DEATH TOLL OF GRAND CANYON
Venturesome Ones Swept Away by
 River or Starve on Precipices.

Every year the river and the Grand Canyon of the Colorado take | their toll in human life" recently said | Frederick s. Dellenbaugh. the artist ! scholar. who has painted pictures and written books about that wonderful
 river that rushes for hundreds of
 miles through gorges hundreds of feet deep.
 When I was with Major Powell on his exploring expedition through the 1 Grand Canyon, forty years ago, We i lost several men, and the few other expeditions that have followed ours sine then all have had to pay the
 river the price in the same way" he
 continued. "PowelI's party was the | first journey white men ever made | down through that perilous portion of the Colorado rIvc-. and almost every : day of the many months it took us
 was full of danger. Every year some | lives are lost there. Two years ago
 a skeleton of a man was discovered ' in Marble canyon. lying on a rocky shelf a little above the whirling
 waters of the river. A newspaper dated 1n 1900 was in the pocket of
 his coat, so that it was likely that the
 man perished eight years ago at least. Whether he was killed while trying to
 to scale the insurmountable walls or
 whether he died of starvation no one knows
 That part of the Colorado river never gives up its dead. Those who ! fall into the waters clutches literally are dashed to pieces and no trace of them ever is found
 The Whirlpool Rapids of the Nj aga river below the falls are terrible tO contemplate. but it can be said
 without exaggeration that the Niagara
 rapids are peaceful waters compared
 to some of the long stretches of foam in the Colorado. The whirlpools of the Colorado are of the true type the water swirls round and round and
 there is broad, hollow, funnel shaped hole in the center of them through which one might peer down a

WASHINGTON MAN PUTS
HIMSELF OUT OF OFFICE

Quincy, Wash.-Can a legislature
put a man out of office without i'm
peachment proceedings, as provided
by law? F. T. Campbell, representa-
tive from Douglas county, is fully con-
Vlnced that the legislature of WASH
ington can and has done so, for he is
now facing an election at which the
voters Of his district will say whether
or not he shall sit in the extraordi-
nary session which convenes next
week
Mr.. Campbell sat in the last regular
session, and the one task assigned him
was the division of Douglas COUNTY
In securing the passage of the law
creating Grant county ont of the
southeastern part of Douglas, he an
parently legislated himself out of Of
ice. When the special session was
called somebody questioned the right
OF Mr.. Campbell to sit in his old place
and the question was referred to the
attorney general This official dis
covered that the county division law
hdd made no provision for the requis-
lie legislative representation. and
that Mr.. Campbell had been let out
OF his office by the very law which
he had been elected to labor for.
On this showing, Governor Hay
called a special election to allow the
voters to determine who should serve
them in the extraordinary session.
Mr.. Campbell was an active support
er of local option in the regular ses-
sion, and the liberal element in his
district is not anxious for his return
to office.

Kittens Mothered BY Hen

North Yakima, Wash.-W. ]. Rem
frow, of Naches Gap, has a black cat
which has since kittenhood shown the
greatest fondness for his chickens.
This fondness has nothing to do with
appetite. The cat has chummed with
the chickens, taking its maps in the
chicken-house and sleeping there OH
cold nights. A little while ago the
cat became the head of a large fami-
ly of kittens, born in the poultry
house. 1t was not long before she
discovered that bringing up children
was a bore. The other day when a
hen who was setting had left her nest
for food, the cat carefully deposited
the kittens on the eggs and left for
parts unknown. The hen is obligingly
supplying warmth for the litter, and
the Renfrow family are bringing the
kittens up by hand.

Up until the last half of the ninth
inning, the Pilot Rock team evidently
had things all their own way as the
score was II to 4, at that stage of the
game In that canton, however, the
boys of the former sagebrush region
decided to show what they could do.
Two home runs and seven other scores

LONE MAN PUTS THREE
BANDITS TO FLIGHT

Spokane. ne.--Resisting an attack on
him by three thugs on the East Olive
street bridge last night, Henry A.
Stinebaugh, I'll Helena street a
helper in the Northern Pacific round
house, put his assailants to flight
after a fight, in which he received
several cuts on the head and a black
eye.
According to the account of the af-
fair given by Stinebaugh at his home
to Officer Hampton, who was de-
tailed on the case, the intended vic
tim Of the holdup men was leaning
over the bridge rail interested in
watching the water when he heard a
voice at his back commanding him to
throw up his hands.
At the same time he was struck
over the head. He turned and, see
ing three men with revolvers gath
cred around him, he seized one Of
them and kicked another, who was
knocked down by the force with
which his foot struck the bandit on
the leg The third one Of the trio.
he said, got behind and struck him
two or three blows on the head with
his gun, knocking him down.
The bandits then fled from the
bridge and went north on Columbia
avenue. Stinebaugh reported his ex-
perience to the bridge watchman,
who telephoned to police headquar-
ters.
Stonebaugh was unable to give a
description of the bandits other than
that they were of about medium
meight and appeared to be young
men,

Orpheum Bill Is Pleasing.

There was big attendance at the
Orpheum theater last evening, when
two new acts were introduced to an
appreciatlve audience. The bill is
equal to the best heretofore shown at
the popular playhouse. Dick Tracy,
the monologue man, is very clever
artist and is able to show before any
audience in the land. Miss Maybelle
Milton. the character change artist,
is very clever in her line. The pic
tureacalled "School of Love Making"
is one all Pendleton youths should
see. The picture called Birth of
Big Gun" is very interesting to young
and old. All of these make an hour
and ten minutes Of fun.
