Mr. Brooks, the TJ. S. signal service
officer, hoisted the first signal this morn
ing. It is a white flag indicating clear
weather, and being hoisted over the
: Chboxiclk building, we wish it distinctly
understood that the white flag does not
apply to the Chronicle but only to the
weather.

The sneak, thief referred to elsewhere
in this issue, has been getting .in his
work in good shape and is evidently de
., girous of starting a livery stable. Sun
day night he, or some one else, stole
set of harness from Mr. Wakefield,
-another from George Miller and another
from H. C. Neilsen. He also took an
overcoat from Miller's place. v
The warm weather which has to
- . great extent prevailed all winter cul
" minated .Monday in a warm sunshiny
suring-like dav. . It was beautiful but
dangerous. We hope to see the ther
mometer get down in the twenties and
stay there, as this will be necessary if
we are to have a fruit crop. Another
week or two of warm weather would be
ruinous to the fruit industries, as even
now the buds are swelling.
' A letter to McFarland fc French from
" John Days says, "The weather has been
unusually warm, but no. rain and no
grass on the range. . Feed is plenty in
the shape of hay, and stock doing well
except sheep, which are falling off badly
as they do not seem to do well on any
kind of hay raised there except alfalfa.
The weather at the time of writing, Jan
' nary 1st, was threatening, and no doubt,
the last storm visited them. . The writer
thinks that section will have quite a
boom in silver mining soon, as there is
an abundance of low grade ore.
: Some wretch with no fear of the law,
; - and no regard for the rights of others,
last night helped himself to a set of
single' buggy harness belonging to Mr,
Jnd Fish. The thief emptied a sack filled
' with pitch kindling wood, and evidently
': used the sack to carry off the harness in.
The same fellow probably, stole two
"-. collars from a teamster at' Books &, Beers,
' and got away with a whip from someone
else. From indications the fellow will
have a horse ' before long, so it is well
enough to lock the stable doors now.
" In growing the best of everything the
farmer lifts himself above the competi
tion that now oppresses him. It is often
:said in the professions that there is room
jit the top, and this rule holds good in
farming as it does in nearly every em--;
. ploymet.- Instead of getting out of
arming, condemning -the business as
. necessarily unprofitable, a more just
conclusion would be that the best (ann-
ing like the best of everything else, must
always pay, and the effort should then
he to learn how this may be attained. .
Alisfortnnes never come singly, but
- tliey seem to have conie with unusual
severity on Mr. Fred Rawlins formerly
train dispatcher here. Just after his
' resignation, his wife dislocated her
ankle, and all three of his bright Uttla
children were taken down with scarlet
fever. Kitty, died, and, owing to the
contagions nature of the disease was fol
lowed to the cemetery by her bereaved
parents alone. Zaida and Mellis rallied
and were thought out of danger, but
this morning the sad . news reached us
that Mellis, the little boy is dead. Mr.
and Mrs. Rawlins have a host of friends j
here who sympathize deeply with them i

The effort to establish a new county
including Mosier, Hood River and the
Cascade Locks, is meeting considerable
opposition at the Cascade Locks.
From two thousand to two thousand
five hundred tons of grain are being
carried to Portland by the Union Pacific
daily.
The hills across the river are covered
with a light fall of snow, which from
present weather indications will either
be increased before tomorrow or else dis
appear with a rain. J
The commissioner's' court is in session.

Mr. W. McD. Lewis Tuesday took the
contract for digging the ditch and bring
ing the water from Clear creek to the
Oak Grove country. This ditch was be
gun by the Oak Grove and Juniper Flat
Ditch company, The completion of this
ditch will make this one of thelaest sec
tions of Wasco county, and the fact that
Mr. McD. Lewis has taken the contract
is.a sufficient guaranty that it will be
done.
Mr.W. McD. Lewis arrived in from
Wapinitia Tuesday evening, on his way
to Portland and thence to Salem. He
informs us that there has been more
rain in the country around wapinitia
than between that place and" The Dalles,
He has made a proposition to the
Wapinitia folks to complete the Clear
lake, ditch, and it is probable arrange
ments will be made by which the work
will be done in the spring. It would be
of immense benefit to three or four
townships, and should be completed
soon as possible.
THE WEATHER SIGNALS.
Explanation or the Flag Code Which
Will be Displayed In Future. .
The signal service flags have arrived
and Observer Brooks will have them
displayed daily from the pole over the
Chronicle office. This paper will also
publish the weather probabilities for the
coming twenty-four hours.
Number 1, white flag, six feet square,
indicates clear or fair weather. Number
2, blue flag, six feet square, indicates
rain or snow. Number 3, black, trian
gular flag, fonr feet at the base and six
feet in length, always refers to temper
ature; when placed above nnmbers 1
or 2 it indicates warmer weather ; when
placed below numbers 1 or 2 it indicates
colder weather, when not displayed, the
indications are that the temperature
will remain stationary, or that the
change in temperature will not vary
four degrees from the temperature of
the same hour of the proceeding day.
Number 4, white flag, six feet square,
with black square in centre, indicates
the approach of a tudden and decided
fall in temperature. This signaljis not
to be displayed unless it is expected that
the temperature will fall to forty-five
degrees, or lower, and is usually ordered
at least twenty-four hours in advance of
the cold wave. When number 4 is dis
played, number 3 is always omitted.
When displayed on poles the signals
should be arranged to read downward ;
when displayed on horizontal supports a
small streamer should be attached to in
dicate the point from which the signals
are to be read.
INTERPRETATION OF DISPLAYS.
No. 1, alone, indicates fair weather,
stationary temperature.
No. 2, alone, indicates rain or snow,
stationary temperature.
No. 1, with No. 3 below it, indicates
fair weather, colder.
No. 2, with No. 3 above it, indicates
warmer weather, rain or snow.
No. 1, with No. 4 below it, indicates
fair weather, cold wave.
No. 3, with Nos. 1 and 2 below it, in
dicates warmer, fair weather, followed
by rain or snow.
The meaning of the flag code of the
signal service may be gathered from the
following lines :
A sun of Ted is weather warm,
A sun of blue Is general storm :
A crescent red 1b weather cold,
A crescent blue is fair foretold.
A star of red no change implies,
A blue star locaLstormy skies;
. A square of black on flag of white,
A cold wave comes in all its might.
THE BONDS FLOATED,
Information That Hunt Has at Laat Ob
tained Funds. '
Tacoma, Jan. 6. It was remarked on
the streets last evening and to-day that
George W. Hunt, the railroad magnate
of the Walla Walla valley, has at last
floated 2,000,000 of Oregon & Washing
ton railroad bonds in-London, the money
realized from the bonds to be used in ex
tending the Hunt system of railroads.
John B. Patton, president of the Tacoma
Passenger and Baggage Transfer Com
pany, an old acquaintance of Mr. Hunt's
to-day confirmed it, stating that he had
information direct from New York, where
Mr. Hunt now is, to the effect that bonds
to the amount named had been sold in
London. Mr. Patton regards his informa
tion as conclusive, but expects to hear
from Mr. Hunt again about the loth,
when further details will be given him,
"The placing of these bonds," Mr. Patton
said, "means the extension of the Oregon
& Washington railroad from Wallula
Junction to Portland, as Mr. Hunt has
for a long time desired to do." Several
weeks ago it was reported that a coali
tion had been formed between Hunt and
President Jim H ill, of the Great Northern.
It is regarded as likely that Hill assisted
Hunt in floating his bonds in London

The board of trade met Tuesday
President Macallister in the chair,
minutes of last meeting were read and
approved. Communications from Sena
tor Mitchell, Honorable Binger Hermann
and the president of the Portland Cham
ber of Commerce relative to the special
appropriation for completing the Cascade
locks were received, read and placed on
file. Standing committees for the ensu
ing year were appointed by the president.
A. S. Macallister, E. B. McFarland and
G. J. Farley were elected delegates to
the state board of commerce which meets
at Salem on the 14th. The report of the
committee on woolen mill proposition
was read, filed and the matter made the
special order of business for the meeting
Saturday night. This report was accom
panied by proposition by Mrs. Laugh

Dalles Land and Improvement Co., to
donate a mill site.
The steamboat matter was put over to
Saturday and also made a special order

The meeting was well attended and

A "Ghost Dancer Here." '
An Indian reported vesterday that
Sunday an Indian arrived on the train
from Dakota, that he had been wounded
severlv. and showed the Indians here
his wounds, claiming to have been
killed and brought to life again by the
Indian Messiah ; that he has aroused
considerable excitement among the
Indians here, who are dancing, and that
he is trying to instil the Messiah craze
into them and get them to go to war
with the whites. " It is not probable the
fellow, if he is here, could induce the
Indians to take any - stock in his
statements, but a few such runners
scattered among the ' Shoshones and
Piutes south of us might cause serious
trouble. From Sarah Winnemucca's
statement, just such messengers have
been sent among her people, and it may
be possible that the story told by the
Indian here is' substantially true.

Actress Lizzie Dnrose Killed by her En
raged Husband.
Sax Fhaxxisco, Jan. 6. Lizzie Dur
ose, a young actress who appeared re
centlv at the Bijou and Powell street
theaters, was shot to-night and almost
instantly killed bv Robert Durose, her
husband, who was employed as a guard
at the San Quentin prison. Mrs Durose
has been more partial to the societv of
other men than she was to her husband,
and recently she has been very much
attached to A. E. Mitchell, an English
actor. She was in his room last night
in a house at 118 Ellis street, when her
luisband entered and shot her. After
the shooting the husband and wife were
reconciled and kissed one another. He
was taken from the room, while the doc
tors dressed the wound, but begged pit-
eously to be taken back. His wife also
called for him, and 'just as he entered
the room, she died. As she breathed
her last Durose gave one shriek and fell
fainting to the floor. He attemped to
kill her before, about three years ago
while she was in company with an actor
named Charlie Brush, Durose achieved
considerable notoriety about two years
ago. While employed as a lineman by
the California Electric Light Company
he-received a shock and was paralysed,
remaining in the hospital for three
months.
CURIOUS SUIT.
Blaine Sued for Losses From Buying
Confederate Bonds Prior to 1863.
Baltimobe, Jan. 6. Juan Roalte, the
Dutch consul at Glasgow, has brought
suit against James G. Blaine, as secre
tary of the United States. Prior to July
28, 1868, plaintiff bought $125,000 of
negotiable coupon bonds, issued by the
southern states, as state and confederate
states bonds jointly. On the date
named above, Secretary of State Seward
issued a proclamation that all such obli
gations were void. Plaintiff contends
that this was an implied admission that
without such prohibition the debt or
obligation would be good and valid. He
alleges that Seward's proclamation was
an illegal interference with the rights of
plaintiff as a citizen of Great Britain
and Holland. The case presents many
curious points. Ihe principal con ten
tion will be that as the United States
alwavs held that none of the southern
states were out of the union, the secre
tary of state had no authority to issue
the proclamation.

Reducing Union
Along
San Fbancisco, Jan 4. The tele
graphic news of the big cuts in the salar
ies of Union Pacific officials naturally
give little pleasure to the local, offices.
In addition to the reductions mentioned,
the salaries of the general agent at
Omaha and some of his assistants have
also been cut. This step on the part of
the new Gould regime is not calculated
to increase its popularity, which com
menced to wane as soon as the discharge
oi employes was inaugurated. At the
city offices no notice of the cut affecting
local men has yet been received.
Why a Good Fighter Was Removed.
Omaha, Jan. 4. A special from Pine
Ridge says that this afternoon, in ac
cordance with instructions telegraphed
from Washington, General Forsythe was
relieved of his command of the Seventh
cavalry, pending investigation of the
Wounded Knee affair. Major White
sides succeeds to the command of the
regiment. Whitesides says the affair
was an accident; that a few moments
before fighting began the squaws were
merrily pelting the searching party with
bundles of rags. The accepted reason
for Forsythe's relief is the manner inl
which his troops were placed in the
fight.
An Indian Shot at Colfax.
Coijax, Washington. Jan. 6. Bones,
a son of the chief of the Palouse Indians
was shot by the city marshal last night
while attempting to escape, while under
arrest for drunkeness. His recovery is
doubtful.

Business transactions have been fair,
although light, in all lines of merchan
dise.
In conversation with one of our brok
ers we learn that while money is seem
ingly tight, there is sufficient offerings
to meet all demands for temporary loans
on gilt-edged security. It is pleasing to
note that while the east is under a strin
gent market, Oregon is feeling easy and
independent.
In the produce market the transac
tions have been light, and the move
ment of wheat has been limited, as
hut few sales have been made from first
hands, owing to the low prices main
tained and the lack of tonnage for export
in the grain centers.
Foreign markets as usual are very
fluctuating, and yesterday's cablegram
iudicated a stiffness, and an advance for
future spot wheat, of id per cental.
Chicago and New York markets are
dull and easy with fluctuation through

KING KALAKAUA'S MOVEMENTS.
He Will Return Home After His South
ern California Trip.
San Fbvncisco, Jan. 4. King Kalak
aua and the gentleman who accompanied
him on his southern tour, will return to
this city on Friday next. It has been
rumored that his majesty, very shortly
after his arrival here, will leave for Hon
olula direct. It has been learned from
good authority that the United States
steamer Charleston has leen ordered at
once to the dry dock at Mare Lsland to
have her bottom cleaned, and that she
is to be immediately afterward put in
readiness to sail for Honolula, taking
the king there as a passenger.
While no official orders have been
issued as yet, said Consul McKinley
last night, it is expected that his majesty
will leave this citv for Honolula on the
Charleston about January 16th, that is,
about a week after his return from the
south.
Stories about King Kalakaua's pro

Bridge Trouble Will Not. Interfere.
Chicago, Jan. 6. A dispatch received
here from New York to-day quotes
President Cable of the Rock Island, as
saying that the trouble over the Union
Pacific bridge contract was not of suffic

men here that the agreement will be put
into effect whether the Bock Island and

Minnesota.
St. Paul, Jan. 6. In the Minnesota
legislature to-day the alliance-democrat
combination elected their caucus nomi
nees. In spite of numerous conferences.
however, the three parties in the lower
house are yet far from a compromise.
The democrats claim the alliance got the
best of it in the senate, and they want
the best of the offices in the house. The
republicans hope through this failure to
elect their man.
