EXHIBIT WAS PROFITABLE.
About S24O Cleared for the Public
Schools by the Art Exhibit Week.

While the accounts are not all set
tied yet, it is thought the sum of s24O
will have been cleared for the public
schools by the art exhibit which was
held in this city this week. total of
of $3.50 was taken in from all sources
and the expenses have been about
$40.
The women's clubs and the commit
tees representing the public schools,
met this afternoon at o'clock to set
tie up the accounts and at the time
of going to press had not finished the
work.
The entire proceeds of the exhibit
will be used in buying pictures for
the public schools, 1t being the object
of the school authorities and women's
clubs to furnish each room with at
least five pictures, in time. There is
now one picture in each room and 1t
is thought by bringing one more ex'
hibit to the city next year each room
can be furnished with five excellent
pictures.
The women's clubs and schools are
deeply grateful to the people Of Pen
dleton for the excellent patronage
given the exhibit. They are greatly
encouraged by this response to their
efforts in behalf of the schools and
will take pleasure in expending the
money in such manner as to be per-
petual benefit to the city.
At a former exhibit held in this city
several years ago the sum Of s212 was
cleared, the exhibit being held in the
winter season. The increased profit
from the exhibit held this week at a
season Of the year when many people
are out of the city, proves that there
is greatly increased interest In the
subject and Is highly appreciated by
those who have directed the exhibit.
Receipts Were $50.
At 4 o'clock this afternoon the
committees finished the report on the
art exhibit and 1t is shown that the
total receipts were 1910, instead OF
$3.50.

INDEPENDENT CANDIDATE FOR SHERIFF

seen the beneficial results of having a
fearless sheriff in Multnomah, Baker
and Morrow counties, and believe
that 1t is possible to elect such an Of
ficial in Umatilla county, to cooper
ate actively with the district attorney
in the suppression Of gambling and
the regulation of the saloon business.
All the law enforcement people ask
is for the enforcement of the laws
now on the statute books, the sheriff
being designated in the code as one
of the first officials whose duty 1t is
to enforce these laws.
Speculation as to the outcome
should an independent candidate be
nominated, is now being made in all
quarters, and this promises to be one
of the interesting features Of the
campaign. Mr.. Bannister is well
known and is said to be highly ef-
ficient as well as in favor Of strict
law enforcement, and should he be
named will make an active canvass
for the office.

FIRES

NELSON LIES BENEATH
"A PAIL OF BLACK SMOKE.
Flames Climbing TO the Timber Limit
and Spreading Along Tributaries
Branches In Every Direction-Vast
Amount OF Young Timber Is Being
Destroyed-Burning Along the Co.
lumbia Between Robson and Trail.

Nelson, r. c., May 12.-Reports Of
fires are coming in from all directions.
Southwest of Nelson. along the Koote-
mai river, fires are blazing on the
northern Shores the flames climbing
the mountain sides to the limit of the
timber line. Northeast along the west
arm of Kootenai lake, the same con-
ditions prevail. there being at least six
fires some extremely dangerous ones
between Nelson and Proctor, 20 miles
east.
South of Nelson the flames are roar
ing up the valley of Cottonwood creek,
across the divide, taking in its path
some noble timber which was recent
ly marked for cutting this season.
The whole city is covered with a
pail of smoke which was so dense
that last night the moon shone with a
lurid glare.
A force of fire fighters has been
busily engaged for two days past in
an attempt to control the fire, which
is consuming the young timber replac-
ing that burned off nine years ago
on the mountin facing Nelson.
From the Columbia river comes
news of fire which is attacking the
timber along that stream between
Robson and Trail. From Rossland
are similar reports of fire endanger-
ing the south belt.
Similar reports are coming from
the east, where fires are a menace to
Fernie and other towns along the
Crows Nest Pass line.
The people are indignant over the
carelessness that has made these fires
so widespread.

That Pendleton will be equipped
with a wireless telegraph station by
the De Forrest Wireless Telegraph
company is the assurance of Milton
Huber, district manager of WafzA
walla, who was in the city last eve
ming in the interest of the De Forrest
company.
The great central station for tcs
inter-m6untain region is now being
built at Denver. This to be tho
largest wireless telegraph station in
the world and will be the repeating
station between the Pacific and thu
Atlantic coasts. From Denver Il ID
possible to reach to the borders oS
the United States in every directions,
At Boise a large station is being
built also, and Pendleton and Baker
City will be equipped, thus giving the
inland empire remarkable servico
within short time.
The business transacted by tha
wireless stations throughout tho
country is very heavy. One operator
can do as much work in the wireless
as half a dozen by wire systema
and the, profits I'm the business ara
very large.
Mr.. Huber is enthusiastic over the
growth of this industry and believes
that it will be but a few years until
every cross roads village in the coun-
try will be able to communicate with
every part of the world by wireless
The apparatus is very simple and
inexpensive. Receiving messages -
the most difficult part of the opera
ton. Transmitting is easily accom-
plished and operators become prof.
cient in transmitting within a short
time, but 1t requires considerable
time to become proficient in receiving
the wireless messages.
The messages are thrown off from
transmitter and travel with equal
velocity in every direction as the
waves from a pebble dropped in stfu
water. But only those receivers
which are tuned" to the pitch O6
the message can receive the messaSA-
All messages are sent out in a Ger
tain musical pitch, and the Office
which is to receive the message is
first called and requested to "tunA
| up" for a certain pitch. This being
done the message strikes the receiver
and operates the delicate instruments
Other receivers not in tune with the
message do not receive it and while
the message passes over other sta
tons none except those tuned for Il
receive any impression.
1t is being applied to railroads 10
prevent accidents and has proved to
be a certain and unfailing warming.
This is one of the greatest possibiIi-
ties of the wireless since 1t can be
used on trains running in every OF
rection with absolute certainty Sig
nal lamps in engine cabs and ca
booses can be operated by it. thus in
surfing safety to all classes of trains.
1t has been successfully tested on pas
senger trains, and many eastern roads
are now making preparation to equip
all passenger trains with wireless in
struments.
Mr.. Huber will be in Pendleton
quite often in making arrangements
to erect the station here. 1t Is IL.
intention of the De Forrest company
to encircle the earth with wireless
stations, thus giving each small in
terror point instant communication
with any OF the distant countries OF
the world.

TWO BURGLARS CAUGHT NEAR BINGHAM

a pistol. However, Sheriff Taylor was
quicker than he and in a moment the
two burglars were relieved of their
weapons as well as much other plum
der. Among the things found on them
were three pistols, one watch, seven or
eight razors, two or three purses and
large amount of ammunition. All,
or most of these articles had been
stolen from the Huron and North Fork
section houses yesterday.
After securing their men the two
captors caught a westbound freight
and reached Pendleton about I
o'clock this morning. Since then they
have been warmly congratulated for
the vigorous and effective work done
in securing the burglars in such
short time. Both the prisoners are
now being held in the county Jail.
They are typical hoboes and doubt
less have other similar crimes to their
credit
