Know Why It Never Cn Off. v ",Thb Dali-bs, Or., July 6, 1891. ; : Editob '. Chronicle; The citizen's of The . Dalles have " again ;y incurred . the odium' of the people from, the surround ing country. The . citizens welcomed here to witness the celebration of the 4th went away disgusted because they did not see .the promised "sham battle" which was to he the drawing card of the day. For this reason the country peo ple and visitors unite in one voice con demning' our people and the committee of arrangements for this omission from the published order of exercises. I my self at my place of business have heard farmers who are my best customers say that they thought they were imposed upon and lured into The Dalles by the false promises of the 4th of July com mittee. Some of the same people came into the city for no other purpose than to view the sham battle and they wish to know why ' the battle did not take place as advertised on every barn door door and fence in Eastern Oregon. Now I think, as far as I know, that it is wrong to censure the merchants of our city for the failure of the battle to take place, because they subscribed lib erally for the celebration. The blame should be placed where it belongs, ' not on the people of The Dalles but either on the committee of arrangements or on the officers of the 3d regiment. These parties should make some explanation to the visitors. . I have another grievance. Why did not the processson go through the streets mentioned on the programme? Whose fault is this? I spent a few hours dec orating my business house on Second street but the procession did not come near me and avoided one of the best business blocks in the city. As a tax payer and subscriber to the celebration fund I would like to know j why our wishes were not carried out. An explanation should be given either by the committee or by the officers of the militia. Merchant. - For Sale.

An ld friend of -mine-;;-1 recently .dead.1 who had often heard him'1 and "remem bered him perfectly, assured me,' how ever, that he was a great power fifty year . ago. and he believed that 'his oratorical triumphs hardly received full credit in those days.w ... ..... Macaulay himself said that one of his chief defects as a pnblic speaker was his extraordinary- rapidity of utterance, which spoiled the effect of his words. His speeches resembled carefully pre pared essays, delivered with incredible rapidity and some want of impressive ness, rather than the spontaneous out burst of the orator's fnll heart. Fluency and great facility In finding the right words are not an nnmixed gain to the speaker.- .Appropriate pauses and - em phasis are eveu more important, other wise1 a torrent of words' lacks impress iveness. - Then the management of the voice counts for very much. A speech thAt flows on like'a rope unwound from a cyl inder is not a good one. Again; to be successful a npeecb must be enlivened with anecdotes or humor. People can always read fur solid instruction, but a platform speaker must amuse and please rather than teach. Gentleman's. Mag azine. A Smart Toon Fellow. : "There are pretty smart people travel ing nowadays." remarked a Hibernian driver of a Fourth avenue car a few days ago. "and we carmen now and then meet some of them. A young fellow with cuffs on his shoes boarded my Car at Twenty- third street.' He carried a grip, and I put him down as a matter-of-fact business man. He wan in a hurry, and says he Lay your whip on those horses: I'm goin to Hartford, and want to get to the Grand Central station in five min utes.' He spoke in such a commanding way that 1 asked him who he was. 'I'm the first vice president of this road, old man.' says he, and I want you to obey my order.' Without further ceremony I got my horses into a lively trot, and people on the avenue must have thought that the car had an electric motor as well as the horses. . "In the space of a few minutes I was at the station, and I hoped my passenger would put a quarter in my hand for my obedience. Well, sir, that young man jumped from the platform, and after he did so he turned around, made an offen sive gesture - with his hand, and said. 'Old man. yon can now drive to the devil.' I was greatly annoyed at the trick, and would have punished him for his im position hut for his outdistancing me. I think he was an actor who was late for his train. New York Times.
