There are still some reminders of the

A number of the V. M. C. A. boys

Never in the history of the office has a

If any have not sufficient interest in
the result of the election nfxt Tuesday
or imagines his vote is not worth re
cording, it might be well to remember
that one man saved the honor of Crook
county four years ago, that county being
carried for McKinley by the vote of a
village schoolmaster, How ard Isenberg.
Since that time tho young man has
served his country nobly in the Philip
pines and upon returning with the
volunteers entered upon his previous
vocation and was sent by Superintend
ent Gilbert back to his former school at
Cross Keys. - A few days since he wrote
Mr. Gilbert that Crook county bids fair
to again decide lor the right side, but
this time by a much greater majority
than a single vole.
Is it possible after repeated doses of
"Si Perkins," "Josh Whitcomb," and
like performances, perfectly devoid of a
semblance of merit and permeated with
a strong flavor of "chestnuts," that the
Voyt was crowded with an audience
composed of the beet people of the city
at last night's performance of "Uncle
Josh Spruoeby," the name of which was
a sufficient indicator of what the play
would be? Just why such shows (which
added to their already meritlesa nature,
persist in slighting audiences In small
places) are always certain of the bett
houses, while other deserving compan
ies are slighted, is beyond our ken, and
yet such, we reluctantly acknowledge,
Is invariably the case In The Dalles, and
in this instance there was positively no
room for doubt as to the merit of the
play, as everyone was conversant with
its nature. Some may, however, cen
sure home newspapors, claiming that
notices preceding were flattering. True;
but it will always be observed that such
comments are taken from other papers
and published as advertisements, for
which, as in other cases, we do not hold
ourselves responsible.

Charles McAllister, the sheep king of
Croy, Ofgon, was registered at the Ho
tel Condon this week. Mr. McAllister
is in search of from 0000 to 4000 ewe
Iambs, but could find none for sale in
this neighborhood and explained that
he would in all probability have to go
to The Dalles in order to have bis want
supplied. He incidentally mentioned
that he had disposed of his ewes and
lambs recently for fG andl respectively,
the whole baud averaging over fo per
head. This is, we understand, the high
est price ever paid for graded ewes and
lambs and says much for the ability of

Business men on Second street, be
tween Federal and Langhlin, have b"gun
to consider their places of business as a
target for all sorts and conditions of
burglars, and well they may for almost
every week they are called upon to con
tribute to the fund which keeps these
rascals afloat.
Friday night the I. X. L. restaurant,
kept by John BurgrafT, was the ecene of
their depredations. Upon returning
from the theater with his family, Mr.
Burgraff was about to unlock the back
door when ho discovered that someone
bad kindly left it unlocked for him, and
upon going into the front room found
that bis till had been broken open and
$16, most of which was kept in a purse
and canvas bag, was missing. The rob
ber, however, deciding not to leave biro
entirely btoke, left $2 In silver in the
till. Nothing further had beeu dis
turbed in the dining room, but in the
kitchen a wire screen had been removed
from a side window. What this had
been done for could not be discovered as
it was evident the fellow had neither
entered nor departed by that route.
Stranger still, but presumably to cover
up .the 'act that he bad a key, the lock
on the door had been broken; but in
the meantime he overlooked the fact
that he had forgotten to again turn the
lock on, giving his motive away.
There ia little doubt in Mr. Buraraff's
mind w ho his visitor was, and before
long he expects to return the call, in
company w ith officers.
It is high time some of these thieves
were captured, and to accomplish this
it seems evident our officers will not be
compelled to go far from The Dalles.

proof of our gratitude to you the raising
of a purse, etc. A committee (you see
the gentlemen present here) was ap
pointed for that purpose, and I am
pleased to say that nearly all upon
whom we could call cheerfully gave their
mite for it. The committee is especially
thankful to the missions of Kingsley,
Cascades and Hood River for their gen
erous contributions.
Rev Father, you have now been a mis
sionary priest for twenty-five years and
have labored here in The Dalles for over
twenty years. We all know how bard
and unceasingly you have labored in
this mission. You were always ready to
assist the poor and the needy ; always
ready to answer sick calls and adminis
ter the sacrament of the holy Catholic
church to the sick and to the dying no
matter how far you had to travel in the
vast region of Eastern Oregon. This I
mention only f pasmnt, but it is proper
for me to say here today that the erec
tion of the new bt. Peter's church is the
crowning work of your pastoral labors
among us. Although, in your modesty
ana wnsellisliness, you would not give
permission to have your name engraved
in the corner stone, still I venture to say
that future generations will thankfully
remember In their prayers the builder
or one ot the handsomest churches in
Oregon; a church which is erected to
the glory of God and in honor of St
Peter, the prince of the apoBtles.
Some members of our congregation
seem to have lorgotten the tact, or per
haps do not know it, that you are th
largest subscriber for this church, and
if I would sum up all the extra bills
you paid out of your own pocket and
from your privite means, your contri
tuitions would reach the large sum ot
$-000. (As financial secretary I know
of what I sneak.)
In view of this fact alone, it Is not
more than proper and right that your
friends should give yon, on this joyful
occasion, a sign of their esteem and grat
itude, and therefore tbey offer you this
little purse and beg you to accept it
graciously.
And now I'extend to you, in the name
of all those whose signatures you will
find upon these papers, the most hearty
congratulations on your silver jubilee
and hope that we all may live long
enough to celebrate your golden jubilee.
Father Bionsgeest, in a few earnest
and impressive words, thanked his
friends for their kindness. The other
priests, after having made short con
gratulatory speeches, manifested their
good will ih an appropriate present of
their own.
