WOMAN BECOMES A SCIENTIST.
Named Assistant Bacteriologist in the
California State Hospital

UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA,
June 30.-The appointment of Miss
Margaret Henderson as assistant bac-
teriOlogist in the state hygienic lab
oratory at the University of Califor-
MIA under DR.. A. R. Ward gives her a
unique position as a woman of the
scientific world. Her chosen field is
one hitherto Stunned by her sex.
Miss Henderson will do active re-
search work under the direction of DR..
Ward. All meteorological problems
that confront the state board of health
will be passed up to her to be solved.
With scalpel and microscope as her
chief tools, it will become her forte to
test the action Of new and strange
forms of bacteria by innoculating
fowls with the disease germs and then
noting the results.
Miss Henderson has taken a Bach
elor of Science degree from the Uni
versity of California, where she was
graduated with the class of 1908. Sub
sequently she taught in Mills college.
At the present time she is working
under the direction of Dr. Ward. Her
official duties will begin next August.

TALK OF RECEIVER.
Royal Arcanum Members Would Have
Courts Intervene

MILWAUKEE, June 30.-f the
feeling among the Milwaukee men,
bers Of the Royal Arcanum does not
change an application may be made
for the appointment of receiver for
the fraternal insurance order. Lately
there have been several conferences
1t seemed to ge a general idea that
the advisable course, if Objectionable
rates are not withdrawn, would be to
ask the courts to intervene. One plan
was to apply for an injunction against
the officers at Boston, to prevent the
carrying out of the proposal.
The ability of the members to Sc
cure the appointment of a receiver
and nave the affairs wound up will
depend entirely on whether the court
can be made to believe that there is
state Of insolvency. While a def
ciecy of $271,OOO exists, according to
the admission of the officers, the fact
remains that they can raise 81, 100000
or more.
An order enjOining the officers from
collecting the new rates on October /
undoubtedly could be obtained, but it
would accomplish little good, for the
main question would still remain I'M
settled.

Thus George r. Cox, republican

governed city in the United States"
answered the attack. He says:

INFLUX OF ALIENS.
Streams Of immigrants Are Pouring
Through New York

NEW YORK, June 3O.-Streams of
immigrants continue to pour into New
York through Ellis Island, breaking
previous records. More than $4,000
immigrants have landed since June
and official statement up to the end of
this month is 84,0S5, as against 51,731
in June Of last year, an even larger
proportionate increase than in May,
this year, being, 94,712, as against TO-
AT in May, 1904. The highwater
mark in immigration is usually reach
ed in May.
The census office approximates the
total immigration for this fiscal year
at 1,O61,659 which indicates a record
breaker, nighwater mark being S57,046
for the year ending June 80, 1904
There has been little change in the
genera character of immigrants in the
fiscal year about to close. Lithuanians
and Bohemians have been rushing here
mainly to work in coal mines, Poles
and Russians come and scatter over
the whole country, many settling in
sweatshops, Italians crowd in to do
manual labor, Swedes and Greeks find
their way to the northwest. There are
fewer Germans than of former years,
and Ireland seems to have been pretty
thoroughly drained.

CRIMINAL LATELY RELEASED
FROM PENITENTIARY VICTIM
OF HEART DISEASE
Was Serving a Six-Year Sentence a
McNeiPs Island, When Summons
Came at Night

After serving but six days of a six
year sentence, Frank Richards. an ex-
convict, lately discharged from the
Walla Walla penitentiary, died at the
United States prison at McNeiPs ISL
and Wednesday night of heart disease.
Richards pleaded guilty to counter
feiting ten days ago at Seattle and
was sentenced to six years in the
United States prison. Wednesday
night while asleep on his little prison
cot ne was seized with commissions and
before the prison physician could be
summoned the convict had passed
away.
Richards gained considerable noto-
riety at his last trial by testifying that
his sister and her husband, who had
been arrested on a charge Of counter
feiting, were innocent of any wrong
doing, and taking upon himself all the
blame of issuing and passing coun-
terfeit money which was found upon
the three. He declared that mis- sis
ter and her husband were innocent of
any knowledge of his counterfeiting
operations.
Richards was discharged from the
Walla Walla penitentiary early in the
year, after serving a fveyear SEN
tence for robbery. He was regarded
by the authorities as a dangerous man
and while confined in the penitentiary
was closely watched. Immediately af-
ter being released Richards left WAL
la Walla for the Sound. Less than a
month afterwards he, with his sister
and her husband, was arrested for
passing counterfeit money.

MORE SLOCUM VICTIMS
Gruesome Find in Hull Points to Neo
left After Disaster

PHILADELPHIA, June 30.-The re-
mains of number of victims who per-
ished on the excursion steamboat Cen
eral Slocum, on which 1,031 lives were
lost in June, 1904, were yesterday dis
covered in the hull of the steamer at
the foot of Twenty seventh street,
Camden to which point all that was
left of the steamer had been towed.
The discovery was made by Adam
Rickenback, who said later:
From what l saw I believe there
are lots of bones. The sand in the
hull is several feet deep in places and
1t did not look to me as though any
attempt had ever been made to see
what was in there"

NEW WAR MENACE
England Notifies Kaiser Two Island
Empires Will Stand Together.

CHICAGO, June 3O.-A Washington
special to the Tribune says:
A state of nervous apprehension over
the European situation exists in dip
velopments which has just come to
light.
President Roosevelt has been in
formed that Germany regards the Mo-
rocco question as of greater import
ance than the sso-Japanese situa-
ton.
This view is believed to nave been
induced by the notification which
Great Britain had given Germany that
an agreement had just been reached
to make the Anglo-Japanese treaty
an offensive as we'll as a defensive
alliance.
Six months ago Great Britain and
Germany were so frightened at the
faces each was making at the other
that they almost went to war. the
same condition is manifest today by
Germany and France. Neither power
desires war and would be seriously in
jured by it. But the struggle for the
world domination, which is at the bot
tom of the differences between the ma
nations named, has developed an ugly
feeling which caused warlike prepa-
rations.
AS one ambassador forcibly express
ed it, Germany, Great Britain and
France are in the same position as
three men who are on bad terms and
have rifles in their hands. A move by
one may give the impression to the
others that he is about to fire, and,
they, in self-defense, lift their guns
to their shoulders.
No one appreciates more than Pres
ident Roosevelt, the serious results
which would follow a rupture between
Germany and France. Great Britain
would be dragged in, and worldwide
war which the president and Secretary
Hay thought they had averted at the
outbreak of the Russo-Japanese con-
f1ict would be precipitated.

PLAY FOUR GAMES IN WALLA
WALLA WITH THE FRUIT
PiCKERS
butcher Will Pitch One Game for
Manager O'connor-WiIner Will
Be Here with "Wonders"

The PendletOn "WOnderS' VIII come
to Walla Walla Sunday morning for a
series of four ball games with the
Fruit Pickers. The first contest will
take place at the Garden City Park
at 8 O'Clock Sunday afternoon; the
second at o'clock Monday afternoon,
and the third at 10 o'clock Tuesday
morning and the fourth at 100 o'clock
Tuesday afternoon.
Since the game that Pendelton
played in Walla Walla several Sun
days ago the old team has been dis
banded and a new aggregation has
been gotten together. Realizing that
a noodoo the management of the new
team has adopted Wonders as the
official designation of the bunch. While
a number of old players are still en-
rolled yet, quite a number of new men
have been secured and the Pendleton-
fans are claiming that they have the
fastest team ever representing the
town since the days of the old Inland
Empire league.
While the advance lineup of the
team as sent to Manager ,O'Connor,
does not reveal the names of any of
the league players, it is currently re-
ported that a pitcher and catcher have
been secured from Ogden and will do
the principal work for the visitors in
one of the games of the series.
The Fruit Pickers are now in the
best shape they ever have been. With
O'Brien, the Olympia twirler, and
Tempany, who has been one of the
best pitchers of the team Manager
O'Connor believes ne has the Pendle-
tonians beaten before they go into the
game. This afternoon he succeeded
in signing "Tommie" butcher, the
crack pitcher of the Whitman college
butcher is one of the best amateur
pitchers in the Inland Empire, and he
will certainly do some good work for
the Fruit Pickers.
An effort will be made to have the
stores close Monday afternoon at 8
O'Clock for the game that day and on
July it is the intention to have the
afternoon game called at | o'clock so
as not to interfere with the celebration
that is to be held at Fort Walla Walla.
1t win be interesting to many of the
old time fans to learn that Wilmer, the
crack fielder of the Inland Empire
league, is again with Pendleton, and
he can be counted on to get a few safe
ones over the fence in the coming tour
nament.
The personnel of the two teams is as
follows:
Wonders-Lieuallen, catcher; Small
and King, pitchers; Froome, first;
Williams, second; Hartman, third;
Wilmer, right; Gray, left; Brown,
shortstop; Castle, center.
Fruit Pickers-Lewis, snortstop;
Currigan, catcher and first; Tempany,
pitcher and first; Buchet, second;
Fisher, third; Croker, left; McCool,
center; Peasner, right; Donovan,
catcher; O'Brien and butcher, pitchers.
