Here, the buds are almost ready to bloom. ' " This locality was visited with a nice, warm rain last night and this morning. The temperature "ranges from 55 to 70 degrees today. ' .. Attorneys Eiddell and Dafur leave for Wamic this, afternoon, to. try the Mart New rape case, which comes off tomor ' row. Riddell appears for the state and Duf ur for the defense. The squirrel pest is so extensive in the northern part of Marion county that farmers are paying 5 cents reward on their scalps in addition to the 5 cents bounty given by the county.

Patterns, PEASE & MAYS. still on- hand east of the Rockies, have stimulated the Chicago wheat market: Wheat took a sharp jump to 61 and dropped back to 60 cents per bushel, where it stopped at latest advices! Last night the track at Reid's ranch, near Bonneyville, . again went out by floods, altogether seven lengths of rail, incluuing the new trestle bridge across the scene of trouble. No train from Portland can arrive today. .Washouts east have also delayed trains from that direction. Rev. E. D. Sutcliffe, who has been rector of St. Paul's 'parish for tbe past five years, will take his departure some time next month to occupy a larger field of usefulness near New York City. He has made many friends while here, who will all join in wishing him abun dant success wherever his lot may be cast. - Counterfeit dimes made of aluminum are now being circulated in considerable numbers. The coins are a fine imitation of the real, and to take then singly it would puzzle any expert to detect the fraud. They have a clear ring and the only flaw is in the milling, as they vary slightly from the silver dime in size. Col. Pat Donan has at last struck a snap, and a section of country which his wonderful pen cannot overboom, .if we take tbe account for it published in the Globe-Democrat of recent date. This account of a new El Dorado in Virginia, brought to Col. Donan's notice, is pub lished in another column in this issue. Mr. E. B. McFarland and wife have jnst suffered another heart-rending loss by death. Their little. 3-year-old boy, Henry, died this morning. 'The remains are expected to arrive on the passenger train tonight, to be interred by the side of his sister, who was buried only a few days ago. The family have now but two of their children left, six of them having paseed away. " They have the keenest sympathies of the entire community in their repeated misfortunes. Mrs. Burden, of Athena, has sent an inquiry to Pendleton concerning ' three children, two girls and a boy, who were spirited away by" her husband, from whom she is se pirated. The family re sided formerly at Walla Walla, but she has been working at Athena to support herself and family. It is supposed the husband has gone East with tbe young sters. The mother is reported to" be nearly distracted over their di sap pear- Mad Becaoae He - Wasn't Drowned. While fishing on the bank of Stony creek, in Norristown, - Pa., Johnnie Johnson, a lad of twelve years, tum bled in the -water, and sank beneath the surface. Other boys saw him dis appear, and they scampered away for aid. Johnnie struggled nn til he reached dry land and then took to his heels. Half an hour later he stood on the bridge, watching a crowd ot men rak ing the water of the creek with grap pling hooks. He became interested in the strange occupation of -the men, never dreaming they were looking for his body. He remained on the bridge an hour until his clothes dried, and then descended , to the - creek bank, where the anxious crowd was watch-, ing the dragging of the stream. "What you doing?" inquired Johnnie 6f -one who had just come out of the water. "Looking- for Johnnie' Johnson's corpse," replied the man. "He tum bled in there two hours ago." "Why, I'm Johnnie Johnson,", said the as tonished lad. Then ' he explained to the disgusted crowd of people who had been eager to see a limp body pulled from the creek, and had his. ears well boxed for his pains. lgee -ALSO- "Nutl Said." Easter 'Whist.

Eastern investors who have been put ting money into Kansas farms are now looking for a country where investments are more secure. They want to find a country where a large investment will yield a small certainty one year with an other, not n . country where a small in vestment runs a risk of a total loss. Such a class of people will find what they are looking fer when they see the farm and fruit lands of Eastern Oregon. A few of the more speculative will find their opportunity in Eastern Oregon gold mines ; and in one way and another this part of the country never, had a better outlook for a class of immigration that will come with money' and expecting to use it. Opportunities such as Oregon possesses will not long go begging in fact, the process is being rapidly revers ed, and people are beginning to hunt for Oregon. La Grande Chronicle. . PERSONAL MENTION.

' The same state of affairs that made the elections of tbe East so "overwhelmingly republican will be apparent in the far West, and this .year republicans will not . stay at home. It is not supposed, however, that the vote, as cast today, will repre sent the entire number of republican votes at the election, for there . are hundreds of democrats, who wilt have no ': voice at ; the. ' primaries, who will .' this year ' cast;: a " vote for a , republican . administration from president to justice of the peace. . The decided action noticed in today's prima ries augurs well for success, and ' enthu siasm will increase .until election day. Now for a long pull, a strong pull and a pull all together and victory is ours. It is the general desire to "nominate the very best men in the party, and this year there is more good timber than ever.

Insist on their prices and accept no substitute. Useless Expenditures for the Military? The world supports nine million men in its standing armies and standing navies. A statistician computes that the money spent on' these in excess of what is needed to provide them with the necessaries of life .would prov ide with such necessaries half of the men now put of employment. . He empha sizes the fact that the world's men militant receive fair pay in addition to their support and that the workings men who manufacture the arms and munition of war receive high wages. - Santa Fe, N.

Rev. , Dr.' Meredith, the ; well-known Brooklyn clergyman, tries to cultivate friendly relations with the younger members of his flock. In a recent talk to his Sunday-school he urged the chil dren to speak to him whenever they met. The next day a dirty-faced ur chin, smoking a cigarette, .and having a" generally disreputable, appearance, accosted him on the' street with: "How do. Doc?" The clergyman stopped at once and cordially inquired: "And who are you, sir?" ; "I'm one of your little lambs," replied the boy, affably.. "Fine, day.
