining
irrigated lands. Nothing but the ex-
tension of the railroad into Crook
county is needed to bring about a
great development in that section.

Pendleton. March 81.

Editor East Oregonian:--Your Serve
you right" editorial in last nights
paper is timely, and whether intend
ed or not is a just rebuke to every
citizen who places no value on influ-
ences which have to do with the up
lifting of citizenship and home.
Would it not be well at this time,
however, to inquire, Are not COM
munity gambling and liquor drinking
matters of sentiment and education ?"
Is it not a fact that the sheriff and
prosecuting attorney of this county
together with our municipal offic-
ers read Alright the sentiment and
education of the community when
they act as though forgetful of their
oath of office and leave unmolested
gambling joints on Court and Main
streets, where men and boys are al
lowed to gamble nightly to the detri-
ment of families, and the anguish of
mothers.
Cheap, tawdry daubs of paint,
bearing the semblanes of a nude wo-
man, hung over bars where besotted
men guzzle cheese and grow drunk
with booze, hung in plain view of
passersby, and for an excuse this is
called "art." Such an excuse as
this, if these individuals should at
tempt to send copies through the
mails, would last as long as snow
ball in H, and yet i'm this COM
munity of schools and homes this
kind of thing is allowed to exist.
What are the preachers Of this city
doing, receiving their bread and
butter for preaching Christ and Him
cruicified, and yet standing OPEN
mouthed and allowing these things to
occur. In making open fight on these
conditions they have no prestige to
lose, no financial loss to suffer by go
ing two or three at a time, taking
along the smiling and forgetful sher-
iff, and making a wholesale arrest
and not stopping at that. but keeping
at it until they make it Improbable
for such dives to exist. If the offic-
ers refuse then put it up to the cir
cult judge to do his duty by these
officers, and you will soon awaken a
sentiment that will make these peo-
pie at least, be decent.
Respectfully,
CITIZEN.

r. Nj. Lyons, the well known mer-
chant, died last evening at $50 of
heart disease at his residence. For
several weeks the health of Mr.. Ly-
ons had been bad, and he had been
under "A physicians care. However,
he was able to move about to some
extent, and was down town yesterday
for short time. In the evening he
was seated on a couch talking to his
grandchildren, when he was stricken
with heart failure and expired in a
few minutes.
Up to this time the hour for the
funeral has not been set, but it will
probably occur tomorrow afternoon
from the family residence. Deceased
was member of the knights of
Pythias, and the services will be
under the auspices of the local lodge
of that order.
f. NJ. Lyons was born in Ghent
Carroll county, Kentucky, on March
rs, 1912. At an early age he moved
with his parents to Louisville, KY,
and from there to Missouri in 1864.
y VI S'NNiui yNthio ilC wac III ptsi-
ness at st. Joseph. In 1873 he was
married to Miss Josie Chrisman. He
is survived by his wife and three
children. Two of these, Mrs. j. e.
Rubedew and Miss Mary Lyons, live
here, while a son, w. C, Lyons, re-
sides at Dayton, Wash.
When he first came West Mr.. Ly-
one located in the Palouse country
and came here in 1901. For several
years he was the proprietor of the
st. Joe Store in the Rem building
on Court street until compelled by
failing health to give up the man
agement of the business. He then
established a store at Hatton, Wash,
and has been there for some time
since until his return to this place
several weeks ago.
Funeral on Sunday.
This afternoon it is announced
that the funeral will be held on Sun
day afternoon commencing at
o'clock. and that the services will be
held at the Christian church, OF
which the deceased was lifelong
member. They will ne conducted by
Rev. II. N. Brooks. pastor of the
church.

Washington, March 31.-Dr. Jose
de Jesus Paul, special representative
of President Castro, had an inter-
view today with the president re-
specting the issues that have arisen
between Venezuela and the United
States. DIR. Paul appears to believe
that these issues might be settled by
a change i'm the American legation in
Caracas in view of the strained rela-
tions between President Castro and
Mr.. Bowen. He is awaiting the text
of the communication from President
Castro to the American minister rel
atipe to the arbitration proposal,
which document is EN- route to wash
ington.
As an impression apparently pre-
walls to some extent, not only in Ven
ezuela, but i'm this country, that Min
lister Bowen has incurred the i'll Will
of President Castro by an excess of
zeal in the presentation of the Amer
lean claims against Venezuela, it
may be stated that official inquiry
from Washington has developed the
fact that Mr.. Bowen merely presented
to the Venezuelan government the
precise instructions sent to him from
the state department relative to ar
bitration that he did not add to or
take from those instructions in the
slightest degree, but in fact effaced
himself. so the fact is that the state
department and not Mr.. Bowen is
RESPONSIBLE for this presentment
which has so stirred the Venezuelan
government.

NIEGoRDEN HELD FOR MURDER
No Question About His Shooting His
Wife Near Nyssa.

Nyssa, Ore, March 31.-H. Megor-
den, who shot and killed his wife
Wednesday night near here at their
home, is in Jail at Vale, held by the
verdict of the coroner's jury to await
trial on "A charge of murder. The
verdict denominated the crime as
wilful murder.
That Megorden had contemplated
uXorcide for two or three days is evil
denced by his actions. Sunday he
either hid or destroyed every photo
graph of himself. He is heavy
featured man, swarthy and probably
of Mexican origin. He is smooth
shaven and feet inches tall.
Just before the tragedy Megorden
shot three times at his 15-year-old
son, who had interfered in a quarrel
between Mr.. and Mrs. Megorden. The
fourth bullet killed the woman and
the fifth was in the revolver when
Megorden surrendered it. The boy
and his little sister put their mothers
body in a wheelbarrow and wheeled
ii to a neighbor's after the father
left.

London, March 31.-Baron Suye-
matsu, who came here a year ago to
negotiate the Japanese loan, said to-
day:
America has requested Japan to
elucidate her position In case of cer-
tain eventualities looking towards a
stoppage of the war. Japan COM
Piled, although we have not announc-
ed our complete peace terms because
these have not been drawn up, and
we have no intention of announcing
them until Russia makes direct over
lures.
But one thing is settled; if Rus
sia wants peace she must be prepared
to pay indemnity. Unless she agrees
to this, 1t is useless to talk about the
stoppage of the war"
