The engines from the wreck were side
tracked near Pease & Mays' warehouse
yesterday. They looked like they never
would recover from that Christmas jam.
Two cars loaded with sections of the
gates for the locks at the Cascades passed
down this morning, from which we judge
they were not injured in the wreck
Wednesday nigbt.
The body of Joseph W. Ready was

The mercury has been below the freez

eury takes another small drop.
Am Old Urn.
, Rev. W. C. Curtis received this morn
ing a very unique present, ' and one
which he yalues very highly. It came
from Mr.1 Norman Wilson, who is at
present in Phoenix, Arizona and is noth
ing more or les3 than a ceramic vase or
urn, made ages ago, by the Aztics or
mayhap the cliff-dwellers. It contained
a few pieces of human bones and was
found in the bottom of one of the old
canals near Phoenix. The urn is per
fect with the exception of a very, small
piece chipped from one edge, and ia with
out thec flaw or crack.

Now the days are somewhat shorter,
And the weary sun is sorter
Losing all the Tim and vigor
That it had a while ago.
And as sure as we're a poet,
We'll be out before we know it,
With a big long-handled shovel,
Digging ditches in the snow,
After a few months of silence, I will
put in a few items of our berg as a part
ing reminder of the old year.
The farmers are busy preparing for
the winter, hauling hay and s traw, put
ting the farm implements under shelter,
etc. No very great amount of fall plow
ing has been done around Dufur and
vicinity, on account of the frozen condi
tion of the ground ; but as soon as al
lowable the farmers will make up for
lost time.
The weather of late has been damp
and threatening, while most of Monday
there was a heavy fog, which was cold
and penetrating. Good sleighing
around Nansene and Tygh Ridge, while
Dufur is enjoying a "black Christmas."
Dr. Kane was called away by a tele
gram from California, summoning bim
to the bed of a sick brother.
Mrs. Sunderland has returned to
Portland.
Miss Belle Gibson has gone to her
home in Sherman county to spend the
holidays with her folks.
David Miller and Jas. Kennedy are

and friends at Wamic.

bis relatives here.
Miss Annie Dufur, who has been the
guest of Mrs. Mollie Dufur of The Dalles,
has just returned.
Grandpa Dufur, who has been very
ill, is now around again, we are pleased
to note. It is a hard matter for one of
his energy and ambition to be kept in
doors for any great length of time.
New Year's night there will be given
a grand masquerade ball, at which ap
propriate prizes will be giyen to the two
best gentlemen and lady characters.

berg somewhat. .
The Methodist church are holding
protracted meetings, with the aid of
Rev. Brian.
Christmas eve the ladies of the W. C.
T. IT. gave a Christmas tree at the M. E.
church, which was a grand success.
They spared no pains to make the even
ing an enjoyable one to both young and
old. The church was beautifully decor
ated with evergreens and appropriate
mottoes and emblems of the occasion,
while a large tree was tastefully and
plentifully decorated with the Christmas
offerings, and the myriads of lights that
danced and twinkled amongst the laden
boughs.' ' A large crowd filled the church
to overflowing;' A short but well chosen
program preceeded the usual Cnristmap
exercises. ' The choir gave some ex
cellent music, nnder the supervision of

in mnsicand thoroughly understands his
business as the people of Dufur well
know. Rev. Barnhart gave a few fitting
remarks. Master William Gulliford re
cited "Boys Are Wanted," in a clear,
loud voice for one so young. Ralph Can
trell and Garfield Easten recited their
declamations with credit for boys of their
ages. One of the best things of the even
ing was a recitation by Theresa Mark-
ham, entitled "What the Bells Said at
Christmas," which was very effectively
rendered and well appreciated by the
audience, after which a tinkling of bells
told that old Santa was at the door, and
caused a stir and a craning of necks
among the juvenile portion of the
audience. Every child was made happy
by some gift bestowed by the wonderful
Santa Claus, while those too old to feel
the mystical charm of his' presence,
sighed,
Turn backward, turn backward,
O, time in your flight,
MHke me a child again,
Just for tonight.
After the distribution of the gifts, the
crowd dispersed with their hearts full of
cheer and a feeling of "peace on earth,
good will to men."
Christmas night a dance was given at
the I. O. O. F. hall, at which a goodly
crowd was in attendance and all enjoyed
the evening.
