East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1907-05-13

There was a ball game here yester-
day afternoon and 1t proved an in
teresting one, though but a small
crowd was out to see 1t.
BY holding the first team down to
six runs and leading them during the
fore part of the game, the has beens"
proved that they have not yet forgot
ten the art OF ball playing. Lorimer,
pitcher for the Old Timers. was the
star of that team. With Frost behind
the bat and good support from the
infield, he succeeded in keeping any,
one from reaching first base until the
last half Of the third inning. No runs
were made by the first team men until
the fifth inning, when they evened the
score by bringing two men home.
In the first inning the Old Timers
had secured two runs and thereupon
their rooters went wild. But after the
fifth inning the superior work of the
regular team began to count and the
game was theirs, though II was neces-
sary for them to keep on their toes
until the finish. Hanahan, pitcher for
the winning team. played in poor luck
during the first few innings, but sue
ceeded in striking out 10 men during
the game.
The following is the game in de-

WASHINGTON VERSION
OF UMATILLA AFFAIR.

Correspondent of Portland Oregonian
Says the Superintendent as on the
Toboggan Slide'-Inspector Davis
Reported Adversely on Conditions at
Umatilla Agency-Successor VIII Be
Named at Once.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1907-05-13

With information direct from the
offices of the Indian department at
Washington, the Washington cores
pnodent of the Portland Oregonian
wires his paper the following graphic
account of the removal of Superinten-
dent o. C. Edwards of the Umatilla
reservation which was reported in the
East Oregonian on Saturday evening.
The correspondent says:
Major o. C. Edwards, agent in
charge of the Umatilla Indian agency,
is on the toboggan. His terrific tenn
per, his arrogant manner and his
trouble making disposition became un-
bearable both to the Indians of the
reservation and the people of Pendle-
ton, and they built such a hot fire
under the major that the department
had to drop him
Charges were preferred against Ed
wards last October. alleging unfair
methods in handling the money of In
dians, arrogance, vindictiveness, pro-
family and drunkenness. 1t was charg-
ed that. because of these various fall
ings and because of his utter lack Of
sympathy for the Indians and his ever
present desire to pick a quarrel, he
was unfit for agent.
Special Agent Charles Davis was
sent out to investigate and his report
was decidedly unfavorable to Ed
wards; in fact, sustained most of the
charges. Yet nothing was done. Mr..
Davis report remained unacted upon
for more than a month.
Congressman Ellis, who resides at
Pendleton and has personal knowledge
of the facts, wrote Senator Bourne
calling his attention to the situation
and asking him to secure action. The
senator took the matter up in person,
the report was brought forward for
consideration and the telegraph was
called into play, with the result that
Edwards resignation was forthcoming
today and was promptly accepted. His
successor will be chosen Monday and
will take charge as soon as he can get
to Pendleton.
Advices received here state that Ed
wards was boasting that he had a pull
at Washington and would remain at
umatilla year longer. IL he so desir-
ed, and that he would have promo
ton at the end Of that time.
The most serious charges against
Major Edwards was that 1t was i'm
possible to lease Indian land unless
the lessee was patron of the Com
mercial National bank Of Pendleton.
and that It was only possible for per-
sons connected directly or Indirectly
with the bank to buy heirship land,
though it was required to be sold at
public auction to the highest bidder.

School Children VIII Donate to Arc.
tic Explorer.

Today County Superintendent
Frank X. Welles has been engaged
in mailing circular letters regarding
"Peary Day" to be observed in the
schools Of Oregon on May 22. The
movement to raise money for the
purpose Of eQuipping the Peary ex.
pedition has been started by the state
board of education and the following
Is the text of the letter being sent to
the various schools OF the state:
To the Teachers of Oregon;
Commander Robert E. Peary, the
world-famous Arctic explorer, has
appealed to the American people to
help raise fund of 100000 which
he needs to defray the general ex-
renses of his forthcoming expedition
in search of the Meth pole. He has
gone so far north that he feels sure
that he will he able to solve the per-
picking mysteries Of the unknown
polar regions On the contemplated
expedition, provided funds can be
raised to finance It.
II has been suggested that this
amount might be raised through
small contributions by the school
children of the United States. Mr..
Peary has approved of this plan and
would DO pleased l. the school chill
dren Of Oregon would take the ini-
tiative in this matter. It is especial
ly fitting that thy do so. for the rea.
son that the masts and deck of his
ship, the Roosevelt" are made of
Oregon pine, and that his surgeon is
an Oregon man.
Tie state board Of education hear
lilly approves Of the plan to allow the
sch ool children of Oregon to help
raise the fund, and the board sug-
sests that you as teacher impress
upon the minds Of your pupils the
importance and significance Of this
undertaking. Further, the state
board designates Wednesday, May
%, as "Pcary Day" in all the schools
of the state, and every teacher
should call this matter to the atten-
ton Of the boys and girls, and invite
them, on that day to make their con-
tributicns to the "Peary North Pole
Fund" No child is to be asked to
give mGre than one cent, but they
are TO be allowed to give as much as
O. nickel II they see fit. And they
are further allowed to solicit among
their friends for assistance, so that
the state of Oregon may make as
good showing as possible in. this
great national movement. Interest
and enthusiasm can be aroused by
having ''Peary Talks in the schools,
discussions and studies of the splen-
did achievements he has made.
The money contributed in each
school en- "Peary Day" should be
turned over by you to the principal
or county superintendent, who will
in turn see that 1t is handed to the
state board. 1t will then be for
warded by US to Commander Peary.
II is advisable that no time he lost
in explaining the movement to the
| children, and the board Of education
is confident that the boys and girls
will enter heartily into the scheme.
IL they are given clearly to UNDER
stand that their pennies and nickels
| may be the means Of discovering the
north pele.

LAY OVER AT UMATILLA.
O. r. & n. Conductors Not Allowed
10 "Double" Back from Spokane

O. r. e n. Conductors Not Allowed
10 "Double" Back from Spokane
Run.
Since the new railroad rate and
service law went into effect short
time ago, o. r. & N passenger con-
ductors on the Pendleton-Portland
runs have been laying over in UNA
tilla, when on the Spokane run, in
stead of doubling" back to Port
land as formerly.
The way the runs are arranged
the men on the Pendleton-Portland
r,ln take the Spokane flyer from
Portland every other trip. Formerly
they run until they met the south
bound Spokane train when the con-
ductors changed and each crew took
the opposite train to its destination
the Portland men returning to
Portland and the Spokane men re-
turing to Spokane without rest;
making a longer continuous term Of
service than is allowed by the new
law.
Now the Portland crew comes out
to Umatilla and lays over until the
foil owing day, when It returns to
Portland and the Spokane crew does
likewise, returning to Spokane after
2i.hour lay over.
This brings the Pendleton con-
ductors here less frequently than for
merly, as they are required to lay
over "a hours In Umatilla and con-
sequently lose run on their return
to Portland. There is much dissatis
faction over the new arrangement,
but the new law will not permit OF
the former practice and 1t. is not
known vet how the matter will be
~emedied. All the conductors have
horles either in Portland or Spokane
and prefer to lay over at home.

SALADS WILD AND TAME.
BY coRNELIA c. BEDFORD.

To speak of salad, or in fact any dish
or article of food as tame" when the
word is intended for any other reason
than, perhaps, lack OF seasoning, seems
peculiar, wet in many country districts,
especially among mOuntaineers, the ex-
preston is a common one and has ref
erence to some vegetable or fruit which
is cultivated and so distinguished from
that provided by nature-as tame
strawberries, " tame cherries etc.
Spring brings to us material both
wild and cultivated which may be read
lily used in salads and which, coming
at this season are to be recommended
for their tonic effect on systems enerv-
ated by heavy winter foods. The town
dweiler can find in the nearby market
lettuce-both dollhouse grown and from
southern gardens; escarple from the
same sources; the tiny sweet leaf of the
fictitious or cOrn-salad; watercress from
specially flooded fields Out in the
country markets are an unknown guam
tity, but from fields and brookside
spells can be gathered There is the
heart leaf of the dandelion, delight
fully bitter; the acid sOrrel or sour
grass; the spicy cress and brook mint
The young tender leaf of any plant
whose flavor appeals to the taste may
be used as the basis of a salad and,
when the supply is abundant, those

plants which are delicate and young
can be covered with stones. boards or
a layer of sand: in a week or ten days
they will be prettily blanched and most
delicate in flavor.
Market lettuce is of two general types
the round or cabbage leaf, the long
or romaine, also called COS. All salad
greens should be carefully and thor
oughly cleaned, for during their growth
they are highly fortified and in many
cases this fertilizer, coming in direct
contact with the plant leaves deposit
on them germs which, if taken into the
system, may result in typhoid and 9TH
er diseases. Each leaf should be care
fully examined and after cleansing
should be well rinsed In fresh cold wa
ter. Where leaves are slightly wilted
they may often be restored to crispness
by leaving them in cold water for half
an hour or more.
When receiving their final prepara-
ton for the table, salad green's should
be drained, then laid on soft cloth
and patted quite dry. This is especial
ly necessary when a French or oil
dressing is to be used, as wet leaves
repel and shed the oil.
To prepare a plain dressing put in a
saucer or shallow dish a half teaspoon
full of salt, a quarter of a teaspoonful
of white pepper and four tablespoOnfuls

THE IDEAL NURSERY.

1t is most desirable that the child
from the first should have a room Of
his own where he can play without
hurting things. Formerly the least de-
sirable room IN the house was always
set aside for the nursery, and fuTni-
ture which was not wanted anywhere
else in the house was put into it.
Nowadays in the best homes the
nursery is the most carefully planned
loom in the house. 1t should always
have sunlight, for the sun vitalizes The
air and kills the germs. The windows
should always be open. for ventilation
prevents disease. To keep out the dust
and to prevent draughts have 4 Venti-
iating board mailed across the foot of
the window.
Have small furniture with round cor
ners. Imagine our discomfort if we
we're obliged to live among furniture
designed for the use of giants twelve
feet high. Have no unwashable cur
tains or dTapeTies. Keep the room
simple.
In n milliOn2ire's house in New York
the nursery has tiled walls, and on
each tile is painted a scene from
Mother Goose" 1t is enough to wOr-
ry and distress the mind of any child.
The tiles are beautiful for hygiene, but
very expensive.
Leave the walls bare. tinted in some
plain, delicate shade, perhaps. Have
a few pictures which are truly artistic,
for the child's taste for the good in art
can be trained from the very first. 1t
is a curious thing that little children
often choose copies of the MadOnnas
