' Good roads are indispensable to the prosperity and growth of this country. If yon want to enjoy a good laugh go .. to the Mic-Mac concert tomorrow eve ning. The Congregational choir on sparing no.efforts to make the Lena Morgan concert a big success. The company's tool house, at the cor ner'of Main and Union streets, has been pulled down and removed. K. C. Pentland, secretary of the Ore gon Press Association, is in the city vis iting his sister, Mrs. S. I.. Brooks. T. F. Osborn was re-elected president v of the Portland chamber of commerce on the 21at. Chas H.

Taxes come high over there but they must: have 'em. -, .Do not let anything prevent you from going to the Mic-Mac concert on Satur day to hear the dainty little darkey maidens whose pretty dresses will make1 their sweet singing very effective. From Robert Snodgrass.'of Boyd, who visited the city today, we learn that the farmers are busy plowing in some places out In his neighborhood. Admission to the- Mic-Mac concert is only fifty cents for any seat in th"e house ' . and the concert is for the benefit of the Episcopal, Congregational and Methodist churches of The Dalles. y All the music at the Mic-Mac concert tomorrow evening will be very lively and pretty, no classical music will be attempted, but it is said that even lovers of classical music . cannot fail to be pleased with Mrs. Sarah E. Walker's rich and beautiful voice. A number of would-be safe experts have been trying diligently during the past two days', to earn the- $5 that Sam Klein offered for the opening of Judge Bird's safe. W. H. Loch head luckily struck the combination this forenoon . and captured the money. B. W. Crooks of Glenn Wood, Wash ington, returned to The Dalles last sight from Dufur where he has been for the past eight weeks under treat ment of Dr. Vanderpool for cancer in - the lip, face and nose. When he went to Dufur the cancer on his lip was about - the size of a hazel nut and that on his nose and face extended across one cheek nearly to his ear. Almost every sign and trace of the disease is gone as far as can be seen, without any disfigurement of the parts affected. The doctor has five patients under treatment at present some of them very bad cases, one a can. cer of twenty years standing: vet all are doing hopefully. Of Interest of Horticulturists. The Marion County Fruit Growers' Association held its annual meeting at Salem on the 18th - instant, when topics of interest to horticulturists and gardners were discussed. Among the papers read was one by B. S. Pague, on-"Horticulture h and Climatic jr Considerations," which" contained the following remarks of general interest to fruit growers and of special interest to the fruit growers of Wasco county. Ten acres of fuit trees at the age of five years, he said will yield more in one year than would twenty acres of wheat in five years ; each aere each year, yielding twenty-five bushels to the acre, and each bushel selling for 80 cents.. He said that the weather bureau record showed that in the vicinity of Hood River and The Dalles, the low est night temperature was higher in that locality than in any other part of the state from June 1st to September 15tb, making the section especially suited to peach culture. He explained how cold air settled in valleys and said vegetation on rising ground is never expossd to the full intensity of irosts or cooler night air and the higher -they are situated relative to the immediately surrounding district, the less they are exposed, since their relative elevation provides a ready escape downward of the cooler air almost as rapidly as it isr formed: Frosts are most severely felt where the slopes above them are destitute of vegetation, for if the slopes are covered ' with trees, they offer resistance to the descending cur rents of cold air and distribute the cold produced by radiation through the atmosphere." ,'He then distinguighed the frost and nonfrost periods as they generally exist in Oregon and affect vegetation, andggave an example of how with the dry and wet bulb thermometer any horticultnris't could determine for himself the probable approach of frost and gave, remedies of how to 'protect orchards from frost by burning damp straw and allowing the smoke to cover the orchard The Fireman's Kail. . The firemens' ball' given last night in the Umatilla house was a grand success, both as to the numbers in attendance and in financial results. Colonel Sin not t estimates that a thousand persous were in attendance." Others more con servatively inclined place the number at three to four hundred. All agree that there was an immense crowd, everything passed off - pleaeantly and a most enjoy able time was had. " The first prize for the best sustained gentleman's character was a pair of solid gold sleeve buttons and shirt stnds and was awarded . to Andrew Keller . in the' character of a shoemaker. The second, a gold quartz scarf pin, was awarded to Mr. Ulrich, who assumed the character of a soldier. The first ladies' prize, a handsome and valuable dressing case was awarded to' Miss Jacobsen in the character of "Sun flower." The second prize was a large cabinet album and was awarded to Miss Pauline Buchler, who assumed the char acter of Maid of Athens. An Important Meeting. An adjourned meeting of the county court will be held next Monday. The principal business to come before it will be the county levy. In view of the fact that Multnomah county has ignored the work of the state board of equalization, and that its recognition by Wasco county would involve a considerable addition ta our state tax, Judge Thornbury de sires that the citizens of The Dalles meet in the county court room next Monday evening at the usual hour to counsel with one another as to the course the county court ought to pursue in the premises whether'or not to ignore the findings of the Etate board as Multnomah-county has done and make the levy from the assessment roll as returned by the county assessor.

' , From a lengthy editorial iri the '.New York World reviewing . the work of Hill as governor of the etate we take the fol lowing extracts: "He has saved the stte not less than $4,000,000 of wasteful expenditures by his vetoes alone, and a much larger sum by securing the aboli tion of costly and unnecessary bureaus, and by the deterrent influence of his known hostility- to extravagance upon the acts of the legislature. He has made possible the lowest tax-rate in thirty-six years, with no direct tax at all for state purposes. . - . OF UENEBAL INTEREST.

How to Manage Haabantis.'- - " "How- to Manage Husbands" is debated bv Sorosis, and sundry futile suggestions are offered, such as "Hold your" own .-tongue,'' "Tell him .your secrets," and such like.
