FASHION CREATES
NEW HUMAN BEING

Paris-The revolution that has
gradually been brought about in wo-
mans dress as the result of the di-
rectoih craze is phoducing some
curious consequences.
The dress designers and makers.
after having gradually brought about
what they describe as "the straight
line" in front, have now directed
their attention TO the back portion
of fashionable attire, and the de-
cree has gone forth that 1.-The straight
line" both front and back, is to pre-
vail this winter.
The result is to create an entirely
new shaped human being. already
nicknamed ia femme tube" or "the
tube woman" because of the few
women seen about so far in the very
latest style OF directoire dress re-
semble walking stove-pipes.
The new figure requires the wear
ing of corsets of extraordinary
length. resembling certain ancient
iron instruments of torture. They
are made of rubber or elastic tissue
and whalebone and reach nearly to
the knees. Many of these new cor
sets are on show at the large shops
Philadelphia North American.

WILL THE COURT
PAY THE BILL?
CONTROVERSY OVER
DETECTIVES PAY
Claim Of $3.50 Incurred by District
Attorney Prior to Last Grand Jury
Session Not Yet Paid-COmplaints
of Law Violation Roll i'm But So
Far i'm Vain-"Show Down" Coming
This Week or Next

Are the members of the county
court going to cooperate in the en-
forcement of the prohibition law or
will they, by refusal to pay for special
detective services, make it impossible
to effectively enforce the law?
This is a question that will proba-
bly, be decided at the county court
session that begins tomorrow and the
answer will have an important bearing
upon the actions of the grand jury
which will be called here next Mon
day.
Though but little has been said up
on the subject, it has become known
that up to this time the court has re-
fused to pay an account of $3.50 in
CURED by District Attorney Phelps
prior to the last session of the grand
jury. That amount was due for the
service of the detective whose work
resulted in several hundred indict-
ments and who incidentally caused
several thousands of dollars in fines to
flow into the county treasurer. The
bill was not paid because Commits
sioners walker and Lee objected to
the payment on the ground that the
sheriff's office should have done the
work. on the other hand, it is as
serted by the district attorney that
while the sheriff and his deputies
could do much if they would, toward
enforcing the law, 1t is necessary to
employ special men in order to effec-
lively land the guilty ones.
Though his bill was not paid by
the court at the time it was first pre-
sented, it will be submitted again at
the coming session. This time Mr..
Phelps is in hopes it will be paid
and that the court will cooperate in
the enforcement of the law.
1t is known that during the past
few weeks numerous complaints have
been made to the district attorneys
office because the prohibition law is
not being enforced. Up to this time
Mr.. Phelps has apparently "lain low"
waiting to see whether or not the
county will stand for the expense of
further detective service.
So. from appearances, the "show
down" will occur at the coming ses-
sion of the county court or at some
time during the session of the grand
jury which is-to-be.

MEAD HAS
PLAN TO KEEP OFFICE

Olympia, Wash, jan Sin the
event Cosgrove changes his mind al
the eleventh hour concerning his trip
to Olympia to take the oath of offive,
Governor Mead has a plan, it is re-
ported, to carry the controversy to
the Legislature to determine who shall
be governor.
The plan as proposed is to urge the
legislature to authorize the suspen-
sion of the executive business in the
governors office. such as signing
land deeds the issuance of netarial
commissions and other duties where
the property rights of many individ-
,ual might be involved and that the
attorney general be instructed to
start quo warranto proceedings in the
supreme court to determine who Is
the legal acting governor,
If this plan is carried out there
will be no formal demand upon Mead
for the office by the lieutenant-gover-
nor and the record will contain moth
ing that in future years might be cited
as showing that the two men engaged
in an unseemly row over the executive
chair.

JIM JEFF'RIES MAY
FIGHT CHAMPION "COON,

Los Angeles, Jan. 5.-The proba.
bility of fight between Jeffries and
johnson is strongest today through
the announcement that the Vernon
Arena club OF which Jeffries is the
principal owner IS for sale. 1t is be-
lieved that the offer of $4,000 to fight
the colored man is being seriously
considered by Jeffries.
1t is reported that James Coffroth
the San Francisco fight promoter
will probably buy the club.
Jeffries has repeatedly announced
that he will never re-enter the ring
until he was offered $4,000 by Pro-
moter McCarey to fight Johnson. Now
Jeffries is not talking but thinking
and wondering if he could get into
condition again.

out as well as froze the water pipes.
The thermometer registered eight de-
! grees above zero, which is seven de-
grees colder than at any previous
time during the winter.
Some anxiety was felt in regard to
the wheat, but this is relieved for the
present, as the snow will protect the
wheat from the cold.
Reports from other parts of the
county and state indicate that the
storm is one of the most general ever
experienced in the northwest. The
snowfall is much heavier at Pilot
Rock, Athena and other parts of Una
tilla county than at Pendleton. thus
insuring a bountiful protecting blan-
ket for the wheat

Pendleton awoke this morning and
found the mercury in the thermome-
ters getting so near the zero mark
and near blizzard" blowing. they
at once begin to see pictures of finin-
cial ruin staring them in the face,
for there was not a particle of snow
to protect from the killing frost. BY
10 o'clock, however, a few flakes Of
the beautiful white" were seen in the
air and by noon the farmer was once
more wearing the smile of prosperity.

ONE DEAD. ANOTHER ILL.
Younger Brother of Boy Who Died
Yesterday MAY Not Live,

Little Peter Hartle, aged II. is
dead and younger child of Mr.. and
Mrs. G. B. Hartle, is at the point of
death at the home of the parents as
the result of typhoid-pneumonia. Fu-
neral services for the child will be
held this afternoon at o'clock at
the Methodist church.
The death was exceedingly pathetic,
as the child ad been convalescing
nicely from his attack of typhoid
pneumonia until yesterday when all
fever had left him. Immediately there
followed collapse of the little system
and life fled. The other child is in
similar condition and there is but lit
tie hope of recovery.

To provide a plan whereby farmers
OF eastern oregon may cooperate in
securing artesian water Is the pur-
pose OF a bill which is now being
drafted for introduction by Senator
c. j. Smith.
Though the full details of the plan
have not yet been worked out Sena-
tor Smiths idea Is to provide for the
creation OF artesian districts upon
much the same terms that certain
special road districts are now Gre
ated.
Under the terms of the bill the
farmers of any community may com
bine in a petition for the creation of
n district. In doing so they pray that
their property be assessed a specified
amount for the purpose Of sinking an
experimental well. When the next
annual tax levy is made by the county
the county court levies this special
tax upon the property in the district.
When the necessary money has
been raised In this manner the well
Is then dug by contract at a location
offering the greatest inducements.
Would Aid Development.
That such a law as he has in mind
will be very useful In the work OF de-
veloping the semi-arld portions of
eastern oregon is believed by Senator
Smith. At this time It is practically
impossible for anyone to secure an
artesion well becasue of the great
cost and the uncertainay involved.
The matter of sinking such well Is
too large an undertaking for an indi-
vldual farmer and Senator Smiths
bill will provide an effective way for
cooperation in the matter.
That artesan water may be Sc
cured at n depth of 1000 or 5000 feet
Is believed by Senator Smith. The
fact that artesian water Is reached
at depth of 1900 feet at North |
Yakima and that the hot springs at
Hot Lake and Boise are a half mile /
higher in altitude than Pendleton /
lend color to the hope Of securing !
arteslan water In this county.
As Senator Smiths bill will carry |
no appropriation and will have no |
compulsory features he does not an
ticlpate any difficulty in securing its
passage.
