Easter is time Of joy and gladness,

cording to pagan belief, Nature awoke
from the winter death sleep and ev-

Therefore there is common note of
joy in Easter celebrations, whether it
be among the coo1-headed Anglo-Sax-

or the intense, passionate Latin 20 ces.
But perhaps nowhere is the spirit
of the day more emphasized than in

Reception and Dance Tonight.
new ENEMY OF
TROUT Is FOUND

A new enemy to the trout has been
discovered in southern oregon, ac-
cording to letter just received by c..
X .Cranston, chairman of the state
fish and game commission, from l..
Alva Lewis, district warden of Ash
land. This enemy is a parasite de-
scribed by Deputy Lewis as "a long
slender worm, perhaps from four to
six inches long and about the diameter
of a large sewing needle" and pink
ish white in color.
According to the letter, the worm
attacks the trout by getting under the
skin and is usually found coiled. Its
presence is easily detected by the
lump on the fish.
Deputy Lewis writes that the only
streams in which he has discovered
fish affected by this parasite are two
tributaries of the Silvies river which
empties into Harney Lake and states
that only in warm weather have such
/ fish been found. He is of the belle
that the parasite originated in th'
shallow water of the lake or in tn
marsh lands adjoining and think
some measure should be taken to eX
terminate it.

ORIGINAL PATENT TO
LAND IN CORNERSTONE

Into the copper box buried in the
branch asylum cornerstone this af-
ternoon went one document that de-
serves to rank as the best historical
souvenir deposited. 1t was the orig
inal United States patent to the land
on which the branch asylum stands.
The land, comprising 173 acres, was
filed upon in early days by ]. H. Shar-
on, pioneer resident and father of
Councilman J. l.. Sharon. The pat
ent to the land was not issued how
ever until January 10, 1876, and the
patent bears the signature of Presi-
dent L. S. Grant. 1t was recorded in
Umatilla county on February 26, 1876,
and at that time the patentee, Mr..
Sharon, was himself the county clerk
and recorded the instrument.
The patent to the land has long
been in the possession of Mrs. Sharon,
widow of the departed pioneer, and
at the suggestion of her son she gave
the paper to the committee today for
deposit in the cornerstone box.

MUNICIPAL BAND; MOVING
PICTURES FOR HOUSTON

Houston, Texas.-Houston is to
have municipal band and a munich
pal moving picture show. Both fea-
lures will be in the pay of the city
and their services will be free to the
public at large.
May first the two innovations go
into effect. The municipal band will
consist of 80 pieces, both band and
orchestra. The band will play nightly
in the summer in the parks, while in
the winter the band and orchestra
will play free concerts in the new
100000 municipal auditorium. In the
winter two vocalists will be added to
the music equipment of the city. The
excursions and fer boosting delega.
tions to other cities when Houston
goes in quest of conventions.
The moving picture show will be ii
stalled in the auditorium. Films will
be shown Sunday afternoons ant
nights both summer and winter. TIL,
doors will be open free to everyon,
and it is believed the seating capacit,
will be generally filled. Lectures an(
other forms of entertainment will b,
provided by the city free of cost.
These features inaugurated b.

institution and in so doing make
each period of our lives perfect in its
unity and in the end making a per-
feet whole well balanced and like
this great institution, a credit to the
community and serving good pur-
pose.
Colonel ]. II. Raley, representing
Mayor w. F. Matlock, followed the
governor to the speakers stand and
expressed something of the feeling of
the city which he represents upon the
occasion of today. Secretary Olcott
spoke of the institution to be from
a business standpoint, telling what
it meant in dollars and cents, of its
completeness of equipment and of the
capacity it will have.
Treasurer Kay's Address.
In the address by State Treasurer
7. B. Kay that official dwelt upon the
history of the Eastern oregon hos
pital and particularly upon the work
of the board in working out and ad-
! opting plans for the instithtion.
The Eastern Oregon Hospital is
not being built merely for the present
but with a view to the future need;
of the institution, he said. The plan:
for the administration building tht
heating plant, kitchen, etc, are sucf
that the institution may be great!
enlarged without waste or change o
the general arrangement and withou
| spelling the symmetry of the group
II will be possible to add two wing
on each side of the structure that j
| now being erected and thereby in
crease the capacity of the institution
! to 1900 patients. At first about 50'
patients will be sent here.
Much credit for the fact that tbs
Eastern oregon hospital is being bull
along modern lines was given by Mr.
Kay to r. E L. Steiner, superintend
ent of the asylum at Salem. BY rea'
son of his experience in that worl
Mr.. Steiner was frequently consulted
by the board and his ideas as to wha
should be done were often adopted.
In the course of his talk the stat'
| treasurer pointed out that it woulC
have been physically impossible t.
erect the branch asylum on the hill
ground proposed for a building sit,
when the grounds were first purchas
ed by the Old administration. He ais
explained that it required much time
to work out the plans for the brancl
! asylum and incidentally explained til,
policy of the board in maintaining ;
state architect. That office has work
ed the saving of a large amount o
! money for the state already.
Other addresses were made by r
f L. Steiner, superintendent of tn,
state asylum. and by President J. +
Robinson of the Pendleton CONNER
cial association, while at interval
during the program the band render
ed its selections.
Reception and Dance Tonight.
Tonight, the gala day for Pendle
ton will be concluded with publi
4 reception rendered to the visiting of
ficials by the ladies of the city head
ed by the wife OF the mayor The af
fair will be held in the Eagle-Wood
man hall and everyone is invited t
attend and participate in the festivi
ties. An orchestra will be presen
and those wishing may enjoy them

COLOMSTS ARRIVING
BY THE THOUSANDS
FORT GEORGE COUNTRY IN
CENTRAL BRITISH COLUM-
BIA THE GOAL OF
HOMESEEkERS.
Owing to Ever Increasing Demand
for This Fertile Farm Land, Prices
Are Expected to Soon Soar.

Buying lands in the fertile valleys,
of Central British Columbia, near
Fort George, is not speculation.
The Grand Trunk Pacific, Canada's
great transcontinental railway, has
just built into this territory and
opened to settlement what is termed
by all who have thoroughly famil-
iarized themselves with the mild cli-
mate, rich soil and beautiful seem
cry, as THE Paradise of the Pa
cific."
British Columbia is an undevelop-
ed region affording great opportun-
tiles to those who set in on the
ground floor"
AS evidence of his great confidence
in the British Columbia country, the
Duke of Sutherland bought 10000
acres of these lands in London dur
ing the year 1910. Later he came
out with party of titled gentlemen
and purchased $4,000 additional
acres. This entire acreage is being
cut up into 40 acre farms and will be
colonized by the Duke of Sutherland,
working in conjunction with tho
North Coast Land Co.
The farms will be cleared, fenced,
barn erected and first crop put in.
The North Coast Land Co. will To-
cate about 5000 Scotchmen this
spring on these lands which are
about 20 miles S. E. of Fort George,
on the Frazer river at place called
Whites Landing. This company has
also established a large German set
tlement about miles 5. E. of Fort
! George, many sections of land hav-
I ing been sold to the latter
Where the North Coast Land Co.
can sell six or more sections to any
one colony wishing to locate in the
| Fort George country, they will as
sure the building of needed roads
through the Provincial government;
will deed enough land for school
house, church and cemetery; will pay
for one half of construction of school
house and church and help the set
tiers in every way possible.
Two years ago there were only 200
people in Fort George; at present
there are over 1000 and at the end
of this year we can reasonably ex-
pect population of over 10000,
Work is plentiful here. Land of
all kinds has doubled in price in the
last two years. What will it do in
two more years when the railroads
are all completed, when the land is
well forward in development and
homeseekers who will be arriving by
the thousands from THIS on commence
to reap their returns.
