The silent concert at the Methodist
church last night was a very pleasant
affair. The program, as published, was
carried out with the exception of the
vocal solo by Mrs. Bradshaw. The
"eilent concert" proved to be a guessing
contest, the names of musical selections
being represented in some way. Miss
Evelyn Newman won : first prize and
Mrs. Whisler second prize for correctly
guessing the titles represented.
The vans-Sontajr Company.
The Evans-Sontag company, which
has had so much difficulty in playing in
Southern Oregon towns, are in Portland.
The company consists of eighteen per
formers, including the wife and daugh
ter of Chris Evans, the noted bandit.
Of course there is blood and thunder in
the p'ay, but its authors claim it is not
a whit more demoralizing to public
morals than the popular Burglar, or
hundreds of other theatrical at Tactions.
As nearly everybody wants to see the
wife and daughter of the man hounded
from pillar to post, and who kept offi
cers of the law at bay for months, the
play takes well. Eva Evans, a pretty
girl, was married , four months ago to a
worthless pcamp, whom she has already
separated from. He was kicked out of
tbe company a few days since, and may
now be one of the Coxt-y "soldiers" for
all anybody knows. Miss Evans is but
17 years of age, and a very good actress,
considering her experience upon the
stage.
The City Jail.
The old city jail looks quite like a new
building in" the interior, and will here
after be a most comfortable place, both
in winter and summer. There are three
roomy cells, though somewhat dark, but
the corridor is well lighted. A water
closet , has been partitioned off and a
sink and wash haein is )eing prepared.
The marshal's office will be in the north
east corner instead of the northwest, as
formerly. The carpenters expect to
complete the work in a week.
Frost This Morning.
This morning a light frost was dis
cernable in places in the city. In the
country it is reported that ice formed to
the thickness of a sixteenth part of An
inch. It is not befieved the fruit is in
jured in the least.
Up Mill creek the frost was so severe
as to prostrate the bean vines, cucum

killing them. Water iroza in the hose
so that it would not flow.

Crop-Weather Bulletin.
The Oregon State Weather Service
gives out the following bulletin, No. 5,
for week ending May 1st for Eastern
Oregon :
Weather Cooler than . the average
temperature and excessive precipitation
were the weather conditions last week
which were prominent. Frosts occurred
frequently in the interior counties. The
sunshine was below the average.
Crops ' in the Columbia river valley
have had no unfavorable weather con:
ditions to prevent their rapid growth.
A constant improvement is noticeable.
Cheerful reports are received from all.
The fall wheat .crop bids fair to realize
the expectations of all classes concerned.
Fall wheat covers the ground in Uma
tilla county and the spring seeding is
coming up. lhe ground has an abund
ance of moisture. While-the tempera
ture has been cool it has not checked
the growth of grasses or have the light
frosts injured fruit bloom. One report
states some damage done by squirrels'
and also notes the growth of weeds in
some wheat fields. Grain and fruit
prospects aie good, even flattering in
many sections.' Garden work is pro
gressing. Many potatoes have been
planted. Seeding spring grain is being
completed in many sections. In some
counties the average crop has been
sown and in others there has been a
falling off. Crps in the interior coun
ties made a slow growth last week. The
temperature remained cold and the ex
cessive precipitation . was undesirable
for fall sown grain in tht. valleys, many
of which have been overflowed several
times from the high water in the creeks.
The rains will benefit grass on the range
and cause spring grain to sprout. Sou.e
fall sown wheat will have to be resown;
some was winter-killed. Apples, cher
ries, prunes and apricots are blooming
in favored places. Bloom ia backward.
owing to the cool weather, and the frosts
which have frequently occurred failed to
injure. Lambing 19 progressing with
slight loss'. '

Over one inch of rain fell-last week,
" Most farmers are behind with their
work.
Crops are doing fine, but will be late
if we do not get warmer weather soon.
Tlie prohis. meet Saturday niht.
The piogram will be good. All are in
vited. The special school meeting Saturday4
resulted in the election of E. Hannafir
and J. D. Willcox directors, to take the
places of W. F. Guyton and Joseph Pat
terson resigning.
The republican speaking, as an
nounced on the 28th, came off in grand
chape.' We wish to congratulate them
for the way they conducted the meeting.
They 'were a little hard on our populist
friends, but think they need all they
got, and perhaps more.
Mr.'C C. Hogue returned from his
trip out south, and reports roads in a
fearful condition. The last rain will not
improve them any. It will be almost
impossible for woo! teams t'j get any
where. Methink .teams will be Ecarce

Where the Czar Kays Jewels.
The shopkeepers of Copenhagen
make special preparations every year
for the visit of the czar, who patron
izes them extensively. He purchases
roods at jewelers' shops, and gives
Danish artists large orders. The jew
elry is intended mostly for presents,
especially among the police. The lat
ter have during' the czar's stay extra
work, as they must watch sharply
every strang-er, fend all ships and rail
way trains must be thoroughly ex
amined. The Copenhagen police would
not be able to do this without the as
sistance of the Russian secret police
agents, who are there during the czar's
visit. In spite of this, however, his
visit is always awaited with the great
est pleasure in police circles, for their
trouble is richly repaid by the " large
sums of money given them, and the
valuable presents, such as rings, scarf
pins, watches and charms.
