Union shipped three carloads of pota toes to the East last week. This crop is almost a failure in those states unvisited by the drouth. The crop -is also short on this coast, but still we have spuds to spare. The matter of freight, however, shuts us off from the market. Rev. O. D. Taylor received a 'letter Saturday from a lady named Games of Portland, stating that two little orphan girls, one aged 6 years and the other 9, had been left in her charge by the death of their parents ; that they are of an ex cellent family, and is desirous of finding homes for them. Full particulars as to the children can be obtained by calling on Mr. Taylor. Rockland Boy, whose leg was injured in the races last week, was brought down from the fair grounds yesterday morning on a dray. He is a remarkably sensible animal, and made no trouble, allowing himself to be led onto the dray, and standing patiently until his destina tion was reached. Mr. Mclnerny has hopes of his complete recovery ; hopes that we hope will be gratified. An attempt was madn to rob the Hills boro bank Monday night. President Shute, after closing the vault at night, 8 tar ted home on his bicycle but was stopped by four masked men, who tied his bands and' compelled him to give them the combination of the vault. He told them it was a time lock but they would not believe him until they went to the bank and proved his assertions true.

Do you want The Chronicle and San Francisco Examiner for a year? If so send us $2.25 and you can have them, 156 papers for $2.25 or less than a cent and a half a pioce. If you would rather have the New York World, we will send you that and the Semi-Weekly Chron icle one year for $2.25. The World is also a semi-weekly so you will get 208 papers for $2.25. We have made arrangements with the San Francisco Examiner to furnish it in connection with The Chronicle. - Hav ing a clubbing rate with the Oregonian and N. Y. Tribune for our republican patrons, we have made this arrangement for the accommodation of the democratic members . of The Chronicle family. Both papers, the Weekly Examiner and Semi-Weekly Chronicle will be fnr- nished for one year for $2.25, cash in ad vance. Last evening after the crowd which attended the Wizard Oil concert had dispersed, a number of joung people laid siege to the hall, and a very pleas ant impromptu party was given com plimentary to Miss Shulthis, who is visiting in the city. With such music as Prof. Birgfeld, accompanied by Mr. Burchstorf on the violin, can discourse, and a merry party, bent on making the most of the opportunity for fun, it could not fail to be a success. A Good Flan. The new plan for worrying train rob bers devised by the Wells-Fargo express company, has been put in operation upon the through trains between ' San Francisco and Portland. The burglar proof safes in the express cars are fitted with detachable knobs for the combina tion locks and the . express messengers who travel in the cars are unable to open the safes, not being furnished with the knobs or the combinations.- Local agents of the company at various stopping places on the road have the combination and turning knobs and are charged with the duty of opening and closing the safes, from which are taken the valuable packages billed to the place of opening and for places intermediate between that place and the next place where an agent has the combination.'- On the San Francisco-Portland trains the safes are opened only at four places between the terminals Sacramento, Redding, Ash' land and Roseburg. The Kins' Daughters. The King's Daughters have many calls made on them for assistance by those who are worthy and needy. They can find use for clothing of all kinds, and suggest that those who have gaiments of any kind which they will no longer use give them to the poor, through the direction of the society. Garments which are ' discarded and will no longer be used by the owners, can be made to do great good, and this is especially so now that winter is coming on. All offer ings sent to Mrs. Brooks, Mrs. Harris or Mrs. Willerton wil be turned over to the society by them. Now do not think. this is meant for someone else, but look into your closets and see what you have that will be of use to the society in their good work. . - ' . . Help Wanted.

Fraser Lodge, No. 16, Independent Order of Good Templars, had a very in teresting meeting last Saturday evening, with quite a number of members present ; notwithstanding the busy season, and the great distance some of our members come we have a good attendance at each meeting. Last quarter the average at tendance was thirty-one. - The lodge is still increasing in membership, there be ing three propositions last meeting and two the meeting before. We have now membership of sixty-five in good standing. The lodge gave several entertainments last winter and will give another Oct. 27th, which will be an apron and pencil social. The ladies are to bring aprons, not hemmed, with needles and thread, the gentlemen lead pencils, not sharp ened. The ladies will sharpen the pen cils and the gentlemen will hem the aprons. Those doing the neatest work will be rewarded with a prize. All are invited. - Eraser lodge meets on the first and third Saturday of each month, at the 3-Mile schoolhouse, about four miles south of town. You will hear more of the social later on. Z. The Express Matter. The express robbery continues to be a topic of absorbing interest, and all kinds of surmises, wild and mayhap other wise, are made concerning the probable, possible, or impossible parties who might, or could be connected with it. Those who think that it was local talent that performed the work, are met with the question, "Where did the sharpened drill come from." If it was made here it was made by a mechanic, for the workmanship is good ; but if made here, the man who made it would soon iden tify it. On the other hand, if the rob bery was executed by strangers, how could they get away with the swag. The detectives are of course saying nothing, so what theories they may have found out, if anything, are un known. All that is definite is that the money is gone, and that whoever took it made an excellent job, leaving no sign by which a cine can be obtained. Notice. The following notice has been handed us for publication : "Rev. Horn returned from a mission ary trip to High Prairie, White Salmon, Trout Lake, Camas Prairie and Hood River. He speaks of having good suc cess, holding services in German and English.
