GOOD WATER PRESSURE.
New North Side Mains Carry Ade-
quate Supply and Pressure.

Pressure tests made at the fire hy-
drants along the new water main ex-
tending up the north side hill show
that the new system will give a very
efficient service. Several days ago
William Sutherland water commits
sioner tested the pressure at the cor
ner of jefferson and Wilson streets.
The pressure was found to be 40
pounds per square inch and according
to the calculations of Geary Kim
brell, city engineer this is but two
pounds less than the theoretical pres
sure for that altitude. The loss is due
to friction in the pipe line.
At the corner by the E. P. Marshall
residence the pressure is now 5S
pounds, whereas under the old main
it was never greater than 35 pounds
The new main is not tapped by
consumers until the top of the hill is
reached and most of the taps are on
a down grade. Consequently the resi-
dences higher up will not be shut off
from water through the excessive use
of it by parties below them.

Small Class Passes Dental Examina-
tion-Raise Fund TO Prosecute
Dentists Without Licenses.

DR.. E. a. Vaughan returned home
last evening from Portland, where,
as a member of the state board of
dental examiners, he served during
the recent examinations for admis-
sion to practice. Out of a total class
of 13, four applicants were passed by
the board, while nine failed to make
satisfactory showings.
At meeting of the municipal dem
lists association held following the
examinations 1t was decided to raise
fund of $4,000 for the purpose Of
prosecuting amateur dentists who
practice without first qualifying by
passing the state examination. The
fund is to be raised from among the
dentists Of the state and a competent
attorney will be employed to make
complaints against illegitimate prac-
titioners reported from this state.

Pendleton meat markets are going
to make a protest against the passage
OF the ordinance driving poultry and
poultry killing out OF the city limits.
1t is claimed by the keepers Of the
butcher shops and markets Of the
city that the killing of poultry in the
back OF shops, under proper restric-
tions and with careful handling, is not
in the least offensive and is in no way
menace.
All of the killing rooms are direct
ly connected with the sewers and are
cleaned thoroughly after every kill
ing so that there are no signs Of the
work remaining.
1t is estimated that 10000 chickens
are handled annually I'm Pendleton, at
an average price to the raisef of
$3.50 per dozen, making total of
about $4,000 per year distributed di-
rectly to the farmers in this vicinity
for chickens alone to say nothing Of
the large sums paid for turkeys,
ducks and geese.
Inc poultry tTdue is ulStTlDuleu
among the four or five shops in the
city and none Of them have suffic-
lent business to justify them in main
tanning a slaughter room and an extra
man outside of the city limits and so
If the ordinance is passed II will prac-
tically stop the slaughter Of poultry
here and will have the effect of shut
ting off this market for live chickens.
Cold storage poultry would then have
to be handled almost exclusively, they
claim.
The Pendleton shops all claim that
none of the bad odors often detected
come from poultry killing, but that
tallow rendering is responsible for
the odors.
The chicken killing rooms are kept
in good condition and all the shops
which handle dressed chickens are
well equipped for the business and
take every precaution to keep their
rooms and equipment clean and SAN
itary.
In many of the eastern cities thous-
ands of turkeys and chickens are

Last night Billy Monee, the barber
attempted to revive the custom OF
shooting up" the town by empty
/ ing a revolver in the air and he is
now in the city Jail, repenting of his
behavior Furthermore he is in dan
ger Of being charged with larceny,
for it is alleged he stole the gun with
which he created the disturbance.
Monee is a brother of Jack Monee,
shot by James Sawyer near Juniper
last summer, and according to the
police he was drunk when he went
wild last night. He took the gun
from one of the women in the "Orien-
tai" on Cottonwood street and rush.
ing into that street proceeded to
break the stiffness Of the cool night
by firing five shots in the direction
of the stars.
Hearing the shooting, the two night
officers, John and Clarence Kearney,
hurried to the scene, coming from
opposite directions. According to
John Kearney, three of the shots
fired were not elevated to the prop
er extent and he could hear them
going over his head. When he saw
John Kearney coming towards him,
Monee started to run in the opposite
direction and Immediately fell into
the strong hands of Clarence Kear-
ney. The gun was then taken from
him he was locked up in the city
Jail.

Porch Climbers Make Big Haul.

The third $1,000 robbery in differ
ent households to occur in this city
within the last two or three weeks
was pulled off Wednesday night,
when the household OF Archie S.
Ash. 1912 Fifth avenue. was looted
Of $1,000 worth of diamonds and 9TH
er jewelry, the property OF Mrs. Ash,
says a Spokane paper.
The Ash robbery, following so
closely on that of DR.. H. w. Allen
and James Graham, leads the police
to believe that the same crew OF
porch climbers and expert door anA
window men have pulled off all three
tricks. In each case the robbery was
done with much deftness. scarcely a
clue being left.

Of SCAB AFFECTED SHEEP
VERY SMALL

I All the inspection thus far, he says,
has been in sections where scab pre-
vailed. None Of the "clean" districts
have yet been reported and when all
returns are in the percentage affect
ed with scab will be found very small
1t is expected by DR.. Mcclure that
the reinspection will be concluded by
the latter part Of the month or early
in December. Another range inspec-
ton will be made in the spring, but
no general inspection will be requir-
ed next season unless the sheep COM
mission deems such necessary. All
sheep found infected this fall have
been dipped twice under federal su-
pervision. N%"NN
When the inspections were made
prior to the annual dipping last
spring, It was found that over 21 per
cent OF the sheep Of the state were
scabby.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1907-11-09

That the complete report on the re-
inspection Of Oregon sheep now being
made will show but two per cent af-
fected with scab is predicted by DR..
S. w. Mcclure, head of the federal
quarantine work being carried on in
the northwest.
Since the sheep were brought back
from the summer ranges in the
mountain the federal deputies have
been busy making another inspection
Of the bands to ascertain the result Of
the general dipping to which all sheep
Of the state were subjected last fall.
Thus far, according to DR.. Mcclure,
his men have inspected total of
668,333 and out OF that number IT.
66S have been found affected with
scab. This is a percentage Of trifle
over four per cent, but according to
the federal man It is not correct
criterion as to the final percentage.

In the dizzy whirl of the railroad
war In which Stuyvesant Fish is en-
gagged at this time, he yet has time
to write a personal letter to PEN
dleton man on a reminiscence Of the
Illinois Central's early life, when 1t
was a struggling little system and
General George b. Mcclellan, after
ward a famous union general, was
vice, president and general manager
OF 1t.
Recently the East Oregonian print
ed a letter written by General Nc
Clellan In 1858, concerning the bor-
rowing of $4,000 by the Illinois Gen.
tral from a station agent named
Cow, for the purpose Of erecting a
depot building at Golden, ILL.,
The letter belongs to George H.
Clark of this city and he sent copy
of the East Oregonian containing 1t
to Mr.. Fish. This morning Mr..
Clark received a pleasant personal
letter from the railroad magnate,
thanking him for the paper and CIV
ing further details of the services Of
General Mcclellan with the Illinois
Central. Mr. Fish signed the letter
in person and wrote several words
in explanation at the bottom of the
letter which shows his interest in
the matter.
After giving some facts about the
connection of General Mcclellan
with the Illinois Central, Mr.. Fish
says: 1t may interest you to know
that tho present general office
building OF the Illinois Central in
Chicago, now covers the ground oc-
cupied by the residence in which
General Mcclellan lived while vice
president of the system. 1t is sit
uated at No. 1, Park Row, and the
company purchased 1t in 1891.

vIOLINs OF OREGON WOOD.

The Portland Evening Telegram
says of the manufacture of violins
from oregon woods:
Oregon red cedar and yellow pine
make the best kind of material for
violins, according to F. E. Coulter,
who discussed the matter before the
Manufacturers association last even
ing. Mr.. Coulter stated that the Ore
gon wood, properly selected and treat
ed, is superior for this purpose to
the wood of Norway or Switzerland.
I'm a competition OF violin manu-
facturers from all parts of the world
In which there were 23 Instruments
submitted, Mr. Coulter said that a
violin made from oregon wood was
sold to the leader of a Philadelphia
orchestra recently and this instru-
ment is introducing Oregon wood to
eastern manufacturers OF musical in
struments. There is a firm in Boston
which is purchasing large quantities
Of Oregon wood for the manufacture
of violins. Mr.. Coulter exhibited a
mandolin made OF chittim wood Sc
cured near Hillsboro.
"The only drawback to the indus
try, explained Mr.. Coulter, is the lack
OF proper machinery to manufacture
the wood into violins as a reasonable
price. The material is here in abund-
ance, and a large and profitable in
dustry can be built up by interesting
a manufacturer of musical instru-
ments who has the necessary capital
to finance such an industry"
A number of excellent violins,
mandolins. and guitars have been
manufactured from Blue mountain
pine, by Engineer J. A. Carlson, of
Kamela, who is an expert musical
instrument maker. Several instru-
ments made by him are now in Pen
dleton.
