"Sweets to. the sweet," and that is why the subscription of the Umatilla Honse to the Ran Francisco Examiner drew a case of wine. While the East is having its second winter, here the balmy breezes flatter down from the Cascades and become sleepy with the odor of locust blossoms. Hon. W. H. Dofur was in the city to day. He reports an army of caterpillars as having taken possession of the coun try about Dufur, and says the alders and willows along the creeks, as well as the orchards, are covered with the pests. Now then, who knows how to destroy the 'pillars? Some of onr exchanges having credited Bro. Michell with a skit that appeared in The Chronicle concerning the bloomers, he gracefully denies the im peacbment and puts the bloomer back on us. As the article was really of our make, we suppose we will have to wear it, whether it fits or not. When the breezy bloomers are the universal go, how will tailors press the ureases into them? I'd. like to know When the baby's head is nodding, and wants to take a nap, bow can mamma lull her darling in a bifurcated lap? When the chickens go a grubbing in the . garden in the spring, how can Bridget 'shoo' the creatures with no skirt to flop or fling. Klamath Falls Express Great Britain refuses to enforce the Behring sea regulation. Now if this country will do the same thing and let the seals be killed off entirely, it will be a good thing. No American outside of the Alaska Commercial company ever got a dollar out of the business and that rotten corporation got it all, and cost the government thousands of dollars too, The quicker the seals are killed off under he circumstances the better. , TnurBday's Daily Two carloads of hogs were ecnt to Troatdale yesterday, and two carloads of sheep will be sent below tonight. The market is getting quite plenti fully supplied with strawberries, but th price is still too high for common folks and printers. The pastor requests every member of the M. E. church to be at prayer meet in tonight. He has a very important measure to present to them at the close of the prayer service. Thirty-five cases of salmon were put np by Herrick yesterday, and another ran will be made tomorrow. Reports from Astoria indicate a considerable im provement in the run of fish, and old fishermen say the fish are fully a month earlier than usual. Senter Payton is certainly immense. As the lightning rod agent last night, he scored another victory and. sent the audience home delighted with the even i tig's entertainment. The support last night was exceptionally good. If you don't see this troupe you will miss a whole lot!) of fun. The play tonight is "Joshua Whitcooib," an old farmer who comes to town to sell bis "punkins" and whose eccentricities will furnish laugh enough to supply as many person! as the hall will hold. Misses Lacy and Vina Payton will appear in their attrac tive specialties. The prices of admission are right with the times, being 35 cents for general admiseion, reserved seats 50 cents, children 25 cents. Friday's Daily. Complete assortment of bee supplies received at E.

Mr. Ad Edgar received a letter from a friend at Umatilla yesterday, stating among other things that 5000 horses bad been sold by parties there to a epmpany 'organized in Seattle for the purpose of canning horse flesh. An account of life and work in the largest powder mills in the world, the da Pont works at Wilmington, Delaware' with the et.ry of historic explosions and with pictures covering all the points of. interest, will appear in McClure's Maga sine for Jane. Mr. O. A .Bowen. state treasurer of Washington, and Mr. Jas. Crawford state fish commissioner, arrived hereon the afternoon train, and will examine some suriiiits belonging to the Winans Bros., near the rapids on the Washing, ton side, with a view of putting up t Salmon hatchery, as provided for by an act of the last legislature. Yesterday while the Regulator was lying at the dock at the Cascades, a fire broke out in the hold of the scow used by the Day Bros, for hauling stone. The Regulator eave the alarm and at once steamed over to the scow and began pumping water into her, and in a few minutes the fire brigade organized by the Day Bros, was on hand with their backets, and the fire was soon under control. It started from the donkey en gine, live coals in some way dropping through the upper deck and starting the fire. . This morning Mr. Hanna coming in from Chenowith creek discovered that someone had scattered saltpeter along the road, with the evident intention of destroying such sheep as should be driven over it. The saltpeter was in unusually large pieces, and Mr. Hanna picked up about two pounds of it. A little inquiry developed the fact that a certain person living down that way bad purchased four pounds of saltpeter yes terday, and there does not seem to be any doubt, owing to the remarkable size of the crystals, but that the pieces picked up by Mr. Hanna were a portion of that lot. The Attachment Not Legal. Judge Bennett started from Prineville the other day, bound for home. Behind his bugury he had a noble horse of the cayose breed, a fiery, snorting, untamed steed with a mane like a Sioux warrior and a tail like a pirate's banner; a true creature of the bunchgrass bills with graceful limbs, supple and muscular body and an fnborn sense' of freedom that well became hie long American pedigree. He led all right for awhile, but the rope around bis neck was to him a token of Blavery and degradation. When the judge undertook to untie the rope that held him for the purpose of giving him a drink, he rose up and smote the judge a mighty smite on the cheek and with his tail in the air spurned the high spots in the prairie with disdainful feet, as he pnBhed the world around be hind him on his way back to his native hills. 'The judge demurred, but bis de murrer was overruled, and owing to the horse refusing to accept service, the case was continued for the term. Had Judge Bennett understood cayuses as well as he does law, be would have had the horse canned before undertaking to' bring tiim in. "Lightning Rod Agent" Tonight. "The Gold King" drew a fairly good house last evening, and should have drawn a much better one. Mr. Payton showed not only that he had genius, but of a very versatile quality, and the sup port was much better than on Monday night. Miss Lucy Payton is a charm ing little lady and a favorite with the audience. . Mr. Curts as "Jack Red mond" was a surprise to those who had seen him in the character of the villain in the play Monday night, taking the part with a great deal of power, and making a much better gentleman than he did a villain. Tonight the play w ill be "The Light ning Rod Agent," a play written for Mr. Payton, and in which he is said to ap pear at his best. Saturday afternoon there will be a matinee, with the old favorite "East Lynne," to which the admission will be 10 and 20 cents. Like the Truth. The Eugene Register, being an ardent stickler for the unadulterated truth, thus chides Editor Ira A. Campbell of the Eugene Guard : "In yesterday's Guard the affable editor of that paper, who is now doing the East, has an entertaining letter, written while be was in Omaha, in which he proves himself a yery interest ing writer. Among other items of news that the editor writes is that he has taken a batl, that's it just as soon as a man gets away from home be is sure to write back most anything to 'stuff' his old friends." These Are Teaehera. The following applicants secured cer tificates at the last examination : First- grade Agnes LeDuc. Second grade Mollie Dunlap, Thos. B. Chastain. Hattie Stirmweis, Nellie Hudson, O. H. Kerns. ," Third grades- Miles Kinney, Angie Phillips, Ada Conard, Alma Taylor, G. A. Brock, Evelyn Newman, Bessie Has tings, Omer Butler and Hattie Allen." , Under the law, only third grade cer tificates can be issued to thoee who have never taught, regardless of their rating in the examination.

An attempt was made yesterday to get Commissioner Blowers up from Hood River, tor the purpose of holding a special meeting of the commissioners' court, but owing to matters over which he had no control he conld not come. The object was to consider the matter of granting aid to the Currant creek road. . Some time ago, the sum of about $1400 was raised by subscription in The Dalles and Antelope, for the purpose of making this road, and at the time it was thought the sum would complete it. Since work was began on it, it has been found that there is a great deal more rock work than was anticipated, and consequently the expense' is largely in creased. The money raised has all been ex pended and now the county will be asked to contribute towards the comple tion of the work. That section of the county pays large snms in taxes, and has never had much of anythingin the shape of local improvements. It has never asked for them until now, and' its re quests should be granted. It would be of immense benefit to tbat section and certainly to the citizens of The Dalles. The completion of the road won d send all the traffic from Mitchell, Waldron and the Upper John Day to The Dalles, and would tend to keep that section in this county. Unless they can have better roads to the county -seat, they will' be compelled to cut loose from Wasco and organize a county of their own, and no one' could blame them for doing so. We understand a special meeting of the commissioners' court will be held in a day or so te consider the matter, and while in common with all other - tax payers we do not like to see the county money expended, yet there are things that are absolute necessaries and the Currant creek road is one of them. Self interest as well as justice to those people who are cut off from the county seat by im passable barriers demands it- 'As it $1400 of good money has been expended and unless the road is completed, is lost AH -tl . ..11 K ." taiKing ana advertising on earth won't is right in price, quality and style.

Good business management would compel the completion of the road to save the money already invested. We hope the commissioners will take this view of the matter, and push the' road to a speedy completion. Forbidden to Putin It. Srme time since Thb Chboniclk pub- list ed a statement that there was noth ing in the law under which th Cascade reservation was created that prevented the pasturing of stock on the reserva tion. The matter has again come np under the ruling of the commissioner, who takes a different view of the mat ter. Recently application was made to Hon. W. R. Ellis for information on the subject, and he forwarded this letter to the commissioner, getting the following in reply : .'- Washington, D. C, Mar. 1, 1895. Hon. W. K. Ellis, House of Kepretenla tires, Washington, V. C; ' Sir: I am in receipt, by reference from the department, of your letter of the 25th ultimo, inquiring whether the regulations of the department will per mit the pasturing of sheep in the Cas cade range forest reserve in Oregon. In reply I have to advise von tbat the herding of sheep is prohibited, it being considered that they are especially in jurious to the herbage and undergrowth I enclose a copv of the forest reserve poster of April 14, 1894, prescribing reg niations for the reservations. Very Respectfully, Euw. A. Bowers, Asst. Com. It will be seen from this that if the ruling of the commissioner is to stand, the sheep industry of Eastern Oregon will get a blacker eye than the re moval, of the tariff gave it. There is a provision in the law tbat the secretaay of the interior may prescribe such regu lations as may be necessary for the care and preservation of government reser vations. We feel certain that could the nature and character of the mountains be . shown to the secretary, he would withdraw the prohibition and allow sheep to be pastured thereon. - We would suggest that every cimmnn- ity get up a petition to the secretary showing the character of the reservation, and that cattle and sheep do not injure it. If this is properly done, we believe it would be successful. S At the Opera House. "Joshua Whitcomb" was on the stage at the opera house last in the per son of Senter Payton. This troupe, in stead of giving us the best first, has put on a better play, with better acting, every night. The characters last night were all well taken, and the large audi ence ho wed its appreciation by hearty applause. The specialties of Lucy and Vina Payton were encored every time, and their character song, illustrating a quarrel between two school girls, was as nest a bit of acting as we have seen in a long time. They ; are both graceful dancers, and have so won on the audi ence tbat their appearance is greeted with a round of applause. , The play tonight will be '-Kathleen Mavourneen," the old-time favorite, followed by the laughable farce "Dodg ing for a Husband." .
