They have a membership in The Dalles of 125. his morning a train of twenty-eight loads left The Dalles for Portland. In the engine cab with Engineer Randall sat Master Mechanic Graham, while in the caboose were Supt. O'Brien and Chief Dispatcher Campbell. . The train was an experiment, as such a long one and so heavily loaded had not gone out of The Dalles before with only one en gine pulling it. In the interests of econ omy, the railroad management is seek ing to increase the number of cars on each train without increasing the ex pense of labor. The freight train this morning was too heavy for the engine and the "doubling up" process was found necessary. The crew was com pelled to divide the train near Crate's point and the engine took one-half to Rowena and then returned for the re mainder. While the trial this morning was unsatisfactory to the extent men tioned, efforts will be continued till larger trains are pulled over the roads than has been the practice in the past. Alden-Joles Wedding. At 11 o'clock this morning the resi dence of Mr. and Mrs. Joles was the scene of a pretty wedding. In the pres ence of the family of the bride and a few invited friends, Rev. J. H. Wood, of the Methodist church, joined in marriage Mr. Charles Alden and Mies Amber E. Joles, third daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Isaac Joles. At the . conclusion of the ceremony the bridal party sat down to a bountiful wedding feast, where good wishes for the happiness of the bride and groom were repeatedly expressed. Both the young people are well known in The Dalles, where during the years leading to maidenhood, Miss Joles has lived and where she enjoys the friend ship of a large circle. Mr. Alden is first officer of the steamer Regulator and, though hav ing lived in The Dalles but about a year has made many friends by his gen tlemanly deportment. The happy cou ple left on the afternoon train for a wedding trip to Portland and the Puget sound. A number of friends assembled at the station to bid them a pleasant journey. An Old Friend Heard From. One of Capt. J. W. Lewis' friends in Kentucky has been heard from in a manner very gratifying to that gentle man. At the recent meeting of the G. A. R. in Kentucky, Col. R. M. Kelly was elected department commander of the Kentucky division, and one of his first acts was to appoint Captain Lewis an aid-de-camp on his staff, an honor much' appreciated because it came un sought. Colonel Kelly and Captain Lewis served together during the war, and the following clipping from yester day's Oregonian shows the possible honors in Btore for, the distinguished Kentuckian : Among the many prominent Republi cans who have been named as possible candidates for the United States senator Bhip from Kentucky, ia Colonel R. M. Kelly, the editor-in-chief of the Louis ville Commercial. Colonel Kellv is one of the brainiest men in the Republican prty in .Kentucky, ana possibly the best posted on national affairs. His election to the position of department commander of the Kentucky division of the G. A. R. attests to his popularity, and there are hundreds of his comrades anxious to have him enter the senatorial race and be elected to that position. One Company. One Policy.

Seldom has to large or so representa tive a concourse of people filled a build ing in The Dalles as that which gathered in the Baldwin opera house last evening to witness the public installation exer cises of the Knights of Pythias. The floor was arranged in the form of a Py thian lodge room, with the altar in the center and the officers seated in their accustomed places. Seats for the mera bers of the lodge were arranged in the center of the room, while ranged back of these were seats for the invited guests. Long before the beginning of the exer cises the large building was crowded with interested spectators. The exercises began by Chancellor Commander Gavin calling the lodge to order, and then the officers from the grand lodge were announced. At this time the Knights who were appointed to represent the grand lodgefiled in and took their stations before the altar. The grand lodge officers were as follows : Grand Chancellor, Frank Menefee : Vice Chancellor, John Michell ; Grand Mas ter of Exchequer, C. E. Bayard ; Grand Keeper R. and S., T. A. Hudson ; G. M. at, A., G. T. Thompson ; G. I. G., F. S Gunning. These gentlemen were depu ties from the grand lodge and represent ed that body in the work of installation. Chancellor Commander Gavin gave way to Grand Chancellor Menefee, who in stalled the different officers of Friend ship Lodge, No. 9. The sentiment of the ritualistic work was yery pretty, and was read by Mr. Menefee in a feeling manner. The following officers were then installed according to the forms and ceremonies of the order: CO., L. E. Crowe: V. C, E. B. Dufur; Prelate, L. S.Davis; Master of the Work, II. H. Riddell ; Keeper of Records and Seals, D. W. Vause; Master of Finance, L. L. Lane; Master of Exchequer, W. E. Wal thers ; M. at A., W. W. Smith ; Inside Guard, J. W. Blakeney; Outside Guard, M. M. Lane. At the conclusion of the installation ceremonies,' Chancellor Commander Crowe made a short speech, which was heartily applauded. Hon. W. H. Wil son was then introduced as the speaker of the evening, and for half an hour or more, claimed the closest attention of the large audience. Mr. Wilson spoke about the early prejudice with which secret Societies were looked upon and told of how this feeling was giving way to a kindlier one aa people learned more of the beneficent workings of the order. He traced the history of the Pythian lodge, and referred to the beautiful story of Damon and Pythias, from which the order draws itB inspiration. The speaker said every man, who was a Knight of Pythias, was a better citizen for that reason. He paid a glowing tribute to the principles and workings of the order and by his words added much to the good repute in which the organization is already held in the community. Mr. Wilson's speech commended itself to his hearers and at its close, he was com plimented heartily by many listeners. Both in thought and language it was ex ceedingly appropriate to the occasion. At the conclusion of the address the floor was cleared and the Orchestra Union from ita station in a corner played some of its sweetest mu?'c, while the feet of many dancers kept time to it. The occasion was a most pleasant one, and the Knights and their guests will look back upon their public installation with satisfaction. PERSONA!. MENTION. T. W. Glavey ia in town from -Dufur. G. A.
