Leaves From the Notebook of Chronicle Reporters. It is E. J. Collins, Son & Co. now. Union Whist Club will be postponed lor one weak, on account of the ball. There was a light rain last night, just enough to make the groand sticky. Miss Alma Schmidt and Mr. Long will assist Mr. York in furnishing the music for the Smith Bros.' dances. Are you going to the masquerade? Why of course, wouldn't miss being there to guess who is who, not for any thing. A Mr. Frazier of Pendleton has a pac ing horse known as Jap, with a record of 2.12. Salisbury is trying to buy him, but it takes $5,000 to do it. The steamer Dalles City did not con nect with the Regulator yesterday as ex pected. The reason was the breaking of a hog-chain just as she was ready to start. Mr. Eugene Gordon wishes to sell his household furniture, carpets, cooking utensils, etc. This is a rare opportunity to secure a bargain. Inquire at Pease & Maya. Mr. J. P. Gilhousen leaves tomorrow morning for Kahoka, Missouri, and will go by the Southern Pacific route. He expects 10 oe away tor live or six months. Justice Davis has about thirty cases on his docket, mostly suits for the col lection of notes given for insurance. He ought to be able to job-lot the whole 'business in one suit. The literary society will meet tomor . row evening at 7 :30 in the Congrega tional church. Members will please notice the hour of meeting, and en deavor to be present promptly at 7 :30. The East Oregonian says "that the carpenters are adding much to the ap pearance of Mr. Lowell's residence in Pendleton." Evidently he does not take much stock in the action of the caucus bolters. Those who attended the social given by the young people of the Congrega tional society t the home of W. S. Myers last night were not in the least disappointed in the pleasure afforded them. Everyone joined heartily in the games, as well as in the lunch, and on departing expressed a desire to attend many of the same nature. There is going to be a big crowd at the masquerade tomorrow night, and there are going to be more maskers and finer costumes than ever seen on a like occasion in this city. There is going to be fun, and you want to be there to see it. The contract of the Day Bros, expires on tne 1st or March, but as it provides that in case of high water the time shall be extended, the talk of the contract be ing forfeited is all foolishness. The high water was-certainly here last summer, enough at least td comply with that pro vision of the contract. The local items have reached a dead lock, and the discouraged reporter can't jar one loose from either side. When gentle spring shall come, and the roads get good, it may be possible to run one or two good items down occasion ally, but just now they are an unknown quantity, and hard to catch. There is some talk of the legislature compromising on Governor Moody for senator at the last moment if the anti Dolphites remain firm.' This latter part of the program is quite certain, and if Mr. Moody's chances of election are as good as the chances of the bolters stand ing firm, he will be the next senator. The lower house of the California leg islature has passed a bill prohibiting the wearing of hats or bonnets in public places of amusement. Both houses have passed the bill prohibiting the manufacture, sale or distribution of cigarettes. This latter bill passed the senate by a unanimous vote, and the house by a vote of 54 to 12. Senator Smith's bill providing for reg ulating the railway traffic between this point and Celilo was the special order in the senate for this morning at 10:45. This bill ought to pass, but it is not at all likely that it can escape both Scylla and Chary bdis. If it passes one house, the other will kill it, and indeed there is some doubt as to its conptita Mortality. Mr. N. Harris has a couple of very at tractive little figures in his corner win dow. One is a gay little danseuse, standing daintily on one toe, and kick ing her robe a la Cerito, just enough to expose the point of a pretty little foot and the other a gentleman from Africa an acute brunette, dressed in black tiehts and picking a banjo. These are very pretty figures, but the most at tractive figures about Harris' store are very small ones that indicate his prices Examine both and see. The legislature did an immense amount work yesterday. Under the rules each member was allowed to call up one bill and put it upon its final passage. Quite a number were passed, but a few were unceremoniously squelched. Among the latter was the bill providing for holding a constitutional convention, Lyle's bill for the creation of Sutton county was another measure that failed to get through. McGreer's bill fixing a bounty for destroying wild animals, died without the bounty. Bancroft's bill per mitting divorce where either party was insane, was lost. The vote at Salem today showed a prophetic change, Dolph losing two votes which went to Williams, and Williams losing one which went to Waldo. Speaker Moores and Senator Hobson were the members who abandoned Dolph. The vote was as follows : Dolph 39, Hare 10, McAllister 1, Williams 30, Waldo 2, Raley 6, absent 2. Tomorrow being the last day of the session it is probable some changes may be made, of which those of today are but an indication. When Baby was sick-, we gave her Castoria.

A militia regiment in the north of Ire land usually drilled in a level field close to the side of a river. One day the drill sergeant, who was given to blustering, and was by no means choice in his re marks to the men, met a young recruit coming late to drill. "You're late again," roared the sergeant. "Go down to the river and fall in!" "Oh, no," said the recruit; "I wish you to under stand that I did not enlist in the Coldc stream Guards." Dolph looses Two. Real Estate Transactions.

Hauling Freight. - Six teams left here yesterday morning for Corvallis, taking down a car load of potatoes for Hall & Son, which will be shipped to San Francisco by way of Ya quina. Chas Croner is in charge ot the teams. They will load back with sugar for the same parties. It is found to be quite a little cheaper to haul freight from Corvallis here by teams, even at this time of year, than to ship by rail.
