R. Dunbar has sent to Vancouver and Walla Walla land offices since Nov. 1st, 1892 for entry of land $10,000: estimated for January and first two days of February, from proofs ad vertised to be made before him $33,400. The Chronicle sanctum was most happily1 surprised this afternoon by a brief call from Capt. John W. Lewis, register of the United States land office in this city, who has beeu closely con fined at his house for seven weeks past by a serious illness. He is now improv ing rapidly. . The New Year party to be given by the German Gesang Verin Harmonie, will take place at Armory hallNew Years Eve. Dec. 31st, 1892. A good time may be expected, and all invited may be as sured of a pleasant evening. Tickets may be had at Kellers bakery at $1.00 each.' Boys whose lack of better natures, and generous instinct, precludes the pos sibility of charity for the beautiful feath ered songsters in the city, and leads them to acts of cruelty by wanton kill ing of the birds; should be roughly handled, and taught lessons of mercy in MAYS our Inland Empire fur bearing animals, to be seen at B. Wolf's place today. He has nearly every kind on hand, from the bear to the skunk, including silver gray fox, etc., in all about $2,000 worth, for shipment. Mr. L. Rice of Endersby, in the city today, says the roads are much the best in the city now, l here is plenty ot snow for sleiehing, but it is soft, and the ground is soaked with water under'' the snow. At Ward's mill he says there was a fall of three feet. On the creek, in the vicinity of Davidson's, it was twenty-two inches deep. Discussing the jute sack business, and works at the Salem penitentiary where the convicts may be given useful em ployment without 'detriment to the free laboring classes ; it is suggested that the Inland Empire, being the home of the flax plant, where it is indigenous to the soil, if an an effort was made might fur nish the factory with an t-xcellent qual ity of stock for sacks. The Chronicle would be pleased to have some sugges tions on this topic. . A Washington dispatch yesterday says: "Paul F. Mohr, of Tacoma, is arain in Washington. Mohr is the man who has opposed, with a great deal of vigor, the project for a boat railway at The Dalles on the Columbia river. He does not anticipate that he will have to make any effort . during the present i session otcougress to prevent a bill going j through which will interfere with his ' : i i i l .

Bills was passing up Second street, he discovered that the lights had been extinguished in The Dalles Mer cantile company's store. He soon found that a glass in one of the 'front doors had been broken in. He secured assist ance to watch developments, and went for Officer Gibons. The store was then entered, when it was found that an In dian boy, a boit 16 years .old, was in the store. He had unlocked the store-room door, and appeared to be waiting for a pal. The supposition is that the safe might have' been broken open, but for the timely appearance of Mr. Bills. The boy had been in town during the dav, with other Indians of the Warm Springs agency. He had gone to camp with the older members of the tribe, and return ed to town after nightfall. - He was dis covered by his white sombrero, as he skulked behind some sacks in the store room. He had taken nothing but a plentiful supply of candy. The officers took him to jail, and he will be given an opportunity to explain- the purpose -of his nocturnal explorations. : There was quite a rush at the stage office last night of packages to be sent Out this morning As the roads are very bad the stage company is perplexed how to accommodate everybody and not overload the coaches. In order to pre vent this it was decided to take only such .'articles as were indispensably necessary. 'Then the appeal was made in each case. One man brought id a package for W. Bolton & Co. t Antelope 1 don t know whether this can go or not," savs the affable agent, and the circumstances are related. "Well," says the. would be shipper, "it is very important that that package should go, because it is boots, and the- people they are intended for are bare-footed, in the snow."

These incidents and others ! ,l J will serve to show drivers how difficult it is to accommodate and a not stall the stages, in' times like the present. 1 - " We have heard of absent-minded people, but do not remember having met one, face to face, until quite recently. A gentleman at the U. P. R. ticket office in The Umatilla house, applied for a ticket to Portland. He appeared to be thinking about something else when the ticket was handed in him by Mr. Batty, and . he proceeded to fold the ticket double until it was in the shape of a strip about of an inch wide. He next seated biui.-elf in a chair unobserved, and tore off bit after bit of the paper, until the ticket was consumed, and lay . scattered about his feet on the floor. When his presence of mind returned to him he arose, and ap proaching Batty inquired fur the ticket. "I gave it to you," was Batty's reply. "I don't think you did," was the res-, ponse. Batty was certain he did, and a bystander corroborated the fact. This lead to an investigation ; the fragmei. ts were found; but as it seemed impossible to restore the parts to a shape which would make the ticket presentable, the traveler concluded to pocket' the loss, and, purchase another ticket. This cir cumstance makes it possible for us to believe the story from . McMinnville, in which it is stated that W. E. Martin went out to his stable a few evenings since with a lantern and a milk pail, to milk his cow ; and while in a fit of ab straction placed - the pail on the lam p cord and milked the lantern full of the lacteal fluid. It is siud that Martin's wife discovered the mistake, when he returned to the kitchen with an empty pail, and the lantern in a fix for the dish pan . No Blockade Here.. ' . Some of our contemporaries are in nocently spreading reports like this: The Union Pacific railroad ha-i had a hard time fighting- .the storn'i king the past week. . The snow, was very heavy in the mountains up the Columbia and at one time six trains were stalled at The Dalles, waiting for the rotary snow plow to open the road to Portland for them." There has been no blockade at any point in the county' of Wasco. Neither at The Dalles, Hood River, nor Cascade Locks. All the difficulties of obstruction' have occurred in Multnomah county, within from 18 to 40 miles of Portland. Please make a note of this fact. The Dalles is all sunshine roses and chrysanthemums.

Cleveland." Gov. Pennoyer is again brought prom inently before the Nation because of an alleged controversy with President-elect Cleveland." Gov. Pennoyer said last evening that: "The assertion that I, at any time, attempted to dictate to Mr. Cleveland in regard to silver or an v other matter, is entirely without foundation. I have had no correspondence, in any manner, for more than four years, with Mr. Cleveland, and I would never think jf attempting to convert him to any democratic policy or doctrine, as I con sider him a mugwump and a plutocrat past all redemption." He does not deny having stated that : "The imper tinent interference of the president-elect with the selection of 'a 'United States senator from New York is both unprece dented and alarming. If the New York democracy bows to' snch, dictation, it will Indicate that Mr. Cleveland has not only become the boss of his party, but the czar of the Nation."
