MARTIN CASE APPEALED.
Judge Ellis Refuses Certificate of
Probable Cause.

This afternoon notice of an appeal
was made in behalf of Grover Mar
tin by his attorney, Colonel ]. H.
Raley the ground being that the
court had erred in giving of instruc-
tions to the jury. Also, Judge Ellis
was asked to issue a certificate of
probable cause. so as to permit of
Martins retention here instead of at
the penitentiary. However, this re-
quest was denied by the judge. Con-
sequently, the certificate will have to
be secured from one of the judges of
the supreme court, or Martin will be
committed to the penitentiary and
held there pending the decision of
the supreme court.
In speaking afterwards of the re-
fusal of the court to grant the GER
tificate of probable cause, Colonel
Raley declared 1t an unusual action,
and seemed confident that the certi-
ficate could be secured from one of
the members of the supreme court
Should a certificate of probable
cause be secured, Martin may be re-
tanned in the county Jail here, or ad-
mitted to bail at the option of the
SOuIl' ne young pilSOleI ShOWeu
considerable disappointment this
afternoon when the judge refused to
grant the request of the attorney for
the defense. He was accompanied to
the court room by his father, who
came down on the afternoon train
today to consult in regard to the APP
peal.
The failure to secure the certificate
of probable cause from Judge Ellis
will not affect the taking Of an ap-
peal to the supreme court, but sim
ply pertains to his keeping pending
such appeal, consequently the Martin
case will be again fought out at the
November term of the supreme court.

f. NJ. Croisan, of Salem, who was
here yesterday and left on the night
train for home, came for the purpose
or consulting with the district attor-
ney and others regarding the case of
Delbert Stone, against whom there
is an indictment in this county.
Stone, or Winslow, as his real name
is said to be, is the son of good pa
rents living near Salem, but while
here a few years ago passed two
forged checks, one on James Spence
and one on Gus Lafontain, after
which he disappeared. He was not
located until few months ago, when
1t was learned that he was in Salem.
However, when Sheriff Taylor went
for his prisoner he found on his ar
rival in the capital that his man had
been committed to the asylum, hay-
ing been adjudged insane. Now he is
apparently to be discharged from
that institution, and it is the desire
of his relatives to have the case here
dismissed against him.
Mr.. Croisan was told by District
Attorney Phelps that if the parties
who suffered by the young mans ac.
tions here were repaid, and also all
of the costs of the case met and a
petition asking for the dismissal OF
the charge be presented to him BY
! those who made the charges against
Stone, the matter would be dropped
However, these things have not yet
been done, though it is thought thai
they will be and thus prevent the
arrest of Stone, when he is released
from the asylum.

BACKING PENDLEToN TEAM.
Walla Walla Paper Tells of Money
Bet OH Coming Ball Games.

This mornings Walla Walla Union
has the following sensational story
concerning $500 of Pendleton money
sent there to back the Pendleton ball
team in the coming series of games
to be played with Walla Walla on
July 3 and 4:
Late yesterday afternoon a group
of Pendleton sports forwarded to the
city 5000 to say that their ball team
would win the majority of the games
to be played with the Fruit Pickers
on the Sd and 4th.
The money was quickly covered,
and IL was reported that the man
agement of the Fruit Pickers got a
good share of it.
Why anybody in the town on
Umatilla creek would be so rash as
to want to back their ball nine against
the Fruit Pickers can't very well be
understood here, and that such is the
case has caused quite a stir among
the local sports.
Some say that the Pendletonians
have bought for short time the
Ogden team, formerly in the Pacific
league, and are coming here on the
Fourth to do all kinds of things. In
this case 1t is up to the management
of the Fruit Pickers to be wide
awake.
Manager O'Connor twirls his mus
tache and smiles with confidence in
spite of the wild rumors that came
into the city from Pendleton yester-
day. He said last night:
"The Fruit Pickers will beat the
Indians In the series of games about
to be played in this city. I've the
greatest confidence in my team of
hickory swingers Pendleton may
have devised ways and means of get
ting a good team together, but have
no fear regarding the outcoming of
the series. 1 can't see it any other
way"

Under the state law regarding auto
mobiles, which was passed at the las;
session of the legislature, it is neces-
sary for owners of autos, among other
things, to have their machines pro-

this God-forsaken country; but I'll
surely kill you in minute!" cried Brad
shaw again.
He was indeed right when he said that
English people did not understand getting
shot. Leigh did not realize the peril
of pistol pointed at him by man who
meant to shoot, and he ran forward like
bull. Bradshaw, cool as ice, took a
quiet aim at his antagonists body. He
was going to hit him in the solar plexus-
that spot beloved of the prize fighter If
you hit a man there he goes down, and
in addition there is always the pleasing
possibility of cutting his spine in two
And so Bradshaw pulled the trigger of his
pistol. The hammer dropped, but no
report followed. He pulled the trigger
again, but the hammer did not answer.
That beautiful thirty eight gun, I"
which had faithfully killed two men, had
gone out of order at one of the most
crucial moments of his life.
Bradshaw lodged away alertly, still
pulling the trigger in desperation, though
he knew well that it was hopeless to expect
any result. Then he flung the useless
weapon at his adversary and bolted.
1t was not a retreat, but merely a
strategic retirement. He could see clear
ly that he must be worsted in hand-to-
hand fight with the gigantic poacher, and
he was looking around for some weapon
with which to equalize matters a little.
He lighted presently on gnarled stick,
fair enough cudgel, and returned to the
fray with set teeth. Leigh sent the
disabled revolver spinning through the air
to him and greeted this new attack
with a burst of Homeric laughter.
Don't do it, MASTER" he cried.
you're rare plucked TN, but there's
nobody on all the border that can stand
against me, old as | am"
Isn't there?" said Bradshaw, dan
gerously calm AZ don't belong here.
The only border | know is the Mexican
border. and down there we see things
through to finish. -~~
He was still advancing, and Leigh,
realizing that in the matter of activity he
was at a serious disadvantage, stood
firm, watching for an opening. He be-
gan to understand that this lean, wiry
young man was formidable antagonist
Still Bradshaw came on, SO slowly that
the suspense became wearing-ten feet,
nine feet, only six feet.
Look here, sir" began the poacher.
Bradshaw sprang forward, his stick up
lifted to strike. 1t was just the sort of
foolishness Leigh looked for, and while
one arm went up like flash to ward the
blow, the other was swung forward to
clutch the American in a grip that would
hold him helpless as child.
But the blow did not fall as Leigh
expected. The heavy stick swished
through the air, but the parrying arm
was untouched, and an instant after
ward Leigh was rolling on the ground in
uncomfortable agony from the swift
stroke that had fallen on his knee-cap.
AS Bradshaw explained afterward,
there was no fair fight !" nonsense about
him. He knew that in moment Leigh
would be up again, envenomed by his
sufferings, and for that reason more
formidable than ever. So he coolly
stepped over the PROSTATE man and dealt
him a vicious blow on the head, not
extremely particular whether it might
prove fatal or not.

ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. with a
heavy heart Russia today observed
Christmas. The day was particularly
family fete. The trials of the war
and losses at the front had brought
sorrow and mourning to countless
homes and the usual rejoicing was alb

closed until Tuesday, and intense cold
kept the people indoors. All the or

was a large Christmas tree for the
children, but there was no elaborate

the men engaged in the excavating
work of a new railway terminal in
Forty-second street have disclosed d
new method of temperance work in this
city. Ever since the work began
students and faculty of the Bible

have had their attention distracted
from their studies by the sight of the
laborers getting i'm line promptly at the
stroke of II o'clock and starting for
beer. There are numerous saloons
and two breWeries near by, SO tempta-
tions We're plentiful.
A crusade against the liquor sellers
in the shape of speeches was discussed
and quickly put aside as useless and the
students set themselves TO devise some
more efficient form of fortifylng the
men against temptation to quaff beer.
Some one suggested substitute and
coffee was chosen. Great quantities,
steaming hot, was carried among the
workmen as they quit for lunch, and a
great falling off i'm the patronage Of the
saloons and breweries in the neighbor-
hood has resulted. The faculty and
students express much qualification
over the success Of the venture.
