John Krcrger, a well-kuown farmer of Hood River, is in the city. . Two car loads of fine, fat hogs were fed today at the stock yards! Mrs. J. H. Cradlebangh of Hood River came up today on the noon pas senger. R. B. Wilson, traveling freight airnnt of the Northern Pacific railroad com-1 pany, is in the city. Miss Carrie .Strong,, who has been vis iting Mrs. B. S. Huntington for the past few days, . returned to her home in Portland this morning.- ' C. W. Rice, late stock inspecter of this county, now of Silverton, is here on a visit. We are much pleased to lt?arn that he has com pletelv recovered his I health. G. W. Flegg, of Eight Mile, informs us that the new grange hall at Eight Mile is now complete and that it will be opened on the third Saturday of this month with a grand gathering of grangers and basket festival. A number of Hood Piver people came up today to give testimony before Frank Mcnefee, referee, in a suit concerning certain water rights on Philps Creek, in which B. Warren is plaintiff and the Oregon Lumber company defendauts. A singular coincidence happened in connection - with the death of. Mrs. Stricklin, who' departed this life at Barlow's Gate.' in this county, on the 21st of December last. Mrs. Stricklin died, as we have said, on the 21st of December, and was buried on the 23rd. Her husband, William Stricklin, died on the 2l8t and was buried on the 23rd of December, 1879. ' J. A. Nicholson haa left at this office a small vial filled with what is known in the oil regions as the 5th stratum of oil bear ing sand rock. This particular sample was taken from a depth of 2200 feet in Wash ington county, Pennsyluania. Layer of this mall broken rock are found at intervals in the process of well boring, the oil being found in the layers. This applies to Pennsylvania and Ohio, while the rock is entirely absent from the Canadian oil fields. A Chapter of The Dalles' Hiatory. There ia not better record of the his tory of a community than its local news paper. Daily or weekly, as the case may be, passing events are recorded while the memory of them is yet "green. A single copy thus becomes a whole chapter' of the history of a community, a history that has an interest all its own, growing an intensity as we turn the files backward. A lady friend of the vh Ron iclw lias presented us with an old CODV of the weeklv VnunM 7, 1868 the only paper published at that time in this city , and one of the eignieen papers published m the state I and the only paper published in all Eastern Oregon. We have read it with intense interest and we believe a short summary of the history it gives na of The Dalles" of four and twenty years ago will not be uninteresting to our readers. The paper is a six column folio well and neatly printed and full of interesting matter. It tells us that William M nanu ia its puDiisner, mat tne office is in the post office building on Main street, upstairs,-that it is the United States official paper for Oregon and that its price is $3 a year,' six months $2, single copy, 25 cents. The list of pro leseionai . gentlemen on tne . nrst page shows the names of Drs. C. B. Brooks, T. B. Jackson and B. W. Mitchell. Attorneys O. N. Denney, of The Dalles, I. D. Haines, of Baker City, and C. H. Miller "Joaquin Miller," , of t Canyon City, who curiously enough says he will practice ia all the courts of Oregon "ex cept the county court of Grant county." (Since' writing the ; above we have learned that "Joaquin" -was at that time county judge of Grant county; hence the exception.) J. B. Condon has no card but in another place his name appears as attorney in a case in which John Williams was plain tiff and Jaines East defendant. J. G. Wilson was the circuit judge, N. R. Packard, county clerk ; "Thomas Howard sheriff; J. "W. Baldwin his deputy and E. P. Fitzgerald school superintendent; X. H. Gates has no card but his name appears as attorney fr Mary Harring ton who sues for a divorce from " her husband J. F. Harrington. E. Schutz was then conducting a dancing academy at $15 per quarter for adults and children $10, at which, "all the modern dances were taught." Besides the dancing academy E. Schutz was senior partner in the Jackson saloon, corner of Court and Second With S. Klein as junior. Frederick Benzer was running the' New York bakery on Main street, Ben . Kor ten was conducting the Chrystal saloon ! on Washington pt.rfipt-.. npvt. Hnnr tr French & Gilman., There were three meat markets, the City market on Wash ington and Third owned by Lau'ber & Co.,' the Washington market, corner of Court and Second by JohnMichaelbach, and The Dalles market southwhest cor ner of Washington and Second by Has tings & Hodge. Thomas Smith was running the Empire hotel on Main street, while the Umatilla house, with "accomodations for 200 guests," a bar room and reading room and "free lunch every morning at 10" was conducted by Handley and Sinnott. French & Gil man announce .that they dissolved part nership on Februaiy 21st, 1868 and their successors French & Co,, are conducting a wholesale and retail wine, liquor and grocery business, corner of Second and Washington. Bloch Miller & Co., have a dry goods store and assay office corner of Main and Washington and F. Wyck maii is making and selling boots and shoes on Main street, "opposite Chap in '8 Hall." S. L. Brooks gives notice to delinquent stock holder's of the Wssco Woolen Manufacturing Co., that on the ltlth day of March he will sell at public auction as much of their Ptook n necessary to pay the delinquent assess- roents thereon. Over forty tons of the machinery lor the woolen mill had ar rived in the city on the fourth of" the month, "165 days from New York, via Cape Horn." The announcement is made that a duplicate set of machinery is enroute, but as there is no wool in the country, the mill will not be able to go into, operation , until after the clip. spring Then, as 'now, '. politics occupied the attention of the average American citi zen.. A biennial election was approach ing and the county conventions - of two parties are announced. .,; N. R Packard is chairman of the democratic county convention and the delegates are called to meet in the city on March 5th, all of which shows that the editor of the Mountaineer then as his successor of the Times-Mountaineer now, sometimes ran a "dead head" advertisement after it was out of date. This remark, however, will not apply to the advertisement of the "Union Connty convention," which is called for March 12th. Robert Mays is the chairman and he warns the union men that the public interest demanded that 5'you look after the late method of Democratic Retrenchment : in Wasco county ,'.' which seems to be a sarcastic way of hinting that the democrats had either been doing a little' stealing or practising unwonted extravagance. (Concluded tomorrow.) ' . - ... . . Week of Prayer. ' . In connection with the world's week of prayer the churches of this city will hold a prayer ' meeting : every evening during the week' at the W." C. T.

' It was. but a morning since a new tangled fire escape was tried on one of Portland's highest buildings the man who looked like a small boy at such a distance lighted a cigar buckled the steel tape onto a belt around .his waist and stepped out into space from the seventh story. There was a sizz amd a snap the tape had broken down, down he came, and while, the spectators turned their heads aad the police hurried for the ambulance he struck the ground and taking off his bat he said.

A Preventive for Croup. ' We want every mother fo know that croup can be prevented. True croup never appears without a warning. The first symptom is hoarseness; then the child appears to have taken a cold or a cold may have accompanied the hoarse ness from the start. ; After that a pecul iar rough cough is developed, which is followed by tho croup.. The time to act is when the child first becomes hoarse ; a few doses of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy will prevent the attack.
