Sunday was one of the brightest, pleas
antest winter days imaginable. It was
a small section of spring wafted up on
the zephyrs that woo the Japan gulf
stream, from the summer isles of the
eun-down seas.
A year ago at this time stockmen had
fed for a month and a half, and hay
stacks were growing small. This year
it has not been necessary to feed any
thing and there is plenty of hay to feed
all the stock in the county two months.

I . A tramp charged with stealing a pair
of field glasses from Skibbe's place was
arrested by the city marshal yesterday.
We understand the tramp had been
trying to sell the glasses and that there
is a strong case of "larceny from a dwell
ing" against him. '
The Indians at Hood River are catch
ing large quantities of the delicious trout
that are peculiar to that stream. . We
could find neither mark of hook nor

that the willy aborigine has built for
own pecuniary advancement a fish-trap.

Signor Cappola, a trapeze performer,
died at Port Towneend Wednesday, from
the effects of an accident that befell him
several weeks ago. His death was due
not so much to the latest injury as to
the consequence ' aggravation of an in
jury received several years ago. The de
ceased was an American by birth, and
. about 47 years of age.
The people of Eastern Oregon must
secure an "open river to the sea," and
thereby secure low freight rates if they
desire to have the country fill up with
people whose watchword is "progress."
Eastern Oregon will always be of small
importance if she allows corporations to
suck blood from her veins for the bene
fit of non-resident bondholders and
bloated millionaires. An "open river to
the sea" would do much to remove the
shackles that keep the country and her
people in a lethargic condition. East

James Brooks, charged with larceny
from a dwelling in stealing a pair of
field glasses from Skibbe's was examined
to-day before Justice Schutz and held to
appear before the grand jury.
This morning the heaviest fog of the
season settled down over the city. It
was of that variety which old timers
tell about, when the man building a
barn shingled out on the fog for fifty feet
before he discovered his mistake.
Six tramps who were hanging around
the depot yesterday stole a case of coal
oil from a box car and hid it under Salt-
marehe's store house. It is evident that
they meant mischief with it, as it could
neither be sold nor carried away. The
arrest of Brooks, one of the gang caused
the other to skip.
The water commission have nearly
finished their work on the water rates.
When the rates are fully decided on and
are ratified by the city council they will
become the established rates for con

have no other alternative but to collect
them as fixed by the ,council.
The state chamber of commerce which
met recently at Portland passed unani
mously a resolution requesting our mem
bers of congress to work for the imme
diate completion of the Cascade' locks,
by appropriating sufficient money to
complete them, and to have the same
taken from the hands of the war depart
ment and finished by contract. "
The persons who defined the boun
daries of the proposed new county of
Cascade made quite a serious mistake
but fortunately their error was discov
ered in time before the bill was intro
duced. They supposed they were follow
ing the dividing ridge between the head
waters of Mill creek and Hood river, but
they came over this side far enough to
include several ranches on Mill creek,
and some out in the head waters of the
Tygh. The eastern boundary will be
changed to correct this and follow as
nearly as possible the summit of the
ridge so that no one whose natural outlet
is The Dalles will be included in the
new county.

and, so far as her fortune is concerned,
she inherited fifteen million dollars from
her maternal grandfather, Prince Fred

wealth of father, the late King Charles

in 1860, as Queen of Sweden and Norway,

TRAINING - SCHOOLS - FOR NURSES.
Tno Hospitals in Knr Torit Oty Wkleh
j - Fit Men and Women for 1 ursine., ' '
The . BeUevue Training School, for
Nurses wes started on May 1, 1873, with
a superintendent and five nurses, having
five wards under their care. -'
In 1830 the school had 63 pcpils and
had graduated 845, while as a direct out
growth, of that modest beginning there
are three other great schools in New
York, alone. These are the New York
City, which has 64 pupils and has gradu
ated 263; the New York hospital, with
4S pupils and 193 graduates, and Mount
Sinai, with 50 pupils and 111 graduates.
There are also smaller schools in the
city, but, great or small, Bellevne must
always be honored as the pioneer. Her
graduate are at the head of most of the
important schools and hospitals in the
country, and have even gone so far
afield as England, Italy and China.
The next school to be established was
the New York city, which was started
by the commissioners of charities and
correction in 1877, and is entirely sup
ported by the city. Until 1889 it was
known s the Charity Hospital school,
because it began there, but as it grew
its work spread, until the old name was
misleading and had to be changed.
It is now the larsrest and in
spects the most important of all the
scnoois, as it nurses hve different hos
pitals Charitv and Matm-m tv cm 'Rln.V-
well's Island, the Infants' hospital on

vernenr Slip, and Harlem, at the foot of
East One Hundred and Twentieth
the two last being accident or emergency
hospitals, while at Charity the cases are
largely chronic. Besides the pupils of
the school ' there are thirtv-two
nent trained nurses at Charity and Ban-
oau s island, matting nearly a hundred
in all, for whom the surjerintenderit ia

Flail with Brass L&bls.
If any one engaged in sea fishing should
capture fish with brass labels tied to their
tails with aluminum wire or a black silk
cord an explanation will no doubt be
somewhat eagerly desired. There are
hundreds of fish so treated in the sea,
and it need not be concluded that prac
tical jokers have been at work. The
brass label is an indication that the fish
wearing it has been in the hands of the
grave men of science who are investigat
ing the habits, the food and the growth
conditions of fish In Scottish waters. Two
objects are served by the label attach
ment. - In the event of the fish being recap
tured by any one who will give informa
tion to the scientific cruisers of the Scot
tish fishery board on the Garland there
will be something known about its mi
gratory habits. Its rate of growth in a
state of freedom may also be investigat
ed It might be thought that the chance
of meeting with these labeled fish again
would be very small, but it appears that
the Garland cruisers themselves have re
captured 2 per cent, of the plaice and
18 per; cent, of the cod wearing 4heir
medals. But only plaice, cod and skate
were recaptured. The experiments, are
to be continued on a large scale. ' They
do not interfere with the health of the
fish, which when recaught ase plump and
in good condition. London Illustrated

John Is the Older.
Among a certain coterie in this city
more or less speculation was a short
time since going on concerning the rela
tive ages of Senator Charles B. Farwell
and his brother John V., the merchant
prince. It was of no use to consult the
public records, for they differed and
were not reliable. And as John Y.
simply shook his head and smiled in
answer to inquiries on the subject, and
as the senator when in Washington de
clined to express himself in writing, the
individuals interested were compelled to
let their thirst for knowledge continue
unslakened until the latter should re
turn. .When he did return he was ill,
but that was no obstacle, and upon gain
ing his presence the committee put the
question to him. The senator looked at
them for a moment, raised himself on
his elbow and replied in feeble tones:
"I was V6m first, bnt John is the
older."
Then he lay down on his pillow, turned
over, and the committee, bursting with
a plethora of information, withdrew.

A prominent citizen of St. Paul was in

ance whose ordinary condition was what
is known as impecunious. This time,
however, his face was fairly beaming.
"How are you?" he asked in a cheerful
bass voice as he extended his hand to the
man from St. PauL
"First rate. How are yon?"
"Splendid! Do you know" here he
dropped his voice to a confidential key
