burglared yesterday morning and about
. $100 worth of valuables taken.

They were consequently ..discharged.

The German Christian Benevolent
Society met yesterday, afternoon at the
residence of Mrs. George Liebe. About
twelve ladies were present. Mrs. Liebe
was elected president for the third suc
cessive time. After the business had
been disposed of the ladies were invited
to a fine lunch in the dining room. The
table was decorated with a beautiful
center piece of wild flowers, while at
each place was a delicate boutonniere of
violets. "
The Ben C. Irwin Printing Co., Port
land, has recently finished up a fine set

taining dollars and cents (unit ruled)
for eighteen columns under different
headings. The other is nearly as intri
cate. The books are bound in half Rus
sia and corduroy and cost only $27 for
both.

Somebody, evidently a horse thief, en
tered Mr. C. L. Richmond's barn last
night, and secured a horse, placing upon
him a set of harness which hang on a
convenient peg, and leading him out,
bitched him to a post while he' went
after its mate. The other horse wae
quite fractious and not relishing the ac
tion of the midnight intruder, reared
and snorted and made such a commotion
that the thief abandoned his intention
and fled. He left a cane, which is the
only clue to his identity, and Mr. Rich
mond says he will retnrn it to the owner
if he will . call.
A number of flat cars containing steel
rails have arrived in the city and will be
unloaded at The Dalles. It is expected
that 400 car loads altogether will arrive,
and will be -used in reconstructing the
road bed between The Dalles and Port
land. . ,
The first Church Social.
Cascade Locks, March 1. Special
Correspondence. Under vthe able man
agement . of Misses Everhart, Parkins
and Aldrich, last evening, Feb. 28th,
was given the first church social in the
history of Cascade Locks. And be it
said to the glory of the Locks that if
church socials were as well attended
generally as this one was the churches
of the country would have to be enlarged
and the treasurer's office would not be
o much of an honorary nature. ' One
hundred and forty persons were served
with refreshments and the receipts were
twenty-eight dollars. A good program
was rendered, the opening piece being a
piano solo by Miss Mary Shafer, the
primary teacher of the echool, a man
dolin and guitar duet by Messrs. Thorn p
kins anf Horton ; select ' reading by
Miss Parkins ; recitation by Mr. .Lewis ;
vocal solo, Mi89 Shafer; violin solo, Miss
Blackwood, of Portland ; mandolin and
banjo duet, Messrs. Thompkins and
Tarbot, the closing piece an instru
mental quartet by Messrs. Tarbot, violia,
Clark, flute, Thompkins,' mandolin and
Horton, guitar.
The principal feature of the evening
was the spring opening of millinery, the
woik of the deft fingers of the gentle
men. Some of the hats were fearfully
and wonderfully made. About forty
were trimmed. For the most artistic
and carefully trimmed hat Mr. A. S.
Fleet received a delicious cake, and Mr.
Eyrairer, well, he did not get a delicious
cake, but a very pretty cake of soap,
for the trimming of an article, whicb
when finished, he called a hat. The
affair - all through was pleasant and
social and the young ladies are con
gratulated on every hand and requested
to give another in the near future.

A Chameleon.
Mr. W. E. Garretson is the happy
possessor of a chameleon. It is the
genuine article and was, presented to
him by a San Francisco house, and came
by express without any trouble. It is
secured by a email gold chain around its
neck.' The tiny saurian resembles one
of our ordinary lizards, bat has the re
markable quality of changing its color.
This morning it was a brilliant green
and after noon was a delicate brown. In
a cool, dark place its color is nearly
white. Its tail is very long and ' slim
and is quite a graceful appendage. . Its
neck is so short thaj; it cannot turn its
head. It remains stationary a long
time if not disturbed, and is rather
sluggish. But quick don't express the
wonderful rapidity with which it can
thrust out its tongue in pursuit of a
passing fly or other winged insect. Its
eyes move independently of each ' other
and are also very quick. The chameleon
is much worn now by ladies in the east
as an ornament, as they are perfectly
harmless. Tiie changing of its color
is its only mode of defense,
and by doing this it frequently escapes
observation by its natural enemies.
This is almost as unique, but not so ef
fective as the porcupine, and is incom
parably inferior to the defense of the
common skunk. Still it is original.

Growth of Corals.
Corals increase by eg-ps, spontaneous
division and germination. The rate of
growth has not been fully determined.
Prof. Agassiz indicates the growth of
reefs at Key West at the rate of six
inches in one hundred years, and adds
that if we double that amount it
- would require seven thousand years to
form the reefs in that place and hun
dreds of. thousands of years for the
growth of Florida.

THE MARKETS.
Thursday, March 2. The volume'of
trade for. the past week has not in
creased materially, but has been fairly
steady. ; Prices continue unchanged.
There is. a tendency to advance quota
tions on sugar and beana. The market
iu firm in 'these staples. The coffee
market, while steady, shows some indi
cations of weakness. .'.--'
The provision market Tales quite
steady. The egg receipts are larger, and
while quotations are unchanged, the
tendency is a decline, as there is a feel
ing of weakness. Butter comes in
freely and prices are skrinking. The ar
rival of poultry is limited, and former
quotations are maintained. Complaints
are made by ' some that the supply is
short of current demand.
Fruits Green and dried are in fair
Bupply on a firm market, especially foV
best quality of good keeping apples.
. The grain market There ia nothing in
the present condition of the market to
comment upon. Reports irom the. grain
center, give out nothing to interest buy
ers or sellers. Firmer cables were
posted in Chicago yesterday, but these
are intermittent flashes which are con
sidered sensational and speculative, for,
the purpose of relieving the distressed
holders who have bought largely on
shorts. Our own coast markets are very
quiet and have no export movement to
report. ' Walla Walla wheat is quoted at
46 cents per bushel for choice milling
and shipping.
The wool market reports are dull and
really dead in the free trade stocks. Sec
ond lots of Eastern Oregon wool were dis
posed of in Boston a " few days , ago at
prices ranging from 9 to 10o cents per
lb. in the grease.

FARMER LEGISLATION. .
During the coming year there will be an Im
mense number of matters of the most vital in
terest to farmers dealt with bv Congress and the
Executive Departments at Washington. It is
highly important that the farmers be kept
promptly and fully Informed as to what is being
Elanned and done affecting tbem at the National -apltal.
They should all, therefore, take The
American FiBass, which, being on the ground,
has better facilities than any other papers for
getting this information, and devotes itself to
this duty. They will find in it constantly a
great amount of valuable information that they
can get in no other puper.
