Leaves From the Notebook of Chronicle Keporters. The weather predictions for today are "probable showers." an for tomor row are, "fair and cooler." Mr. W. F. Soesbe of Hood River was in the city today. He expects to move - to the Willamette valley in a few days. Mrs. O. M. Boardman, of Chenowith creek died yesterday afternoon, and we understand her little baby died the day before. The local land officers here received instructions today to move the land office into the building recently occupi ed by the poBtoffice. The Epworth League of theM. E. chnrch will give an entertainment dur ing fair week, consisting of tableaux, vocal and instrumental music, and a scarf drill. Oar local cyclists are trying to get up a series of races for the fair. At present it is proposed to have a half-j mile dash, mile and three-mile races, and a five-mile handicap. About seven hundred miles of weather has passed through town since daylight. It loaded up with sand just east of town and winged its way on towards the populist camps of Nebraska. The ladies of the M. E. church will serve meals during the fair in the build ing east of the First National bank, for merly occupied by Mrs. LeBallister. Lunch will be served from 12 to 2 o'clocs and dinner from 5 to 8. All meals 25 cents each. The recorder's office this morning made a water-haul, not a victim show ing up. When the. reporter called this morning, the recorder, street commiss ioner and coroner, were having a three cornered quarrel about whose turn it . - i . 1 nr A big flock of sheep was brought over from the Mt. Adams ranges last night. They filled the street for three blocks, and seemed as numerous as the band ' the immortal Sancho Panza told of to his illustrious master at the wonderful ad venture of the fulling-mill. There were several thousand of them.. Yesterday in mentioning the fact that . the Epworth League would give an entertainment during fair week we in advertantly wrote "dance for drill." we have no desire to set the members of the league to dancing against their will hence make this correction which may be also considered an apology. On accountof the falling off of business consequent necessity of reducing ex penses, Marshal Grady has called for resignation of all of his deputies except J. D. Coleman, George Humphrey and the office deputy and bookkeeper. Mr. Grady Bays he can run the business with this force. Matt P. Murphy, the deputy far this district, goes with the balance. Street Commissioner Butts this morn ing replaced the railing on the bridge across Mill creek. His face had a sor rowful look, and in response to a sym pathetic inquiry he said: "It's a measly shame the way I am forced to work against my own interest. As street commissioner I had to fix that railing, when if I could have let it alone I might have got a job as coroner." And then he smiled. The Last Boy. The little Ryan boy who eo suddenly disappeared Wednesday night has not yet been heard from, although a dili gent search has been, kept up. The boy is said to be very steady and manly and it does not seem possible that he has taken it into his head to runaway. The fact that be put on his old clothes would rather be in favor of the runa way theory. He was last seen about 6 o'clock Wednesday evening on the bluff near his home, but the rocks have been carefully looked over without finding any traces of him. There are but three theories to account for his absence, one that he has run away, another that tramps have kidnaped him, and the third that he has gone to the river and drowned. The most . probable of the three is that he has gone to the county to some one he knows, is afraid to go home, and baB managed to' deceive those whom he is' visiting. His parents are nearly frantic and it is hoped the mystery will be speedily solved. For the Fair. Bills Allowed. The secretaries of the fair will be at Wingate Hall tomorrow at the following hours: from 10 to 12, from 2 to 4 and from 7 to 9, to receive entries for the ex hibits. All. the denartments excent that of stock will be represented and those who have entries to make should go at once. Entries close at 5 o'clock Tuesday afternoon, and to give the managers a chance the work should be started at once. Three or four of our merchants here have agreed to make ex hibits, and this example should prove contagious. With a little energy the hall can be made very attractive and thus serve as an advertisement for next year. The old proverb that what is worth doing at all is worth doing well, is evidently correct, and we hope our peo ple will not only do. but do well what they do, do. Do thou, ditto. Madame L. Dulac, 382 Morrison street, Portland, Or.,' artistic French dress maker, late of H. B. Litt, is ready to make appointments with the ladies who would like to have her come to The Dalles, to take their order, to fit them there. Latest styles and fit guaranteed. Reasonable prices.

A gentle shower which proved a bless ing in disguise in the way of settling the dust and helping the roads, fell the other day. . Farmers are busy hauling grain as the thresher's day of grace is about ended, around Dufur and vicinity at least. Mr. Thos. Harris went through with his sheep from the mountains, and E. A. Griffin also removed his to their winter quarters. Mr. Chas. Johnston has been spending the past two weeks in the berg with his brothers. Little Lewis Deitrich, son of Dr. Deitrich, is. staying in Dufur attending school. Mr. A. K. Dufur has a new addition to his mill in the shape of a chopper. Mrs. Thomas has built a nice conserv atory on the south side of her residence. Dr. J. H. Kane has his sign out ready for business, and is soon to have a new office adjoining the drugstore. The other day while Mr. Monroe Heisler was out driving with his family, the horses ran away and threw Mrs. Heisler onto the ground, dislocating her hip. Dr. Deitrich attended the injury but from last accounts she is improving but slowly.

It was a little late, but "Jimmy" says bis duties as postmaster prevented him making the trip before. The trip was made from his father's store, he asking Mrs C. to ride, on seeing the new deliv ery wagon standing by the door. He didn't think the proposition wiuld be accepted, but it was, and that so quickly that he couldn't back out. So the young couple climbed into the wagon which contained one jug of maple syrup (ap propriate for a honey moon) that was destined to render more palatable the matutinal hot cakes of the writer hereof, It isn't everybody, not even every ed itor that can have his family groceries brought home by the parties to a wed- ning, but although it seems'high toned, we wish to remark that there is nothing too rich for us. This was James A, first attempt to run a bluff on Mrs. James A. and like many another newly wedded man, ; he found it wouldn't work. When Baby -was sick, we gave her Castorla. . When she was a Child, she cried for Castoria, When she became Miss, she clung to Castoria. When she had Children, she gave them Castoria. fit a 5aerifiee. -OUR- Summer Dry Goods, Clothing, Hats.
