Learea From the Notebook of Chronicle Reporters. Rain and a stationary temperature are predicted for tomorrow. Four cars of hogs were loaded at the stock yards last night for Troutdale. A mar .iage license was granted this morning to J. B. Walters and Miss Eliza Snow. Eastern Oregon is the place to live. Where could a more beautiful January day be found? A slight snow, which quickly turned to rain this morning, has served to make the streets still muddier. Smith Bros, will give two new dances, Trilby and two step, Thursday evening. A class for ladies and new beginners Saturday afternoon. jan23-lt Lisle Wagner, the boy who was com. mitted to the reform school for larceny in a dwelling, was taken to Salem by Sheriff Driver this morning. The new mast for the Regulator has been put in position. The piece of tim ber is an unusually good specimen and should stand the strain a long time. LaBt night the sweet strains of sere nades' music were Wafted upon the quiet eve. Des air. a : number slush and winter young men paid ing to their lady the compliment of friends. The party ned good sing- era and the music had a pleasing sound At a convention of the employes of The Chronicle office it was voted unan imously that the candy shop across the street furnishes delicious candies and the proprietor is a gentleman. A vote of thanks was tendered him for his liberal donation. The revival services at the M. E. chuTch continue with unabated interest. Mrs. Wood, who is assisting in conduct ing these services, last evening delivered a forcible address upon the Bubject of "The Woman and the Lost Coin," which was listened to with rapt attention by a large audience. Deep interest was mani fest throughout. " The Baldwin opera ' house will be opened for the theatrical year by the ap pearance of Effie Ellsler next Wednes day and Thursday evenings. The Bald win has been having a season of quiet, in the theatrical line' for some time, during which our people have been en joying themselves with social pleasures. The first play of the year will undoubt edly be witnessed by a large audience, as the fame of this actress and her compe tent company' have gone before and theatre goers may expect to bo well en tertained by the plays presen The school meeting on .January 31st will be an important one for the dis trict. The question otssipyiding more school room is a pressinane, and as mte the oIndot shag fconbw PR ASF. every property-owner in the district is interested in the subject, at least to the amount of taxes he pays, the matter is not one which can be treated as of little moment. From the prospects now in view it looks as if the district will have either to build another school building or rent one. One of these alternatives will have to be selected. Tha subject is one that will be helped by a free discus sion, and to that end The Chronicle will be glad to hear from any citizen who may have any views to present. It is in this way that a newspaper can be of much good to a community by providing a means ' whereby opinions may be circulated and a subject dis cussed with profit. The columns of this paper are always open to communica tions upon matters of interest, and es pecially in this instance we believe gocd would be obtained by hearing the views of our taxpayers. - The ladies of. Fern Lodge, D. of H., held one of their noted sessions last night at Fraternity hall in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Alden, who have .recently re turned from their wedding trip. After the regular exercises of lodge, the musical talent of the members was brought into requisition and discoursed sweet sounds for the entertainment of the guests. A 6olo by Miss Lizzie Sampson was beautifully rendered, and Mrs. Briggs delivered a recitation which was a combination of music and rhetoric in that happy form for which she is so well adapted. The tables were, then spread and a sumptuous lunch prepared, when the Chief of Honor, Mrs. Ollie Stephens, in a few well-chosen remarks, called up' the guests of the evening and Mrs. Capt. Waud presented them with an elegant silver spoon as a souvenir of the lodge's appreciation as members. The wind was in the wrong quarter for Mr. Alden's speech, but like a true sailor he put the ship on the other tack and made a safe harbor under the lee of his beautiful and accomplished wife. The whole affair was a complete sur prise to them, and most highly appre ciated by all present. Tlbbets-Bucbler Nuptials. Mr. Charles N. Tibbets arrived in The Dalles yesterday from Monterey, Calif ornia and today departed, taking with him as his wife one of The Dalles' fair young maidens. The wedding ceremony that made Charles Tibbeta and Miss Pauline D. Buchler one, was performed by the Rev. W. C. Curtis at the residence of the bride's parents shortly before noon this morning. The wedding was a quiet one, being witnessed only by the members of ' the family. After the cere mony, a wedding lunch was served. Mr. Tibbets is. well known in The Dalles, where for several years he made his home. During the time Bpent in this city he held a trusted position in the Pacific Express Company's office. Last . summer " he went to Monterey, where he holds a good situation in a large mercantile house. . Miss Buchler is the accomplished daughter of our much respected and popular citizen, Mr. August Buchler. MAYR Xhe years that have brought her to womanhood have been spent in this citv, where by her estimable qualities she has won many friends. The happy couple left on the after noon train for their California home, followed by the best wishes of all who know them. ' The Honor of Being First. The one question which lies deeoest in the minds of the peonle of this city and of the country whose river port it is, is, "When will She Jocks at the Cas cades be finished?"Although it may not be talked aboufVuVen all occasions, yet there is Lnrdly any citizen who, in his leisure moments, does not turn this matter over in hia mind and wonder if it is true, after all these years of waiting, of disappointment and hope deferred till almost gone this great undertaking is really to be accomplished, and the waters of the Columbia, figuratively speaking, will flow unfettered U the sea. March 1st, the day which seems to be agreed upon as the time for the in formal opening of the locks, is but a short while removed, and a little pa tience will determine whether or not the contractors have made their word good. A little clipping from the Stevenson Pioneer says : It is given out for a fact that the locks will be so far completed as to a'low the passage of boats by the first day of March, and the cities of Astoria and The Dalles are preparing to celebrate the event in great shape. There will be big excursions from both these places, and probably from many other Doints, to see the first boat pass through the channel. Our own beautiful Regulator is to have the honor of being the first boat to make the passage, and for a little while the middle river will be without a 8 team boat, for the first time in just forty years. All this is good news, and we hope it will come to paes without any further delay. We have been dis appointed so many times about the completion of the canal and locks that we are always afraid to make a state ment regarding their completion at a certain date for fear it will amount to only another disappointment. - k The Pioneer has been wrongfully in formed as to the . Regulator being the first boat to pass . through the locks. A director of The Dalles, Portland & As toria Navigation Company informed a Chbonicle reporter today . that the Dalles City would receive the honor of being first, and it is fitting that she should. For four years this staunch boat has steamed through the turbulent waters to the foot of the locks and stopped at the obstructions, not then removed. She has knocked at the door so often that it would be unfitting to let another enter first. Besides, the people of The Dalles would rather take no risks. We are not caring to have this river free from boats, even for once in forty years. We would rather be sought than seeking, and after other boats have reached the middle river, we are willing to let the Regulator pass through the locks. The day that the locks are opened will be a time of rejoicing such as never was seen in Eastern Oregon before. Subscribe tor The Chkoni cle and get the news. MIER & BENT Good Words for The Dalles. The Dalles is becoming known as a city of a steady, substantial growth, which, however bright its past has been, has a still more propitious future. The resources and advantages with which this place is blessed have been utilized to but a email degree, and With the re turn of material prosperity ,o the conn- try, and the muux of cap and people to the Northwest conditions are coming as sure as the of seasons Uhe Dalles will ma. re at strides in wealth,, populatio. commercial ho as a resi ities, has ob- bower. D. C. In dent of this and other served the conditions necessary to prom ise of growth, has, in the last issue of the Observer, these words to say of The Dalles: Considerable is said aboat the possi bilities of growth at The Dalles in the near future. With a country back it surpassing rich in natural resources, yet in the experimental stage of develop ment; with a water power superior to Minneapolis, we expect The Dalles to develop more within the next decade than Minneapolis has since 1860. All it needs is liberal views, fraternization and consistency. PERSONAL MENTION. Mr. Charles Adams of Tygh Valley is in the city. F. H. Rowe of Lyle was in the city this morning. Hon.'
