Makes Tenth Trip to Pen.

For the tenth time in 81 years, Ed
Hall alias many other names is to-
day making a trip to a state peni-
tentiary to commence sentence. He
recently pleaded guilty to obtaining
money under false pretenses, having
passed a bad check upon Bond Bros
and was sentenced to the penitentiary
for a period ranging from one to five
years. Sheriff Taylor has secured the
mans criminal record which shows
that he has served three different
sentences at San Quentin, Calf, two
in the Wyoming penitentiairy, and
one each at Salt Lake, Santa Fe, Can
on City, Colo, and Carson City, New
During the whole of the 21 years he
has not been out of Jail for more than
few months at a time. Before be-
ing picked up here. last September
he had only been ont NJ San Quen-
tin three months. The officers cite
him as a good argument for an hab-
itual criminal law. With Hall. Sheriff
Taylor also took William Wilson tt
the state prison today. Wilson wai
given a similar sentence for a similar
offense.

War" Norman Angel applies his now
well known theory ''the conquest no
longer pays to the special problem
of the Balkan war without casuistry
and gic-chopping."
He contends that this war had JUS
titled both the old pacifics and the
new BY universal admission events
have proved that the pacifists, who
opposed the Crimean war, were right
and their opponents wrong. Had
public opinion given more consider
alton to those pacifist principles this
country would not have backed the
wrong horse" and this war two wars
which have preceded 1t, and many OF
the denominations of which the Bal
kan peninsula has been the scene dur
ing the last sixty years, might have
been avoided.
Mr.. Angel does not deny the possi-
bility of war.
"It is not the likelihood of war
which is the allusion, but its benefits.

Judge Phelps Has Smallpox.

The affliction which has kept Judge
G. w. Phelps from his bench for the
past few days and which was at first
thought to be but an attack of la
grippe, has proved to be a severe case
of smallpox and the judge is now un-
der quarantine. Due to the fact that
he had never been vaccinated, the
disease has taken a firm hold on the
patient according to his physician.
This is the only case of smallpox in
Pendleton at the present time and
as it is the first to be reported here
this winter, it is supposed that the
| judge contracted it during some OF
| his out of town visits.

FANS
SOURED ON SWEET

The reelection of w. n. Sweet of
Boise to the presidency of the West
ern Tri-state league does not enhance
the chance of Pendleton maintaining
a club in that league if expressions
from local fans are to be taken as a
criterion. They will have none of
Sweet. His actions at the close of
last season by which it was possible
for the team of his home city to grab
second place in the league race have
soured them on him and his name has
grown to be a misnomer insofar as
their palates are concerned.
L. G.. Frazier, Pendleton director of
the league, declared this morning that
prominent fans of the city have de-
clared positively that they would not
support a team again in league
headed by Sweet. The action taken
at the La Grande meeting came as a
big surprise here for those closest in
touch with the situation understood
that both Walla Walla and La Grande
shared the local disaffection.
Regardless of whether Sweet is re-
tanned in the chief executive chair,
there is some doubt as to whether a
team will be put in the field here,
Those who officered the Pendleton
club last year are not willing to as
sumo the responsibility again and, If
the club is to be kept here, some new
leaders must come forward to take
the brunt of the hard work.
{ President Charles Bond declared
this morning that he could not per-
sonally take part in the management
another year though he would will
lingly contribute for the support of {
team. "If we could secure some com
petent man to take the franchise" III
said, Il think we could raise $3.50
to help in the financing part" Other
prominent in the club last year ex
pressed themselves in like vein.
Frazier believes that six team
club as proposed would pay much bet
ter than would a four team leagu
ard would like very much to see Pen
dleton take another chance. He hat

SAD PICTURE IN DOWNFALL.
Child Emperor of China Has Only
Eunmchs and Toy Soldiers TO Rule.

Peking.-A pathetic picture is
drawn. by a special correspondent,
of the plight of the former emperor
of China The immense precincts of
the winter palace in the Forbidden
City, he says, are absolutely deserted
save for the empress dowager, the
child emperor and a few hundred
eunuchs.
All the princesses. all the occupants
Of the imperial harem. all the blood
relatives of the imperial clan have
disappeared, leaving the empress and
her child alone.
The emperor is a dull, listless child,
not knowing what has happened. He
plays ceaselessly with toy soldiers in
the halls and tagged courtyards that
were trodden by the feet not only OF
his illustrous ancestors but by Ku-
blai Kahn himself. and which once
rang to the hurrahs of horsemen re-
turning from the conquest of half
Asia.
