MUSCATINES BALK
AT PLAYING ENTS

Owing to the fact that the members of
the Entire Nous basketball five are not reg
istered with the Amateur Athletic Union,
the manager of the Muscatine 0a.) five.
which was scheduled to meet the Harrison
ians at Jacobs's Hall last night, refused to
allow his men to compete against the West
Hudson aggregation. This action was also
taken at Paterson Wednesday night, when
the Mlscatines were preparing to tackle
the Crescents.
1t was d SAD disappointment to the crowd
which had gathered to witness what woul1
doubtless been a fast and close con-
test. The MJscatines are making a tour Of
the country, and. SO their manager claims,
cannot afford to take chances of spelling
their rograin by getting into dihihultieg
with the A. A.. u. There seems no reason N
doubt the ability of the visitors, and there
was general regret expressed because theee
was no gnme between The Entire Mons five
and the Iowans. To tine unprejudiced or
locker 1t probably seemed somewhat queer
that 1t had not been discovered before the
arrangements for the game were made that
the visitors insisted on playing strictly in
accordance with A. A. U. regulations.

ROLLER RINK ACCIDENT FATAL
Popular Young High School Student
Dies From Injuries Received
While Skating.

Spinal meningitis thought to have
been induced by a fall while roller
skating several weeks ago, resulted in
the death of Miss Hazel belong, of
the freshman class of Walla Walla
high school yesterday evening at 8
o'clock
Miss belong. who was Is years OF
age, was daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. w
F. belong of Wallula. She was taken
to the Walla Walla hospital several
days ago for treatment but the at
tack of the spinal trouble was too Sc
we're to be overcome. After her fall
at the armOry she was able to attend
classes at the high school, but suffered
more or less from the fall and it is
the opinion of many of her friends
that it was the indirect cause of the
death of the young student.
The funeral will be held Monday af-
tern0on and will be attended by the in
Structors of the high school and the
freshman class in a body. The body is
now lying at the Cookery parlors

HARD KNOCK FOR SHAKESPEARE
Enlightened SiIesian Critic Disposes Of
1.-THE Merchant of Venice" for Good.

BERLIN, March Sit is an article
of faith with many Germans that the
fatherland has a fuller appreciation of
Shakespeare than the poets fellow
countrymen. Whatever may be the
case in Berlin and other intellectual
centers, the provinces lag behind to
judge from the notice of the Oppelner
lettings dramatic critic on the pro-
ductiOn of THE Merchant of Venice
He writes:
The piece is $50 years old and there
is nothing remarkable about it. After
the trial scene the Jew, 'Shylock" dis
appears. Surely the punishment melted
out to him is too severe. The idea of
a woman pleading in court of justice
is absurd and there is no satisfactory
ending to the plot"

Clever and Dainty But No Match
For Local Players
WALLA WALLA TEAM WON IL TO 5
VINCENT GORMAN AND ALMA
YEEND RESPONSIBLE FOR
MANY POINTS MADE.

Sheer superiority of weight gave the
girls of the local high school a vic
tory over the little lassies from the
Pendleton high school in a pretty
game at the high school gymnasium
yesterday evening. The team work of
the visitors from Oregon was very
clever and the quiCkness of their action
excited the admiration of the Walla
Walla audience which generously dis
tributed cheers all around.
That Walla Walla got the best end
of the II to score which was
chalked up on the blackboard at the
end of the second half was due to the
fact that Walla Walla girls are more
buXOm than the kind that grow in the
WebfOot state. Although the visit
ing team had only been practicing one
week their team work was more than
fair but the work of the Walla Walla
team in wOrsting Weston and in play
ing other games this season made
them dead next" to themselves on the
gymnasium floor last night and the
result was a foregone conclusion from
early in the first half.
Misses Alma Yeend and Vincent Cor
man were the stars for the local team.
Following is the lineup of the teams:
Pendleton-Misses Jordan, Folsom,
Johnson, Carey, Temple and Hill.
Coach Penland accompanied the team.

buried with some difficulty yesterday.
1t was that of Mrs. William Maurer,
81 years old, the wife of Detective
William Maurer of the West Chicago

derrick was fastened to the roof of the
house, and the sash and frames of the
window had to be removed. A special
casket. 81. inches in width and weigh

was bound with iron hoops, and re-
quired 10 men to carry it.
For seven years Mrs. Maurer had
not left her home because of her in
ability to pass through the doorway.
During the greater part of the time she
was in a seemingly dying condition,

KLAMATH DRAWS attention
Government to Spend $4,000 During
Coming Summer on Indian
Charges.

KLAMATH FALLS. Or, Mch. O.
The klamath Indian reservation is to
receive considerable attention from the
department during the ensuing year.
The large irrigation system. which will
reclaim several thousand acres of val
liable agricultural and pasture lands,
is to be constructed as soon as the
weather will permit the carrying on of
the work. This system. when COM
pleted, will make tremendous incre-
ment in the value of the lands owned
by the Klamath Indians and will add
a large acreage to the producing area
of klamath county.
The large training school which the
department has decided to maintain at
the Klamath agency will be a notable
Improvement. Major H. G. Wilson,
walton, has received departmental in
structions to put up all necessary
buildings and make all necessary ar
engagements at the Klamath agency for
best training school in the Indian ser
vice. During the coming summer 1T
least $4,000 will be spent in the con-
struction of the two new buildings
and the establishment of light, water
and sewerage systems. The Indian
school now being conducted at YainoX
agency will be abandoned as soon as
the new school is completed, which will
be about September 1 next.
The chief object of the training
school will be to teach the Indians
dairying. numbering and stock raising
The reservation includes many valu-
able stock ranches and places espe-
cially adapted to dairying. The timber
supply is almost inexhaustible and is
of a superior grade. Uncle Sans
wards now have two small sawmills
in operation and saw all of the lumber
used in the many new buildings being
erected on the reservation.
