METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH.

METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH.
Only one life to live,
Only one hope to cherish,
And day by day we fritter away.
The allotted time that we have to stay,
Leaving that hope to perish.
Only n sky to see,
Only one world for gladness,
And We weakly bow in the Here and
Now,
Losing the joy we should claim somehow,
Clinging to WORKOUT Sadness"
How sad but how true are the
thoughts expressed in the poets verse.
Many a time is heard this thought in
middle or later life, "If1 had only n
more chance to live my life again, how
different l would live from my past"
But our Heavenly Father has seen best
not to give US more than one probation
and with it comes sufficient light, even
to the most ignorant, to live worthily SO
as to have His approval in this life and
in the life to come, eternal life. So no
one has any excuse for living a de-
bauched or unclean life. Dear reader,
whoever you may be, let me in, Gods
stead, admonish you to live like a man
or like a woman in the fullest sense Of
that word, always having Jesus Christ
before you to lead you into all truth.
Come to the Sabbath services where you
may learn the true way, and do not fer
get the 90 minute song service at 7:3o.

Pilot Rock Record, who shot Bob Es-
tes Saturday night in Pendleton has
been instructed by his attorneys,
Judge Fee and J.. Fl. Raley. not to

Inc crime committed by him. As a
result, newspaper reporters have been
unable to secure an interview with

has been prisoner in the county Jail.

of land Office patronage, will be in

AS IN THE DAYS OF OLD
An Athena Conveyance Creates Con-
siderable Interest in Walla Walla.

"All aboard for Pendleton" was the
cry heard in front of the Dacres
hotel this morning, says the States
man.
1t was not the driver of the hotel
bus that was giving it either, but one
of crowd OF travelling men crowding
into lumber wagon which had been
chartered to take the crowd to Pendle-
ton.
Many years ago, before the days of
railroads, the Stine house corner saw
sights like the one it saw this morning.
Drummers in twentieth century tog-
gerry, farmers who had to get homo
and some Umatilla braves with war
paint on their faces to protect them
from snowburn were in the good ma
tured bunch which attracted so much
excitement about 10 O'Clock this morn
Jug.
The scheme was engineered through
by some drummers who were obliged
to get to Pendleton, but were held up
here for several days on account of
the washouts on the railroad lines.
The outfit belonged to J. B. Bell
and o. H. Burton. two young citizens
of Athena, aud was brought over from
that place last night for the purpose
of making the trip to Pendleton today.
The excursionists started away from
the hotel yelling and laughing. Even
the Indians smiled stoical smile.
The crowd which gathered in front of
the hotel gave three cheers as the start
was made which SO frightened
butchers horse left standing in front
of the Main street market that he tore
down the street at 2:40 lope and
was not captured until he had gone
block.
Bell and Burton expected to cover
the so miles between Walla Walla
and Pendieton before dark, dis the
roads are in fair condition.

Went to Old Fort Walla Walla
Away Back In AS,
ONLY ONE HOUSE WAS THERE
Built an Opera House Out of Hand
Hewed Timber and Played to
Pioneer Audiences.

Among the guests at the st. Nichols
hotel Wednesday waiting for convey
ance to Walla Walla, was John Tenn
pany, the veteran veterinary surgeon
of the 9th cavalry, U. S. A, which
is at present stationed at Fort Riley,
Kansas.
John Tempany, with snow white
hair and grizzled military mustache,
bears his weight of long years of sci
vice well, and it will not be long be-
fore his name will be enrolled on the
retired list.
Sitting in the hotel lobby, the old
gentleman became retrospective and
looking back over the long chain of
years linked in memory of the days
of old, the days of gold" he said that
he came to Walla Walla in 58. There
was but one house there at that time.
1t was inhabited by an Irishman and
Jew.
Mr. Tempany helped build the old
fort, and from hand sawed clab- boards
taken from timber on Mill creek, built
and played the first opera house Walla
Walla ever had. The stage was even
made out of slabs smoothed on one
side by diligent labor with "iack"
plane. Mr.. Tempany also built tho
first opera house in Vancouver, Wash.
and it was constructed after the man
ner of the one at Fort Walla Walla.
There are but few men in Walla
Walla at the present time who were
there when John Tempany, veteran
soldier and pioneer first looked on the
valley of many waters. Senator
Ankeny was there herding sheep and
later laid the foundation Of his for
tune by operating pack train to and
from the mines, and still later, mer-
chandising in small way in the up
per country.
His connection with the regular
army service has taken Mr.. Tempany
into almost every fort il the United
States, and in the days of Indian
fighting, he passed through many
thrilling experiences.
The 9th cavalry will soon go to the
Philippine Islands and Mr.. Tempany
has Eeen detailed on duty at Seattle
where he will inspect and buy horses
for the government. His family reside
in Walla Walla. He is the father of
Henry Tempany, baseball player and
manager of the Walla Walla Boost
or" team, which played series of
games in Athena last year.

w. Bailey of Pendleton, attorneys for

quarter section of land owned by w.
J. Wilkinson. In addition to Will
kinson, McCourt g. Phelps, w. B.

YET ANOTHER FLOOD
Sufficient Snow West Of Town
For High Waters.
CHINOOK FREAK IN EVIDENCE
Stubble Fields to the Westward and
Northwest Holding From Two
to Six Inches of Snow

Iu the coming of the chinook wind
several days ago notioa BILE freak was
in evidence.
The balmy wind first struck the
foothills and then swirled over a mar
row strip of territory of which Athena
is the center, extending from the Una
tllla to the Columbia river. Had the
chinook been of general application as
it usually is, there would undoubtedly
have been the greatest food in the
country's history. AS it was, Wild
Horse creek at Pendleton, was higher
than ever known. West and north
west Of town, extending clear into the
Cold Springs country, there yet re-
mains sufficient snow to cause an
other freshet, should weather condi
tions be favorable. The stubble fields
are holding from two to four inches of
packed snow, and either a chinook
wind or warm rain would again
start water rushing down the hillsides

LIGHT FOR FIRE DEPARTMENT
Electricity Now Illuminates Arhena's
Three Fire stations

fThe Athena fire department now has
an all night electric light service at
the three fire stations.
The Preston Parton Milling COM
pany furnishes power for the service
gratis, the city paying for the wiring
and installation only. The department
stations of Hose company No. 1, Hose
company No. 2 and the Hook aud
Ladder company are each Lighted with
a 32 candle power incandescent light,
which is sufficient for all purposes.
"The installation of the lights at
the different stations will make at
least minute in difference in time
when making run to fires," said one
of the firemen. ''You can see how to
hook onto things now. Before, we
had to prowl around in the dark to
find the fire-tighting apparatus. Now
it is different.
