BRIEF MENTION,
leaiei From the Notebook of Chronicle
Reporters.
No show tonight.
Jos. T. Peters & Co., have cord wood,
which is desirable in all respects and
respectfully solicit your orders.
Charley Fowler, aged about 8 years,
met with an accident while coasting this
afternoon, resulting in a broken leg.
At a special meeting of the taxpayers
of the school district held Saturday
afternoon, a special tax of 6 mills was
voted. This will raise about $7,700.
The thermometers registered 4 above
zero at some points in town this morn
ing, though the old reliable government
instrument at Mr. Brooks' recorded
only 8 above. The latter is probably
correct.
Mr. Birgfeld has received a telegram
from "W. S. Ford, manager of the Tittle
theatrical troupe, saying that owing to
the sickness of Miss Tittle, the dates of
the company's showing here would, have
to be changed. It is believed that Miss
Tittell's sickness is not serious, and that
the postponement will not be for long.
Revival meetings will be conducted at
the M. E. church during the week, to
' which all are invited. Quite an interest
is already manifested. Mr. Wood uses
his own song books, and the singing is
good, twenty minutes being devoted to
eong service every evening. The young
people are especially invited to attend.
Mr. H. C. Paige is writing the story
of the stage robbery on the Canyon City
road in 1872, and the arrest, trial, con
viction, and final release of Tompkins
and three other innocent men, and the
tale is being published in the Grant
County News. It is very interesting
matter.
The young people of the Congrega
tional society will entertain their friends
" at the home of Mr. B. S. Huntington
" tomorrow (Tuesday) evening. The
- evening will no doubt be a pleasant one
-as something novel will be introduced
No friends of the society should miss
the pleasure in store for them.
Preparations were made Saturday and
yesterday at Hood River by the Lom
bard Ice Co. for filling their big ice
" houses. And. Winans went down from
Wouldn't you rather have one. now?
Well,
PEASE
here this morning to take charge of the
work. Mr. W. R. Winans tells us the
ice is about a foot thick and of fairly
good quality. If the weather permits,
within the next ten days 15,000 tons will
be stored at that point.
The sleighing and coasting were never
better, and although we have been inr
dulging in those sport for nearly a
month, they seem to lose none of their
attraction. The coasting on Union
street is exceptionally line, the track be
ing like glass and the speed made is
astonishing. It is to be hoped that no
serious accident will occur to mar the
pleasure, yet" even with the greatest of
care such is likely to happen. ,
The Gesang Vereln.
; Saturday evening the members of the
Gesang Verein, to the number of about
sixty, took advantage of the splendid
sleighing to make a visit to Mr. Frank
Seufert's. There was an abundance of
music, of course, which slopped over on
the way out and woke the echoes from
the bluffs across the river. Arriving at
their destination, Mr. and Mrs. Seufert
proceeded to make the evening interest
ing for their visitors. A large hall near
the house had been cleared out for the
occasion and dancing was the first thing
in order, followed by a feast and more
dancing. About 2 o'clock a portion of
the merry makers came home, the bal
ance staying until nearly 4 o'clock.
Everybody enjoyed themselves of course,
for they couldn't do otherwise while Mr.
and Mrs. Frank Seufert had them in
charge.

The farmers in that section of Marion
county just north of Sublimity have
been experiencing a considerable amount
of trouble and loss during the past two
weeks by the visitation of sheep-killing
dogs. A woolgrower of that vicinity
says 99 sheep have been killed by ca
nines quite recently.
John Flynn killed a deer with a stick
near Glen, Lincoln county, last week
His attention was attracted by the bark
ing of dogs, and upon investigation he
found the animal was "treed" in a
stream. Having no weapon he attacked
the deer with a stick.

DOLPH HAS 42.
Bat is Unable to Get Enough, to Make a
Majority.
It was generally expected that the
senatorial fight would be settled in Port
land yesterday ; that all the influence
possible, would be brought to bear on
the bolters to bring them back to a rec
ognition . of the caucus nominee. T
vote today shows that if any influence
was brought to bear, that influence was
powerless to add to Dolph's strength.
The vote was practically nnchanged from
that of Saturday and as far as Dolph was
concerned remained exactly the same.
It was as follows : Dolph 42, Hermann
9, Moore 3, Hare 10, Lord 4, Weather
ford 8, Williams 8, Lowell 2, Barkeley 2.
Mr. Templeton, who woule have voted
for Dolph, was paired with Mr. Scott,
who was sick, and who would have voted
against him. The situation now seems
to be that no argument can be reached
as far as Mr. Dolph is concerned..
The Pinnacle of Woe.
Receiver Biggs, of the land office, be
ing a good democrat, is rather enjoying
the republican fight in the legislature
and never misses an opportunity to give
some of his republican friends a dig. A
few days ago when a petition was being
circulated here urging Representative
Coon to vote for Dolph, Mr. Biggs .told
the following story as being appropriate
to the occasion and peculiarly fitting to
those who were circulating the petition
'When I used to live down on the
banks of the' Missouri," said he, "there
was a family living near that were typ
ical Missourians. One winter a sudden
cold snap caused the river to freeze over,
and at the same time the head of this
family to discover that there was no fire
wood around the house. So, accom
panied ly his two boys, he went across
a cnannei of tne river to an island, as
being the most accessible place from
which the woodpile could be replenished
Arriving there they cut down a tree,
which proved to be hollow, and which a
coon had located as a hybernating place.
The boys captured the coon, and tied
him securely, intending of course to
take him home. In chopping another
tree, a limb struck one of the boys,
breaking one of his legs. Tne old man
leaving the boys, started back across the
river to get a neighbor to help get the
boy home, but getting too near an air
hole the ice broke and the old man was
drowned, before the sons' eyes. The un
hurt boy, fixing his brother as comforta
ble as possible, started for home to get
help, but put a rope around the coon's
neck and took him along. The coon not
being broke to ' lead, of course pulled
back. When near the shore a neighbor
came down seeing the boy was in
trouble of some kind, and inquired con
cerning it. The boy blurted out
'Yon see while we was chopping wood, a
tree fell on Bill and broke his leg. Dad
he started to your house to git help and
fell through the ice and got drownded
and (giving the rope a yank) this hyar

DIRECTIONS.
Use, as a general thing, jast on top of
stove. If great heat is required, u
without the Btove lid.
No stirring required for oat meal, milk,
rice, custards, blanch mange, jellies,
butters, catsups, apple sauce, etc., etc.
In fact, nothing will burn on it. Coffee
will not boil over if the pot is on the
mat; bread toasts nicely on it. Trv it
and be convinced. For the nursery.
there is nothing equal to heat the milk
and food for the baby. If a grate fire,
lay the mat on the open fire. If the
mat becomes eoiied, do not wash or
ecrape, but turn the Boiled part next to
fire, and barn until clean.
