Canoes are also sold in knock-down con-

them. The prices have now come within
the reach of any one who really desires
to own canoe. Many of the most de-

the newer features in modern canoe
building is an air chamber al each end.

impossible for the vessel to sink, even

canoeists consider it still greater econ

cushions which may be used as canoe

Many Races Are Held
At the Annual Meet.

contests but the association has abso-
lutely set its face against the use of
money i'm such affairs. The events of
the meet are conducted solely for the
pleasure of the sport and no member
who has raced for money or who has
contested with a professional for a prize

with canoe makers. The modern canoe
may be built of any material from steel

LADY RIDER IS HERE FOR ROUND-U

Under contract to do their special
ties at the Roundup September 26,
81 and 2S, Tillie Baldwin, worlds
champion lady rider, and her hus-
band, Johnny Baldwin, one of the
best known of the professional cow
boy trick riders, arrived in Pendleton
yesterday afternoon from Hoboken,
n. j.. and will remain here until the
frontier exhibition is over. Following
the Roundup. Mr.. Baldwin will leave
for Redmond to purchase horses to
take east, and his wife will leave for
her old home in Sweden to spend the
winter.
Neither one of the couple need an
introduction to the people familiar
with the wild west show world.
Though they are young and have been
in the business but a few years, both
have risen in their work until it is
generally recognized that they are
without peers for all-around ability
Both ride bucking bronchos, both are
trick and fancy riders and both are
proficient as pony express and relay
race riders.
Tillie Baldwin, contrary to the nat.
ural opinion, is not a girl of the west
neither is she a girl of the east. II
fact she is not a native American a
all. but claims Sweden as her father
land. When she came to New Yorl
several years ago. she knew as little
about horses as does the average eff
fete eastern girl. but when she mar
ried Johnny Baldwin, of San Antonio

fancy riding stunts in New Yorl
parks, she did not lose much time !

wager $4,000 that in all-around abil-
ity she is superior to any woman in

Golden Alleged to Have Imbibed
Freely and to Have Offered to
Sell Pendleton.WaIIa WaIIa Game.
HIS SALARY IS RAISED
President Sweet Adds $25 a Month
i'm Face OF Impending Charges
Against GoIden-ActiOn Regarded
as Bid for Close Decisions for Boise
Team-Fans Here Indignant.

Adding insult to injury and fur
ther incensing local baseball fans.
President w. n. sweet of the Western
Tri-state league has raised the salary
of Umpire Golden against whom SER
ious charges were filed yesterday by
Manager Jesse T. Garrett of the PEN
dleton team. Secretary Keefe of this
city has just been notified OF the raise
in salary which, according to the pres
idents message, took effect at the
commencement of the final series.
The increase bestowed upon the ar
bitter would amount to $25 per month.
Local fans, when they learned OF
the salary increase for an umpire,
whom they firmly believe to be in
competent and morally crooked and
against whom they protested as an
official in the final and cricial series,
were aroused to high pitch of in
dignation. Knowing from Golden's
actions and statements while here
that he is not above favoring home
team and that he is very susceptible
to secret influences, they regard the
action of Sweet in the face of Pen
dletons protest, as a bid for the ben
eft of close decisions for the Boise
team.
Substantiating the charges Of
drunkenness, incompetency and crook
edness which Garrett filed against
Golden, a number of local fans this
afternoon in the office of Attorney
Roy Raley made sworn affidavits to
the effect that Umpire Golden, while
here during the Pendleton, Walla
! Walla series was drunk on two diff
/ ferent nights, offered for ten dollars
/ to assist the Pendleton team win
against the Bears, declared in so many
words that he was a home team UNI
pire and was trying to give Pendle-
/ ton the best of his decisions, offered
| to face the grandstand and drink
/ bottle of beer at the end of the fifth
/ inning of the game of August and
was only deferred through fear of
newspaper publicity, admitted that he
made several decisions that were
wrong called strikes thrown by
Pitcher Tiny Leonard balls in order
/ to get that twirler mad so that he
could fine him and chase him from
| the game and did and said much else
| that reflected upon his character and
his qualifications for the position he
held.
In addition to these affidavits Gar
rett will be backed by the testimony
of some of his players who have evil
dence equally as damaging against
| Golden.
According to the affidavits made
today, it is apparent that Golden be-
lieved that the league would dissolve
before the end of the season and was
attempting to make a good fellow
of himself and at the same time line
his pocket book. Afer they had
learned his calibre. some of the fans
led him on to commit himself defi-
nitely and, under the impression that
he was installing himself in their
good graces when as a matter of fact
he was forfeiting what little respect
they had for him. Umpire Golden
evidently played into their hands and
branded himself as a man devoid of
honor.

turned Against Him.
CONSPIRACY IS ALLEGED

Lawrence Strikers-WOod is Re-
leased on bail-Denies Charges.

Boston, Mass, Aug. 3O.-Wm.
Wood, president of the American
Woolen company, the largest textile
concern In the country, surrendered
today to District Attorney Pelletier
on an Indictment charging conspiracy.
The indictment charges that Wood
and other textile officials caused dy-
Mantle to be placed in homes of strik-
ing foreigners in Lawrence for the
purpose of injuring the strike of the
operatives there. Wood was arraign-
ed and released on $1,000 bail.
Wood went to police headquarters
accompanied by Congressman Samuel
Powers, who probably will act as his
counsel District Attorney Pelletier
says he has a good case against Wood,
A number of Lawrence strikers were
arrested during the trouble when dy-
Mantle was found in their homes.
They asserted the dynamite was plac-
ed there by representatives OF the
millowners. This charge was born
out when James Breen was recently
convicted of planting dynamite given
him by Ernest Pittman, member of
the firm of w. w. Pittman and
company, one OF the largest textile
construction mills in the country.
An indictment was returned against
Pittman, who afterwards committed
suicide.
Wood is undeniably the biggest
man in the wooden industry He Is
president and also treasurer of the
Providence Worsted Mills of Rhode
Island. He holds the dictatorship of
the Merchants National Bank and the
Pierce Manufacturing Co, of New
Bedford. Mass.
Woods salary exceeds that OF the
president of the United States, being
in excess OF 100000 a year. He is
a multimillionaire and is said to have
directed the fight the mill operators
waged against the operatives.
Woods rise was meteoric. He is
the son of a Portuguese immigrant
and began work in the mills for 75
cents a day.
4 third man said to have been in
dicted with Wood is reported to be
president of another big New Eng
land mill.
Following his release on bail, Wood
said: "I am greatly surprised at the
action of the grand jury. have nc
connection with the so-called plot
This will be fully established at the
proper time"
On the way to the courtroom Wood
stopped and posed for photographers
He seemed much amused throughout
the proceedings. He deposited $4,000
bail money from a huge roll of bills
Wood asked to be arraigned immedi-
ately He was told he would have
to wait till others named in the In
dictment are ready to plead.
