Pity we can't live in a country where
thev brag about hail the size of beVs
eggs. The reporter must therefore say :
A light shower of -hail as large as sal
moo eggs occurred this morning. Not a

hurt in any way.

The Chinese lily which has filled with
perfume so many of our residences is
just going out of bloom, and many ladies
will want to know what to do with
with them. Mrs. A. J. Goodman, of In
dependence, writing to the West Side,
who is an authority on flower culture
. in that section, says to plant them in
the garden and the bulbs will multiply,
and two years from now the new bulbs
will bloom Thus our flower-lovers can
have their own bulbs, without buying
tbem.
An unknown individual, but pretty
well dressed and carrying a bundle, was
observed late last night to deposit his
bundle on the sidewalk, go to the center
of the street and deliberately roll in the
mud. He then picked up the bundle
and continued in his original direction.
Only one explanation of the singular ac
tion, can thus far be conjectured. He
had "dropped his roll" at some gambling
resort, and bad a story concocted to tell
bis better half about two masked men, a
terrible struggle, a d. s. thud, and un
consciousness, which was designed to
make each particular hair stand on end
of the woman who will admire his manly
fight against odds by which he lost his
filthly lucre, but saved his precious life.

A party of young people from Dalles
Lodge, No. 2. 1. O. G. Tl, by invitation,
visited Frazier Lodge on 3-Mile Satur
day evening. Ere their return the con
gealed element was falling, and the
spring-like days of .February had
emerged into the windy days of March.
Notwithstanding it was an enjoyable
event. This refreshing ride, the bracing
air of Eastern Oregon will always be
pleasantly remembered by the. mem
bers of the party.
March came in like a lion, as is its
ancient habit. Fair February bad
hardly bidden as an eternal farewell
when the mercury commence! to lower,
snow began falling, accompanied by a
cold, drear wind, and Sunday morning,
March 1st. presented a' very dismal ap
pearance. But there are no surprises.
It was a regulation February, and March
opens out also in its time-bonored man
ner. Dr. Kantner of Salem will deliver a
lecture tomorrow evening at the Congre
gational church. Dr. Kantner has a
well-earned reputation for eloquence
and liia address delivered last summer
in The Dalles caused much favorable
comment. His subject tomorrow even
ing will be "Move On." The students
of the high school are invited to attend
this lecture free of charge. Remember
the time and place, tomorrow evening at;
the Congregational church,
Last Saturday the Elks lodge, whicb
has been meeting at the Cascades, was
transferred to The Dalles and from now
on will hold its sessions regularly in this
city. At the meeting Saturday evening
three well-known young men joined the
order, and the applications of several
more were received. There are now
seventy-one names on the membership
roll. A committee has been appointed
to secure a hall, it being probable that
the Elks will occupy, with the Knights
of. Pythias, the hall which will be fitted
for tbem in thehew Vogt block. The
Elks will be a factor in the social life of
The Dalles, and . members and their
friends can expect some good entertain
ment from thisol)y order.'

The present spell of cold weather is

March in Portland. Skating is good
there at the present time.
Work is to be resumed immediately
on the Wapinitia ditch, the contract
having been let for its. completion. A
force of engineers and men will go to
work at once.
The thermometer reached its lowest
Sunday night, when it registered 16 de
grees. Last night the mercury fell to 18
degrees, since which time tbe weather
has been gradually moderating.
Miss Moore has arranged to give in

Gentlemen, 50 cents; ladies 25.
Dr. Kantner will lecture this evening
at tbe Congregational church, tbe title
of the lecture being '.'Move On." This
is another of the series in the winter
course, of which there wiH be but one
more. Dr. Kantner has a very effective
style of oratory and is a most attractive
speaker. His address should be greeted
by a full house. ' ' x
A gentleman who came up from Port-"
land today says that some hydraulic
pumps are being made in the machine J
shops there for use in opening the gates
at the lockB, that it will, take two
months to complete tbem, and that no
hurry is' manifested in finishing the
work. If this ' is true it is a possible
straw which shows which way the wind

The reports of the treasurer und super
intendent were then read and placed on
file. The treasurer's report showed a
balance on hand of $13,170.
Mr. Mack reported on the lots belong
ing to the city where the old electric
light plant used to be, which had
been leaeed for 20 years to them. The
company had no further use for the lots
and since then the building has been
fitted up for a church, the directors of
which desire to purchase them. On mo
tion of Commissioner Nielsen, the com
missioners were resolved in a committee
of the whole to appraise these lots and
others belonging to tbe city m that
neighborhood ovw a hundred an -body
the. ,ecomraendftMon8 ,n
o present w the city council for ap
proval, further recommending that the
city sell the lots at auction. Monday,
25r(.'h 2d at 9 o'clock was fixed for mak
ing the appraisement.
Superintendent Norman said that tbe
lots where the Lutheran church stands
were wanted by the church, and these
were included in the investigation.
At this juncture Mr. Judd Fish, who
was present, requested the attention of I
the commissioners to the matter of the
water supply at the Umatilla House.
He desired that a, stated, amount be
charged them monthly, and that they be
charged pro rata for any jxcess of that
amount. Mr. August Buchler was also
present on a like errand. A long discus
sion ensued, resulting in a motion by
Peters being "carried that the superin
tendent confer with Mr. Fish and Mr.
Buchler with the end in view of making
a satisfactory rate to all parties con
cerned and report at next meeting.
A motion by Nielsen was carried that
meters be put in at the Columbia Pack
ing Co. and the Wasco warehouse.
Mr. Norman brought a new subject to
the attention of the commissioners. He
said he had been talking to a number of
citizens on the enhject . of irrigating j
lawns. He thought that a high pressure
could always he had by a system of irn
gating lawns under the bluff one -day
and above the bluff the next. He had
talked with over a hundred different
ones and they all expressed their wil
lingness to follow this rule. He called
to mind that last summer the force was
so weak during the hot weather that
little or no water could be had on the
hill, and that it was dangerous to allow
the preesnre to become so low on ac
count of fire. No action was taken at
this meeting.
Adjourned. .
sentation at a meeting next fall.
After some further debate Mr. Bay
ard's motion was carried and the meet
ing adjourned. ' - - '

The salute of the flag at tbe high
school Friday afternoon, called out a
number of ladies to witness tbe beautiful
ceremony. Since the presentation of a
flag to each school in The Dalles, the
beautiful rite has been faithfully per
formed once every week. Over 100 pu
pils participated, and the eight of their
bright, enthusiastic ; faces all turned
toward "Old Glory" would have aroused
to patriotic fervor even "a man without
a conn try." The music and recitations
that followed were above the average
but that was not surprising,, as it would
be almost impossible for' pupils taught
to salute daily the dear old flag to be
otherwise than bright, cultured and
well mannered. Profs. Gavin, Stratton
and Mies Hill, who preside over this de
partment, have certainly fulfilled their
duties in a careful, painstaking manner
and deserve high commendation
Visitors would be well repaid by visiting
the schools frequently, as the entertain
ment is far superior to many tffat are
witnessed by full bouses at 50 cents per
capita. Mrs. Mary Scott Myers, de
partment president of the W. R. C, to
whose untiring zeal we are indebted for
the introduction of the flag ealute into
our schools, was present and expressed
unqualified pleasure at the happy
result. . - -

was received and placed on file,
Tbe chairman' then stated the object for
which the meeting was called and stated
that the directors did not ' wish to go

The Goldendata bapers are exhilarated
over the recent cold discoveries near
that city. The Republican believes they
area part of the Mt. Helens range, and
says: '
That part of Skamania county that
lies between Mt. Adams and Mt. St.
Helens is the coming field for the opera
tion of the St. Helens Gold Mining Co,
recently incorporated with a capitaliza
tion of $4,000,000 under the laws of Wis
consin. lnis great nnd of ore assays as
high $800 per ton. It was discovered in
1894 and the investigation has been
completed to the satisfaction of Million
aire Pabst, the Milwaukee brewer, Oscar
V. Deuster and other prominent men of
the beer city, who have all taken a part
of the capitalization. There has been
taken and patented to the syndicate 152
claims. It is said extensive stamp mills
and complete camp outfits will be at tbe
mines by April 15th. Work will be
pushed at once as soon as practicable,
The find is located at an elevation of
15,000 feet above the sea level. Since it
is well known to the man who has been
to the Mt. Adams section thattbe prom
ising gold field is not many miles from
the county - line of Klickitat and Ska
mania, and for this reason many be
lieve the same prospect extends into
Klickitat. It has been rumored that the
ledge and mountain range north of Gol-
dendale are one, and the same as that
of St. Helens.
Mr. Joseph Proulx, living on Govern

razor. Mr. Isbell said he purchased a
razor the other day of a'mnn on tbe
street. He waB requested to show it and
produced tbe case, the razor being at a
barber shop for repairs. Tbe case was
at once recognized by Mr. Proulx as his
own. Mr. Darniele was made acquainted
with the facte, and ransacked his feed
yard, finding the balance of tbe stuff
hidden in a secret place. The officers
were then summoned, to whom was giv

Final practicability bi using the cathode ray

Mr. McArthur has just received from
the East the glass tube of conical sbaper
which serves to cross tbe rays, but lacks
a certain solution of cyanide of mercury,
which he. will procure in Portland, and
will go there for that purpose in tho
morning. On bis return a photography

Tbe cathode ray is not the new dis
covery. Its peculiar colors were ex
hibited in Pease & Mays' window during;
the holidays in a brilliant electrical dis
play of crosses, wreaths and revolving;
spiral effect8,whicb made a very at
tractive sight. The discovery which has
attracted the attention of the entire
scientific world consists in its applica
tion to photography by which tbe in
terior of wood, metal, the human frame.
etc., can be revealed, and which dis
covery was made but a few weeks ago.
Sixteen inches of wood have been photo
graphed through by the use of cathode
rays. Edison is at present working on
making the ray of the arc light perform
the same work, and if successful, better
results than ever will be attained, be
cause tbe arc produces a pure white
light, whereas colors may produce de
ceptions, which if even inmaterial are
unsatisfactory.
The new diecovery has greatly inter
ested Messrs. McArthur and' Herrin,
whose minds, ever seeking both the
attainable and the unattainable, are in a
a chronic state of inquiry. Fpr instance
Mr. Herrin is curious to know how the
inside of his head looks and proposes to
have that photograped the first thing.
He will doubtless exhibit so mo of the
photographs taken in his show window
when they are ready.

Mr. Shelley's Troubles.
Last Saturday a lady from Dufur went
in one of our leading grocery stores with
a basket of eggs for sale, tbe polite clerk
BBkmg her the price per dozen, she said
7 2 5 cents. Being very busy at the
time the store full of customers reiv
ing on her honesty, he asked how many
dozen have you in the basket? She re
plied: "If I take tbe eggs out of the
basket, two at a- time, I have one egg
left. If I take them out three at a time
I have one egg left. If I take them out
four at a time I have one left. If I take
them out five at a time I have one lelt.
If I take tbem out six at a time I have
one left, but if I take tbem out seven at
a time I have none left in the basket."
On saying this she left tbe store, re
marking she would be back later for
the money and basket.
Now if you want to see this clerk leave

The funeral services of Grace Will
iams, held this morning in the Congre
gational church, were attended by a
large number of sympathizing friends.
Loving hands had decorated the church
with last tributes, while expressions ot
sorrow were manifest In the beautiful
flowers which hid the casket from view.
The eervices .were brief, but unusually
affecting. The choir sang the lovely
anthem "One Sweetly Solemn Thought,"
after which Mr. Curtis made some
touching remarks, moat fitted to the
moment. It were more appropriate, he
said, if he C3uld take his place among
the mourners and listen to words of sym
pathy spoken by another. In tender
words he referred to the beautiful life
which had just closed for earth, and
with the earnestness of belief 'expressed
the consolations and hopes for one who
had died as Grace Williams did, full of
trust, and believing in tbe promises
made to her. . Mr. Curtis' words, while
moving all hearts o sympathy, were
laden with the comfort that comes not
from.eartbly things. .
Seldom have so many expressions of
sorrow been made, or so much sympathy
shown as was seen at the funeral today.
In the church were those who bad
known the dead girl from babyhood ;
tho'e who were her schoolmates in the
happy days ot childhood, and those who
knew her in her maturer years and
loved her for her sweet disposition and
nnselfish spirit. Tli pallbearers were
her classmates in the old Academy days.
The alumni attended in a body.
The floral tributes were profuse,'
