Yesterday we learned from Peter
Stroller who lives a short dietance from
Floy da on 5-mile that in digging a -well

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.

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

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

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

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.

GRADUATING EXERCISES.
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-

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.
