John Gideon, the Idaho prisoner
under arrest charged with robbing the
Warren stage last summer, was taken
through Pendleton this morning on
his way to northern Idaho. He was
under the charge of deputy United
States marshal and a guard, and the
three arrived here on No. 3. They
left again at 9 o'clock on the Spokane
train. While in town Gideon was
placed in the county Jail for safe keep
ing.
The crime for which Gideon is be-
ing held is that of having held up the
Warren stage and robbed the mail and
messengers. About $500 in money was
secured. and also s1400 in gold bui-
lion. which was being shipped out
from the mines. This bullion, it Is
said. Gideon afterwards shipped in
box of clothing TO friend at Ontario
and the gold was then hidden in the
ground near a tree, beside the snake
river, where It was discovered a few
weeks ago.
Gideon was arrested several month!

with having held up the mail, aht
since that time has been imprisoned

United States court. He is now oeini
taken to Lewiston for that purpose
AS the offense which Gideon commit

eral law, it is probable that he will b.

Trial Crop Of IL Acres Proves Great
Success and Next Year 200 Acres
VIII BE Planted-Mr. Lucas VIII
Furnish Free Seed to Any One
Who viii Plant 1t and VIII Then
Purchase the Crop Next Fall.

on next Monday the first Umatilla
county made brooms ever placed up
on the market will be received in this
city and thereafter will be on sale at
several leading grocery stores in this
city.
F. G. Lucas of Athena, has started
a broom factory at that place and
will work up the product of IL acres
of broom corn grown about four miles
from Athena this season. The corn
secured from this crop will be suf-
ficient to make about 200 dozen
brooms which will be placed on the
market in every town in the county.
Mr.. Lucas is an experienced broom
maker, having been engaged in the
business In Kansas before coming
west He says the soil and climate
of the Athena district are highly
adapted to this crop and next year
he will endeavor to plant 200 acres
near Athena, If he can secure the land.
He will also furnish broom corn
seed free of charge. to any one who
will plant it and then he will purchase
their crop at the highest market price
next fall.
At the present time he employs
| but three people in making up the
small amount OF corn on hand, but II
| he can secure 200 acres as he hopes
to do. he will employ about 25 people
and will establish "A brush factory in
connection with the broom factory.
All the coarser product will be made
up into scrubbing brushes and coarse
brooms for warehouses and stable
use. while the finer quality will be
used for the ordinary household
broom and he would also manufacture
a very fine quality of whsk broom.
The broom corn grown at Athena
this season was a fine fibre and ma
tured well and there is no reason. ac-
cording to Mr.. Lucas, why this county
should not produce one Of the finest
grades of brooms in the market.
He invites farmers In different
parts of the county to plant small

NATURE SPARES


What fortunate provision of nature
It is. that deprives the rose of mental
suffering; for how poignant would be its
grief to discover. in the height of its
blooming glory, that a canker fed at its
heart, and that its beauty and fragrance
were doomed forever. Nature always
spares the suffering; she is a veritable
store-house OF pleasing rewards, for
those who seek her aid. In the years
gone by falling hair and grayness have
cast gloom over the lives of thousands
of young women. but thanks to the in
vestigations OF scientists the true cause
OF hair destruction Is now known to be
germ or parasite that burrows into
the hair follicles. Newbro's Herpicide
absolutely destroys this germ, thus
permitting the hair to grow as ma
tUre intended. Sold by leading drug
glsts. Send 10c in stamps for sample

Appearance of Unthrift,
(BiddefOrd JOurnal.O

NbluueIOrd JOurnaL)
In riding through almost any extern
sive section of Maine, either by railroad
or over the highways. one is ant to
be disagreeably impressed by the far
too common indications of an unthrifti-
ness which may be more apparent than
real. Maine, as a whole, is undoubted-
~ Il thrifty state. but there are too
many villages and rural neighbOrhoods
where the general appearance of the
houses and their surroundings gives
the impression Of poverty rather than
OF prosperity. Houses are suffering for
lack of paint and the yards and lawns
are burdened with the fiotsam and Jet
sam OF busy or careless life. In a
state where large proportion of the
income of the inhabitants is derived
from the entertainment of transient
residents such conditions should not be
allowed to exist. If desire for neat
ness and an appearance of thrift is not
inherent in the people. then we should
assume virtue which we do not DOS
sess In the hope that in time it may be-
come second nature. There are MANY
villages in Maine where few hundred
dollars worth of paint judiciously ap-
piled would not only be a good invest
ment from an aesthetic point of view
but such renovation would increase
the real value of property many thous-
ands of dollars. Leaving out of the
question poor and Indifferent highways
which are in many cases a disgrace To
the state, 1t should be the aspiration of
every neighborhood to acquire n repu-
tatlon Tor neatness. And this reputa-
ton can be acquired at very little act
uai expense. In some western villages
wnere the people have no incentive like
that which should inspire the peo-
pie OF Maine in making a favorable
impression upon the stranger within
their gates. the people organize under
some form of village association and
choose a village caretaker who. for
fixed monthly wages. engages to keen
the streets. sidewalks, lawns and va
cant lots free from weeds, litter and
the unsightly rubbish that is so often
no mans business to care for because
II Is every mans business. This
method has been tested by years of ex-
perienre. and the western papers are
enthusiastic in its praise. The rule of
putting the best foot forward is better
than no rule at all. even though this
method may suggest the suspicion that
there Is an unsightly hole in the shoe
and stocking on the foot that is loft
| behind. To make the front ward at
tractive, even though the back ward
may be the dumping place of misceI-
ianeous rubbish is better than to have
poth back and front yards Uttered. In
many cases this appearance Of unthr;ft
Is the result Of gross carelessness. mr. a
lack Of appreciation of the yalne ~
| minor details.

VOICES OF THE PRESS.
Beware of the Water.
washington Starr

wv dSllilStou quar-
This Is the drowning accident season.
At the seashOre, on the river, at tn :
lakes. there are abundant chances for
the reckless to risk their lives, and the
result is a steady stream of death re-
ports. Now it is the f0olhardy SWIM
mer who. ventures beyond the lines oe
safety at one of the beaches. forgetting
that there must be return trip, ignor-
ing the undertOw or the chance Of
cramps In the colder waters off shore.
Or 1t may be the participating SWIM
mer. who frolics with others, ducking
children or showing off by diving from
spiles. Or perhaps it is the bOat-rock-
er. who sends others to death by en-
gaging iE that criminal practice Of
'fooling" in frail craft. Or perhaps
it is the amateur yachtsman or canoe
list. who is not content with stalking his
own life upon his ineyperiencc and III
whims OF the weather. but must drag
others into danger. Or maybe it is the
unskilled river swimmer, who steps into
hole or is swept off hy the tide. or
simply sinks from sheer fright and lack
of experience in the water.
1t should be the invariaDle rule of all
who play in or with the wafer to take
no chances beyond the single chance OF
venturing into or upon Il necessarily
dangerous element. At best there IL
always risk. But in boating this risk
can be minimiZed by going carefully,
retiring promptly before threatening
clouds. attempting no hazardous land
ings and keeping we'll out Of the way
OF steamboats,. In bathing choose al
ways place which is brown to be
we'll bOttOmed, free from holes or bad
rocks and with gentle slope of beach.
Keep out of swift tides and undertows
And, above all, don't stay in too long,
for the cramps are most likely to come
to muscles that are tired.
Parents are often culpably indifferent
about the company their children keep
in the summer time, or, If not indiffer-
ant. incapable Of preventing serious
risks. Girls are allowed to go boating
in parties without care as to the
capabilities of the Young men in
charge. The list of sailbOat accidents
due to the lack of skill Of the managers
Of the craft is very long.
The waters afford great pleasure to
those who know how to take them, and
those pleasures are not increased by
adding to the risk.
