I1IPRUDENT ACT
An Old So1dior Attempted The Life
OLA Citizen Over Imaginary
Personal Grievance.

The unfortunate conditions that
brought about the shooting at Gray
last week is to be deplored bv q gen.
erous public.
Mr.. McWilliams expressed the
thought, that should a prospective.
change in his family occur, it would
cause him to struggle in his old
years, with an unfriendly world for
an existence. To such an extent did
this prey on his mind that while say
ing the penitentiary was acceptable
to him as certain state Institution,
he fred three shots, two went wild
while the other reached the flesh Of
his intended victim. The shot being
only % short, cause little more than
"sting" and doing no material
harm.
The law however has to be appeas-
ed so Mr.. McWilliams was taken to
Clarinds hospital until his mind be-
comes adjusted to the right and
wrong Of things. The poor old SOL
dier, gradually weakening with the
onset of time, will languish because
Nof an imprudent act.

FRUIT CROP LARGE
AND QUALITY GOOD
Frosts But This Will Not Make
Crop Light-Some Thinning
Necessary.

While some slight damage was done
in many of the Walla Walla valley
orchards by springs frosts, the concen-
sus of opinion among fruit growers Is
that the 1909 crop will average up
very we'll with the standard yields for
the valley, and owing to the work
the quality will be above the average
Fruit of all kinds is ripening rapidly
with the favorable weather, and with
in a short time the market will be
well supplied with practically all of
the summer fruits
Acc ording to ]. L. Dumas, who owns
a large apple orchard near Dayton,
says that the early spring
frosts thinned out considerable of the
fruit in this valley, though not enough
damage was done to curtail the output
in any noticeable degree. Few of the
orchardists will be called upon this
year to thin their trees as has been
found necessary in seasons past,
though in certain localities, the prac-
tice will have to be continued more to
prevent contact than to relieve over
laden trees.
Fruit conditions are dirrerenr in nearly
every orchard, but it is generally ad-
mitted that the prune and apple crops
will be light. Most of the cherries on
the market at present are of the
cheaper varieties, but by next week
the Walla Walla public can procure
all the luscious Royal AIMS it de-
ing finely, some Of the half ripe fruit
on the trees in the vicinity Of the
cemetery measuring over an inch
through. Care should be taken by
exhibit to secure some of this fruit
for exhibition as it is doubtful if any
samples equalling this cherry will be
found in any booth.
hdSpUeITIcS VI ali varieties dI0 rap
IDLY ripening, but as yet the quantities
Of ripe berries in local gardens are
rot large enough for market purposes.
Uptodate farmers are now planting
many logan berries. Up to a couple Oh
years ago this variety of small fruit
was conspicuous by it's absence In the
valley and it was thought that they
would not do we'll in this country. Ex-
periments by few men who be-
lieved that Walla Walla land wouIo
grow anything to be found in the tenn
perate zone, proved that the berries
would make good here and the logan
berry bids fair to be standby of the
small farmer in the near future.

INTERNATIONAL SYSTEM TO
WARN NATIONS OF THE APP
PROACH OF A STORM.
Vessels Of All Countries Would Profit
by Move-WireIess Would Be
Used in Transmission.

LONDON, June 21.-An international
weather bureau, which will use the
wireless telegraph to flash around the
world warnings of approaching storms
and disturbances of the elements, is
sprojected by the distinguished wealth
er men of all countries gathered in
London today at the initial session of
the International Conference of Me-
terologists.
According to the plans for this
worldwide weather forecasting move
ment, all vessels of all nations will
be equipped with uniform storm sig
mails. 1t is believed that this would
go far toward preventing disasters
at sea.
The United States is represented at
the conference opened today by Pro-
fessor Willis L. Moore. chief of the
United States Weather Bureau. 1t is
stated that America will take promi-
nent part in the projeced international
bureau
! concerted movement will be in
augurated to induce the principal gov
ernments to adopt a uniform system
of wireless telegraphy marine wealth
er reports, and to reach an agree
ment SO that ali nations shall dis
play a uniform marine storm signal
If such an international agreement can
be effected, it is believed that it will
be great factor in saving life ard
property on sea and land, and at the
same time be highly important in the
making OF weather predictions.
These subjects Will be dealt with
by two committees, one on maritime
weather signals and the other on
weather marine telegraphy. The first
committee is composed of DR.. w N

ogIcal office; Professor A. Augat, di-

PARK CLUB IS AFTER
CLEAN STREETS NOW
Committees Appointed to Canvass
District to Secure Garbage Cans
at Every Street intersection.

For the purpose of canvassing the
business district in the endeavor to
secure subscriptions with which to
purchase garbage cans as a necessary
adjunct to the campaign for cleaner
streets, committees from the Womans'
Park club have been appointed and
will take UP the work assigned them
tomorrow morning. The move is one
of the details being worked out for
Washing the Baby's Face" (which the
Park club recently took up in con-
junction with the publicity department
of the Commercial club.
A garbage can on every block in the
business district is the desire of the
Park club members, who have taken
steps whereby the ordinance prohib-
itfng the throwing of waste paper on
the streets may be enforced. The COM
mittee will start out early Tuesday
morning, and expect to accomplish the
work in a few hours. The plan Is to
distribute 100 dark green cans Ia

lone of the principal problems OF
be taken up by the conference" said
Professor Moore, ''is the question of
international agreement as to the TAX
ing of wireless marine weather re-
ports. The scheme is to secure the
adoption by all of the leading nations
of a uniform method of taking and
| transmitting wireless meteorological
| observations so that each observa-
ton, no matter by what nation taken
will be comparable with the observa-
tions taken by any other nation There
is now no uniform system of receiv-
ing and transmitting marine wireless
weather reports and exactly the same
things are not observed
continued Professor Moore, ito in
duce the several governments ulti-
compel ship beyond a certain ton
mage to carry wireless instruments
and operators and to take at noon,
Greenwich time, a daily observation of
the weather. Observations received by
a ship would be transmitted to other
ships, SO that by relaying from the en-
tire ocean would then within a few
minutes reach the land and the central
meteorological offices in the United
States.
France, England and Germany and
other interested nations would be able
to complete these observations each
in its proper geographical position. and
thus to determine the location Of
storms and forecast their future di-
rection. Such forecasts could be dis
tributed to the vessels in the same
manner in which the DESTINATIONS on
which the forecasts were based were
collected

tee having this matter in charge, to
