Teamsters report that the roads be tween this place and Dufur, are at pree ent almost impassible and are getting worse daily on account of the large amount of hauling that is beinir done over them at present. Next Friday the public schools of the city will close, and probability is that all the business houses will do the same.

A large crowd attended the repetition of "Pinafore" last night, and several ex pressed the opinion that, if possible, the rendition was better than on Satur day night. The ladies of the Guild will realize about $175 as the net proceeds, and are delighted with the success of the venture. At the close of the opera refreshments were served by the ladies to those taking part, and a general good time was had. ' Th ia mornirfg Mr. Whealdon received a large American flag, which was be queathed to him by the will of the sister of Linas Hubbard, a kindly old gentle man who used to reside in The Dalles several years ago, and who was one Mr. Whealdon's warmest friende It was one of the stipulations of the will that the flag be sent to Mr. Whealdon, and it arriyed this morning.

Refreshments were served and toasts were offered and re sponded tO by J. F.

Mr. ai.d Mrs. Gibbons will leave in a few davs for their farm on the Sandy, near Portland ture home. The farm residence of James Patterson, two miles east of Elgin, was totally de stroyed by fire about 11 o'clock Sunday. No one was at home at the time hut Mrs. Patterson, and when neighbors ar rived on the scene, she informed them that she had purposely set fire to the buiding, says the Record. She Btarted for the river, with the avowed purpose of drowning herself, but was restrained hy neighbors. It is supposed that over- Work and domestic traubles had mantal Ijy deranged her for the time being. J An example of rapid increase in cattle ia furnished by G. L. Reese, a prosper ous farmer who lives near Albany. He old last Friday for $35 a cow and calf, the mother being Beven-eiehths Jersey. The cow is now not quito 3 years old, but she is a record-breaker as a money injury to to his head of such a serious nature that the physician called to at tend him had grave doubts about bis recovery. A leg of one of the footmen was broken. Efforts are being'made to secure a par don for George F. McConnell, formerly of Ashland, who was sentenced about a year ago to the Oregon penitentiary for embezzlement of fund9 belonging to the Grand Lodge Knights of Pythias of ?'regon, while.be was. holding the office f Keeper of Records and Seals, In Port- nd. McConnell's record during a ten- ears residence in Ashland was a very ean one, and there are said to be ex- nuating circumstances connected with s crime. He was sentenced to three years' penal servitude and was fortunate in being made a "trusty" in the peni tentiary at Salem, which will reduce his time one-balf, making his term expire about August of the coming year. The efforts at securing a pardon are with the intention of restoring him to citi zenship when his liberation takes place . State Fair Did Not 1'ay. A dispatch from Salem to the Orego nian says : It is a source of regret to friends and creditors of the state fair that the man agement is not able to meet all the ex penses Incurred. The exact amount of leceipts and "expenditures has . not yet. been ascertained, but the receipts are estimated at $10,000, and the outstand, ing claims for whicn there are no funds to meet at $2700. Of the latter amount, part is for last year's unpaid expenses, and $1500 for this year's. It is conceded that such an attendance as the fair had this year, and so large a deficit, will make a poor showing to the legislature if the present annual $5000 apppropria tion is to be maintained. There is some talk of members of the board making up the deficiency for this year, but no ac tion has yet been taken in the matter. Klickitat Cay uses for the North. Attorney N. B. Brooks, of Goldendale, has received. a communication from an Alaska horse buyer, who wants to secure 100 head of mustangs sufficiently broken to be placed on the Lake Teslin trail, via Stickeen River route.

In the second heat Hero broke seyeral times, and lost ground in eo doing. The heat was won by Kisbar, with Dick Trumbull second.
