+ - - +
Awful crimes have been COM
mitted. The story of murder may
never be told fully. Men, women
and children were killed or burned
in a house of horrors. The nature
of the disclosures thus far made and
the whole atmosphere of the place
ought to make all shun it except the
few Representatives of the law called
there by official duty.
Instead the blood stained farm has
become a favorite excursion point
for the time being. Men and women,
boys and girls, have made up picnic
parties to visit the ruins of the
charnel house. Livery stables have
done a land office business. Sand
wiches and redhots have vanished
quickly in the presence of the hords
of hungry excursionis.s. The unfor-
tunate Indiana town has become the
scene of jesting crowds of gaping
sensation hunters.
When the thought is considered
that idle curiosity has played such
a part in the whole matter there is
reason for encouragement for So
called civilization. Few have re-
Elected upon the probable awful fate
of the supposed murderess. The
death of possible victims of her
fiendish activity has not saddened
many. The only voice heard with
any distinctness coming out of the
shadow of the crime is that of the
picknicking excursionists finding oc-
casion for laughter and joking even
by the graves of the dead-Chicago

+++f - I. I
A series of tests under the direc-
tion of the forest service engineer
and several assistants will be begun
in about two months and thorough
study made of the utilization of the
native timbers of Colorado.
There are at present in Colorado
large amounts of dead timber, most
ly fire killed, which, in some places,
is considered unfit for use as struc-
tural material, and in others is used
only to a limited extent. 1t is the
intention to make a series of tests
on this dead timber and also on tim
ber of the same kind cut when still
alive.
The results of the t5sts will give
accurate data to Colorado lumber OF
the comparative strength of green
and dead timber. They will also es-
tablish just what strength the var
ious Colorado timbers have that
builders and engineers may know
what they can count on in using
these timbers for structural purposes.
1t is expected that the laboratory
will be equipped before the end of
the summer and THAT tine teating
work will begin in early fall. In
addition to the testing work carried
on at the laboratory Investigations
of the wood-uslng industries in Colo
RADIO and neighboring states will be
made. This study will enable the
forest service representatives to get
into close touch with lumbe:men and
other wood users, and the officials
of the university hope that the plan
will work out to the mutual advant-
age of all.

The Greater Norris and Rowe circus
arrived in this city at an early hour
this morning on two special trains
from The Dalles. where they exhibit
ed yesterday afternoon.

commenced Immediately and long be-
fore many of the good housewives of
this city had prepared porridge for
, their lords and masters the army
Of over $50 circus attaches sat down
TO hot breakfast at the Hotel Norris
and Rowe, at the baseball park.
The country beau and his sweet
heart, the noble red man, little John
ME and his "weeny" sister, dressed in
their best bibs and fuckers, were on
the streets early. waiting for the pa
rade, and all wearing anxious express
sions. Repressed excitement was in
the air, superinduced by the gladsome
circus-the event of events in all
their simple unaffected lives.
The peanut venders and the fellow
with the toy balloons were also in evil
dence and assumed an air of indiffer-
ence such as prosperity can only pro-
duce.
The foghorn tones of the fellow with
the leather lungs was heard to ex-
claim, Hold your hosses," the ele-
plants are Gaming" and then, oh,
then, such a craning of necks. The
Goodyear Rubber company should
have had representatives here today
rubber is scarce.
The parade past, the vast throng
scurried to the exhibition grounds
where the outside free attractions were
given. The fat lady, the tattooed
Greek, Texas Jack, who throws knives

Sea Island Joe and his wife, Beno the
bearded lady, the hundred and one la
dies and gentlemen that nature took
with are all with Norris and
Rowe this year The pink lemonade,
the sawdust, the tents, the peanuts and
the babble of tongues of representa-
tives of every nation are all with the
big show. The excitement, oh, the
JOY of it all. No wonder that the cir
cur goes on like the brook, forever
The doors to the big show were op-
ened at o'clock and the perform
ance was started at 2;15. A large au-
dience was present when the ring
master blew his whistle, which sum-
mons the performers into the ring.
The grand entree in which all of the
performers of the show take parts is
a very pleasing spectacle. The trap
pings and the coloring of the rich cos
tunes made a most pleasing effect.
From this time on during the two and
a half hours OF the show dozens of
great acts were introduced, as many
as six acts taking place at the same
time.

BEETS ARE ALL SEEDED.
Sugar Company Completes Planting
23OO Acres of Seed.

The seeding Of approximately 23OC
acres of beets, and 2200 acres of small
grain by the Amalgamated Sugar
company is finished, and for a time al
least, thinning of beets will be the
principal work of the large crews
which the company maintains, says
the La Grande Observer.
The Union ranches were the last to
be completed, but they are now seed
ed and the next big event will be the
harvest. Six hundred acres of hay
will be cared for in the meantime.
Village of Tents.
Around the headquarters of the
Union ranches are many little villages
of tents and temporary quarters, occu-
pied by the Germans who have been
imported to the Grand Ronde valley
to eventually displace oriental labor.
The Japanese now employed by the
company are confined to the La
Grande district of the company's hold
ings. In time, more permanent quar-
tors will be provided for the Germans,
At present, however they live in tents
and temporary houses, and are con-
tented with what is supplied them.
Their work is highly satisfactory.
For the past several days, Manager
Sebbelov has had crew thinning the
beets which were seeded early and are
now far enough advanced in their
growth to need attention by thinners.
