Decrease of Tax ltecelpta.
Wasco county is loser this year some
$1,800 in taxes, which have heretofore
been uncomplainingly paid every year
since 18S4 by The Dalles Military Road
Lund Company. Through theirattorney,
Mr. Hudson of this place, they were ap
prised that there was no law compelling
them to pay these taxes, Eince no title
has been guaranteed by tho railroad
company in any case, so that the lands
have never been listed.
Wasco county's loss is but a email
share of the whole. Taxes have been
paid to Sherman county amounting to
$3,000. Grant county $1,400 and Crook
county a small sum. Taking into con
sideration school, county, and all other
forms of lax, the net saving to the com
pany will be in tho neighborhood of
:f 10,000, while the several counties may
bemoan a corresponding loss to their
annual revenue.
A Vukiiau Aerolite.
Three years ago, on November lltb,an
aerolite fell in this valley and was
located by Richard Sisk on tho Wenas.
In its descent it threw oil' small globules
of fire and presented a novel sight. Tho
exact spot where it fell could not bo
located until Friday last, when it was
taken out of tho ground, A large crowd
of curiosity seekers havo been viewing it
since it was brought to the city, it being
on display at Col. Taggard's. The
meteor weighs exactly 12' pounds, and
very strongly resembles a cinder. Im
aginative spectators maintain that an
angel's face is plainly outlined upon one
sido of the concave formation. The re
porter, however, could not suo it. The
stone, or ore, or whatever it may be
called, is quite magnetic, although it lias
been Imbedded in tho earth for three
years. Republic.

Hero is n good thing on Bill Nye,
which, wo believe, has never before been
aired by printer's ink. Our readers are
awaro ol tho fact that Mr. Nye visited
this coast a few months ago on a lectur
ing tour. Vhilo in San Francisco ho
undertook to chaperon a Boston literary
party and ho put on considerable "dog"
in doing it. Ho never lost any points in
scoring his superior knowledge of San
Francisco, especially in tho way of do
mestic economy. The Bostoneso, in
fact, were educated in a few days to be
lieve that Bill know all about San Fran
cisco hostelries, and they trusted him
implicitly. Tho whole gang, Nvo in
cluded, wero stopping at tho Palace
hotel, where as most pcoplo are aware,
tho cost of existence is somewhat high.
Sam Davis, the notorious wit and cheer
ful liar of the Carson, (Nev.) Appeal, ap
proached Nye one day and said : "Look
here, Nye, of conree its business for you
to stop at tho Palaco; that's all right
enough, but if you knew how to live in
Frisco, like us newspaper jockeys you
could be saving a good many dollars
every day. A few of us are going to dine
this afternoon at a French establish
ment, and I would like to have you join
us." Nye promptly accepted tho in
vitation. Then Davis went to (he
Maison Riche and fixed things witli the
cashier. When the party set down to
dine Sam, as host, asked the privilege
of ordering the dinner, which was a
most elaborate affair, even for a French
hostelry, including from relishes to
cigars, fully seventeen courses. When
the dinner was concluded the little pro
cession marched to the cashier's counter,
where Sam very ostentatiously asked,
"Well, garcon, how much do we owe
you?" "Two dollars and fifty cents,"
replied the cashier.
When they gained the street Nye
could hold in no longer. "Great Moses
and Aaron, Davis, why that dinner is
truly a revelation to me! Why, do you
know that a good meal for myself alone
at the Palace costs me as much as you
paid for all of us." "Well said Sam
quietly. "I told you you didn't know
how to live in Frisco.
Nye did just what Davis expected he
would do. He lost no time in saying to
his Bostonese friends: "You people
outside of the newspaper world don't
know how to live in San Francisco.
Dine with me tomorrow afternoon, and
I'll show you how to get a superb din
ner for a song." And the Bostonese
dined with Nye at the Maison Riche.
Bill selected item for item the same
dinner that Davis ordered, and when it
was over Nye, at the cashier's desk,
asked in a tone louder than was neces
sary, "Well, landlord, what is your bill?"
and the cashier suavely replied, "Eight
een dollars and seventy-five cents,
Monsieur."
Nyo paid the bill and never said a
word about it to Davis, and Davis never
told Nye that the dinner he ordered cost
exactly tho same Eiim.

Tlie Hiib.'lileuco of tho Into panic has
left prices low on all commodities, with
a disposition on the part of coiiMtniurs to
buy sparingly. Jit consequence Btocks
are light, with careful regard to not over
replenish.
The wheat inaikot may bo said to be
tlii!'nio't active, yet prices rulo low, and
an advance of a cent or morn per bushel
is not continued for any length of time,
tho tendency being to decline again to
former quotations. The speculative
tendency of tho season is lighter than
formerly, and offerings are reduced.
Quotations are substantially tho same
as last week, and thcro is no change in
farm produce. Eggs bring 27c cash and
28c in trade and butter f)0c per roll.
Staple commodities tiro unchanged.
Wool has not yet shown a tendency of
a reaction in prico aud rules as low as
formerly.
Hides and pelts are likewise low aud
give little encouragement. Beef skins
