HERM|STON WILL
COME IN FORCE
WEST END TOWN ENTHUSIASTIC
OVER FAIR AND ROUNDUP
Plans TO Send Whole Population Up
Friday, September Especial Train
Will Be Run-Attempt Made to
Secure Double Train Service.

All Hermiston will be in Pendleton
| Friday, September 29 Hermiston day
/ at the district fair and Roundup.
! Schools and business houses in the ir-
rigation town will be crossed, special
excursion trains will be run and it is
expected that the town will be prac-
tically depopulated.
The west end of the county, partic-
ularly Hermiston and vicinity, is ex-
ceptionally enthusiastic over the
Roundup and canvass of the town
yesterday by some of the business men
of the place soon disclosed the fact
that all its citizens were unanimous in
their desire to take IN the big Pen
dleton show. A special train will
therefore be run in the morning and
back in the evening. 1t will be Her.
miston train, though stops will prob
ably be made at the other west end
towns unless they, too, succeed in Sc
curing special trains.
President C. E. Roosevelt of the fair
association, is endeavoring to secure
double train service for the entire
week and it is probable that the motor
car will be kept in continuous service
during the day and most of each
night.
Though the committee still needs
about $1,000 more in oder to carry
out present plans, it is not apprehend-
ed that any difficulty will be encoun-
tered. In fact local business men
seem more than anxious to double the
amount of their original subscription.
Secretary James Gwinn was aroused
from his bed last night by telephone
message from Bond Brothers, stating
that they were desirous of being
among the first to increase the
amount of their subscription. This is
but another one of many Illustrations
of the splendid spirit which charac-
terizes the movement,

MARY MANNERING WILL
RECOVER FROM OPERATION

New York, Sept. 14.-Miss Mary
Mannering, the celebrated actress ap-
pearlng in Love Watches" and who
also rehearsed for Broadway pro-
duction, is resting easily this morning
after a critical operation for appen-
dicitis.
Miss Mannering was attacked by
the disease while rehearsing Monday
night. She was instantly removed to
a hotel and later to st. Mary's hos
pital, where two OF New York's most
noted surgeons performed the oper-
alton. The operation took place last
night and owing to the unusual hour
at which it was performed, it is OBJ
vious Miss Mannering's condition was
dangerous.
This morning she has completely
recovered from the effects of the an
aesthetics and, while naturally feel
ing pain, is cheerful
Miss Mannering appeared on the
Northwest circuit last spring. She
scored tremendous success in both
Portland and Spokane.

Arguing that the exclusive right to
the use OF the waters of the Umatilla
river exists in the Walla Walla, Cay
use and Umatilla Indians and their
assigns, United States Attorney John
McCourt yesterday intervened in the
hearing in this city in the adjudica-
ton of the water rights of the set
tiers. The petition in intervention was
presented to Water Superintendent F.
NJ. Saxton, last evening by Robert Nc
| CURE, United States assistant attor-
| ney, who arrived from Portland on
| the evening train for that purpose.
| Saxton still has the petition under
consideration, not being able to de-
termine whether or not it is claim
and therefore subject to the usual fee
charge or whether it is simply a no.
tice. -
The action of McCourt was influ-
| enced by positive Instructions reeeiv-
ed from the attorney general of the
United States. The effect of favor
able consideration Of the petition will
in no way affect the government or
private irrigation projects in the west
end of the county but in the opinion
of some it will make possible the irri-
CATION of several thousand acres of
land lying along the Umatilla river
bottom east of Pendleton. Various at
tempts have been made in the past to
water some of the reservation land
but every attempt has been frustrated
by the Byers Milling company, which
hos nl nrinr riUhrS 20 all tho
water in the river and up to this time
has made such claims stick.
The government petition demands
that all water rights which may be
granted for agricultural, manIfactur-
ing or domestic purposes shall be
made subject to the paramount right
of the Indians to recall the water at
any time that it may be required of
them or their assigns" The use Of
the latter phrase. it is said, throws
open the doors to the entry of the
land spectators who may desire to
purchase the Indian lands which will
soon be decided by the government.
These lands have been held in trust
for period of 25 years and as the
time has almost expired, final patents
are being issued as rapidly as possible.
Suit Based ON Early Treaty.
The suit is based on the treaty with
the Indians dated in June, 1855, and
through which the Indians surrender
ed their lands which contained wa
ter sheds of all the principal branches
of the Umatilla river. Among them
are the Toncannon river, Powder riv-
er, Willow creek and a iarge portion
of the Snake river.
When the treaty was signed and ap-
proved by congress. il contained res
ervation of the lands now used by the
Indians and known as the Umatilla
reservation. The treaty also provided
that in order to encourage the In
dians to abandon savage mode OF
life and take up agriculture and the
manual arts. the United States guar
anteed to provide the tribes with mon-
ey. schools, wagons and to reserve for
the perpetual use of the red men such
waters of the Umatilla river as may
be necessary at any time in the fu-
ture for the encouragement of any OF
these lines Of industry.
1t is pointed out in the suit that this
treaty antedated any use which white
settlers have made Of the waters Of

Prospects Bright for a Good

Increased.
HIGH SCHOOL SHOWS
THE LARGEST INCREASE
Instructors and Students Settling
Down to Work and Beginning Is
PrOpitious - Registration Has
Reached S04--Two Rooms of Field
School Will Have to Be Used-New
Agricultural Course Is Popular.

With slightly increased attendance
over the opening registration Of last
year, and the prospects bright for a
still further increase in attendance
by the close OF the week, Pendleton's
public schools are now fairly well en-
tered into another years work. The
students in every room Of every build
ing are settling down to the tasks
ahead OF them with a degree of
earnestness that is entirely satisfac-
tory TO all the instructors from the
city superintendent on down
The registration at noon today was
S04, which Is a gain Of one over last
year. The greatest increase is in the
high, Washington and Hawthorne
schools, Lincoln school still being a
little below last years registration.
The hopes which the board of df-
rectors have ben entertaining for the
past ten years Of being able to aban-
don the Field school and care for all
the pupils in the other buildings, are
not to materialize yet. 1t was an
nounced today by Superintendent
Landers that it would be necessary to
occupy at least one room and possi-
bly, two in the Field school building.
The new agricultural department
which was introduced in the high
school this year for the first time, is
proving popular, seven girls and seven
boys presenting themselves for admis-
sion to this department which is to
be under the direction OF II. S. Pate.

A GREAT AMERICAN PLAY.

For local playgoers the treat of the
season comes next when al the opera
house, November "a, the United Play
company will present Eugene Wal
ter's drama of New York life of to-
day, Paid in Full"
Not to know of this most celebrat-
ed play Of the time is to confess ones
self uniformed as to the exceptional
features of the American stage: not
to have seen it is to be outside the
$500, 900 who had witnessed 2012 per-
~formances up to the end of the last
season.
No play ever produced in this coun-
try or abroad has the brilliant rec
ord of Paid in Full" 1t has been
e by more persons, it has been
played by more companies and more
times than any other, it has had
longer runs. Two years straight away
and several return engagements are
to its credit in New York, where as
in Chicago it won celebrity as the
only drama to go through a summer.
Five companies appeared in it all last
season, and the same are touring the
country this year. 1t is the only play
ever acted by so large a number of
companies at the same time.
All this goes to show that paid
in Full generously merits its fame
as the greatest play of the age. "a
triumph is the tribute paid to it by
Renhoid Wolf. the clever writer OF
the New York Morning Telegraph,
real play OF real life. with real hum.
an beings" he said, which Is g fitting
summary. 1t is a play of America,
With strong characters and strong
situations. 1t is singularly lifelike
and OF engrossing interest. Those
/ who have seei 1t are it's most en-
thusiastic adr'rers; those who have
not will surely welcome this oppor.

A fire in the new Bruce Mercantile
compauy's store last Friday night
burned a hole about n foot square
through the floor, The fire started
near the stove and probably some one
threw an old cigar stub into a wood

which burned very slowly through the
night. When the store was opened in
the morning the room was filled with
smoke and the floor boards were still
s~mouldering. Fortunately there was
no inflamable material near where the
FIRE started or the upw handsome store
room would have been Quilted by the
fire nend.
