Mrs Olive Ames was in the city last
evening and tried to make arrangements
to have Professor Loska, the celebrated
mind reader, give one of his exhibitions
here, bat did not succeed. The subjects
of mind reading, hypnotism and kindred
matters pertaining to the occult, possess
a deep interest for the larger portion of
humanity, and we believe such an ex
hibition would attract a larger audience
than anything that could be presented.

A. Fake Lottery.
The bicycle craze had a decidedly new
feature yesterday. There, has been a
scheme for disposing of the machines of
the genuine lottery style, and yesterday
after a drawing for the machine put up
by C. S. F.Baker, when it was learned that
his sister, Mrs Koontz, had drawn the
lucky number the ticket holders became
suspicious and began to investigate. A
boy named Ferguson bad drawn, the
ticket from the box, and it ia claimed
that this particular ticket was crumpled
and soiled to such an extent that it
caused the first suspicion that all was not
right. Borne of those interested inter
viewed the Ferguson boy, who, it is said,
admitted that Baker had hired him to
do the drawing giving him a ticket which
he held concealed in his hand when he
he drew out and so won the prize.
When this became known there was
considerable excitement and bad feeling
and the result was that Baker was, ar
rested, charged with selling false and
fictitious lottery tickets. The case was
set for trial at 2 o'clock this afternoon,
t which time the defendant and bis at-
orney, Judge Bennett appeared and, as
the latter had not examined into the
matter the case was continued until 4
'clock this afternoon. The matter is
Before Justice Davis.
A Lively Buna-way.
There was a lively runaway this morn-'
ing that came near getting to be an epi
demic. Sandoz' team; the wagon loaded
with stable refuse, started the fun on
Union street. As they came up the
street Keller's horse hitched to a light
hack, snuffed danger and struck out
ahead of them. Turning up Third street
at the courthouse corner they started
Bob Hood, who was driving up that
thoroughfare, and be fearing a smash-up
put the buckskin to his nags and tried to
run ahead of the storm. Up Third
they came at break-neck speed, and 'it
was hard to tell for awhile which was
going to come in ahead, but Hood side
tracked himself the first opportunity,
while the Keller horse getting all he
wanted, was easily caught, but the San
doz team were still headed towards
Dnfur and going faster than a flying
machine when last they were seen.

City Bonds Sold.
The bids for Dalles City bonds were
opened last night at 8 o'clock and were
as follows :
A. H. Curtiss, of The Dalles, bid for
$20,000 worth, paying for each $500 bond,
$550.50, or 10 and 1-10 th per cent, pre
mium.
Theis & Barroll, of Spokane, bid for
$40,000 worth, 2 and l-20th cents pre
mium.
E. H. Rollins, of Boston, IK cents
premium.
R. H. Hard, Seattle, 8) mills, pre
mium, t
The bonds were sold to Mr. Curtiss
and to Theis & Barroll. Mr. Curtiss
pays to the city fot $20,000 bonds, $22,-
020, and Theis & Barroll $40,820. The
total is $62,840, or $2,840 premium.
The bid made by Mr. Curtiss is pecul
iarly gratifying. It shows the confidence
our own business people who are thor
oughly acquainted with the country and
its resources have in it. The bids from
the outside are also good, all at a pre
mium, though slight. The bonding of
the city's indebtedness is a grand thing.
It cuts the interest charges down by one
fourth, and at the same time pays off
nearly $3,000 of the principal. With
economical management the city's in
debtedness should now be gradually
wiped out. The city's warrants now are
mostly in the hands of her own, people
probably 95 per cent, of the whole
amount being owned here. . The flame
may be Eaid of our county indebtedness,
and besides this a large share of Klick
itat county's script has found its way
into the hands of Dalles people.
There is not a business proposition
that crops up but shows that The Dalles
is one of the thriftiest business centers,
in the Northwest and the ownership of
our county and city warrants is no ex
ception to the rule.
