CHEMISTRY OF GOOD ROADS
First Course in the World Now Of
fered at College.

Corvallis, Dec. l9.-The first
course in highway chemistry that
has ever been offered in any college
in the world has just been announe-
ed at the Oregon Agricultural Col
lege. Professor John Fulton Of the
chemistry department has taken this
step as a result Of the increased de-
mand for good roads. The course
includes both physical and chemical
tests of tars, bituminous products,
asphalis. and all mixtures such as
sands. gravels. rocks, and other in
gredienfs Of the modern highway.
Concrete testing and tests Of the
chemical changes in all these sub

VALUABLE MARBLE DEPOSIT
Great Quantities Recently Discover
ed in Eastern Oregon.

Pendleton, Or, Dec. l9.-Native
black marble in great quantities has
been discovered in Wallowa county
This promises to be valuable asset
of that section of the state. Pres
ent supplies of black marble come
from Belgium and Alaska and the
new find will undoubtedly supplant
the product of these two places
since freight is such big item in
the handling of this heavy stone.

TO Open Vast EMPIRE
State Will Campaign For Govern
ment Aid For Umatilla Irrigation
Project is Begun.

Portland, Dee. 19,-(Special) "A
statewide campaign will be started
by commercial organizations of Ore
gon to get recognition from the Gov
ernment to which the state is enti-
tied in the distribution Of reclama-
ton funds. This movement will be
along the line adopted by the Pen
dleton Commercial association at its
recent meeting in indorsing the west
extension of the Umatilla project.
C. C. Chapman, secretary of the
Oregon Development league, who at
tended the Pendleton meeting, be-
lieves the campaign viii succeed.
He finds the prospects exceedingly
favorable for the president to make
the allotment to Oregon for the Una
tilla project, now that the people of
Pendleton and the surrounding eoun-
try have gone on record favoring the
extension.
Much Opposition.
"There was much opposition at the
Pendleton meeting" said Secretary
Chapman, CHASED on fears that it
would work a hardship on settlers
and landowners Of Umatilla county.
In spite Of this opposition, the prop
osition was indorsed on its merits
and steps will be taken to secure rec
ognition Of claims Of settlers who
may feel themselves damaged. In
the face Of this feeling Of private
interests, Pendleton business men in
dorsed the extension, believing it
would be Of benefit TO Oregon
s'The extension will open up co.
900 acres, sustaining n population
Of from 10000 to $1,000 people. The
land will be adapted to diversified
farming. intensive agriculture and
fruit growing.
Individual Aid Asked
"Commercial organizations Of the
state viii adopt resolutions calling
for Oregon's share Of reclamation
funds and now is the time for every
one to write TO the president asking
for a fair apportionment Six other
states have had $50 per cent Of then
contributions from the sale Of lands
returned TO them for reclamation
work. while Oregon has had but Is
per cent. I cannot but think that
a popular demand upon the president
win Be If great influence in secur-
ing his favorable cousideration- y

Horse Poisoning Is the Newest Graft

tain section of the city, preferably one
in which one or more big stables are
located. His assistant is then sent out
to poison two or three horses a day
for a week
This is accomplished by giving them,
as the opportunity may occur, lump
of sugar, half an apple or some other
equine delicacy, loaded with poison.
There is no monetary gain in this,
the preliminary stage, which is mere
ly done to create a favorable state OF
affairs-that is, from the viewpoint
of the CRATER AS soon as the poison
ings begin to be talked of the fnan-
cial man gets busy. He goes to the
owner Of large stable, mentions the
numerous deaths from poison, and Of
fers protection for a sum varying from
S25 to 500 a week.
If the owner refuses to pay, coercion
is brought to bear in the shape of
few deaths among his animals. The
fact that the two grafters were never
seen together made the game a diff
cult one to stop, but the final rounding
up of the gang of prisoners should end
this peculiar graft, since the penalty
under the law is heavy one.

Texas Papas May Prevent Elopements

TORT WORTH, Tex-Elopements Of
I lovers under the legal age, twenty
one for the young man and eighteen
for the girl, will be effectually checked
in Texas by the new law adopted by
the late legislature and now effective.
Under this law no person under the
legal age can obtain a marriage IL
cense without the written consent OF
the minors parents, and the paper
must be acknowledged before notary
public like a deed. If minor has no
parents, county judges consent to
the union is necessary. If the clerk
doubts that either the prospective
bride or bridegroom has attained the
legal age, he is authorized to require
the affidavit of some other than the
contracting parties. County Clerk
Beavers has interpreted the law to
mean that the written consent of both
parents, properly executed, must be
filed, and that the consent of the ia
ther or the mother singly is not sufti-
cient.
The old law authorized the county
clerk to require the bridegroom or 9th
er person applying for marriage IL
cense to make affidavit to the ages Of

Weeping Widow Quickly Weds COnsOler

e WAINSBORO, Outstanding beside
y the open grave into which the
body Of her husband was about to be
lowered, Mrs. ]. J. Jewell was hyster-
ical with grief, and friends had to re-
strain her from throwing herself into
the grave upon the casket of the man
with whom she had lived happily for
IS years and who was the father Of
her six children.
Women tried in vain to comfort her
and the scene was an unusually pain
full one until Robert S. Mcdaniel, a
young man who recently came here
from Joplin, Mo, and who had become
very friendly with Jewell, stepped
close to the widow and whispered a
few words through her heavy veil Of
black
Whatever Mcdaniel said seemed to
give the widow courage to bear up
during the soul-trying "ashes-to-ashes,
dust-to-dust" period of the ceremony,
and she waited through those painful
moments with surprising fortitude,
considering her ritiful condition be-
fore the whispered consolation given
to her by Mcdaniel.
Turning from the grave when it was
all over, she leaned on the arm of Nc
Daniel as she walked to the gate,
where she and her children we're
helped into a carriage by kind-hearted
neighbors and were driven to the ia
therless home, a little farm for which

worked hard to pay.
Jewell died on Tuesday and the
funeral was held on Wednesday. The
next day the widow drove into SWANS
boro, accompanied by Mcdaniel, ano
went to the courthouse.
The Widow Jewell amt losing any
time in settling up the estate" re
marked those who saw her enter the
courthouse. and her prompt attention
to business caused comment among
those who had feared the day before
that she would collopse at her hus-
bands funeral.
1t wasn't the probate Judge that
Mrs. Jewell was looking for, however
but the marriage license Office. Guild
ed by Mcdaniel, she walked into the
office and gave her age as thirty-one
while he gave his as twenty-six.
Lifting her black veil so that she
could see to write her name, the
widow signed the affidavit and in a
few minutes they were married and
on their way back to the Jewell farm.

City Wages War to Rout Army of Rats

estimate IS based on an allowance OF
one ounce of food for each rodent each
meal
Dogs. ferrets and cats are used IN
the war OF determination, and although
thousands Of rats are slaughtered
daily their number continues TO IN
crease. This can easily be understood
when II is known that from one pair
Of rats 10 a nest one thousand young
surmulots will breed In year.
Back OF the yards" crowds OF boys
gather nightly to go on hunting expedi'
tions for rodents. Garbage cans are
overturned, and as the rats scamper
away dogs accompanying the boys
catch and kill them.
The boys carry sticks or clubs In
their hands and kill the rats when
they attempt TO escape. Many become
80 expert at rat catching that in after
years they embark in It as a profes-
sion.
Some of the stores In the loop dis
trict have a pack OF trained fox ter
riers to keep the rats away, but the
animal which has earned the name OF

A common method Of evasion was
for the young man, if under age, to
put slip of paper, bearing the num-

put in her shoe slip of paper with

Anew YORK.-The police here be-
~ lieve that they have finally sue
ceeded in breaking up one Of the
strangest as we'll as one of the mean
est forms of graft which the members
of the underworld, always fertile in
such schemes, have ever developed.
This form of graft in no way resem-

professional sharper, but has brought
about instead the new calling of the
professional horse-poisoner.
The methods of earning livelihood
in this manner, as revealed by the
capture of a gang of poisoners, are
simple AS practiced here, the game
has been worked by men acting in
couples, one to handle the finances, the
other to do the poisoning. The for
