tunity to hear them.
Yesterday we were shown some fine
Klondike nuggets which had been sent
Mrs. Waud by the Captain. They were
seven in number and ' as pretty speci
mens as we ever Baw. Captain Waud
has many friends in The Dalies who
would be delighted to hear from him,
and receive some substantial proof that
they are not forgotten.
A lively altercation occurred on the
street last evening between a lady who
runs a boarding house and a fellow who
was endeavoring to avoid paying his bill.
A stick of cord wood in the hands of the
former brought the discussion t'o a ter
mination in favor of the woman, wh
had worked hard for her money,
'was not afraid to demand it.
Yesterday a letter was received from
Gu3 and Joe Bonn, who areat present

The special attention of the ladies is
called to the following from last night's
Oregonian. By giving heed thereto the
embarrassment of snch a scheme being
tried in The Dalles may be avoided : "A
great laugh was raised just before the
curtain was lifted over the first scene of
act one in "The Airship" last night.
By concealed arrangement, just as the
orchestra struck up the opening march
a handsome placard slid into view from
behind the piano, bearing this suggest-

Oregonian.
The Dalles is to have a first-class play
Saturday night,, when the Vogt opera
house will be opened for the season with
"The Airship," which has been drawing
immense crowds in Portland. For some
time complaint after complaint has been
raised on account of the scarcity of at
tractions in our city. Now is the time
to let the management know just how
anxious we are to have good plays here
this winter. We are assured by those
who have heard "The Airship" in Port
land of the merits of the production, and
one need not hesitate to attend for fear
of hearing a snide show. Manager Kin
eraly informs us that we are also to
have the "Pulse ot New York" company
here next month. .
We were reminded by the Ladies'
Home Journal, which came to onr table
this morning, that the fall of the Turks
is near at hand. That excellent journal
made its appearance in Thanksgiving
attire this morning, with a gown of old
rose. Its over-ekirt was embroidered
beautifully, representing a very pretty
young lady strolling through a meadow
of flowers and grasses, while by her side
strutted Jour proud Thanksgiving birds,
seemingly unconscious of their pending
doom. Indeed our appetites almost
failed us as we thought of the cruelty of
putting an end to the "gobble chorus."
However, we are positive this feeling is
of short duration, and til disappear
long before invitations to Thanksgiving
dinner are being issued.
The. Dalles has a heroin her midst
one who was among the thickest of the
fight at the famous battle of San Jnaq
Fred Gjrunow, who is now off on a thirty
days' furlough, and reached home last
night. Fred enlisted at Portland some
time previous to the breaking ont of the
war, and was for a time stationed at
Vancouver, and then moved to Boise
City. He left there with the Sixteenth
Infantry about April 21st. Since that
time he has had experiences compared
with which the experience of a lifetime
is as naught.; He has been to many fa
mous battle-grounds in the meanderings
of the troops, and has heard the whiz of
shot and shell around him, to which he
says little heed is paid, as the sight of
comrades dropping around one fires, the
blood to boiling heat and daring deeds.
On the 13th of September he reached
Boston, completely worn out, and was

After the thirty days are over he will

,The Talne Class Meeting.
Beside the society in connection with
the High school, we have a literary
class known as the "Taine class," which
for several winters has been doing ex
cellent work in taking up historical
readings. Last evening this class met
at the home of Mrs. Wilson and several
of their friends enjoyed the hours with
thera. The regular lesson was for the
time set aside and all joined in a Geo
graphical guessing contest, which was
very interesting. A list was given each
person and the first guess was as to the
name of the place which included a head
gear and a stream of water. This proved
to be Hood River. And so twenty-four
snch questions were answered, some of
which were very clever. At the close of
the contest it was found that the pupils
of the class were extremely bright; but
it fell to the lot of Mrs. Donnell and Mr.
J. P. Lncas to draw for the prize, and
the latter carried away a small globe
paper weight. Rev. De Forest was also
the winner of a prize.
During the evening two beautiful solos
.were rendered by Mrs. Huntington and
Mrs. Woodworth, and a recitation "Aux
ItalienB" was given. After some time
had been spent in pleasant conversation,
lunch was served, which was a pleasant
ending to a very pleasant evening.

.THE HrlitfWHHE DEALERS.,
167 Seuonl St.' THE DALLES. OR.
THE DALLES STILL ON TOP.
Everything Lively and We Carry the
Palm-tet at Have , AJannfaclorleR.
After the storm the calm is always
more noticeable, and it was naturally
supposed yesterday would be "blue
Monday" indeed, since last week was
such a busy one. But not so. It takes
more than the absence of a fair, or any
thing which has ever visited us, to make
The Dalles hibernate and yield the
palm to any city of its size in the United
States as far as business is concerned.
To prove this statement one baa but to
walk abont the Btreets of our city and
take note of the amount of business be
ing carried on. Buildings being erected ;
wheat teams in abundance coming from
the east and . the north, and returning
loaded down ; country people busily en
gaged in trading; and bo on, nnt:l we
wonder why The Dalles isn't the largest
city in the Northwest. Particularly do
we question thutly when we contem
plate the amount of shipping which is
continually going on in our midst and
the wool, wheat, fruit, salmon and what
not which changes hands here.
The query has been answered long
since by those more competent to judge
wherein lies the difficulty, and echo still
responds, "The- absence of manufac
turies." When will this be fully realized,
and the result be shown in the number
of industries which , shall epring up
around us? A special dispatch to the
Post Intelligencer of Seattle from Taco
ma, dated October 20th, has the follow
ing, and we are now wondering if it is
sarcasm, or only one of those frequent
mistakes made by substituting The
Dalles for Dallas. Let us imagine the
dispatch authentic, and the results
which would arise therefrom. But we
fear its like the humorist wife who was
"too good to be true :"
"It is 8emi-officiaIly announced that
the Tacoma Woolen Mills Company,
whose plant here was recently destroved
by fire, is to establish its new business
at The Dallee, Oresor. Since the burn
ing of the big plant, and after the an
nouncement that the company intended
resuming business, various cities and
towns in the northwest offered induce
ments to have the company locate its
new plant out of Tacoma.
''"After settling the insurance, the com
pany management investigated the pro
posals received, and it is now reported
the new plant ia to be established at
The Dalles. The little Columbia river
city has a. large factory building all
ready for ocQupancy, which it has of
fered to the company on such terms as
have proven satisfactory. The building
was erected by a co-operative concern,
made up of residents of The Dalles and
surrounding country, the intention hav
ing been to operate a woolen mill on
the co-operative plan. Something In
terfered to .prevent the scheme material
izing, and the big factory building has
remained idle."
Had Nature been lees lavish in bestow
ing her gifts npon as, some excuse might
be offered in. extenuation of our neglect. .
And yet she must be still merciful to ns,
for 'tie not onr own merits or enterprise
which have gotten us the victory over
every other place on the coast when it
comes to. business transacted ; bat the

Shakespearean Reading.
The first entertainment to be given by
Samuel E.', Wells, consisting of Shakes
peare's ("Merchant of Venice," to be
followed by hilarious and eide-eplitting
humorous sketches, was postponed from
last evening until tonight. Thesale
of the course tickets has been abandoned
entirely, and the general price of ad
mission to each of the four entertain
ment has been reduced to the nominal
sum of twenty-five cents.
The change has judiciously been made
in order to give our citizens the oppor
tunity of hearing something which in
all probability they are not likely to
hear very eoon again. ' Mr. Wells, as a
tragedian, is fully the equal of pir
Henry Irving, and is unsurpassed as a
light comedy entertainer.
His work not only appeals to the cul
tured and educated class, but Mr. Weill.'
unnsnal powers as a comedian make him
heartily enjoyed by everybody. He
comes endorsed byJChauncey M. Depew.
He has given these elegant entertain
ments oefore immense and enthusiastic
audiences in the East, and is always
spoken of by the press and general pub
lic as the most enjoyable artist in his
line in the country.
Those who mies the entertainment to
night are going to mies tbe rarest treat
of the season.
Remember that tbe course tickets have
been abandoned and twenty-five cents
admits yoa to each of the eutertain
ments; but be sure and come tonight.
