Would Admit Canadian Cattle.

LONDON, April 6.-The bill intro
duced in the house of commons last
month and aiming at the removal of
the embargo on the importation of
Canadian cattle, will come up for a
second reading today and an inter-
esting debate is expected. The sup
porters of the measure include several
Canadian members. There is every
hope that the bill will eventually pass
the lower house, but it is feared that
it will be defeated in the house of
lords

man WITH BIG HOLE IN HIS HEAD
Jack Mahan Tells of His Experiences
With the Famous Dalton Gang
In 1891.

Big Jack Mahara, representative OF
the Mahara Minstrels, was in Walla
Walla today arranging for the appear
ance of the big company at the Key
lor Grand on April II. Mr.. Mahara
has the distinction of having hole in
his head, but it does not interfere with
his transacting business and he is
considered one of the best advance
men on the road.
Il received that big scar by coming
in contact with the famous Dalton
gang" said Mr.. Mahara this morn
ing. 'In 1891 1 was travelling over
the Missouri Pacific from Coffeeville
Kan, to Fort Smith, Ark, when one
night about II o'clock while passing
through Indian Territory, the train
was suddenly brought to a stop in a
small bunch of timber. The train was
boarded by the Dalton gang and they
began shooting up the train to intimi-
date the passengers. Bullets new
thick and fast and before / could rea-
lie what was going on I was struck
in the center of the forehead by a
bullet from a Winchester. For eight
days l was unconscious, but after
treatment at a hospital in Chicago
recovered and have been on the road
ever since"

Asking for General Paving
Proposals.

PENDLETON, April 6.-All street
paving companies are now invited to
bid upon the work of improving Main
and Court streets, for Thursday night
the council passed a resolution. to that
effect. The action was taken in ac-

The resolution was passed by unan-
