Press Dispatches
LOCAL KKBVITIKS.
General Jauies A. Varney ia in the
city.
Mnmiwi-s of Wasco Lodge No. 15, A.
F. & A. M. will find something to their
interest in another column.
Snow commenced falling yesterday
afternoon and up till this morning four
inches and a half bad fallen.
The Chronicle is indebted to the
courtesy of Col. W. E. McArthur of
Washington, D. C, for valuable docu
ments received. i
Do not forget that the Mendelssohn's
were in Portland last night and will be
here at the court house tonight. Posi
tively one night only.
There is one thing the Chkonicle has
. done that no other paper ever did ; it
has forced the Sun to admit that the
proprietors of the Chronicle are com
posed of the best citizens of The Dalles.
A few more breaks like that will cook
' "the editor's goose. .
Mr. P. T. Sharp and Miss Gracie will
leave Monday morning for California to
spend the winter. Mr. Sharp goes for
the benefit of his health which has been
. quite poor for some time. Miss Sharp j
will remain.- They, go to Mr. Sharp's
brother at Stockton. Mr. Sharp hopes to
return in February.
There will be services of the Congre
gational church tomorrow (Sunday) at
11 o'clock. Subject of the sermon, "The
uses and lessons of winter." Sunday
school at 12 :15 ; Young Peoples Society
of Christian Endeavor at 5 -.30. Union
services at 7 p. m. with sermon by Rev.
O. D. Taylor, pastor of the Baptist
church.
Somebody has said that a newspaper
that is not a fighter will never be much
of a success. If the converse ' of this is
true the Astoria Town Talk must be a
verv successful journal. Not long ago it
had to answer to a libel suit but it got
nfF unscathed. It had scarcely recov
ered its breath from the big fight over
the citv election in which it again came
off with- flying, colors when it had the
Astoriau chief of police arrested lor
threatening to kill the publishers. As
the threat was conditioned on tne puD
lication of an article which, however,
the Talk did Dubhsh. the chief was dis
charged. The publishers were all alive
at last accounts, but the editor says ne
Vina learned that it is useless to CTO to
law with the devil and hold the court in
hell.
On Christmas eve the ' store of E.
Jacobsen & Co. was filled to the doors
with a large uumber of the friends and
customers of that popular firm, the oc
casion being the drawing for tne elegant
shaving set and beautiful dressing case
for which the firm have been distribut
ing tickets to their customers during the
last week. At 9 :30 Miss Prudence Pat
terson was lifted on a counter and drew
out of the box containing the coupons
number 316, which entitled tne noider
of that number to the shaving set. Mr.
John Brnhlnian, was the lucky man,
" and being present t he. set was at once de
livered to him. Then the coupons for
the dressing case were placed'in the box
and Miss Patterson drew number 307,
which entitles the holder of that ticket
to the dressing case. If the lady holding
that number . will present the same at
the store of E. Jacobsen & Co.. she will
receive the case. The drawing passed
oil pleasantly and tne nrm are mgniy
nleased. Over a thousand tickets on
each case had been distributed to the
lady and gentleman callers at their store
during the last week and . this is only
one evidence of the fact that this firm is
in the lead. They bad an immense
holidav trade and deserved it as first
class goods and reasonable prices should
have their . reward. By actual count
Avar three hundred persons were in the
store at the time of the drawing.
A ri' alarm of fire was sounded this
forenoon which proved to be a burning
floe in a house belonging ' to Hugh
Glenn, corner of Liberty and Sixth
atreeta. The fire was promptly extin
guished by neighbors before much dam
age was done.
There will be Methodist services to
morrow as follows : Class meeting at 10
a. m., preaching to the children at n,
on the subject of "The Star in the East,"
and Sunday school at 12 :20. These ser
vices are held in the brick school house.
EDWorth League at 5 :30 p. m. in Y. M.
C. A. Hall. Union services at the court
house at 7 p. m.
A eood ioke is told at the- expense of
Henry Villard, who is a prominent free
trader. While the BlciUniey Din was
pending in congress, . negotiations were
opened with a German brewing syndi
cate for the purchase ot z,uuu acres oi
Northern Pacific land and the terms
were agreed' to conditioned on the pas
sage of the bill. The Northern i-acinc
is now advertising its lands and advoca
ting the production of barley, urging as
an inducement the advantages to oe de
rived in the production of this cereal
under the new law. ' .
The A. O. U. W. Christmas Tree.
The Christmas tree of Temple Lodge
No. 3 A. O. U. W., was held Christmas
eve in the K. of P., hall and was a com
plete success. The hall was well filled.
The tree was loaded down and two large
tables piled up with Christmas presents.
A special feature was a drawing of pres
ents given by the lodge. The first prize
was a large album and was won by Mrs.
King. The. second, a silver butter " dish
was won by Mrs. James Harper. The
third was a silver pickle dish an 1 was
won by Mrs. W. N. Wiley. The - fourth
a set of china cups and saucers was won
by Mrs. R. F. Gibons. A prize draw
ing was offered to girls under twelve
years, of a handsome doll. It was won
by Mias Cassie Wiley. A like drawing
for boys under twelve, resulted in Master
Reese obtaining a large, boy's express
wagon. Rev. "W. C. Curtis opened the
proceedings in a neat and appropriate
speech and the company separated about
nine o'clock after having spent a most
enjoyable time. The Christmas tree
was pronounced one of the finest ever
seen in this city and it seemed as if every
one left the hall with arms loaded with
paesents.
