Mr. Burdan, of Hood Kiver, nearly
broke all the betting fraternity of The
Dalles today on the definition of the
words choir and quire. Both have the
same meaning, according to Webster,
when applied to a chorus of singers.
But in all well regulated printing offices
there is a uniformity in the., distinction
which makes it very rare to see the word
quire referring to to a choir, or party of
singers.

Mr. Black man, one of the enterpris

When questioned by a representative of
the Chronicle about the report of his
candidacy, on the democratic ticket, for
representative to congress, Mr. Blackman
saw: "iou may sav that 1 have no
aspirations for political honors; that! I
am not tbe mayor of Heppner, nor do I
expect that my name will tie brought
before any convention for any nomina
tion whatever."
The Times-Mountaineer said yesterday
The fire-plug, at the corner of Second
and Court streets was tested this morn
ing, and with two host attached threw
streams a long distance" You bet it
did, and just how near the Mountaineer
press came of never recording this con
fession of the excellence of our water
system may be gathered from a fact that
has just come to the Chronicle's knowl
edge. The -new reservoir is only about
two-thirds full of water and not nearly
the whole pressure was turned on the
pipes when the test was made. Had the
whole pressure been turned on and the
hose turned toward the Mountaineer office
there would now be nothing left of it but

KABBlIIt.
On bunuay evening the 6th inst., at
the O'Dell school house, East Hood
River, by Bev. Troy Shelly, Miss Lela
Kemp to Chas. Peter O'Dell. The" cer
emony was witnessed by a large gather
ing of friends and neighbors who heartily
congratulated" the happy young couple
and wished them many happy days. -f
At their Old Tricks.
The exceeding smallness of the Union"
Pacific may be gathered from the fact
that they have adopted the plan of
charging through freight to The Dalles
for all goods carried by them from San
Francisco to Portland and consigned to
the D; P. & A. N. Co. ' A few days ago,
for example, a San Francieco house con
sighed to this office, via. the Union
Pacific boats to Portland, thence by the
new boats, a small box of printing ma
terial. The charges to Portland were
$2.55 while the rate is but $1.05. The ex
cess was the freight to The Dalles. In-
quiry at the Portland office elicited t the
reply that the Union Pacific was in ,the
carrying business and would., take .the
freight on to The Dalles without any ad
ditional charges, if the consignee so de
desired. The same treatment has been
accorded to several Other shippers. The
U. P. is determined to cut its own throat.
Its action is a 6am pie of highhanded and
arbitrary defiance of law and the
people's rights.. It is just such, treat
ment that has increased the demand for
an open river to the force of a cyclone.
Meanwhile shippers will do well to con
sign all freights that come by - way of
San Francisco to some responsible Port
land forwarding Company that will pay
the freight to Portland and see that they
are forwarded to The Dalles by the
people's boats. .

Mexia, Texas. '-In the-latter case I
used Chamberlain's Cough Kemedy, and
I think with considerable success, only
being in oea a uttie over two days,
against ten days for the first attack.
The second attack I am satisfied would
have been equaly as bad as the first
but for the use of this remedy, as I bad
to go to bed in about six hours after be
ing 'struck with it, while in the first
case I was able to, attend to business
about two days before getting 'down.' "

Hawk and Snake at It.
Mrs. W. P. L&aitter had an unusual
experience a few days ago. Aa the story
goes, she saw a large hawk descend to
the ground. As the hawk did not rise
after a short time she decided to investi
gate. On approaching the place the
hawk arose and perched upon a tree
near by. In a few minutes it descended
again. Mrs. Lasitter proceeded to the
place and found that the hawk had
tackled a large blacksnake. Its talons
were fast in tbe snake and the snake so
entwined about the wings and body of
the hawk that the latter could neither
disengage itself from the snake nor rise
with it. Mrs. Lasitter took advantage
or tbe situation, and arming herself
with a club killed both hawk and snake.
