A London clergyman tells a moving
tale of innocence in the East End. A
frail little liirl came into a public house
with a jug to fetch her parents half a
pint. When the jug was filled, she
nervously put down two half-pennies
on the counter and made for the door.
The barman, though he hardly liked to
frighten the poor little thing, called
after her in a gentlo voice: "You're a
half-penny short." "No, you're a half
penny short," she answered, and dis
appeared. A social event which will long be re
membered bf the young people of
Mosier was a party given last Wednes
day evening at the borne of Mr. and
Mr. A inns Root in honor of Miss Mabel
Riddell, of The Dalles. The evening
wa spent In playing games and other
amusements. At 11 o'clock a sump tons

We are reliably informed, says the
Prineville Journal, that Sherar's 'grade
on The Dalles-Prineville road has been
vastly improved lately by building a
new one on the west side with so (light
a gradient that light teams may trot
either way almost the entire distance
with ease. This has necessitated a large
expenditure of money, for which Sberar
deserves credit, the old grade being con
sidered good.
The Philadelphia Record, speaking of
the Passion Play, to he repeated here
next Wednesday and Thursday nights,
says? "The most notable and certainly
the most noble use to which that mar
velous invention has yet been put. It
was a demonstration, indeed, of the
wonderful possibilities of this magic life
photography, and proved to be an event
which will remain ever memorable in
the recollections of all who witnessed
the realistic spectacle."

say he has just pasted over the Cow
Canyon toll road with seveuty-eiht
hundred weight of freight, with six com
mon horses, and had no trouble at all ;
but, on the contrary, be thinks the road
is in very good condition for this time

communication would have bad more
weight if the writer had cent bis name
along w itb it.
Captain Johntonxbrought up from
Portland Saturday the new steamer Re-
liauce. to be fitted np at this place. She
will probably hi ready for the run be'
tween here and Portland in the course
of five or six days. The Reliance is a
right handsome little craft. She has a
net tonnaga capacity of 10-1 tons and is
licensed to carry 100 passengers all her
owners ask. She is rated as a sixteen
mile boat, but may do better than this
when some contemplated improvements
are made in her machinery.
The meeting announced for Sunday
afternoon for young men only was held
in the Methodiet church at 4 p. rn., and
was well attended, between forty and
fifty ot tte city's brightest lads being
present. A very interesting Christian
service was held which a number of the
young men, assisted by Rev. U. F
Hawk and W. C. Allaway, made the
first of these meetings a decided success.
The young men decided to continue
these meetings every Sunday afternoon
until the Y. M. C. A. is organized, and
will meet next Sunday afternoon at 4
o'c'ock, in the Congregational church.
The leader selected waa Willie Cross,
who will bo assisted by a number of
good speakers and musicians, and a very
enjoyable and instructive time is
promised. It is hoped the Christian
men and boys of the city will keep this
meeting in mind and assist by being
present themselves and bringing all the
friends they can with them.

mer, and it is not necessary to say it is
exceedingly welcome.

Work on the scouring mill building is
going on apace. The roofing is nearing

George Halvor, whose place is near
Crate's Point, says he will have ripe
strawberries in the course of a week ;
not many perhaps, but probably enough
to start the market. He thinks the
Dalles strawberries will be two weeks
earlier this year than those of Hood
River

Now a soldier in the Philippines has
been saved by a plug of tobacco in bis
pocket, which stopped a bullet that
would otherwiso have gone through
him, While this Is not an argument
against; carrying Testaments, neither
does it prove that the tobacco trust is a
mild and benevolent institution.
Postmaster If. If. Riddell had a letter
yesterday from a resident of Hood River
who lteiy moved to that place from
The Dalles neighborhood, requesting
Mr. Riddell to "please send me all the
mail tu your office." The request was
a stunner for the postmaster, but he
finally interpreted it a meaning that
lbs Hood River new-corner simply
wanted bis own mail.
A. Scherneckau, of Astoria, arrived
here from Astoria last evening expecting
to remain about a week and talk over
the situation with a view to having a
line of boats pat on the run between
here and Astoria. Astoria needs a
whole lot of stuff that the farmers and
horticulturists of this neighborhood
have to sell and the Astorians would be
glad to buy. If the Astoriantcan furnish
reciprocal freight for the up-river trip,
there ought to be business for at least
one boat to start with.

ble. Yesterday the chief event was the
finding of a little doll In each of the
seventeen birthday cakes provided by
Mrs. Douthit. Today Mrs. Poling pro
vided the twenty-five in attendance
with soap bubble pipes, and anyone
who has ever seen twenty-five healthy,
happy youngsters abundon themselves
to this exciting pastime can imagine
whether they enjoyed themselves or not.
Of the Passion Play to be presented
here tomorrow and Thursday nights the
Congregationalist says: "To those who
are fond of sacred art, the crude and
simple representation of Bible scenes
and of the Saviour's life and death by
Bohemian peasants in their Passion
Plays is deeply interesting. The cine
matograpbs, presenting moving pictures
of these plays on the screen, bring be
fore the ejes, as it were, mediaeval
paintings of Scripture scenes without
their color, and gives them life. In the
Boston Museum these scenes, as given
by the Horitz peasants, are being repro
duced from Adam and Eve in the gar
den to the resurrection morning. They
accompanied appropriate descriptions
with Scripturequotations, and the organ
musio with the rendering of hymns by
an excellent soloist. Entirely devoid of
irreverence and free from tediousness,
the entertainment carries with it also
artistic and religious elements. A vis
itor was heard to remark the other
night as the crowd passed out 'they
ought to have taken up a collection ;'
which was his way of saying that he
felt as though he had been to church."
A Hen Symposium.
Brother Ireland of the Sherman
County Observer writes the following
symposium on the hen. The careful
reader will see that there is method in it
There is no better advertiser than the
hen. Every time she lays an egg she
announces the fact by a lively cackle
and also works the rooster to assist in
lettiug the world know that an egg bas
been laid. As a consequence the good
housewives and children find the nest,
and the fresh nutritious egg satisfies the
appetite of man and keeps bim in a
good humor. It Is not so with the
goose, which, by the way, is not so good
a layer as the hen. This short-legged
sister, in a self-sufficient sort of a way,
steals out into the weeds, lays an erg,
and then waddles off without saying a
word the result la a nest full of spoiled
eggs. The goose, on account of ber
failure to advertise, is very unpopular
and the tribe Is nearly extinct, while
poets sings praises to the ben and every
body is ber friend.

to be tlie third plank in the Democratic
state platform. It atylea itself "Rail
road Plank In State Democratic Plat
form' and pretends tuahave been adopt
ed by the Democratic state convention
at the auggestion of railroad men. It ia
therefore evidently for railroad-men
consumption. The plank ia harmless
enough, if we accept the first sentence,
which is simply a repetition ot the con
cetsion made to free riot in the Demo
cratic national platform of four years
ago. But the peculiar thin.' about it is
that it did not appear in any cpv of the
platform tnat waa published at the time
of the convention, nor has it appeared
in any of our exchanges aave one,
eemi-eocialietic fheet published at Pen
dleton, aud then only by itself and
under the same suspicious circumstances
that characteriza its appearance here.
If it is a new. plank, by what authority
is it pretended to be a part of the Demo
cratic platform? If it was la the ori
ginal platform, why was it that another
raw and crude production was substi
tuted for it? Is it possible that some
timid souls have shrunk from the raw
socialism of the original plank aud,
fearing its effect among a most intelli
gent class of voters, the railroad men of
Oregon, have, without the authority of
the convention, substituted this mild
and harmless corrective?
Tub Chkoniclb cannot answer these
questions, but it gravely suspects crook
edness somewhere. However, it pub
lishes both planks in parallel columns
that its readers may know what is going
on :

The Topeka Capital says : "The vlta-
scopic pictures of 'The Passion Play
pleased the crowd. Edison's vitascope
reproduction of 'The Passion Play,' as
produced every ten years at Oberam
mergau, was given at Garfield park last
night to a large and appreciative
audience. AU the important scenes in
the life of the Savior are shown from
His first appearance aa a babe to the
ascension after the crucifixion. The
scenes are so real and lifelike that it is
not hard to imagine hearing the conver
sation between those who are repre
sented in the play. One of the best Is
the scene in which Lazarus is raised
from death to life, the audience becom
ing breathlessly attentive as the large
stone falls from the door of the tomb.
The death of John the Baptist, after
which his head is brought before the
king on the platter; the Savior in the
midst of the children; the last supper
with the disciples; Christ before Pilate;
the Savior carrying the cross; the cruci
fixion; and, finally, the ascension, are
very vividly shown in a way that elicited
many favorable comments from those
who were present. A brief historical
description was given between scenes.
The play will be repeated tonight and
tomorrow night, as the management
think it is a very . appropriate Sunday
evening sermon. '
The play will be given at the Vogt
opera house next Wednesday and Thurs

NEW TRAIN SERVICE.
The double train service to be estab
lished between Portland and Chicago
April 22, in which the O. R. A N., the
Union Pacific and the Oregon Short
Line are interested, will shorten the
through time eleveu hours. Tram No.
2, leaving Portland at 9:15 a. in., be
ginning on the date named, will be
known as the Chicago-Portland special.
Its equipment will be new, making it
fully the equal of any Irani now in ser
vice from the Pacific coast to the East.
It will consist of a mail car, baa-gaga
car, two chair cars, aud a tourist sleeper.
There will be but one change of care to
all eastern points. The full lime will
be three days through to Chicago, or
four days through to Chicago, or fonr
days and two botirs to New York.
The second train, know n as No. 6,
will leave Portlind at 0:20 p. m., con
necting at Eset Portland with the South
ern Pacific's overland train from San
Francisco, and will carry through equip
ment to Chicago via the Union Pacific
and the Chicago and Northwestern, and
also the equipment for the Washington
division of the O. R. & N., in c nnec
tion with the Great Northern for St.
Paul. This train will reach Spokane at
10 a. m. A dining car w ill be furnished
for breakfast into Spokane, and for
dinner on corresponding train leaving
Spokane at 3:45 p. m. The new sched
ule as arranged ill supply the most
completo service ever furnished on the
O. R. & N., as it provides increased ser
vice in Ei9tern Oregon, where it it
greatly needed, and gives immediate
connection with the Washington divi
sion at Pendleton. At this point there
is a large interchange of traffic, on ac
count of the various mining districts of
Baker county, the Cceur d'Alene, the
Republic and Kootenai minin camps.
Portland is greatly benefited bv this
change, In as much as increased sorvice
is given from Eastern Oregon and Idaho.
No. 2 will arrive in Chicago at 9:30
a. in. ; No. 6 at 7 :4o a, in., aa at present.
The Westbound train out of Chicago,
corresponding with No. 2, is No. 1.
This will arrive in Portland at 4:00 p.
m. The train corresponding with the
eastbound No. 6 Is No. S, out of Chicaito.
This will reach Portland at 7:30 a.m.
