The doctor is temporarily located at the European House. . ' The fishermen report the salmon to be coming a little better, but there is nothing like a run.; When the water falls there will undoubtedly be a good catch as the amount reported at Astoria indicates a subsequent run here.. Dr. Ford, a prominent minister and lecturer of Seattle, will lecture at the Methodist church, on Monday evening, June 10th. Subject: "American Con flict ; or who shall educate our youth The admission will be 25 cents. The new wool press in Moody's ware house is in shape and the platform built ready for use.

'1 ' There is' some talk of the Third regi ment holding an, encampment at Hood ' River during one of the summer months. Nothing has been definitely settled how ever. ' . Hood River would be an ideal place to hold anencampment, bat we doubt whether the finances of the state will permit any encampment this year. Such an occasion would, be of great ben efit to the organization. ' J ' : V" -" "" - '--' ? '- f CI . t- The -supreme J court has' ordered the proceedings brought by F. P.

The injured man was taken to the home of Will CuBhing and a physician hurriedly summoned.

' .' - AT ST. MARY'S ACADEMY. Exhibition of Student' Work Held In tn Building---A Fine Exhibit.' A Chronicle reporter visited St. Mary's Academy this afternoon to see the exhibit of the students' work for the past year. The well-arranged building was devoted to specimens of skill in the different branches of knowledge. In the two large rooms on the right of the ball was placed the work that bad been chosen to go on exhibition as the best. Long tables, covered with neatly-written examination papers, told of atten tive, industrious "scholars and hours of study. On the walls were hung paint ing in oil and water colon that bore evi dence of much skill on the part of the artist. Some delicate samples of needle work attracted much attention from the spectators. One of the most interesting portion of the exhibit was the work done by the boys of St. Joseph's school little lads ranging 9 to 12 years of age. The speci mens were all very creditable, and showed a talent that would have done credit to persons of maturer age. The boys had been given subjects upon which tbey were to write compositions; bat, anlike most compositions; the sub jects were required to be illustrated. The reporter recognized a well-drawn likeness of Father Bronsgeest, executed by a lad of eleven years. A picture of Pope Pius IX was also very creditable to the young "artists. Some of the com positions were written on such subjects as the new cruisers of our government, and on each paper was drawn a picture of the particular subject about which the paper was written. " Among the exhibits particularly no ticed were a crayon of two dogs' heads, by Miss Katie Quaid and some drawn fancy work by Miss Cassie Thorbourn. The pictures in oil by Mrs. Baldwin in cluded the "Cascade in Alps, "The Three Sisters" and several other very pretty paintaings. Miss Downing from Condon, Gilliam county, bad a picture of Castle Rock and one also of Mt. Adams, which showed much skill and training on the part of the young artist. Upon a table were 'some carefully pre pared Herbariums by Alma Scbanno, Agnes LeDuc, Cassie Thorbourri and Ada Smith. The flowers were arranged with much taste. Especially fine were the botanical specimens. ' Over one hun dred and thirty had been prepared, bat the limited room allowed only a small number to be shown. The different pieces will be taken to Montreal, Canada, for exhibition as soon as the commence, ment exercises are over. lbe examination papers in all the different subjects which the students are taught, were placed on exhibition They were wonderfully neat. One thing that especially commended itself was the requiring of the different subjects to be illustrated. ' In physiology one of the questions was upon the structure of the ear and on each paper was drawn a pic ture of the ear, showing on the part of the students a perfect comprehension of what they bad studied. In other portions of the room were exhibitions of pen drawing, painting on tapestry,' Roman embroidery, point lace, crochet work and studies from nature. - Some papers in the theoretical ' music - showed how thorough a course the student in that art must take. - ' . The St. Mary's school has had a very prosperous year, considering the bard times, and th. outlook is very bright. In the girls' department there have been twenty-eight boarders, and large num. bers of day scholars, while in the St. Joseph school for boys there have been over fifty in attendance. At the com mencement exercises, which , wilt '"oc cur on June 14th, three young ladies will graduate. The prospective ones are Misses Alma- Scbanno, Cassie . Tbor bonrne and Agnes Le Due. A visit to this school, which is a pride and ornament to. the city, will well re-. pay any one who will go either tomor row afternoon or Mondav. PERSONAL MENTION.
