WAYSIDE GLEANINGS.
A marriage license wass issued yester
day to John Mclsaac and Miss Etta A.

Dalles today. The raise in transporta
I tion rates between here and Portland
is affecting the price somewhat.
The doors will open at 7 :30 on Thnrs-4

McCabe's lecture will begin at 8 o'cloc
so that everyone will have an opport
tunitv to be seated before that famous
lecturer will begin.
It ia expected that the steamer Inland
Flyer will Thursday be put on the
run between this city and Portland. Her
machinery will then be in better condi-
tion than on her last trip and some fast JLaet evening Frank Sommera and H.

Under the most favorable weather
conditions ever experienced, the hop
crop of 1898 has been garnered. It
wa9 a profitable one for the picker, the
grower and the state. Pickers made
easy money ; growers saved their crops
without delay, and the state will re
ceive reputation for quality, for all the
crop was saved. Like all other pro
ducts, the grower was dieappointed
in point of yield.
There is not an Indian in the state eld
enough to recall a day when the Willam
ette river was lower than it is this slim
mer, Bays the Salem Statesman. There
is 6imply a huge rift in the valley where
the proud stream used to be. In the
bottom of this, jutit enough water is
running in a cramped channel to permit
the masters of the steamers Gypsy and
Pomona to laboriously find their way up
there from Portland and lower valley
points.
Theodore Meguet who has a farm on
Mill creek about four miles from this
city, brought in several boxes of fine
strawberries thia morning to the Dalles
Commission Co. Mr. Joseph Bonn in
the kindness of his heart presented the
Chronicle office with a box of the same
and they were pronounced delicious.
The strawberries are the second crop and
show plainly how prolific the soil of
Eastern Oregon is that will produce two
cropa of berries in one Beason.
William Rector, who was convicted as
an accomplice to the Ladd grave rob
bery, and sentenced to two years in the
penitentiary, was pardoned Saturday by
Governor Lord. He had completed
about one and a half years of his term
He was brought down from Salem two
weeks ago to testify in the Magone case,
and was held at the city jail until his
release Saturday. The pardon was
brought to Portland by A. N. Gilbert,
superintendent of the state penitentiary.

by acclamation. Ringing resolutions were
adopted favoring President McKinley's
policy in regard to the disposition of the
Philippines and termination of the peace
negotations with Spain. Senator George
Turner's recent assault on the admin
istration was branded as cowardly and
unpatrioitc. The platform also recom
mended the speedy completion of the
Nicaragua canal and commended the
recent decision of the supreme court with
populist law that is so obnoxious to the
business interests of the Btate.

held at the Umatilla House parlor this
morning for the purpose of appointing

days and saw in all two prairie chickens
which flew before they were within a
quarter of a mile of them, so that they
'eel somewhat discouraged at their bad
luck. Mr. Weggenman accompanied
them out returning Sunday. He lost a
splendid black and white setter in Pine
Hollow about four miles south of Dufur.
He informs us that the dog went into
the canyon where there was water and
failed to return. ,
I Two bowling teams, one consisting of
married women and the other of maid
ens, have been organized: among the
lady members of the chiK. The matrons
f.eam consists of the following ladies:
Mesdames. Geo. Blakfeley, Fred Hough

Bradshaw, and Th4o. Senfert, the latter
being captain. The young ladies will,
in all probability, have the following
bowlers in their team Misses A. Schan

Lang and Edna Glenn. As .yet they
have onlyyfive members, but before the
tonrnatnent, which will take place Fri
day evening, they will have a full team
and will be prepared to give the elder
ladies a merry game.
Last evening Mrs. Captain Waad re
turned from a business trip to Portland.
She informs us that she received a letter
from the captain a few days ago in
which he stated that he and Captain
M:chell Martino, who was formerly in
the employ of the D. P. & A. N. Co.,
are running the steamer Flora on the
Stikeen river. Captain Wand is of the
opinion that there will be an abundance
of provisions in Daweon this coming
winter; In less than two weeks over
three thousand head of beef cattle have
been shipped in. Transportation com
panies are at present doing a big buiness
and provisions are fifty per cent cheaper

the summer. Since he has been there
he ha9 been offered a position by the
Canadian government running one of
their steamers at higher wages than be

panied by four other Oregon boys, C. A.

confirms the many reports of the poor
treatment the privates received on the
trip. Their accommodations were mis
erable while their food waa made up of
a mixture consisting ot small chunks of
bacon.water and hardtack, with coffee in
which anything could be found from a
cigerette snipe to a chunk of coal, while
the officers were feasting like princes in
their private quarters. Mr. Dye states
that nothing could induce him to take
the trip again. He ia now on his way
to Walla Walla in search of employment.

The performance given bv the Wizard

SPECIAL MARKET LETTER.
Issued Weekly Giving Present Quota
tions on Western Stock.
Omaha Markets.
Since our last letter there have been
good soaking rains over the etates of
Iowa, Missouri and Nebraska, which
will insure plenty of water for stock
during the fall months, and also put the
native grass pasture in the best possible
condition for feeding both cattle and
sheep.
The corn crop is so nearly matured
that feeders are now able to estimate
the quantity they have raised and also
the amount that is likely to be for sale
in their respective neiehborhoods and
the stock they will be able to handle
during the coming season. As a conse
quence of being able to define the situa
tion there has been considerable activi
ty during the last week the demand for
both etock and feeding cattle and also
for feeding sheep. '
The supply of Western cattle this
week has been quite liberal but they
consisted largely of feeders on the com
mon to medium order. Good beef grades
were scarce and in demand at prices, at
the close today, 15c to 20c higher than a
week ago. Good choice feeders are sell
ing at firm prices, but other grades of
feeders are 10c to 20c lower than the
close of last week. Cows and heifers are
selling at strong prices.
We quote Western grass beef sters at
$3.70 to $4.55 ; cows and heifers $2.75 to
$4 15. Western stockers and feeders :
yearlings, $4 to $4.75; two-year-olds,
$3.80 to $4.40; three and four-year-olds,
$3.70 to $4.35.
Receipts of sheep during the past week
have been large and composed mostly ot
Western sheep. While fat sheep and
lambs sold during the week a shade
lower than last week, feeding sheep and
lambs have been 10c to loo higher, sell
ing up to fat sheep and lambs, so that
the market as a whole has been very
satisfactory to sellers.
Quite a large number of faedera from
the surrounding states have been on the
market and have made liberal purchases
at good prices. The trade has been ac
tive and receipts have been sold out
promptly each day.
At the close we quote you Western
wethers, $3.75 to $4 ; ewes, $3.50 to $3.75 ;
yeariings $4 to $4.25; lambs, $4.50 to
$5.15.
