J. B. Crossen is in trouble again, and
all because his sorrel cat, with the longi
tudinal stripes of white and yaller-red,
has again abandoned the grocery store.
All through Lent Jerry was an example
of goodness, but yesterday he skipped.
His return to Mr. Crossen will gladden
that gentleman's heart, and he promises
to forgive Jerry without any mental res
ervations, if he will only come back.
Tonight at 8 o'clock the bids for Dalles
City bonds will be opened, and if the
bids are satisfactory will be awarded.
There has been great inquiry concerning
these bonds, more than fifty letters hav
ing been received requesting informa
tion as to the interest, time to run, etc.
The Dalles enjoys a good reputation in
the financial world, and the bids to
night ought to be well up in price and
show a handsome premium. It will be
a great thing for the city to bond its in
debtedness, as it would reduce the inter
est charges, and with good management
the city ought to slowly reduce its debt,

Our spring is far gone; soon summer
will be here, and we - will have bad
scarcely a taste of spring's - flavoring,
and only a sniff of its sweets. Our days
and nights still continue to be a little on
the howling nature, and not at all to be
trusted. If you should go out for a walk
the advice to take an overcoat should? be
respected and acted upon, if not there
should be no complaint if you return
frozen to death and snowed under or
drowned. Not bo apt to be drowned,
for the prayer most often heard is "More
rain." Many predict a complete drouth
and failures entire in their general
crops, especially to those who have no
Irrigating advantages.
On the John Day the fruit trees are
beautiful in their gorgeous display of
bloom. At- this place buds are but
lately begun to open, but the trees are
loaded with them. The prospects are
that the loads of bloom and fine display
is all for naught, the frost has so little
respect.
Our butcher, Mr. Miller, was sadly
disappointed in not seeing bia family
Tuesday's stage, but a letter that give!
him hope another week. His disap
pointment does not unfit him for a lively
lookout for bia business interests. His
greatest trouble seems to be to supply
the demand of good appetites. So far
he has been very fortunate in securing
some excellent beef, as I can vouch for,
R. E. Misner's building makes a fine
show, as it stands a half -story above
every other building in town. -
Many persons have taken the mining
craze and are bound for the Iron King
mines. I do not doubt but they will
return well satisfied that they have
been fooled. ' '
Owner's of sheep are very busy caring
for their flocks, and report a very good
per cent of lambs. "Ho grass" is a
great complaint among the sheep men.
There is a general dullness prevalent
that sunshine or shower does not drive
away. Everyone seems unsteady or in
doubt, failing to invest enough to keep
up their business interest. .
There have been sheep-buyers here
for some weeks, but I have not heard
positively ot any sales. A few-cattle
men sold but not sufficient to make
money a drug. Prices given for 2-year
olds, $14 and $15 ; yearlings, $10 to $13.
Generally these sales were made by per
sons that were desirous of a little ready
money, but with all people seem to be
more hopeful than last spring.

"The most important case ia that of
John Hawthorne, who ia charged with
the murder of Indian Policeman Kar-

perado of the ancient Eastern Oregon
