SELLS-FLoT0 AGENT
VISITS PENDLET0A

William Roddy, agent of the great
Sells-Floto Circus. is a visitor in town
today.
Mr. Roddy states that this popular
circus will be with us on the End day
OF June, and while here devoted him.
self TO making contracts for supplies
and doing the hundred and one things
necessary in order TO smooth the path
for such an immense attraction as he
represents.
That the Sells-Floto circus will be
more magnificent in every way, larger
and better equipped, is an assured
fact. because the list of attractions
given by him presents one of the most
remarkable bills ever seen under a
big tent.
The Sells-Floto tent this year has
been greatly enlarged and will be ca
pable of seating comfortably 10000
people.
The price of admission will be 25
cents or half that usually charged by
all the big shows. This policy of pop
ular prices commenced by manage
ment of the Sells-Floto circus last
year was so successful that it will be
continued. This is probably the most
remarkable offer ever made in the
history of amusements. 1t is hard to
imagine how the Sells-Floto people
can make it pay, but the fact that

WEST POINT EXAMINATIONS
COMMENCED TODAY

Washington, May 3, Special exam
nations of candidates for appoint
ments as cadets at the West Point ma
tional military academy were COM
menced today at military posts
throughout the country. In ordering
the examinations, the war department
explained that for number of years
the cadet corps at West Point has
been from 75 to S5 per cent below its
full quota. 1t is regarded as vital i'm
portance to the army that the acad-
emy turn out the largest possible
number of graduates.
In the belief that many young men
are deferred from taking the West
Point examinations by the expense of
the long journey to the present CEN
ters of examination, candidates here
after will be examined at the nearest
suitable military post. Today's ex-
aminations inaugurates the new re-
gime.
To further stimulate applications
the war department hereafter will
make public the existence of any va
cancies in the congressional districts.
over a hundred such vacancies now
exist. and 1t is expected that they will
be filled as a result of the examina-
tons today.

VS.. BALD PATE
SUBJECT FOR DEBATE

Washington, May 2.-"Resolved,
That whiskers are a greater detriment
to a man than bald head"
This momentous question, of world
wire Importance. will be discussed to-
night at a debate to be held at the
National Press Club. The affirmative
will be upheld by Congressman Nicho-
las Longworth, OF Ohio, son-in-law of
Col Theodore Roosevelt, and Con-
gresham Ollie James, of Kentucky,
one OF the democratic leaders in the
house. The negative side of the pro-
position will be defended by Senator
John Worth Kern, of Indiana, and
former Speaker Joseph G. Cannon. of
Illinois. Messrs. James and Long
worth are possessed of beans"
which are about as bare of foliage as
billiard ball, while Messrs. Kern
and Cannon are proud possessors of
facial adornments, the former sport
ing a beard of the variety worn by
Justice Charles f. Hughes, while
Uncle Joe's" hirsute appendage re-
sembles that of Lincoln.
The joint debate has aroused tre-
mendous interest in congressional and
and official circles and the demand
for listening space at tonight's affair
will tax the facilities Of the National
Press Club to the uttermost. Speaker
Champ Clark will be present in an
advisory capacity, and President Taft
has displayed the keenest interest in
the debate. The debate is to be nom
partisan and the participants will not
be permitted to make boards or
bare beans" assume political import
ance. 1t was to prevent any attempt
to make partisan capital out of the
issue that one democrat and one re-
publican was chosen on each side.
In view of the success that prom
ises to attend tonights wordy encoun-
ter 1t is proposed to have another de-
bate in the near future on a subject
ir which President Taft will be vitally
interested. 1t Is:
Resolved. That it is better for a
man to be too fat than too lean"

UkAT|LLA MAY DAY
WAS GREAT SUCCESS
Especial Correspondence.)


Umatilla, Ore, May 2.-The May
day picnic given by the local Redmen
was an event long to be remembered
in eastern Oregon's oldest town. In
fact some of the residents were
brought back to the days when people
were as bees in a hive. AS early as
6 o'clock a. m. people flocked in to
the city to take in the sports Of the
day and every event arranged by the
committee on arrangements went with
a swing. The day was an ideal one,
regular "king's" weather (using an
eastern expression.) The Switzler fer
ry and the w. H. Switzler launch
were kept busy all day taking crowds
across the noble Columbia to the pic
mic grounds which were at the Switz-
Ter grove, the most ideal resort of its
kind in Umatilla county. The ball
game between the Redmen of Her
miston and Umatilla was one Of the
principal features at the grove and
the victory was an easy one for the
Umatilla boys. Luncheon was also
served on the grounds and judging
from the flavor of the pork and beans
the cook must have been in Boston
"onct." After the picnic the crowds
were taken to the Switzler ranch at
Plymouth in the "Umatilla" and there
a buckaroo program was pulled off.
Those who performed the many feats
in the exhibition which was ably man.
aged by Guy Rounds with the assist
ance of Heaster Moore, wereequal to
any of a similar exhibition ever held
in the west (Roundup not excepted).
The following were those who took
part in the many events.
Rlnding the wild steer-Ray Vose,
Claud Gardner and Heaster Moore.
The bucking horse contest was par
ticipated in by the following and this
event was very enthusiastic one:
Alex Mcintyre, Heaster Moore, Ray
Voise, Earl Shaw, Claude Gardner,
Chas. Gilmore, and last but not least,
viii Switzler. Nine other wild horses
were to have been ridden had it not
been for ID washing sandstorm
which prevented a further exhibition.
The "Umatilla" returned to this city
at $3.50 and in the evening the Red
mems big dance was held in Pounds S
hall. The war dance was the open
ing of this affair and was the best
yet. The hall was tastefully decorat-
ed and was crowded with guests from
Pendleton, Echo, Stanfield, Butter
creek. Hermiston and Portland. The
costumes Of the ladies with the beau
tiful music of the United Orchestra of
Pendleton, made the hall perfect
dreamland. Ice cream and cake were
served by the ladies during the even
ing. Mrs. D. Hogan and Mrs. H..
Means being the presiding ladies. The
committees Of the lodge are certain
ly to be congratulated on the success
of the Redmen's 1911 May Day.

"As soon as an American gets
a little money he buys an auto.
1t serves him at the same time
for a bedroom, a diningroom, a
mode of amusement and an in

their lanters In their caps, coming
home from, work in their forty

on the streets of Chicago women
