though among them are some of good

markets.
The people of The Dalles will have an
opportunity this evening to witness a
theatrical performance of high grade.
Miss Ellsler and her company are actors
and actresses of recognized ability. They

Telegram speak in high terms.

The engagement of that bright and
intelligent actress, Effie Ellsler, com
mences at the Baldwin tonight. Miss
Ellsler's visit to the city is a dramatic
episode highly valued by our playgoers,
for a more conscientious and thorough
artist cannot be found on the stage to
day, and her supporting company never
retrogrades from the excellent standard
of that which has ever constituted her
support. Tonight Miss Ellsler will be
seen in Alexander Dumas' "Camille,"
and tomorrow night in a magnificent
production of Skakespeare's "As You
Like It." A prominent addition to the
company is Mr. John A. Ellsler, . who
will direct the performances. Mr.
Frank Weston will also appear in both
bills.
In arranging a schedule embracing - o
many dates as are in the lecture course,
it was impossible but that some changes
would occur making a necessity for re
adjustment. Such a change is necessary
ou the next date printed on the season
tickets, Feb. 4th. The lecture for that
evening, will have to be postponed un
til the 18th. The following lecture will
be given on the 25th. The remaining
ones we hope will take place on the dates
as given on the tickets.
The dispatches yeeterday say that
Senator Mitchell has introduced a bill
appropriating $5000, in addition to the
amount already appropriated, for the
construction and equipment of a boat
railway between The Dalles and Celilo.
There must be some mistake in the
figures quoted, as $5000 would be a mere
bagatelle in a work of this magnitude
not a sufficient sum to occupy the atten
tion of the senate long. It is probable
that $50,000 is the amount asked for.
The surveys have already been made by
the engineering corps, and whatever
amount now appropriated would be for
'the actual work of construction. The
bill, which we assume is for a larger
amount, will not pass without strong op
position, and the Oregon delegation will
have an opportunity of showing what
influence it possesses in the halls of
congress.
The taxpayers should keep in mind
the school meeting tomorrow afternoon
at 2 o'clock in the Court street school
house. This meeting will be one of the
most important ever held in the district
and it should be the. understood duty of
every taxpayer to be present. Retrench
ment is the cry all over the state, and
while strict economy should be used, the
district should not be niggardly in pro
viding for its schools. The project of
building a new school bouse should be
calmly and carefully considered and if it
is decided to build, the tax should be
cheerfully voted. Above all things let
the taxpayers of the district be well
represented and an opportunity be given
for a free expression of opinion. The
public schools of this city are her pride,
and the only question to be considered
is how to increase their efficiency with
the least inconvenience to the tax
payers. The contract for. building'the bowling
alley in the Commercial and Athletic
Club, was awarded yesterday to Mr.
Hugh Glenn. The plans and specifica
tions, which were prepared by an archi
tect in Portland, provide for the building
of a double alley similar to that In the
Multnomah Athletic Club. Work will
not be begun until next week, as the
materials are yet to be selected. The
brick wall near which the allev is to be
built received a thorough soaking at the
time of the fire last summer, and still
contains a great deal of moisture, which
has caused a great deal of.inc'onvenience
in the re-fitting of the building. For
this reason the alley could not have been
begun sooner. Those wh6 have exam
ined the plans and wbo have inspected
the alley 'at the Multnomah c'ub, a"nd
who are competent to judge, say that
the alley, when done, will be complete
in every particular, and the members of
the club will have every opportunity for
becoming good bowlers.
To Exterminate the San Jose Scale.
Mr. Emil Schanno, who is a member
of the State Board of Horticulture, has
been investigating the subject of a means
to exterminate the San Jose scale and
aphis. This inquiry has led to the be
lief that the remedy printed below will
prove efficacious in destroying this
enemy of the fruit men. The wash is a
preparation to be used in winter time,
and it should be applied during the
next two montheThe formula is as
follows:
The following formulae and directions
if properly carried out, will produce an
effective solution for San Jose scale and
aphis.
50 lbs. Lime.
50 lbs. Sulpher.
50 lbs. of Stock Salt.
This will make 150 gallons of wash.
Directions Slack 25 lbs. of lime, then
add the 50 lbs, of sulpher, boil it over a
brisk fire for one hour, then slack the
remaining 25 lbs. of lime, then place all
the salt with it in the boiler and boil for
fifteen minutes more, then add the nec
essary amount of water to make 150 gal
lone. This solution should be used at a tem
perature of at least 100 degrees. Before
UBing strain it. This is an excellent
winter wash for fruit trees.
The utility of this wash depends a
great deal upon the strength of the sul
phur. It is therefore recommended that
those who use this wash have a Beau
mes scale for acid. When it shows eight
degrees when cold, it is of the proper
strength. These scales can be obtained
through any druggists, at a cost not to
exceed fifty cents.
