Leaves From the Notebook of Chronicle Reporters. HER PECULIARITIES. How doth the little blushing maid Emplov each Bhining hour! Doth she' in sober thought arrayed, Learn knowledge that is power? Say, doth she mend her father's socks, And cook his evening meal? And doth she make her own sweet. frocks, With adolescent zeal? Not much ; not much. She knows it all ; She doth not need to learn. She thinks of naught but rout or ball, And which youth will be her'n. She hustles for a diamond ring; She cares not for her dad. She doeB not make him anything Except she makes him mad. Tom Hall. Saner kraut at W, A. Kirby's. tf Judge Bradsbaw yesterday afternoon fixed Mr. Broadbent's bonds at $600. The weather indications for tomorrow are rain or snow and slightly warmer. Rev. W. H. Shearman will preach at the Christian church tonight at 7 -.30 p m. Elder J. W Jenkins will preach at Dnfar Saturday evening, Dec. 28th, and Sunday .morning and evening. The attorneys for Otis Savage will argue a motion for a new trial before Judge Bradshaw tomorrow morning. It is probable sentence' will be paesed at that time. David Fay, a mill employe at Tacoma, was bo badly ecalded Sunday that he died from h.is injuries yesterday. He was cleaning out the boiler when the engineer turned the steam on. Warden J. H. Codlentz, of the Walla Walla penitentiary, has been requested by the directors to resign. He refuses and cannot be ousted until the legislature meets. Political disagreements are the cause of the trouble. Floyd Harmon has sold his pet bear. and it will be taken to Portland to orna- II ment the reception room of a butcher 1 shop. This animal has been of inestim able value to The Chronicle, furnishing us several choice items, and we regret exceedingly his departure. The first meeting of the young people's whist club was held last evening at Schanno's hall, entertained by Miss Story. The club is composed of twenty - couples, and as the hall has a fine floor for dancing, which will no doubt occupy part of the evening, the club will of course be a source of great enjoyment to its members. ' Mr. Brooks informs us that the report from the weather bureau this afternoon shows that the snow storm which began shortly after noon, is general over the Northwest. Snow began falling in Port land about 9 o'clock this morning. The wind is from the east, velocity about 10 miles, but the clouds are from the west. At Baker City the thermometer is stand ing at 26 at 2 o'clock. Mr. Robert Mays, who came in from the Bake Oven neighborhood, reports a disease among the cattle, which for lack of Eome better name the stockmen call "blind staggers." Quite a number of cattle have died from it, and this espec ially in the Tygh Ridge country. . Feed is plenty and all stockmen are prepared to 6tand a bard winter. Quite a number of immigrants arrived here last night and are desirous of lo cating. Some of them have . already gone into- the country. Among them is Mr. Hardin and family ccnsisting of his wife and nine children, and his chil dren's maternal grandmother. Mr. Hardin came here from Alabama and is anxious to rent a farm for a vear. The ladies of the Aid Society will give a concert before Christmas, probably the 21, sin the Congregational church. A prominent feature will be Mrs. Con don's class of "Dayspri.ntrs, and Sun beams". Miss Bnrke of Oakland, Cal.. is giving them special instruction with reference to this event. Other details of the program will be mentioned later. Although there has been on two dif ferent occasion a fall of a few straggling flakes of snow, today is the first of the season when it can properly be said that "it snowed." About 1 o'clock the fleecv flakes of the "beautiful," as large as a monkey's paw, began to fall, the clonds letting go all at once, and sending down as . pretty a lot of Mother Goose's feathers as one wonld care to see. - The Orchestra Union gives its usual dance at the opera house tomorrow night. Dancing commences, at 8:30. The prizes to be given for this month are: Ladies, half dozen pairs' of kid gloves; gentlemen, pair dancing shoes. These ; prizes are distributed as follows: On entering the hall a coupon will be given each lady and gentleman. Cor responding numbers are placed in a box and at the end of the month the first ticket out is the winner. The 400th Anniversary.

When she was a Child, she cried for Castoria. When she became Hiss, she clung to Castoria, When she had Children, she gave them nntstM The Markets. The wheat market is unchanged. though apparently a trifle stronger. Bradstreets for Dec, 1st, has the following: A stimulating influence of a purely statistical nature is the decrease of 2,008,000 bushels of wheat in the quan- ty afloat for and in store in Europe last ek, thus nearly, though not quite, OMercomincr the increase nf 2 12S 000 biBhels of wheat available in the United States and Candada last week. "F.-rnnrtn wheat (and flour as wheat), both asts, amount to 2,667,000 bushels this week against 3,312,000 bushels last week, 2,400,000 . bushels in . the week one. year ago, 4,533,000 bushels in the last week of November of 1892, and as compared with 5.662,000 bushels in that week in 1891. Data presented by Bradstreet's point to the United States having exported about 65,000,000 bushels of wheat (flour in cluded), since June 30th, and to our haying 85,000,000 bushels available for export during the next seven months, notwithstanding the alleged excessive home demand this year. For the week ending December 1st, the available supplies of wheat in the United States and Canada east of the Rocky mountains, wheat increase 898, 000 bushels; west of the Rocky mount ains, wheat decrease, 297,000 bushels; afloat for and in Europe, wheat increase 424,000 bushels ; increases of wheat of note were in Chicago private elevators and western interior elevators." The vegetable market is well supplied with everything belbnging to the Beason, and at prices that permit their being used by all. We noticed quite a lot of nice pop corn brought in Saturday that was sold at 5 cents per pound for the lot. There are no material changes in prices since last week. May Man Conduct His Business He Pleases? As A great many valuable lessons will be learned from the Chicago strike. While Btudying its phases, its origin, its course and its close, two very far-reaching ethical-economic questions have been constantly in my mind. These are 1. Shall a man conduct his own business in his own way? 2. Shall the savings of labor be con sidered a reserve from which labor must draw, in order to enable it to subsist during periods of depression or of adver sity, while the reserve of capital is kept practically intact under like circum stances, or, if drawn upon at all, in less measure than labor draws on its savings? Society baa long since answered these questions in some important particulars'. It says to the property-owner, the man ufacturer: "You. must not so conduct your business as to injure the property of your neighbor, nor must you conduct your business in such a way as to injure the health of your neighbor. No. prop erty owner can do anything that will interfere -with the rights and privileges of his neighbor, whether these rights and privileges come : under the .head oi -ngnt io ?rreeaom rrom injury to property, or . the privilege of . liv ing without damage to healthJ" But the question which is much more far- reaching, and which will inevitably be answered by society, relates to-condi tion of men rather than to their material surroundings and this question is Shall a man or a corporation . who does not, or is not able to, conduct his or its affairs so as to avoid public disturb ance, obstruction of trade, loss of wages, or the lowering of the standard of living, be free from the interference of society?" Forum. Sorry That She Spoke. "It is curious how people ran make mistakes. A short time ago a young lady, not very many miles from Eugene, was troubled with a boil about three: fourths of an inch .above the elbow of ber knee. It grew so bad that she thought it neceseary to call a doctor, but as the family doctor was a single man she shuddered at the thought of showing the boil to him. The mother suggested one of "the other resident phy sicians, who were all old married 'men, but the father kicked. He said it would ruke the young doctor mad. The young lady saw a way out of the diffi- cultv." She reported that one of those traveling doctors -who had been coming to town regularly for aklong time was in town, and she saw him pass with his medicine case' that afternoon. It was agreed that they would watch for the specialist and call him in. A sharp lookout was kept, and suie enough along he came. He was called in and the young lady very modestly exhibited her.boil. The stranger, rather curiously for a doctor, looked at it and remarked : "Well, that's too bad." "Well, doctor, what shall I do?" The stranger tum bled. He smiled a smile and replied : "Get a doctor; I'm a piano tuner.' Cottage Grove Leader. . AdTertlsed Letters.

The city marshal had one indiscreet gentleman in tow this morning, and allowed him to exercise himself at the city woodpile, for a little while, having him . leave his coat in the office in the meanwhile. . Being left to himself for a few moments the gentleman said nothing, neither did he saw wood, but looking at the case .from all sides he concluded he preferred the wild freedom of the brake beam, and ' the : free air of : the - Wasco mountains to - the ignoble contact of the bucksaw ; and the home comforts of the City jail. . Hence scorning the city's hos pitality, turning in loathing from the woodpile, he dropped a tear or two as he thought . how the good marshal's heart would bleed at his breech of faith, and fled. . From the whenceness of the preserit into the misty wherefore of the future he slipped and was lost.- And he never returned. - " Meesh-a-lavis sliuma-lapaltic ka apachlapoo ta isli kadoo." ;: FIRST Grand las (mm Ball, -TO BE GIVEN BY- TRIBE, NO. 16, I. 0.
