MT. KATMAI is
BELCHING FIRE

Cordova, Alaska, Oct. 26.-Katmai
volcano, which caused great damage
on the Alaska peninsula and adjacent
islands last June, is said to be in vi
olent eruption again, the mail steam
er Dora having reported by wireless
that she is anchored off Whale Is
land, unable to proceed further west
ward on her voyage to Dutch Har-
Dor because of darkness caused by
falling volcanic ashes.
The Dora left Seward on her
monthly trip to the Aleutian Islands
last Monday and ran into the pail of
smoke at Whale Island, situated be-
tween Afognak Island and Kodiak Is
land, both of which were covered by
a thick layer of ash in previous erup-
ton. The navl collier, Nero, is at
Kodiak. erecting a new wireless sta
ton to replace the one destroyed at
the time of the June eruption of
Mount Katmai, and efforts are being
made to communicate with her by
wireless to ascertain conditions there.
The revenue cutter Manning was
at Kadiak during the eruption last
summer ana illoIueu piotSSNioh w
the people who were driven from their
home by the ashes and smoke. The
presence of the Nero at this time is
reassuring, as the big collier can care
for the people If assistance is needed,
No reports have been received from
other points regarding the outbreak
of Katmai, and f. b. Tracy, general
agent of the Alaska Steamship COM
pany, who received the report from
the Dora has asked for further par
ticulars.
A few days ago the steamship Vic
toria, bound from Seattle to Nome
reported by wireless that she passed
through quantity of pumice stone
floating on the water in the vicinity
of Unimak Pass.

him to the extent of subscribing per-
sonally to retain him there.
A year ago last February he was
called to the secretaryship of the
Pendleton Commercial association
when the members of the organization
decided that a salaried officer was a
necessity. He commenced upon his
duties the following June and has held
the position ever since.
During his incumbency. the men,
bership of the association has grown
by leaps and bounds, having more
than doubled itself and the club has
taken prominent position in the
commercial world, not only of the
city, but of eastern Oregon and the
entire state. He has been active and
energetic in the fulfillment of his
duties, striving always for the up
building of the city and county. His
departure from his position is en-
tlrely of his own volition and the
news of his resignation is being heard
with many expressions of regret.
Not only will he be missed by the
organizations which he served Off
cially, but his leaving will be felt by
the social and musical world of the
community as we'll. Being a musical
genius and a born entertainer, he Is
universal favorite and his services
have been in constant demand.
Though he had received many flat
tering offers to fill vaudeville en-
gagements with his ''pianology" stunts
he steadfastly refused to become a
professional entertainer. However,
he feels that in accepting the offer to
direct and stage minstrel shows for
the various Elks lodges of the coun-
try, he is taking a position which will
exercise his peculiar talents without
making him a member of the actor
world. He has had experience In the
work he is about to take up, having
directed the efforts of the local Elks
last year when they staged the best
minstrel show of their history.

KEEFE RESIGNS SECRETARYSHIP OF .
LOCAL COMMERCIAL ASSOCIATION

Pendleton's Commercial association
is today fithout a secretary, j. E.
Keefe, Jr., who has occupied that po
sition for the past year and a half
having rendered his resignation last
evening to President j. f. Robinson
in order to accept a more lucrative
position as musical director for Mil
Ter & Draper, official Elks' minstrel
show men. Mr.. Keefe also holds the
secretaryship of the Roundup asso-
citation and the Western Tri-State
league, but, inasmuch as the regular
election of these organizations occur
within the near future, his resignation
from these positions will be automat-
ic.
The action of the secretary came
wholly unexpected to the members
and board of managers of the Com
mercial association and was almost
a surprise to Mr.. Keefe himself, so
unprecedented was 1t. on Wednes-
day he received from Miller & Draper
most munificent offer for his SER
vices as musical director, the offer
demanding an immediate acceptance
or rejection. Though he had become
attached to Pendleton and was 10th
to give up his work here, after two
days of deliberation. he finally came
to the conclusion that the opportu-
nifty presented him could not be ig-
nored and made his decision accord
ingly. His acceptance of the offer
carries with 1t promise to report
at San Antonio Texas, on Nov. 3, so
that he will be forced to leave PEN
dleton during the next week.
Mr.. Keefs has been resident of
Umatilla county for more than four
years, having taught in the Weston
normal school during the last year
of its existence and two years sub
sequent to that having acted as prin-
cipal of the Weston high school at a
salary greater than that offered by
any school its size in the northwest,

PENDLETON HIGH
LOSES FIRST GAME
TO WALLA WALLA

Pendleton high school suffered
defeat in its first football game Of
the season yesterday in Walla Walla
when, by pushing over one touch
down. the high school team of the
Garden City succeeded in winning a
10 game. According to reports, the
teams were evenly matched and the
contest hard one. In the last quar-
ter the local boys carried the ball to
the one yard only to lose 1t on downs.
In speaking of the contest, the Wal
la Walla Union this morning had the
following to say in part:
The finish of the game brought out
some sensational playing. With the
game not decided Pendleton made a
strong bid when they marched down
the field on a series of end runs and
forward passes and blocked punt,
and planted the pigskin on Walla
Walla's six yard line. With four
downs to score touchdown, the ex-
citement was intense. On the first
down they failed to penetrate the
white and blue line, but Walla Walla
was penalized for offside play, which
put the oval on the one yard line.
Pendleton, was unable to gain a yard
however, and the ball went to the To-
Gals. Walla Walla then marched
straight down the gridiron by what
looked to be certain touchdown
Darkness had settled over the field

Wonderful indeed are the changes
wrought by time In Umatilla county
as found by Henry F.. Albee, early
day stockman who left here "a years
ago and who visited here yesterday
When he left this part of the world
in 1878. 1t was a wild, unsettled coun-
try not yet entirely won from the In
dians and he came back to find It q
peaceful, prosperous land of homes.
With his brother, Robert, Mr.. AL
bee came to Umatilla county in 1870
and engaged in the stock business in
the south end of the county, the
present town OF Albee deriving its
name from them. In recalling those
early days this morning just before
the departure of his train, the old pio-
neer recounted stirring adventures
with the Indians, his partner at one
time being killed by renegade red
skins and he himself escaping a like
fate only because, as he put 1t, my
time hadn't come"
Mr.. Albee has been living In Cali
fornia since he left Umatilla county,
his present home being in Sacrament
to. Last January he finished a two
term service in Placer county as treas
urer and is now retired from active
life.
While here yesterday he was
guest at the home of Charles Myers,
one of the few men who remember
him from his residence here. He took
the local this morning for Portland
from where he will entrain for his
home.

New YORK, Oct. 26.-That the
charges over which the Michigan suit
was filed constituted the "culmination
of an insidious campaign slander
against Theodore Roosevelt" was the
declaration of the progressive nation
al committee in a statement last
night.
Knowing the cruel falsity of this
charge" the statement says, chose
that have been interested in circulat-
ing 1t have proceeded under cover and
in the dark. No respectable person
so far as he is known to Roosevelt
and his friends, has dared to make
this charge in an open and respon-
sible way until Mr.. Newett made it in
his newspaper.
"On Monday, October IA, the day
he was shot, Mr.. Roosevelt was in
Chicago preparing to go to Milwau-
kee, when a copy of the paper was
put into his hands. Upon reading
the article Mr.. Roosevelt gave direc-
tions to proceed against Mr.. Newett
at once. Mr.. Roosevelt, however, in
taking this action is not seeking to re-
cover money damages and the am
cunt stated in this suit is therefore
fixed at a nominal sum-"
The statement adds that the action
was begun because through the pub
lication in question, "Mr. Newett has
furnished the first opportunity that
Mr.. Roosevelt or his friends have
been able to find" for the prompt and
authoritative disproof of the charges.

CHICKENS

Gap worms vary in length and
are provided with six larced-like
teeth. The female is about one
inch long, while the male IS
about one-third inch long. Dur
ing the act of population these
worms become fused together,
thus giving the worms fork
like appearance.
Upon the death OF the adult
worm, the eggs are liberated on
the ground where the chick
usually dies or is thrown by the
caretaker.
In the spring of the year these
eggs hatch into minute hair-like
worms and the young chick picks
them up either in food or water.
From here the little worms bore
through the tissue of the intes-
tines and thence to the windpipe.
The feed should be mixed as
usual and then add three drops
of creolin to every pound of food.
Feed this once a day.

oesths,s Birthday.

Al amusing story, taken from BODIES
book ON Goethe. appears in a Paris
contemporary. In August, 1918, Goe-
tho went to Carlsbad for the cure, and
placed himself under the care Of DR..
Rehbein. One morning when he rose
he requested Charles, his domestic. to
place bottle of red wine and glass
in each Of the two windows in the
room.
Then the poet walked round and
round the apartment, stopping at each
window to drink a glass Of wine.
When he had nearly emptied the bot.
ties the doctor arrived. "Ah," said
Goethe, "you are come. Do you know
1t Is my birthday" NO" said the
doctor, 1T is not your birthday. 1t
falls tomorrow"
Only the production Of the almanac
could convince Goethe that he was a
day out in his reckoning. When he
discovered his mistake he gave vent
to strong expression which Scott
puts in the mouth of Capt. Manly
Ewart, and, after long pause, turn
ing to the doctor, said: Then l have
got drunk for nothing"
