An Adventist camp meeting now in progress at Milton is reported to be the largest ever held in that part of the country, hundreds being in attendance. The Spokane & Portland Telephone Co. recently shipped two carloads of telephone poles to Hood River to be used on the line which passes through here. Caseberg and Guinther finished shear ing J. B. Morton's sheep yesterday and their average fleece is ten pounds. The band throughout are the best they have een this season. In the circuit court today is being heard the trial of Emil Beck for larceny. There is a second indictment charging him with forgery. It is alleged that about the middle of February he pur loined seven railroad tickets from the office at the Umatilla house, besides cash, aggregating in value altogether $476. State Printer Frank C. Baker has placed the Chronicle under obligations for copies of the road and fish and game laws, which have just been issued from the press. In a note Mr. Baker says : "Yon may say in your journal that any of your readers may obtain from this office a copy of the road laws or fish and game laws, or both. A 2-cent stamp is respectfully requested." Mr. John Klint, who lives near the city, favored this office with a box of Sharpless strawberries which are a mar Tel for size and beauty. Some of them are so large that they almost lose their identity as strawberries. Mr. Klint in forms us he has the finest prospects for berries he ever has had. With a few warm days they will ripen fast enough to supply a large trade. They will be on sale at Kirbys' and Chrisman & Corsons. Gat Flowers for isale.

Will Many Others Be They Hear the News. When J. L. Story, an attorney of this city was one of the happiest men we have met for some time last night, and the reason of it was, that the register of the land office had notified Mr. Story that he had just received decisions in fourteen cases that Mr. Story had ap- I pealed to the general land office some two rears an) in which there had been! adverse claims by the Northern PacificV railroad company, and the settlers on the land. Mr. Story appearing for the settlers and appealed the cases on the following grounds : First That the land applied for, is land that was covered by the Northern Pacific railroad company's grant which was forfeited, and restored to public domain and rendered subject to settle ment or purchase. Second That The Dalles military road grant never included any odd sec tions within the Northern Pacific rail road company's grant forfeited as afore said. Third That the land covered by these applications never was selected or withdrawn by The Dalles Military road company as provided by law, and they never acquired any rights thereto. This settles a question that will give many farmers in Sherman county a title to their homes, and it seems to be a just decision. MODERN MAXIMS. Some Sage and 'Witty Sayings by a Cele- brated Writer. "It is part of the sage to make max ims. I have for some time suspected that I have arrived at the period of life when the sage is at bis best, and I have now therefore tried my hand at a few useful maxims. Here they are a mixed and miscellaneous lot. Of course, the sage at this time must be cynical in order to be popular. I hope some of these are cynical enough. Those on riches seem to a partial parent to be maxims really worthy of the most east ern the most Himalayan of sages. "Out of ten men nine are born to work for the tenth. Resolve to be the tenth. "Without trampling the cleverest cannot get rich. "Dives is never sn- example, because nobody considers himself really rich. "If you cannot become rich, remem ber the many miseries of the rich. "The consolation of those who fail is to depreciate those who succeed. "He who foresees never acts. "The greatest things are done by the greatest fools. "Wise men never attempt anything. "When you lose a leg begin at once to practice with a wooden one. "Men's motives are mercifully hidden by their shirt fronts. "Observe moderation in all things especially in virtues. "The best way to make a man honest is to make him ashamed oi being found out. "There may be pride even in confess ing mistakes. "Everybody says that gentle birth is an accident, and everybody treats it as an achievement. "The most charming attribute of friendship is the right of candor. "Cheerfulness may be an admirable cloak." Walter Besant, in Queen. I will furnish ice to any and all patrons at 25 cents per 100 pounds. Leave or ders at C. F. Lauer's, or on the wagon. C. E.

PERSONAL MENTION. Joseph Howard, one of Crook county's commissioners, arrived today from Port land and will return home in the morn ing. Mr. W. K.

Uondgdon ar rived from Umatilla yesterday to per manently reside, which will be gratifying news to their many friends. Mrs. A. M. Williams and daughters Misses May and Otrace, accompanied b Miss Matilda Hollister, left on the af ternoon train for Portland where the will take the Northern Pacific for Ch cago. J. T. Mullen, who has been stenogra pher lor Attorney Bennett for three years, leaves for Portland on the after noon train to permanently reside. He will pursue his art among the Portland courts. Before going away he went to the Celilo fishery for the afternoon, in company with Walter Khndt. Mr. M. M. Waterman of 8-Mile called on the Chronicle today. He reports grain in excellent condition and that winter wheat on his ranch is heading and is standing first-class on the ground .and promises a heavy vield per acre. His spring grain is doing well and is a good bight. The ground is not in need of rain, as it is wet enough at present. A good rain will be beneficial later on. Mesers. J. W. and Smith French re turned from their trip to the Gilman & Co. ranchers in Morrow and Grant counties last night. They report the country as looking fine, grass every where of luxurious growth and grain in fine condition through the several sec tions in which they passed. They found the ground very wet near the foot of the Blue mountains and the farmers back ward with their spring work. Warm weather was needed and marvelous growth would be the result. HOTEL ARRIVALS.

Mosier ma largely patronized by our good peoplfc last Thursday evening. The proceeds wre given for the benefit of the Sunday School in district Fifty two. It is not always the biggest bundles that give the most joy, as was evidenced at the home of Frank Wiedner on May 26th. An eight-pound boy registered there on that date and from indications has come to stay, a fact which Mr. and Mrs. Wiedner both seem to enjoy. A large panther disputed the pat ith Night Watch Hugh Waters on one of the trestles below here last week, and Hugh' commenced crawfishing. The wild animal suddenly made a weighty bound far into the night. The night watch said the trestle was about eighty feet high where the animal went over, and remarked the panther was about nineteen feet long. Mr. Waters hair also "riz" about two feet. 6 UlLiiic on the bail gruunds"Mav 30th was quite a success socially, as was intended. The ball game between the Mosier X Ls and the Washington Rous ters did not come off. The latter club probably realizing they would not be in it, failed to put in an appearance. A few old spavined, broken down players among them your humble servant agreed to piav tne dovs, and alter a closely contested game, limped off the diamond, wearing the laurels viz, a score of 11. to 15. When we see a hard-laboring, suc cessful business man, one who has made a record through the fruits of his efforts, we like to say "put" 'er there, old boy ; if we weren't so blamed tired all the time, we could do as well as you." Lee Evans, one of our most successful farm ers, deserves special praise from the fact that he has as fine a young orchard as there iB in the state ot Oregon. Mr. Evans has only been here six years, and it is indeed astonishing to see the work he has accomplished in that short- time. If any one feels disheartened with their ranch, better take a look at Mr. Evans' place and then go home and swing the mattock with renewed-vigor. "He that hath a horn to toot let the same by. him be tooted." While we do not relish this sort of a thing as a steady diet, still we do like to blow our own bugle once in a while. People here are complaining because the "Mosier Mus ings" are not more regular. Of course such talk as this makes us feel good all the way up and then back down again. Yet we cannot muse unless we have something to muse over. Good people, get to doing something; shoot your neighbor's hog, or poison his chickens. "We'll do the rest."
