Mrs. Simon Mason of Wamic came into town last Saturday to obtain med ical advice and was the guest of Mrs. A. M.Walker. Up to the hour of going to press today, twenty-one new names were entered on the subscription list of the daily and weekly Chronicle. , - The portage railway commission con sisting of Governor Penhoyer, Secretary of State McBride and State Treasurer ' Metcham paid a visit of inspection to the Cascade Locks last week. Several cases of diphtheria are reported in Crook county. Two children of John Savage, Who lives two miles from Prine ville, have died, and another was dan gerously ill, at last accounts. . Mr. V. H. Mo.Atee, son of Mr. Ben C. McAtee who has been at South Bend, Wash., since the first of May, passed . through the city today on the way to his home in Tygh Valley. He has come back to stay. ' The Milton Eagle says that there is no word iu the English language to rhyme with music. The Eagle is away off. We have a man in this county whose name, is Busic. And for anything we know .he's fond of music. - How is that for a starter? The Walla Walla Journal lately said of a visiting base ball nine that they played like Chinamen," arid some of the papers up that way are real mad about it, and yet we presume not a man of them except tne Journal man, ever saw a Chinaman play base ball. Dealers in cigars would do well to ' re member that according to a law passed by the last congress any persson who sells - cigars to a customer, in any other way than from a properly stamped box, leaves himself liable to a fine of $100. Handing cigars to a customer in a -glass or on a plate or tray or laying a handful before him, from which to make his selection, is a breach of section 2602 of ' the revised statutes of the United States Nineteen persons were - arrested . in Milton last Monday charged with crimi nal trespass, alleged to have been com mitted on the property of J. B. Mahana. In 1889 the plaintiff constructed a dam In the Walla Walla river which the de fendants, a short time ago destioyed, claiming that they had a prior right to the .water and that they were damaged by the obstruction which turned an over plus of water away from the main chan nel of the stream. Mrs. Frank Menefee returned from a four week's visit 'to Portland, Saturday. Mr. J. J. Filbin, late of the Sunday Bystander, Butte,' Mont., has taken charge of the Chbonicle office, as fore man. ' 1 ' -. . Mr. and Mrs. H. W. Wells of Sherar's Bridge, who have been in the city for the past week, left for home thi after noon. " Two hobos and one drunk were the fruit of the labors of Con Howe last night. The drunk alone paid his fine and was discharged. Mr. C. L.v Phillips has the thanks of the editor of the Chbonicle, for a nice mess of trout which be brought with him from Hood River. A carload of beef cattle belonging to E. J. Cooper, of Union , was . fed today at the slock yards. They will be shipped this evening to Portland. - Mr. and Mrs. C- L. Phillips and Mr. Gefl.' Joles and Mra. .Frank Taylor re turned from the Joles Camp, Hood River, Saturday. They report having had - a fine enjoyable time. . . . -. , A friendly trial of speed was made . last Saturday, on the race track, between the horses of Messrs. Schenck, Thomp son, Webster, Savage, Garretsou, Toiri Ward and F. B. Wyers. These are some of the fastest horses in Eastern Oregon. Thompson's Anita has a record of 2:37, Tom Ward's pacer can go like Sam Hill, Garretson's can trot in less than three minutes ;v yet Boney Wyers came iu second best, .i That is Boney says so, but the story lacks a whole lot of confir mation. , . ; , ' The Fobs i I Journal says that itearhs from good authority that the U. P. com pany has put a force of men to work dig ging for coal on Butter Creek and that every 'available man in the vicinity is being hired and sent to the mines. The company has long had an eye oh Butter Creek to which place it will not cost much to build a road from Heppner. It has already spent a tidy sum of money in searching for coal at that place and the Journal fears that the new move ment may delay the development of the Fossil mines. ' . , Mrs. Slusher of Dufur is in the city. Deputy Sheriff J. H. Phirman returned yesterday from a seven day's trip to Harney county. He brought with him a young fellow about sixteen years of age well known in' the Tygh country, named1 William Jordan, son of Jim Jordan, for merly a rancher on Jordan Creek. Young Jordan is charged with having stolen a horse from William Floyd and another from Gabriel Deckert. He was arrested within thirty-five miles of Burns just as he was saddling a horse to go fur ther south. He was to have an " exami nation before Justice Schutz this after- on. Last week Ed. Mills, the gentlemanly bookkeeper of Filloon Bros., packed his valise for a trip to Collin's Landing and left it in the office, ready to take it with him on the boat next morning. During Mr. Mills' absence from the office, Jno. Filloon and A. C. Sanford managed to crowd into it a lot of old greasy castings, two old tobacco pipes without stems, a pair of superannuated shoes, a few cigar stubs, a dried out plug of tobacco that had been kicked around the office for the past two years, a lot of last year's almanacs, and a miscellaneous assort ment of advertising cards, dodgers etc., the whole weighing about fifty pounds extra. Ed. innocently carried the valise to tha boat and at the end of the trip packed it about a mile to the camp and never discovered the joke till he opened his valise in the presence of Geo. Filloon. Senator Watkins is making a record for himself, as a hunter, at the Joles Camp, Hood River. A few days ago, as he wandered through the surrounding woods he saw a wild cat about 75 yards ahead of him. Hesitating a little, as a careful hunter will, he saw it move and presently blink one of its eyes, as if to say "come on George." The senator drew a careful bead and blazed away. When the smoke, had cleared off the cat was etill there and the senator suppos ing it was dead walked toward it as he drew his clasp knife with the intention of skinning it. ' What was his surprise to find that the cat was nothing but the stump of a pine tree and the eye that blinked so wickedly was simply a hole that a woodpecker had made in it. An attempt was made last ' night to blow open the safe of Mr. J. T. Peters. By some . means the would-be safe cracker got the outer door of the safe open, and filling the key ' hole with powder attempted to destroy the lock, in this however he signally failed as the lock ' remains uninjured. An at tempt was also made to drive a punch through the steel plate of the inner door, but no harm was done beyond a few shallow indentations. The whole work bears evidence of having been clumsily done-and the contents of the safe re main uninjured beyond the fact that the edges of some papers were slightly scorched with powder. It was a fruitless attempt anyhow, as there was no money in the safe beyond a little change. Mr. Peters desires the Chbonicle to an nounce, for the benefit of. future safe crackers, that he never . keeps any money in the safe. He deposits his money in The Dalles National Bank and when any comes into . LL hands after banking hours he puts it in the Umatilla house safe. To - these two places safe crackers are politely referred. - Engineer Jac Rochford, of the run between Ashland and Dunsmuir, on the Oregon and California railroad, lost his 1 ife last Wednesday in a rather unusual manner When about two-thirds through the 1200-foot tunnel, near the summit of the Siskiyou mountains, the train, a double header, broke in two. A temporary coupling was made of chains which broke almost immediately. Roch for was on the first engine. There . was very little draught in the tunnel and what wind . there was blew the thick smoke of a fresh green fir wood fire into Roch ford's cab. The result was that both he and his fireman were completely asphyxiated. They were not missed off the engine till the train backed out of the tunnel. It was fifteen or twenty minutes before they were found and by that time Rochford was dead. One of bis arms had been severed from his body and he had bled to death. The fireman was dragged out unconscious but has since recovered. Joe Sylvester, familiarly 'known as Buckskin Joe, ou old-time acquaintance of the people of The Dalles arrived in town yesterday from California, coming by the way of the Siskiyou pass and the Barlow road. '. Joe" is. representing the San. Francisco firm of Coburn, Teyia & Co., manufacturers' agents and commis sion merchants.' : Joe travels in royal style, sure enough. "-. He'-'has a light wagon painted a wine color and -striped with gold. On the side of the " "wagon',, is, painted in shaded gold letters ihe name of the firm with the' words JiSapolioi, C. & ' S. and Peerless . Axle Grease and Alfred Wright's Fine" Perfumery." He drives three handsome horses two greys and a bay. The bay is a magnificent Kentucky horse named Barney which Joe delights to ride, without saddle- or bridle and. 'which "he .has several times refused $1000 for."." He is a fine intelli gent animal and performs a number of amusing tricks. Each horpe-is clothed with a blue cashmere blanket on each side of Which is wrought, in white wool letters the legend "Sapolio." ' The har ness is silver mounted, each saddle sur mounted with three silver "bells, and each horse besides carry s a set of sleigh : bells. A red plume waves from each horse's head and the whole is as tasteful and imposing an outfit as one could, well rind. Joe went, today, over to Goldendale, to remain till Wednesday, when he will return and parade the streets of the city. 1'ap C'Uandler on a Bicycle.. Bicycle riding is still the rage, and Pap Chandler has got the craze in its worst form. Regretting that he had no opportunity for taking lessons from Mr. Fee and Joe Fitzgerald he- has placed himself under the tutelage of John Filloon and A. C. Sanford and this morn ing he made his first mount in the ware house of Filloon Brothers. To sa v that it was a success is to put it mildly. The bicycle a safety was leaned up against a post in the warehouse, and a step lad der placed by the side of it. Pap man aged to "roll on" as his instructors put it, when relating the circumstance to a Chbonicle reporter. Then Pap shut his eyes and ground his teeth while his tutors held the machine firm against the post and then Pap "rolled off" and thus ended his first lesson. Buck skin Joe the king of the cow boys has arrjved in this city and will be out on the streets with his three. horse tandem-educated team next Wednesday. He represents Coburn, Tevis & Co., of San Francisco, Enoch Morgan Son's Sapolio and the celebrated C & S Axle grease and various other lines- of goods which have taken the lead everywhere he has been. He will give all his old time friends a call. Joe is well known in these parts. Be on the look out for him. - ' The complete development of Oregon as a stace demands three things above all others. First, the fullest establish ment of irrigation systems wherever pos sible.' Second, the opening of the Col umbia river ; and thirS the opening up of the interior by the completion of the Oregon Pacific and the construction of a railway diagonally across the state from Pendleton to the California line. When these are attained full measure of pros perity will come to this land so rich in soil and so favored in climate and not before. Pendleton Tribune. The little 3-year-old son of T. C.

As the flames went leap ing up the haymow the little fellow un concernedly walked out and explained, that he didn't intend to build such a large fire.
