Thursday evening a number of the
neighbor of Mr. and Mrs. C. L. Phillips
gathered at their residence to welcome
them back to The Dalles, spending the

at the end of which the guet were in
vited in to an elegant spread, after w hich
a few games of "Maglnty" were played,
and so thoroughly were they enjoyed
that a"Mag!nty" club wan organized.
Since several are under the impression
that the shamrock is a fuur-leafed clover
of no particular variety, we will say that
the botanical name is triulium ripent,
meaning a three-leafed species of the
genus ripen, or smalt white clover. The
popular notion is, that when St. Patrick
was preaching the doctrine of the Trin
ity to the pagan Irish, henedthis plant
bearing three leaves upon one stem, as a
itympol or illustration of the great mys
tery. The Pendleton Tribune says: "The
present year promises to be a most pros
perous season for agriculture in Eastern
Oregon. Our rolling hill lands have re
ceived moisture enough for an excellent
crop of grain, and as the cultivated area
is being nearly doubled year after year,
the season of lt&3 promises to excel all
other for its abundance aud plenty."
The same can be said of this section of
the state. There never hai been as ex
tensive preparations made in any for
mer year a is being done this season.

AN OLD MISSION.
T Ladlea lalt Ita rarnor Mia oa lha
A cad r ray (Iraunda.
Mrs. I:. Wood of Santa Crut, Calif.,
and Mrs. Filinore of Portland, visited
this city yesterday and were the guest
of Mrs. K French. Mrs. Wood is a
cousin of the Rev. Jason Iax, one of the
early M. E. missionarie to Oregon in
l&.'iti. The ladies visited the spot where
one of the first missionary station was
built, out in the western frontier in the
early days. There is now notliing left to
mark it former site but a depression in
the ground a few yard south of the
academy building. Thi was the cellar
of the building, the latter being de
stroyed by fire many years ano. In
point of fact there waa little to be seen,
but while the ladies were looking at it,
imagination reared for itself the nncouth
walls, the lumber of which was cut with
whip-saws. Imagination, too, supplied
the interior with the first early Christian
workers, and the grounds adjoining with
savage idlers, gaudily painted or feather
bedecked, listlessly standing around or
sitting within the friendly shade of the
pioneer mission. Thus will time efface
all traces of a previous order of existence.
Thus have the highest civilizations been
buried in the anuals of the past. Time
will crumble the pyramids to dust, fire
will burn history, as at Alexandria,
eruptions will bnry communities, as at
Poniii and Herculaneum, and who
w ill deny that any of the nations now
existing on the face of the earth will
some day be know n to earth no more?
Kalem Cont;reaatloaaliata,
Rev. P. 8. Knight, for manv years
pastor of the Congregational church in
Salem, has been called to the pastorate
again. He has accepted for a tenn of
ihree months in which time it Is expect
ed that a permanent engagement can be
secured. Mr. Knight was at one time
dismissed from thi pastorate, owing to
a hankering for a more polislied incum
bent, a sort of a religio-society leader.
Front the reiorted developments it is
supjioeed that they were successful in
this respect, though the morality of
some of the lady members may have
suffered by the exchange, the church
loning prestige and membership
remarkably fast. A heroic meaeure was
adopted in the endeavor to regain Knight,
and Christlike humility and forgiveness
finds no more fitting example in the
fact that Mr. Knight will resume hia
pastorate and endeavor to regain w hat
was lout by bis successor's perfidious
conduct.
vt'her la Malfaattoo?
The Walla Walla Statesman shows
the story which has been going the
rounds of the press about the skeletons
of forty-three soldier and their accou
trements being found in "Devil'
Gulch," near "Abiquia," New Mexico,
to be a fake. There is no such place as
Abiquia, and Fort Mary and Espagnola,
places where it is said the company had
figured before they disappeared, have a
like origin in the brain of some imagina
tive newspaper correspondent short of
news. Now if somebody will reveal the
true inwardness of the recent "earth
quake at Umatilla," kindness will be
bestowed on a long-suffering public.

The following is an extract of Bill
Nye' autobiography, "written by him
self:" Edgar Wilson Nye wa born in Maine
in 1850, August 25th, but at two years of
age he took his parent by the band and
telling them that Piscataquis county was
no place for them, be boldly struck out
for St. Croix county, Wisconsin, where
the hardy young pioneer soon made a
home for his parent. The first year he
drove the Indians out of the St. Croix
valley and suggested to the Northwest
ern railroad that it would be a good idea
to build to St. Paul as soon as the com
pany could get a grant which would pay
them two or three times the cost of con
struction. The following year he
adopted trousers and made 175 from
the sale of wolf scalps. Eugene Guard.

Some time ago Colfax Improved her
water work by inaugurating a better
system of operation. The work waw
done under the supervision of Pendleton
engineers. The result was so satisfac
tory that the city authorities will, as
soon as the water work are entirely
completed, dispone of the fire engine
and do away with the 2,500 to f3,0O0
annual expense connected therewith.
This will effect a large saving to the
city, and at the same time protection to
the city against the ravages of fire will
be considerably greater than hereto

THROTTLE AND CAB.
Hi. Cfw the hamplon Liar Engineer
Hailaiu'a llravery.
"Speaking about earthquakes," said
Engineer St. Cyr, as he lighted his clgur
for an after-dinner smoke the other
evening, "you should have been with
mo in San Francinco in the spring of '82.
I was on the police force there at the
time and wa walking up Market street
about 8 o'clock in the evening, w hen all
at onco I heard a deep rumbling noise
like distant thunder. The ground trem
bled and swayed under my feet so vio
lently that I was unable to take a step.
The first shock was closely followed by a
succession of others, and for just fifteen
minutes I stood in one spot, unable to
move out of my track. I couldn't even
fall. Once or twice I started to fall,
when the earth made a lurch in the
other direction and I stood upright
again. '
"The next morning," continued Mr.
St. Cyr, "the city of San Francisco con
tained several hundred acres of real
estate more than was shown on the
map. The bay had receded nearly a
quarter of a mile during tho night, leav
ing every ship In the harbor high and
dry, tied to piling a quarter of a mile
from water. And that wasn't all," con
tinued the champion story teller, as he
made a rush to lock the door. But he
waa too late ; his auditors had all es
caped, leaving him alone to meditate on
the future destiny of liars.
As Thos. Haslam, a Union Pacific
passenger engineer, was passing through
the yards at-Umatilla on the way to
his engine last night about eleven
o'clock, a big, burly tramp stepped from
behind a coal pile, and laying his hand
oq his shoulder, made the customary
demand: "Money, or your life!" Mr.
Haslam, being no coward, made a fero
cious grab at an iron rail with which to
annihilate the highwayman, but finding
it spiked down, took to hia heels and
escaped.
I HE PORTAGE ROAD.
All That Has Been Dune Can Be Quickly
Told.
Many inquiries have been made about
the portage road across the river, what
the status of affairs now ia, and whether
or not it is to be built at all. The
Chuoniclk can inform it reader as to
the former, but no one but Paul Mohr
can tell whether it will be constructed
or not. From the hurrah made about
it during the session of the Salem legis
lature it was supposed by many that it
was to defeat the Raley bill, and really
nothing has occurred to make such peo
ple change their opinion. An office was
engaged, and a civil engineer installed
therein, but as far as any results' are
concerned, it may be assumed that he
was a figure-head, and a sorry one at
that. Paul Mohr himself professes in
difference as to what people may think,
and his brother, who has been a promi
nent figure on our streets for some weeks,
says that Paul is not apt to be prompt,
having telegraphed when he would ar
rive in Seattle on one occasion and not
arriving until three weeks later. Those
who live longest will know the most, but
it would appear to those who are best
informed that, the project is very
chimerical.
As regards the condition on the road
at present, little has been done lately,
and the total expense could be covered
with a small sum. There are three miles
of road already built from Columbus this
way, at the terminal of which is a small
gable-roofed house. For the next five
or six miles is a stretch graded for a
roadbed, and from there to Crate Point
are set slope stakes. This last Is the
only work done recently.
This road might be pushed through
in three weeks, for aught anybody
knows or cares, but as Paul Mohr Is
given credit for some shrewdness, and
as the road, if built, would be of no
benefit whatever unless there was some
boats on the river above the dalles, it is
probable that when the road is to be
built in good earnest, we shall hear
something about some boats being built
on the upper river.
foronado Cleared.
The case ofThc State vs. Emanuel Cor
onado, who was arrested on a charge
preferred by F. W. L. Skibbe, who
charged Corouado with obtaining money
under fulse pretenses, came up before
Justice Schutz this morning; and, on
the motion of District Attorney Wilnon,
was dismissed and Corodado set at lib
erty. It appeared that Coronado had
borrowed $2.00 from Skibbe, showing a
receipt for a check that he had deposited
with French & Co., for collection, and
relyiugon the receipt, Skibbe advanced
the money, and then had Corodado ar
rested. But as It is no crime to have a
genuine receipt from a bank, nor to Ixir-
row (money, tho court did not see his
w ay clear to a committal.
The governor's party arrived at Baker
City Friday morning and were hospi

C'llinatee Compared.
The East Oregonian says: The coun
try in Eastern Oregon west of the Blue
mountains is visited by lens stormy
weuther, has lexs full of snow and ia
milder in temperature than tliut on the
east side, as a general tiling, and fre
quently, when ruin falls In this vicinity
it snows "on the other side of tho
Blues."
The La Grande Chronicle adds :
"And a few weeks further on when
the gentle dews of heaven are moisten
ing the glud earth on this side of the
mountains; when every gathering cloud
and every rustling breeze is a harbin
ger of wealth to the husbandman, and
the elixir of energy and health to hia
family, all that arid region west of the
Blue mountains will be s bake oven.
Through the burning hours of the day,
and during the sweltering watches of tba
night when the radiated heat from rock
and sand makes sleep impossible, the
people will drag themselves with wan
ing energy to the house-top a and pray
for a gust of the south wind that will fill
their lungs with just one cubic Inch of air.
In the meantime the despised vaults of
snow hidden in the depths of the Blue
mountain forests will send purling;
streams of liquid into the valley of the
Grande Ronde, keeping frosh and green
the gardens and fields, while the Uma
tilla desert will be as bare of vegetation
as a 'possum's tail. You blow about yonr
climate, will you, when nine months out
of the year your tongues protrude, dry
and parched, and not moist enough to
licit a postage stamp?"
Joseph V. Dory, of Warsaw, 111., waa
troubled with rheumatism and tried a
number of different remedies, but says
none of them seemed to do him any
good ; but finally he got hold of one
that speedily cured him. He was much
pleased with it, and telt sure that others
similarly afflicted would like to know
what the remedy was that cured him.
He states for the benefit of the public
that it is called Chamberlain's Pain
Balm. For sale by Blakeley St Hough
ton, Druggists.
"The people of this vicinity insist on
having Chamberlain'' Cough Remedy
and do not want any other," says John
V. Bishop, of Portland Mills, Indiana.
That ia right. They know it to be su
perior to any other for colds, and as a
