PENoLeroN PLANS BIRD SHOW.
Eastern Oregon Poultrymen Will Make
Splendid Exhibition.

Eastern OTeBon TOuitTfTnen WIN "dNS
Splendid Exhibition.
Pendleton-The first annual exhibit
of the Umatilla- Morrow County Poul-
try association will be held in this city
Tuesday. Wednesday and Thursday,
January 25, 26 and 27. The show will
be held in the large store room in the
Smith Crawford building formerly oc-

mittee in charge has already started to
get the room in shape for the show.
The association has secured the SER
vices of Elmer Dixon, of Oregon City,
who will be present all during the
show and will personally pass on each
entry. Mr.. Dixon is member of the
American Poultry association and is
licensed by that organization to judge
all varieties of poultry, and is recog-
nized authority in this line Of work in
the Northwest, being a breeder of
poultry himself, and HE knowledge has
been gained by actual experience.
In order that each exhibitor may
have full knowledge of what his ex-
hibit is worth and in order to stimulate
the breeding of only first class Evarie-
ties of birds in the two counties, the
scure card system will be used through
out the show and each bird will pass a
most rigid examination, and the result
of each examination will be contained
on the score card hung in front of the
pen containing the bird.
In additonn to the other features of
the poultry show, the committee has
in view the holding of cat and dog
show during part of the time, and ap-
propriate prizes will be offered in this
line to cause large exhibit of this
class of animals to be shown.

ARIZONA STARTLED BY COMET
NebuIous Body With Flowing Tail
Plainly Seen at Sunset.

Douglas, Arizona, Jan. Without
being heralded, there appeared in the
western horizon just before dusk this
evening, spectacle such as none in
these parts had ever before witnessed.
1t was nothing more nor less than q
magnificent comet, or body having
all the appearances of one, with nu-
cleus, coma and great tail. The
word was quickly passed around and
soon the whole city was out viewing
the beautiful spectacle. At first it
was supposed as q matter of course il
was Halley's comet, though this is rot
expected until April, but word from
Professor Douglas, astronomer at the
state university at Tucson, is that the
stranger is distinct from Halley's.
The same word also comes to the Dis
patch here from Flagstaff university,
in Northern Arizona.
The wonder of the spectacle was it's
completeness and its appearance with
out any warning just after sunset.
Douglas is about 1000 feet above
the sea and has wonderfully clear at
mosphere. No comet like this one has
ever before been eeen in this section.

Paris, Jan. 24.--It is rumored here
that the delay in the final settlement
of the terms of the Hankow- -Szechun
railway loan was due chiefly to dis
putes over details connected with the
apportionment of the roadway between
the financial groups interested, the
construction material and similar ques-
tions. According to statement in
well-infomred quarters, the French
group, headed by the Indo- China bank.
held out because they considered that
they had not been fairly treated in the
apportionment.

Tenement House Proprietor Of
fers Big Premium for
Flat Rate.
TIRED OF WATCHING TENANTS
Superintendent of Public Works
Turns Down Chinaman's
Request.

Superintendent Marston Campbell is,
as fast as possible, installing water
meters on the premises of the big water
users of the city. This course does
not meet with the unqualified approval
of some of the aforementioned big
water users, as was demonstrated yes
terday when he received call from
the Chinese proprietor of one of the
obnoxious tenements that sullS the
purity of the Spotless Town.
The Chinese mentioned has for a
long time been paying a water rate of
$50. Mr.. Campbell some time ago in
stalled water meter on the premises
of the Chinaman, and the meter reg
istered against the celestial an annual
rate of $50. Notwithstanding this
fact, the Chinese yesterday called on
Superintendent Campbell and offered,
if he would remove the meter, to pay
fiat rate of 5000.
Mr.. Campbell could hardly believe
that he had heard Alright, but the Chi
nese repeated his offer. And it finally
filtered through Mr.. Campbell IS head
that the tenement house proprietor was
| tired of watching his tenants to see
that they did not waste he water and
was willing to pay the additional Sill
to escape the trouble. But as the ten
ants might use as much as $500 worth
of water, Mr.. Campbell has concluded
that it would be cheaper for the Ter.
ritory to refuse the tempting offer and
let the water meter remain.
The meters already installed have
greatly reduced the waste of water.
