Rock Wednesday. Mr.. Russell is en-
gagged in farming and has lived in
Umatilla county upwards of 20 years.
While he admits there are other parts
of the coutny better adapted to the
cultivation of cereals he says crops
can be grown in any part of eastern
Oregon by men who know how to
farm. He says he has raised potatoes
when the rainfall was lightest that
would compare with any grown in the

I. o. O. T.. ENTERTAINMENT.
Delightful Affair Given Saturday
Night by Eureka Lodge No. 30, of
This City.

One of the most delightful evenings
of the season in Pendleton society cir
cles was enjoyed by about 100 guests
at progressive whist party given by
Eureka lodge No. 32, 1. o. o. F., of
this city, at Odd Fellows temple last
Saturday night from s to 12.
Sixteen tables were filled with the
whist players and large number be-
side enjoyed the evening in social con-
versition.
At II O'Clock an excellent and elab-
crate spread was enjoyed in the ban
quet room. there being about 80 guests
at the table. The spread was prepar-
ed by T. o. Elliot and was one of the
most delightful ever enjoyed in the
city. While it was to be but a cold
lunch, 1t more resembled a banquet
than a lunch and was highly enjoyed
The entertainment was in charge OF
a committee consisting of ]. II. Law
rey, chairman, assisted by ]. W. Malo-
ney and j. II. Wallace and was high
ly successful in every way.
1t is possible that a series of these
parties will be given by Eureka lodge
during the winter.

NEW BASEBALL MANAGER.
Joseph Allen Will Have Charge oi
Whitmau's '06 Team.

The Walla Walla Union speaks as
follows Of Whitman's baseball team
manager for the year 1906:
Joseph Allen. 'O6, was yesterday ap-
pointed Whitman's baseball manager
hy the executive committee of the
associated students. He takes the
place of Alfred Gardner. who left col
lege at the end of the first semester.
Allen is from Spokane. and since
he has been in Whitman has been
prominent, particularly in literary and
society affairs. AS baseball manager.
it is thought that he will be successful.
not only on account of his business
ability, but of his universal popular
ity.
On account of the lack of mana
ger for the last two weeks. nothing has
been done to arrange the baseball
schedule for the spring. 1t will, how
ever. most likely not vary much from
preceding seasons in the number of
games and the colleges played.
Regular training has not yet begun,
although each good day sees a number
of men out on the field. As soon as
spring is here for sure, Captain Dutch
er will get his men down to syste-
matte work.
As most Of last years team is in
college. and a number of promising
athletes have entered this year, there
is little doubt that Whitman will hold
her position as a particularly strong
baseball college.

W. $. \. c. CONCERT.
An Excellent Entertainment That
Could Easily Have Been Better.

Saturday evening the glee club of
the Washington State Agricultural
college appeared here at the Frazer
theater, being upon their regular an
nual tour. The program consisted of
a concert and musical comedy, THE
American Girl The former consisted
of songs by the club, solo selections by
Mrs. Kuria Strong, piano solo by Mr.,
Herbert kimbrough, and a baritone
selection by De Forest Cline.
There are 16 members in the club,
and there are some good singers
among them, the bases especially be-
ing strong. Also the singing of Mrs.
Strong was appreciated. The princi-
pal merit of the comedy was that it
gave opportunity for much singing.
However, with the material there is in
the club 4 much better entertainment
could doubtless be given If the pro-
gram were more skillfully arranged
and the members more thoroughly
trained.
Owing doubtless to inadequate ad-
vertising, but a small attendance was
present Saturday evening.

Remarkable Record.

Within the past 12 days, or
since February 1, 1906, the East
Oregonian has received 179 sub
scriptions, three-fourths of
which are new subscriptions, the
remainder being renewals. A
large proportion of this number
is for the Seml-Weekly edition
and almost the entire number is
from Umatilla county. This is
one of the best 12-day records
in the history of Umatilla coun-

Serious internal troubles have
broken out in the ranks of the Pen
dleton Tribune company and as the
result of coup d'etat the manage
ment has been taken from E. p. Dodd
the majority stockholder, and is now
in the hands of C. w. Myers, city edi-
tor and newly elected secretary of
the company. This situation was
brought about at a meeting held Sat
urday evening.
From appearances the course of the
Tribune company organized year
ago has not been a smooth one. At
that time the company was incorpor-
ated for the sum of $4,000 and one
third of this stock was sold to five
employees of the paper at so cents on
the dollar. However, all of this
amount was not paid in at the time
and small weekly payments have been
made from their salaries by most of
the men.

On last Thursday a prosperous
merchant Of Fort Worth. Tex,
with two or three friends entered
the dining room Of the foregoing
hotel. and. as he had to wait an
unreas0nablv long time before his
order vas taken. he spoke 10 a
waiter. Theodore Harris. about it
but only received scorntal smiles
IN return.
Finally. this same waiter. Har-
RS. took the Texas mans order.
and when the dinner was over he
presented q check for 50.
The Texan gave him a > bill
and told him TO keep the change.
Regular Vanderbilt. snarled
the waiter, but he put the tip in
his pocket. The Texan, boiling
with rage, said: 'I'n knock your
head of. The waiter said: Come
and try It.
And the Texan did try il. Tn a
moment he had the waiter on the
floor and he beat him about the
head until he cried for help. The
waiter was discharged and the
Texan received the thanks of the
hundred OF more fashionable guests

It often happens that a waiter will
not exercise care in filing an order
until ne Is sure Of a tip, and the
tip must he a pretty big one tc

Guests who are not liberal with
their tips have reason to find fault
with the hotel. and they generally
