There was a 'childrens party at the rectory last evening, composed of St. Pauls church Sunday school. . We learn 1 ncidentally that the party was a perfect success. Sixteen bids were received" for the work of constructing the railway of the C. R. and N. Co., from Columbus to Crates point.

There is one thing to the advantage of the people about having text . books furnished by .the state. If they are paid for out of the public treasury the chances are that ' the legislative assem bly might be a little more careful about providing a law to have them changed, so often as they do now, at the expense of the parents.

Referring to the jute bag factory in the Walla Walla penitentiary, the Union Journal says the directors will soon pub lish their annual report, and then exact figures will be given to show, the state's profit by the running of the jute mill. It was said last summer that with the new invoice of jute then just ordered, the state would reduce the cost of jute bags nearly two cents each by the differ ence in cost of material. Those made this year could not cost more than five cents each and those of next year will consequently be made for three cents or a fraction over. ; This may be regarded ae good news for the farmer as well as for .the tax payer of the state' generally. r MAYS Coming. A transom at the academy was broken yfsterdav by snow balls. Badlv uashed. Misses Maie Williams and Laura Burgess came up from Portland today to spend the remaining holidays. Chas.

A lady in Bonnie Scotland, writing to a lady friend in The D.tlles, betravs a national pride when she says : "An athlete and a few of Scotland police are preparing to visit Chicago for the exhibition. You Yankees who expect to lick, all creation, are invited to see' them." It is said that a Portland man, who was knocked 'senseless by a falling icicle at tbe Hotel Portland, as he was pass ing along the sidewalk about his busi ness, when he recovered his senses found there were seven lawyers (po called) waiting to see him, with an offer to make arrangements for beginning a suit for damages. If this be true it shows a woeful waste of money expend ed in lawfully educating sons for the bar. Referring to an excerpt on the first page as to uregon in Chicago, we wish to ask : What is there to prevent any one or all of Oregon's interested citizens to make a similar exhibit to that of the horticultural society? When the true inwardness of the Chicago affair ia made public, there be many in Webfoot "who will decide that the state exhibit of wis dom in keeping out has been to her last ing benefit. - . N. R. Baird of Antelope met Mr. Ben Snipes and Sullivan at Seattle a week or so ago.' On recognizing Mr. Baird. they having met each other over on the John Day recently, the hobo detective hung his head and looked as sneaking as a hyena, and had nothing to say. The Herald savs Mr. Snipes told Mr. Baird he was satisfied the Zachary boys and Cal Hale were innocent men, and he also expressed himself emphatically in condemnation of the fool Sullivan and his hobo gang. - - James Reubens, the Nez Perce orator, is still in business at the o'd Lewiston stand. Reubens is well known to all residents of 1860-61, etc., following the Oro Fino excitement. He' visited The Dalles with Chiet Lawyer in 1863. He was interpreter for the celebrated Chief Joseph, and made a . speech -before the United States-senate in behalf of the latter's return . when he was a prisoner of war in the Indian territory. Reubens is a very influential speaker, and, is thor oughly educated.

OREGON , Busy Bees are usual bud and nipped. out today, but the blossom have been The home of Lagree and Uncle Tom's cabin will be found in Chicago at the fair next year. This week the new Un cle Tom's Cabin has the boards at Cord Fay's in Portland. During the week the "Standing Room Only" sign, which brings joy to the heart of the box-office, j ' i . was aiBpiayea on tne outer waua- eacn night long before the curtain rose, and hundreds were turned away with the in vitation to come some other night. Nothing succeeds like success, and no such success has ever been known at Cordray's theater. It is a great nov elty. The superstition about the number 13 being unlucky is put to multiplied test in the new 25-cent pieces. On one side of the coin there is no less than . ten repetitions of the number 13. There are 13 stars, 13 letters in the scroll held in the eagle's beak, 13 marginal feathers in. each wing, 13 tail feathers, 13 paral lel lines in the shield, 13 horizontal bars, 13 arrow heads in - one claw, 13 leaves on the branch ;in the other claw, and 13 letters in the words quarter dol lar. Thjre hasn't seemed to be any thing unluckv in the 13 original states, nor in the 13 stripes on tbe flag, and now it remains to be seen if the man who gets his pockets full of these new "flniftr """- wm pe nnmegv. v the meeting of the small and .harly dancing club last evening was a very en joyable affair. Dancing was indulged in during the evening. The club re flects much' credit on the manager, Miss J Winnie Mason. Among those who! were present are tne following: Misses Grace Campbell, Maybel Mack, Laura; i Thompson, Eda Schmidt, Dora Fred den, Ruth Cooper, Daisv Beall, Maief Beall, Pauline Buchler, Bertha Bach ler, Eva Heppner, Alma Schmidt, Mrs Heppner, Mrs. Gomly, Messrs. F. Wei-I gle, John Weigle, John Byrne, F. Gar retson, Robert Mays jr., Max Voght jr.,' G. C. Snowden, Victor Schmidt, Victor Marden, John Booth and Wm. Fred' den. . Sometime about Thanksgiving past, Mrs. 8. L. Brooks sent a choice collec tion of beautiful roses and chrysanthe mums from her flower garden in this city to a relative living near St. Paul, Minn. The flowers arrived in good con dition, but as the lady was then in St. Paul, visiting a married daughter, . her husband forwarded them. They reached St. Paul just in time for a pink luncheon her daughter was giving to about thirty five of her lady friends. One of her guests received a box of roses and chrys anthemums from California the same day, and brought them over'" for the ladies to admire ; thus it happened that Oregon and California "came with their flowers to ' help brighten the house." Minnesota's offerings were pink chrsy anthemums grown in the green house, at 75 cents per dozen. With the ther mometer down to zero that day, writes the lady, "I must tell you that your flowers were "very much admired and talked about by the ladies. For the dis tance they had traveled, and as they were grown out of doors, in the open air, it made them objects of more in terest .than- our home grown flowers. Please accept my thanks ' for. , the love that prompted you in sending them, for I assure you we all appreciate them:'' DIED. ..; In this cky; Dec. 28th. of dyphtheria, Heherj'-Bonv.-of Fred -una ""Susan Johns, aged eight-years. , v -- AT OUR OFFER - I This Webster's Dic jtioiiary.oiily $1.00!

With Observer Stationed at Portland. ' From the Salem Statesman. State Printer Baker now has a force 'of twenty-six men employed in the state printing office and they are running full time. . The biennial report of the Oregon state weather bureau, co-operating, with the United States department' of agri culture's weather bureau, is now in hand. H. E. Haynes is director of the bureau and B. S. Paguo local forecast of ficial. In this report they recommend the printing of 50,000 copies of the re port, and ask an appropriation of $2,000 for the purchase of instruments, etc. Since the last biennial report was ren dered, the work of establishing stations of observrtion has steadily progressed, until now there are eighty points in tbe state having standard government in struments, from which vital climatic data can be and is ascertained. Especial attention has been paid to the extension of the service, especially in the more sparsely and comparatively unknown counties removed from.1 -the center ot population. It has been es pecially endeavored to fit out the various colleges of the state very completely in order that the students may hve the benefits of the practical work of meteor ological observation. The state univer- wty .government experiment station, i Pacific university, and Mt. Angel college are thoroughly equipped with meteoro logical instruments. The state Normal school at Monmouth is also soon to be equipped. The first meteorological records made in Oregon were those made by the U. S. Hospital ,corps in July, 1850 ; the first were commenced at Fort Dalles, and during.the next month they were commenced at Astoria. The long est continuous record of precipitation in the state made by private individuals is that made by Thos. Pierce, at his farm on Eola hills, they forming an uninter rupted record . of twenty-two consecu tive years. The ' longest record, cover ing a .period of eighteen years, made by k private .-individual, '.of temperature, precipitation, etc., is tbe record made by Saml. Li Brooks; ot The Dalles. The record made by John B'riggs, at Albany, and the one mad by George Bennett, at Bandon, each covering a period of over fifteen years, form the next 'largest recoraln the state;"1-'-'' Ma - BOOKS, W in clot! lilt Oyer. 208 to select from, at 25c per voL ft o O O O hqSiday presents ' When the workmen were laying the bituminous 'pavement on Washington street in Portland, about one year ago, Mr. Frank Dekum earnestly protested at the manner the work was performed between the rails and 1 over the ties of the car line. His protest was carried in to the columns of the press, and at least one editor we know of was soundly be rated . by Engineer . Habersham for ''making such a mistake." . Dekum'a protest fell flat, and he hud a right to protest, as he felt he was throwing his- -twenty-dollar gold pieces to the heathen, ' a i' e r i ( - , idswwi oi paying lur an improvement abutting upon his property. Now that the thing ends exactly as Mr. .Dekum predicted, the corporation has nobody but its contractors to. fall back upon, and if the council doe-1 tbe sqnare thing ther will see to it that the damages are made good at the expense of the contractors, . and the car company.
