the strain and wear and tear Of her
arduous occupation. She says:
Through improper food. imperfect

ly wrecked, and attribute my recov.
cry entirely to the regular use Of
Grape-Nuts food. Itehas, l assure you,
proven an inestimable boon 10 me.
Almost Immediately after beginning
the use of Grape-Nuts found graft
flying change in my condition. The ter
ribls weakness that formerly pros
trated me after a few hours Of work.
was perceptibly lessened and is now
only a memory-it never returns.
Ten days after beginning on Grape
Nuts l experienced a wonderful in.
crease in mental vigor and physical
energy, and continued use has entire
ly freed me from the miserable in.
sornia and nervousness from which

EP|TOME OF EVENTS
GENERAL NEWS AND NOTES
FRESH FROM THE WIRE.
THE STORY IN A NUTSHELL
Embracing a Condensation of Events
In Which Readers Generally Are
More or Less Concerned.
Washington.

All the universities and colleges in
the United States will be classified in
the order of their merit when the in
vestigation being conducted by the
United States bureau of education is
completed. Incidentally this investi-
cation already is said to have brought
to light fake" universities and
schools which award all sorts of de-
grees with a minimum of study.
One Of the most serious attacks
ever made upon the treaty making
power of the United States will mark
the opening of the term of supreme
court of the United States next
month. The Italian government.
through its consul general on the
Pacific coast, will argue that the
United States possesses broad enough
treaty making power to deal with the
settlement of estates of foreigners
who die in this country without leav-
ing wills. Public officials from Cali
fornia will contend that the federal
government has no such power.
The Hobo convention, which opened
here was a dismal failure. Instead OF
an army of 1000 delegates to enter
protest against present industrial con-
ditions and voice demands to congress
for legislation aimed to enable men
to live without working. less than
fifty knights of the pike were in evil
dence at the headquarters. which had
been provided by James Eads How,
the millionaire hobo. and grandson OF
the builder of the Eads bridge at St.
workouts. Employees of the Western
Maryland railroad went among the
seventy-two hobo delegates and Of
fered all OF them work, resulting in a
mad stampede, leaving but sixteen in
line The stampede was to get away
from the suggestion.

HARTMAN men FIRM
STRIKE WILL ENSUE n KRUT1S-
cHNITT DOESN'T YIELD.
MEMS MINDS ARE MADE Up
Labor Officials TO Talk to Workmen
and Kline Will Probably Come
60 Omaha for Conference.

San Francisco.-Unless Julius
Kruttschnitt, vice president and d.
rector Of maintenance Of the Harri-
man lines. recedes from his absolute
refusal to recognize the federation of
shop workers or its committees on
tjose lines. he will be confronted
with a strike. No reason for believ.
ing that he will recede has been
found by labor leaders here.
General advisory committees Of the
five international shop craft unions
which are comprised in the federation
concluded here a three days confer.
ence with the international officers of
of those unions. The general officers
were entrusted with full charge of the
situation hencefOrth and International
President ]. w. Kline Of the black.
smiths union. their appointed spokes-
man, said that the general officers
had made up their minds what they
would do.
"Mr. Knittschnitt will have to
make concessions" said Mr.. Kline to
night. or the public for which he has
exhibited SO much regard probably
will suffer because he does not"
'Will the general officers ask for
another conference with Mr.. krutts-
chnitt," was asked.
THAT is not in our present plans"
he replied. I'VE are going to Los
Angeles tonight and may find some
way of approaching the subject
again, but none has occurred to US SO
far.
Recognition of a federation Of
unions involves no principles that are
not included in recognition of individ.
ual unions, already conceded by the
Hartman lines. and no principles not
already utilized in the formation Of
the Hartman system itself. 1t is our
right and we shall insist upon it."
Asked concerning the prospect that
the federal statutes against combina-
tiOns in restraint of trade may be in
volved by officers of the international
unions. he said:
"Here We took office, we took all
responsibilities of the office. If these
include going to Jail. We will 60 to

PENDLETON WILL CELEBRATE
FOURTH Of JULY IN STYLE

Pendleton will have a Fourth Of
July celebration and the most of the
program will be given at. the Round
up park. 1t will not be a mercenary
affair but will be intended for the
comfort md entertainment of the
people, and especially OF those who
come to the city from the-country and
the small towns of the country,
This was the unanimous decision
reached at the meeting of the Com
mercial club last evening where the
question of a celebration was the
special order of the day. The report
of the committee that canvassed the
sentiment of the business men was
made by Mayor Murphy and it was
favorable to celebration held at the
Roundup park. win Moore, another
member Of the committee. supple
mented the report with more details
and also declared that the sentiment
was strong for celebration else
where than upon the streets.
The report Of the special commit
tee was adopted and the proposition
of arranging for celebration then
came up for consideration. T. G.
Montgomery moved that celebration
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1911-05-10

be held that the exercises be held at
the Roundup park and the naming of
the necessary committees be left to
the president. The motion carried
by a rising ana unanimous vote
President Smythe has not yet ap-
pointed the committee. but is busy
upon the selection of the men to
serve.
Previous to the voting Of the motion
for the celebration enthusiastic talks
We're made by Mayor Murphy, Pres'-
dent Smythe, Leon Cohen, r. Alex
ander, Il. G. Montgomery and others.
The sentiment in favor Of holding the
exercises at tho Roundup grounds
was practically unanimous but a
question arose as to whether or not
the forenoon program should also be
held there. ]. r. Raley suggested
that the speaking program in the
forenoon Be held at the fair pavilion
and the afternoon program Mt the
Roundup park. This would remove
the necessity for the people walking
to the Roundup grounds twice during
the day, It was finally decided to
leave such details as this to the COM
mittee.

sender yacht armada was placed on
board ship today for carriage to Ger
many, where in June the fourth in
ternational contest between Yankee
and German boats will be held The

America has won two of the three
previous contests, both victories over
the Teutons having taken place at
Marblehead. in 1906 and 1909. The
Germans proved superior in their
home waters at Kiel in 1907, and the
invaders are anxious to retrieve this
defeat. At least two of the present
yachts are expected to prove well
adapted to the rough water condi-
tions that usually prevail on the mar
row blight of the Baltic where the
race will be held
June 10 has been set as the starting
date for this years international
soner races. Emperor William has Of
fered the trophy that will go to the
winner while Prince Henry of Prus-
sia contributes the second prize.
The Blbelot is owned by Harry
Payne Whitney and r. w. Emmons.
2nd Of Boston. The Beaver is the
property Of G. B. Dabney, George
Nichols and \. II. Eustace and will
be sailed by them. The yacht won
second in the Spanish sender race
last YEAR, while the Gina, owned by
Guy Lowell, finished third.
