MONDAY BIG DAY
FOR LOCAL WOODMEN

Monday promises to be a big day
for the Pendleton camp of the Wood
men of the World. That evening will
mark the Inauguration of the fall
membership campaign and the fea-
ture of the opening will be the pres
ence of and the address by Head Con-
sui l. L. Boak of Denver.
The head consul is scheduled to ar
rive from Portland on the O'Clock
train and every woodman of the
world who is in the city at that time,
whether a member of the local camp
or not, is expected to be at the depot
to welcome the distinguished man.
Though ne will be the leading fea-
ture of the evening he will not be the
whole show" by any means. The To-
cal choppers have made great prep
arations for the event and not the
least of the enjoyable features will be
the "eatings."
The local camp considers itself ex-
tremely fortunate in securing the
services of the head consul to start
the campaign and the members feel
that this is an auspicious sign of the
success they are to meet with in their
TO increase the membership.

Porfirio Diaz of Mexico, met and ex-
changed expressions of good will to-
day while the bands and cannon of
the two great republics Joined in the
echoes over the Rio Grande. The
American and Mexican sections were

We're drinking each others health in
meecal Or whiskey and feuds were
forgotten today at least Taft was
surrounded by a resplendant military
staff and civil officials.
Diaz in carriage at the Mexican
end of the international bridge, was
met by United States infantry. artil-
lery and cavalry and escorted to the
middle, where Taft was waiting. Sol
diers surrounded the presidents dur
ing the conference. Taft grasped the
hand of Diaz warmly and told him

name of the people of the United

San Bernardino, Oct. 16.-Billy
Boy. the Piute murderer is dead. With
his only remaining cartridge he sent
bullet through his heart and died
in the granite fortress where he made
desperate stand against the sheriffs'
posses last week. The Indians body
was cremated on hastily construct
ed funeral pyre by the officers who
ran him to death on the Colorado des-
ert. the sandy home of his Indian
forefathers.
Early yesterday the combined pos
sees under Sheriff Ralphs arrived
within striking distance of the mur-
der's lair A line of scouts was
thrown out and the fortress encircled.
After several shots were unanswered,
a daring Indian trailer crept forward
to within two hundred yards, and re-
turned and made the Piute death
sign. The posse moved forward and
saw Billy Boys foot exposed. A shot
was fired at it but it did not move.
Then the fort was entered. Billy had
removed his shoe, placed the muzzle
of his rifle against his heart and
fired. Apparently he had been dead
a week. Brush and dried cactus was
heaped over his body and it was Gre
mated.

MIKE RYAN AGAIN INDICTED
FOR FIRST DECREE MURDER

ceive notification to be present. He
arrived Thursday evening and the in
vestigation was resumed yesterday
morning. 1t is said that the taking
of testimony was concluded during
the forenoon and that the entire af-
ternoon was spent in deliberation, on
this and other matters.
According to present plans the work
of the jury for the immediate re-
sumption of the trial of this case will
be undertaken next week. From the
length of time consumed last week in
vain endeavor to secure a jury when
the case was first called 1t is believed
that the greater part of the week will
be found necessary to secure the IL
men necessary for the trial of the ac-
cused man.
Ryan was arraigned last evening
and at the request of his attorneys he
was given until Monday morning to
plead.

Again has the slayer of Edward
Dixon been indicted for murder in
the first degree. After two whole
days of investigation and delibera-
ton the second grand jury to take up
the case brought In the true bill last
evening and Mike Ryan must face a
first degree murder charge despite
the slight error in the first indict-
ment which made It necessary for
the second to be returned. The attor-
neys for the defense will probably at
tack this second indictment, but 1t is
not believed possible that they will
succeed in getting their client off
without trial.
The investigation of the case was
commenced by the new grand Jury
Thursday morning and 1t is possible
that the indictment might have been
returned that day but for the fact
that Jacob Schubert, the principal
witness for the state had failed to re-

are injured and one is dying as the
result of a thrilling ride in a Bodie

This data when secured will be
compiled and placed on file in the
office of the commission at Salem.
where it will be accessible to the gem
eral public. Later it will be put in
pamphlet form and everyone inter-
ested may be able to secure a copy.
This data will not only enable the
commission to arrive at definite con-
olusions relative to reasonable rates
to be charged for freight hauling. but
1t will also be possible for any one in
terested to compute from these rec
ords the probable cost Of a railroad
in any part Of the state.
BY reason of his former connection
with the railroad Newell is admir-
ably qualified to secure this data.

come up for discussion this evening.

ing sporting questions of the day are
"Will Detroit or Pittsburg cop the
championship this afternoon" and
"Will Middleweight Champion Stanley
Ketchel be able to wrest the heavy
weight laurels from Jack Johnson this
afternoon at San Francisco" Both
fighters are fit for twenty round go
beginning at three this afternoon at

disposed of and it is anticipated the
great bleachers will also be filled.
Ketchel will enter weighing $50,
Johnson 1876.

not hailed as the heavy weight cham

man. OF course Johnson has the ad>
vantage in weight and reach but 1

either fist. If I can get an opening
and land one good punch, it will be all
over with Mr.. Dingo." johnson also
is confident and said: mo doubt
Ketchel is dangerous. I have trained
faithfully and am ready for him.
Ketchel may stay twelve but he cer-
ttainly will not stay fifteen rounds"

Detroit, Oct 16, 10 a. m.-Never
in the history of baseball has there
been such a rush TO secure seats for
the contest as this afternoon, which
decides whether the Tigers will iurr
or the Pirates raise the skull and
crossbones triumphantly. This city
is simply baseball crazy. Detroit.
three times the pennant winner, has
a better chance TO take the champion
ship than ever before in its history.
In previous series their opponents
have simply mopped the Tigers. Dur
ing this series Detroit has fought
every inch. For the first time since
the series began Detroit goes in a ten
to eight favorite. Either MuIlin or
Donovan will twirl, opposed to Ad-
ans or Maddox for the Pirates. First
Baseman Jones, though trfle lame
will probably play. The heavy field
favors the Pirates. A large delega-
ton Of Pittsburgers is present.
Abstcin Is Fired.
Ralph Davis, sporting editor of the
Pittsburg Press wired his paper as
follows: big Bill Abstein. the Pi-
rate first baseman, has played his
last game in a Pittsburg uniform"
This startling announcement was
made today by n member of the
Pittsburg club. Neither will Abstein |
take part in the deciding game this |
afternoon Hamilton Hyatt the Pl-
rate outfielder, will cover the first |
sack. The reason assigned is that
Abstein disobeyed Clarke's order to
stay on third in a recent game Alb
stein tried to score and was put out.
There was none out and a long fly
would have allowed Abstein to tie
the score.
