Saturday's Daily. . Two carloads of hogs' were brought down from Grants last night and at present are in the etock yards. ' Tbey are consigned to the Union Meat Co. at Troutdale. Otto Anderson, a boy at the state re form school, fell on a revolving wood saw Tuesday. His right elbow and the right band between the fore and middle - fingers-were badly cat. His forefinger had to be cat off. . This morning J. A. Mortman, who is employed on a wood saw, got his band too close to the rapidly revolving disk and had it qaite severely lacerated. Dr. Hollieter attended to it, and he is get ting along very nicely. - t Today Harry Clongh pat a new Jock on the door of the vault in the recorder's office, which is a commendable idea for it is not well to have the books and val - liable papers that are contained therein - where they can be approached by every one. Yesterday evening the little daughter of Mr. Slade, the hotel keeper at Grants, . fell down a flight of stairs into the cel lar and injared herself internally. Dr. Hollister was enmmoned, and when he left her this morning she was on a fair way towards recovery. A nninber of the members of the Odd Fellows lodge of this city and their wives went oat to Dufur this afternoon in Ward & Robertson's wagonette, and will this evening visit the lodge at that place. The president of the Rebekahs, . Mrs. Ida Foeter, was one of the number. The little child of Mr. and Mrs. Far ring tOD, of Eugene, was qaite seriously burned at the family residence, Monday. The child was standing in front of the stove, when in some manner its clothing caught fire. Its clothing and bair were burned and its fingers badly blistered. .The president yesterday appointed Zoeth Honser United States marshal for the district of Oregon and Owen Sum mers of Portland appraiser of merchan dise in the district of Willamette. Henry S. Frichett of Missouri wag also appointed superintendent of the coast and goedetic survey. The Epworth League entertainment at the Baldwin last night was a success in every sense of the word. The pro- . gram from beginning to end was well arranged and entertaining. Especially beautiful and appropriate were tbe tab leaux, while the ladies' quartet was un doubtedly one of the finest that we have ever heard in Tbe Dalles. Miss Helen Kelleher, the accomplished and talented lecturer, will be at tbe Con gregational church this evening. She will, speak of California and give a series of interesting views ot our siBter state. No one, whether young or old, should fail to take advantage of this opportu nity of learning so much in such a de lightful manner and at so little coBt. A surprise party was given last night by some of the school children to little Myrtle and Addie Lewis at the residence of Mrs. Parkins, where they are at pres ent staying. About twenty-five of the little ones gathered, and a delightful evenirig was spent in playing games and partaking of refreshments. The two little girls left this morning for Fair : view, where they will visit theii father. The Lutheran bazaar at tbe Vogt opera house next Wednesday and Thurs day will be an attraction of beauty, and the articles for sale will not only be of the greatast variety, but . also of fine quality. The Lutheran ladies propose to sell these articles at the real market ' value, and those wbo patronize them will not only help a good cause by aiding th6 Lutheran ladies in tbe effort to fur nish their church, bat will also get their full money's worth in tbe articles they buy.- An exchange tells the following: A lady died, and while the pall-bearers were conveying ber to her last resting place, by some mishap they etumbled and dropped the corpse. The concussion brought tbe deceased back to life and ehe lived six or seven years and died : again. On the way to the grave tbey passed over the same ground, and when the pall bearers reached the identical spot where the stumble had been made the previous service, the grief-Btricken husband stopped in front of those bear ing the remains of bis lamented wife and said, "Steady boys, steady." The Antelope Herald of yesterday con tains tbe valedictory of its editor, . M. Shutt. This newsy and well-conducted . paper baa changed bands, and in future will be ran by the present city recorder, M. E. Miller, who, being a bright young man, will undoubtedly endeavor to con duct thia-sheet in future in the excellent style in which Mr. Shutt conducted it heretofore. Mr. Shutt intends going to Heppner, where be will establish' a new paper known aa the Heppner Times. While we wish Mr. Miller all success in his position as editor of the Herald, at the same time we wish Brother Shutt an equal amount of success in his new field. TheO. R. A N. has also made up a winter schedule for its water lines on the Columbia between Portland and Astoria which, like the one for rail lines, will go into effei-t Monday. The steamers to operate this winter are tbeR. R.Thonip son. Bailev Gatzert and Lurline. The Thompson and the Lurline will leave Portland at 8:00 p. m., and the Bailey Gatzert at 7 :00 a. m. Leaving Astoria the Thompson and Lnrlineare scheduled for 6:45 a. m., and the Bailey Gatzert for 7 :00 p. m. No Sunday night boat will be run from Portland and no Satur day night boat from Astoria. The tick ets will be interchangeable, though run ning independent. There will be no boat leaving the dock at the foot of Al der street, and no night boat will leave the O. R. & N. dock at Astoria. Monday' Daily. . The music for the coming Circle ball will be furnished by Prof. Birgfeld.' .License to wed was this morning is Bued to Mr. Arthur Edwards - and Miss Ten a Hester. ' ' , Ninety head of cattle were brought up on Ihe boat last evening and are await ing shipment to Arlington'. ' Tbe committee on arrangements for tbe coming Circle ball intend that it shall be the "swell event" of the early win ter. The ladles of the Lutheran church will have a fine bazaar in tbe armory next Wednesday and Thursday, to swhicb they invite everyone. County Commissioner Blowers and bis son, Lawrence, have started a store in Sumpter, Baker county. Sumpter is a live town, with plenty of business, and tbe new firm will, no doubt, do its share of business. , . ' - The Regulator 'and DaTTes City each made a special trip yesterday, carrying down big loads of wheat and other freight. The Dalles City left at 6 o'clock in the morning ana arrived oack at about 10, while tbe Regulator left about 2 o'clock. Lovers of the terpsicborean art will no doubt be pleased to leatn that the la dies of Cedar Circle contemplate giving a bail about tbe middle of November,, and lucky indeed will be the recipients of the invitations to be sent out within the next few days. - Rev. Hetzler, agent for-tbe American Bible Society, occupied the pulpit oi the M. E. church yesterday morning, and in the evening a union bible meeting was held in that church, the Methodists and Congregationalism uniting and listening to an account of the work of tbe Bible society by Rev. Hetzler. The editor of the Morning Democrat of Baker City, in speaking of the fact that that enterprising city had no elec tric lights, spoke enthusiastically of the manner in. which The Dalles was illum inated. Thanks, brother, awfully, but tbe illumination does not begin until the sun comes up, or tbe sly old moon makes a sneak and gets foil. ' A man named Gallagher made a rich strike to Quartz Gulch above the Bo nanza mine, in Baker county, Thursday of last week. The dirt, 300 pounds of it, worked $20 a pound, or nearly 300 to the pan, and Gallagher claims to have several tons of it. A piece of conglom erate - quartz, brecciated, .' weighing twelve pounds,, was worth (230. - ' If the readers of The Chboniclk notice a dearth of local and a paucity of ideas in the paper today, they will un doubtedly lorm the ' opinion that the editor has come borne again ; and such is the fact. Home from the wilds of the Greenhorn mountains, ignorant of the happenings of the world for tbe past month, and consequently unable to furnish mental pabulum, even to a Dalles audience. . Yesterday morning as the O. R. & N. train pulled into Wallala an old gentle man named Miller, the justice of the peace for that precinct, walked in front of the engine and waB killed instantly. Tbe engineer saw him, but supposed he would stop until the train passed. In-, stead, however, seemingly , unconscious of tbe train's approach, he stepped on the track not fifteen feet in front of the engine, and in a second was a corpse. - Those who" attended Miss Kelleher's lecture Saturday night at the Congrega tional church felt that they bad more than received their money's worth. She is a very intere.ting talker, and ber beautifully-colored views of California are well selected and more distinct than any we have ever seen. Tbe attendance was very good, and should Miss Kelle her ever choose to lecture again in this city she will have to secure a larger hall else tbe audience cannot be accommo dated. '-.' The social hop given at tbe Baldwin last Saturday evening was a 'successful, and consequently . an enjoyable event. About thirty couples were present, and made merry until the stroke of twelve warned them that the dance was over, for none cared to break the Sabbath by dancing, and they repaired to their re- spective homes. These dances are be-1 coming quite popular, and a ' more pleasant place to spend a few bours after a week's work could not well be found. It is rumored that the O. R. & N. is to put on two boats to run between tins city and Portland,, and that the service will begin Monday. ' Rumor has it that the boats selected for the run are tbe Potter and the Harvest Queen. This sounds a little fishy for tbe business would not justify either boat going on the route. Tbe service given by the D. P. & A. N- Co. baa always proven satis factory, and there is no reason why more boats should be put on than are at present employed. . .. . Tbe editor owes, and tenders an apol ogy to tbe readers of The Chboniclk for the paucity of news, contained therein today. He has been away for a whole month, and comes back from the mount ains entirely ignorant ot local events He hopes to catch on again in a day or two, and. to again furnish a complete resume of the festive personal and the. gaudy local. . For a whole month he has not had to keep track of Sarah Maria Everly going into Hoop Pole township, or tbe Hon. Fitzsnoode Snitter having visited Celilo on busiueas. His pencil is out of hang, his intelligence under a cloud, so to speak, of it were, etc., but this will soon be all changed as be catches on. '. The bazaar given by tbe Lutheran ladies in the armory this week will be open from 2 to 6 p. m., and during this time no admission will be charged. It will also be open from 7 to 11 in the evening, and on Wednesday evening a fine musical program, interspersed with some good declamations, will be ren dered. , Tbe program is under tbe direc tion of Prof. Wm. Birgfeld, and he will put forth bis best effort. Tbe Dalles or chestra, onder the leadership of Mr. Birgfeld, will render some of their best music, which has been especially pre pared for this occasion, and some ot the leading singers in oar city will partici pate ip making the program complete. Admission 25 cents for adults, and 10 cents for children under 12 years. - No one can afford to misB the program, es pecially at this low price.' . , Tuesday'a Daily. Five carloads of cattle were shipped from tbe Saltmarsb yards 16 Troutdale today, . Mr. W. C, Jennings of Seattle has ac- cepted a position on the Pendleton Tribune. Wasted An experienced cook and housekeeper. Middle-aged lady pre ferred.

' Ned Baldwin, wbo has been' employed in tbe shoe department at A. M. Will iams & Co.'s, is now reading1 law with Dafur & Menefee. ..'..'' Anyone wishing to dispose of a good blooded pup, communicate- with H. E. Ramsaur, Warm Springs Agency, giving description and price. 2-2t Tbe Dalles is one of the beat towns in the state. All it needs is more energy. more money, more light, and more people with more money. " Placer dirt running $20 a pound is the latest from Baker county, and that equals tbe wildest from the .Yukon, You don't have to figure on eating spav ined dog, either. . The talk about putting the .Steamers Potter and Harvest Queen on The Dalles Portland route is evidently visionary. The business would not justify either boat being put in commission, let alone both.' . Yesterday Dr, Eshelman was called to the Johns Mill to repair tbe damage done to Drank rotts leg. Potts was caught between tbe car and a pile of lumber, resulting in tbe fracture of bis right leg between the ankle and the knee. Shedo' M. Garrison, who has been writing on a Eugene newspaper, has been appointed printer for tbe state deaf and dumb school. - Oh ! what a picnic. Just imagine running a newspaper where the readers can only kick with a pencil. An English newspaper asserts that in Eastern Australia 100,000,000 sheep now find sustenance in a region which thirty years ago was a sandy desert.' Tbe sheep gradually tramped the soil into firmness so that it now produces a dense mass of vegetation , . .We acknowledge the receipt, of a pamphlet entitled tbe "Clondike Gold Fields," prepared by that prince of pencil-pushers, Pat Donan. - Donan has never been to Alaska, hence writes di vinely concerning it. We could 'com ment upon that little booklet, as we are somewhat of a prevaricator ourBelf, bat out of regard for Donan we refrain, and the way to reacb the Klondike is to go around Portland, that is a dead moral certainty. Mr. Richard Gorman went to Portland today. The editor of The Chrokiclk feels very kindly towards Dick, who for a whole month has been chasing the festive item for this paper, etc.. . Dick is a genuine hustler, and few news items ever escape him. The sound of tbe blasts pat in by the gang building tbe new Mill Creek bridge makes one think that the days of min ing are not yet over, and yet tbe only result of the blasts ia to blow a hole in the dolamite, elvanite, - basalt chink "stonej etc. .Principally etcetera. - Wasted First-class man to take charge of branch office at The Dalles tor a' Portland loan compauy.

They feed in the stubble fields of Shei man at:d Gilliam counties of evenings and drink at the Colombia river bars. , TLey bleep in. the 6'ame saloons. . - The Baker Democrat speaks ot a strike in the Gallagher mine near Sumpter. There is no Gallagher-, mine, but there is a Gallagher mint on Quartz gulch near Robinsouville, where Gallagher .is taking out $400 to the pau, or, $20 to the pound of dirt. He took into Baker City specimens of cougiommerate worth $30 a pound, better, and more of it, than the Klondike ever produced. . An old bachelor friend diuing with us today remniked that the Klondike had all the puiuts of similarity of marriage explaining hiraaell by saying that those who were the craziest to get in, were tbe wildest to get out. Since we have given "'the matter serious thought, we remember a few married friends of ours, who cheerfully fate tbe prospects of an Arctic winter, and ex press no desire to retdrn to civilization. "None bat tbe brave deserve the fair," and none bat the brave go to the Klon dike. N Liquor to minors. BrownsvilleTimes : During tbe past few weeks Brownsville society ha9 been considerably "torn up" over the escapade of several young ladies and gentlemen who one evening recently engaged in a spree in' which intoxicating liquors figured -quite, pro miscuously, (causing all the shame and trouble aa usual) tbe result of which has been tbe indictment by the grand jury of Charles Smith, one of the teachers in the North Side public school, on the charge of giving liquor to minors. The indictment was made public Wednes day. Mr. Smith evidently received in telligence of what was in store for him, for Wednesday morning he was missing and .bis present whereabouts are un known. - A Four-Foot Ledge. The' ore vein struck in the cross-cut drift on the 600-toot level of the Con. Virginia ' mine,' is four feet wide, is vertical and the ore is fine looking. Tbe work of drilling on this ledge is now going on. . - The finding of this ledge which is be yond question the Virtue vein, se'B at rest any farther speculation as to tbe success of the wcrk that has been carried on at tbe Con. Virginia for the past year, and it can -safely be said that tbe pro moters of this mining enterprise, Messrs. David Keith and Thomas McEwen, have been rewarded for their pluck and sagacity. A large amount of money has been expended to do what has been ac complished and a fortune in the Con. Virginia awaits its owners and will be realized as soon as mill facilities can make It a producer. Baker Democrat. Entertainment at District No. 24.

In Fishing Creek -Valley, near Cross Eoad Church, not far fi'om York, Pa., a young man stood his gun against a itree which he climbed after a. bird's nest.

An eastern Oregon editor says that the proper and only way to get rid of a wood tick that gets on one is to stick a pin in it at the point offering least resistance, and then to heat the pin, which, he says, will cause the tick to pull out his corkscrew and close his ac counts.
