JUMPER NOT APPRECIATED.
WastefuI Destruction VIII Yet BE
Much Regretted.

The burning of the juniper timber
as is being practiced here by many
who are clearing land, is to be re-
tant when this will be fully realized,
says the Laidlaw Chronicle.
Recent tests go to show that this
timber which has heretofore been
considered without commercial value
will soon be in good demand and the
moment that proper transportation
facilities are at hand there will be a
market value on this wood that will
be far in excess of the cost of proper
ly taking care of it while the land is
being cleared.
There are only few bodies of juni-
and a good part of these are of the
scrubby order and there are none that
can excel that of Western Crook
county, and especially that on the
west side of the Des Chutes.
This wood being susceptible to a
high polish and when properly sea-
soned of a very tough fiber fits it ad-
mirably to be used in furniture fin
ishing and especially where the natur-
al color is desired, but aside from this
there are many things for which II
can be used successfully But posi-
bly, the greatest demand will come
from the manufacturers Of lead pen
ellis, as investigation shows that II
cannot be beaten for this purpose.

ATE HIS VICTIMS EAR.
Cannibalistic Orgies in an Idaho Sa-
loon I'm the Mountains.

What seems more like a narrative
from Darkest Africa" comes from
Clarkia, Idaho, where a saloon fight
resulted in one man losing an ear,
and the man who bit 1t off was after
ward compelled to eat 1t, in regular
cannibalistic style. The story is as fol-
lows:
Cannibal depsite himself, forced to
eat the ear which he had bitten from
his antagonist, "Lank" Franigan,
Brad Walshaw, a lumberjack from
Klinards camp on the Upper st. Ma
ries, paid an unique but revolving
penalty for a quarrel and fight Of his
own making last night, in which he
was badly worsted.
A dozen men witnessed the fracas,
which occurred in Floss saloon near
Clarkia, and, according to their ver-
sion, Walshaw, who had been drink
ing, attacked Franigan, gouging an
eye and biting off an ear at the same
time saying, "I'll chew you down to
dwarf" Franigan rallied, and af-
ter kicking Walshaw in the head,
forced him to eat the ear he had bit
ten off. though not until he had beat
en- Walshaw half insensible in the
second affray.
Franigan spiced the ear with bar
pepper and salt before serving. The
Iumberjacks who witnessed the affair
Cannibal despite himself, forced to

SNOW is WELCOMED.
Farmers Say it Is Benefit TO the
Wheat Crops and Yield Has Been
Increased by 1t.

"The snow of last night made a
bushel per acre more wheat for us
next year" said John Crow, the well
known reservation farmer to the East
Oregonian today.
The ground was in excellent condi-
ton to receive the snow, since it was
frozen just enough to hold 1t and allow
it to soak into the soil gradually. The
wheat needed the covering for protec-
tion from the freezing weather. and
taken altogether, 1t is a welcome and
profitable storm. From four to five
inches now cover the entire county,
and excellent sleighing is enjoyed at
Weston and Athena.

LITTLE POCKET PHYSICIAN.
Hyomei Inhaler That Is Guaranteed
by TaIIman & Co, to Cure Catarrh.

Thousands who have been cured by
Hyomei, caf1 the inhaler that comes
with every outfit THE little pocket
physician" as 1t is so small that 1t can
be carried in the pocket or purse.
Prior to the discovery of Hyomei,
statistics showed that at least 81 out
of every 100 persons in this state were
suffering from catarrh in some form.
The remarkable results following the
use of Hyomei are shown by the small
er percentage today of people suffer-
ing from catarrh.
There is really no excuse whatever
for anyone having catarrh now that
Hyomei Is so readily obtainable. II
you have any doubts about its value,
Tallman e Co. will let you have COM
plete outfit with the understanding
that unless it cures catarrh, 1t will not
cost you cent
A complete Hyomei outfit consists
of "the little pocket physician" a
medicine dropper, and bottle of Hy-
omei, and costs only 81, while addi-
tional bottles of Hyomei can be pro-
cured for so cents, making it the most
economical, as well as the most relia-
BILE treatment for the cure of catarrh
Do not delay longer the use of Hyo-
mel, If you have catarrh. This is a
purely local disease, and Hyomei goes
right to the spot where the catarrhal
germs are present, destroys them
soothes and heals all inflammation
and makes a permanent and lasting
cure.

We have discontinued our Walla
walla store, which was heavily stock
ed with the choicest of high grade
pianos carried by Eilers Piano House.
Instead of returning this immense
assortment to Portland at an added
expense for freight and carriage, and
still have them for sale, it has been
determined to close them all out here
at Pendleton at reductions which in
some instances are half the regular
retail price.
Every instrument must be closed
out quickly; time is money with us,
and even if we realize the wholesale
cost in this transaction we feel we
shall be ahead, hence these tremend-
ously reduced prices. Remember
these instruments are all brand new
and of the very latest and most up-to-
date designs.
We offer today strictly highest
grade, brand new, fully warranted
Upright Piano for S21S.OO, which is
less than half price; a palmer case,
the s365OO style, for $4,000 cash, or
easy payments; or on terms of one
third now. one-third next year, and
one-third in two years.
This Walla walla stock also in
cludes some slightly used pianos
which were received in part payment
for new instruments.
These also will go at such low
prices never heard Of heretofore
Here is a Fischer, in quite excellent
shape for S127.OO. A Ricca & Son, ir
beautiful English oak case, only used
four months, s1S6.OO; Sherman Clay
G. Co., dark case, medium size, fol
s11s.OO.
Reductions positively genuine. II
this stock are included several othel
costly and exclusive makes, the fac
tory cost of which slightly exec ID
100000, and three others, the factor
cost of which is a little more thar
100000. On these, terms will not b
made less than $1,000 and $500, re
spectively.
All other instruments may be ha
for $1,000 per month and some IS 10,
as $500 and $500 per month, or cor
responding semi-annual payments
desired.
Remember, that Eilers Piano Hous
positive guarantee goes with every IN
strument sold. Remember, that earl
buyers will have the advantage of se
lecting the complete assortment.
Store open day and night until sA
closes.
A good roll top desk and other o
