The weather is cold here, but we can
not complain on that account, for the
same condition prevails all over the
country west of the Mississippi. Mon
tana seems to be the center of the cold
region, the wave rolling away in all di
rections. According to the wether bu
reau, the cold snap is to continue for
some time. It wa9 not unexpected here,
but as usual got its work in bv bursting
exposed water pipes, and doing all kinds
of mischief. - - -
"Work is being pushed on the big irriJ
gating ditch at Hood River, and it is ex
pected that it wiil be ready to furnish
water by the last of May. The big
flume crosses the river about a mile be
low its head, and the bridge to carry it
was completed Saturday. There re
mains about three miles of flume to be
built, the balance being ditch. Work is
being done on this, and it will probably
be completed before the flume is. The
ditch will carry about 4,000 inches of,
water, irrigating 15,000 acreB.
Juck'Frost was out again last night

beautiful Bpecirahns of his artistic work

he painted a beautiful mountain scene,
the peaks rising above one another, and
covered with heavy timber. On one of
Harris' windows though he left his master-piece.
It is the top window next to
John, C. Hertz place, aud on it is a per
fect bush, the stalks and leaves being
true to nature. It would be impossible
to describe it, but it was the prettiest
thing of the kind we ever jsaw.,

The rooms at present occupied by him
will be used by Pease & Mays for their
grocery department. Carpenters and
masons are at work under the direction
of 0. J. Crandall, remodeling the
shelving in the Pease & Mays store, and
will, as soon as Mr. Borden finishes
moving, cut an archway through be

pleted, Pease & Mays store will be one

Mr. J. M. Cockerline has completed
the ditch from 15-Mile creek to his mill
at Boyd, and now has ono of the finest
water powers in the country. The ditch
is a mile aud a half long, tiye feet wide
oti the bottom, and carries at present
two feet, in depth, of water. At the
mill he has obtained a fall of sixty feet,
nnd is thus insured abundant power.
Heretofore he has been compelled to let
the water accumulate and then run the
mill on this gathered head. The in
creased fall obviates all this and fur
niehee power enough to run the mill
steadily, with some to spare.
"Love is not what it used to be,'' so
sings the poet. Well, perhaps the poet
is right, for love has, no doubt,
changed, as have a great many other
things. But there is one thing in par

tively remains tte same, and that is the

TeaehuiH' Institute at Ilufur.
The good people of Dufur and vicinity

local teachers institute, held in Dufur on
the evening o. the 21st and during the
flay and evening of the 22d inst. Supt.
,C. L. Gilbert was present, arttl in his
graceful, earnest and thorough way pre
sided. During the first evening A. J. Brigh
am, Dr. Dietrich, T. II. Johtitton aud J.
E. Conner addressed the large audience
on the subject of education. Justice
Brigham stirred up a hornet's nest by
alleging that moral culture necessarily
must be given by parents. Mr. John
ston caused an audible smile by saying
that he had been compelled, by lack of
education, to hold subordinate positions
to those who were his inferiors physi
cally, mentally and morally ; but either
his grit or cheek enabled him to survive.
It was quite evident from the remurke
that the wide awuke, energetic people of
Dufur are far from eatiefied with their
old and inadequate schoolhouse, and

Special attention to the importance of

During the next day quite a number
of visitors enlivened and cheered the

greeted the perfoimers on Friday even

inspiring strains of music, to recitations,
ranging from the very grave to the most
ludicroue, readings, both sad and gay ;
an address, contrasting results under the
old Btyle of rude log cabins, severe school
masters and crude text, with results ob
tained under the new style of well-furnished
houses, affable school teachers
and superior textbooks; and lastly to

With this pump one man can charge

The house which greeted Miss Gris
wold last night at the Vot was not such,
in numbers, as her high elocutionary
powers should warrant; but those who
attended were mostly lovers of the art,
and therefore fully appreciated the op
portunity to hear her. They were not
disappointed, but enjoyed every num
ber; those showing the most talent, ns
well as careful training and study beini;
"Tho Last Ride," Poe's "Kaven" und
"Robert o'Lincoln." Her conception of
"Tho Raven" was somewhat different
than is generally given, but seemed to
meet the approval of tho audience,
which was spell-bound ; while her bird
imitation in "Robert o'Lincoln" was so
plensing as to call forth a storm of ap
plause. Her grace and enee on the
stage were particularly noticable, and so
well did her gestures weavo themselves
into each recitation, that the prominence
which is often given them was avoided.
The music of the evening gave the
program a pleasing vuriation, the piano
solos of Miss Georgia Sum peon being
so well executed as to have done credit
to professional performers. The two
solos "Love's Old, Sweet Song" and
"Time of Apple Blosroms," by Mr.
Chas. Clarke wero very pretty. Charlie
has a fine voice, and with training will
make an exceptionally good singer.
