The highest scoring White Orping
ton pullet in the world is now on ex-
hibition at the local poultry show
across the street from the post office.
She is Snow Princess and is owned
by Byron Hawks the we'll known
Athena druggist.
According to Judge Miller Purvis,
one of the country's best poultry ex-
perts, the Princess is probably the
only really white bird of her breed
in the United States. And Purvis
knows. In addition to being recog-
nzed as one of the foremost poultry
judges in either the east or west, he
is the editor of Poultry Life, pub
lished in Portland; the poultry editor
of the Breeders Gazette of Chicago,
and for many years was editor of
Poultry, published in Chicago. He
has visited every poultry farm of any
from Petaluma, California, to Mar
thas Vineyard, Mass. and he de-
lares without hesitancy that the
Athena product is far and ahead of
any White Orpington he ever saw
not excepting Peggy" the world re-
nowned $4,000 hen which brought
fame ana fortune to Kellerstrass.
He says the Princess is better chick
en- than Peggy ever was.
When Judge Purvis picked up the
wonderful pullet yesterday to score
her, he realized that he had in his
hands bird that was one in a thou
sand. He Immediately proceeded to
go over her as carefully as it is pos
sible for a judge to do in search of
defects. But try as he might he could
find but few excuses to make cuts
and when the card was finally made
out it was found her score was ex-
actly 90 or but four points short OF
perfect.
Other Birds of Quality.
But the Snow Princess" is not the
only bird of quality at the local show.
There is Sunnycrest Queen with a
score of 93 1-2 which makes her the
highest scoring Brown Leghorn hen
ever exhibited In the state of Oregon
and Lady Morrow" the highest
scoring Barred Plymouth Rock her
in the state. Her score is 80 and she

Matlock called the attention OF the
council again to the state law which
requires cities situated like Pendle-
ton to dispose of their sewage by a
septic tank. He states that 1t was a
matter which must soon be acted up
on. Chairman Sharon of the sewer
committee estimated that such a
tank would cost between $1,000 and

Toxic, Jan. 23.-Dissolution of the
japanese diet as soon as it's sessions
reopen, is believed inevitable as a re-
suit Of a conflict between the faction
headed by Prince Katsura and the
Seiykukai party. Katsura and his adj
herents are endeavoring to secure
majority of the members of the diet
during suspension of its sittings. 1t
is not believed they will succeed but
their strength is doubtless sufficient
to greatly embarrass the Saionji min
istry and possibly force a resignation.

The age of wooden walks has pass
ed in Pendleton. Hereafter it will
be unlawful to construct any side
walk within the city limits of any
thing but concrete, cement or other
fireproof substance This is the pro-
vision made by an ordinance adopted
unanimously by the city council
last evening and which goes into ef-
feet at once Heretofore. wooden
walks have only been taboo in GER
tain sections of the city but il was
the opinion of the councilmen that
the time has arrived when perma-
nent walks should be required on
every street which is legally opened.
Councilman Cole declared that the
cost of concrete walks is now but
little more than that of wooden
walks and hence it would be economy
to build the former
Another action taken by the coun-
ell last evening which may have an
important bearing was the instruc-
ting of the city attorney to prepare
a bill for submission to the legislature
by which, if adopted, it will be pos
sible for any municipality to hold Il
filing on a water power site indefi-
nitely without doing assessment work.
Assessor &. p. Strain brought the
matter before the council and ii met
with unanimous approval. In speak
ing of the privilege 1t would give the
city Mr. Strain referred to the city
of Eugene, which, under the admin
istration of Mayor E. ID. Matlock
brother of the Pendleton mayor. ha6
constructed municipal power plan
which is now paying concern.
