Some faint hopes are cherished that the astronomers' determined search over the surface of a neighboring planet may possibly reveal the whereabouts of Maj. Handbury. Every girl is taught that she enhances the value of a privilege by withholding it, but she usually learns for herself that it does not pay, as a rule, to persist in. withholding it too long. An adventurer, "with a champagne -appetite in a beer town" an he expressed himself to The Chboniclk man today, is doing The Dalles on a fake advertising schemed Lookout for him. The S. B. Medicine Co., which is a humane society, were not allowed to drive one of their teams through the streets of Spokane, because the city dads construed it to be an advertising dodge. Precipitate matrimony is the latest of the horrible instruments of devastation which threaten the soldier. A recent attack at Fort Sheridan notably weaken ed the national fighting force by sweep ing away a private.

Snipes & Kinerely have laid a trap to catch all the flies in town. After the sale of their job lot of 12,500 double sheets of tanglefoot, it will be safe to bet that there are no flies on The Dalles. W. It. Johnson, the Tuna Hedge man, ha' gone to La Grande for a few days.

This goes to prove that when fishing is restricted salmon multiply, and it may be necess ary to change the close season from fall to summer. - '-r An old gentleman was in The Dalles last night taking a leisurely walk about town, arid meeting a representative of Thb Chhonicle, he volunteered to eay that the town had changed materially since his first visit here in 1852. He found no one here now whom he knew thirty years ago. The - M. E. church camp meetings will open at The Dalles on the 18th, Thursday next, in the pines. The pub lic generally are cordially iuvited to at tend. Caariages will run regularly be tween the city proper and the camp grounds and an array, of talented ministers will bo present at the services daily. Mr. Baldwin informs us that the ar tesian well boring at Tekoa is a success. The water pours forth in a volume of 40,000 gallons per day. As it will re quire 150,000 gallons per day to supply the town and keep the reservoir full, the hole will be sunk deeper in hopes of se curing a stronger flow. He has moved his v family to Tekoa, and has perma nently located there worn out with waiting for The Dalles to get a move on, incident to an open Columbia river. . Buffalo, N. Y., and The Dalles', Of., are becoming somewhat allied by . busi ness association. '. The Express notes the incorporation there of the Vanden burgh laboratory of chemical industry. The object of the concern is stated to be to conduct a' general .business ash ana lytical, consulting , and 'manufacturing chemists in all departments of the in dustry and to sell chemicals and scien tific apparatus. The amount of capital stock is $25,000, divided into shares of $50 each. The duration is to be fifty years, several citizens of The Dalles are identified with this incorporation. : Up on 8-Mile lives a genialld farmer who has such an abundant supply of this world's goods that hia orchards, his fields and his barns are overstocked. His berry patch is laden: with luscious fruits, going to waste for want of a mar ket. . A party of pleasure-seekers from The Dalles stopped with him a few days ago, and when they started on the return, offered to recompense him for the accommodation. He politely re fused the proffer, and pressingly invited them to come again, to come often and bring their friends with them.. Can such another incident of 'fraternity be found outside of . Wasco county, where people generally are proverbially noted for their genuine, unstinted hospitality? The Dalles All a Park. How to appreciate the beauty and health-giving qualities of The Dalles surroundings, is sometimes difficult to the man whose occupation .pins him down to a daily routine. But an occa sional paragraph like this, from a Chi cago paper, brings with it a realizing sense of the noble situation of a home which, like The Dalles, is all a park. The Chicago News says : "It is at euch times as these, when : the mercury ' in the thermometer rises to the. top of -the glass, that people realize the " full value of the magnificent parks' of the city. At all times the parks are 'beautiful. They . are in cheerful, contrast to the granite-paved, iron-spanned streets of the business quarter. They are incom parably ' more -beautiful' than the most beautiful residence streets. But while they are thus attractive at -all times. they do not assume a true utilitarian as pect save when a breathing place is not only desirable, but absolutely neces sary. There can be little doubt that during the last few days the parks have done., very much to keep down the death rate. They have done much for the health of the citizens th at the doc tors could not do, learned and efficient as they are. . '. . A Portland Youth. Portland is the home of the boys and girls aid society, but , judging, from the Telegram last . evening, Portland is so busy looking after the children of her neighbors that she does not observe the neglected, ones at home. The Telegram thus describes a Portland youth smoking a cigarette "in violation, of law :" "To day a small boy, not to exceed 8 years of age was Observed smoking a cigarette with a great deal of relish. . He was a regular street Arab shoeless, coatless, dirty' and ragged. An old broken, bleached, dilapidated straw hat but meagerly shaded his sun-burned and freckled face, while thera was a gener ally tough and slouching air about this juvenile exile from homo and moral in fluences. It was somewhat amusing to see this little gamin take a package of cigarettes out' of his pocket, carefully pick one out and replace the bunch ; then' to witness the cool nonchalence with which he took a match and. struck it on the leg of bis ' trousers, and rro ceeded to ignite the cigarette and puff away as uig as me. . , - Race War in Oregon. ; Oregonian. ... Chief Peo'of the' Uma tilla tribe, sat down in a colored boot black's chair at Pendleton and demand ed a shine. The negro, who evidently thought his dignitywould .be compro mised by blacking an Indian's shoes, indignantly refused. Chief Peo talks fair English, but he had to fall back upon his native tongue in order to ex press himself. That portion of his re marks fit for publication might be trans lated about like this:. "I've had mv shoes blacked by a white man in New York, I stopped at the best hotel in Chicago, and you're too black ' for me." This did not fully express his indigna tion. andhe returned, after pacing off several steps, to remark": " fcYon'reonly a black son of a gun anyway !"

Yesterday's Oregonian contains this "innocent-appearing" dispatch from Washington: ; ; '"; ; -. ' BIGHT IIOUBS A DAY. ' ' : . The navy . ' department ;' has about de cided to advertise for bids' for the con struction of the Puget sound dry -dock, A - telegram from Branh&aii, the low bidder, from Seattle, states! that he'! can give all the bonds required-if c, bo is awarded the contract, but the new eight hour law which is , in force, has deter mined the officers having the matter in charge to read vertise. This new law prohibits the officers of the government from awarding contracts to any person who . purchases material of any kind from any person who does not have in force, in his business, the eight-hour system. All government contractors will have to be bound by that law now, and it might make a material difference in the course of constructing the dock. The same law must be observed on all government work, including the locks at the cascades and the Portland public building, when work begins on that. - HOW IT WORKS. An act of congress, ' approved : August 1st, provides that no officer or agent of the government in charge of any govern ment work shall require or permit any man employed upon euch work to labor more than eight hours per day, under penalty of not more than $1,000 fine nor more than six months' imprisonment. The act does not apply to contracts let before its passage. In the case of the government steamer Cascades, em ployed in towing rock from here to the jetty, arid in many other cases, this law, which appears to have been framed es pecially for passage in the year of a presidential election, is going to inter fere with the progress of work, and cause it to cost a great deal more than originally estimated. The law does not say that 10 hours' wages shall be paid for eight hours work. . ; T Modern Miracles. A singer for breath was distresced, And the doctors all said she must rest. Bui sne took w. ai. v.
