hold good after July 1st.
An exchange says : One of our citi
zens set a hen last week and two days
Later found Eva live chickens in the nest.
But then there has been a. good deal of
. talk of fusion this year, anyway, and so
this is not such a wonder after all.
Rev. E. D. Sutcliffand family left last

the Willamette and he believes they
have immigrated ' in large numbers
across the mountains.' They have a de

Among the varied features to be in
troduced during the performance of "Si

the Burton-Coleman Company at the
opera house next Wednesday : night,
April 25th, is their olio specialties, and
the famous "Si Perkins" orchestra,
directed by Prof. S. V. Downs, which is
sure to be entertaining. Of the play it
self we need only - to Bay that for laugh
ing - purposes there are no better, and
this has been proven by the large audi
ences it always attracts, and which is
sure to be in attendance next Wednes
day evening. The parade given by the
famous Pugtown farmers' band is great,
be sure and see it at noon. Admission,

"Bread on the Waters," a juvenile
drama, was presented at Armory Hall
last evening by the Juvenile Temple and
was very meritoriously produced. We
believe this is the first attempt by this
band at anything of this nature, and
considering that fact, they all did ad
mirably; so well, indeed that they have
already received an offer to give the play
at Cascade Locks. The action of the
drama is sprightly and has an interest
ing plot, with the proper sprinkling of
comedy. Following is ths cast of
characters':

Not the least interesting feature of the
evening was a selection spoken by
Master Edward Baldwin, being Mark
Twain's reply to a toast, "The Baby,"
which for emotional humor has no equal
in the English language, and Master
Edward, in a mock-dignified tone, suited
to the piece, declaimed it superbly.
