PHONE 96 and devices known to the street show man and which the clang of the fire bell suddenly dispersed Just as lie was getting ready for his harvest of rickles and dimes. The man with the aiimal curiosities had set up a pit show on wheels just west of Main on Alta street yesterday afternoon and soon his open-air voice could be heard sending out its invita tion to pedestrians to tarry awhile. Peing a ventriloquist, he had held the crowd with a Punch and Judy show, had amused them with a few jokes and had then begun a spiel cal culated to erouse in his hearers a cu riosity to see the extraordinary speci mens of life, a curiosity that it would take fifteen cents to satisfy. He was Just closing his wonder creating history of his two money-getters and was just ready to announce that he could accommodate only 35 at a time when "clang, clang." went the big bell in the city hall tower. With the first tap, half of his crowi was running. The second tap saw an other quarter afoot and with the third tap, the showman looked down upon fc half dozen men who were hesitatin" between two attractions. Consterna tion and chagrin were written on his face but he wasted no more words cn the few left. "Step right in, gentle men. The show is now open." he said. And the bitter Irony of the thing was that the fire alarm was a false affair. Mount William Win ASCOT. June 19. The Working ham race was won by R. J. Farqua- harum'n Mount William. C.

OLDEST MEU3ER0F OREGON BAR IS DEAD AT PORTLAND PORTLAND, Ore., June 19 Rich ard Williams, former member of con gress from Oregon, and the oldest iractitloner before the Oregon bnr. died at the age of 78 of bronchial trouble.

A new factor of Importance In European politics consists of the active alliance of the smaller nations to maintain their neutrality. The correspondent of The Dally News learns hat nego tiations are In progress between Hol land, Switzerland, Denmark and Swe den and that they will ultimately in elude Norway and Belgium. They contemplate an entente with the pro vision that in the event of any small nation's being attacked by a large nation all other members of the alli ance will attack the aggressor. As the small nations of Europe have a combined force almost as large as that of Russia or Germany, such an entente would result, it is contended, In the safety of the minor nations. Heretofore these have felt that their security lay in the Jealousy of the Powers, but ever since Japan becams a world factor Holland vhas been In terror of losing her colonies. Sweden also has been in fear of Russia. Holland had about decided to build five dreadnaughts which would have become the nucleus of a new small nations' navy when It was decided to postpone action until England could determine which was to be the war ship of the future the. dreadnaught or the submarine. It Is not expected that such an extent as that In view can be completed or officially an nounced for some time. 'e Dance a "Lulu." NEW YORK, June 19. Do you dance the "Lulu Fardo?" If not, there Is no need for apol- ogy, because the dance is brand new, or at least that was "the claim made for It when It was Introduced by the Challff Dane- ing school alumni. It Is of Por- tuguese origin and has made a- big hit In Paris and Vienna, Lou- Is H. Chaliff explained. The dance is easy; anybody could see that, and has only about 4 four steps In it, against the doz- en or moro of the tango and maxlxe. 4 You start ahead for four four measures and the music gets livelier, and then there are four quick steps and then four slow ones, llko the "one-step." Then comes a two-ntep measure, where you can turn and point your foot, like the maxlxe. This for eight measures. Finally you separate from your partner, as in the Spanish dance, snap the finKers at the beginning of the measure and clap the hands on. the lost beat. This lasts for eight measure and then you begin all over again, ' . NEWS OF FARM AND RANGE OF KO PRICES PAID IiOWEU THAX FIRST SALE; LEitS.COM PETITION' SHOWN. AT A special report to the East Ore- gonian, through the- United Press, shows the wool sale at Shanlko to uay to havtf netted lower prices to the grower than were given at the first sale. The lower prices paid Is attributed to the fact there Is now less competition for wool, some of the pievious bidders, not being at this sale. The Shaniko report says: About two hundred thousand pounds of wool was sold here today cleaning up all wools In this locality for the season. The price paid was about two cents lower thun the first sale. The following clips were purchased: By Livingston; R. Arnwlne eigh teen thousand pounds at 17 3-4; S. J. Connolly, seventeen thouand at 18 1-8; It. R. Yeys, fifteen thousand five hun dred at 18 3-8. By Koshland; Phys. Humphrey's, thirteen . thousand two hundred and fifty pounds at 16 1-4.

Much Wheat Contracted Yester day's estimate by this paper as to the amount of unharvested wheat con tracted for here did not overstate the case. It Is said on thoroughly reli able authority that between 250,000 and 300,000 bushels have been sold at 70 cents. The source of the buy ing was as stated yesterday though other houses have also done some con. trading. The market Is still open at 70 cents though It is possible delivery requirements might not be satisfac tory to some farmers. Some time ago it would have been possible for farm ers to have contracted at prices better than 70 cents. They would not do so then but the subsequent reports to an expected bumper crop has caused them to relax their hold somewhat. Selling Beef Cattle M. R.
