Judge Bradsbaw acted as Grand Chan
cellor and performed the ceremony of
dedication. The ritualistic services were
very pretty and the response from each
station was couched in beautiful Ian-!
guage and expressed lofty sentiments
The speeches by the different officers
were delivered in an impressive manner
After the proclamation of dedication
the audience was treated to an orches
tral rendition, beautifully played by
Prof. Birgfeld, Mr. Long, Mr. Peterson
and Miss Newman.
Chancellor Commander Crowe then
introduced Hon. John Michell, who de
livered an appropriate address, explain-
ng tbe aims of Pythianism and tracing
he history of the order since its foun
ation in Washington City in 1864. The
dress of Mr. Michell was listened to
with marked attention and was an effort
well worthy of the speaker.
A solo by Mr. Will Crossen delighted
the audience and the young gentleman
who possesses, a fina . Toice, was com'

Mrs. Huntington, who is our queen of

and the floor made ready for dancing.
This charming amusement was kept up
till a late hour. The evening was de
lightful in all its portions.
The elegance of the new hall called
forth unstinted praise from all who were
present last evening. The Dalles can
well be' proud of the Knights of Pythias
lodge and their new home, which
through the enterprise of Mr. Vogt,
they have succeeded in obtaining. A
description would not do it justice. It
is enough to say that it is tbe finest hall
which the order possesses in the state,
outside of Portland. The lodge in this
city is prospering, as it deserves to,
since-the principles upon which the
order is founded are attributes of the
divine.

The Oregon Fruit union has this year
identified itself with and become a part
of the American Fruit Grower's Asso
ciation, an association formed to pro
mote the selling price of fruit wherever
possible by its evpri distribution. The
president ot the Oregon Fruit Union,
Mr. Willis Brown, is the secretary. of
of the larger organization, and among
the latter's vice presidents are some of
the largeet individual growers in Amer
ica. Some of these are Dr. Blalock of
Walla Walla, Dr. Card well of Portland
and J. Sterling Morton of Lincoln, Neb.
The American Fruit Growers Union
is the largest organization of the kind
ever perfected, and is four years old.
It was born in Chicago from a conven
tion ot smaller organizations and is pri
marily for the purpose of protecting the
producer in any way possible. It can
do good in various ways. Besides effect
ing a proper distribution of fruit, the
objects of tbe Union are to secure the
best transportation service, lowest rates,
and prevent unjust discrimination
against the different fruit growing sec
tions on the part of the common carrier.
,To secire favorable legislation, both
"local and national. To improve the
method of packing.
The Oregon Fruit Union ha9 prepared
a statement of the average net returns
received by patrons through their agency
last summer.
From the gross eale of the fruit is de
ducted erery charge connected with the
selling of the fruit, freight, boxes and
paper. The actual average, therefore,
paid shippers was : Hungarian prunes,
32ctiper crate; Italians, 2G cts per
crate; Italians, 28 cts per box; Peach
plnms, 13) cts per crate; Silvers, 16
cts per crate; miscellaneous plums, -13
cts per crate;'-pears, 20 cts per box.
The company has arranged for a good
warehouse at The Dalles. Mr. Pinkham
is tbe agent here, his office at the Johns
Lumbering Co.
The Earl Fruit Union is also repre
sented this season and will have an
agent here.
