Workmen are today employed in re

Mrs. Dr. Frank, the celebrated eye
specialist of San Francisco, arrived in
this city last evening, and is registered
at the Umatilla House. We hope she
may be induced to remain with us for a
while, which would afford the people of
Wasco county an opportunity of con
sulting a scientific and conscientious eye
specialist.
A marriage license was issued today
by County Clerk Kelsay, but at the re
quest of the lad3', who should have
something to eay in the matter, the
names are suppressed. We are informed
however by toe clerk that the gentle
man's name ia "Mud," which, from its
meaning when used as a slang phrase,
probably accounts for the lady's request.
Joseph Supple haa a force of men at

eteamer up on the ways, where she will
be rebuilt and launced again. The ves

The lecture at the Methodist church
tonight entitled "Village Work on Camel
Baci," which will be given by Mrs.
Prautch, a missionary who has spent
nine years in Gugurat, India, will not
be, as is usually expected, uninteresting ;
but on the contrary, spicy and full of
personal experience. She will have
present a lady in Indian costume, and
many pictures and curios from that
land. Children are especially invited
as she will speak of the different animals.
Major Wilkinson, who is reported as
killed in the battle with the Indians
Wednesday on Bear Island, in Minne
sota, was well known in the Northwest,
having lived in Portland about ten years,
between the 70a and 80s. He came to
Portland originally as an aid on the
staff of General Howard. He was a
great worker in the Y. M. C. A., and
much interested in Sunday schools. Many
who are now grown can remember how
when as children they looked forward
to Captain Wilkinson's visit to The
Dalles Sunday schools, at which time
they were eure to hear some fanny

tailors in this country. Made as

E. J. Gliaan has been in oar city for
the paBt week in Hie interest of the
Second Annual Stockmen's Fair, which
will be held in Antelope on the 13th,
14th and 15th of this month. The peo
ple of that section are very enthusiastic,
and the fair is eure to be a success Mr.
Glisan has the consent of some of the
talent of our city to be preeent and take
part in the programs, among them
Messrs. N. J. Sinnott and F. W. Wilson.
He is also anxious that Messrs. Hamp
shire and Clark give their famous Irish
and Dutch turns.
Douj Langille was in town for
several days, unable to return to Cloud
Cap Inn on account of the deep snow
that fell there on the night of September
29th and at intervals since. The storm
on the mountains, he says, was the
worst he ever saw. Two feet of snow
fell and the strong wind drifted it in
places nine feet deep. The roads were
impassable and Doug was detained from
going to the inn until Tuesday. Fortu
nately the telephone kept in working
order, though snowed under in many
places, and Mrs. Langille was enabled
to communicate with Doug. She had
the assistance of Elmer McCray. Hood
River Glacier.
In the words of the Mountaineer of a
few years since, "Now is the winter of
our discontent." At least the mornings
are cold enough for winter, but who
could be discontented with such lovely
days as we are now having. This morn
ing was the coldest of the season, the
thermometer standing at thirty-one de
grees, but as soon as Old Sol made his
appearance we had summer again. This
is an exceptional year as regards the
cold weather, the like not being known
bo early in the season for about twenty
five years. Last year at this time it was
twenty degrees warmer. However,
boye, don't get your skates out yet, fans
will yet be needed before winder is here.
A commendable move has been made
on the part of the citizens ot The Dalles,
which goes to prove that the moss-backs,
who formerly made their home in our
city, have crawled away. By volun
tary subscription it has been arranged
to give Klickitat farmers who bring
grain to our city free ferriage across the
Columbia and return, from now until
December 7th. The only condition ex
acted whereby advantage may be taken
of this offer is that two-horse teams are
required to haul not less than a ton ;
while four-horse teams must carry a ton
and a half. This minimum is designated
that none may take undue advantage of
this generous offer. No doubt our neigh
bors over the way will appreciate the
inducement held out and improve the
opportunity offered.
A few days ago Mr. S. L. Brooks sent
a large basket of grapes of the Flaming
Tokay variety and a box of Muscats of
Alexandria to Mr. PagUe, who has charge
of the Wa6co county exhibit at the Port
land exposition. This morning he re
ceived the following in answer : "The
grapes you sent were placed in the

PEASE & MAYS, t
Wasco county exhibit. They are by far
the finest and best we have at the ex
position. The Wasco county ex
hibit excels anything we have ever had,
and too much credit cannot be given to
Mr. E. Schanno, E. L. Smith, of Hood
River, and yourself for your interest in
the matter." He also says: "I leave
here on the evening of the 8th for
Omaha, where the weather bureau con
vention will convene on the 12th. Ex
pect to be gone ten or twelve days."
One of the best talks made in the sen
ate yesterday was offered by Senator
Fulton, in his protest against Senator
Selling's motion for non-concurrence in
H. C. R. No. 13, providing for a joint
committee to formulate and report plans
for the best and cheapest method of cir
cumventing the Columbia riyer obstruc
tions at The Dalles and Celilo. Senator
Selling was satisfied to plead economy
in defense of his motion, but the Claleop
statesman took higher ground, urging
the supreme advantage of opening the
river to free and quick transit of freight
at abnormally reduced tolls. He main
tained that a few hundreds, or thousands
of dollars spent in such a quest would,
when the river route was practically and
sjccessfully opened, repay the state with
abundant interest, by the immense sav
ing to the farmers and wheat men eaet
of the mountains, and clinched the argu
ment by showing that Portland, itself,
would be the chief beneficiary from be
ginning to end. The senate concurred.

SITUATION GETTING WARMER.
Corbett's Backers Lose Rope George
and Geer Talked of Freelr.
The house today passed a bill requir
ing voters to register, and in the senate
a measure was passed authorizing school
districts to contract debts.
Both houses adjourned at noon to con
vene tomorrow at 10 o'clock.
The senatorial situation Is getting
warmer. Corbett'a backers are losing all
hope, and before Tuesday another name,
probably Simon's, will take the place ot
the veteran politican'a. Members of
the opposition have been approached
with the proposition to unite on Simon.
A caucus was held by the Corbett men
this morning from 9 to 10 and another
wijl be held tonight. Everything points
to exciting times tomorrow and Monday.
Geer and George are talked of freely.
Chancea of electing someone early in the
week are rather good. The vote today
stands: Corbett 36; M. A. Miller 24;
George 10; Wiiliams 4; Eakin 6; Gatch

by Mra. Wilrcot Whitfield, who thanked
tnem lor the kindly greeting given.raying
that she felt it was extended, not be
cause of any merit which the delegates
possessed, but on account of the grand
work in which thev are entracpH. Sh
