We do not say that "delft ware is not
as pretty as aluminum ware," but leave
that to our customers to judge for them
selves. We do say that it will wear
three or four times as long, is easier
kept clean, will weigh only a third as
much as granite, and is the cheapest in
the end. Mays & Ckowe.
The lecture by Professor Cooper, the
blind phrenologist, given at the Baldwin
opera houBe last evening, was quite well
attended and very interesting. The
lecturer thoroughly understands his
subject, aud has the happy faculty of
interesting his audiences in his subjects.
The lectures are free, and those who go
to hear him will find that he presents
the subject of phrenology in a different
light from that in which they have ever
before viewed it.
A few days ago a man with 60 many
names that anything will fit him, hired
a team and hack in Rufus aud proceeded
at once to sell them. With tho proceeds
he came to The Dalles and picked up a
pneumatic widow named Newsome, and
with her and her progeny, took paesage
on the boat for Portland. His plunder
was marked for Rossland. A warrant
was sworn out for his arrest, and a tele
gram sent to Portland this morning, but
tho officers there have failed to locate
him.
The house refused by a very decided
majority to accept the senate amend
ment to the sundry civil bill. This
amendment provided for revoking Presi
dent Cleveland's forestry reserve order,
and Indicates that the reserves are to be
maintained. A little light from the de
partment of the interior would now be
very acceptable. Our congressmen say
they think there will be no more prose
cutions ; but that is a rather slender
reed on which to lean. If the depart
ment would say whether eheep were to
be permitted on the range or not, it
would be doing not only its duty, but
would give evidence of good faith.
The Weekly Oregonian, containing

ers of this section. We have made a
special clubbing rate with it, and will
furnish the twice-a-week Chkonicjk

We wish to call especial attention to
the lots in The Dalles military Addition
advertised in thiB issue. They are very
desirable in every respect. yNo expense
of grading, piping, and sewerage easily
established with Ecarcejy no expense.
Their location iB jf admirable, is
high enough for drainage and low
enough for plenty of water pressure to
take it upstairs. They will be sold at
half their value, ahd there is no better
time for one to Supply himself with a
cheap and desirable home.
The Moro Observer thinks high water
is coming as in 1891. We cannot agree
with it, though the river may crowd up
toward the 50-foot stage. The reports
this morning from up-river points show
the Snake down nearly seven feet, but
at a stand. The upper Columbia isj ris
ing, and will probably continue to do so
steadily and rapidly until its greatest
height is reached. The weather on the
upper Columbia and around the head ot
the Snake is unusually warm, and the
Columbia here will begin to feel the ef
fects of it tomorrow. The riee should
be four feet by Sunday night.
