LOCAL BREVITIES.
Mr. 'Richard Barter of Nansene fs in
:the city.
Hon. E. O. McCoy, of Grant, was in
'the city yesterday.
Mrs. T. P. Mays of Portland, is in the
city visiting her mother, Mrs. E. M.
""Wilson.
The stage for Goldendale leaves Hood's
istable every morning except Sunday at
7 o'clock.
Hampton Bros, have two carloads of
fine beef cattle at the stock yards await-
ring shipment.
The west bound passenger this morn
ing astonished itself by getting here
, only an hour or so late.
The physicians of the city complain
' because it is distressingly heatthy, for
which everybody is thankful.
Mr. John Stoddard, of Hood River,
was in the city yesterday, leaving this
anorning to look after the mills in which
lie is interested at North Powder.
The holidays seem to have stirred up
our secret societies, .nearly all of which
are increasing their membership. Jfe
understand a lodge of the A.' E. O., will
ix organized here in a few days.
When you see a man walking in the
'.street with his hat hanging on his off
ar like a man who owns a coal yard, it
is a sure sign that he has bought property
in isortn .Danes. uoidenaaie Uourter.
The outside of the court house is again
in good repair and the inside is getting a
.general overhauling. The plastering in
4he court room was ruined by the fire
and is being replaced. The work will be
finished in a couple of weeks, at most.
We understand one of our energetic
"citizens will soon put a steam scow on
he river for the purpose of supplying
this city with firewood. At the same
time quite a local trade will be picked
up, and the steam scow may be, we hope
as, the nucleus of a line of steamers.
A steam shovel and outfit arrived here
veeterday in charge of Mr. J. C. Bell to
be ased in widening the cuts on the
road between here and Portland, and in
'removing the earth and gravel from such
places as are liable to slide. It will be
kept at work all winter.
The board of trade will meet tonight
an their handsome new quarters, room
39 Vogt block, much important business
lias accumulated and it is to be hoped
the attendance will be large to the end
tthat all of this business may be attended
no..
The engineers who examined the river
for a location for a bridge, decided on a
point near the Wasco warehouse as the
most available place for this end, the
other striking the bank just below the
rayine which shows in the upper beach.
It is very probable that this bridge will
fcejbuilt in 1891.
it looks very much as though we were
to have a repetition of the winter of two
.years ago. South of us there has been
but little rainfall not enough to make
plowing possible. The skies are over
-cast with rain clouds, but they seem to
have dropped all their moisture on the
other side of the Cascade range.
It was Mr. Waterman's team instead
of Doyles that ran away yesterday. They
pulled down an awning post to which
they were tied, which dragged between
them.. Mr. Reed caught them before
they did any damage, but had he not
done so it is probable they would have
made a wreck of the wagon and them
selves. The market is .well supplied with
-game, bear, venison, ducks and geese.
'The latter are especfally abundant and
owing to the grain fields being bare are
plump and fat. Barnyard fowls are also
numerous and the plaintive gobble of
the big turkey is considerably more
numerous than it will be after the holi
days. Manager McNeil of the U. P. has
issued a circular dated December 20th,
calling attention to the fact "that the
."garnisheeing of employes wages is an
unmitigated nuisauce to the company.
nd stating that while a careful exami
nation will be made into each case, if it
. is found that the employe is guilty of
.negligence in allowing the garnishment
to be made, it will be considered suffi
cient cause for his discharge.
There is fun in store for the young
folks this Christmas eve. The Metho
dist Sunday school will have a Christ
mas tree for their little folks, the Con
gregational Sunday school will give a
. Christmas entertainment which will be
of a novel character and verv pleasinjr
withal. Also the Episcopal Sunday
rachool will have a Christmas ladder for a
change in the general line of Christmas
attractions. It is always understood
that an invitation is extended to the
imembers and friends of each society.
The shoe factory at North Dalles is
.-running, turning out samples of such
;goods as the company intends to manu
"cacture. As soon as the samples are
made salesmen will be put on the road

building of this factory has been a re

Marshal Gibons reports the town free
from tramps and drunks scarce.
Ex-Governor. Z. F. CJMeody, Mrs,
Moody and Miss Moody, came np to this
city last night and will spend the holi
days with their sons.
It is raining in the Willamette valley
and snowing on Mt. Hood. Strange
that every time the valley takes a bath
the old mountain puts on a .white shirt,
Dalles Four-year-old "How will Santa
Claus get here this year, mama, when
there is no snow?" Mama, brightly-
"If the present weather continues he
will come as usual with the rain dear.
The children of the M. E. Sabbath
school will gather the fruit from their
Christmas tree on Wednesday evening
at seven o'clock. All who desire to put
gifts for the school on the tree are re
quested to bring them to the church not
later than 3 o'clock Wednesday after
noon. Our genial justice, Emil Schultz, was
busily engaged tnis afternoon loading a
spring wagon with velocipedes and toys,
from which we judge that Santa Claus
this year will be as jovial and generous
as usual albeit a rich accent acquired by
foreign travel will astonish tbe ears of
the little ones. Emil has the heart of
a Santa Claus, we wish he had the bank
account of Jay Gould with it.
ne Vjymnasium Ulub will give a
series of dancing parties during the
winter at their hall in Nickelsen's build
ing. Professor Birgfeld will furnish the
music which will leave -nothing to be
desired on that score. The first dance
will be given Friday evening next, and
the others at times to be fixed hereafter.
Mr. P. E. Michell who resides at Col
umbus, Wash., is in the city to spend
the holidays with friends and attend to
business interests. In conversation
with him we learn that preparations are
materlizing for substantial improve
ments in Columbus next season, and
that plans have been perfected for a
national bank there. From- what we
know of that point it is a favorable loca
tion for a city.
One hundred and six tons of cast iron
pipe for the now water works arrived
this morning. The pipe consists of 408
pieces six inch, fifty-one pieces : eight
inch twenty-four pieces twelve inch,
and six pieces four inch, and was pur
chased from the Oregon Iron and Steel
company, of Oswego., The work of dig
ging the trenches " laying the i pipe . and
building the reservoir will be com
menced at once unless the weather pre
vents it. .
At the M. E. Charch.
Thenorning theme at the Methodist
church Sunday was "The Great Renun
ciation." . - '
Text "For ye know the grace of our
Lord Jesus Christ, that, though He was
rich yet for your sakes he became poor,
that ye through his poverty might be
rich." Rom.. VIII 9.
The work of human redemption by
Jesus Christ has no parallel in history
or fiction. 1
In Arnold's poem, "The Light of
Asia" the Prince Gautma, is represented
as voluntarily renouncing crown and
throne and scepter that he might go out
among the poor and the destitute, to
mitigate their sufferings, and help them
to a better and a happier life. But this
story of poetic fiction bears but a faint
resemblance to the story of the cross. -
bwift'8 story of a country where the
horses were rational beings, suggests a
possible parallel. Suppose a horse, or,
say a toad, endowed with a rational na
ture, as man is ; ithen let a. king step
down from his throne, lay aside sceptre
and crown, divest himself of his human
form, and voluntarily become a toad,
and you have an illustration of the act
of Jesus to which our text refers.
Ihe eveninir theme was "The Timslv
advent of Jesus."
Text "For when we were vet withor t
strength, in due time Christ died for the
ungodly." Rom. V, 6.

A resident clergyman, who has a keen
relish for humor, tells of an incident in
the professional experience of a clerical
friend. The clergyman referred to had
been engaged to perform the marriage
service, and the expectant bride and
groom were standing before him in the
church. The service had proceeded as
far as the question:
Wilt thou take this woman to be thy
wedded wife?"
No response being made, the question
was repeated a little more emphatically :
"Wilt thou take this woman to be thy
wedded wife?"
"Eh ah beg pardon. Were you
speaking to me, sir?"
He was assured of the fact; and having
regained consciousness the twain were
