Complaints are made at this office that persons who have trimmed or cut down their fruit trees because of their being infested with the fruit pest, , very fre quently have, the infested, branches, sent down to the river bank, to lie in the sun and breed more pests.. Why not, it is asked, burn them at once, and get rid of both the pest and the branches? ' - ' -.. Farming is encroaching on - the stock ranges throughout Wyoming, the Dako tas,. Montana, Texas and in fact, nearly everywhere therefore the prices which meats will command in the future must be higher than they have been in past years. v nn mis state 01 snairs existing, now is certain! v a good time- to engage in -stock raising, and those who go into cattle and sheep raising now must derive profits from the business in the future. Ochoco Review. The annual meeting of the Kellapie Lawn Tennis Club, was -held last even ing at the residence of Mr. J. M. Patter son. The officers elected for the ensuing year are Messrs. N. C. Wilson, President ; I. N. Campbell' Vice President ; L. - D. Ainsworth,. Secretary. , . and .Treasurer. The club court is in excellent condition,' and the members are anticipating a very pleasant season. Isaac Joles has discovered and located, a iew mites west pi., tnis- city . and near, the mouth of Chenoweth creek, a ledge, of quartz that according to the ropinion of old miners who have seen samples' of ' the rock, gives evidence of very great richness in silver bearing qualities; Mr; Jples, today, forwarded samples, of, the rock to Denver, Colorado to have it tested and assayed. We shall be pleased -' to find that West Dalles has added a sil ver mine to its other attractions. "," . . Albany ,.in Linn county, is nearly as far from Portland as is The Dalles, but wheat is worth in Albany 7 cents, wtule in Tho DallM ,f. hnnoa Anlv. fiOlx f . -- i . . u a ."fc.. wu.r vd The .difference of 7J cents will not In .frequentli represent,- .allj Jther surplus profit- left, to the farmer after all ..ex penses are paid, and is accounted for by therfact that Albany has ' what The Danes has-not,-' "an open river to the sea.'.' r.O 7-.5 - - . - ..'.' f -T: One of the prettiest and most pleasing entertainments ever given in this-city j was the Grecian Tableaux, whichtook place in tbieVogt Grand last Wednesday evening. - Miss Grubbs had so thorough ly trained the. young, ladies,-, that .the whole programme of constantly chang ing scenes went through, without , hitch and the entire number of tableaux "were Recalled by the " audience. Next Satur n-day eveniag will be the last -chance - our citizens will have for seeing these tab - leaux and every seat in the Vogt Grand should be nlled. . A Poet Incog-nito. A circular letter has been placed in our hands addressed to the "Rev. Joseph MacEachern," by the only original and genuine Joe MacEachern in these parts, which in part reads as iollows: "As your name has been banded in to us as an occassional writer of poetry we desire you to forward us at your earliest con venience a few of your short poems, and you will be' given a fair representation in 'Local and National Poets of . America,' of a short sketch and one or more . selec tions from your poems." - The letter, is written from an eastern town, where, it would seem Mr. MacEachern , is better known than he is here, but it is very surprising to us and very complimentary to his extreme modesty that during an eight years residence , in The Dalles he should have been- able to conceal the fact that he is. not only a "retired minis ter" but a poet to boot. It' will be readily admitted that Mr. MacEachern paid the writings of the Chronicle man a very high compliment when we inform our readers that he wanted to borrow our modest little threnodv entitled "An Epitaph" which he desired to send to writer., in lieu of one of his own produc tions, so that through the renown he would be sure to receive' by assuming its authorship he might shine the more brightly in the galaxy of "The Local and National Poets of America." . How Oregon Wu Named. At a banquet given in Portland the other night Barney Goldsmith said that the name Oregon was derived from an Irishman named O'Regan, who, first discovered this country and named it after himself. , He said he .first learned this fact from Geo. Knaggs, of The Dalles "a most truthful man who settled at The Dalles about the year 1530, who lives there yet, hale and hearty and as. truth ful as ever,'r. and who' informed' Mr. Goldsmith that he was a passenger, . In the ship commanded . by Sir Francis Drake in the early i. part of 1579. IfcLr. Goldsmith further testifies that Knaggs came out, to this country to hunt and fish i and that; while, the; early .settlers were sometimes given toexagge ration. Knaggs was not one of that kind, and is not liable to have made a mistake. All this may be new to the people of Portland but it is very old tip this way., . ; ..... . ;1 f I i ,-'- i '?IKDV jiV S-fj, Vf--.

The biggest haul Marshal Gibons ever made he made this morning 'about 8 o'clock. , A young fellow, who had been painting the town a bright Vermillion all last night, was this morning arrested at the East End. When arrested he was simply fighting drunk and gave the marshal, considerable trouble to, bring him to the cooler. - The excitement con nected with his arrest and. his vigorous struggles attracted a. crowd of .about twenty persons who followed the marshal and his prisoner through the corridor of the city jail to the inside. .The marshal and Sam.iThurman, who was in ' the Tearjlquietly stepped back and ; locked the crowd in, but General J., H.

This can always be done if you choose to, as nature in her kindness to man gives timely . warning and plainly tells you in nature's way, that as a punishment for some indiscre tion, you are to be afflicted with a" cold unless you -choose to ward it off by prompt action. The first symptoms of a cold, in most cases, is a dry, .- loud cough and sneezing. The cough is soon followed by a profuse watery expectoration and the sneezing by a prosuse watery dis charge from the nose. In severe cases there is a -thin white coating on the tongue. What to do? It isonly necessary to take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy in double doses every hour. That will greatly lessen the severity rof . the ; cold. and in most cases iwill effectually: counteract 4t, and cure what would have been a severe cold within one or two days time.

It is no sees than a horse that bears in its left eye a perfect picture-of the waterfall at Spo kane Falls. " The eye has been seen and examined by hundreds of persona, -and closely compared by them with photo graphs and other pictures of the falls, and no one has yet failed to pronoance it m correct picture. - In discussing the matter with a re porter Mr. Dillman said: - "Mr: Deakin sent the horse down to the hotel where I stopped in order that I might see htm. The horse is white in color and of medium size. I .was some what skeptical about the story until I looked into the animal's left, eye, when I beheld a perfect, reproduction of a part of , the falls of the Spokane, riyer as true to life as the beet photographs, f . ' ,H "The part of tbe.falla. shown, is horn the. water works across to the milla. The island on which the water works stand is also shown.., .The picture is absolutely perfect in every detail. . The, horse was sold in St. Paul with - a number, of other horses, and. the wonderful . picture in his eye was not discovered until after he had passed into the possession . of Mr. Deakin. ... , , 1'Handreds of people have viewed the horse, and-Mr: Deakin has received an offer of $7,000 for him, which he prompt ly refused. - He also received a flattering offer to exhibit the anhnal in the princi pal towns of Montana. No such a phe nomenon, or whatever it may be called, was ever beard of before, and tbe horse will prove a . great advertisement to Spokane Falls when placed on exhibi tion.
