Staggers felt quite proud as he
thought of the anticipated garb. He
went to restaurant, sat at q real
table, and did very finely on a twenty.

Once settled in a comfortable seat,
Staggers was loath to give up the
lights, the warmth and the soothing
excitemnt. He heard some one say
1t was raining outside Mrs. Ainslee
had given him an old umbrella, and
Staggers felt proudly that he did not

He sat through the performances
Of the same thing over and over again.

Monster, Crowd to Walla yvalIa.

If Walla Walla is crowded to ca
pacity during her frontier perform
ance, it will not be because Pendleton
turns out en- masse to witness it. The
O.-W. r. & y. has announced a special
train service between the two cities
during the last three days of the week
and this morning started a special
train, consisting of two engines and
eight coaches from the local depot.
When the train pulled out at 1880
there were just 19 people aboard by
actual count and in the number were
included the conductor and brakeman.
The passengers were probably those
who were en- route to Walla Walla and
not to the show Local people are not
taking kindly to the attempt of the
Washington city to initiate the Round
up, especially in view Of her promise
two years ago not only to refrain from
such action herself but to discourage
any other northwest cities with such
intentions.

from what is known as entero- -colitis,

gravated by eating the candy. She
was unable to retain anything upon
hei stomach for several days and, in
her weakened condition, gradually
wasted away Rumors afloat that
someone was seen giving the child
candy are denied by the parents, Mrs
Henderson stating that the candy was
bought by her elder daughter. For
several days the child had been sui.
fering mildly from bowel trouble and
the candy served only to aggravate
It. The funeral of the little one will
te held tomorrow afternoon at the

MORE IMPROvEM ENTS
OF STREETS PLANNED
VINCENT, LEE AND BLAINE ARE
THOROUGHFARES NEXT
TO BE PAVED.

More street Improvement was out
lined at the meeting of the city coun-
Gil last evening. Three petitions
from property owners were presented
and, upon the recommendation of the
street committee, were allowed. Res
olutions will be adopted in accord
ance with the views expressed at the
next meeting.
One of the petitions asked for the
paving of Vincent street from Lewis
to Court, distance of a block, an
other asked for the paving of Lee
street from Lewis to Court, a dis
tance of a block. and the third asked
for the macadamizing of Blaine street
from the new bridge to Raley street
The Vincent street petition was
signed by about so per cent of the
property owners affected, while the
Lee street petition was almost hun
dred per cent petition. However, the
resolutions of the council may extend
the Lee street district so that II will
connect with the Alta street pave
ment, thus forming a loop. The
Blaine street petition was signed by
nearly so per cent of the property
owners and, though some of the coun-
cilmen were of the opinion that the
improvement should be of hard sur
face, they decided that the wishes OF
the majority should prevail and ac-
cordingly voted to grant the petition
Mayor Matlock was of the opinion
that initial measures should soon be
taken toward improving the half
block between Court street and the
new Star street bridge and, inasmuch
as the city owns half of the assessable
property, he declared himself in ia
vor of hard surface
