FOOTBALL TRIP MAY Be.
PREVENTED
SCHOOL BOARD is SAID TO BE
OPPOSED TO WEEKS
JOURNEY

The Astoria High School football
team has planned to 90 10 Portland
next Monday to play the eleven Of
the Portland Academy on that day,
and from there the team Is scheduled
to 60 to Eugene to play the Eugene
High on the Saturday following
That means that the Astoria boys
would be away all Of next week. ac-
cording to the present plans The
boys expect to stop off at Salem on
the way to Eugene and stay there
for a day Or 50, though nothing but
practice games would be played
there,
But there may be some hitch III
this program, Last night il was re-
ported among the football boys that
at a meeting Of the school board yes
terday afternoon the question Of this
trip arose and it is said one or more
Of the members did not entirely IA
vor it. Permission had been asked
for leave to 60, from the principal o.
the school, Mr.. Incl, and he had
made no objections, and 4 like per
mission was expected from the
school board. 1t is said the board
was quite willing that the team should
make either the trip to Portland or
to Eugene, taking day for
each, but that permission would not
be granted them to leave for the en-
tire week.
This break in on the plans Of the
football team is in rather a decided
way, and the decision comes as a
great disappointment to the members
of the team. In many ways it may
seem unfortunate that the board
deemed it best to refuse its permis-
sion, as this will be probably the
only chance the Astoria team will
have tendency to throw little
cold water on the athletic activities
in the High School.
Principal Incl and others have
endeavored to create an athletic
spirit in the student body, believing
it to be highly important factor II
school affairs, and the boys Of the
football eleven have been taking
hold in great shape. If the board
has taken any stand on the question
of the trip, as stated, perhaps il has
been without hearing the boys side
Of the matter-at least the football
,oys are hoping that everything will
turn out right.
Lawrence Rogers is the manages
Of the Astoria High. While the team
does not average very big in weight
perhaps about 100 pounds lit is
said to be promising eleven. But
there isn't any doubt they are going
against strong eleven in the Port
land Academy crowd, and the Eu'
gene players are also said to be husky
and skilled. Most of the high school
teams off in the interior Of the state
carry greater weight, too. The socks
and jerseys for the Astoria eleven
have just arrived. Purple and gold
are the local colors, and the team
puts up natty appearance. Fifteen
men were expecting to so on the
weeks trip. The lineup will be Al
follows, if the games are played:
Parker, full back; E. Short, left
half Upshur, right half; Rogers
quarter back; Ross, center; Peschl
left guard; Jeldness, right guard
Troyer, left tackle; Fulton or Barry
right tackle; Norton, left end; 5
Short Holmes, right end. Kenneth
Parker is the captain.

An aged farmer from down on
on the Greenhorn visiting a circus
for the first time, stood before
the dromedary's cage, eyes pop
ping and mouth agape at the
strange beast within. The circus
proper began and the crowds left
for the main show, but still the
old man stood before the cage in
stunned silence, appraising every
detail of the misshaped legs, the
cloven hoofs. the pendulous
upper lip and the curiously
mounded back of the sleepy eyed
beast. Fifteen minutes passed.
Then the granger turned away
and spat disgustedly. Hell,

the stepfather appeared almost ini- mediately after it's arrival. Not withstanding the fact that Barham was member of the Woodmen lodge at Cornersyille and several Woodmen requested ti,at Aa be giv- en decent burial, Sheriff Moore and the stopfather insisted on talk ing the body to Cornersvllle as soon as possible and to carry out their desire, they would not permit the undertaken to undress the dead man or remove any of the blood soaked garments. They purchased cheap coffin, placed the body in it and then carried it away in a wagon.
 Coroner McGaughy did not hold an inquest because he did not con- sider it necessary in view of the fact that it was generally believed that the man had ended his own life. Sheriff Moore said he had and he was. as far as is known, the on- ly eye witness. At all events. Bar hams body was not properly pre- pared for interment.
 A Graphic representative learned. |. upon investigation, that Barham was muchly under the influence of liquor at the time that he ended his life. He is said to have been in the city about ten days. during which time he drank almost con- stantly. He talked to several ac- quaintances a few minutes before he ended his life, telling them when he left that he would go and "try to walk it off," meaning his intox- icated condition. A few minutes later he fired the fatal shot. The pistol which he used was picked up

 The litigation arose out of I um Der contract entered into ;a 1901 between the Houston Oil Company and the Kirby Lumber Company. in which the former sold and n" lat ter bought eight billion feet of y4l. low pine timber in Texas and Louis. jana. The consideration at.. $3o.- 250. 900, to be paid in fcrty se,ni- annual installments rangirc from $625,OOO to $I,35O,0O0

The lumh"~ compauy therefore refused to make fucthe, payments unless the senli-anHual installments were reduced in .ro- portion to the amount o: timber furnished by the oil compaar.

 On January 6, all the parties con. cerned met in New York to take testimony In this case. Negotta- tions for a compromise settlement were taken up and it is now an nounced that the negotiations have culm'nated in definite agreement, which settles all the points of diff. terence. The contention of the Kirby Lumber Company is racog- nized and the lumber is aW"rded to that company on payment semi annually of five-eishths of the amount specified in the original stumpage contract.
