Gilhousun lias juHt returned ftiim Ills ranches and has been gather ing up the petitions that were out for signers for the continuing of the pres ent Urifl" on wool and the extension of the time for purchase of forfeited rail road lands. Mr. Gilhouson was de lighted to find that these petitions were generally signed. Messrs. Hill, Unrgess and Macken brought in a fine lot of beef cattle from Trout creek to Saltmurshe A Co.'s stock yards today, and were loaded at once on cars for the Chicago market. The band, we understand, is part of the purchase made by Messrs. Uand dc Co., who are buying for eastern markets. This lot bills 17 cars, or a train load, and will go through on fast time. Coroner Eastwood is also window dresser in M. T. Nolan's postoflice store, and in this line posseBnes much origin ality. Ills latest effort is arranging a window in imitation of a fair. A grand stund, judges' box and stock stables are the, principal pieces of furniture, and they are peopled with handsome dolls, horses, cows, sheep and even elephants. The eiruct is quite pleasing. lr. Sanders delivered the first of a course of four short lectures before the children of the public school of this city yesterday. Ho tulked most entertainingly for thirty minutes on "Structure and Development of the Teeth." The other three, to be deliv ered at irregular iutervuls, are consecu tively : "Care of the Teetn," "Decay of the Teeth," and "Restoration of the Teeth." A pony free-for-all race, purse f25, for the boys, has not received scarcely an entry yet. What's the matter with the boys? There ought to be twenty-five entries or more for this race. The time for entry has really expired but it will be extended if applications are made soon. The rules are that no pony shall lie more than 13" hands high, and the manner of entry may be learned by ap plying to J. O. Mack.

The overworked sprinkler man gets a vacation frequently nowadays. . The near approach of the rainy season has admonished some of our express men to put covers on their wagons. Messrs. Fargher Bros, will ship three cars of mutton sheep to Troutdale to night from Saltmarshe & Co.'s stock yards. There la a slacking up of the wheat movement today. The threatening stormy weather has had something to do with It. Good health was never more univer sal about the city than nt the present time. There are two doctors in the city council and the worthy mayor especi ally never lets a session go by without Raying something that will help the sanitary conditions. The Junior League will give an enter tainment and pie social on Saturday evening at 7 :30 o'clock at the M. K. church. Proceeds for buying charter and framing the same, also badges for the league. Work on tho rock i-rusher is tempora rily stlKpeudeil until arrangements can lie Made for the construction of a chute to lead (ifn he rock after it is crushed, dispensing with tho hand, heretofore employed for this purpose. Mr. J. C. Coatsworth of 3-Mile 1ms favored us with a very line sample of the I'.iierro I'-uster pears, which, if at the world's fair, would surprise the behold ers. Mr. Coatsworth says he picked .12 others us large from a branch of a tree not over three and a hulf feet long. The Ilerrln coupon in another column on this page is a bona fide ofl'er and those ho wish to take advantage of it should not delay. The Chronicle will vouch for the fulfillment of the contract, viz: a life-size crayon picture free to everyone who presents the crayon be fore Saturday night. Friday'! Dully. "A woiwin'a will's tlie will of Oik!." Ho said the Hpahish priest. The HpanlHrd well the HiMinltirds are Are dlplomuts at least. Mr. Nes. Simonson has located him self opposite I.auer'a fruit store. The Mignonette club will give a whist party, instead of a dance, in Fraternity hall this evening. The Junior Leagne will postpone the entertainment and pie social antil fur ther notice on account of the death of Walter French. The funeral of Walter French will take place from the family residence at 10:30 o'clock tomorrow morning. All friends are invited. John Junk will remove his barber shop from the Fast End to the building formerly occupied as a restaurant next to W. II. Butts' saloon. The merry-go-round arrived on the Regulator lust evening and will try for attraction at the district fair, which takes place on next Tuesday. Mt. Hood is now in Oregon but not of it. It is included in the new national forest reserve. If they don't remove It to the world's fair we can stand it. Lessons in painting are to be given by Miss Holcomb Friduy afternoon from 1 until 3, at room 7, over Pease & Mays' store. Terms are "0 cents per lesson. Last night's rain was so heavy that considerable daniHge was done to grain stacks, those which had been carelessly stacked becoming wet down to the ground. A number of persons availed them selves of Mr. Herrin's coupon offer of yesterday for a free crayon. The coupon will not appear again and the chance is gone after tomorrow. Leslie Butler has made arrangements whereby the pears and apples which have dropped on the ground can he util ized, so that the thrifty orchardist will lose nothing on this score. This city was visited with the heaviest down-pour of ruin last night that ever was known atthis'season of the year. It begun about eight o'clock and continued till after midnight. The rain guage re corded 34' of an inch. Judge A. S. Bennett and Prosecuting Attorney Wilson have returned from circuit court at Moro. In the case of Hembreee far manslaughter, the de fendant was acquitted, and '.. P. Jones, for perjury, was discharged. The flug is at half mast on the High school building in respect to the memory of Walter French, whose death was an nounced yesterday. The expression of grief is very appropriate, as Walter was a prime favorite among his school fellows. Aamold, as a violinist, is a revelation in his particular field of the musical art, as has been demonstrated to hundreds who have had the good fortune to hear his interpretation of Chopin, Wieniawsk and Vienxtemps. St. Joseph Daily News, Oct. Cth, 180. John Doe, that national scapegoat, is accused of a higher crime than usual to day. A trial is being held at Justice Schutz' court this alternoon, wherein John Doe is accused of entering Mrs. Beer-ley's house the night of October 3d and appropriating various articles. The complaining witness is Mr. M. L. Jami son. The F.pwortli League has elected the following officers for the ensuing year : Mr. S. Winzler, president; Mr. E.J. Collins, first vice-president ; Mrs. E. Cross, second vice-president; Mrs. F. Haworth, third vice-president ; Miss L. Ruch, fourth vice-president; W. A. Kirby, secretary ; Miss Edith Randall, treasurer; Miss L. E. Ruch, organist; John I'arrott, chorister. Four horses came up on the bout last night to make entry for the coming fair. Their names and owners were: Taffy 4 years old, owned by Jerry Young, Prine ville; Fanny 2 years, owned by John Throne of Pendleton ; Vigilante and Shakespeare, 2 years old, owned by Mr. Morris of Pendleton. These horses have been on the circuit this year and won some good races. A character in Haselton is "Jack" McCarthy, where he runs the daily paper. Ilia advertising methods are original, as well as effectual. He was anxious to get business from b firm that advertised in his field, and wrote solicit ing an order for his paper. The reply came, "Where does your paper go?" With promptness "Jack" answered, "To North and South America, Eurojie, Asia and Africa ; and is all I can do to keep it from going to h ." He got tho contract. A SHORT SESSION. Anal aj (in at Ileal of liuslnasa Trana Ml'lvrt ly th lly Colllirll. The city council met last tnirtit in reg ular session, a full board 1 i . , y present It was a model meeting for the dispatch of business. Aid. Knft was the last to arrive, and hu was fully adorned in war paint, maintaining his belligerent atti tude during the whole of the evening. It was evident from the first that he in tended to hold the mayor down to strict parliamentary practice, and the mayor accepted the gage of battle, perhaps in excess of the aldermnn's expectations, for his gavel beat almost a tattoo in the rapid disposal of the several points of business as they came up. The first intimation of choler on the part ot the alderman was over the read ing of the communication from the As toria chamber of commerce, stating that whereas the United States had caused to be built a battleship to be named the Oregon in honor of our state, to be launched about Oct. 20th, resolved that the Astoria chamber of commerce com municate with, the boards of trade, city councils and other state organizations to co-operate with the Astoria chamber of commerce to procure necessary funds tor the purchase and presentation of a suitable testimonial, and recommending that each of tbe above-named organiza tions send one delegate to a convention to be held at Portland, Or., October 7th. At the conclusion of the reading th mayor stated that he "did not believe the finances of the city would warrant any such " "I move that the recommendations in the communication be complied with," interrupted Mr. Kreft. The mayor blushed a second from surprise, but quickly recovering, put the question, which was lost, and thence forth his face assumed a set expression and then there were two grim faces till the end of the meeting. The unusual diversion was too much for Joles, and his customary loquacity gave place to studied quietude and an amused ex pression. No action was taken on the Astoria communication. Previous to this two petitions were read, one Irotn Messrs. Bradshaw, Wm. Micbell, et al., praying that the prop erty in the vicinity of Fourth and Fifth and Washington be .better protected from fire. Referred to the proper com mittee. The other petition was from Nellie Waldron and Frank C. Waldron, praying that the city execute a deed for lots 1 and 2, block 3, Trevett's addition. Referred to tlie recorder to make out deed if the statements in petition were found correct. The committee on streets and public property presented a report, recom mending that on account of the present condition of the city treasury, the peti tion for an arc light at the corner of Third and Liberty be not granted ; also that the inclined sidewalk recently built on the bluff be not accepted as a donation to the city, as the city has other steps adequate for the purpose. Report adopted. The committee on health and sewers reported the work on the sewer exten sion completed by C. M. Fouts, who charged 13 cents a foot for 140 lineal feet. The committee on streets and public property reported as to the rock crusher, that it had been located on tbe old brewery grade, workmen hired and that it was now in successful operation. Re port accepted and placed on file. The bills were then read, on motion all those referring to tlie crusher be handed to the finance committee in or der to determine which of them were subject to the county bearing half of the expense. The following were or dered paid : CLAIMS PAID.

Kreft spoke of several matters that should re ceive the attention of the council. One of those was the matter of sidewalks on Eleventh street, number of property owners not having complied with the in structions to build sidewalks. The re corder was instructed to order same to lie built Immediately. Mr. Kreft then said there was a defective sewer on the property of which Mr. Rordcn was agent, and at present occupied by Mr. Lewis, on the corner of Ninth and I'nion. The recorder was instructed to serve iiroer notice looking to an abate ment of the nuisance. Thecity marshal was further instructed to enforce the or. dinance connecting all sewers, the own ers of which had thus far refused to comply with tne notice already given them. It appearing that there are several team licenses unpaid, a motion carried that the marshal at once enforce their collection. The petition of C. E. Bayard and others then came up, praying for the re moval of about ten feet of the west side of Court street, unlawfully fenced, and the removal of the obstructions on the south side of Ninth street, between Union and Court, consisting of a fence in the street adjoining the lots of Thos. McGraw and Mr. Drews. On this prop osition an animated discussion arose be tween Aid. Eshelman of the one part and Aid. Krett and Butts of the other. The former contended that it was a nec cessary improvement, while Mr. Kreft said there was not an open street there. Put to a vote, the petition was granted by 4 to 2. Mr. Story then arose on. behalf of Mr. Mesplie, and stated that the latter'a horse had been impounded and sold for $10 without his knowledge. Mr. Mes plie made a statement, charging that the horse had never left home and must have been driven from the place. In re ply the marshal stated where he had found it on Ninth street, that he had advertised it ten days and notified Mr. Mesplie. The recorder enlightened the council on the charter law providing the manner in trhich a suit for damages shall be brought, and on motion of Aid. Hudson, it wc decided that should Mr. Mesplie consider himself aggrieved, he should proceed before the recorder's court, as provided by the ordinance. Adjourned. The Woodmen's Hoclal. The Woodmen of the World last even ing gave the first of a series of monthly socials which was one of the most thor oughly enjoyable events thus far this season. The program me was impromptu, but contrary to what might have been expected, delightful. There were some 130 guests present, who found pleasure in music, dancing and the choice supper which was prepared. The address of welcome was first by Lt. -Adviser C. IL Brown, followed by the Mandolin club in one of their pleas ing selections. Miss Kreft then gave a recitation, which was well received, fol lowed by some sensible, timely remarks by Mr. D. C. Ireland. His little talk, though brief, was full of substance, and reflected a genial good nature which ever brims to the surface of that well- known Oregonian. The Mandolin club again played a sweet selection, followed by a song by Miss Myrtle Michell. The lady was in excellent voice, and delighted her listeners. The spread was placed on two tables nearly the full length of the hall and was loaded with everything which could tempt the apetite or con tribute to the pleasure of the veriest gestronome. CASCADE NOTES. Mesdames J. G. and I. N. Day are visiting in Portland. There are several cages of scarletina among our little iolks, which is of a mild type. Mrs. G. P. Morgan of this place left this afternoon on steamer Regulator for The Dalles. Mr. and Mrs. Geo. P. Morgan have moved from their residence on the Flat to Gospel Hill. Mr. V. Courtney Lewis of Portland has an official position with the con tractors at the Cascade Locks and has entered, on his duties. Work is progressing on the canal quite satisfactorily. An addition to the force of laborers already at work has been made, and the Cascade Locks is now a busy place. It Required Capital. The telephone line juet completed to Portland cost a quarter of a million dollars, and it is doubtful if it will ever have a rival, other than the ordinary mails aud the telegraph, which will always prohibit any extortionate rates being charged, even if the company so desired. The reason of the great cost is due in part to tbe great amount of bard blasting between this point and Port land, some of the holes costing 10 each to dig. Between Spokane and Portland there are but three stations permanently on the main line, Colfax, Walla Walla and The Dalles, but communication can be had with any town on a branch by means of switches. The poles are of live cedar varying in length from 30 to 65 feet, and are care fully selected so as to admit only the very soundest material. A special point has been made of using tall poles so as to carry the wires clear of trees and other wires. The poles are set in as straight a line as possible and at least six feet in the ground.

I.l.t of I Ilirr Now n Active Training. j A C'huonk i k reporter went up to the fair grounds this inornicg and noticed ' the preparations that are being made for the coming fair. While it is yet sev eral days before the time of ojiening, there are a large number of horsemen with their racers on the grounds. The truck is in excellent condition and the rains have laid the dust all over th grounds. The pool stands yet remain to be put in condition, but all other de tails necessary to a successful meeting are in good order. This morning there were horses continually being exercised on the track. The trotting entries have not yet arrived, there being as yet but one trotter on the grounds; but all the running stables are occupied. Many of the horses are old favorites, while the others are just from the bunchgrass and have yet to run their first race. The pavilion (is in order for the reception of exhibits and the sheds are ready for the fat stock. Those who attend this year may be sure of seeing good races and full entries. The state's premiums are liberal and should induce large exhibits. The pony race offers a chance for the young boys who own cayuses, and the prize is tempting enough to make it worth the while to enter. Through the kindness of the owners of the horses, the follow ing list of running horses now on the grounds and in active training was ob tained. The list includes old timers who have been successful in hard fought contests on the Oregon and Montana circuits : Surretta, 6 years old, by Joe Hocker ; dam Fannie Walker. Owned by J. O. Mack.

A telegram came this morning an nouncing the death of Walter French in Portland. The sympathy of everyone has been with the poor little fellow, who has suffered terribly and borne it man fully, only to find relief in death. Wal ter was born and raised in The Dalles and was in his thirteenth year. Every possible device that skill would offer was done to ease his pain and prolong his life, and now that he is dead it may be a solace to his grief-stricken parents that no human power remained on exerted in his behalf. The amputation of his leg last week was too great a shock for his already wasted system to rally from. The funeral arrangements will be announced later. A Veteran none. James Underbill, of Boyd, died at 9 a. m., Thursday, October 4th, lh93. He was born in Devonshire, Eng., February 2d, 1840, coming with his parents to the United States the following year. He was raised in Boston, where he learned the trade of a wheelwright. He was the second to enlist of tbe 30-day volunteers in the U. S. army under Lincoln, and is a brother of Captain Nimrod Underhill, who was killed in the battle ot Gettys burg July 3d, 1864. He came to The Dalles in March, 1879, and has lived in Wasco county ever since. He leaves a wife and seven children, all of whom, ex cept one son, were present at his bedside at the time of his death. Funeral services will be held at his place Saturday afternoon, burial to take place in the Dufur cemetery. The petitions which have been circu lated throughout the country and signed may be returned to Tiik Ciironki.b office, when they will receive the proper attention.
