East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1905-02-07

w. c. White. now a resident of Fos-
ter, in this county, but who formerly
lived in Pendleton and in the north
ern portion of the county, tells an
interesting story of a session of cir
cult court held at Swift's station in
1852.
Mr.. White was on the jury at the
time and a murder trial from Una
tilla Landing was called for the fol-
lowing day, at noon. The only means
of travel at that time was by stage
coach, and as the witnesses were COM
ing from Umatilla by stage, the jury
thought there would be nothing for it
to do until that time. The jury had
been called on the case and a portion
of the testimony heard, when more
witnesses were summoned from Uma-
tilla.
While i'm the jury room discussing
the case, the jury decided that as
there could be nothing done further
until noon the next day the mem-
bers might as well go home and re-
turn the next day, when the stage
came with the witnesses.
a vote was taken on adjournment.
and all but one member of the jury
voted to adjourn, without consulting
the judge on the subject, and as the
vote was almost unanimous, this one
man did not hold out but said he
would go home also.
Tom Ireland was foreman of the
jury and declared the jury adjourned
until noon the next day, and request
ed all the members to be on hand
promptly.
Joseph Wilson was circuit judge at
the time, and when he sent the bail
iff to call the jury into court to be
dismissed, for the afternoon, in order
that they might be called on another
case, for that day, he found the jury
room empty and no jurors to be
found.
Promptly at noon next day the
members of the adjourned jury ap-
peared in court and assembled for
the further discussion and hearing of
the murder case. Just as promptly
Judge Wilson called the members be-
fore him and explained the gravity
of their crime and after filming them
S4 each, gave them a lecture on the
duties of a juryman which Mr. White
says he very well remembers until
today. He has not moved to adjourn
a Jury since

"DON CAESAR DE BAZAN."
Charles L. Hanford Coming in This
Role on February 16.

Charles b. Hanford's company, as
organized for this seasons tour will
surpass any that he has previously
provided. He has engaged his play
ers with the purpose of carrying out
the pictorial as well as the dramatic
possibilities of the various scenes.
Considerations of personal appearance
and even of stature have been OBJ
served and the result is production
in which the eye as well as the in
telllgence will constantly be delight
ed.
Years Of experience have equipped
Mr.. Hanford for the task of ade-
quately presenting such plays as
Don Caesar de Bazan," and he re-
CARDS his present enterprise as the
climax of his eminently successful
career as a producer. Mr. Hanford
will appear at the Frazer on Febru-
airy 16.

agara Falls" has been styled by a well
known critic in Chicago, "a sane
melodrama." There is nothing revolt
lngly lurid about "Over Niagara
Falls" nothing which does not seem
perfectly natural and within the range
of possibility and there is not a line
in the entire production which savors
of vulgarity These are certainly
matters which recommend it when
considered carefully. Apart from its
scenery and realistic features, "Over
Niagara Falls has one of the strong
est casts ever seen outside of the
high-priced productions.

MAKING WHIRLWIND OF TWIST
Architect Becomes Confused on the
Name of a Patron.

The following little incident which
occurred in the office of Architect
Troutman recently goes to show that
while the use of a Synonymous term
may be all right when an inanimate
object is referred to- the same is not
true with respect to personal names.
A few days ago S. Twist, well
known barber of Walla Walla, drop
ped into Nh Troutman's office and
was greeted with a Good morning
Mr.. Whirl." Nothing was said Of the
matter, and the architect was ignor-
ant of his blunder. The next time
Mr.. Twist called he was cordially re-
ceived as Mr.. wind When Mr.
Troutman discovered his mistakes he
was thankful they had not. both oc-
CURED on the same occasion, for com

Remember the Lessons of the
Epidemic of 1893.

AS we are now threatened with
another visitation of the dreaded
yellow fever it is well to remem-
ber the experiences of the last
occasion. In all sections where
yellow fever made it's appearance
it will be recalled that persons
who kept their stomach, liver
and bowels strong and active
were not affected by the disease;
while others apparently health
ly were stricken down. These
later were all more or less habit
ually constipated, bilious or vic
tins of bad digestion; as a re-
suit the blood becomes impure
and the vital organs were unable
to resist the deadly fever germs.
Now is the time to prepare for
what is to follow. Get your
family and your self in shape to
resist the disease. You don't
know when you are exposed to
it, every man you meet may be
affected and if you put your pre-
paratious off from day to you
may be too late. The sensible
course is to begin at once taking
Prickly Ash Bitters; that marvel
Gus system regulator and blood
purifier. Use it regularly every
day. Half a wine glaSsful each
morning after break fast will keep
your bowels open and healthy, 1T
will also strengthen the stomach
and digestion, purify the blood
and by stimulating the liver and
kidneys all bile and uric acid inn
purities will be driven out Of the
body. In SHIRT, it puts the sys-
| TEN in perfect order. Remem-
Der 1898. That was a record year
for Prickly Ash Bitters. la the
sections where it was used the
most there were fewest cases of
fever. You cannot do better in
/ this hour Of danger than TO make
use of the means which expert
ence has proven to be the best
for lighting off this terrible
Scurge.

CURE FOR HAY FEVER

Mayo & Weaver Say Hyomei Viii
Give ReIief-Sold Under Guarantee.
Mayo & Weaver wish to an
nounce that when Hyomei is used
as preventative, or a cure,
there will be no hay fever. They
advise daily treatment W h
Hoymei for two Or three weeks
before the usual time for the an
nual appearance of hay fever. If
this is done, the attack will be
prevented. However, if the pre-
ventive treatment is not started
soon enough, and the disease
makes it's appearance. use Hyo-
mel six or seven times daily, and
relief will be given at once.
There is no stomach dosing
when Hyomei is used. Breathed
through the neat pocket inhaler
that comes with every outfit, it's
medicated air reaches the minu-
test air cells, killing all germs
and soothing and healing the ir-
ritated mucous mem brane.
The complete Hyomei outfit
costs but 81, extra bottles 30
cents. It is the only treatment
for hay fever, sold by Mayo &
Weaver under a guarantee to re-
fund the money if it does not
give satisfaction.
The Singer Sewing Machine,
the new model, is far and away
ahead of all other machines and
the price is consideration when
buying. II you are contem plating
the purchase of a machine see
the new model. No. 66 and have
it's merits and improvements ex-
planned to you Then you will
buy no other. This machine is
now offered in the Colum bus
territory and parties who are in
the market will do well to see it
before buying.

rather bullish in its nature.
