some time past he had been connected

Berry Winship was tall. handsome, and
well known in the younger set in George

father was the head of the Meredith
Winship Company, the biggest merchants
and coal dealers in Georgetown. They
headed the combination that controlled

coal traffic
Ideas Conflict.
Many theories for the sad accident have
been advanced, but conflicting stories
have been told. Mr.. Winship but recently
purchased the horse, and was not an ex-
perienced rider Mr.. Weller stated that
while he is entirely at a loss to account
for the accident, it is possible that Mr..
Winship through inadvertence or by mis-
take. pulled the curb rein. instead of the
straisht-bit driving rein in making the
turn or IN an endeavOT to stop. lie says
the horse was a quiet one, and that they
were proceeding at a walk at the time

Mr.. Dro0p believes that the horse had
not been out for some time. and was
inclined to be fractions. and, with the
uncertainty of a horse, suddenly broke
control and unseated Mr.. Winship. Vary
Ing stories are told by others, who claim
10 have knowledge Of the horse. Whether
Mr.. Winship lost his balance and fell, or
whether he was thrown violently, either
by lunge or short stop will never be
known. 1t is certain. however. that he
was dragged for q considerable distance
and probably kicked, as when the horse
was caught II was found that the left
stirTup had been torn from the saddle
From this fact, il is believed that Mr.
Winships foot became entangled in the
stirrup. His skull was badly fractured.

Democratic Senators who have been II

the upper branch of Congress, TO sue
coed former Senator Blackburn, Of Ken

Chairman of the caucus. as it is Off
cially termed, carries with il the -recog
nized leadership for the Senate minority
The election of CulbersOn would break al
Democratic presidents, in that the Sena-
tor has Just commenced his second term
and IL has been the custom to select q
man with much longer service.
The Senator's supporters claim, how
ever. that he has conducted himself in the
Senate in a manner which has won such
general commentator from his fellow
members that the caucus Craftsmanship
may go 20 him without opposition, as #
did In the cases of his predecessors, Cor

STRIKE SITUATION BAD

paralysis is extending in all directions.
The Postal is in somewhat better shape
than the Western Union but neither

amount of business. The Western
Union has been almost entirely cut
off from communication with the
south since Monday. Conditions on
the wires to the east are little better.
The Postal succeeded in recovering
its Los Angeles wires but the coLges-
tion is so great that all business is ac-
cepted subject to indefinite delay.
The Western Union accepts business
to all points under the same condi-
tions. Very little business is being
transacted on the stock exchange to-
day and the little trading being done
showed declines. Striking operators

NO BASEBALL
CARNIVAL WEEK
CHANGE OF PLANS RESULTS IN
SPORTS COMMITTEE CIV
ING UP GAMES.

Owing to a change in the plans for
the Carnival, there will be no base
ball played here during Carnival week.
This was announced this morning by
William L. Van De Water who was q
member of the baseball committee
The reason for giving up the baseball
was that it has been decided to have
the Carnival open in the afternoons
as well as in the evenings.
1t was first the intention to hold the
Carnivals only in the evening during
Carnival week This would leave. no
entertainment during the afternoons
for the crowds which would come to
attend the Carnival and would assureT
good attendance at the proposed bal.
games. When it was decided to hold
the Carnival in the afternoon the Com
mercial Club Withdrew it's offer to pay
Mr. Van De Water $50 per game for
the players and equipment
and he does not feel the games would
attract a sufficient attendance ito pay
expenses.

OLD PIONEERS
HOLD REUNION
SPEND DAY AT BALLOU FARM,
FEASTiNG AND RECOUNT
ING EARLY ADVENTURES.

Pioneers of the Inland Empire as
reunion today.
Over two hundred of the pioneers
gathered at the court house at 9
o'clock this morning. Two trips. were
made by the special car chartered to
take them to the Ballou farm.
There sumptuous dinner was
served after which there were
speeches. The remainder of the af-
ternoon' was spent by the pioneers ir.
a social way. Many were the old
friends who met for the first time
since the last reunion. The courthouse
green presented an animated scene just
prior to the departure 'of the cars for
the Ballou farm. There were old and
young and in Instances families rep
resenting three generations, the bright
young faces of the children and grand
children of some of the early settlers
contrasting strongly with the time
furrowed faces of the older of the pio-
neers.
Some OF the pioneers who had taken
more kindly the passing of the long
years through which they struggled in
opening this country, were erect and
"spry' as the younger members of
their families. Others were bowed and
leaned heavily On the friendly cane,
but in the eyes of all there shone
a welcome to everyone and the pleas
ure felt in clasping the hands of old
friends, and at having day set apart
for themselves
Many of the old men went from
group to group shaking hands and
speaking a kindly word with everyone
Then there were the groups of old
men talking and laughing over scenes
and days of the past and the palm
was to him who could tell of the days
furthest gone

GOLDEN TROUT IN MEACHAM
PECULIAR SPECIES OF FINNY
TRIBE CAPTURED BY PEND
LETON MAN.

c. K CranstOn now has in his
possession several little trout taken
from Meacham creek, and they are a
source of wonder and admiration to
those who have seen them, says the
East Oregonian. Unlike all other
species of trout in this section the
little fish are light bodied and have
they are and how they came to be in
Meacham creek, is a mystery that has
not been solved.
According to Mr.. Cranston he
found the fish in Meacham about a
mile above where North Fork and
Meacham come together.~~ While fish
ing there week ago he saw some of
the strangely cOlored minnows, but
was unable to catcn any of them. Yes
terday he made a special trip to the
mountains and took along net to trap
them in. During the day he saw but
five of the strangers and succeeded in
capturing three of them. He imme-
diately placed them in alcohol and the
fish are now well preserved 1t is Mr
Cranston's intention to send one of
them to either the fisheries depart
ment or the Smithsonian institute for
classification.
The golden trout, which these Sc
cured by Mr.. Cranston closely re-
semble, are found only in one little
stream of California, according to au-
thorities. and it is stream that has
no outlet. one theory advanced for
the presence of the strange fish in
Meacham creek is that when the fish
cries agent placed the fry in Meacham
creek last year some golden trout be-
came mixed with the other species in
tended for the mountain stream.
