Richest Car Ever
Sent Out.

The carload of ore which was
sent out by the Hayes onnette
lease about the first of the year by
express and which was received by
the Selby Smelling company on
the Bird inst, brought the pheno-
menal sum (net) of 80,
as attested by the samplers receipt
which has just been received and
is held as a memento by the leas-
ing firm. The lot consisted of &C.,
1876 pounds of ore, gross, and less
sacks, moisture, ETC., weighed 95,-
537 pounds. Its value in gold was
Sl2.22 to the pound, and nearly IS
ounces of silver to the ton. 1t was
by far the richest carload of Gre
that has ever been shipped from
any camp in tho world, and, if its
value is ever equalled or excelled it
is safe to assume that it will be
done by a Goldfeld property. Such
bonanzas do not exist elsewhere

Bellboy Struck it
Rich.

Frank Averill. Il bellboy at the
Hotel Alexandria, Los Angeles, 20
years OF age, is in receipt of a tele-
gram signed by A. j. Mcpherson,
a bank official in Green water, New,
stating that $3.50 in cash and 1885,
800 shares of copper stock, valued
at $4,000. have been deposited to
his credit in the Greenwater Bank.
Averill knows nothing of anyone
who would be likely to leave him
such an amount of money, and has
responded to the dispatch, stating
that he IS of the opinion that it, is
meant for some n else. The mes
sage. however, was plainly address,
ed "Frank Averill, bellboy, Hotel
Alexandria"
The dispatch came collect, with
$2.45 charges on it and Averill at
first declined to receive the mes
sage and pay the charges. He
finally did SO, thinking some of his
relatives may have died. Averill,
who has travelled abroad extensive
iy and has plenty of knowledge of
the world, says hat be does not
need the money and does not want
1t.
II would only spend it, and then
would be worse off than before" be

CH|L0 DIES OF SCARLET FEVER
Daughter Of David Leach Stricken
While Family Is Moving.

A dispatch from Dayton. Wash
Saturday says: ''The 1S-months-o old
daughter of Dave Leach died this
morning at o'clock of scarlet fever,
and will be buried tonight at $50.
"Mr. Leach and family were passing
through here by wagon on their way
to Idaho, about two weeks ago, when
the little one became sick and caused
them to remain.
'Mr. Leach having recently pur-
chased some land is without means,
and the expenses of the funeral will
be paid by the Odd Fellows Of which
order he is member
The family came from Morrow couu,
ty and was in Athena a couple Of
weeks ago stopping at the home of
W. G. Russell. MIR. Leach was OIL his
way to Adams county, Washington,
where he had purchased land.
Whether the child was exposed tc
the fever before the family started Oh
its overland trip, is not known.
The house in which the Leach's
stopped while in this city was occu
pied by the Russell family when scar
let fever was contagious and several
of the children had it there. The resi-
dence was properly fumigated and il
is not likely the Leach child contracted
the disease here.

GAVE HARTMAN SEVERE JOLT
Reprisal in Nebraska for Two-Cent-
Fare Law, Recoils.

AS soon as the Nebraska legislature
passed the two-cent fare bill every
railroad in the state began talking of
retrenchment and revenge. The Union
Pacific ordered work stopped ou its
rear million dollar headquarters build
iag, took off two of its finest and fast
cts trains and stopped work on half a
dozen improvements and cutoffs.
Burlington followed suit, Rock Islaud
clustered about taking off trains be-
cause the receipts had been cut.
"It's simply blind to attract at
tention to the passenger fares and
make the public forget the enormous
freight charged in the state" was the
expressed opinion of all sides in the
legislature.
Then the legislature got busy again
and began passing every railroad re-
form bill which had been introduced.
This was an awful jolt to Hartman
and others.
The wall of the railroad managers
began to die out. After the passage of
the two-cent fare bill the trains were
crowded to the limit. Union Pacific
announced that its two fast rains would
be put back at once; double-trackins
from Omaha westward went onward
without a stop; the Rock Island an
nounced that traffic had increased SO
that new train from Chicago to Dem
yer would, Ee put on; the Burlington
kept its trains running with people
standing in the aisles; the Norhwes-
tern did not make the threatened
changes in its trains; the Missouri
Pacific, which never ran but two
trains, Eegan to have it's coaches filled
with passengers, instead of running
almost empty, as they had been doing
for years..
The railroads "bluff" had been
called and the furry was over.
The service on all the lines is bet
ter than ever since the magnates have
learned that the best way to stop tht
reform legislative craze" is to keeI
the public in good humor by giving
Il the best that is to be had.

United States Attorney Bristol
Preparing Evidence.
AGAINST LAND LAW V|OLATORS
Federal Grand Jury Expected TO Con-
firm Charges--Made Against
Well Known Men.

Sensations for Portlaud citizens will
be furnished by the coming federal
grand jury which will undoubtedly
indict men whose names are known
tamiliarly not only in Portland but
in all parts of Oregon. says the Jour
nal.
Never before has such care been
taken by United States attorney in
preparing his evidence for the consid-
Grafton of the grand jury as has been
exercised by Attorney William G.
Bristol. aud it is said that as a result
of the work and study he has put in
for the past several months great
number of indictments will be re.
turned, including men whose reputa
tions have never before been ques-
toned.
1t is expected that altogether the
indictments will number over 90. OF
these, ~ will be against men who
have been arrested and ara either in
the county Jail or out on bail. OF
the remainder most, of them will be
against men who have been guilty of
violating the land laws, while a num-
her will be for other offenses against
the law.
It is said that Mr.. Bristol has been
preparing indictments for month,
which indicates that he is taking great
care to protect against all possible
mistakes in points of law and to pre-
sent to the graud jury such evidence
as will only serve to return indict-
ments. Heretofore the work Of the
grand jury has been carried out with
lack Of preparation on the part oi
the federal attorneys Office, due Chief
ly to a lack of time.
The present occasion will reveal al
entirely different state of affairs and
while anxious to protect the interest
of the public. it is safe to assume be
cause of the thoroughness which Mr.
Bristol has used, nothing will be dons
that will injure innocent persons.

IS THERE A CONTRACT WITH PERRYMAN /?

The 10th and 18th grades in the
high school department have been
abolished for the reason that the pu-
pills of those grades quit, because they
were accomplishing little or nothing
in the school work.
That Athena is ''getting it in the
neck,'' has been brought foroibly to
mind for some time. II would appear
that she had enough to contend with
in losing practically all her just
share of the Indian trade 10y TIE arbi-
trary practice in vogue at the Agency,
whereby the Indian rents are paid in
checks on certain Pendleton bank
losing all to Pendleton. for the Indian
trades where be draw his money.
Then she was hit hard blow along
with the other towns of the county,
in the spasmodic migration to Alberta.
Coming on the heels of all this Ill re-
mained for the town 10 be given an
other jolt, through the action Of the
school board employing an $S5 per
month man in the capacity of princi-
pal. when 500 per month and upward
was being offered for competent men Of
other schools Of like Importance. The
result is apparent.
! Nothing will emrty houses III a
town quicker than poor school. A
good school is town builder, and the
town that has one has few vacant
houses during the school year. Here
tofore, dwellings have been In demand
/ in Athena during the school term.
This demand came. as q rule, from
people who desired to reside in town
for the purpose of schooling their chill
dreD, and as consequence dwellings
offered for rent in the fall of the year
we're readily taken and occupied. A
marked contrast has been noted in
this respect during the past year.
There are numerous tenantless houses
to be found in Athena. and The
principal reason for this state of affairs
exists to dominant extent with the
unenviable status in which the public
school has been placed. under its pres
ent management.
The Athena press. [volume] (Athena, Umatilla County, Or.) 18??-1942, 1907-04-09

1t is now known that the board, bad
it felt SO disposed, could have dispensed
with Perryman's services long ago
without compromising its members in
the least, for the reason that no con
tract existed prior to the month of
November.
During that month, David Taylor,
who seriously considered forcing the
board to act in the removal of Perry
man, in company with W. ]. Gholson
went to David Williams. chairman of
the board and asked to see the pro.
visions contained in the contract
which the board had with the prin-
cipal Of the Athena school. Williams
submitted blank form, with the
statement that no contract had been
drawn up.
So far as concerns PerIyman. rela
tive to contract, he is unknown
officially or legally at the county school
superintendent's Office. for the reason
that copy of the contract--if any
con tract in fact exists--has not beet
placed on file there, or had not been,
up to Wednesday of last week.
Then the question naturally arises,
when complaint after complaint was
registered with the board, why did il
not take action? Why was the farce
prolonged until of its demoralized
conditions, the high school depart
ment was forced to suspend?
From financial point Of view, &13S
added to the principals salary for tht
school year would not have EN-.
barassed the district, when it is con
sidered that the district was taxed II
mills, and this $135 would hay'
brought the salary up to 500 pei
month with the probabilities that a
competent man could have been Sc
cured for the head of the school
Again, from financial point of view
Ito say nothing from an educationa
stand point--would not the distric
be far and away the gamer. had tb'
board long ago cut off $85 per month
in school salary?

Mrs Thompson Refuses to
Testify In Court.
SHE BELIEVED IN GODS LAW
Adventist Creed Fails to Hold in
Court of Justice and Woman
Jailed for Contempt.

Protesting that it was against the
law of God and the dictates of her
own conscience to testify in court of
justice on tie seventh day of the week,
which she claims to observe as the
Sabbath, Mrs. E. N. Thompson defied
Judge Thomas Fl. Brents of the super
ior court at Walla Walla, and went to
jail to serve her sentence of 20 days
for contempt.
When asked by the court if she did
not intend to obey the mandates of
the law the witness said it was con-
trary to the law of God to hold court
on the seventh day of the week. and
her conscience forbid her testifying or
having anything to do with such un-
holy proceedings. Rather than COM
NIT her to Jail Immediately for con-
tempt. the court tried to reason with
Mrs. Thompson and show her, that for
her to remain quiet and allow a man
to go to the penitentiary when she
might save him by telling what she
knew in regard to the case, would be
