delinquent rolls over to the sheriff, with
instructions to force collections by publi
cation and sale, if necessary.
The next show billed for The Dalles is
"Lord Rooney," which will be played
by the Pat Rooney Company next Tues

the eternal fitness of things, the band
will upon that occasion play "Annie
Rooney."
New Orleans has bad another serious
riot, this time the whites attacking the
negroes and killing several of them.
The trouble was caused by negroes tak
ing the places of white men in loading
cotton ships. Mr. Bane, purser of the
English ship, was seriously wounded.
Hon. W. R. Ellis arrived home from
Washington Sunday morning. The
Heppner Gazette eives him a nice little
notice on account of his good work in
getting the bill passed that will permit
those owning railroad lands, who have
not lived upon them, to purchase. The
notice is every bit of it true, and all de
served, and that is where the beauty of
it comes in. .
- The women are all right to vote sure
In Pendleton the election was hot, and
one of the ladies, whose vote was chal
fenged, is out in a card that sounds just
like a man had written it. She says
"The pulpit local editor of the E. O.
voted a thirty-cent ticket, together with
most of the teachers and other good
Christians, who are not yet through
with this matter by any means,
Women should vote, of course they
should.
One of the big white horses belonging
to the Teague Bros., and used by them
in their draying . business, died last
night. He was quite an old animal and
bund, but a true and trustworthy one
that did his work cheerfully and un
flinchingly. .: He never reneged when
caiiea upon tor a pun ; and if then is a
place where the good, though speechless
animals go after death, surely there will
his "manes" be found.
Considerable building will be done
here this spring. Harry Clough let a
contract this morning to A; Anderson
for the erection of a cottage on the
southwest corner of Fourth and Federal
streets. C. J. Crandall is drawing

The storm of Tuesday was followed by
a very sharp cold spell. It was feared
this morning that some damage . had
been done the fruit trees, especially the
peaches ; bnt those who have examined
them say they are all right, they not
being far enough along to be hurt easily,
and the cold being ''dry."
Mr, Martin Donnell will open his
drugstore, next door to the First Na
tional bank, Monday morning. The

doubt Becure a liberal shareof patronage..

and who has been "irresponsible"" ever
since. -
The Um-zoo-ee Whist Club spent last
evening most pleasantly, entertained by
Hal French, who, assisted by his
mother, did the honors of the evening to
perfection. After ten of the regular
games of whist were played, the other
ten were devoted to blind whist, which
caused no end of merriment. Lunch
being served, a grab bag was introduced,
from the contents of which each guest
carried away a souvenir of one of the
most pleasant evenings the club has yet
spent.

From the way plows are reported run
ning from all parts ot tne county, tne

pounds of wool handled here this year.
Hon. F. P. Mays went up to Sherman

latter gentleman being engaged in the
superior court at ttoldendaie. When
Mr. Mays arrived at Moro the most dili
gent inquiry failed to disclose the where
abouts of his client, but did demonstrate
that said client, presumably for a con
sideration, had settled his case outside
of court, and skipped. When the case
was called Mr. Mays slated that be had
come to Moro with instructions to try a
case with a client attached, and that he
therefore could not try a case with the
client decamped instead, and he asked
that he be non-suited.

A Runaway.
Tne team used by the Chinamen in
peddling vegetables ran away shortly
after noon today for about the twentieth
time in the past six months. The
horses started some place, no doubt, but
on Fourth street, near the corner of
Laughlin, the tongue of the wagon
dropped down and ran under the side
walk, bringing the outfit to a sudden
stop and piling the Chinaman out in
such a way that one of his China legs
came near being broken. The damage
was soon repaired, and with one China
man at the lines and brake, and another
with a spring line in charge on the port
side, the outfit started for home.
It is only a question of time until
there is a funeral, with josh papers," var
nished pig and a defunct Chinaman in
the principal roles, unless that team is
taken away from the present owners.
The horses ran as readily as their mas
ters would with Jap after them.
marches ou the plowman with all their
mignt;
The cattle and sheeD on the hills to eraze:
Marches out the small boy with his new Chinese
lute,
That noes turning and twisting in so many
ways.
The weather has been somewhat
varied, giving us a taste of genuine
spring for about a wees ; but the other
day it turned into a small blizzard. The
wind blew and the snow fell in large
flakes for some time and froze quite
hard. It is to be hoped that the fruit
tree buds will not yield to the influence
of the warm weather and come out, as
the cold nights would soon destroy all
prospects for the coming fruit crop.
The hills on all sides are dotted with
the busy farmer and his plow. J. A.
Stevens keeps six employed, while S. B.
Johnston and W. L. Vanderpool each
have four and five at work, all of them
making up for lost time.
The road supervisor has .wisely or
dered the roads improved. With the
assistance of men, horses and scrapers
the almost impassable highway has be
come converted into quite a respectable
way.
The larger portion of Dufur, great and
small, young and old, have succumbed
to the mumps, thinning out the school
to a certain extent.
Sunday night one of nature's phenom
ena was witnessed in the shape of an
eclipse of Luna, who hid her face in
the friendly shadow of Mother Earth
It was quite a sight for one who has a
telescope.
Saturday evening the Rev. Konden, of
the Christian church, preached in the
U. B. church. Monday night the Rev,
Gray, a young missionary, late from
college, of the Lutheran faith, preached
a very interesting sermon for one of his
years. He - anticipates organizing a
Lutheran church at this place.
Dr. G. W. Stryker, of the valley, is a

Mr. Wm. Lathim and his family have
moved to Dufur to live.
It is with pleasure we note the re-ap
pearance of Mrs. Mary Vanderpool on
the street once more.
Mr. Peabody will return from his
quarantined quarters at Summit Ridge
this 'week, where he has profitably
spent his time turning over the fertile
soil behind a four-horse plow. Mr.
Uanneid . savs it there are any more
smallpox patients able to do likewise, he
would like them to come out, as it will
not cost the county anything.
Saturday night a crowd of young peo

evening was passed in various games.

land did not sign the . bill. Senator
Mitchell, writing to Mr. D. J. Cooper of
this city concerning the matter, says :
'This, with fifty-five other bills failed
for want of bis (the president's) signa
ture. He did not veto it, but simply by
his obstinacy in declining to come to the
capitol, to 'sign bills in the last hours of
the session, as. all other presidents have
heretofore done, thus inyolving delay in
passing back - and forth between ' the
capitol, he tailed to pass upon these
fiftv-six: bills. All there is to it, we
will endeavor, as soon as congress meets
in December, to get it through again
Thus slowly, but surely, does the
great president manufacture lasting and
decidedly warm friends for himself.

AdTertlsed Letters.
The famous Pat Rooney Comedy Com
pany is announced to appear at Baldwin
Opera House, Tuesday the 19th, in their
humorous and mirth-provoking tarce
CDmedy, "Lord Rooney." It is tolerably
well understood by the average play
goer that all previous achievements in
the field of farce comedy have been
eclipsed by the originality, brightness
and ' unrestrained humor of "Lord
Rooney." No play of a similar natnre
seen in recent years has furnished
so much palatable food for comment
by the press and general public
as this new dramatic departure, and
its praises have been sung far and wide,
Nor is this to be wondered at by anyone
who has seen the piece. Its unfailing
mirthfullness, brightness of dialogue,
side-splitting situations, catchy, tuneful
music, all ; interpreted "by a moet
singularly well equipped cohort of
eminent comedians,; pretty soubrettes,
graceful dancers - and tuneful singers
combine to render "Lord Roonev"
paragon of :' farce - comedy excellence.

At the Locks.
Mr. S. L. Brooks visited the Locks
yesterday, and from him we learn some
thing of the progress of th work. The
lower gate is about completed, some
11,000 rivets having been put in it, and
as these have to be red hot when put in
place, the job was a large one. The
sections of the guard gate, just above the
gate now finishing, are being swung into
place, and the work of riveting these
will be finished in about three weeks.
The other gates will be put in one after
the other as rapid lv as possible. The
walls outside of the bulkheads at each
end of the canal are well along, and
there will be no difficulty in keeping
them out of the reach of high water,
The Days have leased the big scow be
longing to Mr. Clarke, put derricks on it,
and will use it in transporting rock from
Monahan's and another quarry on this
side of the river near Wyeth.
