" He stood upon the ocean's sandy beach, And with a reed he wrote upon the sand these words: Prices Beyond Competition! But the winds came, and the waves rolled mountain high, And blotted out the fair impression. Cruel waves, treacherous sand, fragile reed, No longer will I trust to thee; But from the mountain peak I'll pluck the tallest-pine, And, dipped in the crater of Vesuvius, with it I'll write Upon the high and burnished sky these tender words:" Pease & Mays have the fairest priced goods in Dalles City; They are now offering their Spring line at such equitable Prices as would almost take your breath away, and I Would like to see any dog-goned wave wash that out!

Mary bought a fountuin pen Which looked quite too delightful, But when she tried to write with it. The words she used were frightful. Another beautiful day. The fitful music of the steam woodsaw was again heard today. The "Deestrick Skule" will have another rehearsal tonight. Several loads of wheat were hauled to the Regulator wharf today.

Saltmarsh & Co. inform us that the shipment of stock has fallen off somewhat owing to the scarcity from the interior. Messrs. Geo. Lyle and Rhea of Prine ville, are in the city loading their wagons with freight for merchants in that thriv ing young city. Mr. N. Harris, who has been afflicted with "Job's comforter" for the past week, is able to be in his store today at tending to business. There is a big demand in California for Oregon bur bank potatoes, farmers being paid 75 cents per bushel for them at Eugene for shipment. Two young ladies of the Dalles, accom panied by a male escort went across the river with a camera today and took views of the city opposite them and the river. The Day brothers, who have the con tract for completing the Cascade locks, state that the locks will be finished and boats running through the canal next year, says the Glacier. Burt Bagley and Max Bartell, two boys, had a sanguine encounter in the East End yesterday, which was fought to a finish.

He states that some Portland parties are also looking to this field for investment. The Wasco warehouse loaded six freight teams with merchandise for Prineville and Tygh Valley today ... Georgia is to send the best exhibit yet announced to the world's fair. It is a family where the husband and wife have been married only eleven years and yet have thirty children, the wife havin borne triplets each time. Baker's Jag. The Salem Independent tells of a fear ful spree lately indulged by Frank C. Baker, state printer, in which his wife fled for safety, while he was left alone in the house in monarchial possession. He began picking up chairs and hurled them through the closed windows ; then followed lamps, dishes, and everything on the lower floor that he could get his hands on. The front door sash is broken all to pieces, as are also the win dows in the rear of the house ; the floors of the rooms in the lewer story are littered with broken glass, dishes and furniture, and the house looks as though it had been sacked by a mob. Two years ago Mr. Baker went on a spree and raised "old Ned" generally. He smashed to pieces hundreds oi dol lars' worth of furniture, cut to pieces his wife's sealskin sacque, and upset nearly everything in the house. Not content with this, he slapped both his wife and stepdaughter, then took a canary bird from its cage, plucked out all the feath ers and flung it into the yard to die in agony. For all this. Judge Goodell fined him $10 and costs, amounting in all to about $15. Such travesty on jus tice could probably not be found outside of Salem. Omlnons Warning. Say, Hood River, look out for your Coon. Our dog Keno is loose. Git out. Dufcb. PERSONAL MENTION. Mr. Legg departed this morning by the Regulator for his home in Salem. J. J.

ENTOMOLOGIST TO BE HERE. Mr. Koeklo Will Soon Address the Peo ple of The Dalles. Towards the end of April Mr. Albert Koeble, a valuable special agent of the :overnment in the entomological line, ill visit The Dalles. Mr. Koeble is one f the most trusted agents of the gov ernment, possessing a love for his work, having traveled extensively and having been successful in finding and procuring parasites for many pests. He has the sincere confidence of Prof. C. V. Riley, United States entomologist at Washing ton, who sends him, and that gentleman asks the hearty co-operation and atten tion of all fruit-growers when he arrives. Mr. Koeble discovered and was in strumental in introducing into Califor nia the famous Verdalia Cardinalis, or lady bird, which saved the orange trees of that state from the ravages of the Icerya purchasi, or cottony cushion scale. The government recently sent Mr. Koeble to Australia, Japan and other foreign countries to study and dis cover, is possible, other beneficial in sects, and the result of this trip was the importation of many beneficial insects. Mr. Koeble has many charts illustrating various injurious and beneficial insects, with the assistance of which he will be able to give very interesting talks. Much information can be gained, not only regarding insects, but also in re gard to the quarantine laws in other states, the mode of working orchards, curing and handling fruit, and working up a market. In a letter Mr. Riley state?, as another object of his mission that M r. Koeble will make observations on the hop plant louse and conduct cer tain experiments as a verification- of re sults he has already had in New York, of which it is probable, the San Jose scale is one. The Cheoniclb will give notice a few days in advance of his ar rival when and where he will speak. The Journal is Bight.

It is refreshing to see the young or chards that are being started here This is no doubt a choice fruit country, and upon this industry we must largely depend for success. The old timers (mossbacks) have gone to work in earnest digging fish bait, an something will be done to benefit man kind if they don't tire out, or if th spring fever does not strike them. The new comers (which includes us) are plowing and planting, grubbing aud preaching, and otherwise tickling the earth and the inhabitants thereof in a way to obtain the smiles of Providence in a bountiful harvest, etc. I congratulate you upon the improved condition of The Cheoniclb. Editori ally and typographically it is hard to beat. You are giving good satisfaction, and, with a slight effort, a large list of subscribers could be secured at this office. Keno's items on candidates attending the cock fight in a barn near the town that is to "get a move on itself" and that is to be "strictly in it," and stating that as a liar he is not "in it," would be. witty if the slang could be expunged from the otherwise pungent article. Slang, like bad spelling, will spoil the keenest wit. These particular expres sions are too old for further use ; they are like ticks on a horse out of tick sea son, really no ornament in their time. The second reign of Grover the first is not giving entire satisfaction among the faithful here. He gives his party less satisfaction than any president who has ever ruled over this nation. This dis like does not spring from his veto of the widow's pension bill, nor from his doff ing his hat to a rebel flag, for these things were known before his election, but it springs from the fact that the democratic king proposes to appoint to office men who are qualified for the office, according to Grover's own indi vidual ideas. Fuse must must have riz' under this free trade administration. A. Single ton, a poor, but highly respected home steader near here, improvised a fuse with a honeysuckle filled with black powder, which he connected with the main charge, and after properly tamp ing it, he ignited the fuse with a match and retreated, but not in good order. Not being quite as quick as lightning he did not reach a safe distance before the explosion. When consciousness re turned he was pleased to find neither eye out. This is one instance where ignorance was bliss-tered. Cholerine is the latest fashionable epidemic spoken of here for the coming summer, and if we have anything in the line of internal bacteria this summer it is cholerine ; it is ultra fashionable. Heart failure and blood poisoning are obsolete. Mosier, April 10th. THROTTLE AND CAB. Meaty Morsels of News and Gossip for Trainmen. Ollie Barrett is on the sick list. Engine 546 is laid in for a few re pairs. Joe Reedy is running the 560 during Barrett's illness. Engineer Erhart is running the 380 instead of 546. Joe says the 380 is a noble machine. Jim Nickle and Joe Wilson came in with the 520 oft' of the work train at Viento to have some work done on Sat urday eve, and returned this morning. The roadbed between this place and Portland will soon be the most substan tial in the state. The company have two work trains filling in trestles and will not take them off until all trestles are filled. The boys on the work trains at Viento are very fortunate in securing such an excellent cook as they have. She serves up a dish for dessert the boys call "opidil doc" that cannot be beaten for its ex cellent flavor. Fireman Brown is back on his run again after an extensive lay-off. He says there is no place like home, and that he shall be contented to remain at The Dalles and not roam again in south ern latitudes. And Smokey says "I am with you." The following verses were written for Brakemau J. F. Shannon at Viento, whose dog was killed by No. 8 on April 1st, 1893. The boys all feel very sad and try to console Mr. Shannon in his hours and days of distress. Dog Shannon now is dead, Of course this you all know, And this is what makes my pard sad As we to work do go! Now, Doggy Shannon she did go A-walking on the track, When Curtis and his 'jine came by And broke her little back. When Jack first discovered her She was lying on the rail ; Her head was prostrate on the bank And on the track her tail. Now, Jack went to the section boss. And unto Rim did say : "Won't you be kind enough, dear 6ir, To bury her today." The day was very stormy, The songs and words were few, And Frank did gently bury her Without much ado. Now, Jack, I know you won't be mad, It would not do, you know, You saw the piece I wrote for Booze About a year ago. You laughed at me about the bird That wouldn't go to church, And little did I then expect To get vou in the lurch . But now, dear Jack, we'll call it square xnai ib, ii you so cnoose, I mean this for a memorial Just like I wrote for Booze. C. P. W. CANNING COMPANY. A Long-Needed Industry to Be Estab lished In The Dalles. Articles of incorporations were filed today by The Dalles Fruit Drying and Packing Co. with head office at The Dalles. The capitol stock is $5,000. The incorporators are S. B. Adams, C. E. Chisman, Hugh Chrisman and W. K. Corson. They are already busily en gaged working up the trade, and secur ing fruit-ime man s Uiup haUal ready "been engaged at a cent and a half per pound. S. B. Adams will shortly go to Portland and Salem to look over the modus operandi of like establishments with a view to make the establishment here one of the most thorough-going in the Northwest. The famous Chrisman fruit dryer will be used, which is the best model so far known. The Dalles has long wanted an estab lishment of this kind, and The Chroni cle is very glad to announce its incep tion, which bids fair to assume colossal proportions. Its incorporators are men of well-known business capacity and financial ability, and the way they are commencing is an earnest of the sub stantial and reliable business they are sure to build up. It is refreshing to chronicle an event of this kind, in view of the many enterprises, started with flattering promises only to collapse in the years agone. Look Over Your County Warrants.

The very common and much despised but odoriferous dog-fennel is not indige nous to Oregon soil. The Guard ac counts for its presence in the Yamhill valley by the fact of a farmer receiving a TlflflrftCP of rapH frrtm a frtonrt in f V,A 3 O - w... . . ...... v . . 11 111,' East, who insisted that it would produce "beautiful flowers." The seed was sparingly divided around the neighbor hood, and a grand crop of dog fennel was the result, much to the disgust of the ladies. Patent medicines differ One has reasonableness, another has not. One has reputation another has not. One has confidence, born of success, another has only "hopes." Don't take it for granted that all patent medicines are alike. They are not. Let the years of uninterrupted success and the tens of thousands of cured and happy men and women, place Dr. Pierce's Golden Med ical Discovery and Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription on the side of the compari son to which they belong. And there isn't a state Or territory, no nor hardly a country in the world, whether its peo ple realize it or not, but have men and women in them that're happier because of their discovery and their effects. Think of this in health. Think of it in sickness. And then think whether you you can afford to make the trial if the makers can afford to take the risk to give your money back, as they do, if they do not benefit or cure you. NOTICE. Mrs. S. A.
