MOTHER EARTH MAY
CHANGE HER SHAPE

Rome.-M. Barnum, the noted as
tronomer, today predicted violent seis-
mic disturbances for this week and
expressed his belief that the spot on
the sun, the largest seen, was respon-
s.ble for the electrical phenomena
which Interrupted telegraphic COM
munication last Saturday and Sunday.
Barnun said he expects more violent
manifestations.
Barnum's statement follows that of
Frank A. Perrott, assistant director
of the Royal observatory on Mount
Vesuvius, who says that the positions
Of the sun, moon, Mars, Saturn and
Jupiter are such that they may pro-
duce a terrible strain on the earth and
may change its shape from spherical
TO eliptical. Perrott predicted the
great quake that destroyed Messina
and as a result of these predictions
the people of southern Italy are badly
frightened, fearing a repetition of the
Calabrian disaster.

Pilot Rock Was First.
While the Pilot Rock booth may
not carry off the grand prize it was
first in one particular, that of being
completed and ready for inspection.
1t was the only booth that was really
ready for the opening and it is a cred

resents, but to those who had its ar
rangement in charge. These were
Sam Forshaw, the local florist, John
p. McManus, who is determined to
make of the Pilot Rock country a
second Hood River, and James Johns,
who is first lieutenant to McManus
in his laudable ambition.
The time is passed when the people
of Oregon express surprise at the
81 ;,o
tion of Umatilla county is capable of
making and consequently there is not
so much wonder expressed when the
fair visitor stops before the beautiful
arrangement of fruit, vegetables, grain
and grasses. McManus has named
his town "The Apple Burg" and the
apple exhibit is therefore the leading
feature of the display.
Stanficld's Fine Showing,
The Stanfield booth, seen on the
vilion is one of the most interesting
of the show. This is because of the
widespread interest in the new town
and in the Furnish-Coe irrigation pro-
ject owing to the fact that irrigated
farming has but commenced on the
project it was impossible to secure a
very extensive display of fruits and
vegetables from the project itself. But
the products on exhibit testify very
forcibly to the possibilities of that
section. They were gathered from
nearby farms and for the most part
represent fruit that was virtually al
lowed to grow wild. Yet they make
n showing that would be very credit
able to an up to date irrigation sec
tion and show something Of what may
be accomplished at Stanfield under
irrigation.

Staufield, upon the Furnish project

a stir of indignation whenever it in

The chief reason which will prevent
legislation which would extend that

fact that we have no representative in

carry appropriations must originate in

THE VETO

AS announced would be the case in
The Star of last Saturday, the House
this morning sustained the veto of
the Governor of the enabling act for
the pay of County employees as fatally
amended by the Senate.
Kaleiopu, the introducer' of the ORR
gi1al and harmless bill in the House,
today introduced a new bill along the
lines of the original, which provides
that those men who actually worked
fer the City and County during the
period of squabble between the Mayor
and the Supervisors shall be paid for
their servicts.
The Senate amendment to the orig
illal House bill was to the effect that
10th those who worked and those who
had been promised remuneration be
paid, thus including appointees of the
Mayor and Supervisor. 1t was the
Senate amendment that brought the
veto.
Kaniho moved to override the veto
of the Governor and Douthitt moved
to sustain.
Kaniho was long-windeG, thinking
that a man who had been led to sup
pose that he would be paid, should be
paid.
Rice pointed out how the Senate
amendment had caused the veto.
There was much argument and Ka.
niho's move to override was put to
vote, those voting against Kaniho's
motion sustaining the veto, as follows:
To override: Furtado, Hihio, Kama
hu, Kaniho, Kealawaa, Like, Nawa-
I hine-7.
To sustain veto: Alfonso, Castro

but even then the stranded vessel
was solidly embedded in the rock
and seemed to sag back into her old
groove as soon as there was any
slackening of the force pulling upon
her.
Her bow is fully three to five feet
higher out of the water than its nat
ural position, and the reef contact
extends sternward for a distance of
about fifty feet. Several feet at the
bow is sunk in the coral floor, the
vessel ploughing her way into it
when she went on.
When the British cruiser went out
this morning at o'clock she first
anchored herself over in the direc'
tion of the marine railway and threw
one five7inch wire hawser around
the Logan's stern bit. At the same
time the Iroquois took up a position
along the port side and fastened to
the bow capstan. The Intrepid took
a similar position and did likewise
on the other side.

he would like to see Mr.. Breckons re-

requested Senator Warren to recont-
