One carload of sheep was fed at the
stock yards last night.
There will be no meeting of Rathbone
Bisters this evening. Hereafter the
temple will meet the first and third
Thursdays of each month.
The wool market is a trifle dull, with
prices a trifle lower than a week ago.
There were a few sales yesterday at 10 to
cents, but the lots were email.
California wheat for the first time is
being shipped to Brazil, two ships being
now loading at San Francisco for Rio.
The cargoes will amount to more than
4000 tons.
It is ead news to many office-seekers
that congress is about to adjourn. Most
of those who are really on the anxious
seat must have their appointments con
firmed by the senate, and if there is no
office.
Quite a number of the Christian En
deavoiers arrive every evening on the
boat, and leave for home on the 1 o'clock
train. All are delighted with their trip
up the river, which will be one of their
most pleasant recollections.
By existing arrangements with the
publishers of the Weekly Oregonian, we
are enabled to club that excellent paper
with the Twice-a-Week Chronicle at
the low rate of $2.25 per year. Now is
the time to send in your names.

King, the young man arrested at
Baker City for running away with a girl
under the age of 16 years and taking ad-
. vantage of her, when arraigned Tuesday
entered a plea of guilty. The minimum
- penalty for the offense is three years in
the penitentiary, which King will surely
get.
A. F. Haynes has purchased a new 28
inch cylinder case separator and a trac
tion engine, which he will put at work
in the grain fields of the Tygh section.
Andrew Douglas has also purchased a
new tbreshing.outfit with traction en
gine. His separator has a 32-inch cyl
inder. Hon. W. R. Ellis, writing to a friend
here under date of July 15th, expresses
the opinion that "Congress will adjourn
in ten or twelve days." From this it
seems likely that as soon as the tariff
question, is settled congress will ad
journ. It is expected tbe Benate will take
action this week. ,
The latest flying machine has been
made by an inventor at Loa. Vegas, New
Mexico. The dispatches say that it flies
all right at night. Strange what
night birdst-these flying machines be.
If some fellow will make one that can
fly by day, he can secure a fortune in
the Clondyke passenger trade. .
The examination of Budd Robbins,
charged with larceny by bailee in keep
ing possassion of a horse belonging to
V. G. Spencer, was set for 2 o'clock this
afternoon. At that hour the defendant
was brought in, and E. B. Dufur ap
peared for him, filing an affidavit for a
continuance for the purpose of securing
a witness.
The membere of the hose team have
arranged for giving an entertainment
one week from Friday evening for the
purpose of raising money for the use of
the team in preparing for the tourna
ment. Members of the Commercial
Club minstrels have volunteered their
services, several ladies will assist with
vocal and instrumental music, and
others will take part. It will undoubt
edly be a very pleasant affair, and will
be, or at least should be, well patronized.
Roland D. Grant and party, consist
ing of twenty.-ona persons in all, ar
rived on the Baker last night, and, un
der the guidence - of Rev. O. D. Taylor,
are examining the points of interest
about our city. Among other things
they visited the Indian village of Wish
ram, on the other side of the river, and
amused themselves by banting arrow
heads. The party wa9 not expected
here until tomorrow, and Rev. Grant
was billed to lecture in the evening.
This part of the program will probably
be abandoned. - m ,.
The London Times of a recent date
says : "The prospects of the harvests in
Eastern Europe are disquieting indeed.
In Austria and Hungary and along the
whole line of the Danuble the harvest
will be bad. Immense tracts of corn
fields in Servia, Bulgaria and Roumania
have been laid under water by destruc
tive floods, and what water baa spared
rust has greatly injured. So bad, in
deed, is the prospect that Austria and
Hungary, instead 'of exporting wheat,
will have to import it. At any rate it is
clear that the wheat supply from the
Danube is likely to be exceedingly small,
if not altogether wanting, this season."
A child about 2 years old had a re
markable escape' last Sunday, near New
port, Wash. During the absence of its
mother, the child leaned out of the win
dow of the westbound Great Northern
train, and fell out on the track just as
its mother was returning. The train,
which was running about 25 miles an
hour, was stopped a mile further on, and
crew and passengers returned in search
of the lost one, the mother in the mean
time being almost distracted with grief.
The child had rolled down the embank
ment, but was found in the act of crawl
ing up to the track, crying lustily for its
mother. It was not injured except for a
slight scratch on the nose.

It had been expected that the cour

Dr. Siddall of this city. Mrs. W. F.
Hume, and T. Brooke White, ex-secretary
of the Mazamas, made thascent of
Monnt Hood from Cloud Cap Inn July
20th. The day was perfect and the trip
one of which the doctor will never tire
of telling, as be is perfectly delighted
with it. The start was made from the
Inn at 7 o'clock, and' the party arrived
at the summit at 1 :30, having etopped
just short of it to eat their lunch. The
climb from Cooper's spur was made in
three hours and thirty minutes. The
party was in charge of W. A. ..Langille,
manager of the Inn and one ot the most
careful as well as the most expert moun

Wheat is going np all over the world.
Dispatches from Liverpool show a rise
of three ' cents a bushel within the past
two days. At New York the market is
reported as strong, with prices at 78 to
78. At Chicago the price is 72, while
at San FranciEco it is given as 1.38 per
cental, or 82 cents a bushel. ' Reports
from Pendleton, where the harvest is in
full blast, say that some wheat had been
sold at 55, but that ir was now held at
60 i cents. Portland prices yesterday
were 65 for Eastern Oregon, 68 for valley.

e Lbsft by the Mazamas Mr. .Langille wrote
rne most pleasant ana easy ascent ot
Mount Hood ever made." Langille is a
man of 28, of powerful build and iron
constitution, keen of eye and sure of
foot, quick to grasp a situation and
quicker to act upon it, and absolutely
without fear tor inmself. He knows
the mountain as well as a mother knows
her baby, and apparently the mountain
knows and respects him. It is safe to
say that anyone making the ascent who
will place full reliance in bitn and dovas
he tells them, will make the trip to; the
summit of Mount Hood and back in per
fect safety.
A thousand feet of rope has been
laced alone the steepest part of the
to assist in climbing and guard
ainst accidents. In coming down is
ere tbe fun is, as all lie on their backs
the rope under one arm and alpen
stock under the same arm for a brake.
ThVo Langille starts the crowd down,
following them and checking their speed
when it becomes too great, by means of
a rope which he has tied to them. Dr.
Siddall, speaking from experience, ad
vises those who wear sweaters to pdt
them inside of their pants before start
ing down. 'He tried it the other way.
d the way that sweater scooped up tbe
snow and sent tbe ice-water permeating
his other garments was a terror. Tbe
trip is a delightful one, and no 'Oregon
ian can afford to miss it, for it is part of
our products. Eastern people can take
their choice, but they can be assured
that they will find something new under
the sun if they will climb Mount Hood,
and something that neither New York,
Boston nor Chicago can furnish them.
