Miss Bottorff has returned from Port land, where she purchased for Mrs. Briggs a splendid line of millinery in all' the latest styles. Joseph Kohler, of whose illness men tion was made Saturday, has sufficiently recovered to .come home. He bids fair to recover quickly. The ladies of the Methodist church will give a .Tom Thumb wedding and chrysanthemum show Monday evening, November 4tb. This entertainment will be very unique, and an attractive pro gram will be presented. The people of Sherman county want to come to The Dalles and The Dalles wants them to. The meeting at the courthouse tonight is to hasten the building of the Rattlesnake road. Let there be a large attendance of business men. The city is $100 richer today, owing to a rush of business in the recorder's court. Several cash bails were forfeited, beside some fines for disorderly conduct. If this rate of receipts ceuld be kept up, it wouldn't, take long to materially re duce the city's debt. The Degree of Honor entertainment and social dance will be at Fraternity hall Wednesday night. Admission, 25 cents. The program will be published tomorrow. The committee in charge is making great efforts to have the entertainment a success and a good time is promised. Another mining claim was filed with the county clerk today. A. Bettingen, Jr., is the claimant, and he files on twenty acres on the shore of the Colum bia in the Cape Horn mining district. The boom in filing mining claims still continues. We hope the desired results will be forthcoming. Business is yery quiet on the railroad just at present, there being three crews PANTS PR A SF waiting to be eent out. The wheat has not yet begun to move, but if the price raises somewhat, or bad weather sets in, ! trainmen may look for a busy season. There is plenty of wheat in the country to be transported, but most of it is being stored in the warehouses, and little has been sent to the seaboard. There will be a meeting of the sub scribers to the Sherman county road this evening at the old courthouse. Mr. Barzee, who has done a great deal tow ards the promotion of this enterprise, is in the citv, and is very anxious to meet our business men. The matter is one of great importance to The Dalles, as well as the people of Sherman county, and we hope to see a large attendance. Remember the place and the tirrle this evening at 8 p. m. at the old courthouse. Don't fail to be present. Mr. F. H. Rowe, the sawmill man f Lyle landing, was in town today. While here be purchased from Mr. B. F. Laughlin a piece of ground on the edge of the bluff, near James Smpes' new residence. Mr. Rowe will immediately' set about the construction of a hand some residence. The lumber is already cut and work upon the stone foundation is expected to begin immediately. The house will be in a commanding situation and will doubtless be one of the orna ments to the city. Cascade Locks was well represented in The Dalles yesterday, a large number of its representative citizens being guests of the Elks. Among the Cascade people in the city were David Stewart, T. W. Lewis, E. P. Ash, A. J. Knightly, F. H. Sherman, D. L. Cates, E. L. Biggs, J. Allison, W. A. Calvin, J. M. Mclsaacs, A. B. Andrews, Paul Nelson, L. F. Rus sell, I. N. Day, V. C. Lewis, H. C. Fields, George Trana. There were others who attended the festivities whose names it was impossible to learn. Mr. M. Reinig of Helena, Mont., is in the city today visiting at the residence of Judge Liebe. Mr. Reinig lived in The Dalles over thirty years ago, and is one of the earliest pioneers of the city. Col. Sinnott, of the Umatilla House, says he remembers when Mr. Reinig kept a hotel here of paying him a dollar for a meal, andSate a good many meals at this rate. He doesn't remember, however, whether the meals were good or bad. Since leaving The Dalles Mr. Reinig has lived in Montana, where things have gone well witn him, and he has attained a comfortable prosperity. Complaint is made that someone is taking flowers from the graves at the cemetery. Last Saturday evening a lady went to the cemetery and noticed that some carnations, which had been planted on the grave of a friend, were in good condition ; but yesterday she visit ed the cemetery and the flowers were gone. It can hardly be possible that anyone would deliberately steal from the dead, but this instance is only one of a number of complaints. Such acts of vandalism deserve punishment, and it is to be hoped if the tbeiving continues, some offender may be caught in the act Rr M A YS The Elks Is New Pastures. The Elks captured The Dalles Saturday. The steamer Sadie B with the Cascade delegation on board, arrived at 6:30 and was met at the dock by the members of The Dalles lodge with the band, and a large crowd of spectators. When the trim little craft was moored to the dock, and the passengers reached the shore, a double file procession was formed and with the band in the lead, the long line marched up the street, stopping in front of the Umatilla House, where eeveral selections were played. At 8 p. m. the meeting began in Fra ternity hall, at which seven candidates joined the order. Beside the delegation present from Cascades there was quite a number of visitors from Portland and f some from other places. As tne business before the lodge proved -very important it was a late hour when the gavel de clared the business session closed and the banquet announced as the next thing of interest on the program. From one end to the other in the long Uma tilla House dining room a table bad been spread, loaded with all manner of good things. Fifty-four Elks were in attendance at the banquet and the affair proved the finest of its kind ever given in The Dalles. The management of the banquet as well as the details of the other proceedings bad been placed in the hands of Mr. J. S. Fish and the actions and words of those he entertained showed how well the trust was dis charged. The orchestra was etationed in one corner of the dining hall and, during the banqueting and between the speeches discoureed sweet music to the great enjoyment of those whf were present. Some bright speeches wgre made by different guests. Mr. John Michell delivered an appropriate ad dress of welcome. Clever responses to calls were made by Congressman Ellis, Circuit Judge Bradsbaw, Mr. I. N. Day and others. The speeches were all appreciated by the listeners. At a seasonable hour the banquet cam to an end and the guests departed full of kindly feeling towards the Elks of The Dalles for the hospitable treatment they had received. The Portland delegation returned -home on the morning train while the Sadie B with the Cascade members aboard started at 9 o'clock. As she passed down the river she was greeted with the tooting of whistles from the stationary engine and the different locomotives at the company shops. The - new steamer Sadie B attracted much attention during her short stay in The Dalles. She is a trim little crafty having accomodations for quite a num ber of passengers. The engines are the ones formerly n the steamer Cyclone, and drive the steamer at a high rate of speed. The run from the Cascades to The Dalles was made with an average of fourteen miles an hour, though the en gines were not worked at full speed. The Sadie B. will be used in towing the barges loaded with stone.and the dredger at the locks, though ultimately she may do passenger business on the river.

Bettingen's old stand, Second street. sounded strange to bear the tones of an other steamboat whistle upon the river, but it is only a forerunner of what will be when the locks are open. The number of excursionists on the Regulator yesterday was not so great as the inducements offered were expected to attract yet the crowd was a fairly large one. The day was perfect and the temperature was just cool enough to be bracing. The ride and the music were greatly enjoyed by the excursionists and the hours at the Cascades, pleasantly spent looking over the government works and noting the progress that had been made. The steamer returned at 6:30. The Orchestra Union has given eeveral of these excursions during the summer and their efforts to enable the people to see the locks under pleasant circumstances and at a low fare are much appreciated. Mr. Alfred F. Sears of Portland, who has been retained by the friends of the murdered Chinaman, Lock Wo, is in the city becoming familiar with the de tails of the case. The two Chinamen, Harry and Ching, have kept entirely separate ever since their incarceration. Harry is under the charge of Sheriff Driver, while Ching takes his food from the hands of Marshal Blakeney and is confined in the city jail. It is'not known what line of evidence the defense will seek to establish. When Baby was sick, ve gav her Castoria. . When she -was a Child, she cried for Castoria.
