"Twenty five cents for a man and horte," said the gatekeeper. "Well, then got out of the way ; we're two old women and a mare. Get up, Sadie." And the man stood in open mouthed wonder aa the old women drove off. We have a fruit, vegetable and grain farm combined, for sale cheap. It con sists of 80 acres of rich loam and can all be irrigated, a large creek running through the place, besides several never failing springs; about 1500 hearing fruit trees, three acres of grapes and other small fruits; well improved in the way of buildings and fences; would make an ideal frnit, truck and dairy farm; only four mile, from the city. This ia the chance of a lifetime. Inquire of Hud eon & ISrownbill.

The great demand for sheep In the Willamette valley is illustrated by the following item from the Eugene Guard : "J. II.

The marchioness of Bute, with her only daughter, Lady Margaret Chrich- " ton-luart, and her third son, Lrd Son. Lrd Coluiu Criehton Stuart, are en route for Palestine. They have with them the heart of the lae tuaiqms of Rute for burial on Mount Olivet, in accordance with the desire of the deceased noble man. The heart of Kins Robert of Bruce, who was an ancestor of the mar qa'S of Bute, was conveyed by a Doug las for burial in the Holy Land. Special permission was given by the pope ot the day to si !o it to be extracted from the body according to the king's re-juest. A legend fays that the party were at tacked by the Saracens in Spain and in a battle Douglas flung the casket con taining his charge into the midst of the enemy, crying. "Onward as thou wert wont, thou noble heart; Douglas will follow thee." The gallant chieftain was J .ud, but Bruce's heart was subse- q lenily recovered and taken to Melrose abbey, where it was interred. Yesterday afternoon Professor Griffith, the hypnotist, performed the feat of finding a jack knife that had been hid d n by a committee, consisting of H. W, Wells, Dr. Eshelman, A, S. Cathcart and Will Croseen, while the hypnotist was guarded by another committee, con sisting of Ferd Dietzel, R. J.Gorman and W. Lauder, in the room back of Clarke & Falk's drug store. Then, blindfolded, the profeseor took the lines of the team used by the hidera of the knife, aid following tne circuitous route which they took when hiding it, pulled up in front ci The Dalles Commission House, and, climbing a telephone pole, found the knife where Will Crossen had placed it, on the top of the wooden awn ing. During the drive he was accompa nied by the committee who hid the knife. No word was epoken from start lo finish and the onlv contact the hypnotist had with his companions whs a small copper wire fasteneil around his forehead and attached to the hack, and incidentally to the committee men. Both committees were eliosen from a crowd that gathered in front of Clarke & Falk's drug store, and every possible precaution was taken to prevent collusion between the com mittees and between them and the hypnotist. Tonight Professor Griffith will give his closing entertainment At the Vogt. Monday's Daily. Sheriff Kelly and Deputy Sheriff Woods went to Mosier this afternoon on business connected wtih the sheriff's office. A peddier was rubbed last night in an East End feed yard of two grips contain ing his stock in trade. No trace of tbe robber has been found. J. G.

TheB. S. A L. Co., of Hay Creek, with that spirit of liberality which char acterizes ail their dealings, have come to the rescue of the Antelope Fair Asso ciation with a donation of 100. The receipts from the fair failed to meet all of the expenses, and this contribution from the Hay Creek company was a very gracious act, say, the Herald. Assessor Whipple left this afternoon for Portland, where he will attend the assessors' convention which will open at that place tomorrow. Judge Blakeley will leave here on the morning train for the same purpose and will be joined at Hood River by CommUsioner Evans. All of these gentlemen are earnestly in favor of a slate board of equalization unless the enemies of a state board can suggest something better, which is not at all likely. Hon. A. S. and Mrs. Roberts will leave in the morning for Eocene to attend the wedding of Mr. V. H. Roberts and Miss Mabw-I Mi'Cann, which will be celebrat ed at that place tomorrow afternoon Tbe wedding is the outgrowth of an at tachment formed while the contracting parties were school companions at Ku gene. The wedding will be strictly pri vate, or, as the brother of the brido groour pnta it: "No cards, no cake, no gingerbread, no nothing." Mr. II, C. Hooper quite recently found a fossil on hia ranch which would no doubt prove of unusual interest to arch aologists. The fo3sil appears to be the lower left jw of some largo animal, and but for its siz3 and the number of teeth it contains, could easily have been mis taken fur a human jaw-bone. The shape of the teeth would indicate that the animal was omnivorous, but the jaw teetli numbered fully twice aa many as an "np-to-diite" human being is usually possessed of. In any event, Mr. Rooper has a very interesting relic of some pre historic petiod. Antelope Herald. Stock Inspector Bonney writes to the Antelope Herald that some bucks which were pastured at Mr. Vanmeters in Tygh Vally have broken out with ecab Theee bucks were owned bv the follow ing named parties: C. T. Fargher, F N. Jones, II. Fargher, Gus Sachs, Wal lace Fargher, W. E. Hunt, SI. Maxwell, Johu Karlen and Frank Gable. Tho most prompt measures have been taken to have these sheep properly treated. Some eheep still on the Vaumeter place have the ecab also. They have been promptly dipped and put on new pits turn. The darkness of last night, or bad aim, or both, prevented a tragedy in the East End close to the place where Night watchman Like had the tussle with a couple of toughs a few nights ago. About 0:30 o'clock Officer Like Bud another observed a couple of strangers that were acting, a tbey thought, sus. piciously and made towards them. As tbe officers approached the men took to their heels. Tbe officers gave chase and aa they neared the strangers one of them sent a ball past one of the officer's ears. The lire was promptlyreturned but the men easily escaped in tbe darkness. Our esteemed contemporary, the An telope Republican learn, on good au thority that "Hood River will try to be cut off from Wasco county, and form a new one at this coming session of the legislature." If our Hood River friends have any such Intention, they must reckon on the opposition of the Repub lican, for it asks excitedly: "What are we going to do? Lay in the shade and go to sleep? Or will we he up and do ing ami looking to our interests. This is not a matter of county sent, but a matter of taxation.

In the circuit court the bearing of the action for contempt of court, entitled State of Oregon ex rel. Bernard Warren, vs. Frank Dever.port, was put off till tomorrow. In this action the defendant ia charged with having violated an order of the court forbidding him to take w ater out of a certain irrigating ditch in the Hood River country. Negotiations were on foot today looking to the settlement of tbe case outside the court. Two car loads of fat hogs were shipped this morning from the company 's etoik yards to Troutdale. Nearly a hundrei of them belonged to John and W. H. Farlow aud Johu Led ford, of the Wamic country, and were driven to town. The rest belonged to J. R. Woodcock, Dave Campbell, Will Norval, Chas. Wing, R. B. Driver, of Wamic, and Louie Delco, of Wapinltia. They were purchased by Roe Grimes for the Union Meat Com pany. The prfce for most r f them was 4.75.

The Telegram says a Seattle syndicate has purchased the hull and cabina of what remain, of the propeller steamer Inland Flyer, which was built in Port land in 1898 to run between that city and The Dalles. She will be towed around to the Sound and placed on a run there. It is understood negotiations are also pending for the purchase of the steamer Reliance. The Seattle men are anxious to secure two steamers for emergency work in their locality. The Inland Flyer was built at the Supple yards for The Dalles, Portland & Astoria Navigation Co. She was fitted with pipe boilers and triple expansion en gines, and calculated to make -J miles an hour. Her owners calculated she would make a daily lound trip between Portland and the Columbia river points. They were anxious for the tourist travel, and not the freight business. On her trial trip she developed a speed of 13 miles, and this was under forced draught. She was placed on the route, hut ran only intermediately for less than a year. She was returned to Portland and her machinery taken out and placed in what is now the Reliance, 250 iquare feet of heating sot face being added to her boilers when changed to the new craft. Other machinery will be placed in the Flyer when she reaches the Sound.

It is the intention to have a return game at The Dalles on Thanksgiving, and our people must help the home team in extending a roval welcome to our friends, and to entertain them during their brief slay. The Dalles boy played a good gmie after the "tluke" that s-ve Goldendale the touchdown. The ride over was cold and the boys were not In good condition to play ui.:il warmed up. They were making rapid giius wheu an error gve the hosts the score of five. On the toss n;, The Dalles won and chose goal, giving Goldendale the kick off. The Dalles held the ball till well toward their goal, when by a careless move The D.dles lost the ball, and shortly afterward Captain McKenzie made a run around The Dalles left and nearly scored a touchdown before being tackled. It was in this play Hint plucky Hob Mnrry, The Dalles' quarter-back, had his colltir-bor.e broken, but he remained in the game fully ten minutes longer despite his injury, which was unknown until a -lector was called to examine the hurt. In the next play, Goldendale'git ove the line, but failed to kick a goal. Tho rest ol the game was all The Dalies'. In a few. minutes they had secured a touchdown, but also tailed in kicking a goal, and at the close of the first half were within the ten-vard line of their goal. In the second half, The Dalles made two touchdown's but failed to kick one goal, and at the close of the game were within one foot of their goal, the game ending 5 to 16, in favor of TheJD.illes. Special mention should be made of the playing of Cooper, Murray, Scott, and of Groehler, who made two long end runs ; of Rex Ward's sure work as quarter-back, and without practice, and of the line's success in withstanding all line bucks without any assistance from the backs. The remainder? of the team deported themselves excellently, which was all very creditableto Captain Max Kartell, who coached the team, playing left-half in the game.
