THE DALLES WEEKLY CHRONICLE, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 13, i89& The Weekly Ghroniele. I-IIK DALLES, ORKGON Clubbing List. The Chbonicle, which gives the news twice a week, has made arrangements to club with the following publications, and offers two papers one year for little more than the price of one : " .

There remains hut eleven -working days for the legislature. The sound of a blast is heard occasion ally and is caused by the obstreperous basaltic bowlders getting in the way of the mortises for the telephone poles. . At the horticultural meeting at Port' land yesterday Hon. . L. Smith of Hood River was chosen president of the society for the ensuing year. The selec- tion is an excellent one. Nineteen cases were brought in Jus tice Davis' court today by Attorney Rid dell, which breaks the record in that line. The suits are brought to recover amounts due, or claimed to be due, on lot of insurance notes. The deadlock at Salem continues. The vote today shows no change as far as Dolph is concerned. It was as fol lows : Dolph 30, Williams 9, Lowell 8, Lord 5, Weatherford 4, Hare 10. Twenty-four members were paired. In printing the list of those who took part in organizing the lodge of Eastern Star here, we inadvertantly overlooked the name of Mrs. Emily McLean, Past Worthy Matron of Portland. The meet ings will be on Tuesdays instead of Thursdays. A man working lor Winans isros., on the other side of the river, was caught by a rolling timber this morning and one of his feet was pretty badly bruised. It was at first thought to be mashed, but a close examination showed that no bones were broken. Committees of the A. O. U. W. and Woodman lodges are hard at work ar ranging for the masquerade which takes place on the 22d. This gives promise of being one of the best affairs of the kind ever given here, and it is quite certain that the number of maskers will be larger than on any previous occasion. Hon. W. H. Biggs, of the land office, left for Portland this morning. From his pleasant smile and mysterious man ner, the reporter is of the opinion that he' was on his way to Portland at the special instance and request of Senator Corbett, and will mingle with the igno ble crowd from Salem tonight at that famous supper. He may explain to Corbett all about that Cpon not coming. The amount of railroad indemnity lands in Wasco, Sherman and Gilliam counties thrown open to settlement un der the ruling of the U. S. land commis sioner, Dec. 12th, which ruling is now made public, amounts to 174,857 acres, and as these were tracts selected by the railroad company in 1885, most of them are first class farming lands. They are open to settlement under the homestead act. The greatest storm that has visited the United States for years has been raging in the country east of the Rockies for several days. Snow fell in Florida for the first time on record and at Tampa the thermometer registered 20 degrees above zero. The orange trees are killed and the damage is immense. On this side of the mountains the weather is beautiful. The Pacific coast knocks the persimmon every time for climate. A man named Harry Reese, who is in the employ of the Seufert Bros., met with an accident this morning, resulting in a bad fracture of his right leg midway between the knee and ankle. He was working on a crib for a fishwheel and losing his balance jumped to save him self. The distance was only about 10 feet, but it was sufficient. Dr. Logan reduced the fracture, and Mr. Theodore ' Seufert will take the unfortunate man to St. Vincent's hospital at Portland. - Monday's Daily." The jurors attending court today were excused until tomorrow at 10 o'clock. . The revival meetings at the M. E. church will be continued during the week. All are invited to attend. The Baptist church has purchased the old electric light building.- It will lie turned around, remodeled and used for a church building. Bunco Kelley was 'up tor sentence . Saturday before Judge Stephens of Portland,-and was sent to the penitentiary for life. - The weather bureau gives the indica - tion for tomorrow as colder and enow. It has been snowing in the extreme eastern part of the state all day and part of yesterday. Circuit court met this morning, and the following gentlemen were selected to serve as a grand jury: John Marden, Chas. Fraley, M. Sellick, E. A. Griffin, "W. F. Norval, Amos Root and W. J. Davidson.' The court appointed Mr. Marden foreman. After charging the grand jury, the balance of the day was taken up in hearing demurrers, motions, etc. J. Doherty and James Harper were appointed court bailiffs and J. Blakeney, sr., grand jury bailiff. ' The vote at Salem today is as follows Dolph 36, Hare 10, Williams 9, Wea therford 7, Lowell 10, Lord 6, and twelve members were paired. . This leaves Dolph his usual 42. At the regular annual meeting of Mt. Hood hose company, No. 4, held in this city last Saturday evening, the follow insr officers were unanimously elected for the ensuing year : President, C L Phillips (re-elected); foreman, Julius Wiley: first asst. foreman; E F Sharp second asst. foreman, W R Brown treasurer.

Smith Bros, will give a Valentine party Thursday evening at Wingate's hall. Class for children Saturday after noon, from 1 to 3 o'clock. Do not neglect to see the stereopticon views illustrating that grandest of mod ern romances, Ben-Hur, at the Congre gational church tonight. The Regulator will make a special trip to the Cascades Monday, taking- freight and paaseagers to that point. Sfre will begin her regular trips Wednesday. A lot of witnesses came up from Hood River this afternoon; which indicates that the grand jury are inquiring into the case of Broadbent, held over from last term. The big poles for the new telephone line are being prft in place and a large gang of men employed at the work. It will be but a short time until the line is ready tor operation. The case of the State against Guy Southwell, indicted for shooting a horse belonging to an Indian, is on trial in the circuit court. Most of the morning was spent in selecting a jury. The board of fire delegates will 'meet at the council chambers this evening at 8 o'clock, for the purpose of electing officers, and the transaction of such other business as may be necessary in the interest of the department. Since the San Francisco Examiner set the pace, every little newspaper in the country is getting the ladies of the vicinity to edit one issue of the paper. The last viilage sheet to indulge in this bit of laudation is the Tacoma News. The arriyal' of the steamer La Gas- cogne in JNew York, nearly ten days overdue, has caused great rejoicing. Her long delay was caused by a broken piston", and unusually heavy weather. The owners of the vessel claimed all the the time that she was all right, and as serted her ability to stand any sea. .It commenced snowing about 7 o'clock this morning, and for an hour the fleecy came down as though determined to give us another two or three feet of it, but at the end of that time it let up. It is getting pretty late in the season for much of a snow storm, or at least for it to remain any length of time should it come. We met J. B. Crossen this morning wandering along disconsolately, looking for a cat, and mourning because he found him not. The lost Thomas is dressed in striped yellow and white suit, the stripes running at right angles' to the longer axis of the feline, like those of a zebra. Up to the time of going to press. we are sorry to state that we cannot truthfully say "And the cat came back." The vote at Salem is unchanged, and as follows : Dolph 39, Williams 11, Weatherford 7, Hare 10, Lowell 10, Lord Six members paired. There are only nine more legislative days, so that there is going to be a settlement of the question in the very near future. Dolph is defeated, and the question now arises as to who is the most available man on whom all factions, or enough to elect, can agree. The situation now means either an outside man or one senator for the next two years. , It is now the last call for delinquent taxes, and in a short time the property on which taxes are delinquent will be advertised and sold, and a large bill of costs will be added. The county court is determined to collect all delinquent taxes and gives notice that no further time will be giveni' The greatest leni ency on the part of those charged with the collection of the taxes has been ex tended, ' and now forbearance ceases. Just recollect that it is either put up at once or pay the extra costs. Real Estate Transactions.

The opening exercises of the institute were held in the M. i. church, which was well filled with the citizens of Dufur and the surrounding country. The Dufur school enlivened this and subse quent sessions with excellent instru mental and vocal music. Prof. A. Frazier welcomed the audience by call ing attention to the importance of edu cational work, and showing the necessity of so educating boys and girls that the next generation will stand on a higher plane, both in intelligence and morals. Superintendent Shelley responded in a short address expressing his pleasure in meeting with such hospitable and appre ciative people as the people of Dufur. He heartily endorsed the remarks of Prof. Frazier. The program, as printed, was carried out. The day sessions were held in the schoolhouae, and were well attended on Friday. The exercises were all good, and under the skillful management of Mr. Shelley, many good points were de veloped, and much interest aroused. The discussions of. the subject "Some Necessary Requisites to the Growth of Wasco County Schools," brought out the following points : Teachers need to know more of mental development ; the best teachers at the beginning; the terms are too short in mauy districts ; there are too many third grade teachers ; a greater and better supply of apparatus and furniture; unanimity among the people of the districts; better school government; more interest on the part of directors and parents ; better govern ment of the children at home ; parents should not speak against the teacher to their children or in their presence ; more attention should be given to moral train ing ; there should be some well defined plan of Work in which everything tends to a definite end. Many helpful thiags were said, and taken all in all, the in stitute-was a success. The discussion of the importance the public schools to the public showed that the public school is firmly implanted in the esteem and affections of the people. ' ' P. P. TJ. Circuit Court Docket.

That no minor under the age of 16 years shall go abroad upon or wander about the streets of Dalles City after the hour of 9 o'clock at night, un less such minor shall be accompanied by his or her parent or guardian, or unless such minor shall have necessary busi ness upon such street or streets; and any minor who shall viglate, the pro visions of this ordinance shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon con viction before, the recorder, shall be fined not less than $5 nor more than $10, or imprisonment in the city jail not less than three davs nor more than five. This ordinance has been somewhat of a dead letter, but the city council has in structed the officers to enforce it strictly. DIED. At Antelope, Or., on Tuesday after noon, Feb. 5, 1895, Miss Gertrude Rans- dell, aged 17 years, 1. month and 3 days. Miss RanBdell's old home is near Needy, Clackamas county, and she had been in very delicate health for the past 18 months. Thinking it would be benefi cial to her health she came up last March to live with her sister, Mrs. Geo. Patter son, at this place. The change of climate did not hav the desired effect, however, and she became gradually weaker and more feeble. Finally consumption set in, and although the Dest meaicai aid was procured and the kindest treatment rendered her by her sister, brother and others, it proved of no avail, and-death soon claimed her as his own.- Mrs. Pat terson, Vern Ransdell, S.

This was her last request that her body be buried near her old home. Antelope Herald. Record Tour Deeds. I desire to call attention to the fact that a considerable amount of real es tate, both city and country, is not on record in the name of the present owners. Hill's Code, page 1364, section 3027, provides that "Every conveyance of real property within the state here after made, which shall not be recorded as provided in this title within five days thereafter shall be void against any sub sequent purchaser in good faith and for a valuable consideration of the same real property, or any portion thereof. whose conveyance shall be first duly re corded. Now, since the county court has or dered a record of present owners to be made, it seemB to me that aside from the consideration of litigation and annoy ance which is likely to arise, every owner ought to have some interest in having his property properly recorded and correctly listed. Of course every body understands that that the primary object in having a present ownership record is to assist the assessor in making up the assessment roll each year, and it goes without saying that unless this record shows present ownership it will confuse raiher than assist him.' My contract requires me to show the volume and page where each person's title is recorded, together with-the date and consideration named in .the convey ance. Therefore all I can do is to show the last recorded deed to each piece of property, although I may know from other sources that it belongs to some other person. I would therefore suggest that all per sons owning any real property in the county, look carefully over their deeds and make sure that all have been re corded as required by law, and thus in sure a correct listing of it on the present owner record, which is now being pre pared. J. M. Huntington. The Dalles, Feb 11, 1895. : The Flouring Mill. W. E. Chamberlain arrived in Hood River during the week. He has not giv en up the idea of locating his flouring mill here, and has been proepecting for a site on F. H. Button's land on the east side of Hood River. To get a mill site on Button's place it will be necessary to tunnel through the bluff and strike the river far enough above the county bridge to get a good fall of water from the river. Wednesday, assisted by sev eral of oar citizens, he made a survey of the proposed tunnel and found it prac ticable. If the cost of the tunnel is not too much, Mr. Chamberlain will go ahead with the work and build his mill. Glacier. J To Bridge the Columbia. Among the list of bills mentioned by the'Sun as being acted upon yesterday we note the following: "McGreer's houee bill incorporating Dalles City and legalizing certain in debtedness heretofore incurred, and au thorizing the city to sell - bonds to build a bridge across the Columbia, was read a third time and passed." , Who-knows anything about the bridge bonds?

A cordial invitation is extended to all. Admission, 15 cents. ' t Ten days loss of time on account of sickness and a doctor bill to pay, is any thing but pleasant for a man of a family to contemplate, whether he is a laborer, mechanic, merchant or publisher. Jas. O. Jones, publisher of the Leader, Mexia, Texas, was sick in bed for ten days with the grip during its prevalence a year or two ago. Later in the season be had a second attack. He says: "in the latter case I used Chamberlain's Cough Remedy with considerable suc cess, I think, only being in bed a little over two days. The second attack I am satisfied would have been equally as bad as the first but for the use of this rem edy." It should be borne in mind that the grip is much the same as a very severe cold and requires preciselj the same treatment. When you wish to cure a cold quicklv and effectually give this remedy a trial. 50 cent bottles for sale by Blakeley & Houghton Druggists. Little Dick Mamma was readin" something about a heroine.
