HOW A MODERN TOWN

LATEST EFFUSION FROM RAB-
BITV1LLE IN WHICH AN AS
TORIAN TAKES OVER SOME
OF THE GOOD THINGS.
This is the very latest story from
Rabbibvillc, as told in The Dalles
Optimist, one of the snappiest of the
E. 0. papers. It will be observed
that the yarn is told, all in one breath
no breaks, no paragraphs, just one
long, lord, sweet song of cherries.
"Speaking about cherries minds
me that I was down to the cherry
fare at The Dalles, and it was a grate
show, the gratest I ewer seen, the
gratest ennybody ewer seen. The
Dalles fokes sure does things up rite.
The feller what secretaries the Bizi
ness Mens' Club, a jentleman by the
naim of Patterson, a fine chap he is
too, and onto his job 24 hours out of
evvery day; well, he got his team and
I had a feller with me, a feller from
Astoria, wich is a town down where
the Columbia ends and where the

feller, the feller what runs the As-
torian newspaper, a newspaper what
has been trying to get the peepul to
pass a law prohibiting sammon from
coming up on the south side of the
nvver above Astoria. His name is
Dellinger, Well Mr. Dellinger went
out with Mister, Patterson and Me,
and we seen sum cherry orchards,
not menny, just a few, mebbe about
100, mebbe a ISO, mebee about a mil
lion trees. I dunno just how menny,
neither does Dellinger, for we got
confused at the site of tuns and tuns
of cherries, grate big red ones cal
led the Royall Annie, and annother
lind, a big black kind, called the
Eingo, after the old song, "And
Bingo was his fcaim." Well, the Roy-
all Annie was the best troot enny
man ewer et, onless he et a Bingo,
and vicey versy. Mister Dellinger
says to Mister Patterson. Mister Pat-
terson fnys he, "I always thought the
hejth, prosperity and future good of
Oregon rested on sammon cheeks,
tin cans, sanes and fishhooks, but now
I see I was rong, ded rong, and from
now on I am willing, more than will
ing, that the sammon can run up this,
sifie of the river, if you will let a few
cherries trickle down to Astoria."
"And so we will waive the bloody
shirt, cowered with the gore of the
sammon, no more," says Mister Del
linger, "for this day hath mine eyes
been opened and the skales (goak)
has droooed off of em." - And then
we et annother peck of cherries, then
we cum into town and J ses to Mister
Dellinger, ses I, "Mister Dellinger,
.we also and likewise can sum cher
ries." So I took him around to a em
porum on Second street and called
for a paluser, and there in the bottom
of the glass was a cherry! One lone
cherry! And I ses to Mister Dellinger,
I ses. "This is a palouser, a palouser
under a Non De Plum, and it v;:!l be
your Fait if you dont like it, for .it
will show a lack of eddicatioh." And
Mister Delineer replied, "You will
find that I will soon be a highly eddi
eated man. for I am determined to
tive mostly on cherries from now on",
finding they taste better, one at a
time, cooked like this one." And then
we parted to meet at the Cherry
Fare next vear. And in the meen-
time we hope Mister Dellinger will
not get the cherry habit so rank as
to forget to let a phew sammon, enny-
how a phew little fellers, come up
along this side of the rivver."

HOOD RIVER AND HER DEAL
WITH THE PACIFIC STATES
TELEPHONE COMPANY AND
ITS CONSEQUENCES.
In conversation with an Astoria
citizen just returned from a visit to
Hood River, yesterday It is learned
that that snug little city has had her
differences with the Pacific States
Telephone Company, and along the
identical lines now disturbing the peo
ple of Astoria.
For years the Hood Riverians con
tended against a poor service from a
decrepit system and when their par
tience was exhausted, simply cut out
the Pacific States instruments from
the last house and office in the com
munity, and instantly and loyally
banded themselves into a home or
ganization, bought, and installed, a
new and modern equipment, hired
their own operatives, and this con
cern is still doing the telephonic
business of Hood River, and giving
genuine satisfaction, while the Pacific
States Company is glad to remain.

loyalty that accomplishes things, and
this is the spirit that must assert itself

SHOT WHILE ASLEEP
Mexican Bandits Killed By Orders
From Governor.
MEXICAN CITY, July 18.-De-
tails of the killing of the famous
bandits Conobio Rodriguez, "El Jor
abado" and his two companions An
tonio and Policarpo Reyes, have just
reached here. The bandits charged
with the killing of H. S. Jones, an
American, and- with many other
crimes, were shot while they slept.
Jorabada and his gang made a mock
attack on a hacienda near which the
robbers were encamped. The latter
took the supposed recruits in. These
watched and traveled with the bandits
for five days, waiting the chance to
catch the real robbers off guard and
execute the orders of the governor
of the State of Durango to take the
men dead or alive. Finally the ban-
lits who had been suspicious of the
