Tommy, the trick horse, came up on the Regulator last night. The boat was quite late last night, not leaving the locks until 4 :30. Foor drunks yesterday and one today is the record in the city court. Register Moore's dog, Bismarck, is still alive, but his owner has little hopes of his recovery. t Mr. J. Folco has a brand new soda fountain with " all the latest fixtures. Call and see it. Quite a number of wagons and emi grant outfits were brought up on the Regulator last night, bound for the in terior. - . The finest rain of the season fell last night, and as it was followed by warm weather it is probable we shall have repetition of it tonight. - 'Concert, vignettes, etc., etc., at the opera house tonight. If you don't go, you won't see some things tbat you can't laugh at because you didn't see 'em. Seel The Durrant case 'begins to look very hopeful for the prisoner. The Pinker tons nave been called in and no juror will believe a Finkerton detective under oath or anything else. - . The. Eugene Guard says that Friday Mr. Frank Hampton will ship five cars of cattle from that place to Portland, nd thence to The Dalles by boat. From here the cattle will be driven to Crook county. . . The Herrick cannery made its first run this morning, putting up about 1500 'pounds of chinooks. Everything wi smoothly, aDd all . that is now required ' to make the business a success is more fish; and plenty of them." ' ; Professor Edwards, the great horse tamer and breaker, will give an exhibi tion at the fair grounds tomorrow after noon. - Wild and vicious horses will be introduced and handled. The wonderful trick performing horse, will also be ex hibited. : ' ' - ' - ' Mr. E. O. Pentland of Independence, has begun the publishing of a Sunday paper, known as the Sunday Record. The new feature of the venture is that he takes the dispatches for that morning. giving his readers the very latest news. It ought to receive liberal patronage, for it is a bright little paper. Be sure and go to supper this evening with the ladies of the First Christian church, in the old Chronicle office. You will have ample time to get a good square meal, and then attend the enter tainment at the opera house. Don't forget to come and after the entertain ment come back with your best girl and treat her to ice cream and cake. By invitation of the Literary society Dr. Doaue will repeat the lecture , re cently delivered by him at the Willam ette University medical commencement. The lecture will take place Friday even ing at 8 o'clock, in the Congregational church. Everyone is cordially invited to attend. Special music will be on the program. ' No admisbion will be charged nor collection taken. The Sunday fishing proposition is re ceiving considerable attention just now on account of Washington having abol ished the law prohibiting fishing on Sundays. The law is still in force in Oregon, and as both states have juris diction over the river, there is quite a clash of authority. Of course, it does not seem proper tbat a man should be allowed to catch fish on one side of the river and not on the other on any par ticular day, but under the existing cir cumstances this is what is being done. Some of the Oregon fishermen will make a test case ot it. We understand that Attorney General Idleman is pre paring an opinion- on the matter . for the guidance of Fish Commissioner Mc- Guire. Mr. Kelley's Koarlns; Wells. Mr. H. Kelley of Juniper Flat made us a visit this morning and gave us a monthly record of the action of his two wells, which we are restrained from printing on ' account of its length. There are two bored wells on Mr. Kel ley's place, each six inches in diameter, one 62 feet deep and the other 110. The peculiarity of the wells is that they are what is known as breathing wellB, hav ing a current; of air flowing out of them for a time, and then being drawn back. The air is of the uniform temperature of 52 degrees. Mr. Kelley says tbat they record the passing of storms hundreds of miles away by the velocity of the wind coming from them, which at. time causes regular roar. The big storm at Seattle aat winter was noted by them with a louder roaring than ever before. Mr Kelley says the wells are quiet some times for an hour or two, but generally are in operation. He is of the opinion that the air in them is affected by the tideB, but his figures showing that the air sometimes comes in the same direc tion for several days, will not bear out the statement. , Woodl Wood!

A Treat la 8tore for Music. Lovers of Good For several days, past the Portland papers have had considerable to say about the "O. K. T' concert company, and mentioned in connection 'with the troupe names so well known to lovers of music that it excited no small amount of curiosity as to the object of the com bination. While the O. K. T. people are a "patent medicine troupe." in point pf fact, that definition will hardly apply to such men as N. E. Skinner, who in addition to possessing one of the best trained and clearest tenor voices in this country, has taken leading parts in the famous Adeline Patti company ; or to Messrs. Alexander and Bowman, who were largely instrumental in giving fame and popularity to the Multorpor quartette of Portland. Will C. Ayls- worth, the second tenor, is also much above the average concert singer, while those beet qualified to judge, accord E. B. Freeman first place in the ranss of performers on stringed instruments. Another member of the company is Bert Van Cleve, who is such a favorite in this valley, that it would be a waste of breath or ink, rather to say anything of his comic songs and flashes of wit. The object of the company in giving these entertainments is to advertise Oregon Kidney Tea, but there is no tire some harangues upon the subject, no goods are sold is. the , hall, and it is an advertisement and not an auction sale. You are given a $1 entertainment free, not forced to listen to some loud voiced fakir sell "fake" medicines. The mem bers of the troup are gentlemen of the highest standing in the social circles of Portland and the fact that Mr. Skinner is manager is sufficient guarantee of the concert being , in every, respect up to a high standard of excellence and pro priety. . . . ' O. K. T. concert company will open at the opera house tomorrow night, admis sioB, free, free. ' : ' - . -- . - : 'a Neat Catch. The Currant Creek Road. Last week Mr. J. H. Sherar invited several citizens of this place out to see the work he had already done on the new Currant creek road, a few miles southeast of here. None could get away at the time but Messrs. N. W. Wallace and W. D. Jones, who were out all day Thursday, and have the following report to make : They say it would surprise anyone to see the amount of work Mr. Sherar has done on the road with the limited funds and in such a short time. It is a very rough, mountainous country out there, but the road has been laid out so well that, when completed, a team could easily trot up the grade at any place, there not being a steep place in the whole road.- The sixteen Indians who are employed are all well experienced road workers, and one of them could do as much at his kind of work as could two or three inexperienced men. The road, so far as it has been built, is actually the best highway in this part of the country, and if the county court will at once ap propriate $500 with which to complete the balance of the road, in less than two weeks there will be no obstruction be tween the upper country and The Dalles the best local wool market on the coast. Heppner is working hard to get a road threugb to the Mitchell country, and if successful it will induce about the travel to go that way instead of to The Dalles, that is unless this new Cur rant creek road is completed at once. Those who will be benefited most by the new road will be the business men of The Dalles, and it is their duty to insist on tne county court appropriating tne requisite amount of money with which to complete this road. . If this is not done, all the bard . work already per formed will be entirely lost. We believe the county court will do what is right in the matter. Antelope Herald. Hi There!

A telegram was sent here to jthe marshal describing him and asking that he be arrested, and stating tbat he was coming down blind-baggage. - Conductor Fowler, whose train he was supposed to be on, also had his description and find ing the man on the platform, instead, of firing him asked him inside, and kept a watch, on him. Arriving here he turned him over, to Nightwatehman Connelly ,t who at once searched him. He was about to despair of finding anything, but on taking off his shoes 87 of the money in bills, and some receipts to the man he held up were found in one of them. He is at preeent confined in the city jail, but Sheriff Hauser, of Umatilla county, will be down after him tonight, and there is no doubt but that he will go over the road. . . ?aln baa' no snow with Dr. Miles' Pain FiBsv li Q CONCERT COMPANY Thursday, May 2d.
