Theatrical Dog Gets Left.

One member of the THE Girl, The
Man and The Game" troupe has not
yet arrived in this city where the play
is to be given tonight. However he
is not a member who appears before
the footlights, so his absence will not
mar the entertainment. Bum" an
Ayrdale dog. is the missing member
and he inadvertently stepped off at
Bingham Springs station as the train
was passing that point this morning.
Not until the train had gotten five
miles this side Of the station did Bob
Leroy. manager Of the troupe, learn
Of his loss. He then began measures
for rescuing Bum" as the dog is a
favorite with the manager and Is also
used for advertising purposes. Speci-
al instructions were given for the care
Of the dog and he will be brought
here in train No. II this afternoon.
According to Leroy he would rather
lose any member of his troupe in
preference to Bum" He came to
the show in st. Louis many months
ago and was adopted by the members
of the troupe.

air dangerously near the speakers
head and struck bystander on the
outskirts of the crowd. A second mis-
le was better aimed and struck the
man who was attempting to speak

This caused the minister to tempo

success than did his predecessor.

John Vert, local capitalist, is the
man accused of throwing the eggs.
Among the other accusers is Rev.
John Lininger, pastor of the local
Presbyterian church, who says he was
standing directly behind Vert and saw
him throw the eggs. He says he said
nothing when Vert threw the first
egg but that when he threw the Sec
ond one, he tapped Vert on the shoul-
der and told him not to do that. Vert
is said to have told the minister to
mind his own business, whereupon the
minister replied, 81 will mind your
business in the morning"

looms make business. He denied that
this phase of the subject was an issue
to be considered. "If the selling of
whiskey and beer is on a par with
cutting throats and highway robbery,
why it is not good business to make
money out Of" he declared.
Continuing he said: 'I am willing
to concede that the prohibIrionists are
honest and high minded. But when

much left to be said in their favor.
They are narrow minded and biggot-
ed. 1t takes something else besides
honesty and highmindedness to fit
man for the occupation of minding
other peoples business and this Is
what the prohibitionists would do.
Good people have been the cause
of more misery and have done more
evil than all the rogues and criminals
in the country. A criminal or a rogue
can be caught and placed in Jail or
hung. But not so a good man. When
a narrow minded. biggoted good man

Darrow characterized as ridiculous
the claims of the prohibitionists that

EII.ERS' PIANO HOUSE
TO QUIT BUSINESS

Word has just been received that
Eilers Piano House will close their
store In this city Hereafter, this
great concern will confine their eff
forts to wholesaling in this locality.
Owing to the fact that the immense
new six story warehouse which Eilers
Piano House has been erecting in
Portland has been delayed by the
serious weather and the tying up of
the heating plant by the eastern
railroad strikes, makes it necessary
for all the pianos now in Pendleton
to be disposed of here 1t is safe to
assume that the Eilers people will
offer very attractive inducements in
the way of prices and terms, in or
der to dispose of their big stock in
this city in the shortest possible time.
The decision TO retire from the local
field was reluctantly reached by the
EiIers people who have maintained
an up-to-date retail piano store here
for the last five years. However. the
scope of their work has increased so
tremendously that in order to do this
growing locality justice, it was decid-
ed to do business here in the future
on the basis outlined above.
