We learn that J. C. McKee, who has

Tygh Valley, has taken charge of the
mill at Cove, Or.'
The first colored man to be favored
with an office at the hands of the Oregon
legislature is A. D. Griffin, editor of the
New Age, Portland, who is aergeant-at-arms
of the house.
The city authorities are today having
the county surveyor locate the corners
of the lots in the burnt district before
the buildings are put np, that future dif
ficulty may be avoided.
Today the Dalles National bank fore
closed its mortgage on the Columbia
stock yards, and they were' sold at auc
tion to the highest bidder, being bought
in by the Laughlin estate.
A band of 250 cattle were in the stock
yards today, being purchased from
Howard & Stearns, of Prineville, for the
Union Meat Co. Hon. John Fulton
also left for Sherman county this morn
ing with twenty-seven bead of cattle.
Yesterday in mentioning the days
when the library will be open we in

A telegram received from Hon. Leasure
and others, who were to be present this
evening and organize' the Native Sons of
America, announces their failure to con
nect, and therefore the organization will
be deferred until some time next week.
Among the eightjmembers of the Ten
nessee Students, who will be here on
Monday and Tuesday of next week, are
four of the orginal Jubilee Singers. Ev
ery member of the company is a soloist
of merit, and Dalles people will regret
if they do not hear them.
It is expected that Rev. Polling, the
new pastor of the Congregational
church, will arrive in the city tomorrow,
and begin his duties on ext Sunday.
This will be welcome news to the mem
bership and congregation, who have been
so many months without a pastor.
The light showerB of rain last night
and this morning were very welcome as
they are much needed to settle the dust,
which travelers Bay is very bad in the
country. A gentleman who made the
trip to Dufur yesterday says it is diffi
cult to determine whether one is on
foot or horseback, so blinding is the
dust, caused mostly by the wheat teams
which one encounters. Let the wheat
teams kick up all the dust they want to;
the more the merrier, when we consider
every load contains wealth for our
farmers, and therefore for us.
Passenger train No. 1 was twelve hours
late today, pulling in at the depot at 3
o'clock. The delay was caused by a
wreck twenty-three miles this side of
Montpelier, Idaho. Two freight trains
collided causing a serious wreck, in which
several persons were killed. No particu
lars could be obtained.
In the window of Harry Liebe's jew
elry store may be seen a number of most
interesting Spanish souvenirs which
weresent by Ben Ullrich, of Co. L, to
his father in this city. Among them
we noticed a deck of Spanish cards, coat
of arms, an old manuscript of 1776, a
cartridge taken from a Spanish ship,
voucher which their soldiers- receive for
salaries, a lottery ticket, a' rosary, pic
ture of a Spanish soldier buttons from
uniforms, sea shells from Manila bay,
ivory key of an organ in Manila cathed
ral, also a prism from a chandelier in
the same cathedral, and some articles
which, not being versed in the Spanish
language, we will not mention. Mr.
Ullrich values these very highly, and
well he may from their association with
events of such moment.
This morning, while Mr. C.L. Phillips'
horse, which was hitched to his de
livery cart, and had been driven to the
boat, was standing waiting for the driver
to return, he took offense at the shrill
ness of the first whistle, and determined
to make a kick. So gathering up his
courage, he started on a rnn up the hill.
Half way up he encountered a wagon,
and jumping over the wagon, got him
self into trouble, for he awoke to find
himself entangled- in the shafts, one
above and the other beneath him, while
the cart was standing on its bead. As
he stopped for a moment to consider the
situation and wonder if he hadn't better
join a circus as a contortionist, Mr.
Phillips arrived and checked his am
bitions by straightening him out and
driving him home, where he will be
taught a little horse sense.
Many who attended the Wizard Oil
entertainment last night were heard to
remark that they had listened to a fifty
cent program for fifteen cents. Some
how the shows given by this company
never grow old, for every member is an
artist. Gallagher is a comedian hard to
beat, and no matter how often he sings
"He Grows More Like his Dad Every
Day", he is always greeted with ap
plause. Every feature of the entertain
ment deserves mention, but perhaps the
most pleasing was the musical specialties
by George Melville and his wife. It
eeems that the commonest article of
every day use contains music when
touched by them. His rendition of
"Kentucky Home" on the sleigh-bells
seemed to captivate the andienee, while
"Sweet Marie", from the throats of a
few cow-bells was very nearly as taking.
Many of the audience went home carry
ing useful presents, which were given
away with medicine, and a very pretty
ring was drawn by a lady, from numbers
given at the door. -
The ladies' societies of the various
churches are again taking np their
winter's work, and yesterday afternoon
the Good Intent Society held a meeting
at the home of Mrs. C. W. Dietzel.
There was any amount of business to
transact in connection with their com
ing fair, and so busy were they that even
their nostrils did not detect a faint
aroma of coffee from the dining room
until their hostess stepped in and in
vited them to the most unique, as well
as palatable lunches they had ever par
taken of. It was termed a "German
coffee", and if any tine preeent had ever
doubted the superiority of the Germans
over other cooke, .they changed their
minds yesterday, for every lady yielded
the palm on that occasion. The society
expects to renew their efforts this win
ter in the interest of their church's
finances.
l'oster Party.
In connection with the regular meet
ings of the Ladies Aid society of the
Congregational church, it bae been the
custom to frequently have an afternoon
devoted principally to social converse,
games, etc. Yesterday.'afternoon such a
meeting was held at the home of Mrs. E.
C. Pease, which wad called a poster
party. From the different magazines
and newspapers shehad culled a num
ber of cuts used in advertising and fa
miliar to everyone, that is, eupposed to
be so, until we attempt to tell what
particular article they advertise, and
then comes the tug of war. These had
been tacked on the wall and the ladies
spent part of the afternoon in guessing
just what they call our attention to.
Mrs. Geisendorfer has evidently been
reading The Ciiroxicle for she succeed
ed in carrying away the two very pretty
chocolate cups and saucers as a proof of
her observing faculty. Mrs. Grey, who
has not quite such good eyesight, but
reads just the same, won the consola
tion prize.
The hostess had decorated her parlors
as only one of her good taste can, and
Berved a lunch which was in keeping
with the success of the afternoon's
pleasures. These afternoons are calcu
lated to awaken interest in the work of
the society, as well as create good feel
ing and sociability between its members.

TRIP THROUGH COLORADO.
Fw or Its Magnificent Sights Men
tioned In a Crude Manner by One
V ho Viewed Them.
At the close of the meeting of the
National Editorial Association at Den
ver, which adjourned on Friday, Sep
tember 9th, the newspaper people board
ed a special train, composed of eleven
coaches, and started for a tour of the
wonderful sight-seeing state, Colorado.
The first day was spent at Loveland, a
place of about 2,000 inhabitants, situa
ted fifty miles from Denver, on the
Union Pacific. Denver & Gulf railroad.
It is lively as a cricket and energetic as
a flea. It has frnit-growingand farming
interests all around, and every farm
shows industry and thrift. Here the
annual corn-roast was taking place.
Not a regular feet-toasting epree, but a
time when the fresh, green ears of corn
are roasted in open trenches and served
piping hot. Added to this "delicacy"
was a genuine banquet served in a large
tent, foi the benefit of hungry editors,
and in the words of the immortal poet,
the aforesaid editors fairly "groaned"
beneath the load, and had to Le conveyed
in carriages over the country.
Many on the Becond day took in the
trip over the Loop, which was not so
pleasant on account ot the frigidness of
the atmosphere as it would have been
on a clearer day. On reaching the lunch
station or half-way bouse, a snow storm
was encountered, but it was fleeting.and
by the time Silver Plume, at the end of
the journey, was reached, the winding
path of the snake-like road could' be
distinguished clearly for miles, and the
wonderful meaoderings of the famous
Loop, were plain to be seen, crossing
and re-crossing itself, until, like a crazy
quilt, it gives up and quits the job when
it finds a place large enough to deposit
tourists, who by this time have no idea
"where they are at" in trying to trace
the road over which they came.
The loop trip was formerly considered
the greatest one-day attraction the state
affords ; but within the . past six months
a formidable rival has made its appear
ance in the shape of the journey over the
Colorado and Northwestern to Ward.
This route is often termed the "Switzer
land Trail of America", and even that
appellation, with all its comprises, does
not hint at its grandeur. The road is
narrow gauge and leaving the growing
little city of Boulder, the traveler is
carried through the canyon by the same
name which is one of the deepest and
narrowest gorges in the world, climbing I
at first at the rate of 200 feet to the j
mile, and passing mine after mine con- j
taming the richest of ore. How we ever,
passed them we cannot tell. From
Francis, a small mining station 'to Ward
is only 3,500 feet, yet we run three miles
by raii to get there north, south, east
and west, soon reaching Point Franken
berger, named in honor of the civil
engineerwho accomplished this thrill
ing elevation. Old camp Ward finally
comes into view, 9,450 feet above sea
level, and in coming over 26 A miles of
track we have been lifted 4,000 feet near
er the place where the skeptical 8 re
foolish enough to say editors will never
go. Hastening, we will but mention
the lunch here spread, although columns
could be written and not do the subject
justice, for evidently the ladies under
stood the usual diet of their guests (air)
was almost too light in that atmosphere.
What shall be said ' of the following
day's delights, when, having traveled
in the night, we found ourselves in
Colorado Springs, with Pike's Peak' in
vitingly looming up in the distance, the
the Garden of the Gods near at hand
and Cheyenne ca- y n,w t'l its mysteriep,
among them a tempting dinner, but a
few minutt'a ride from thedepot.Oregir,
as usual, was bound to see it all, and
accordingly started early toreach"Pike's
Peak or bust." Upon retarning home
they found that they were "busted",
but not from a failure to reach the peak,
as a futnre article will show.
