This evening a meeting of the
club members will be held for the pur-;
pose ot electing officers. Every mem-'i

The pleasure of having the ladies pres

have to be foregone, so that ladies'even

Xast Saturday evening at a' meeting of
the members of the Calvary Baptist
church it was decided to extend a call to
i Elder W. B. Clifton, of Prineville, to
i, become pastor of the church in this city.
He'ls'said to be a fine" preacher and -an
excellent gentleman and it is to be hoped
the society here will secure his services.
Great preparations are on hand for
the fair, and Wednesday, Thursday and
Friday nights of next week there will be
great "doins" at the Vogt. Good pro
grams will be heard every evening, Miss
Rose Bloch being the attraction for the
first two nights. Beside, the ladies will
have on hand all sorts of articles for
Christmas presents
If Dalles people have an idea they are
going to hibernate this winter for the
lack of amusements, they are decidedly
mistaken. They are to have entertain
ments galore. On the 12th tbe "Daz
zlers," which the Oregonian speaks so
highly of, will appear at the Vogt ; on
the 13th Mahara'a minstrels will appear
at the Baldwin. On the 14th, 15th and
16th the fair will be held at the Vogt,
when the programs will be exceptionally
good, and on the 17th Hi Henry's min
strels will visit our city. What more
can we ask for?
It is certainly here. What? Winter

who are in a poeition to judge, say
every indication points to a genuine
enow storm. The same conditions exist
which we had in 1884, when on the -9th
of December the barometer read 30.51,
with a strong northeast wind. On the
13th enow began to fall and by January
10th we bad nine feet of snow. Don't
be frightened, we wouldn'tcare to be put
on oath as to whether or not the same
state of affairs will exist, but we will say
positively we won't have the same snow,
ana we nope not the eame amount.
However, the barometer today reads
30.70 and the minimum thermometer
this morning said 29 degrees. Let the
cold weather coue ; don't stop it. We
all feel better when she's here, even if
she does give us the ebake.

President's l'ollcy Is to Replace Volun
teers With Regulars.
If the war department should send
woid, as a New Year present, to the peo
ple of Oregon that their sons, husbands
and brothers now in Manila would be at
home before tbe coming of spring, such
a shout of rejoicing has never yet been
heard in this state as this gift would call
forth.
That such news may come is not at all
improbable; in fact, indications point
strongly in that direction, and the
mothers whose hearts have been full of
sorrow since their boy went away need
not yet lose hope, for their boy may
soon return.
Seven regiments of the regular army,
now situated in Wisconsin, have been
ordered to rendevous at San FranciBco
at once, preparatory to sailing for Ma
nila. This might mean that more troops
were needed there and nothing more,
but for tbe tact that the president in his
message to congress, says that it is his
purpose to order tne volunteers mus
tered out as Boon as regulars can be sop
plied to take their places.
It is the opinion of military men that
any volunteer who can pass the exam
ination, and whose record is good, will
be admitted to the regular army if he
desires to remain in service. Few of the
boys in Manila, however, would be like'
ly to enlist if they bad to stay there, as
the months they have remained there
have been full of sickness, hardships and
depth, and the majority of them are ful
ly ready to return borne.
'The president," said a gentleman to
day, '-in addition to being a good and
wise man, is not adverse to gaining fav
or with the people, when such an action
does not interfere with the carrying out
of his policy, and he no doubt realizes
that be could not do a more popular
thing just now than to arrange for the
soldier boys to come home. I believe
soch arrangements will be speedily
made and that the order for mustering
out will be given within the next three
or four months, or earlier if the regular
army conld be increased sufficiently be
fore that time." Telegram.

These four characters constitute the
whole show, for with the exception of
the a single appearance of Jake, the

Mrs. Shields, who is familiar to Dalles

ward Shields, who appeared in two
characters, had far better stick to his
stereopticon than to be posing as an
actor, for if an audience wanted to attend
a stereopticon show they would call on
him as being a first-class manipulator;
but no one wonld ever choose him as
having the slightest talent in the histri

The Pulse is all right in its way, but
it doesn't weigh much when it comes to

John Burns, an extensive fruit dealer,
of Lacrosse, Wis., went EBSt last night.
having completed the purchase of 18
carloads of apples in tlie" Columbia river
valley. He said that hereafter he would
handle Oregon fruit exclusively in pref
erence to California. He is delighted
with the quality of Oregon fruit, and had
no idea that such good fruit was raieed
here. He said that he would come to
Oregon next season in time to ship the
first strawberries, and stay until the last
apple in gone. Theonly fault Mr. Burns
finds with Oregon fruit is in the pack
ing it lacks uniformity in eize. As
soon as Oregon apples are packed as
evenly as are those from California,
there will be a big increase in prices and
profits. Eastern markets want only
first-class fruit, and it will not pay to
ship any other kind. Oregonian. ..
