ST. LOUIS PICNIC


The st. Louis picnic which was held
in Joseph Rubens grove last Sunday was
not as well attended this year as was
hoped for, presumably on account of the
hot and dusty weather, but chose who

and was enjoyed by all, likewise the vO-

The reeitations by Mrs. Flank Ma.

usual eloquence.

For example," said Newell "the
power necessary to haul ton from
Pendleton to Portland would lift it 2944
feet, or amount to 2944 foot tons, while
7l06 foot tons are NEEDED to take that
ton to Tacoma.
Conversely, the power needed to haul
a ton from Portland to Peadleton would
lift that ton 1884 feet in the air, but
the power needed to move a ton from
Tacoma to Pendleton would lift it 7647
feet in the air. This, he said, shows
that about third as much power is

to Portland as from Pendieton 10 Ia

The eetual distaHce in miles is 216
from Pcndleton to Portland and 302

of SO miles. The actual distance be-

400 miles of straight level track, and
the distance of PIG miles between Port
