A bay team belonging to the Winans Bros, and engaged in hauling a wagon loaded with lumber, took it into their heads this morning to take a run. They started from some place in the East End and came down Second street as though Jehu himself was urging them. Just in front of Mays & Crowe's something de flected them from their course and un like the populists, they left the middle of the road. The lumber had, most of it, been disposed of regardless of cost, on the way down, and the outfit was run- running in ballast. When their course was changed they were unable to make the circle and turn up Federal street, so they compromised by running into the dead wall of the Max Vogt building, and coming to a full stop. The damage was light. Kndersby Items. We are having some rain the last few days. The roads are quite slippery. Farmers are all busy plowing and sowing.

Advertise in Thx Chronicle. Last Night's . Flay. 13 "Nevada, or The Lost Mine" drew one of the largest andiences ever gathered in The Dalles. The bouse was well filled, and had it not been that the grippe has dozens of victims in the city that kept other dozens from attending, there would not have been standing room. The Dalles is justly proud of its local dramatic club, and never fails to show Its appreciation of its home talent. The stage : was well fitted up and the play, which is interesting from first to last, ran smoothly throughout. It is difficult to comment upon the individual char acters, for we feel that did we say all the words of praise the acting deserved, that we would be charged with dealing in flattery, yet we cannot forego a brief review of the characters. The play hinges upon "Nevada," an old miner,- who, after discovering a rich gold mine, is struck on the bead by a rock falling from the roof of the tunnel, and although be gets back to camp, he is mentally deranged, and cannot again find his mine. On this foundation built the balance of ' the story. Nevada's" wife came from the East to seek him, but reaching the cabin of 'Vermont," an old miner, dies, leaving with him her little girl, who grows up the pride of the camp, is sent off to school by "Vermont," returns, bringing her teacher, "Miss Agnes Fairlee," with her. "Moselle," the waif, falls in love with "Dandv Dick," a young miner, who left home under a cloud, and "Agnes Fairlee" goes "gone" on "Tom Carew." "Silas Steele," a missionary of health, traveling for "Busted's Balm," turns out to be a son of "Vermont," and with "Jube," a negro, and '.'Win Kye," a Chinaman, assists in uncovering the villainies of "Jerden," the detective, who is the heavy villain of the play. These with "Mother Merton," who was a mother to. "Moselle," complete the cast of characters. The part of "Nevada" was taken by Mr. Harry Lonsdale and taken well. though it was the most difficult part of the play. Mr. Nolan as "Vermont1 showed a thorough understanding of the character, and looked and acted the old time miner to perfection. "Tom Carew" was another difficult part that was well taken by Mr. N. Kinnott, and "Dandy Dick," by R. Sinnott, was equally well played. "Silas Steele" was the easiest part of the whole play, that is, it was easiest to Johnny Hampshire to whom all parts are easy. Mr. Fred Wilson had the thankless part of the play, that of the black-bearded villain and as nine-tenths of the audience felt like getting up on stage and kicking him, it is fair to presume that he acted his part well enough. Mr. Hartnett, the negro miner, and Charley Heppner as "Win Kye," the ubiquitous Chinaman were always around at the right time to discover just the things necessary to the unfolding of the plot. '"The latter gave a Chinese song that was heartily encored We have forborne mentioning the ladies who took part in the play until last, because the best of a feast, literary or otherwise, comes in the dessert" Mrs. G. C. Blakeley as "Mother Mer ton," had but little to do, but that little was done thoroughly. Miss Rose Michell made a charming little "Moselle," and Won a warm spot in the hearts of the audience at once, which she held to the last ; and Miss Myrtle Michell took the part of ' "Agnes Fairlee" in fine shape. The play was a success in every way, yielding, besides the two hours' pleas ure, the sum of $172.75 gross. The worst part of the play was, that while the larger portion of the audience was present at 8 o'clock, at which- time the curtain was supposed to raise, there were others who came straggling in un til 8:40 The music was furnished by the Or chestral Union, and that leaves nothing more to be said on that score, except that each number brought forth hearty applause. The second scene, representing the interior of a log cabin, was the handi work of the artist, Mr. Home, and it was a realistic bit of work, too. When Baby was sick, -we gave her Castoria. When she was a Child, she cried for Castoria. When she became Hiss, she clung to Castoria. When she had Children, she gave them Castoria.
