This afternoon the remains of the
late Frank X. Schempp We're laid at

ice was held at $3.50 in the Eagles
hall under the auspices of the Eagles
and Redmen's lodges.
Following the service at the hall
the procession was formed on Court

that thoroughfare to Alta and then
proceeded west on that street. The
procession was led by the Eagles band.
Since his death Saturday evening
the remains of the dead man were
held at his rooms in the Columbia

layed to await the arrival of relatives

GREAT YIELD OF ALFALFA.
State Farm at Corvallis Turns Off Five
Crops Year.

The Corvallis Times says of the
alfalfa crop on the state agricultural
college farm:
A fifth crop of alfalfa is a foot high
on the college farm. 1t stands thick
and is fine pasturage. The four crops
that have been taken off this season
made yield of 27.16 tons of green
feed, equivalent to nine tons of cured
hay per acre. This is Weld to make
an Oregon farmers heart glad. Great
as Is vetch, as a forage plant, it can
not approach 1t.
The tract in question comprises
two acres. 1t was sown six years ago,
and during the five seasons that 1t has
been cropped, there have been 10 cut
tings. The land is ordinary wheat
lands bordering on and just n trifle
above the white land level. 1t is part
ly tile drained but not ALL
It's history as an alfalfa producer
has been extremely satisfactory. 1t
has proven that with reasonable at
tention alfalfa can be grown on almost
any land in the Willamette valley, es-
pecially II it be well drained. This Is
the belief of DIR. Withycombe who has
charge of the tract in question.
TIE college has six acres in alfalfa
in addition to the, two acre tract re.
ferred to. 1t likewise has a thrifty
yield. The probabilities are that
whenever land is demonstrated to be
an alfalfa producer 1t Immediately
becomes worth 500 or more per acre
When Benton county produces all the
alfalfa of which it is capable. it viii
become a county of rich farmers.

shooting up the town from the
cushioned seats of a big auto is the
pastime that was enjoyed for an hour
or more by party of four that was
in the city last evening and as result
of their escapade the city treasury is
$50 richer this morning. Those in the
group were p. d. Tull of the firm
of Tull & Gibbs, furniture dealers Of
Portland and Spokane; ]. f. Stepleton,
of ST. Louis; J. ]. Davis, of Spokane,
and H. Wolff, also of the eastern
Washington city.
Last evening the party came over
from Walla Walla by auto and during
the evening they evidently came to
the conclusion that the city should be
given a carmine hue. So arming
themselves with a quantity of large
sized Fourth of July bombs they en-
tered their trusty motor car and be-
gan the rounds. The opening volley
was fired shortly after S o'clock while
touring along Fast Court street. The
noise of the bomb startled the audi
ence in the Frazer theater and some
wondered If the shot was part of
the play until they remembered that
gunpowder was not fashionable in the
ninth century.
After exploding the first bomb the
thirst for gore apparently grew upon
the members Of the party anu they
proceeded to salute other portions OF
the city. on the Main street bridge
another was fired off, then one was
recklessly dropped in front of the po-
lice headquarters on Alta street.
BY this time the strong arm of the
law in the shape of Night Officer
Sheer and Officer Waters was reach
ing out for the bunch, but owing to
the speed of the auto it was difficult
to catch the marauders. But knowing
we'll the habits of such night birds,
the police bided their time confident
that they would soon light in a cer-
tain locality. In this theory they
were right for in the course of time
the big auto was brought to a stop
on Webb street close to the sign of
the St George bar. Cautiously the
four bad daredevils stole into the
place and demanded that certain
liquids be mixed for their benefit.
While inside the barroom the four
gentlemen were confronted by Police
men Waters and Sheer who arrested
them for violation of the ordinance
No. 4O4. This impertinence on the
part OF the officers was resented, but
objections availed not upon the firm
mind of Hi Waters and the four were
| uiN 0l nf 70 iaf
or giving Lail. The bail was finally
given and when the four gentlemen
failed to appear in police court thi!
morning the coin was declared for
feited unto the city.

This morning P. C. Callahan was
taken to the asylum by an attendant
from that institution and while at the
depot before leaving the pestiferous
Irishman undertook to "eXpose" Chief
OF Police Gurdane.
On seeing his former prisoner
taken away the chief approached him
and said: Goodbye, Callahan.

words TO that effect. -,
With tragic air and a wild look
Callahan replied:
"Ah. l knew you would throw me
down. Ever since we worked to-
gether in that burglary job two years
ago l knew you would go back Oh
me-"
The incident has caused much
amusement among the friends of the
marshal and he has had numerous re-
quests today to tell more about tbs
robbing job in which he and Gala
han were pals.
