Good lambings are reported from all the ranges in Gilliam county. A con servative estimate place's the general average of lan.bs saved in Gillam county at 80 per cent. At present values, this means a great addition to the county's wealth. Yesterday afternoon the boys ol Com pany G lined up iu front of the Com mercial Clob and bad their pictures taken. ' If tie boy e go through to the front those pictures may prove valuable, for many of those lads may never re turn to our midst. ' ' Mrs. Geo. Krause received a teiegramj from vher husband Thursday evening stating that he had arrived in Seattle from Skaguay and would be home is a few days. Mr. Krause contracted a se vere cold while in Skaguay and con cludes that the artic climate is entirely too rigid for him. . Yesterday D. C. Allan! arrived in the city f rem Boyd, and at once took his place in the company, fie had all ar rangements made for an. entertainment at the closing of his school at Boyd ; but on account of . bis sudden departure it will not take place. T.not evening Karl Sanders arrived from Eagene, where he bas been attend ing ecnool, and immediately on his ar rival enlisted in Co. G. -This is anether case in which one of our Dalles boys has . put aside his studies to shoulder a ninsket in defense of his country. Oliver and Leu Knotts, successful cheep man of Birch creek, had more luck with lambinit this serson than ever be fore. Their band of 2000 ewes on Birch creek yeilded 115 per cent Weather favored th9 Knoot brothers, only one rainy night occurred while lambing was in progress. Eev. J. T. Merrill and wife were called to Sherman county Wednesday. Mrs. Merrill's father, G. C. Davis, is very low.

The cattle will be gathered and held ' at -Ellensbnrg, until Mr. Waler returns from Alaska, when they will be started on the long journey. Two tramps, who gave their names to the Walla Wallajpolice as Williams and Millison, were takeb in charge Wednes day. Williams had a bullet wound in bis back. The bullet had entered back ' of the right shoulder-blade and plowed its way toward the neck. It was located and removed. Their story is tbat . Millison was riding a brakebeam a few miles west of Walla Walla, when Williams attempted to swing himself on the brakebeam also. -. In doing so, a revolver in his pocket was accidentally rli'rharired. the bullet striking Willinrnn. It is the intention of the navy de partment to have one auxiliary naval vessel stationed at the mouth of the Co lumbia river for its protection, or in case of necessity. . The probabilities are that one of the merchant vessels which - have been negotiated for on the coast will be used for this purpose, or soine '. vessel that can be readily obtained on armed with six-pounders and rapid-fire guns. The Oregon naval reserve will probably be mustered in for service as "bercrew, as it is desired that men fa miliar with the river and the Pacific Northwest be in command or in position to render service on board the cruiser. I. H. TsffV- was yesterday morning awarded (1000 damages by Judge Bellin ger for a strip of ground through his premises wanted for the purpose of a boat railway. This award of damages is final, and while Taffe, no doubt, will be sorelydisaspo'nted, there is 'no appeal for blm, as he signed an agreement to ' abide the judgment of the court. t Bonds?' Dally.

Thfir Iwdies were swei-t ov-r the falls, and have not been recovered. . . Last evening Bishop Glorieux of Boise City, Idaho,, arrived in this city and will preach at the Catholic church here today. The bishop is a very logical speaker end there is no doubt that the church will be packed. ( A. F. Martin, who was forced to get a short leave of absence from his company in order to attend . to business matters before leaving, returned to the city todav and will leave on the morning train to join Co.

They were for French & Co., and will be sent to the ranges in Gil liam coupty. . Tuesday, Melba, probably the great est singer in the world, will.be in Port land, and lovers of the opera are anx. iously waiting the event. The price "of seats is a great incentive to many of our Dalles people to stay at home, $7 being the maximum. - ' Yesterday the case of Gus Schmidt, who was charged with assault and . bat tery, was ' tried in Justice Filloon's court. The charge was made by Henry Rodman. Schmidt' plead guilty and was fined $15.00 and in default of his fine was placed in jail, to serve out the amonnt of his fine. Yesterday the town seemed dead after having had so much excitement in mili tary' circles. On the departure of the boys,, it . looked as if the place was de serted.. We hope soon to see this war ended in a way that will do honor to the United States, and also to see our boys return as well as they left. - Parties from the Wamic vicinity state that rain is needed badly in tbat section, as the ground is exceptionally dry and if some moisture does not come soon it is almost certain that the crops will feel the effects of the drouth. It appears that they have not had as much rainfall in that vicinity daring the winter and spring as at other places which causes the present bad condition of affairs. Yesterday County Clerk "Kelsay re turned from a trip into the interior, hav ing visited the Dufar, Kingsley and Tygh Valley neighborhoods in company with. Superintendent Gilbert. He states tbat the conditions of the crops in those sections could not be better but that the ground is a little dry for this time of the year. Mr. Gilbert remained at Tygh where be has some school matters to attend to. .'''' v - A farewell demonstration in honor of Troop A, N. G. W., of North Yakima, was given Friday night.

Laura Coolie.. About 150 men are at work for the O. R. & N. Co., laying steel rails between Umatilla and Wallula. The men change constantly. Some of them - are steady and willing workers, of course, and earn the f 1.40 a day, which is the company's wages for laborers. . But many are hobos of the most pronounced stripe, and these stay long enough only to get a meal or two, decamping -afterward to some quiet spot as far away as possible from labor and activity. The other morning reinforcements for the "steel ganss to the number ol forty men ar rived from Portland. Before nightfall fifteen had quit the job, and two more were afterward discharged. . The motion of Sea fert. Bros.' Com pany for a new trial in the proceedings brought by tbe Unitnd States against them to condemn a right of way for a boat railway between Celilo and The Dalles, was denied by Judge Bellinger in the United States court Friday. The case bas been tried three times in Judge Bellinger's court. The amount of dam ages claimed by defendants was $152, 000. ' On the first tria the jury returned a verdict July 10, 1896, awarding defend ant $25,087.50. Counsel for tbe govern ment secured a new trial, and the jury on this occasion awarded defendant $35,000." The government's motion for a new trial was allowed, and on this third trial the jury awarded the defendant $9000. Then defendant moved for a new trial, and Judge Bellinger rendered a decision Friday overruling the motion. W. C.

Along with breaking the city's record with a score of 86, William Birgfeld took tbe cash prize of $2.50 offered for tbe highest average for twenty-five consecu tive games. His' average ecore being 46.4. "'. . Altbongh comparatively little wool bas arrived in this city so far this year, still ia a few days it will begin io crowd in at a great rate. - Shipping receipts are coming in on every stage lrom the interior and tbe wool will begin to move very soon. . ' '. .. The present spring has, been a very favorable one for the eheepmen in the larger portion of Grant county. Lamb ing is in progress, and according to re ports, a fair percentage of the lambs will survive, owing to the prevailing lair ffcather. t . Patrick Mullen, who. is said to have fired tbe first shot of tbe war, in captur ing tbe Spanish vessel Buena Ventnra, had a brother, Mike Mullen, living in Astoria for some time. He . worked on Colombian as oiler about two years ago, ajd was well known among the members of her crow.' ". John Cottingham, an old timer in this city, who some years ago attempted- to kill a bartender in the Umatilla House, got into another racket Saturday and in this he had his right arm broken.

Dufur 50; Sunday, Vic Scbmilt 52. - Some of tbe young men of this place are getting up a private dancing party, which will take place next Thursday evening. This will probably be tbe last hop of the season, and will be largely attended by our young people and eoine of ye old folks. It will take place at the K. of P. hall. Considering tbe open spring that we have enjoyed In Eastern Oregon, one is likely to tbink that grain is .not so far advanced as it might be. -This is due a great deal to the cold nights which we have had all spring. A warmer change seems to be at hand, and in a short time the . crops, which look so backwatd at preeent, will, have a different appear ance. Atpresent the roads are dustier in this county than they have evei been in May. This, is' due not so much to tbe lack of rain as to the fact tbat tbe farm ers throughout the county were veYy busy in tbe early part of tbe spring and tbey did not get to woik on all tbe roads until it was too late in the season, and since tbey have finished there has not been enough moisture to settle, down tbe highway. A war should be waged in The Dalles on the dandelions, which are galnfng such a foothold in our . lawns. In some caseB the lawnB haye-been gone over and every one rooted out, only to make their appearance again as coon as the seed blown from adjoining lots cm take root. The only way to get rid of them Is for each one owninir property to begin the work of extermination at occe. , Other whethey will be as much of a nuisance as the thistle. . In a private letter received by her par ents, Mrs. Fred Wilson speaks of their in tention to start home, and tbey are per haps now on their way. , She tells of the excitement which prevails in Phoenix over the war and of the ill feeling among the Mexicans. . In one instance an American store keeper preeented his employes with small flags, which he de sired they should wear. A Mexican woman and her daughter, who clerked in the store, threw them on tbe floor and tramped upon them, which, of course, caueed much excitement and their dismissal. Like incidents occur every day, making it very unpleasant for residents, and Mr. and Mrs. Wilson are anxious to get away.. One Minute Cough Cure, cures. . Tbat la what It was made lor. COMPANY G, O.

ANOTHER SAD CASE. Tbe City Officers Make an Important, But Sad, Discovery. - 'Another sad case of a young girl being led to a life of shame and destruction bas come to light in our city. : A short lime ago. a man came here from the valley with a voting girl of 17, and immediately on their arrival placed her in a house of ill fame, where be has kept ber since that time. City Marshal Lauer heard of the matter and went to the. girl and attempted to persuade her to give op the life she was leading. His efforts and tbat of the girl's sister, who lives in this city, were to no avail, and the unfortunate girl refused to be advised. Mr. Lauer then turned Ids attention1 to the wretch who was instrumental in her downfall, but he could not be found, and must have lec the city. . Such a man deserves to be classed with crimi nals of the lowest type, and ehould re ceive their just desserts. It is to be hoped that this fiend in Human disguise will be brought to answer for his temer- ity" ' " ' ' ' " ' ' ' ' ATTEMPTED BURGLARY. The Residence of Rev. DeForett Tried Saturday Morning.

" I They may never get into active ser vice outside, of their own state but the uncertainty of war makes it doubtful as to their , destination and the time they will be gone. ' In any case our beet wishes are w ilh.jtheut and if they should get into service we ore sure they will re turn witfc hi nors of war. Iu Favor of Barteli.
