The finest strawberries that have yet

Strawberries will probably not be as
cheap this year as last on account of the
demand for canning to take the place of
cherries and peaches which will be a
short crop. Pacific Farmer.

In the case of Thomas A. Holden, Sec
retary Hoke Smith yesterday held that
all lands within the limits of the grant
to the Oregon Central Railroad Com
pany were reduced to $1.25 per acre by
the forfeiture act of January 31, 1886,
and this could not except lands falling
within the conflicting limits ot the Ore
gon Central and Northern Pacific roads.
The children were treated yesterday
afternoon to a phonograph concert. A
horn attachment intensified the sound,
so that the reproduction of the pieces
could be heard in all parts of the hall.
These pieces comprise difficult band
music, comic selections, late vocal songs
by prominent singers, speeches, etc.
The Edison phonograph is a wonderful
invention.
W. D. Richards, a' thrifty farmer of
Fairfield, near 8-Mile, brought in a roll
of Jersey butter for our inspection which
is certainly as excellent as it is possible
for butter to be. An example of the
benefit of handling blooded stock is to
be found in the case of Mr. Richards,
who from only five Jersey cows, sells 40
pounds weekly from them, including
what milk and butter are used by his
family. This butter commands the
higbest market price.

and Mr. S. L. Brooks the second, a
turtle on a half shell. Afterwards
a delicate lunch of strawberries
and cream with inlaid cake and lemon
ade were served. During the lunch a
guest was requested to render the piece
"The Broken Pitcher" and responded
with a broken plate to the great amuse
ment of the guests.

FOUND DEAD.
The Body of Wm. Murphey Discovered
Near His Cabin.
L. Francesco Saturday morning found
the dead body of Wm. M. Murphey,
about a quarter of a mile from the lat
ter's cabin. The body was lying by a
log and, from appearances death had
taken place nearly a week before. Jus
tice Knox of Baldwin precinct held the
inquest on the body Sunday, with the
following jury : Dave Wishart, D. R.
Cooper, George Perkins, George Wis
hart, Thomas A. Connor and Frank.
Reis. The body was badly deqpuipoaed,
and an examination disclosed a bruise
three or four inches in diameter on the
top of the head with the skin broken in
several places. All around the body
were horse tracks, and marks of a drag
ging rope. The evidence of Mr. Fran
cesco was that several days before he
had walked a short distance with de
ceased who was then' going' toward the
place where the body was found, for the
purpose of catching his horse. The jury
found that his death was caused by the
horse kicking him. Deceased had re
ceived some $600. recently, from the
government in payment of Indian dep
redation claim, and had deposited it in
The Dalles National bank. His check
book showed that it had all been paid,
or loaned out to different parties. Mur
phey was a pioneer, and was, we under
stand, in the battle with the Indians at
the Lower Cascades. Hood River

Card. Party.
The first of a series of Columbian
whist and luncheon parties, so we are
informed, was given last evening by
Mrs. E. C. Pease, assisted by her sister,
Mrs. Wallace Bradford, ot San Francisco.
After the guests had all put in an appear
ance score cards for whist were distrib
uted and ten games played, resulting in
Mr. W. H. Hobson being presented
with the first prize one of those beau
tiful baskets at Pease & Mays, inside of
which was a very mysterious looking
package with a card attached on which
were words only adding to the mystery,
"I never sau-sage a prize." After
much persuasion the package was
opened and a lovely bologna sausage
was brought to light. Mrs. J. M. Pat
terBon received the bottle with the in
junction to be a little sharper next time,
but as they were told the bottle con
tained vinegar, they felt there was no
danger of her taking to hard drink even
if she did get the booby prize. The
guests were then invited to the dining
room, where the covers were laid for
sixteen. The lunch, as well as the
table decorations, were of an unusual
order and indeed very unique. The
center-piece was presented to the hostess
and her sister by Dr. Doane, and was
certainly a rare exotic, imported, so
'twas said, from Cork. There were
several other bouquets that deserve spe
cial mention, but to do them justice one
should be a first-class botanist.
At a late hour the guests departed,
having spent a very jolly evening.
Those participating were: Mr. and
Mrs. E. C. Pease, Mrs. W. Bradford,
Mr. and Mrs. R. F. Gibons, Mr. and
Mrs. C. Cushing, Dr. and Mrs. O. D.
Doane, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Bayley, Mr.
and Mrs. J. M. Patterson, Mr. and M
