Mr., BHHBE DIES

o. p. Beebe, the unfortunate
man mentioned in our last issue
who was kicked on the head by a
horse which fractured his skull,
died last Monday evening at the
hospital having never regained
conscienciousness.
A message was sent to his
family at Seattle and his son is
now en- route here to take the
body to Seattle for interment
The son is coming by Shaniko
and Prineville and has missed
connections and met with delays
that were unexpected. Some
one who is not familiar with the
most direct routes into this sec
ton has evidently directed him
to come that way rather than by
way of Baker.
Mr.. Beebe leaves a wife and
four children. The son who is
coming is a married man and has
one child.

RABBIT DRIVES A SUCCESS.

The rabbit drives of last Satur-
day and Sunday were a success
and a large number were killed.
1t has been stated by some attend
ing that quite a few escaped
owing to lack of organization of
those participating, but this is to
be expected as the first attempts
are more or less experimental.
The Times-Herald is informed
there will be other drives today
and tomorrow in the same terri
tory, the wings of fence being in
the vicinity Of the John Jones
place and the drives from the
Korten place in that direction.
Grant Reynolds has a scheme
that will help materially in ex-
terminating these pests: Mr..
Reynolds and Dave Miller tried
poison with good results. They
took a quantity of strichnine to
which they added sugar, making
a rather thick syrup. This they
placed on some hay and scattered
in places where stock could not
get to it. They counted 81 dead
rabbits the next morning and no
doubt as many more were poison
ed and moved away from the
immediate vicinity before dying.
This should be practiced by all
who can use the poison conven-
iently.
1t seems that at intervals of
several years the rabbits become
thick throughout this western
country and are a menace for a
season or two when their number
is again cut down in one way or
another. When we secure rail-
roads and people on every quar-
ter section Of the land the rabbit
pest will be a thing of the past,
as will also be the coyote that
now troubles the focks Of sheep.
All this will come about within
a reasonable time, but in the
meantime 1--WE must do the best
we can and get rid Of them.

last issue of The Times Herald
stating that homesteaders may
assign portion Of entries within
reclamation projects, applies only
to government projects. The
article was published in a Boise
paper without any qualified ap-
plication and as The Times Her
aid had suggested such a privi-
lege be granted under any recla-
nation project, it took it for
granted this applied. We have
been put right in this matter
after consulting Register Fare
of the local land Office and hasten
to make the facts known to our
readers. While this gives relief
to some people it doesn't go far
enough as homesteaders under
private reclamation projects are
just as deserving of considera-
ton.

THE FIRST NATIONAL BANK

The stockholders Of the First
National Bank of this city held
their annual meeting last Satur-
day, electing the former board OF
directors, who afterward re-
elected the executive ofIicess for
the insuing year as follows;
John d. DAILY, president; c. A.
Haines, vice-president; j. l..
Gault. cashier; and A. c. We'll
come, assistant cashier.
The first consideration of the
stockholders of this bank has al
ways been in the interest of
safety to its depositors and the
funds committed to its charge.
Following their past policy of
strengthening their institution,
the board Of directors voted to
transfer $5, 10000 to the surplus
fund, thus increasing same from
$45, 100000 to $50, 100000. which
surplus, in conjunction with the
banks Capital of $25, 600. 90,
gives the bank n combined Capt.
tai and Surplus, or working capi-
tai of $75, 10000.
The banks advertisement this
week is worthy of special note
as invites business upon an un-
usually strong basis. and upon
the forceful statement that every
dollar of its capital is reinforced
by two dollars Of surplus, thus
affording its depositors an un-
usual degree Of safety. Such a
showing has been made possible
only through the safe, conserva-
tive policy which the bank has
so closely adhered to throughout
its entire history.

A JOLLY GOOD TIME.

Some sixty friends went out to
the hospitable country home Of
Judge and Mrs. II. G. Levens
last Saturday evening upon an
invitation to Down der Dutch. Z"
Two large bob sleds and an
auto were used to take the party
out and back and il was certainly
a noisy, jolly crowd that awaken
ed those inclined to be sleepy as
they started on the trip. All
kinds of instruments were put
to use and there was singing,
horns, bells, drums and almost
everything imaginable to make a
noise.
Judge and Mrs. Levens were
assisted in entertaining by Mr..
and Mrs. II, b. Mace, Mr.. and
Mrs A. G. Welcome, and Mr.. and
Mrs, j. c. Welcome, Jr. The
ladies were dressed in costume
appropriate to carry out the
effects of a Holland party. Sew
eral of the guests were also cos
TUNED for the occasion.
The handsome parlors were
decorated with the national colors
and Holland scenes adorned the
walls. Each lady was presented
with a pair of miniature wooden
shoes on which was found the
table number at which they
should begin playing 500. The
gentlemen each received a minia-
ture "stien" on which was indi-
Gated like information.
The cards numbering the tables
and the score cards were also OF
Dutch design in fact everything
was carried out in n most pleas
ing manner. AT the close of the
hands il was found that Mrs. +.
r. Purington and Mrs. A. O..
Faulkner had made the highest
scores among the ladies, Messrs.
Vim. Fare and Ed Egli receiv-
ing like honors among the men.
Mrs. John Gemberling and Mr..
Alex Hanley were awarded the
consultations. The handsome
prizes awarded were in keeping
with the Dutch" features of
the entire party. Those not re-
ceiving n prize were then permit
ted to draw numbers for another
prize the lucky numbers being
held by Miss Martha Hanley and
Mr.. r. T. Hughet.
A most delightful supper was
served in two large rooms up
stairs which was complete in
every detail.
1t was one of the most sue
cessful and enjoyable society
events of the season and one
which will long be pleasantly
remembered by the many friends
who attended.

ENTERTAINED HOME Folks.

After a season Of good work by
the Mothers Club in entertain
ments, bazaars. suppers, ETC., to
raise funds for the children's
playground, juvenile books for
the library and other good causes,
the mothers decided to spend
one evening looking after their
own families. therefore the hus-
bands and children were treated
to a royal time at the new Ma
sonic building last evening. A
short program was followed by a
big supper, games and a general
good time. The mothers have
proven themselves good enter
tainers and no doubt the hus-
bands appreciate them even
more since the high jinks" last
night.

The Times-Herald has nothing
to add to its railroad news of
last week. The announcement
that sufficient rails have been
purchased to lay the track of the
N. C. & o. road through this
section north to Pendleton, has
been verified by the Engineering
world, an eastern railroad paper.
This in connection with other
encouraging news published last
issue indicates that we will have
railroads from almost every
direction at no distant day.

WOULD BENEFIT SOUTH END.

A Caldwell, Idaho, paper states
that the Short Line railroad has
made official announcement that
work will be started on the pro-
posed new line from that place
south to Winnemucca, Nevada,
in the spring. This line is sur
veyed through the southern por-
ton of this county and should it
build along this route would bene-
fit the land holders and settlers
in that section very materially.

1t seems strange to the inno-
cent and unsuspecting people OF
this interior section why there
should be opposition to the pro
posed good roads laws in the leg
islature. We want good roads.
1t is possible the proposition OF
working convicts on the roads
would not be practical, especially
out this distance from the peni-
tenitiary; it may be also, that
some of the bills contain jokers"
and that someone will make
money out of the good roads
movement, vet if they give us
value received what's the odds?
1t looks like there is more wrong
with the legislature than with
the proposed bills.

Long before the directors met

chiefs of the Hartman system
we're busy mapping out the
course that will be pursued in the
next six years, the time desig-
mated by Judge Lovett for the
expenditure of the money. First
of all the territory was investi-
gated to determine what new
lines would be required and what
ones would be likely to net the
biggest and quickest returns.
Then, after careful analysis, re-
concentrations were made TO the
New York office for the con-
structioh of certain new lines
and for the double tracking of
the Columbia River Road from
Portland to Huntington, which
is to be one of the first pieces of
work undertaken under the new
authorization, according to the
Eastern advices.
