They are easily domesticated and

BOY PRODIGY WILL
SAIL UP TO VENUS
IN TWENTY MINUTES

Boston, Mass, March 80
william Sidis, the 11-year- old
mathematical prodigy at Har-
ward. has not been combining his
attentions alone to the problems
on the fourth dimension and 9TH
er equally simple matters, but
has been delving into the mystic
ries of aerial navigation. From
one Of the instructors 1t Is
learned that Sidis believes he
has solved the problem of navi.
eating the air.
His plan has to do with the
alpha rays that are given off
from radium. These rays are
small particles Of matter which
leave the radium with great
force. Working upon this basis.
Sidis believes that by attaching
block Of radium to the stern
Of his airship the propelling
power will be derived from the
force with which the alpha rays
leave the radium In the same
manner that a skyrocket Is pro-
PEELED through space.
Sidis declares such a terrific
speed will be generated that 1t
will take one to the planet We
nus in 20 minutes.

The Citizen.
IN s. Shaler.)

Now that the time of voting In
drawing near and we are hearing SO
much of the rights of citizens, the
rights of party, it might be well 10
consider also what some of its duties
are Among the books that are like
a tonic in their bracing view of Am
erican government and politics in
THE Citizen" by Nathaniel South
gate Shaler.
Mr.. Shaler was southerner by
birth and training, he was also q
pupil of the great Agassiz, and a pro-
fessor in Harvard University. From
this it can be seen he was a man of
broad experience in that he had lived
in two very different parts of the
same country. He always took deep
interest in local politics.
When such a man speaks he has
something to say. Some Of the chap
ter headings will give an idea of the
scope of the book. They are What
Liberty Is" "On the snare of the
Average Man in the State" Citizen
ship and Party Allegiance" "Immigra-
tion," Universal Suffrage and the
Negro Question" The dominant idea
in all these chapters is that a man
shall not live unto himself alone" but
that the practice of disinterested sell
sacrifice is needed in politics as wen
as in business or in society at large.

Cmatilla, Ore, Aug. 1.-Two no.
boes, who it is since learned. were
none other than two detectives. who
were here for two days the early part
of the week and there may be some.
thing doing here in certain circles
which may cause surprise to many OF
our citizens.
The coolness of the past few days
makes one believe we are to have a
very early fall and a severe winter.
Mr.. Lawrence Bullock and Miss
Ollie Kell. two very popular Umatilla
young people were married at the
court house in Pendleton on Wednes-
day morning. Only the intimate
friends Of the contracting parties were
present The young couple arrived
on the. evening motor and were met
by large number of their friends
with showers of rice. who wished them
all kinds of good luck in their we'd
ded life. Mr. Bullock is a popular
0. r. & ~ car checker and both
young people are decidedly popular.
Ihey will reside in the new home re-
Gently completed for them on the
south side of the city.
/B. F. Curtis of Cheney. Wash. a
former resident of Umatilla. now
wealthy Washington rancher, was
here this week to dispose of some
real estate holdings. He at one time
ran boats from here on the Column
oia river and told many good stories
of I'VE good old times in Umatilla."
Mr.. Curtis left here on the building
of the o. r. & n. through this section
and has seen many changes in Una
tilla county since then.
The ranchers are now in their bus
lest time and the scarcity Of labor
makes it very hard on them. They
are now in the height of the third al
falfa cutting and have every indica-
ton that a fourth crop will also be
made.
Many inquirers are being made as
TO when work on the new Umatilla
river bridge will begin as it was the
general impression that it was to be
completed before the end of Septem-
Der.
j. A. Relvee and H. Heland of the

to refuse to allow any candidate who
did not have his nominating petition
filed by August IA, to have his cut or
argument appear in the pamphlet.
Chief Clerk Corey had announced
that. though the latest time for can
didates filing their nominating petit
tons and having their cuts and ar
guments appear in pamphlets was
August Il, that he would extend the
time to August % unless a protest
was made.
In view OF the two protests he has
now reversed himself and any candi-
date who filed or will file petitions
after August II wiz. not be allowed
to avail himself of the pamphlet as
