GAME BIRDS EXHIBIT AT DISTRICT
FAIR BEST EVER SEEN ON COAST

The largest and best collection of
game birds ever seen on the Pacific
coast is now on exhibition at the dis
trict fair 1t is in charge of Gene
the man who occupies a
similar position in the bird world to
that held by Burbank in the vegeta-
BILE and is from the farm maintained
by the state fish and game commits
sion for the propagation of game
birds in Oregon. Simpson has with
him his assistant, A. O. Clark.
The exhibit includes 115 specimens
and comprises nearly every known
variety of game birds from the mon
ster wild turkeys of Virginia to the
dainty little quail and tiny Mexican
white winged dove.
The China pheasant and its near
relatives comprise large part of the
exhibit. This class includes the Chi
Neck the English Ring Neck, the
Mongolian, the Japanese. the White
China, and the Pied pheasant
Though the term China pheasant
is commonly applied to nearly all of
these, the bird that is so common and
at the same time so popular in the
Willamette valley and which is now
being introduced into eastern Ore
gon in large numbers is the China
Ring Neck. This is the bird which
was brought to Oregon about %
years ago by the late Judge o. N.
Denny and for many years was
known as the Denny pheas-
ant for this reason. Many declare
it to be the peer of all game birds.
The English Black neck pheasant,
according to Mr.. Simpson, is the old
original English game bird. 1t was
crossed with the China Ring Neck
pheasant to produce the English
Ring Neck which is now the leading
game bird of England, the original
Black Neck having become very
scarce.
The Mongolian is the largest and
by far the widest bird of the entire
class. The two specimen on exhibit
here are in constant motion while
two others hanged themselves while
being brought from the state game

Far greater than the crowds which
two previous Round-ups is that which
has assembled here today for the
commencement Of the third annual
carnival of frontier excitement. Pour
ing into the city on regular and spec
ial trains, in autos, wagons and every
type of vehicle by tens, hundreds and
thousands. the congregation of pleas
ure seekers has already lost the pro-
portions OF a crowd and assumed those
of Il countless multitude.
When the thousands who are wait
ing for the second and third days OF
the celebration have arrived, Pen
dleton will without question be en-
tertaining six or eight times the num-
ber OF her population, probably a rec
ord which no other city in the United
States has ever established.
Though many hundreds have been
here since the first Of the week, the
first rush did not not come until last
evening when the regular trains,
twice their ordinary size, rolled into
the depot an hour late crowded to
the vestibules. Fifteen cars were at
tached to No Is from Portland while
just preceding 1t was No. 2, the local,
which carried eleven cars densely
packed. The evening train from Spo-
kane was nine cars i'm length and
every one was crowded to the last
inch. Hundreds of people gathered
TO meet these trains, among the crowd
being many mounted cowboys who
gave the incoming visitors a real wild
west reception.
This morning No. 6 from Portland
carried thirteen cars and was followed
in by two specials containing twenty
five cars. At IL o'clock this morn
ing a special excursion train arrived
over the n. p. from Kennewick and
the crowd was swelled by several
hundred enthusiastic Washingtonians.
All morning the streets were so
packed that 1t was almost impossible
to walk down them but as the noon
hour approached, many began their
march to the park and lined w. in
waiting for the opening Of the sale of
the bleacher seats.
1t is n good natured, happy crowd
that is filling Pendleton and, though
many are having difficulty in finding
rooms or in crowdlng into eating pla-
ces, they accept the situation as n
matter of course and with the real
''let er buck" spirit.
Among the thousands gathered here
are many of the prominent residents
of cities all over the vest and they
are taking their chances with the
most humble visitor from the back
woods. Tomorrow Governor Oswald
West, Secretary of State Ben w. Oh

! tors were in their places. awaiting
the beginning of the performance. For
month entrants and special per-
formers daily reached the city. For
a week they practiced in the try-outs.
Today they are giving a hoarsely ap-
preciative multitude a reproduction
of the wild and woolly west of half
century ago and of the daily dash
and daring that is still the life of
many sections.
Led by the Pendleton mounted cow
boy band, an army of COWBOYS and
cowgirls opened the great western
fantasy with a reckless dash into the
arena and the overwhelming thunder
of hoofbeats of their cowponies. 1t
was the same happy collection of the
best riders of the west that met the
trains and welcomed and escorted the
arriving thousands to the main sec
ton of the city. To the visitor the
show was under way from the time he
left the railroad car and it has and
will continue. with a kaleidoscope ef-
feet, until the great curtain of dark
ness rings down on a gorgeous, pic
turesque scene, Saturday night.
The cowpuncher, fresh from the
range, sunburned, healthy, laughing
and bedcked in all the gorgeous raj
ment that he could pile on before
leaving the bunkhouse; the cowgirl
in all her beauty garbed in becom-
the costume of fashions characters
tic of the prairie and mountain
queen; all taking their chances with
the most visions range rovers that
could be gathered from half dozen
states.
To the vast crowd. the fancy rop-
ing and riding is great entertainment,
greatly. added to by a visit to the In
dian village. the dances and other
performances of the red folk. The
steer roping is exciting; the cowboys
and cowgirls relay. pony express and
running races are thrilling: the steer
bulldogging is enhancing, while the
broncho busting and Wild horse rae.
ing are beyond description and cause
one to wonder if it is not a dream
of the impossible.
SO numerous are the contestants in
the various events-nearly one hun
dred fifty have entered-that 1t will
be impossible to allow all to compete
during the regular performing period
and the management has arranged
special contests for tomorrow morn
ing in the bucking, wild horse and
roping contests.
Tomorrow the show will be better
than today and Saturday it will be still
better. The crowd will be increased
each day and there will be no limit

POLICE ABLE TO HANDLE CROWDS

Notwithstanding the fact of the
presence of a large number of
crooks and other bad characters the
city was unusually peaceful and or
derly last night. Not a burglary had
been reported at either the office of
the chief of police rthe sheriff up
to 10 o'clock this morning and the
arrests during the night were mainly
for petty offences.
There are now 6S special policemen
on duty and two special patrolmen
have been assigned to each of the
five residence districts at night.
These men are assisting materially in
putting an end to burglaries, while
another influence that helps the sit
uation is the work of special railroad
and outside detectives who are here
with a sharp eye out for crooks and
other offenders.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1912-09-26

or the twelve arrests last night
most of them were for drunkenness
and nine cases were disposed of with
ease this morning. The remaining
three demanded trials. Claud Walk
er, accused of slashing a colored por-
ter at the Q. X. barber shop was one
of those, as was also Ray Shafer
colored, accused of immoral conduct
The special patrolmen will be kept
at work in the residence districts all
through the remainder of the week
and longer If necessary so as to pro-
tect the homes of the city as much
as possible. A large force of street
patrolmen will preserve order in the
business sections, while each saloon Is
also provided with an officer to han
die any disturbances that may arise
in such places.
