He says it does not cost a cent more to keep bees than it does to keep mosqui toes, ana tney are much more profitable The Esquimaux who are coming to the worlds fair are expected to suffer from the extreme heat of our winters, it is fortunate, then, that they will not arrive here until the country has cooled down niter election. A peculiar trade is reported between Mike Kennedy and Mart Wing at Wam ic. Mike wanted some cats and had a valuable dog. Mart had the cats and wanted a dog. So he bought the dog for $200, payable in cats at $10 a head. The trade is a bona fide contract, witnessed by T. J. and Bert Driver. Starkweather of Clackamas county, is never satisfied unless he is chasing a rainbow. He is a peopopulist this year, He is a statesman "out of a job" wait ing for political crumbs. Phil Shannon says he is a thoroughbred Jack, contin ually braying oph-oph-oph-is. Lake & Woodcock's new mill was vis ited by Messrs. Chrisman and Connelly who unite in saying that it has the finest machinery of any mill in Wasco county. On a run of eleven hours it cuts 25,000 feet of lumber. It is located in a fine place, convenient to the settlements, and has an abundant supply of timber handy. Mr. John Buckler, another brother' of Mrs. Brickell, has arrived from Victoria and will identify himself at once with The Dalles. Mr. Brickell is taking quite a lively interest in colonizing our city. He has lived away from here just long enough to learn that there are very few if any better points for business on the coast. , .. Assessor Flower of Portland died yes terday, after an illness of twenty days, from the effects of a cold contracted by sitting in a street car where he was ex posed to the cold current of air while the conductor held the front door open and collected .fare from passengers on I the front platform. This is a custom that should be broken up, it is produc tive of many more serious cases of sick ness than are reported. ;' ' . '' Capt;Shannon,oneof the originators of the Peoples Transportation Co., which gave the old Oregon. Steam Navigation Co.. such a livelv racket on the Colum- ... . , . ., !. :n the. -uia river eariv in mo ouvw., city, Phil belongs to that claes of men who nptpp rust. He is looking as hale and hearty as he d'id 29 years ago, when we first met him in Oregon city. Hop Ghee Whang and five or six of his celestial followers went up to the cemetery this afternoon to perform the rite of "feeding the spirit" of the de parted Ah AVhang Gee, who is a dead cousin of Hop, on his way to glory by the China line. They left a dry goods box full of grub on Ah Gee's grave, which will make the birds and equirrels happy for several days. Commencing Saturday the 29th at 10 a. m., and every Saturday at the same hour until otherwise ordered, there will be offered for eale at public auction, through W. H. Butts, auctioneer, by authority of the city, the remaining un sold lots, belonging to the water fund. Not many lots remain unsold, and no body should miss tbe opportunity to be present and make profitable invest ments. The terms of payment are very liberal. The Heppner Gazette pays a high compliment to our worthy young friend N. J. Sinnott, by publishing his patriotic and eloquent address at the Columbus day celebration under the auspices of the G. A. R., on the 21st. The Gazette says : "Mr. Sinnott's speech was a mas terly effort and warmly applauded. He has ability in this line rarely equalled and seldom excelled by so young a man, being only in his 22d year." The com mittee of arrangements also tendered him a vote of thanks for the address. Word has iust reached here of the death of George Ramsey, in the Mis soula hospital of tvphoid fever. Mr. Ramsey wa9 a very popular freight con ductor on this division at one time. He was only 31 vears of age, and had earned his promotion, commencing as a brake man in the spring of 1889. His father at Kent. Ohio, has been notified of the sad event. Mr. Ramsey's death was verv eudden, as he left Sprague only week ago, complaining of being unwell, and no one thought it would be serious. The remains will be taken east, accom panied by Conductor J. D. Minehan. On Wednesday Mr. Sanford of Filloon Bros., was in Centerville and wanted to come to The Dalles. A livery team was secured and Mr. A. M. Bunnell engaged to drive over. When descending the hill this side of the valley the team ran awav. but was kept in the road and for two miles down grade put in a 2 :40 gait, when they met with an obstruction and Messrs. Sanford and Bunnell were pitched head first into a barbed -wire hedge. The buggy was badly smashed up and both occupants somewhat bruised. Mr. Sanford 's clothing was badly torn un in his gyrations in the barbed wire fence. Of Messrs; Hughes and Bangs, con tractors on the Sault Ste Marie canal enlargement, now here to bid on the cascade canal and locks, the Buffalo Courier of the 24th says: "The time for the completion of the new 800-foot lock on the enlarged Sault Ste Marie canal was placed at November 1, 1893, but it is evident, from the progress now being made, that it will be in readi ness for use several weeks ahead of time. The new lock wiH cost $1,500,000." The Ciiboxicle would be pleased to have Messrs. Hughes & Bangs come out successful in their bid for the cascades canal, as we feel assured that they would complete the entire work within eight months. Messrs. Hugh Chrisman and F. G. Connelly returned last evening from a trip of about 200 miles, which took them through Wamic, Tygh valley, into Sher man county via Sherars bridge, through Grass Valley, to Moro, and back by way of Fultonville and the Des Chutes. They found everything prosperous, and everybody happy and contented, j Grass has started fine all over the coun try, and stock never could look better. The people everywhere are busy. The first day out of The Dalles they met 102 teams loaded with wheat for this city, five loaded with timothy hay, and one Indian with a 4-horse team loaded with hides and pelts. Besides doing them a great deal of good, the trip has consider ably opened their eyes to a full and real izing sense of the situation tbe city and the country bear relatively to each other.

Williams of Seattle, has just completed a very pleasant visit with them at their country home. The Troutdale Champion started off with its second year of publication yes terday, at a pretty square trot. If Bro Baker doesn't slacken his efforts the Chaumion will be able to take a little gall up before the close of volume 3. T. W. Harris, representing the Ore gonian (?) Britannica advertising scheme is operating in The Dalles. If this such a fine thing for the people, why coTer . 5 J with the suspicion of a fake by keeping so still about it, and working the purchaser on the quiet? Come out like men, if it is legitimate business. The Pasco News, speaking of the canal talk v. an open Columbia river, shoots the spot when it says the river is of interest to the entire state and if the Seattle papers would talk it to the peo ple instead - of harpiner away on the canal not being in politics, the state of Washington might soon boast of natural highway for its inland produc tions and at the same time increase its wealth many thousand dollars. "Seattle, LaConner Route, U. S, Mail and Great Northern Express, Seattle, Wash." Ia the striking head lines which adorn a letter of newsy in formation which Mr. Henry Maier is in receipt of from Harry Blanchard. The spirit struck him that day to make some inquiries about his old home, and Mr. Maier is preparing suitable responses to the numerous inquiries.

Adams Lodge No.95,K. of P., and of the initiation of several new members. There were present knights from Gol- dendale, Wasco and The Dalles. Every citizen of Centerville appointed himself a committee of one to make the sojourn ers as pleasant as possible, and brought back with them the feelings that Center ville has a most hospitable class of peo ple.

Hie attending physician informs us that there is but little change if any in the condition of the Woods children down with diphtheria in the Pines. He has no fears of the disease spreading. The oldest one of the Woods children very liable to die. The first item to open the day was the runaway of Butler & Co.'s lumber team The norses took a lively spin, covering the central, eastern and western portions of the city. They stuck well to the for ward wheels, and considering the long run did comparatively no damages Representative Hermann is making' a splendid canvass of Oregon in favor' of republican principles and the election of Harrison and Reid. He is a man of the people and his able and eloquent appeals to the people will have great weight with them. He is to speak in The Dalles to morrow night. Who says Inland Empire spuds are not potatoes this year? A box of them at The Dalles Mercantile Co.'a store to day saya potatoes are a crop in Wasco this year, all other reports to the con trary notwithstanding.

The Review says the young lady who haa consented to pose as the model for the silver statue of "Montana which is to be on exhibition at the worlds fair, Chicago, is a native of Montana, Miss Nora Houser of Deer Lodge. She has a cousin Miss Nora Houser, a native of Multnomah county, Oregon. The Pendleton Tribune tells 'of three democrats there: Bluford Stanton, Henry J. Taylor and John Durham, life long democrats too, who are loud in their denunciation of the endorsement of Nathan Pierce by the democratic ma chine and openly declared that they will not vote for him under anv consideration Mr. A. A. Bonney, of the market, cor ner or Third and Washington streets, has a grave charge to bring against some of The Dalles boys. One of their pranks last night was to run his delivery cart off, and it took considerable time and trouble to find it. These boys are known, and if they persist in such an noyances, must in the end suffer for it. Mr. Bonn returned from Mt. Angel Saturday night. He was absent from The Dalles but twenty hours, and had four or five hours to spare. Having in formation that his son Gnss was ill he went to see him ; but found the young man all right, recovering from a slight indisposition. He speaks very flatter- gly of the attention of the teachers, and the school generally, at Mt. Angel. The peopulists had a rousing demon stration at the Court house Saturday evening. M. V. Kork, one of the noted professional rainbow chasers of Oregon was present, and kept just aa far from Truth as he could possibly, and Weav'er seemingly plausible story. In private conversation at the Umatilla house, he told a friend that he waa having "an awful hard time" educating tbe masses, and then holding them through the cam paign. He ia a peopulist for revenue only. - Five hundred black bass; have been placed in the Wfllamette river above Salem. They- were shipped from Quincy, 111. In spite of all that has been urged against this infraction of the rights of our people, and the' destruc tion of onr Royal Salmon, there appears to be no law to punish the crank, be he high or low, guilty of such indiscretion. Pacific county cranberries are begin ning to bo an important crop. Last year 2,000 barrels were marketed, valued at $16,000, and this season the crop will be much larger. The berries are equal in quality to" the. Cape Cod product. The owners of the marsh live in Oak land, Cal., and have been cultivating the berry in Pacific county for over ten years. You can buy them in The Dalles next fall. ... A 20-foot draft waterway has been proposed between Chicago, Duluth and Buffalo, and Gen Poe has been author ized to let the contracts necessary, the work to begin as soon as the ice breaks up next spring, and be completed with in four years. Thus it may be seen that the largest commercial centers are work ing for open water communication as industriously as we of the Inland Em pire are for an open Columbia river. Frank G. Lenz was telling his "terri ble road" storv in San Fraucisco, one evening last week, of how he pushed his wheel into The Dalles over 100 miles, when he got into a dispute with a web footer who thought he knew better. Press dispatches tell the balance : "Mr. Lenz and his associates started to paint the town a vermilion hue. They suc ceeded in demolishing considerable fur niture in isrunnell s saloon and were making preparations to raid other re sorts near by, but were intercepted by the police and arrested for disorderly conduct.
