Leaves From tne Notebook of Chronicle Reporters. E. B. McFarland is in the city. invited to attend the revival at tne M. Hi. church every :d vea-l Mr, All are meetings evening. The Guild of St. Paul's church will meet tomorrow (Thursday) afternoon, tbe-ivestry of the church at 2 :30. i Government work was resumed yes terday at Cascade Locks, and 450 men were pat to work. This will be wel come news to the people in the interior, who devoutly hope for the completion , of the locks. aarles Fowler was hurt worse than we reported yesterday. It seems that his leg was broken in two places, and his hip dislocated. Besides this, the cow kicked him on the head, making a bad cut. Mr. Ryan, whose leg was broken while coasting Monday, had his injuries at tended to by Dr. Logan, and is made as comfortable 'as possible. He ' will re main here instead of going to the hospi tal at Portland. Yesterday , one , deed was filed for record, it being that of John E. Johnson and wife ' to Horace Knight, lots G and H, block 21, Fort Dalles Military Addi tion to Dalles City; $600.

The literary society will give an open meeting some time next month, proba bly near Washington's birthday, which will be one of ' the events of the year. One of the large churches will be secured and an attractive- program be prepared. The address of the evening will be de livered by a prominent citizen of The Dalles, while music and literary exer cises by members of the society will fill out the balance of the evening. - Lhe Regulator will look like a new boat when she leaves the wharf again to make regular trips. The interior cabins have been painted throughout and make a vast improvement. Other repairs will be made to the lower deck and macbin ery. People along the river will gladly welcome the Bound of the Regulator's whistle as it reverberates between the mountains that line the Columbia. The Taine club was entertained Mon day evening by Mrs. C. J. Crandall. A full attendance was present and the evening very pleasantly spent. The author for discussion was Sir Walter Scott and the members read "The Lady of the Lake." After the the reading was through music occupied the rest of the evening followed by a sumptuous lunch. ' The Taine class is yery popular and the literary work proves very interesting to the members. The young people of the Congrega tional church entertained their friends last evening in a very hospitable man' ner at the home of Mr. B. S. Hunting' ton. The rooms were crowded with friends of the church, and laughter and merriment held sway till a late hour, The music by the quartette was very much enjoyed. A feature of the evening was the serving of hot "flapjacks," delicately cooked and very palatable Games and ' conversation caused the evening to pass very pleasantly. A neat sum was realized towards paying the pastor's salary. Yesterday evening tjie wind suddenly began to pour up the canyon, and in less than no time the snow began to melt, It could hardly be called a Chinook wind, not having the balmly and spring like warmth of that genial breeze, and besides it seemed to come from the orthwest. It kept up its gait all night, "'uuu" unucinioo giv ing notice of its presence. The snow, while melting, has not disappeared as it would before a genuine Chinook, but the day has been bright, full of sun shine, and beautiful. The coasting is ruined for the present, though there is ice enough left on track if it should turn colder, to again make it good. No Material Chance in tne Situation Today. The Tittell Sisters Are Coming. Manager - Birgield,' of the Baldwin Opera House, received word today that the Tittell Sisters, whose inability to fulfill their engagement this week caused such regret, will appear " iu "The Dalles next Monday and ' Tuesday" nights, They were unavoidably detained on this laBt occasion. All tickets previously bought will be good for these nights, There will doubtless be a large crowd present, so those intending to go had better obtain seats early.

Williams loses five from his vote of yesterday, while Lowell gains one. The two votes for Gatch were probably cast for Claude Gatch, the present mayor of Salem, and son of Prdf. T. M. Gatch, formerly principal of the Wasco Independent Academy in this city. The vote in de tail is: Dolph 42, Hare 10, Weather- ford 8, Hermann 10, Williams 5, Lord 5. Moore 1, Lowell 4, Barkley 1, Gatch 2, Cooper, who yesterday Toted for George H. Williams, today cast his vote for Mr, Dolph, while Davis changed from Dolph to Lowell. - - ; The perplexity shows no sign of clear mg, and neither .Dolph nor any other man has a better show of election than last week '- : - ;: ' " '' ' ' 1 A Small Museum. v . Our jeweler, Mr. Garretson, is accum mating a regular museum of curiosities in his show window. To his original Arizona fruit exhibit, consisting of cen tipedes, snakes, tarantulas, scorpions and other delicacies of the desert, he re cently added a two-headed lamb, and day before yesterday a fine collection of fossils. The latter were obtained from Justice L. S. Davis, who is an enthusias tic student of geology, and takes great interest in these fossilized remains of prehistoric animals. Their story is told, the story of the . time ere Adam was created, by the bones that, covered countless ages ago, are now ' unearthed to tell alone the brief tale of that long ago. The vegetation, too, has left in the sedimentary rocks of the John Day re gion, and tell us that the climate at that time was ' tropical. The leaves of the cocoa tree and the fig : are found mixed with those of the alder and the dak ; and with the bones of the horse the little eo hippers, that was only as large as an average-sized dog, are found those of the sabre-tooth tiger, an ' immense fellow with tushes six inches long, the tapir the camel, and a general assortment of beasts known to modern days, as well as some the fossils of which are found no where except in the John Day beds The state of Oregon should take some steps towards creating a museum where the rare and valuable products of the FoBsii beds could be preserved. I Caution to Telephone Purchasers. The .Northern I'aciac Kailway com' pany uses a large number of private tele' phones at various places throughout the length' of its "roads, which' have been heretofore leased from the Bell telephone company, through' whose territory the road runs A few months ago, by cir cular letter froni headquarters, the Bell telephones, were ordered out and were replaced ' by '"infringing'' telephones' of other manufacturers. ' ? - ' The change,' in its usual course, came the attention of the counsel of the company, who decided that tne guar antees of the manufacturers were no pro tection, and it was hazardous to subject the Northern Pacific railway company to later litigation and the payment of large damages, so last week a circular was re ceived by all offices discontinuing the in fringing instruments, and the Bell tele phone have been ordered replaced. Any telephone set up m complete working order, embodies a dozen or more patents depending upon each other for a satisfactory and working whole, and therefore the expiration of one or two of these patents does not open to free us a complete or even a workable telephone.
