1 Mayor fayij came in from his ranch
on ghjEidge'this morning; He re
ports thatj It cosarnehced raining there at
about n O'clock last night -and "TaLhexf
steadily till he left and there is every
indication that the rain is general. Mr.
Mays has just turned out from his Tygh
valley ranch about 300 head of cattle he
hadiedYt!
fedYtheret daring the alleged i winter
cattle were turned out
just
in the Bake Oven country and Mr. Mya
says the green grass there is fine as he
has seen it for many a year.
Three "tourists" were forcibly accom
odated with- lodgings" in the- calaboose
last night. They were still reclining on
the gorgeous couches of this caravansory
when a reporter called at the office" this
afternoon and the recorder was puzzled
what to do. with' them: ' Somehow this
class of gentry don't fire worth a cent.
When the authorities furnish them with
an escort to the city boundary the part
ing scene,- or something else is too much
for them and the evening shadows gener
ally find them back in favorite haunts. J
tieretotore tne only tmng found enect
ual towards weaning their affections
from the city was' an earnest invitation
by Commissioner Staniels to help im
prove the public streets.
A Wamic Farm.
At the farm of Mr. Brazil Savage at
Wamic, says the Dufur Dispatch, may
be seen yellow Xewtown Pippin apples
grown in 1890, 'and kept in a common
cellar, and it speaks well for the fruit
grown on' - high" elevationi 'Mr. S.
raised some of the largest onions ever
grown in Oregon j one weighed three
and three-quarter ' pounds; a large
number over one and one half pounds,
he also 'raised cabbage weighing 'ever
forty pounds. All the wheat grown on
his farm . averaged - thirty-two ' bushels
per acre ; and fruit and vegetables grow
to compare with those of any part of the
country, on the high prairies of Wamic
and Juniper Flat, and it only needs a
railroad to make it a- rich .country! r A
good road up Tygh hill would make it
possible for the farmers of that section
to haul their produce to The Dalles
market.
Heart Party.
Mrs. C. L. Phillips gave a very pleas
ant "heart party" to fiifteen of her lady
friends, at her residence on the Bluff,
yesterday afternoon at 2 p. m. The
party broke up at about 5:30, each
member carying home a unique souvenir
in the form of a playing card on which
was "printed ah approprtate acrostic.
Mr8.'A." S. Bennet carried off . the first
prize, a handsome black lace scarf, and
the bcoby, a cute little trimmed doll's hat
was awarded to Mrs. I. J. Norman. The

i Electricity b$ tbe Gallon. ' '
Electricity can be purchased by1 the
gallon 'and carried -borne, like" oil." So
says Walter A. Crowdus, a southern in
ventor. Mr. Crowdus believes he has
discovered a means independent of the
steam engine and dynamo, for genera
ting electricity of sufficient power to
furnish light, run pumps and propel
street cars. He produces electricity by
chemical action. n The dimensions of his
small battery, one eighth horse power,
and six inches. The cover is of hard
rubber. Within are four compartments,
each containing a cup." To charge the
generator the inventor filled the cups
with a .mixture -of; sulphuric acid and
water. -The1 cover was then fastened
on with knobs. The inventor said that
was all that was necessary at . any time
to charge the battery, and ,any servant
could do it. The battery was then con
nected with a sewing machine by means
of two insulated wires, a . switch, was
turned, and the machine was running.
A sligot'Thovetaierit of the "switch made
it possible' to regulate the; speed 'as de
sired:' 'The battery -Was connected 'with
an incandescent light burner. It fur
nished a strong, -steady light. Connec
tion was next made with a pair of car
riage" lamps 'with good results. They
could be stored in vthe cellar, and con
nected with any number of burners re
quired. The inventor claims he has
proved bv experiment that Lis generator
is available for operating street cars.

l:.-l ,. market; TtEviEwi ; '
;The local market is, yeryquiet, , -; The
business of the. week past Jias not given
any appearance of improvement over the
former. The beautiful Weather' has caus
ed ari increased activity among the t arm
ers orr their::farms, in plowing and sow
ing of early grain and as a consequence
there are but few in the city, V , ', .
In jobbing lines there has been a let
ter inquiry for Btaples from the country
merchants and interior towns, and a con
siderable amount of freighting has been
done.Y j '- " ;: ' " - '
.. There haB been several large freight
teams in from Mitchell and Prineville,
in Crook county, and have loaded with
merchandise and gone from the Wasco
warehouse to the merchants in those
places. ...
MONEY MATTERS
Are comparatively "easy. We hear of a
limited Inquiry formoneyo'n loan, and
parties in need are seldom willing tb'pay
a bonus to the brokers for the purpose of
obtaining it,; In conversation with some
of our bankers, we are given to under
stand that there is no scarcity of money,
and deposits are constantly coming in,
a larger ratio than formerly.
-' : -" " SEAL ESTATE.
The real estate market is constantly im
proving..' There is considerable more in
quiry, and more transfers, than at any
former corresponding periods. ' Town or
city property is sought after, at advanced
rates, in a greater degree than ever be
fore &t this point. Our real estate bro
kers are very happy over the outlook as
foretold by the present. "
... MISCELLANEOUS.
Staple groceries are in good demand, and
prices are' maintained on all lines except
in sugars, which have advanced a Ct.
B. all round.' Coffee has dropped
slightly'.; .Syrups remain about the same
except the common grades,, which are
marked, down somewhat.' Dried fruits
are unusually low. Bleached dried peach
es lOKcts, bleached apples lOcts, Italian
prunes evaporated 10 cts,. pitted 11 cts,
apricots 12. Common grades 1 to 2cts
lower. Hc""t :"l ' 5 ' i
In garden products potatoes-are in
light demapd.'best grades jsre"quoted at
60 cts per lOG tts, arnd inferior at 40 to 50.
Cabbage is in limited supply. Onions
are off at cts $ lb, and dull sale at
that. '.; ;
..." ' i ' ' . '.
'V -;';: '.THE WHEAT MARKET
Is very quiet, and prices are' not encour
aging.. Reports from the east and for
eign markets indicate a sluggish state of
affairs on change. The report sent out
by the centers that only two-fifths of all
the wheat product of the United States
had passed out of first hands, has to a
greater or less degree, practically paraly
zed the markets, and expectations for
cheaper breadstuff's is to.be realized in
the near future. Flour in Portland has
declined 25 cts. on the barrel, and a still
further decline is looked for. Willam
ette wheat is quoted at 92 to 95 cents
bushel, Walla Walla No. I. 90 cents.
The. report that only two-fifths of the
United States wheat product has passed
out of first hands, above alluded to, is
erroneous. l?ully two-fifths of the last
years' product is in first hands today in
the Pacific coast states.
