Same Ma. Giving This Testimony
Knew of No Money Being Received
by IaWmal<er.

Chicago, Nov. 4.-Continu'ng his
testimony before the Lorlmer inves-
tigating committee, state Representa-
tive Lee O'Nein Brown admitted to-
day that United States Senator Lori

yesterday.
He declared that Senator Lorimer
had contributed several times to his

TIMES ASST.
PUB. ON PANEL
Judge BordwelI Declares
Connections Alone Will
Not Disqualify Him.
Is PROSECUTION WITNESS
Believed Last Seat in Mcnamara Jury
Box viii be Occupied During Mon
days Session and Pcrcmptory Chal-
lengcs VIII Begin.

Hall of Records. Los. Angeles, Cal,
Nov. 4.--Harry Chandler, son-in-law
of General Otis. owner and publisher
of the Los Angeles Times-of which
the Mcnamara brothers are charged
with having destroyed-and himself
assistant publisher of the Times, will
in all probability be compelled to sub
NIT to interrogation regarding his
qualifications as a venlreman in the
Mcnamara case.
When he appeared late yesterday
afternoon among the veniremen
Judge Bordwell refused to dismiss
him because of the fact that he is
under subpoena of the prosecution
Judge Bordwell contended that only
4 persons qualifications are to be
considered in select ing the jury.
The court did however excuse
Chandler until next Wednesday, when
it is likely that he will have a valid
excuse for dismissal.
Twenty veniremen Of the panel of
forty last summoned have qualified
for candidacy as jurymen when the
trial resumes Monday.
1t is believed that the twelfth We
nireman will have found a place in
the jury box Monday, when it is ex-
pected that Clarence DarrOw, attor-
ney for the defense, will ask permis
sion OF the court to further question
Venireman Mckee on evidence that
has been secured since their first
challenge was overruled by Judge
Bordwen.
Judging from their credentials, the
court will not grant the request and
then the peremptory challenges will
begin, to eliminate objectional men
from the jury box.

the only one who can make a change

KING DAREDEVIL ENGINEER
Contributes Chapter to Railroad His
tory by Guiding Train Down Noun
tain Side at Rate of Mile and Half
Per Minute TO Avoid Wreck.

Capt. II. NJ. St. Cyr, the most reck-
less daredevil engineer that ever op-
ened a throttle and who is known in
Pendleton by all old timers, is back
in the city after an absence of nine
teen years during which time his
career has been less spectacular than
in the days when he startled the
world in eastern oregon by his speed
mania. HIS appearance is but little
changed since those pioneer days, his
ha'r is just as long and black. his
moustachios and goatee just as fierce,
his eye just as keen and 1t doesn't
take much of a student Of character
to read in him a man of iron nerves
and indomtable courage
Since leaving Pendleton in 1892,
Capt. St Cyr has been in all parts of
the world adding chapters to his ad-
venturous h story He has made and
lost two fortunes in the mining busi-
ness and declares he will make an
other before he takes his farewell
journey to the promised land"
His Wild Ride Remembered.
st. Cyr is best remembered here for
the wild ride he made in an engine
down the mountain from Kamela to
prevent a terrible collision.
1t was in 1892 that he helped pull
a manifest train from this city to Ka
mela. A special with Conductor
Balyntine and Engineer Moore in
charge, had orders to meet another
train at Hilgard, twelve miles away.
The other train was then on its way
west with orders to meet the special
at Kamela. That constituted what
railroad men call a lap order and
dread as much as anything in the
world. In other words, both trains
had passed the last stations where
they could be stopped and were rush
ing headlong into each Other.

The Spirit that Helps a Town.

Last week the committee in
charge of the Fraternal Picnic and
Carnival, decided hat one bridge
across the creek at the city park
was inadequate for the crowds
that will fill the grounds on the
date set for the big doings, and
made ments to put in Two
more foot bridges. The material
was secured and the trusses were
made by a local carpenter. The
work of putting the bridges in
place was done by less than a doz-
en- men who believe in helping the
town in any way they can. This
was one of the ways; the bridges
we're a necessity and there was not
enough money to hire them put
ill.,, so they did the work for moth
ing. After everything is said and
done there will be some who will
not be pleased. Give the commit
tee a boost; tell them they are
doing good work, for they are.
The little words of cheer that they
deserve will Offset any amount Of
dissatisfaction and grumbling done
by some who are never satisfied
with any public work. The
bridges are solid and perfectly
safe. Use them.

Land Office Notes.

The local land office does not
expect the abandoned Fort Mo-
brara military reservation to be
opened to settlement before the
spring or summer of 1912. The
President has signed an order
turning the land, with the excep-
ton of the tract embraced in the
state experimental farm, over to
the Secretary of the Interior for
disposition under the law now ex-
listing, or under new provisions as
Congress may enact. The law
now provides for the sale of land
in such reservations, at public sale
for cash, after the land has been
appraised; but Judge Kinkaid ad-
vises the register of the local Office
that he intends to introduce a bill
providing for the opening of the
reservation under the homestead
laws, and the secretary will doubt
less withhold the opening until
the regular session of Congress
next winter, the opening cannot
occur for many months.
Congress has passed an act,
which it is supposed has now been
signed by the President, giving
settlers within this land district a
leave of absence from their home
steads until April Is, 1912. The
local officers will not be acquainted
with the exact forms of the acs un-
til they receive copies of the act
from the general land office. One
fact, however, may as we'll be i'm.
pressed at once upon the minds OF
all persons who intend to take adj
vantage of the act, and that is that
the time during which the settler
is absent from the present time un-
til the 18th of next April must be
made up before final proof can be
offered. In other words, a settler
who is absent during the period
covered by this act is delaying his
final proof just that much longer.

Bad Omaha
Omaha Sica

Bad Omaha, one Of the best
known of the present gene ration of
Sioux Indians passed from this life
Monday, August IA, at II o'clock
noon at his home near ST. Francis
Mission on Rosebud reservatio n.
In the passing away of Bad Gu aha,
the Sioux Indians have lost one of
their most beloved. He vas un-
firing in his efforts to raise his
people to a higher plane of c%iviliza-
ton. His work in that respect was
full of zeal and energy, yet with
unostentation. He was lovable and
honest, full of sympathy and com
passion for his fellow man. He
early embraced the Catholic faith,
and was a devout attendant of that
church up to the time of his death,
his purity was marked and sincere.
Many Indians from various sections
| of the reservation we're in attend
ance to pay their respects to all
that remained of this noble Indian
and to extend to the sorrowlng
widow their tender and sincere
sympathy.
Tie services were held at st.
Francis and were conducted by the
Reverend Father Digman, Father
Superior, after which the remains
we're laid to rest in the beautiful
cemetery connected with the Mis-
sion. The deceased was "a years
