found on his place between 8 p. m. and
7 a. m. Cattle broke into ' his grounds
last night and destroyed all his roses and
did a lot oi other damage and patience
has ceased to be a virtue with him:
There is a lot of breachy cattle around
the city that keep breaking into the well
kept gardens of our residents and some
thing should be done to stop it. It is
rather expensive feeding cows on clover,
roses and pansies, and no matter how
much fun it may be' for cattle, people
, who have nice yards don't like to fur
nish that kind of - food for milch cows
belonging to their neighbors.

The general public don't take much
stock in the excursion trams to be run
to the encampment - by - the U.- P. j next
week. Passengers who are unfortunate
enough to go on the trains will find they
have a good half mile to walk after they
get offthe' train; and while they are
walking they might just as well go afoot
from The Dalles. There will be a num
ber of teams belonging to our citizens
running between this ' city and the en
campment ground, and they should be
patronized in preference to the railroad.
How the Boys Will Come.
Fossil Journal.
Co. E ill start in four wagons on Fri
dav morning at 7 o'cloc k. Capt.i Wilcox
wrote to Capt. Gaffney proposing that
the Fossil boys go as far as Condon Fri
day and camp there over night, and then
start on Saturday morning with the Con
don boys, who propose making the trip
to Arlington the same day, but Co. E
preferred to go as far as practicable the
first day, and more evenly, divide the
two days' journey. They will probably
camp at Clem Friday night, and reach
Arlington in time to rest there some
time before taking Saturday's midnight
train for The Dalles. Every . man must
Erovide his own rations to Arlington,
ut we think from a perusal of the
orders that the price of the same will be
refunded by the state. If not, it is an
imposition and will be denounced as
such. Between here and Arlington four
meals will be required.
H Co., 3d Reg. O. N. G. will leave
Condon Saturday morning, June 27, and
will take the midnight train of that day
at Arlington for The Dalles, where they
will join their regiment in a six days'
camp of instructions;

Miss Jarbean discoursed interestingly
upon tights. I don't suppose I shall
ever again wenr 'full' tights that's
what we call out-and-out tights, you
know though I've made . some of my
best hits in them. When a woman once
gets in the way of wearing tights she
can't help longing to keep on . acting .in
them. You can't imagine the glorious
exhilaration of. being in tights, with no
skirts to get in one's way to occupy one's
mind. But there's one'thing I won't do
or allow any woman iri my company to
do, and that is, appear in tights and a
decollette bodice at the same time.
' -Yes, it's true ' that I trained those
kids in 'Strrligjit' myself. The secret of

can do a little of everything. I've sup
ported Mojeska, you know, and played
Shakespeare. I have some confidence
in my imitative faculties. I can usually

Eossil Journal.
EETTJEW OP THE LOCAL MAKKET
The week's business . has had an in
creased activity over the.preeeeding one.
The large ' number , of , wool-owners ' and
the appearance on the streets of. people
from the interior, preparatory to the ap
proaching harvest, has made an improve
ment in our trade center and large quan
tities of merchandise have been sold to
consumers. Prices have been main
tained in all lines save a decline of one
half ' a cent on coffee which shows a
weakening tendency since last report.
WOOL SITUATION.
The wool market has been quite active
I during the week and more movement is
noticed than at any other time during
the season, partly for the reason that
there hav"e been more buyers and a
yielding tendency on the part of sellers,
who have held for extreme prices for
their clip. While there is a disposition by
large wool growers, to hold, their are
those of smaller .. . pretentions, . who
are selling, as their financial condi
tion does not warrant them . in re
fusing to sell ; and such are let
ting their wool go at fair rates,
which range from 13 to 17 cents, accord
ing to shrinkage. We are reliably in
formed that some wool growers of the
southern portion of Eastern Oregon are
hauling their wool over the mountains
to the Willamette towns and selling it as
valley wool, realizing valley prices, the
buyers seeing no difference in quality or
staple, between this and valley wools.
If this is the case, why is there a dis
tinction between Eastern Oregon and
valler wools? Certainly Eastern Oregon
grades are as high or higher than Will
amette valley grades.
In the produce market there is not
much to report save it is well supplied
with all kinds of fruits and vegetables
and prices are less firm. Strawberries
are sold in the city at 6 to 8 cents per
box. Cherries are at their best and sell
at 5 to 8 cents per pound. Raspberries
and all other kinds of small fruits are in
light demand. Turnips, onions, carrots,
peas, string beans and beats are in over
supply. New potatoes have taken the
place of old and are selling from 1 to 2
cents per pound.
MISCELLANEOUS MARKET.
The market is feeling the scarcity of
eggs, and some dealers are paying 22
cents per dozen in cash and 25 cents in
trade. Good, fresh, ranch butter, is in
less supply with an upward tendency.
Some dealers talk of an advance in price
but as yet none bas been made since
last quotations. The market is still
quite well, supplied with poultry at for
mer prices $2.50(S$3.25.
The outlook for future prices of wheat
is the most encouraging to our formers.
Already 75 cents per busbel is spoken of
as the opening of the new market.
The Dalles wheat market is steady at
80 cents per bushel.
