Geo. W. Nesmeth post G. A. R. should
make arrangements to turn out and
welcome comrade Harrison upon his
arrival in The Dalles.
Our marshal, Mr. Gibons, keeps the

in a while a straggler finds his way to
the city, and then his lot is to be locked
up, which was the case last night.
The attempt to find out the ring lead
ers of the late tragedy is a waste pf time
and money. You might just as well
look for a needle in a hay stack. Walla.

Trade has fairly begun to make itself
known from the country, and our streets
shows an increase of activity and busi
ness life. Our merchants are seemingly
contented as all are as busy as can be.
It is said another physician will soon
arrive from the east to locate at Pendle
ton. His services are needed, as this
city has only about fifteen practitioners
already, and most of them are. kept very
busy killing time. Eaut Oregonian.
The la grippe, which was quite preval
ent in a mild form in the city for the'
past month, has nearly all disappeared,
and the usual healthy condition of our
people, is quite unsatisfactory to the de
ciples of Esonlapius.
There is still at this office a small
quantity of sugar beet seed which our
farmers should call and get at once and
try the experiment. It may prove of
great advantage to them, if this country
is adapted to its growth.
.Mr. W. C. Woodworth is in the city
visiting his son Mr. W. G. Woodworth.
Mr. Woodworth, Sr., is one of Oregon's
pioneers and has seen his adopted home
pass through its various stages of
' growth.
We are told that The Dalles in order to
secure the trade of Klickitat county, is
contemplating the establishment "of a
free ferry across the Columbia at that
point. It is said that almost the entire
trade of this country would be directed
to The Dalles if this was .lone, and as it
is valuable and constantly growing it
makes a plum worth striving for. Baker

Always Draws. j
The mention of the appearance of a !
company in a city, that has ever ap- j
peared here before, always creates com- J
ment as to its merits and imperfections.
That incompetent or snide companies
presents the wonderfully thrilling and
laughable play of Uncle Tom's Cabin to
the public, goes without saying. But the
McFadden mammoth pavilion double
Uncle Tom's Cabin company which ap
pears in this city on the beach back of
the Umatilla hotel one night, May 4, is
the renowned company that revolution
ized the feelings toward the Uncle Tom
play, so much so, that ever appearance
of this popular play is the signal for a
crowded house. . Watch for a street pa
rade, uniformed baud of twelve persons,
Uncle Tom's Cabin on wheels, Tom
Thumb's barouche in which is seated
little Eva, the powdered coachman, all
drawn by a pair of Shetland ponies ; two
Marks, two Topseys, four bloodhounds
not common curs traveling in their
own Pullman cars, everything indicating
the solid and first class company which
it is. More fun than any other show on
the road. Nothing said or done to shock
the feelings of the nioHt refined. Secure
seat early and avoid the rush. Reserved
seats now on sale at Snipes & Kinersly's.

Prepare fr the I'reHitlent.
Would it not be a good plan for the
board of trade to make some arrange
ment for the business houses to close, at
least a part of the forenoon of the day
that President Harrison and party are to
be here. 4 The band boys want to come
out and as many of them are business
men or clerks they will need some time
to get into their uniforms and get readv
for the reception. A move should be
made soon. The children of the public
school should all be marched- down and
gi' en a chance to see a real live presi
dent. There will be no time for long
speeches but fitting exercises, should at
least be had. If the business houses
could be closed from 10 until 1 o'clock,
everybody could be on hand to take part.
The President's Visit.
East OregoniHii.
The people of Eastern Oregon are in
vited to see the president at Pendleton,
the' leading city of Eastern Oregon, on
the afternoon of the 7th day of Mav at
four o'clock. It will be a bigger day in
Pendleton than the Fourth of July.
Thousands of ieople are coming to Pen
dleton on that day to see the chief
magistrate of this great nation and hear
him speak. It will be their first oppor
tunity to see so great a man as the presi
dent of the United States, and why
should they not take advantage of it. Of
course the president will receive a grand
reception, but no grander than the high
office which he occupies entitles him to.
He is only a man, but it takes quite a
respectable man to become president of
a nation of 65,000,000 of people, and a
democratic, free people, at that;

The hour when from the sun's most fervid height
Thy south is shed around me: bat the night
And the herald stars of eve are lovelies.
For life seems fairer under kindling skies.
And love still comes to man in tenderer trnisa -
Beneath the gracious influence of tbostars,
And in the dreamful night I leap the bars
Of sense and journey southward where then art.

A MOCKING BIRD'S LESSON.
In a Few Mlnnts It Learned Some Kev
Boondi But Forgot It's Clever Songs. .
"There he goes again!" groaned Mr.
George Phalen, a wealthy resident of
Highbridge. " "Was ever man cursed
with such a bird?"
. "Birdr exclaimed Mr. Phalen 's visitor
in astonishment. "Why, yon don't
mean to say you keep a bird with all
those cats in the honse?" For the -sudden
chorus of hissing, Bpitting and mewing
tbafcfloated in from the rear room seemed
to indicate that an animated feline argu
ment' was in progress there.
"There is no cat -under my roof," was
the reply. "All the noise you hear is
made by a single mocking bird. ' Just
step into tbe other room and look at him.
A more woebegone creature you never
saw."
The bird, indeed, looked as though he
had seen hard and long service. He had
no vestige of a tail left, and one of his
eyes was gone. His few feathers were
ruffled, and all his sleek and glorious
beauty had departed.
"Three years ago old Nick (that is his
name) was a remarkably handsome bird,"
said Mr. Phalen, "and his numerous ac
complishments made him a great favor
ite and very valuable. He could whistle
The Campbells Are Coming' and a
dozen other airs with wonderful clear
ness and musical precision, and he was
so clever that he could learn a new tune
in an hour. I would not have sold him
then for $500.
"But one night everybody in the house
was awakened by an awful uproar in the
back parlor. The mocking bird was
shrieking, shouting and swearing like a
human being; a cat, that most have en
tered by the cellar door, for we harbored
pone of his kind, was spitting and hiss
ing furiously, and the sound of some
heavy metallic object dashed frequently
and violently against the furniture was
distracting. I went down stairs with a
light, and I found that the cat's paw was
tightly wedged between the wires of the
bird's prison, and the terrified brute was
swinging the cage about the room, try
ing to release himself. - Old Nick was
nearly dead and badly dilapidated, as
you see him now, before 1 could disen
tangle the cat from the 'wires and kick
him out into the darkness.
"The bird's tail never grew again, nor
did his plumage regain its luster. . He
was qnite silent for a full week, and then
he suddenly made the air vocal with a
horrible series of caterwaulings, and he
has kept them up almost without inter
mission ever since. In the few dreadful
minutes that he passed face to face with
the cat he learned every intonation ol
voice that his assailant could teach him,
and utterly forgot all the songs and
speeches with which years of careful
tuition had1 enriched his mind. A poor
exchange, it seems to me." New York
