Meighan's deep basso and Richard
Mayberry's clear tenor were heard in
numbers of unusual merit
Sandwiched in between these mu-
sical numbers was a series of rapid
fire jokes which made much humor
for the audience at the expense of
a few well known personages.
The olio was a fitting counterpart
for the initial half of the evenings
program. l.. CherrIer opened this
second canto with a few selections in
French-Canadian dialect which were
excellent and brought him back sew
eral times. Jack Urquhart and
Clarence Moller put on negro skit
entitled "The Bungling Servant"
which was surprise and a delight
to the rowd. Then the ever-appre-
ciated Commercial Club Quartet

Motor Car Conductor Makes
Grewsome Discovery From
Speeding Car.
MURDER OR ACCIDENT?
Bo!y Found at Base of Cliff Near
Barnhart and Investigation Reveals
Deep Cash Oh Head-COroner In
vestigating

With a deep cash in one side of
the head. the body of an unidentified
man was discovered this morning
near Barnhart by Conductor Cherry
of the Umatilla-Pendleton motor car
and evidences indicate either a MUIR
der or a tragic accident, more prob
ably the latter Coroner Folsom was
notified of the discovery and left
about noon in a buggy to secure the
body.
While the motor car was speeding
toward this city shortly before II
O'Clock and when about a mile this
side of Barnhart, Conductor Cherry
noticed the figure of PROSTATE man
at the foot of a high bluff near where
the old line ran. At first he gave no
thought to the matter, but finally
something about the posture of the
figure moved him to stop his car and
investigate. Walking over to the spot
he found that the man was dead and
the cash in the head indicated to him
that death had resulted from violent
blow.
Does Not Believe It's Murder.
ed to believe the man was victim of
a murder but thinks rather that he
either fell over the bluff in the dark
or had gone to sleep at the foot of the
buff and had been struck in the head
by a rock dislodged by the violent
wind of last night The cold embers
of a campfire about four feet from
the body makes the last explanation
more tenable
The conductor made no investiga-
ton to ascertain the identity of the
dead man, but states that his clothes
would indicate he was laborer
Leaving the body just as he found it,
he ran his car on until he came to
house where he stopped to send
man back to remain with the body
until the authorities could arrive.
Reaching this city, he notified Coro-
ner Ralph Folsom and that official
left Immediately for the scene of the
tragedy.
