each bird will raise several broods.
Revival meetings are now in progress
at one of the Baker City chnrches, and
from the way the Democrat speaks of
some of the attendants it is evident a
work of grace is much heeded over that
way. Says the Democrat : " A few old
sinners whose characters are as black as
the inside lining of sheol are among the
number who pretend to take a great in
terest in these meetings, and it is to be
hoped that they are sincere, but judging
from their base conduct after they leave
the temple of worship, we are led to be
lieve that sin is so deeply imbeded in
their carcasses that it would require a
baptism of carborlic acid or a strong so
lution of concentrated lye to make an
impression on the sins' of these old
hypocrites.
Charley Eascome, one of the oldtime
residents of The Dalles, left the city last
night for New Jersey, where he goes to
spend the evening of his days, with a
brother. Many an oldtime friend will
drop a kindly tear or speak a kindly
word over his departure. Generous to a
fault, Charley saw many a less noble
competitor outstrip him in the race after
wealth and when paralysis laid its
cruel hand upon him about six months
ago, it left him poor in everything ex
cept in the riches which wealth can
not confer, a contented disposition.
Aitnougn almost neipieBS ne nobly re
fused to become a public charge and un
complainingly and cherfully did what
ever odd jobs of work he was capable of
or could find to do in his line as a painter,
Only a couple of days ago he painted a
fence for a neighbor who would willingly
nave contriDuiea ine wages earned as a
gift. On the way to his " new home
Charley will call and visit his aged father
in New York City.
The Dalles must take some lengthy
strides in the way of improvements in
the near future, of which our own citi
zens seem scarcely to realize the pros
pect. When the time arrives for modern
light draft vessels to penetrate the in
terior through the canal ' and locks at
the cascades, the lordly Colombia will
assert her prerogative as a transporta
tion route and there will be many a
floating cargo taken on at docks here for
distant portB of the world, more readily
than they are ' now received at ports
nearer to the sea. All this may be ac
complished, and The Dalles become a
busy mart from shipping alone, to which
may be added the fertile resources of the
surrounding country, from grain, wool,
mutton, beef and horses, for which the
Inland Empire is now famous. The
mines of precious ores and coal, which
abound within a radius of from one
hundred to three hundred miles of The
Dalles, will cause the erection of stamp
mills, smelters, reduction works, etc.,
and the hills will . resound with the
tumult of business, while' thousands of
Dusy people win laite ine place of our
present hundreds,' and our capital be
counted by millions. This is no fancy
picture of what The Dalles may become
within the next decade, because we have
here the hidden treasures and the un
developed resources that may be counted
upon to enrich the world, . by the bare
possibility of cheapened . power, and
many other contributing forces, brought
about by . scientific developments in
electricity and other modern appliances,
now so abundantly used' for supplying
the daily necessities of humanity none
of which" are exempt J froin successlul

j-.-'.tas Medal Contest. ...
A very good house greeted the Demor

dicates that these trials of declamatory
skill will become quite popular.
: Tho contestants did their work nobly
and each gave evidence of careful train

lerton, Harry Fredden, Archy Barnett,
May Barnett, Pearl Butler and Johnny
Barnett. The judges were Dr. Eshel

Pearl Butler. The music by - a choir,
consisting of Professor Smith, J. Frank
Ha worth, Mrs. Condon and Miss Crebeil
and a vocal sold by Mrs. B. S. Hunting
ton deserve special mention as contri
buting highly to make- a delightfully
pleasing entertainment. - Nor must the
two songs "A neat little clock" and
Roll your hands," by the primary class
of the public schools be forgotten. ; The
little people acquitted themselves splen
didly. The ladies' committee of the W.

to thank the many friends who aided
to make the contest a complete success,
