UPON HIS C0UNTENANcE
John Scruggs Secures Warrant for
Arrest of Al Maxwell, Formerly
of Scotch TaiIors, for
Battery

A warrant was sworn out yesterday
for the arrest of AL Maxwell, an en-
ploye of the Scotch tailor shop at $50
South Spring street The complaint was
sworn to by John Scruggs, who charges
Maxwell with battery. Scruggs alleges
Maxwell knocked him down and stamped
or. his face. Scruggs' countenance bore
testimony to the charges which he al
;eges against the former employe. Max
we'll had been employed by the firm for
some months, but had a quarrel with
the management and was discharged.
This led to a quarrel which ended in a
fist fight in which Scruggs alleges Max

The Musical World
BY Genevra Johnstone-Bishop

A municipal band is talked of-Los An
N geles ought to have one and a good
IA one but let US have an American
director. We have several excellent
musicians in our city to select from.
Hardly one director In our city today can
speak good English and, fails utterly
even in his tempo when he attempts to
play our nationalairs.
Two works OF Chicago composers have
made quite hit "The Passing of Sum
mer' by Rossetter Cole-and THE
Paschal joy by Oscar Deis. They were
first presented by L. CASTOR Gottschalk
in Chicago.
Herbert Witherspoon, whose every ap-
pearance is a sensational success, will
be one Of the attractions for us this sea-
son in recital work.
In the thirty-one years of his short life
Franz Schubert wrote not less than four
hundred and fifty songs for single voice
with piano accompaniment. Often he
would wrl,e a half dozen in single
day. "As soon as / finish one 1 begin
another he said to a friend. II
can express myself in song as easily as
most people express themselves in
speech"
Helen Hale is the prima donna in the
new musical comedy "A Yankee Tourist"
taking the part of Blanche Bailey. Miss
Hale is California girl.
David Bispham will appear in Los An
geles in the early spring in recitals and
also expects to give "The Vicar of
Wakefield
Felix Motif of the Munich royal opera,
has been invited to conduct the first
French production of "ParsifaP' at
Brussels in 1918, on the occasion of the
Tooth anniversary of Wagners birthday.
He has refused, however, saying as long
cannot conduct it anywhere else.

o. r. & y. REFUSES TO PAY.
Brings Suit in Walla WaIla to Set
Aside Assessment.

The Walla Walla Bulletin says:
An action was begun in the United
States federal court this morning by
the o. r. & n. Railroad company to
restrain the county of walla Walla
from collecting excess taxes now de-
lipquent for the year 1908, in the
sum of s1O,351.SO.
In its complaint filed in the office
of Deputy United States Clerk E. r.
Wright today, the o. r. &; n. company
sets up the allegation that its taxes
for 1904 were raised by the board of
equalization from $500 to 10000
per mile and it tenders the amount of
taxes on the valuation made by the
assessor. The total amount of the
taxes for the year 1904 on the valua-
ton set by the board of equalization
amounts to $35,646,39,
While all the reasons in the COM
plant are of technical nature, 1t is
understood that the railroad COM
pany is preparing to make a vigorous
fight to avoid the payment of taxes
| on the valuation of 10000 a mile.
This is borne out by the array of legal
talent representing the road.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1907-01-12

j. d. Kirk. the Ukiah merchant,
who was lost in the mountains for
three days recently and nearly perish
ed, has been in the city today, having
come in from Ukiah last night. To
the East oregonian he told the fol-
loving account Of his hazardous ad-
venture:
81 left Pilot Rock about noon and
that evening rode about 10 miles up
started to so across to east Birch
creek. 1 had never been over the
trail before and guess it was farther
across than I supposed it was. It
became dark on ME and l stopped and
leaned against a tree to keep warm.
Later on it became moonlight and
being cold I decided to travel on.
Mounting my horse I started but after
going several hours l finally wound
up again at the tree where l had
rested. l decided then to wait until
morning. l searched my pockets for
matches and found 1 had just six.
made a fire so as to keep from
freezing during the night.
THE next day l travelled steadily
all day long. The snow was three feet
deep and it was hard for the horse
or mvself 10 get through. Often we
could not go 10 feet at a time with
out resting. The snow covered the
ground so that no roads or trails could
be seen. I came across ~ C RAIDER"
sign and concluded that it must be
beside a road. l then tried TO follow
the same out, but after going a few
miles found the sign again staring me
in the face. / then decided to try
a different direction and started again.
Several times found myself travelling
in a circle and night came on again.
l made another fire and camped for
the night. 1 had no food at all with
mo but did not suffer from hunger
after the first day, as I became fever
ish, However. ! was gradually be-
coming weaker and I could hardly
keep my mouth moist by eating snow.
"On the second morning the sun
came up in the south, according to
nv judgment and I began to feel un-
easy. I then decided to try to back
track my way out. 1 did so and after
awhile returned to where I had camp
ed the first night. then pushed on
the best I could, leading my horse,
for I could not ride him any longer.
but soon found that I could not get
out by back tracking, as I had travel
ed in a circle before knowing I was
lost. This made me more uneasy and
l remarked TO my horse, Pony, l
guess We ire up against it,
FINALLY I came to one of the forks
of Tirch creek and decided to stop
back tracking and go down the creek
Towards evening I came in sight OF
the Warner place near the sawmill
did no; see the place until within
200 Yards of it and l was almost ex-
hausted from the exposure and fever
l believe I would have become deliri.

While the excessive cost of the gov
ernment model road built in Umatilla
county the past season will perhaps
prevent the construction of any more
in this county at least at the same
price, about $4,000 per mile, yet the
cost of the same kind of road in the
state of Washington was oven higher
than here. a dispatch from Olympia
says of the cost of the model sections
of good roads in that state:
The state of Washington was given
the benefit of two experiments in road
building under the direction of the
government bureau of public roads
during the last year. One of these
experiments was made at Pullman
and the other is. still under way on the
Van dc Ninter road between Seattle
and Tacoma.
The road at Pullman is of macadam
construction. having n total length Of
147S feet and width of IA feet. The
construction was begun on March 80
and completed In the latter part OF
May. Tho annual report of the direc-
tor of the office of public roads gives
the total cost of this piece of work
at S9927.iS. The cost of labor was
$3.50 per day and teams We're hired
at $3.50 rcr day.
The total surface of improvement
was 1929 square Yards. making the
average cost per square yard $1.27,
which would foot up to approximately
S10,45S.S1 per mile. This is consider
eel an enormous expenditure for a road
of this kind, being caused by the ex-
cessive cost of teams and labor.
The experiment being conducted be-
tween Seattle and Tacoma is of the
same nature as the Pullman road,
being constructed of macadam. This
road, however. is TO be considerably
longer than the other, having a total
length of 600 feet and a width of 1G
feet. Not having been completed by
the end of the last fiscal year no ap-
proXimates of cost are available.
