Cool In FACE Of Death.

One of the most extraordinary cases
of sangfroid on the scaffold occurred
sometime ago, when Macdonald, who
murdered a Miss Holt, paid the pen
atty of his crime in England The
hangman had forgotten the white cap
to place ever the prisoners eyes and
Macdonald, noticing what had hap
pened, remarked TO his executor:
Put your hand in my breast pocket
and you'll find a silk handkerchief
That will do to bind my eyes, won't it

the year there Is not a vacant one to
be had in the city at the presen.
time. With this movement there has
also come great awakening of civi,
pride. This Is shown must foreibly
in the character of buildings being
erected. in the care which Is being
given to grounds and parkings, and
in the amount of money being put
into permanent sidewalks and street
work. From being a city in which
people simply staid to make money
Pendleton has developed into a city
of homes and churches.
1t is doubtful If any city of equaI
size can boast of as beautiful and
expensive edifices as the EpiscopaI.
Methodist, Christian and Catholic
churches of this city. The latter now
in course of construction, will cost
more than either of the others, any
one of which would be a credit to a
congregation in a city of many times
the population of Pendleton
In the matter of theatres Pendle-
ton is also now well supplied, the
new vaudeville house Just completed
on Alta street supplying the Ia-,
necessary link.
AS Pendleton was the first city in
the state outside of Portland to boast
of paved streets so now it bids fair
within the next few months to have
a greater amount of pavement than
any other city with the single eXcep-
ton of the metropolis. This is pos
sibly the improvement which strikes
the stranger the most forcibly upon
his arrival. and Is undoubtedly one
of the contributing factors toward
the awakening of the civic pride
spirit.
