Again Sueceaftfal.
Some time ago the Chkonicxk 'pub
lished an account of a foot race in Cali
fornia among the state . university
students in which Mr. Ed. Mays, son of
Hon. Robt. Mays,: of this city was the
successful contestant. Last week the
Berkley boys had some more running
arfd in a race of 440 yards between S. V.
Casady of the Olympic club and Ed.
Mays of '93, the latter won in fifty-five
seconds to the great delight of the uni
versity boys. .
; The San Francisco Call of last Sunday
in giving a report of the university races
has this to say of them :
Another event, which was an all-absorbing
one, though the existing records
were not approached, was the 440-yard
run, open scratch, between S. V. Casadv,
O. A.! C, and E. Mays, '93. The men
are old' opponents on I the cinder-path
and had met before, Mays on that occa
sion carrying off the laurels. It was
supposed that this victory had engend
ered feeling between the men, and that
report spreading, as such rumors usually
do, had the effect of centralizing the
interest of all the amateur talent on the
grounds upon the twelfth event in yester
day's programme. "
The race was won in a jog by Mays in
55 seconds, three seconds slower than
his former time, the present University
Club record. After the race was awarded
to Mr. Mays it was represented to him
that he had fouled his oppodent by
striking him on the. leg, which showed
evidence of the fact by a slight scratch.
Upon hearing of this he voluntarily re
quested the judges to award the race to
Mr. Casady, claiming that he fouled
him unintentionally,' but the judges, at
Mr. Casady 's request, refused to allow
the same. ,-
Circuit Court Notes.
In the circuit court this morning a de
cree of divorce was ' granted to Nellie
Orsborn from her husband, Marion
Orsborn.
Judgment was allowed in the sum of
$1000 against G. T. and L. H. Prather in
favor of J. R. Dawson.
The case of Bower against Hauser, in
volving the price of a horse, valued at
$125 was on trial as we go to press, and
is likely to occupy the rest of the day.
Eighteen witnesses have already been
examined and at least half a dozen more
have been subpoened. The case came in
on Friday afternoon and was continued
till 10 :30 p. m. of that day.
Colonel Hin Coming.
Col. Bain, who is justly-considered the
finest orator on the American platform,
will lecture in The Dalles on the 6th
and 7th of June. The lectures will be
"Safe Side of Life for Young Men" and
"Drink the Enemy of Labor and Busi
ness." Truly may it be said, that it is
not often in a life time that the people
have an opportunity of hearing a roan so
wonderfully gifted. Miss Willard says
of him: "To a pictorial memory, a keen
incisive judgment and a sunlit imagina
tion, Mr. Bain adds a pleasing presence,
faultless manner, and voice of mellow
compass and subtlest sympathy."
. O. D. Taylor Heard From.
The Buffalo (N. Y.) Express of May
26th says "that Rev. O. D. Taylor of
The Dalles, Or., will preach at the
Dearborn street Baptist church at 10 :30
a. m. today, after which he will ask for
pledges to cancel the church's indebted
ness, amouting -to about $2,400." It
seems the appeal was succesful as a
private letter from Buffalo since received
informs us. The amount raised was
$3,100 and the church there id much de
lighted with Mr. Taylor's efforts.
' Saturday's Baseball Game.

A large,' fine-looking man was visitfng
the Ashland ladies recently, selling them
seeds for an improved clematis vine that
blossomed out into a f ower as large as a

talk and pretentious ceremony he suc
ceeded in planting a box of his seeds in
the gardens of a large number of Ash
land's flower-loving ladies, taxing them
a fee of fron$l upwards. He did well.
The seeds are also doing well, after con

Central Office, Portland, Oregon. )
eastern oregon weather.
Cooler, partly cloudy weather with
general rains prevailed since Tuesday;
Sunday and Monday were very wrm
with east winds. The rains was heavier
in Union county than in other sections.
On 25th and 26th thunder storms were
quite general. On the 26th a south wind
of unusual severity was experienced in
parts of Gilliam county, especially at
Arlington, which did some damage. The
rain-fall amounted to from .10 to .45 of
an inch. South of the Blue mountains
especially in Crook and Grant counties
the weather is yet cool and season back
ward. caors.
The rain was of inestimable benefit
and value to the wheat crop.' The east
winds did some damage in parts of Uma
tilla, Morrow, and Wasco counties. The
effects of the rain is supposed to offset
the damage. The rains have revived the
excellent wheat prospects throughout
this section. Fruit is well Bet and thriv
ing well. Strawberries are becoming
plentiful. General prospects for crops
of all kinds, are at the present time most
flattering.' B. S. Pague,

Death, of Judge JT. H. Bird.
The fluctuating hopes and fears that
have filled the minds of the many,
friends of Judge J. H. Bird, have at last
been set at rest forever by the announce
ment of his death at Passadena, Cali
fornia, yesterday morning at il o'clock.
Judge Bird was born in this city about
36 years ago. His aged and grief-stricken
mother, to whom he was everything
that an affectionate son ought to be, still
survives him. The judge was a man of
generous and kindly impulses. No man
had a warmer spot in the hearts of those
who knew him best. His tender solici
tude and generous care for his widowed
mother was alike honorable to his head
and heart. Judge Bird was educated in
the Willamette university and studied
law under the late Judge Whitten of this
city. He was admitted to the-bar in
1880 in the same class with Senator
Watkins, Hon. F. P. Mays and Judge A.
8. Bennett. His ability soon placed
him in theiront ranks of his profession,
and five years ago he was elected judge
of the Seventh judicial district. No man
ever sat upon the bench whose decisions
were more just or more universally re
spected. More than a year ago his
health gave way and symptoms of the
dread disease consumption were mani
fested. He removed to the milder
climate of San Diego, California, where
he remained till about two months ago
when he changed to Passadena. While
the genial air of Southern California may
have prolonged his life, as the result
proved, it could not stay the progiess
of the disease. His remains will be
brought to. this city , for interment, and
are expected to leave Passadena today
and arrive . here about next Thursday
morning. ..
Some Fine Cattle. .
Mr. WVF. Alexander a brother of Mr.
Geo. W. Alexander, late of Wapinitia,
has just arrived from his home in Mis
souri, bringing with him a very choice lot
of thoroughbred and short' horn and
Devon cattle and a thoroughbred running
stallion and mare. These animals are
to be added to the herd and stud of Mr
Joseph Trippeer, of Wapir.itia. About
two years ago Mr. Trippeer imported
sixty head of Devon and Shorthorn cat
tle and a few thoroughbred running
horses. His success has been such as to
encourage turn to continue in the busi
ness. His sales have been widely dis
tributed all over Eastern Oregon. Last
fall he Bold five head of thoroughbred
Devon bulls to Curtis C. Strong of Port
land. Mr. Trippeer thinks a cross, be
tween the Devon and Shorthorn makes
the best cattle for all purposes in the
world. Last fall his cattle came off the
range in better condition than any oth
ers in his neighborhood.
Mr. Trippeer has now a stud of six
teen thoroughbred runners. The new
stallion is of the Ariel stock and is
registered in Bruce's stud book. Mr,
Trippeer intends to have a full exhibi
tion of his stock at the next district fair.
The Chronicle heartily wishes him the
success he deserves for improving the
stocK or-eastern uregon.
A Credit to Oregon.
Little Mary Roberts, who has been to
the Asylum for the Blind, at Salem,
paints a delightful picture of that . insti
tution. She entered its doors last Sep
tember, and returns able to read point
print as rapidly as anybody reads a book.
She became quite an adept at type-writing,
and she has learned to sew so well
that she expects Boon to enter the em
broidery department. She is a very in
telligent little girl, and it is touching to
hear her tell how truly and why. the in
mates all love Mrs. and Miss McFadden,
Miss Olive Copwell, Miss Scott, the
music teacher, and Mr. Gardener, the
net and hammock teacher. The insti
tution is trying to get all the blind little
ones, and why should it not? It is the
best home on earth for them. The state
supports the teachers, and the little ones,
with their intellects and sympathies de
veloping among their own class, leel less
keenly their common misfortune. Be
sides, they learn there to be self-supporting.
That institution is a credit to Ore
gon. Klamath County Star. . .
The leaders of the third-party cause at
Washington profess to have direct assur
ances that Senator Stanford, of Cali
fornia, is ready to put himself at the
head of their movement, with all that is
therein implied, and that he will be the
standard bearer of the alliance, or
-people's party, in 1892.. Some of the
alliance leaders claim to be authorized
to make public the alleged- fact that
Senator Stanford. considers he holds his
great foi tune ., simply..' as , "steward for
these people. ,r. .
Who Is the Traitor T
The directors of The Dalles, Portland
& Astoria Navigation : com pany have
been quietly making arrangements for
the charter or purchase of a boat for a
connection below the Cascades and
thOUSrht theV hStrl RIIOISiMiw linf ortm
traitor in camp- gave their plan! away,
and Thursday night last the Union
Pacific railroad : bought the boat the
directors expected to secure and have
tied it up as they did the Baker last fall,
presumably for fear of the floating ice.
Some one in The Dalles has proved a
traitor to the best interests of this city
and the farmers of the interior and time
will tell who he is.
Not Entitled to Repayment.
Acting commissioner Stone has
written the land office at this nlace that
"parties who fail to comply with the
law underwhich they have made their
entries, within the time prescribed by
law, are not entitled to repayment of
fees, commissions or purchase money."
