known throughout the country as the
boys friend, and is Familiarity ad-
dressed as "Gunk" He always has

is the kind of boy that he likes to en-
roll in his league and decorate with

WESTERN CANADA MAKING RE.
MARKABLE PROGRESS.

Settlers from the United Kingdom
and other countries of Europe landed
in Winnipeg last week at the rate Of
one thousand a day. The predicted
boom in the populating of the prairie
provinces this spring has material
lied, as it did last year, and today the
busiest city in America is probably
the Manitoba metropolis.
The sturdy nations Of Europe are
all contributing to the rapid growth
Of Canada West. Two of the largest
contingents reaching Winnipeg last
week were from Germany and Scan
dinavia.
The British Isles are sending out
larger contingents than ever before.
The old land newspapers are filled
with accounts of send-offs and fare
wells being given to popular towns
folk on the eve of departure for Can
ada.
Numerous editorials record the SEN
timents, bordering on despair of the
Britons who see their towns and vii
lagos desolated by the desertion Of
favorite sons and daughters. We can
sympathize with those left behind
while felicitating the young people
who have their own way to make in
the world on their new opportunities
in the country of mammoth crops.
Scotland lost 5000 of her best
blood and Drawn in a single week this
month. No wonder the young, aspir-
ing Scots take so quickly to Canada.
They have been reading Of the tri-
umphs and wonder working of Scot
fish pioneers in the Dominion ever
since they were BARNS" A great
part of Canada's success was wrought
by Canadians from Caledonia, and the
young Caledonians Of today are eager
to demonstrate that they can do as
we'll out west as their forebears.
In addition to those from the old
countries, the United States still
keeps up in a strenuous manner, and
is sending it's thousands into that new
country of the north. They take up
the free homesteads Of 100 acres on
which they live for six months of
each year for three years, and then
get a deed or patent for farm that
is worth anywhere from SIS to $40
per acre, or, they may purchase lands
at from SIS to $18 per acre that will
yield with proper care in cultivation,
excellent returns for the time, work
and money expended.-Advertisement.

Hot Sun No Aid to Crops.

Farmers will be interested TO learn,
on the authority of French scientist,
that just as good harvests can be ex-
pected after dull summer as after q
long spell of sunshine.
He says that the value of the burn
ing orb's rays in helping crops is
greatly overestimated. Observations
show that crops were just as good
after the summers OF 1910 and 1912
when the skies generally were over.
cast. as after the universally sunny
summer of 1911.
The reason for this. he says. is that
only a moderate quantity OF light is
necessary to assimilate the carbonie
gas In the air.

FRONT DOOR GUARD
One of the Most Coveted Posi-
tons at Capital.
Post at White House Greatly Desired
by Members of the Police Force
Men of Rare Qualities Are Re-
CURED for the Service.

To be ION the front door" of the
executive Offices at the White House
is the most coveted police assignment
1t is much of "fixeo post" and the
men on the post hold it down, year in
and year out, whoever may be presi-
dent. So their less favored associates
on the force may feel envious, but
opportunities to supersede the incum-
bents are Happenings of once in a de-
cade.
The front door is guarded during
the day by two privates and a SER
geant. The sergeant comes on duty
early in the morning and remains I'M
til the force of the executive Office
goes home. The two subordinate al
ternate in the early and late tricks,
one coming before the sergeant ar
rives, and being relieved in the middle
of the day by the man who must stay
until after dark
The sergeant has been stationed at
the White House for over fifteen
years. One of the privates got his
assignment eleven years ago, and his
companion has had the post for eight
years.
They were chosen for special quail
iications. They stay because they
have made good" Tactfulness, gra-
ciousness, gentleness- characteristics
which are not expected of the average
policeman engaged in quieting down
disorderly persons-and also a wide
familiarity with the faces and names
of public men are required of the men
on the front door
Sergt G. L. Dalrymple-he ranks
as desk sergeant-is remarkable for
the number of men he knows by sight
and name. He has a most retentive
memory. His brand of courtesy is
Chesterfieldian; he is anxious to sat
isfy every inquiry, give every aid to
the visitor to accomplish the end he
| seeks, and goes out of his way to
please and accommodate.
The executive offices are sometimes
| the scene chosen for disorder by men
with a grudge to exploit, or with an
insane idea of some sort. Sergt.
Dalrymple has dealt with such in
stances for many years it is not
violence with which he meets the sit
uation.
The person who insists on seeing
some one who is not to be seen is al
lowed, as long as he or she is unob-
trusive, to sit in the anteroom until
their persistence wears out and they
are ready to move on. Where insist
ence becomes of the belligerent sort,
the disturber is coaxed to the door on
some sufficient pretext, and persuaded
to go about his business. The crank
is treated In much the same way, but
is gotten quietly into the custody of
the policemen stationed about the
grounds, who disposes of the case in
the orthodox way
Sergt Dalrymple-he was a mere
high private in those days-was as
signed to the White House in 1898,
when Mckinley was president. He
performed duty on the outside, around
the White House grounds, for three
years before he was called inside, in
1901. Two years after that, in 1903,
he was put on the front door, and
has stayed put ever since.

COLLECTION OF RARE BIRDS.

A collection of more than 1000 rare
birds has been presented to the Smith
sonian institution as the result of an
expedition through Africa by Maj.
Edgar Mearns, u. S. A, retired, of
the army medical corps. The birds
are now being classified and cataloged.
Major Mearns accompanied Colonel

BAKEF, Ore, July 21.-Baker

valuable publicity the past week,
when a box of Lambert cherries. rails
ed by Matt Welter at his ranch at

were of the highest quality and as
fine fruit as produced anywhere, were

and Publicity Manager Meacham re-
ceived a letter from Secretary c. c.

been the center of attraction and
highly commended by the many who
observed them.
They were not sufficiently well pre-
served for processing. according to

subject of the California land legis-

the japanese contentious that the
bill violates the Japanese-American
treaty and does not offer any sugges

The situation here has reached a
deadlock. Japan has not yet decid-

OF maintaining friendly relations that
il is believed she will not adopt re-
taliatory measures, such as the de-
nunciation of the treaty on the
ground that it is useless or the reduc-

The japanese public has been led
BY the press to the belief that Wash

GAME SATURDAY ENDS
IN VICTORY FOR WV.

A brace of two-baggers in the eighth
frame from the sticks of Sheely and
Lnndstrum Saturday broke up what
was probably the fastest and cleanest
game played in the league this year.
BY virtue of those two clouts, Walla
Walla won the game by to score.
Peet and Welch, the same two
heavers who once before engaged in
sixteen inning battle, fought pitch
ing duel from the first inning to the
last and, save in that eighth, there
was nothing to chose between them.
Welch allowed four safe ones and
Peet five. Welch struck out three
while the red topped boy whitfield ten.
Both walked one man, neither hit
batter and neither contributed a wild
pitch.
Making the game more remarkable
is the fact that, despite the one score
of the game, there were but four run
Eers left on bases. two Bears and two
Bucks. All others who reached first
safely, excepting Sheely who made the
circuit, fell victims to doubles or were
caught out on bases. In the first
seven innings but 81 men faced Peet
while in the last seven Welch pitched
to only 81. The game was played in
one hour and twenty minutes, a rec

N. YAKIMA PLAYS
HERE THIS WEEK

After breaking even with their old
enemies last week, the Pendleton
Buckarooes will engage this week in
a six game series with the North va
kima Braves who finished the first
half of the season in the cellar but
who are starting on the second half
in way that makes them serious
contenders for first honors. The SER
les will be played here in Pendleton.
North Yakima has strengthened con-
siderably since her other series here
The acquisition of Fitchner to her
pitching staff, Nadeau to the outfield
and Harrod and Netzel to the infield
has added much to her strength in
the field and at bat, so much in fact
that she took four out of six last
week from Boise, the league leaders.
Pendleton, on the other hand, is
probably weaker than at any time this
season. Berger and Peet seem to be
the only pitchers able to do creditable
work while the sale of RAIDER will be
felt both in the fielding and batting
departments. Altogether things do
not look propitious for a victorious
series

SUNDAYS GAME
The WORST YET
Buckarooes Play Like Bunch of Town
lot Kids-Bears Bat at VIII,
Winning 15-4.

If Saturdays game was the best
that has been played in Pendleton
the Sunday fiasco was the worst. The
Euckarooes played like a bunch of
townlot kids and the Bears welded
the big stick like nine Teddy Roose-
velts. The result, a 10 to 4 victory
for Walla Walla, could hardly have
been otherwise.
The first inning was good and gave
promise of royal battle between the
southpaws, Homer Jameson and Paul
Bridger, the latter late of the Boise
squad. But in the second the Pen
dieton support put the pitcher in a
hole and the fireworks started, ending
in a homerun by Johnson which
brought the score for the inning up 20
four
In the next and the next there was
a repetition and in the fourth there
was a shakeup, Osborne going to the
slab, Jameson to first, Lodell re-
tiring and King and Haworth chang
ing positions. The result was the
same Osborne got his bumps too
and in the seven Shortstop Augustus
was showed into the box in response
to throaty demand from the grand
stand. Only then did the rungetting
stop. For the final three innings, he
held the slugging Bruins to one
scratch hit and no scores
Bridger was master of the situation
at all times. He had plenty of stuff
on the spheroid and good control. He
was not striking them out but kept
the ball on the ground within easy
reach of the infield or high in the air
for the outfielders. In the third,
walk. single by Jameson ana a
scratch hit by Naughton gave the
Bucks one and in the 9TH a pass.
single by Osborne and Variants home
run gave them the other three.
The big feature of the game was the
number of homeruns batted out. Five
four-ply swats We're clouted, Walla
Walla getting four. Martini, who
sleads the league in the homerun col
umn, added two to his string. In the
fourth he hit the ball over center and
Haworth never did find it until Marty
was on the bench. In the sixth, he
swung on one of Osborne's offerings
for the longest hit ever seen on the
local diamond, the ball travelling over
Reid's head into the Roundup pad
docks back of the bleachers In the
same inning, Lundstrum made the cir
cult on a long hit to center. Johnson
made a homer in the second and Vari-
an one in the seventh.
