Some residents in the neighborhood of
St. Mary's Academy complain again

The enterprise of the Seufert-Condon
Telephone Company was never better
demonstrated than just after the recent
fire. Scarcely had the flames been sub
dued until they had a crew of men on the
ground digging holes, re-setticg poles
and stretching wire. So rapidly did
they rush the work that all the damage
done was repaired last night and ths ex
change is once more in perfect working

mit that L. C. Crow of Palouse, wha is
a candidate for the congressional nomi

Yesterday Mrs. D. A. Sturgess, of
Mo sier, brought in a sample of a new
variety of prunes, known as the "Ten
ant," Abot three years ago they se
cured one of the trees as an experiment,
and they find that this variety is su
perior even to the Italian prune, since it
ripens earlier and' will remain on the
tree longer than the other varieties.
Mrs. Sturgess informs us that ' last sea
son some of the Tenant prunes were on
the trees in good condition in the latter I
part of September. In a short time
they will experiment in evaporating the
prunes, and if they prove a success they
will put out a large number of trees of
variety.

THE ARKANSAW TRAVELER, JR.
T. Allen McQoary Arrives in the City
on His Strange Mission Around the
World for an Arkanaaw Girl
and S5000 OO.
List evening a large throng gathered
on Second street in front of Daut's op
tical parlors to listen to the youth, T;
Allen McQaary, which the St. Louis
Globe-Democrat has termed "the Mis
souri Don Quixote," who arrived in this
city Monday cn his way around the
world for ,$5000 and a bride, the daugh
ter of a rich Southern planter.
It appears that McQuary fell desper
ately in love with the young lady and
as the feeling wns mutual they desired
to be married immediately. The old
gentleman objeced and finally as a bluff
offered McQuary his daughter and $5000
if he would make the trip around the
world front east to west Btartmg penni
less in Missouri on May 19, 1897, and re
turning 18 months later, having made
the trip on horseback and by water, and
forcing him to make the expenses of the
trip on his way.
McQuary'a history of his experiences
as told in the little book which he sells
alter his lectures is an interesting one
and too long to publish here, while his
lectures are interesting'and instructive.
Mr. McQuary will lecture again this
evening and has chosen The Dalles as
the place where he will secure a hor6e
and begin bis long ride to Missouri and
has no doubt that he will be able to
reach his destination by the date which
is set for his arrival October 19th of this
year. The young globe trotter is about
24 years of age, of pleasing appearance
and an interesting talker. He is accord
ing to the contract dressed in the garb
of a knight of the Sixteenth century
and carries with him records and docu
ments sufficient to convince the most
ekeptical that he is not a fake.

Notice to Delinquent Taxpayers.
The delinqent taxes of Wasco county,
as shown on the rolls now in the hands
of the sheriff are f 60, 000, an amount al
most equal to the indebtedness of the
count'. Every citizen will doubtless
admit that this state of affairs should
not exist, and that all tasea should be i
collected. " On account of hard times
in the past the county court Las shown
leniency to taxpayers, but that leniency
has reached the limit, and the court.
cannot wait longer on delinquents to
make settlements. ' For this reason a
warrant has been attached to each de
linquent roll commanding the sheriff to
collect all taxes by seizure and sale of
property. With a bountiful clop now
in sight, there can no longer be any rea
sonable excuse for the non-payment of
taxes: The sheriff is bound by oath to
comply with the terms of the warrants
attached to the tax rolls for the collec
tion thereof, and has no option in the
matter. Delinquent taxpayers can save
the cost of seizure an l sale of property
by settliog their taxes at once.
Robert Kekly, .
Sheriff and Tax Collector for Wasco
County.
