Mr James B. Crossen has purchased the Dehm property on Third street near the Gates building and is having it re paired. A force of men are engaged in raising it, and from the amount of mor tar and brick around it looks as though the old house would be replaced by a new one, and a brick at that. Wm. Buskirk, akministrator of the estate of Elmer E. Griffin, a former resident of Hood River, but now in the east and insane ; Saturday sold a quarter section of timber land in Hood River belonging to the estate, to Lucas Henry. The property was mortgaged and bought by the mortgagee. The windows of the city council chambers have been washed. 'We know that our reputation for truth and veracity is liable to suffer from making this apparently rash statement but it is true just the same. The deed is placed at the door of Street Commissioner Butts, but that seems as great a wonder as the original story. A writer in Farm and Home tells how he keeps potatoes : Dig thorn after the first light fiost and pile them in a round heap ; . stack corn stalks around them four inches thick, then cover about four inches with dirt and put a dry shelter over them; never put over thirty bushels in a hill, and I think If you will follow my plan you will keep potatoes as long as I have. - Mr. Peter Fernell last Sunday rode his horee over the hill from Sandoz's place on Mill creek to his own on Chenowith creek, carrying some tools behind the saddle. These slipped frightening the horse which threw Mr. Fernell. His foot hung in the stirrup and as the horse dragged him it also stepped on his right hand tearing' the first joint off the index finger. . Fortunately his foot came out of the stirrup before he had been dragged far, else bad this article been an obituary. When Baby was sick, we gan her Oastoria. .

An Oregonian reporter describes a case of honors being even as follows : "The profession of dog-catcher is not exempt from trouble, and even danger. The dog has been styled the truest friend of marr, and most men are true friends of their dogs, but they are not to" be mentioned in this respect in the same day with the women. A bear robbed of her cubs is not more dangerous than a woman when the dog-catcher attempts to capture her dog. Away up First street, a day or two since, a dog-catcher started in to lasso a dog. The woman who owned the dog rushed out to its defense. A man was ' unloading a cartload of refuse near by, and the dog sought refuge under the.. cart. The catcher was stooping to spy the dog when the woman came up behind him and gave him a vigorous push; sending him head first into the garbage heap. She then whistled up her dog, '. and .then re trenched in good oraer to a place of safety. The next day the catcher sneaked around, thinking to get the dog. ' He found the animal on the street and chased after him. The woman espied him and rushed out after him, but her foot -slipped on the polished rails of Mr. Holladay's justly celebrated street railway and she fell full length in the muddy street. The impolite dog-catcher laughed so heartily that he quit chasing the dog, and the woman, calling her pet, took him in her arms and marched off covered with mud and glory. It Winked Oat. Recently an attorney wrote to County Clerk Kelsay, desiring to know which was the leading democratic paper of The Dalles. The letter was turned over to A. G. Johnson, deputy, to reply, and we quote a small portion of the answer, as showing the present condition of demo cratic newspapers in The Dalles. Mr. Johnson said : "There was a democratic paper pub lished here in days gone by, but the 'change' it labored so hard for, brought not a harvest of plenty, and it met the fate of ' the Frenchman's whisky, it lasted soon. Like many another in dustry under the new 'conditions that confront us' it withered and died. The old plant, has been moved across the river, and the faithful type that whooped it up for democracy's uncrowned king, Grover the First, and tariff reform, is now doing good service in expounding republican principles': to the political sinner's of the' evergreen state. Pioneer Ball. We acknowledge the receipt of an in vitation to attend a pioneer ball at the Cascade Locks, Saturday evening next. As the 'name of Hon. H. A. Leavens heads the list' of the ' committee no further assurance need be made that it will be a success. A pioneer supper will also be served and among the delicacies to be served are filet of bear a la muck-a-muck, wapatoes with the harness on, venison,' coon, jack rabbit 'and huckle berry sauce.'." We know the boys will have a good time, but as we can't be there what good is that going to dons. . Notice. .
