Leaves From tbe Notebook of Chronicle Reporters. Seeds at coet at E. J. Collins Co. 'a Everybody wants to hear tbe O. K, T.'s tonight at the Armory hall. ' Latest novelties in Sailors, Mother Goose crowns, at Mrs. M. E. Briggs'. There will be plenty of seats reserved - for the ladies at the armory ball tonight, to hear the O. K. T. concert company License to wed Was issued yesterday to Thomas Lacy and Miss Ida Billen, both of Hood River. . One hobo was before tbe recorder this morning to learn the measure ot his penance. The recorder sized it np as about $5 worth. - The Epworth League desires to thank most heartily all the friends who so kindly assisted them in their entertain ment last evening. , .The man with the bill book has been interviewing our citizens again today, it being the day set apart for the settling of monthly accounts. , ' One of the neatest jobs of painting in the city is that just completed on the front of Andy Baldwin's saloon. It is done in maroon and gold. Joseph Proulx filed his declaration of intention to become a citizen of the United States, this morning. He re nounces allegiance to the queen of Great Britain.. The ladies of the Christian church re' port the receipts for their supper and are highly pleased at the generous pat ronage they received. Fern lodge, Degree of Honor, will give a. social at Fraternity hall, next Wednes day evening. A musical - and literary program, refreshments and dancing will entertain the guests. Admission, 25 . cents. The Herrick cannery yesterday in its opening run put up seventy-five cases of first-class Chinook salmon. The supply is increasing daily, owing to more wheels getting to work rather than to any great increase in the run. Professor Edwards, the great horse tamer and breaker, will give an exhibi tion at the fair grounds tomorrow after cod. Wild and vicious horses will be introduced and handled. The wonderful trick performing horse, will also be ex hibited. Two young gentlemen in Portland wound up a night's dissipation by turn ing on a fire alarm. Judge Smith after listening to their statements, took the case under advisement for about half a minute, and then fined them $100 each. They will not indulge in that' kind of luxury soon again. For the nine months ending March 31, the number of persons coming to this country to find homes was 140,980 as againct 218,648 in the same time in 1894, and 259,580 in 1893. The money brought by them amounted to $2,395,840, or about $17 each, and yet we claim there is. a law against pauper immigration. By invitation of tbe Literary society Dr. Doane 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 Congregational1 church. Everyone is cordially invited to attend. Special music will be on tbe program. No admisbion will be charged nor collection taken. Quite a number of Dalles people went out to Williams' grove yesterday to at tend the May-day picnic. They all re port having had a delightful time There were about 200 present, the music was fine, and the eatables and otber substantial features of the occasion were all that could be desired. Mr. J. C Burks, of Sherman county, was orator for the occasion and his address is highly ppoken of. Judge Bellinger is "onto his job" all right, and does not purpose standing in with the criminal class employed by this government to promote crime. Doc Davenport, who is a counterfeiter, was brought before him for trial for counter feiting silver coins. He pleaded guilty, but made a long statement to the effect that Harris, the United States special agent, bad employed Fresch to get him to make tbe coins, Fresch bought the solder and the plaster for the molds. Judge Bellinger does not believe special agents , should go over the country tempting men to commit a crime for tbe purpose' of having them punished, and so will discbarge Davenport. If the de partment would follow suit and discharge Harris, justice would be done. To Oar Fmtrons. ., . Having this day sold our business and good will to Charles Cooper and E. A, Mann, who will take possession to morrow morning, we desire to return our thanks to our friends and patrons, and to bespeak for our successors a continu ance of their friendship and patronage. .". .

Remember there will be no medicine sold from tbe stage. . all pain banished hj Dr. Miles' Pain I' lite. Concerning: the Censes. Editor Chronicle: I see by your article in yesterday's issue, that there are those who are disposed to think that my enumeration of this city does not give the population of The Dalles in numbers to suit their ideas of magnitude. Now, I was not taking the census for any particular person or persons, conse quently I did not inquire just what numbers would suit them ; but the law makes .it obligatory upon me as assessor of the county to take the census of the county, The Dalles included: so I adopted the best and only means by which a correct enumeration can be bad and that was to take it street by street and house by house, through the entire city. I employed two competent men to assist me and started out with tbe in structions that they should miss no house, one taking one side of the street and tbe other the opposite, and miss no place that any one roomed above or be low, not even a bachelor's cabin, and followed street by street and house by house, taking the cross streets myself, not missing a shanty without finding out who and how many lived there, and if we.came to a house that the lady was not at borne we invariably found out the name and number of residents by their next door neighbor, not doubting its correctness, and my roll is subject to in spection by any one and at any time, and if any of tbe critics can find a family in Tbe Dalles that the name and nnmber is not on my roll, I will find them a five dollar piece in the ashes, as ' I had ho interests to serve nor favors to grant, other than doing my duty in performing the work and anyone is perfectly we) come to go over the work and I will com pare rolls with them at any time. F. H. Wakefield, Assessor of Wasco County. At tbe Operst Bouse. The entertainment at the opera bouse last night drew a large and enthusiastic audience. . Tbe program was well' ren dered and afforded an evening's pleasaDt entertainment. Tbe tableaux were good but the speaking tableaux were ' mute, no one being able to hear what was said. This was due largely to tbe rnde actions and noise made by. those who should know better. The scarf drill was beauti ful as was the winding of the May pole, and the recitation by Miss Gruhbs and song by Miss Myrtle Micbell were thor oughly appreciated. We cannot forbear to mention in this connection a custom that seems to have grown to tbe proportions of ' a good sized nuisance, and that is that no matter at what hour a performance is advertised to commence, a large-number will come in half an hour late, a piece of inexcusa ble rudeness. Tbe management at the opera house should see that the curtain goes up at the minute advertised and if people still insist on coming late close the doors until the curtain is down. Bikes.' city. - For a $100 wheel they have tbe Rambler, which is one of the best known bicycles on tbe market. It has many special features and patents, not found on any other wheel, oneof which is their detachable tire, which is admitted to be the best tire yet discovered, and which is now need bv half of the manufacturers in the United States. Tbey also have the agency, direct from the manufac. turers, for the celebrated Waverly bi cycles, which are forging ahead of every thing else this season, the factory hav ing already turned out over 20,000 of the 95' wheels, and not being able at the present time to fill their orders. This wheel is certainly a very handsome one, and is claimed to be the highest of high grade, and what is still better they sell for $85 and tbe ladies' wheel for $75. In addition to these tbey have the Chicago Ideals, which are made by the manufacturers of the Rambler, as a second grade wheel, are strong and sub stantial, and it is bard to see the differ ence between them and the $100 wheel. These are old at $55 and $65. They also have bicycles to rent, by the day or hour. PERSONAL MENTION. Mr. Hobart. superintendent of the state portage railroad at the Cascades, is in tne city. Mr. T. R. Meyer, representing the Stark Medicine Co., and advance agent of tbe O. K. T. Concert Company made us a pleasant call tms morning. Judge Bradshaw will leave for Prine ville tomorrow or Saturdav, court open' ing there next Monday. Several of the legal fraternity will accompany him. Hi There ! Mr. M. Kennedy of Wamic is in the city. In conversation with a Chronicle reporter be stated that the grain in that section was looking fine and was much further advanced than that nearer tbe river.
