FRUIT SHIPMENT
WORTH FORTUNE

Grand Junction, Oct. S.-Anothtr
great shipment of fruit which will
bring returns of 500, 500 tc the growers
was sent out by the Grand Junction
to various parts of the United States.
This lot consisted of a solid train of
ninteen cars of apples and pears and
was handled by the Denver & Rio
Grande railroad company.
A few days ago the same association
sent out consignment of fifteen cars
which netted the orchardists some
thing over $4,000 for their products
and that lot was the biggest single
from here so far this season. Satur
days shipment, however, sets a me-"
record, but it is believed that this will
be broken before the month is over
as there are many more carloads to 60
out and each ear represents $1,000 20
the grower.
The demand for Grand valley fruit
all over the continent continues and
phenomenal prices are being paid for
the products of this section of the
country. Practically all of the fruit
has already been sold, however. and
top figures are being obtained by the
raisers.
The p. Barry pears will be ready to
pull Tuesday or Wednesday and these
will be loaded only at Clifton and
Grand Junction by the Grand Junction
Fruit Growers association which,
therefore, urges the growers in the Pal
isade district to load this shipment
in cars at Clifton Saturday when the
forwarding will be commenced.

WOULD DYNAMITE
DENVER RESIDENTS.

Denver, Oct. S.-Police and det"c
tives are unable to solve the mystery
surrounding the discovery of dynamite
under the residence of Edward Chase
in the most fashionable section Of
Capitol hill They are following every
available clue, but up to date no tang-
Bile result has been reported.
Chase. his family and his palatial
home at 1892 Race street escaped fear
ful destruction Sunday night by the
merest chance. Enough dynamite vas
blow up the state capitol, and it $
certain that had the plans of the dyna-
miters not been thwarted, some of the
most prominent families both in bust
ness and socially in Denver would have
persisted along with Mr.. Chase and his
family.
Just before II clock Sunday night
while returning from City park along
Detroit avenue between Seventeenth
and Sixteenth avenues, James Bigelow,
- clerk, saw two men on the Colfax
avenue side of Sixteenth avenue earn
cstly conversing with each other and
acting suspiciously. He became alarmed
and, thinking they might be hold-ups,
stopped in the shadow of tree about
ten feet from Sixteenth avenue and
listened to what they We're saying.
They crossed Sixteenth avenue md
then on the Seventeenth avenue side
of the street they stopped, and this is
the conversation Mr.. Bigelow heard:
eve are going to get Moffat,
Kountz, Buchtel, Phipps and Ed Chase.
We are going to get Chase tonight.
We have the dynamite already there
and | am to meet my pal in few miu-
utes and We are going there to touch
her off. My pal is in the park and he
is coming up this way. You can ~
but Just here the fellow who had been
talking to the clerk in the shadow of
the tree was joined by another and the
two fed. Mr.. Bigelow hurried toward
Colfax avenue He turned around and
watched the two men hurrying towards
the park as far as he could in the dark
and when he reached Colfax he saw the
third man join the other two at the
park entrance. He then gave the
alarm to the police. Under :he house
the police found a package of dynamite
and a coil of fuse. Another package
was placed by the police where the
dynamite was found. Half dozen de-
tectves, led by Capt. Loomis, went to
the house and these kept watch all
night until six clock Monday morn
ing, but without result

WANT A SITE FOR
WooDMEN HOME.

Colorado Springs, Oct. 9.-The choice
of three sites suitable for the national
America has been secured in this city
Aemrica has been secured in this city
by the committee appointed by Colo
RADIO Springs Camp n. 1926, and the
head officers of the order who are now
in the city, will be given a chance 10
look over the proposed sites and about
the city generally during the remainder
of the present week. At the reception
to be rendered the Woodmen at the Ant
lers hotel this evening the plans FOR
the proposed sanitarium will be ex-
pounded and the subject will be dis
cussed by the Woodmen officers and the
representative business men Of Colo
rado Springs who will be present.
The site most favored by the com
mittee is one composed of about 1000
acres close to the city and containing
valuable deposits of coal and stone
suitable for building purposes. Ac
cording TO j. +. Sanford the chairman
of the committee, an option has been
secured on the property at a reasonable
price and sufficient money has been Sc
cured for its purchase. This will be
the present that Colorado Springs will
offer for the establishment of the home
here and it is believed that no other
city in the country can furnish similrs
inducement when the other advantages
of Colorado Springs are taken into con
sideration.
While in this city the head officers of
the Woodmen will be taken to visit the
Union printers home, the Nordrach
ranch, the Cragmoor sanitarium and
many other places of attraction. The
headquarters of the order are in Rock
Island. Ill, and the meeting tonight
will be the first occasion on which any
other city has been honored by so
many of the head officers at one time.
The reception at the Antlers will begin
promptly at o'clock and will be at.
tended by representatives from the
chamber of commerce, the Merchants
association, the Automobile club, the
Good Roads association, the city coun-
ell and other bodies.

NOT THEIR LORD AND MASTER
Walla Walla Women Refuse to Kow-
tow to Il. L. Leavitt.

After one short month of connubial
felicity, the Order Of Good Samaritans,
ladies' auxiliary of the Brotherhood Of
Owls, at Walla Walla. has voluntarily
divorced itself from its lord and mas
ter. Trouble between Grand Executive
Fl. L. Leavitt, Brotherhood of Owls,
aud members of the auxiliary over
money matters led to the action taken
by the latter, who called at headquar-
ters of the grand nest and surrendered
their charter and other Junk of the
Owls, as the secretary, Mrs. Samuel
Hinton, expressed it. She said they
had given Leavitt $25 for their char
ter, now he wanted $3.50 more that
was in its treasury. He wanted them
to pay homage to him as their lord and
master, which they refuse absolutely
to do. They propose, however, TO re-
organize under the name of the Inde-
pendent Order of Samaritan Sisters
and keep their organization, with over
800 members, intact. The object of
the order is promotion of charitable
work in the community. These good
women have already done much work
in this line and Leavitt, they say, has
taken the credit. They have prepared
statement for publication covering the
above points, which will appear in the
WaIia Walla newspapers.

PIONEER TAYLOR GREEN DEAD
Died Monday Night at His Home
Near Woodward, Okla.

Mrs. Bert Huffman of Pendleton has
received a message stating that her
father, Taylor Green, the we'll known
pioneer of Weston, died monday night
at his home near Woodward, Okla,
aftnr long illness with Diabetes says
the East Oregonian.
He had been suffering with diabetes
for a nmuber of years and had prac-
tically made arrangements to come
back to Umatilla county in hopes that
the change would benefit his health.
Mr.. Green was a native of Sullivan
county, Missouri, and was "A years of
age. He came from Missouri to Wild
Horse creek, near Weston, in 1864,
and was one of the first settlers near
Weston, where he engaged extensively
in farming and stock raising, being
one of the principal horsegrowers of
tbe country.
In 1873 he purchased farm near
Hot Lake and moved from Weston to
that place. Later he purchased a
large tract of excellent land near
Union. where he resided until his de-
parture for Oklahoma in 1898.
Mr.. Green was we'll known to all the
pioneer settlers of Umatilla county.
He was charter member of the Wes-
ton Masonic lodge. but transferred his
membership to the Union lodge later
and was member of the latter when
he died. He was also ber Of the
Odd Fellows and took prominent
part in lodge work in Woodward.

There is persistent rumor that the
governor will veto the Monmouth
Drain appropriation bill. or that it
may be filed with a message calling
attention to the fiagrant breach of
parliamentary law by which Speaker
Davey auctioned it off for passage.
The latter course would throw the
question of the legality of the law
into the courts.
This is the bill Davey declared pass

showed 30 votes. short. Next morn.
ing Davey reopened the vote without
the action of the house and allowed
King to change from no to yes. On
this ground it is held that the vote is
illegal and the governor may veto it.
The board of regents bill was filed
Tuesday night. Through a mistake
the house enrolling committee amend
ment, requiring the board to report
upon the two normals for adjustment
was not put in the enrolled bill. The

WHEAT SALES AT WALLA WALLA
Walla Walla Company Buys 1917, 900
Bushels the Past Week.

a The top of the market for 1877, 900
bushels of wheat was paid by j. z.
Smith. representing the Kerr Clifford
company Of Walla Walla during the
past week. ibis is the largest amount
Of wheat purchased there by all deal
ers since the close OF active sales last
fall in anything like the same period
Of time. The sales were made on the
basis of /57c for club, and coo for clue
stem.
Quite large amount of wheat on
the north slopes between Walla Walla
and Prescott is said to have been killed
as the result Of the extreme cold wea-
ther during the months of Decembe
and January. On the ranch owned by
Thomas Bowe and Tom Ennis, work of
reseeding 800 acres will commence this
week.
Much dissatisfaction exists among
farmers in Washington regarding the
bill now before the legislature propos
ing change in the system of distrib-
uting grain bags manufactured by the
penitentiary. Under the new law in
stead of deposit of 10 per cent the
whole amount of the purchase price is
required, while no assurance is given
that the order will be filled, while the
price is materially advanced. Many
are placing orders for Calcutta bags
with local grain dealers.
