COULD NOT RETURN.
Frank Smith Has Another Month
of Service In The Navy
Still to Serve.

Another long month must elapse b.
fore Frank Smith the apprentice hos
pital steward at the Marine Barracks,
can call his time his own. With every
reason TO believe that today would
end his term of enlistment. Smith yes
terday was shocked TO learn that he
had exactly one month more of time.
AS stated exclusively in the Capital
some time since, Smith fell hair
TO a large sum of money in
France. He had resisted the impOr-
tunities of his father to desert and
come home to see him and the grateful
old gentleman, glorying in the honesty
of his son, made him a present OF a
large sum.
Smith, il was stated, intended to
leave Annapolis as soon as his term
was DID and go home TO his father,
whom he has not seen for over tenyears.
Yesterday, still of the opinion that
mis- term would expire today, he pack
ed and Fastened tight his ditty bag
for its joruney across the ocean. Then
it was that he was notified that in
going over the records it was found
that his term did not expire until
April 8, one month hence. Smith was
bitterly disappointed, as he was look
ing forward with great satisfaction to
the day when he could set sail for his
old home.
Last night. however, he was in a
very philosophical frame of mind and
said that he would try and make the
bestof the situation. Just as soon as
his term expires he will go to France
and renew old acquaintance. After
spending some time there he will re-
turn to this country and engage work
on a newspaper as a sketch artist.
Whether or not Smith carries away
with him an Annapolis young lady as
his bride remains to be seen, but it is
thought that he has something of a
very interesting nature held in reserve
to be sprung at the last moment.

board of seagoing officers be appoint
ed to investigate the cha ngesfand
omissions that can be made in the
course at that institution without ser.
iousIy crippling the work.
The recommendation of the Superin-
tendent is due to the fact that for sew

of midshipmen. Some aleviation of
the work, the Superintendent urges.

County Judge H. ]. Bean will leave
for Portland tonight to make arrange
ments for the construction of the
Umatilla county exhibit booth to be
erected in the agricultural building
at the Lewis and Clark fair.
The exhibit committee from the
Commercial association met with
Judge Bean last night and drew final
plans for the booth and contract for
its construction will be let at once.
The booth will be 2OxS5 feet in size,
12 feet high, with table is inches in
width around the three outsides of the
booth, and exhibit shelves arranged
through the entire length of the
structure. An open passageway 80
inches in width will be left inside the
booth for the convenience of the su-
perintendent and those who may be
needed to place the exhibits on the
shelves.
On this outside table will be placed
plates of fresh fruit and other delicate
exhibits, while the heavier exhibits
will occupy the elevated shelves in the
interior. At the top of the elevated
shelves will be a top shelf, two feet
in width running the entire length of
the booth. on which will be placed
sacks of flour, sheaves of grain and
other exhibits for ornamentation and
exhibition purposes.
The booth will be constructed on
the massive Roycroft plan, the IL
pillars supporting it to be 10 inches
square, and other framing timbers in
proportion. On top of the booth,
which will be substantially built, will
be placed an Indian tepee, to be Sc
cured by Major Moorhouse for ex-
hibit purposes. This tepee will be a
smoked, grimed, real tepee from the
| reservation, and it is thought that it
will be very attractive feature,
placed on top of the booth in full view
of every visitor to the agricultural
pavilion.
On the massive pillar supports,
Moorhouse photographs will be placed
| in profusion, the entire pillars to be
covered with them If possible and in
convenient corner Indian robes,
Umatilla county newspapers and other
exhibits will be used
A mantel of Weston brick will also
adorn one corner of the booth and
the resources of the county will be
fully and tastefully arranged for dis
play. et.
Collector of Exhibits S. H. Forshaw
will be in the field continually until
the fair opens, and an excellent agri-
cultural exhibit will be In place by
the opening day. A superintendent
will be placed in charge of the exhibit
and Umatilla county will enter the
contest Of counties with a view to Sc
curing a prize, also with a view to
securing return of one-half of the
cost of the exhibit, as offered by the
management of the fair, where the
exhibit reaches $1,000 in cost and is
in charge of a superintendent.

AS result of murderous attempt
on his life made by his partner, John
Rodgers, ]. F. Bradford is now in the
hospital with his head badly slashed
and the end of one finger gone.
Rodgers and Bradford were both
prisoners in the city Jail, having been
run in last night Bradford and /.
NJ Black were arrested early in the
evening for peddling jewelry and
Rodgers was locked up later on, being
caught in the act of giving alcohol
to the other two inside the Jail by
means of tin funnel.
All parties were searched by the
night officers when they were locked
up, and among the articles found
were three razors and four watches.
In the box with the latter was an in
voice for the stuff made out to ]. F.
Bradford, La Grande. Consequently.
1t is presumed the men had purchas-
ed the Jewelry from some jobbing con-
Germ and were peddling without a IL
cennse.
The story of the Indian prisoners is
that the two men first became en-
gagged In quarrel and a scuffle over
some difference between them. They
then lay down to sleep, and soon
thereafter Rodgers is said to have
gotten up and attacked his former
partner with a razor which he took
from his high top shoe. In the mix
up Bradford was cut from the left
eye back through his left ear, along
the top of his head, and the end Of
his right middle finger was cut off.
A slash down his back cut his cloth
Ing. but made only a scratch on his
body.
No outcry was made by any of the
prisoners, and that the fight had oc-
cured was first learned by some boys
who looked into the Jail as they pass
ed. They then saw Bradford covered
with blood, and Immediately told Of
ficer Coffman of the fact. The latter
with Deputy Glenn Bushee, at once
went to the jail and removed the in
jured man. DIR. Cole was summoned
and with the assistance of DR.. Lieu
allen Bradford's wounds were dress
ed, and he was taken to the hospital.
Rodgers and Black were taken
from the city lookup to the county
Jail for safer keeping. Rodgers is
said to be hard looking citizen, and
1t is the belief that he intended to
kill his partner.
