In the county court this morning
Judge Rlakt-ley heard the final nccoiint
of 11. C. liooper, administrator of the
estate of W. C. Tarletou, deceased.
This estate has been in the probate
court for nearly three year.
It is with pain we chronicle the death
of Mr. Chas. Bcrget of Trout Lake
fioin lung fever. Rut five weeks since
Mr. Rerget led Miss Mate Rape of Hood
River to the altar. The young w ife is
prostrated by the blow that hits left her
a widow so early in life.
A new industry is developing at Yaki
ma, that of slocx-fotding. During the
month of November aloue 78 cars of
cattle, about 1,700 bead, were shipped
iu there to be held for a month or six
weeks for fattening npou alfalfa. Tbey
are then reshipped to the sound markets.
The I). P. and A. N. company made a
good beginning on the enlargement of
their wharf yesterday. It i to be five
feet higher tbau formerly, making it
eleveu feet, six Inches above low water
murk. When completed it will have a
storage capacity for about 10,000 sacks of
wheat, besides room enough to accom
modate all other freight requiring stor
age room,
Chris Cunningham, who is iu a posi
tion to know what be Is talking about,
says that all the spring lambs in Idaho
have been contracted for at 12.50 per
bead, to be delivered next spring, and
sheep wliich will thon be two-year-old
are under contract for delivery at 3 per
head. These figures do not indicate any
depression in the sheep-growing Indus
try. In Umatilla county the condition
of atrairs is the same. Grown sheep are
worth from 13.50 upwards, and lambs
command a proportionately high price.
Last night the Union Whist club held
Its usual Wednesday eveuing meeting,
being entertained by Judge and Mrs.
Rrudshaw. The evening passed very
pleasantly at whist. The scores ran
high; Mrs. W. II. Wilson carrying off
the first prise with a score of twenty-six
points ahead. Mr. W. Lord captured
the booby after an exciting contest with
a score of twenty-two points below xero.
The house occupied by Frsnk Huot,
on Mr. J. 11. gherar's 8-Mlle ranch, was
destroyed by fire last night. Mr. and
Mrs. Huot were absent, on visit to
Portland, and the place was in charge of
their son Frank, who says he retired
about 9 :30 last night, and was awakened
soon after by the approach of the flames.
The house and contents were wholly
consumed. Mr. Huot's loss is much
more than the loss of the building,
which it is understood Mr. Ehcrar in
tended removing for a sew structure in
the spring.

j For some timo past tho public have
I been looking for an -adjustable grille,
with shelf attachment, upon which to
place bric-a-brac, tho wholo to be ar
ranged over windows or doorways to re
lieve this portion of a room, which is
usually dependant upon a curtain pole.
The great trouble has always been that
they had to he mado to order, as win
dgws and doors vary in width. Now,
J however, a device is made narrow enough
to go into the narrowest doorway, it is
in two sections, running upon a sliding
top bar. By drawing these pieces apart
they can bo extended to the width of
the door, and the opou place left in the
center of thorn is furnished with a short
drapery. Philadelphia Upholxtnrer.
