On account oi the few who are aware of the fact, it is not expected that much of a turnout will take place. Parties from the interior state that a j splendid shower of rain fell at a radiup I of ubont eight miles south of Tbe Dalles. The shower lasted about one half hour and was barely enough to thoroughly soak the dry soil. Wo hope to hear of a few more like showers before harvest, f The old Catiiolic church in this city, which has been a landmark since it was dedicated by Father Mesplie in 1SG1, will soon be removed. The material in the old building 'has been purchased by a party at Stevenson, Wash., where it will be shipped as soon as it is taken to pieces. Yesterday we learned from Peter Stroller who lives a short dietance from Floy da on 5-mile that in digging a -well on his place lie struck a vein of soft water at the depth of twenty-four feet. The water resembles rain water very much. At present there are about three feet of water in the well. Mr. Stroller cannot account for the strange strike. V. II.

Hood river strawberry pickers are finding great difliculty in obtaining pickers, and there is danger that a great portion of a splendid crop will rot before the limited number of men, women and children now in the fields can pick them. People who really wish to work can get their fare to Hood River reduced materially uow. Pickers at present rates can make from 1.50to!f2 a day at Hood River until the last of June. Hood River growers are ex pressing most of their berries to Mon tana and othor interior points, where a good price, is paid for them.

Some 25,000 crates will probably be Bhipped to inter ior Northwest points this season. Some weeks ago D, P. Ketchnm, a stock buyer of this city, contracted with S. B. Barker of Fossil, for 0,000 head of sheep, consisting of 3,000 yearlings and 3,000 two-year-old wethers. The price agreed upon waB $2.50 for the yearlings and $2,90 for two-year-olds, and a pay ment of $1,500 was made to bind the bargain. Since that time the price of sheep has fallen to such an extent that Mr. Ketchum decided to forfeit money advanced rather than take the run through onfUhegyJaThe sheep sold was from the Kelly, of thiBlTands of S. B. Barker, Lewis Barker 1 I ft erase V1 PEASE & MAYS. and J. M. Cameron, and these gent'e men are now making arrangements to trail the sheep to an eastern market. The sheep will be in charge of Lewis Barker, J. M. Cameron, Elgin Myers and Lewis Couture, and will be started on their long journey in a few days. Mrs. Katharine O'Conner, aged about 30, died at her home at 1410 Malion ave nue, Spokane, on last Monday evening. The remains were shipped over the O. R. & N. to Grants, and thence to Cen terville, where the funeral services were held. The latter were conducted by Rev. N. Evans, of Goldendale, in the presence of tbe largest audience ever assembled at a funeral, for tbe deceased was loved and admired by the people of that Bection almost beyond comprehen sion. She was married last September to Daniel O'Connor, Jr., and made Spo kane their home. At a recent meeting of Temple Lodge, No. 3, A. O. U. W., of this city, a reso lution was unanimously adopted pledg ing to all members of the lodge who de sire to enlist in tbe army during the present war with Spain, that the lodge will pay their dues and assessments dur ing such enlistment. This was a truly patriotic move, especiall as the lodge pays a beneficiary of $2000 on each death, and should any member fall in battle, besides having his dues and as sessments paid by the local lodge, the grand lodge would be called upou to pay the amount of his beneficiary.

Degree Conferred on tho Clatft of 'AS of tho Dalle High School. A packed houpo witnessed the gradu ating exercises of tho class from the High school at the Vogt last evening, and it has never been our good fortune to witness a bettor arranged or more en tertaining commencement exercise. Tho stage was literalty strewn with flowers and evergreens, whllo the front of it was gaily draped with cerese and white, the class colors. On the left of the stage the beautiful silk flag belong ing to Co. G, O. N, G., was suspended, while fifteen graduates formed a semi circle towards the rear ot the stage. The young ladies in the class wero at tired in white organdie, and, if possible, they looked more beautiful than ever before as they performed their respective parts on the ocasion. Not to speak of the neat manner in which the yountr men were dressed, would be an over sight and show partiality. The Jubel overture by Miss Georgia Sampson and Professor Birgfeld was the opening selection. During the render ing of this beautiful duet the strains of "America" were introduced, at which all immediately rose to their feet, and at tbe conclusion tbe applause was deaf ening. Miss Elizabeth Bonn in her rendition of the eisay on the "True Aim of Poet ry" held her audience spell-bound. Her subject was ably handled, and by her rendition she won laurels as an orator as well as a composer. Ira B. Pruyne had for his subject "Every Man Builds Himself." His essay was well rendered, and in its com position it showed marks of diligence and application. "Life's Lullaby" was'sung in a charm ing manner by Miss Harriet Cram. The fact that she has n remarkably sweet voice was demonstrated beyond doubt last evening. Miss Violet Kent showed rare-genius in her composition of the difficult sub ject "Man ; 'In Form and Moving How Express.' " She has a strong, penetrat ing voice, and every word of her essay could be heard distinctly by everyone. Miss Edythe M. Randall's essay on the subject "Nothing is Lost," which was handled in a scientific manner, showed that the young lady is tho pos sessor of a rich and varied store of knowledge. "The Importance of Explorations," which subject was handled with a mas ter hand by Miss Ann Mann, was a splendid example of the ability and learning of the young graduates. A piano solo, "Polacca Brilliante," by Miss Florence Hilton followed. She has a fine touch, and her execution is re markable. Rudy B. Cradlebaugh had for his sub ject "The Obligations of Citizens," and for one so young he displayed a splendid knowledge of politics and political econ omy, lie also snowed great talent in its construction. Mies Alice M. Ball, in the subject The Development of Literature," proved that in The Dolles public schools she has obtained a knowledge of English and American literature that many might well envy. Miss Bertha Del! Hill spoke on "Franklin; His Affability." She paid not only a tribute to Franklie in her essay, but oy its composition anu ren- He oieveiaaa Has tae Burwell detachable Tire, Tho best thing yet. Hasn't a single drawback. Tho weight of the BURWELL TIKE Is less than thut of any oth er detachable tiro uow on the market. Ladies' and Gents' Ulheels for Rent. Wheels Repaired. ditlon paid an equally flattering tribute to herself. The next number was a vocal solo by Mies Georgia Sampson. In this she plainly demonstrated that she had not only given her time to the study of arts aud sciences taught in her altnn mater, but also looked to tho cultivation of a splendid voice. Tho next subject discussed was that of "Tho American Girl" by Miss Josephine H. Jenkins. Tho subject was well fitted to her and handled in a charming man ner. Charles L. Campbell, who is probably tho orator of the class of '08, discussed at length tbe subject, "Our National Advancement." His essay demanded many historical utterances, and by the abundance of tiie same ho gave an idea of his thorough knowledge of our country's history. Prior to the conferring of degrees, Clarence and Maud Gilbert' entertained the audience by a piano and violin selec tion, "The Coquette " Tho presentation of diplomas was mado by Principal J. S. Landers who, before conferring the degrees congratu lated each and every member of the class of 'OS. After the presentation, Profeesor Landers explained that the two diplomaB which were not conferred were for the two brave lads, Max J. Bar tell and Walter T. Dickey, who left their homes and echool to answer their coun try's' call for aid in these troubled times, and who were at present speeding over the waves to Manila. Speaking had been left optional with each member of the class, and the fol lowing withdrew in order to give more time to those who took part. National Monuments (Max J.

The pragram was to have been con cluded by a song bv Prof. Lundell, but as he was suffering from a severe attack of sore throat he could not appear, aud instead of this number, at Prof. Landers request, the audience rose and sang "America." TChuopIng Cough. I had a little boy who was nearly dead from an attack of wiiooping cough. My neighbors recommended Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
