Besido a double male quartet, a large chorus of of mixed voices will furnish govern) selections. Those who have been asked to aid in this chorus should consider it a privilege to do so. The ministers nro not thfe ouly ones who are being kept busy in the matri monial market these days, although they have been doing u land office busi ness. Justice Filloon, determined not to be outdone, Tuesday tied the knot which united In marriage Win. A. Doyle and Alice Spoonemore. Tuesday evening during the time of the social given by the ladies of the Christian church, Lee Buskirk and an other boy were coming down the stairB leading to the basement. The boy un intentionally gave Lee a push, which caused him to fall down the stairway, breiikiug his collar bone. Dr. Kshel ltian was at once called uud reduced the fracture. Herman Naylor was oriested yesterday morning, having forged a check for $5. He uavo the check to Jordon, who after ward wus going to pay it to Joe Parodi. However, the latter being tomew.uat auspicious as to the way it was made out, refused to accept it. Naylor then took it, saying he would make out an other, but instead tore it up and refused to pay the amount. Accordingly ho was arrested. R. O. .Judson, who whs the prime mover in the Wool-Growers' Associa tion which was held here, is now busily engaged in planning a convention of farmers, which will bo held in Astoria on July 20!h and 21st, principally in tho interest of dairymen. Invitations will be sent to every farmer in Oregon nnd Washington, and tlmm who know Mr, Judson aie assured of its success. Kvery day numbers of people from California nro arriving m Portland, driven thero by the drouth.. A gentle man from Southern California, speaking of their coming, said : "People up hero in emerald Oregon can form no idea of what a lurfitilo southern drouth means, and the snffcting and impoverishments which it InfKrib on people. I ehall sell my Southern California place and buy (r small farm in Oregon." v If anyone lias an idea that The Dalles is not all right in a business way, they will soon change their minds by visiting the different warehouses whero wool is daily arriving, and then watching tho teams going out loaded down with supplies. Then call nt the commission houses nnd see how much fruit is shipped, not speaking of the other ship ments made, and if The Dalles Is not all right, whero do you find n place that is? The annual convention of Christian churches of this state begins this morn ing :it Turner, near Salem, and will con tinue until July -ith. Rev. Boltz and wife.ol tho Christian church of this city, went down on the boat yesterday morning to be in attendance at the opening sessions, and will bo absent from the city for about two weeks, dur ing which time the Sunday evening ser vices at the Christian church wijl be dispensed with. The Good Intent Society, which met with Mrs. D. M. French yesterday after noon, was pnrticulariy favored by hav ing with them Mrs. Hoxter, of the Portland Refuge Home, who gave n most interesting talk concerning the the work of that institution. Those who hea-d Mrs. Hoxter speak at the Metho dist church one evening last winter, were deeply impressed with the work tliie institution is doing, and have, Eiuce that time, felt more than a passing in terest in its welfare. Wednesday's weather report says: "The Snake river eIiowb a marked fall this morning. The Columbia remains stationary. Cool weather continues over the entire Columbia river basin. The upper rivers will continue to tail slowly. Tho fall will be observable at Umatilla Thursday, at The Dalles Fri day, nnd west of the Cascades on Satur day. The fall will not be rapid but will be continuous. There is absolutely no danger of a further rise." It is authoritively stated that on a new quarts location on Willow Creek, four miles above Malheur City, three men have pounded out daily from thirty to fifty dollnrs iu gold with hand mortars and in the past twelve days have taken out a total of sixteen hundred dollars. This bonanza rivals the Great Northern mine at Canyon City. It is said that the ledge Is two feet in width and be tween well defined wallB. There is a widespread excitement over this find of yellow metal and mining men of long experience who have seen the property are emphatic in asserting that a lasting and prolific quartz mine has been un-( covered. Much is said in the Oregonian con cerning Oregon's Official Roster, dedi cated to tho Second Regiment, Oregon Yolunteer Infantry, and compiled by Amelie do F. Smith, of Portland. In looking over a copy last evening, we find it to bo a very valuable little souve nir; especially w ill it be so in after years when, ninvhnp, many, the likeness cf whose faces can be found therein, and whose signatures also appear, have giver, their lives for their country. It is ne'.itly gotten up and bound together with Manila hemp. As we turned over the rmues of the roster we could not help feeling a pride that it contained so many familiar signatures. The Pendleton Tribune says: "It iu said that the wheat fields in tho vicini ty of Sand Hollow are beginning to show eflects of what is snpposed to bo the Hessian fly. The heads of tho wheat turn white and the grains wither away. These white heads can be teen in largo numbers, but so far they are not enough to eil'ect the yield. The fly is supposed to luy an egg in tho joint of the stock, which hutches into a worm that destroys the plant. Tho insect has oeen known in tho county for several years', but the injuries have not been great enough to cause much uttention, and no one has made an exact study of tho parasite."

Inll 1'flnpte Pavnrccl In Thin lltgard Ntiiiirrou I'lncon for an On tin jr. Dalles people do int fully appreciate their advantages as regards summer outings. Few peoplu nro so situated that they have tho choice of such varied means of enjoying their vacations. Around us on every hand aro mountain streams flowing through the most beau tiful vnlloys, just tho Ideal place to pitch a tent nnd take up an abode for n few days. Or to the northwest is Mt. Adams, wiiero not ulmie can tho beauty of tho scenery bo enjoyed, but Trout lake, near by, furnishes hid pie sport for nim rods, nnd the berry patches nil the fruit one would desire. Many take advantage of tills latter fact to prepare berries for winter use. Then to the south of us is grand old Mt. Hood, whirli, from the fact that good accommodations are furnished nt the inn, makes it grow to be moro popu lnr every year ns a lesort. For business men, who wish their families to bo in close proximity, where they can spend tho Sabbath with them, Model Springs, Cascade Lucks, Hood River, Collins' Lundmg, Jewett's, nnd numberless places nlomr the river, fur nish the very spots to go for an outing. Then, too, how fortunate we nro in being bo near tho seaside, and in having thrco different resorts of this nature from which to make a choice. Fares are so cheap to either of these places that most any of our citizens can spend n portion of the summer enjoying the ocean breezes nnd bathing in the surf. These mentioned are not the only places were an outing can be enjoyed, but they arc too numerous to enumerate. Truly we are a favored people in this regard, and none should take up the winter's work without having improved these opportunities to refresli themselves and become rested. Suilley's Gliost. Ghosts, hobgoblins and such uncanny specimens are usually supposed to fre quent old manses or haunted houses and like spookey places; nor would we think of discovering or encountering one of these unwelcome visitors in u new school building, especially in broad daylight. However, such was the case yesterday afternoon at the new building on tho hill, when one of the workmen came near losing his life from fright. Being sent down to clean out one of the duct9 in the basement, which had al ready been covered with wood, prepara tory to giving it a cement covering, lie found himself in utter darkness, and what was hit horror to also find that he was not the only occupant of the duct, but in tho other end loomed up a ghast ly figure with white winia. Soon his fellow workmen saw him "bob up se renely from below" with a horrified ex pression and shaking from head to foot. As soon as he could speak he made known his awful situation, nnd although assured that it must be hia imagination, no spirits being allowed on the ground, he flatly refused to re-enter. After much discussion, one bravo workman, armed with n six-shooter, ventured cautiously in. Creeping steal thily up like a nigger ton hen roost, what did he behold but a poor, litrlo white chicken, flapping its wings for want of breath, and with apparently no "fowl" intent. And yet Smiley declares that he is not chicken-hearted. Your summer's vacation will be in complete without one of our Magazine Cyclone cameras. Anyone can operate it.
