eloped, and that they would be well

Mr.. Sngumn called the district at

Duke Pays His Rent.

LONDON. June 1S.-Being the an
niversary of the battle of Waterloo Il
was rent day for the Duke of Well
ington, but his grace did not have to
dive into his pockets very deeply and
ii was with an air of unconcern that
he drove over to Windsor Castle TO
present King George with the little
silken flag on silver staff which
covers the rent of his big Strathfield
Saye estate for the ensuing year The
estate was presented by the nation
to the victor of Waterloo and cost
originally $1,315,0O0. and under the
act ot parliament every duKe I Well
ington is required to present repii-
ca of one of the French standards
captured by his famous ancestor on
the anniversary of the battle. Fail
ing the payment of this possession
rent the estate reverts to the crown
but as the flag costs only about twen-
ty dollars there is no record of any
holder of the title losing sleep over
his liability or being late in payment.

PORTLAND, Ore. June 19.-Fhosa
pioneer men and women who assem-
bled in Portland YESTERDAY for their
forty-second annual reunion are NOT
so old as the dates of their immigra-
ton to oregon seem to indicate.
They are pretty spry lot, those
old folks, and are able to knock
about with more apparent east and
comfort, for their age, than are the
members of the present generation.
None of that wonted sadness and
gloom that too often are associated
with the life and character of the pi-
cneers was present yesterday. At any
rate it didn't make its appearance on
the surface.
Jokes Snapped and Backs Slapped.
Contrarily. they were a joyful, hap
py crowd. They got together and
talked in small groups and in pairs.
they exchanged anecdotes, swapped
jokes, slapped one another on the
back. laughed and sang and hoped
about like the same number of school
children on a picnic.
1t must be glorious to be a pioneer
What seems to be an impressive
note in gathering such as that; in
deed, what seems to be the character
istic of the whole picturesque specta-
Gle is the undefiled loyalty to Oregon.
They swear by this old state.

LAST LOCAL GAME IN
B.M.L. TO Be SUNDAY

For the last time this season, PEN
dleton ball fans will have a chance
Sunday to see the local Blue Noun
tain team in action. Weston will be
the opposing team and, inasmuch as
these two teams have fought some
hard battles before, the farewell game
here is expected to be worth seeing.
Duff or McCarrigle will work for Pen
dleton.
The season of the league will close
a week from Sunday with Pendleton
playing at Pilot Rock and Weston
playing at Milton. The Milton Free
water team has the pennant cinched
and the local team has an undisputed
title to the cellar position, not so
much through failure to play the game
as it should be played but because 1t
has been playing in hard luck. The
boys expect to add at least one win
to their string before the season
Passes into history.

States, have joined the Buy Bale"

representative they will buy not less
than 10000 bales at 10 cents a

among their representatives in pro-
portion to the volume of business
done annually in their respective ter
ritOries. This is the largest number
of bales thus far pledged by any one
firm to- Join the buy a bale movement.
The example of Morris & Co.. will un-
doubtcdly have great. influence upon
other big firms doing business in the
South and the Buy Bale" move
ment will be immensely strengthen
ed. If all the great packing houses
should do as much as Morris & CO.,
many thousand bales of distress cot
ton would be withdrawn from the
market and spot buyers for the mills
and exporters would besforced to pay
at least ten cents to obtain any cotton
at all.
Mr.. j. H. Wooten, who represents
Morris & Co.. in this city stated today
that he had not been informed as to
the number of bales he is to buy for
the account of his firm. but he is sat-
istied it will be not less than one hun

this cotton and as soon as he has
definite instructions will take steps to
buy the cotton on the local market

In Difficulty on Formers Place.

From The Daily Item. Sept. is.
This morning about 10 o'clock j.
{. Rogers, young farmer living near
1'rivatcer, shot Screvcn Does. "a share
occurred in a difficulty caused by or
dcrs given Dees by Rogers as to the
ginning of the formers cotton. The
bullet struck Dees near the center of
the forehead, but it's seriousness had
not been determined up to two o'clock
today.
Information concerning the shoot
ing could not be obtained this morn
ing, except in a meagre way. Rogers
telephOned Sheriff Bradford imme-
diatcly after the shooting and deputy
Eppcrson was sent out to his home
about seven miles from town, for
him. He found that Rogers had made
arrangements to come into town and
give himself up and he was allowed
to do SO without being arrested.
Mr.. Rogers in his statement to
Deputy EppersOn said that there had
been some words between himself
and Dces, and Dees, who is large
man, jumped on him and tried to
choke him. Dees' son was also en-
deavoring to get to him with knife.
Under these circumstances he had
drawn his pistol and fired at Dces,
the ball striking him in the fore
head. Rogers had Immediately left,
when Dees fell. Rogers is small in
stature.
Dces was brought to the Tourney
Hospital by his son and was able to
get out Of the buggy and walk to the
building without assistance it is re-
ported. He was examined by DR., Hol-
man, who found no indications that
the bullet was pressing on the BRAIN
He then decided to wait until the
blood could be cleaned off and Dces
head shaved before he made a fur
ther examination. Dr. Holman stat
ed that he could not say whether the
would was serious until he made a
fuller examination.
The examination by DR.. Holman
showed that one of Dees fingers had
been bitten, an indication bearing out

From the Daily Item, Sept IS.
This morning shortly after two
o'clock w. A. Cole. terminal train
master on the Atlantic Coast Line
train at Florence. was shot by an un-
known negro at PinewoOd. as the
train was leaving the station. MIR.
Cole was brought on to Sumter,
where he was taken to the Tourney
Hospital. An examination, followed
by the removal of the bullet, showed
that the wound was not fatal, al
though 1t proved very painful to the
injured. The bullet entered near the
center Of the abdomen, passing
around near the surface and inflicting
flesh wound.
The shooting occurred after several
negroes had been put off at Pine
wood. The train was the Atlantic
Coast Line excursion train between
Florence and Augusta. The train was
crowded. but crowd had been more
than usually orderly during the trip.
which had returned as far as Pine
woOd without anything untoward to
mar the excursion. Following the
shooting the Sumter county authori-
ties we're notified and Sheriff Bradford
and Deputy EppersOn at orce went
down toSthe scene, although tho shoot
ing had not taken place in Sumter
county. At Pinewood they were un-
able to secure any information at all
about the shooting or to locate any
OF the negroes who were present when
the shooting took place. The station
agent. however, assured them that lie
had sold nineteen tickets and that
sixteen Of these tickets had been sold
to negroes. He knew each one of
these negroes, and as ii was one of
the negroes who got off the train who
did the shooting, 1t Is thought that in
time the criminal can be apprehend-
ell.
When seen ut the Tourney Hospital
today, Mr.. Cole was just finishing up
his dinner. The bullet had been re-
moved and he was feeling much bet
ter. although still very sore from the
wound. Mrs. Cole had been notified
of the shooting and came over on
the morning train from Florence
and was with him.
Mr.. Cole stated that he had been
through the train several times and
had just remarked to another member
