Court Opens; Three Change Pleas.

Circuit court which convened this
morning will be made still shorter by
reason of the action of James Nor
gan, Patrick King and George Gard
ner in changing their pleas from not
guilty to guilty. Morgan, who is the
man who stole the overcoats at the
democratic banquet, pleaded guilty
to simple larceny and drew a sentence
of 500 fine or fifty days in the oun
ty Jail. King and Gardner, who stole
a suitcase from a room in the PEN
land lodging house, made similar pleas
and will receive sentences in the NOR
ming. The case of Burt Pixler, charg-
ed with the larceny of horses from the
Umatilla reservation, was set for this
morning but the panel was exhausted
in the effort to secure a jury and a
venire to secure four more has been
issued which has delayed the proceed
ings until tomorrow morning.

WHITMAN MASSACRE
IN GRAND OPERA
STAGING EQUIPMENT is
GATHERED IN PENDLETON
Costumes for 'Narcissa," First North
G early Day Classic. Selected
From Moorhouse Collcction-To BE
Staged In seattle.


The first grand opera built about
northwest history has been complet-
ed and will be deliberately staged in
Seattle at the Moore theater on the
22d, Esd and 24th of this month un-
der the management of John Cort, the
well known theatrical magnate. The
title of the opera is "Narcissa," and
it tells in beautiful music the tragic
story of Marcus and Narcissa Whit
man. The book was written by Mrs.
Sara Pratt Carr and the music by her
daughter, Mary Carr Moore.
a copy of the opsa has just been
received by Major Lee Moorhouse in
recognition of his invaluable assist
ance to the authors and last night
Miss Eleanor Vincent played over the
score to a small audience at the
Moorhouse home and all characterize
the music as of exceptional beauty.
Major Moorhouse is providing the
costumes for the principal characters
in the opera from his famous collec-
ton of Indian curios and Mrs. Moor
house will leave in a few days with
these costumes and will remain to
witness the opera.
In the book for the piece, Mrs
Carr has followed history closely. for
the story of the Whitmans needs no
embellishments from the Imagination
to make it one of the most romantic
and heroic in all history. She COM
mences with the call which the north
west Indians sent east for some one
to teach them the knowledge of the
white mans God, and of the response
of Marcus Whitman, the young doc
tor-minister. She weaves in the de-
votion which made the beautiful Mar
cissa leave home and friends, to wed
her lover and go with him into the
wilds of an unknown land. She lays
one scene at Old Fort Vancouver and
introduces the grand old man, DIR.
John Mclaughlin, and his beautiful
daughter, Eloise. She describes the
life at the mission at Waiilatpu neal
the present city of Walla Wailla and
of the attachment of Chief Pio-pio-
mox-mox to the white missionaries,
and Whitman's heroic and historic
ride across the continent in the dead
of winter to save the northwest to

That is putting the president down

Quay and Tweed and Croker and
Arnold and Burr. Unfortunately
American history furnishes types in
plenty OF men strong in mind but
weak in morals, of men stupid end

them is such a humiliating character

CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS.

It having been determined by Gov
ernor Wilson and his campaign man.
ayers that no contributions are to be
accepted from corporations for the
Democratic Presidential campaign,
the only recourse of the management
will be popular subscriptions to the
fund; practically the same plan as
was adopted four years ago, and
which proved very effective.
This paper has been asked to In
yite the cooperation of all Demo
Gratis and others who may feel dn-
chned, in raising the quota for the
campaign. It is the peoples contest
against The Interests" The con-
test is. therefore, an unequal one
from a financial standpoint.
Governor Wilson is insisting on
strict economy in his campaign, and
that business methods be employed,
and promises that every rude of busi.
ness economy will be observed in
the matter of expenses.
If every Democrat and friend of
the cause would contribute the sum
OF 81 it would mean that nearly four
times as much money as necessary
would be raised. However, as many
will not realize the Importance of the
undertaking, it will be necessary for
those who can do so to contribute
more literally.
This paper will open a public con.
tribution fund for the National Com
mittee, and will publish the name:
and amounts contributed unless re-
quested net to do so, and will
forward the amount received to the
finance committee designated. The
fullest possible publicity is the rule
adopted by the Management of the
national campaign with the hearty ar
proval of Governor Wilson. It is be-
lieved that with complete publicity
and strict business methods the entire
satisfaction of every contributor wild
be secured.

THE HORSE EPIDEMIC
Sun Killing Many Valuable Horses
in This County.

Reports from all over the county
indicate that conditions are not great

IS that has attacked and killed SO
Nany thousands TO horses, although
in this locality it seems that, it is
decreasing somewhat, not quite SO
many cases having been reported the
&st few days.
Cheney & Russell are having more
calls than they can answer and are
. working day and night. Week be.
lore last they stopped answering
cabs, and with DR.. Marion Russell
and DR.. Chas. W. Hooper, a medical
Student, held several autopsies and
demonstrated to their satisfaction
that the disease was not cerebro-spi.
nal meningitis, but, from repeated
sabratory tests, decided that. it was
a blood disease, namely, a parasite
IN the blood which tore to pieces and
destroyed the red corpuscles. After
coming to this conclusion they outlin
ed a treatment which they have since
used with fair degree of success,
curing majority of the cases taken
under treatment, especially when ia
Ken in the first stages. They also
prepared a capsule which they are
giving to we'll horses to prevent
them from taking the disease. So
Tar, none of the horses that have
been given the capsules have taken

whether or not this is efficacious.
Several of the noted veterinarians
who have been conducting series Of
experiments at Dodge City We're

epidemic. They still cling to the be-
lief that it is spinal meningitis, al,

that theory for three weeks and
were no farther along than when
q they started.
A report from Ness City, dated

demic is quite calamity, especial
~ to farmers in western Kansas, who
are not fixed, financially, to stand

calamity than any crop failure of
previous seasons, as it will curtail
the putting in of crops. 1t is hoped
