The air, states the report, is stimulating and healthful and though temperatures of 100 degrees are common, generally admitted to be disagreeable, are of local character and destructive winds are unknown. Cold waves are unusu al and seldom last more than a week before ; southern winds 'break their force. : Winter climate Is often mod erated by Chinook winds, bringing abnormally high temperatures. Mean ' annual temperature ranges from 43 to 55 degrees. The highest temperature ever reached was 119 at Pendleton on August 10, 19G8 and the lowest was 31 below zero at La Grande on Jaunary 14, 4888. Prlne ville has the least annual range, the change from the highest to the low est mean temperature being only ,31 degrees, while Malheur county has the greatest, 44 degrees. In some portions highly favored, the growing season reaches 200 days, while in the least favored frost oc curs every month In the year. This condition Is offset by the" fact tha?, on account of the dryness of the cli mate, frost often does not form un til a temperature as low as 27 de grees Is reached. . V ; ; Appended to the report Is a sum mary of hydographlcal data In which special attention is given to the won derful possibilities of the Deschu' u i iter. It is stated that ' the marl mtm discharge ot this river Is onlf four 'times the minimum, which fact mskes It the most vaulable rive, in the state, with practically unlimited resources for power and Irrigation. The steadiness of the flow Is attri buted to the porous lava and basil tis .formation which underlies Its bed.

HE HAD 'EM. The Surprise That Greeted Him After ' . Hia Debauch. A millionaire who had queer , ideas of humor and the means to carry them Into effect lived in great style near Monte Carlo. This man had an Ivory white villa on a gray crag in a garden of palms' and roses, fronting the sun and sunlit sea. Here he. would entertain his friends with practical Jokes..:'."" '"'" iV V:: One night, after roulette at the ca sino and supper at Ciro's, a party of young men were taken to the villa. A certain young man had drunk a little too much vintage champagne at the elegant restaurant, and him the host resolved to play one of his Jokes upon. So when the young man fell asleep In the billiard room two servants, re pressing their smiles, carried blm away, . The other guests were awakened the next morning by the host in person. He led them through sunlit marble c w 7 CX ITCHED WITH TEKNIUBD BAUDS THX , BTKKOF TH CHAKDKLrJEB. , corridors, through rooms whose Walls of glass gave views of the blue Med iterranean; of sailing ships, rose gar dens', and the faroff maritime Alps, with their pale snow caps." Finally he brought them to a peephoe. ; The. scene they saw through their peephole was absurd. A dazed man In evening dress, slowly waking to con sciousness, lay "on a' white plastered floor' and looked up in horror at a car peted' celling. A massive bed, a bu reau, washstands and armchairs, all securely fastened, stared down at him from above. . His eyes rested on a huge tub directly over his head, In which a fine palm was growing down wards.' He gave a yell of terror, rolled oyer and clutched with frenzied hands the stem of the chandelier, which came up through the plastered floor. Thereupon the practical Joker of a host burst, with a loud laugh! into the the room. . ... "They all do itr he cried. 'They all without exception grab the chandelier for fear they will fall up to the cell ingr ' '"' : ' . . t L - .. M'a'M'"Maati(asJt ikt.ii-"r.M.i ii"7.'r.7. , 1V",:;.' -"fStTaiiitTrai'irt at j.

A young lady entered a grocer's shop in. London and asked for some good cheese. The grocer showed her an assortment which did not please her. 8he wanted some particularly "lively" cheese. . He then showed her the re mainder of his stock, amounting to pme half doren samples. No, she wanted it still more "lively." At last the grocer, losing all patience, sar castically called to his assistant: "John, nnchain No. 7 and let it walk K. f .S. v.... . ' 'A . ! in.- . . . , ;
