Under a special arrangement made
with Managers Wagenhals & Kemper
Blanche Walsh will be seen here be-
fore long in Clyde Fitch's latest play
"'rhe Straight Road" coming direct
from the Astor theater, with her spec
ial company, and with the Broadway
production. Concerning the play and
Miss Walsh, the New York critics
grew enthusiastic. The New York
World said: "Rest emotional acting
Miss Walsh has ever done. and no
actress, not even Mrs. Carter, could
excel her in It," The New York Press
said: "One of the most remarkable
plays New York has seen in many
years" The New York Post said:
I'VE have said before, and we repeat,
the realism of Miss Walsh was unde-
niable." The Evening World said:
Miss Walsh makes this play live,
throhbing thing"

Commercial association, and gives a
brief sketch of his life. While the
brief sketch does not in any measure
tell the story of Mr. RAIDERS activity
and popularity in this city, which has
heen his home for a number of years,
yet It shows something of the esteem
IN which he is held by his business
associates. The Telegram says:
an. A. RAIDER, newly chosen presi-
dent of the Pendleton Commercial
association, has been one of the lead
ing business men of the city for a
number of years past. He is a for
mer resident Of Indiana, and during
his time here has been engaged in
the furniture business. He has ever
been Jealous worker in behalf of
the city and It was his record along
that line that secured him the honor
of the presidency of the Commercial
association.
During the past few years the Pen
dleton Commercial association has
been one OF the most active organiza-
tions of that kind in the state and It
has been instrumental in molding
public policy, Leon Cohen, president
Of the association during the past
year, declined a reelection"
Mr.. RAIDER Is an active member OF
the knights OF Pythias and Masonic
orders, and has been a member OF
the board of managers of Pendleton
Commercial association for the past
two years, in that time taking great
interest in the affairs of the assocla.

NO PRELIMINARY WILL BE HELD
Colonel Raley Has Been Retained in
the McManus Case.

Since the shooting of Bob Estes,
practically no new developments have
come to light and apparently but lit
tie more will now be brought out
until McManus is placed on trial in
the circuit court.
District Attorney Phelps has been
making Investigations in the case
since his return from western Oregon.
Today he stated that a preliminary
examination will not be held, but that
instead he will handle the case him.
self, as under the law he has the
powers of grand jury in such mat
ters.
Aside from Judge James A. Fee.
Colonel ]. H. Raley has also been
retained for the defense of McManus,
and when the case comes to trial a
highly interesting legal battle will un-
doubtedly occur. But It is not at all
probable that the case will be tried
at this term of court, as the defense
will probably want the case to go over
until next term so as to allow the at
torneys to prepare themselves. Both
Judge Fee and Colonel Raley have
been busily occupied during the last
week or more on the flood damage
case, in which they appear for oppo-
site sides.
The next term of circuit court will
convene here on the second Monday
in April, as a bill has already been
passed by the legislature changing
the times for the holding of the jury
sessions in this county. Hereafter
the January term will commence on
the second Monday, the spring term
On the second Monday in April, a:
stated above, and the fall term or
the third Monday in September
In Morrow county the various terms
will commence one week earlier than
in the past.

SOME SPORTING SQUIBS

At the risk of appearing brutal, we would suggest that the Giants use their bats on the Cubs instead of attempting to use them on those Chicago curves. It is a good bat that would beat Chances men. If the fan who told us last March, after returning from the South, that Jack Taylor was al, in, will drop into our office, he will re- oeive something to his advantage. The Giants got one hit out of Taylor, and that one did not come until the sixth. This is pitching, little sister, especially against the Giants.
 And those Cubs just can't make their bats behave. By all the rules of percentages of baseball there ought to be just one pitcher that they can't hlt. If you can dig him up, just address John McGraw, second place, National League, and make a fortune. The Cubs gave a rather busy exhibition of base running on hits. They frequently went around from first to third on singles and pulled off similar cham pionship stunts.
 1t is certainly exasperating to play the kind of ball the GiaAts have made good with before every other club in the league, only to drop two in a row to the near tail enders. and have them climb out Of last pace over their shoulders.

TEN DAYS ON
BREAD AND WATER

William Kelly imbibed too freely
yesterday and became drunk to which
he added the offense of fighting. His
experiences were varied and he wound
up by going to the borough bastile for
ten days, his fare meanwhile to be
bread aud water.
Kelly was arrested ON a warrant
sworn out by Chief-of- Police Mince-
moyer and was charged with drunk
ness. disorderly conduct and fighting
He was arraigned during the after
noon before Justice of the Peace DaI-
ton.
The evidence showed that the de-
fendant about O'Clock yesterday
morning was lying near Bloch 81 Benz
bach's Pants factory, presumably very
much intoxicated. Michael Rafferty,,
fellow boarder with Kelly, came
along and kindly stopped to assist
him on his way. He was in the act of
helping Kelley to arise when the lat
ter, who semed to be in pretty good
condition, turned on the man who
wanted to help him aud beat him un-
mercifully. 1t was rurnored last even
ing that Rafferty, was in bad way as
the result of his pummeling.
The justice imposed the usual fine
for drunkenness, disorderly conduct
and fighting, which with the accrued
costs amounted to fifteen dollars. The
defendant failed to produce the cash
and in default he was committed to
the borough lookup for ten days. A
bread and water diet will add to the
rigors of the long confinement in the
"bastile''.
The defendant was determined to be
game and as he entered upon his i'm
prisonment he reminded the officers
that they would find him a true
sport" and that he would serve his
time

A SPECTACULAR
COLLISION

A collision between two bicycles oc-
Cured ON Front street, Monday even
ing, which shows that care and atten-
tion is necessary on the part of cyclists
as well as automobllists, if they wish
to escape danger.
Constable W. E. Young was riding
his wheel ON Front street. while Ralph
Chapman was coming down Mill
street The latter. who was running
at a pretty high rate of speed, swung
around the corner into East Front
street just as Constable Young reached
the same spot. Whether one of the
wheelmen, or both, were inattentive
has not been explained, but there was
a dreadful collision, the sudden impact
hurling each cycler from his wheel.
Neither of the men were much in
jured, but those who witnessed the
affair and saw each of the two fly for
ward as though shot out of catapult
would not have been surprised if
both had been killed. Mr.. Chapman s
wheel lost several spokes. but beyond
this neither bicycle was much damag-
ed
