A ; Mr. John" Batty, living near Des Chutes, while putting up ice for Mr. Taft at Celilo a week ago last Tuesday, had the second and third fingers of the right hand frozen. He came to this city last evening, and this morning had the members amputated near the third joint by Dr. Logan. Herrin, the photographer, took a flash light picture of the whiet club at 11 o'clock last night, which in many re spects, was more faithful than those or dinarily taken in daylight. It is true to life, and the grouping, the room's adorn ment, down to the minutest object within range of the camera are fault-1 lessly pictured. , ; The petit jurors seem to be having a lazy time of it this week. But one case yet has required a jury and even that was dismissed before the jury had an opportunity .to display their wisdom in unraveling the knotty questions of fact. It is not probable that there will be very much business for the trial jury this term. Today begins the Chinese new year, and the Celestials .will celebrate it for about three or four days, by feasting and exploding fire-crackers. At this period they are extremely hospitable, and among themselves they are very sociable. For the time all rank is dropped and the coolie is as good as his more for tunate neighbor in silk. - The many friends of Dr. Siddall will be pleased to learn that he will not re - move to Portland, as was once reported, but will still continue to practice dentis try in The Dalles, where he has resided and practiced for the past fifteen years.

Mr. Sherar shipped from The Dalles 275 tons of wool via The Columbia Biver to Asto ria by the Regulator line, where it -was placed on the .ship Tillie E. Starbuck, which sailed from Astoria Oct. 19th, 1892, going via Cape Horn, to New York, where it arrived safely Jan. 31st. 1893, in care of Denny, Rice & Co. It is to be transferred to New York and takes three ships of .tta'e Metropolitan line to take it to Boston. This is the first year Mr. Sherar ever seut his wool to Boston by the water route. The distance is 1-1,800 miles; time, three months ; rate paid per ton, 25. jt j8 He has formerly sent his wool to Boston jVorkPy the U. P. R. R.

At the circuit court this afternoon, after excusing the waiting jurors until nine o'clock tomorrow, the court pro ceeded to the consideration of the suit of Queen Patten for a divorce from her husband Eldon Patten. The reason al leged was cruel and inhuman treatment. The testimony reported by referee Wer rick disclosed many cruel acts on the part of the ' defendant, running over a period of about two years. He had threatened to cut his wife's throat and to burn the house over her head when she would be asleep, and had attempted on one occasion to kill Br, using the usual weapon of the negroes, a razor. Patten was aleo shown to be a drunken; worthless sort of man who -would not work so long as he could force his wife to provide food for him, and had spent a large portion of hia time in Portland, spending his evenings with the dusky demi-monde, who frequent the White chapel district. After hearing the testi mony, J udge Bradshaw made an order granting a decree of absolute divorce, and the care of her children. Patten is the same man who was arrested a few weeks since for assaulting his wife with a razor and for which he spent a term in the county jail. .He disappeared when released, and has not since been heard from. : Free to everybody. For the next 15 days, . Herrin will give away one en larged picture with every dozen cabinet photos. Call and Bee sample. Gallery over the postoffice. . .

MAYS ICE BREAKING. 7 An Opening Has Been Made at Celilo. DRIFTING MAJESTICALLY DOWN Kennedy's Boat Injured The D. P. & A. N. ' Co.'s Loss Blocked Also ' at the Cascades. The ice commenced breaking below the dalles of the riyer today and drifted down, forming - a Veritable- river glacier in miniature. The main bodv of the ice at this point has drifted down about one hundred yards and the old trail across the river looks funny in conse quence, being disconnected from the one on terra firma. The Inland ' Star, which was put on the river last summer by Mr. Kennedy, is damaged considerably. The accumu lating ice has torn off her rudder and carried it down stream, and it is thought it is cracked from stem to stern, but the latter fact cannot be definitely ascer tained until the ice, which has forced it over on its side and blocked the space up, has gone. . The damage sustained by the D. P & A. Nav. Co. is not great, the only effect of the mass of ice being to incline some of the springing piles, which can be reme died -when the river is open. It is not thought the ice will interfere with the Regulator, but if the danger arises, the boat can be pulled up. further on the bank out of danger. . . - The river is also blocked below the cascades. CARD PARTY. A Very Enjoyable Evening By the Devotees of Whist. A number of the members of Union Whist Club being absent last evening, on account of the commencement of the Lenten season,' the host and hostess, Senator and Mrs. Hilton, took ad van tage of the . opportunity to show their jj young friends just how much the mem- bers of the "married whist club," as iti is termed, enjoy their weekly meetings,' andjfrota the, number of -resolutions' made by the young people -present to abandon their present state of 'single blessedness" and be "jiners," it is evi dent they were greatly pleased with the evening's pleasure. The time passed very quickly in playing twnty-five games, and Mra. . Briggs seemed more than pleased when presented with the daintest gold bonbonniere spoon as first prize; but Mrs. Glenn was perfectly willing to be a booby., if all boobies carry away the most beautiful souvenir spoon to be had. Mr. Herrin, the pho tographer, arrived on the scene some minutes -' later and everybody smiled while, with the aid of the flash-light, they were, 'tooked." . Among those who enjoyed the evening were Senator and Mrs Hilton, Judge and Mrs Blakeley, Mr and Mrs Hobson, Mr and Mra Lord, Dr and Mrs Rinehart, Judge and Mra Bradshaw, Mr and Mra Glenn, Mr and Mrs Bayard, Mr. and Mra Crossen, Mr and Mrs Hostetler, Mr and Mrs Crowe, Mr and Mra Houghton, Mr and Mrs Beall, Judge .and Mrs Bennett, Mr and Mrs Brigga, Misses Mary Frazier, Vir ginia and Grace Marden, Messrs Ed Hostetler, H Lonsdale, - S Campbell, M Donnell and Dr Logan MAKCFACTUREKS OF Fine Lard and Sausages.
