GLEANINGS. been promoted to an eastern division, with headquarters at Chicago, to which city they will remove in the near future. Mr. Simpson married Miss Alma Beezley, a Dalles girl of former years, and is well known on the Pacific coast. Although No. 4, east-bound was about two hours late last evening, being de layed on account of the snow drifts be tween here and Portland, No. 2 arrived on time, experiencing no delay. Travel ers who are not concerned as to a delay, can enjoy some of the most beautiful scenery along this road ever viewed. The view in summer does not compare with that of a winter Bcene, when mountain tops, valleys and the prettv fir trees are covered in a mantle of white. What proved to be a very fortunate accident occurred this afternon wfien Mrs. T. J. Seufert, with her littlef son, and Mrs. W. L. Bradshaw were out sleighing. The cutter encountered a pck at the corner of Mays & Crowe's store, and the occupants were thrown slight The The bridge across 12-Mile, near Boyd' mill, which was erected by the people of that district, has been accepted by th court as a county road.

Miss Stella Mayhew.one of thejleading characters in "On the Suwanee River," is said to be the famous "button girl," who appeared in this city with "The Pulse of New York" Company a year ago. Harry Goetz, who died in Portland last Friday of consumption,, was a former Dalles boy. He was buried Sun day afternoon from the family residence in that city, the funeral being conducted by Rev. D. B. Grey. The family has been particularly unfortunate in the past three years,' four members having "died during that time. A letter received from Miss Georgia Sampson tells of the promotion of G ro ver B. Simpson, who formerly was sup erintendent of the Missouri Pacific di vision of the Wells Fargo Express, with headquarters at St. Louis, bat who has brought back, when theladies drove off. Yesterday, while residents of this city were enjoying the Splendid sleighing which now prevails, and having a genuine snow storm, the rain was pelting down ferociously all day long in Portland, and to the surprise of Eastern Oregon women, whom a small shower will cause to postpone their shopping till 'a more convenient season, those webfoot women were wading around in slush above their shoe tops in the endeavor to take ad vantage of the January sales. "Frailty thy name'is woman" does not apply to that individual when the "sales" are on. W. E. Niles, who was traveling freight agent of the Union Pacific railroad, died yesterday morning at 8 o'clock at St. Vincent's hospital in Portland. Much regret is felt by bis friends in this city at bis sad demise. Mr. Niles was a genial, whole-souled man who upon bis frequent vieits to this city bad made himself beloved by everyone who chanced to meet ,him. Ever ready with a cheery word for all, no visitor was more generally . liked, and no visits more eagerly looked forward to than were his. He seems to have been a great favorite in every place where his business called him, and in Portland he is generally mourned. 'Tis true of him that be scattered eunshine all along the way. A report from Manila says : "To fill 1 the vacancy caused by the promotion of Major Cardwell, from the regimental staff, an examination has been held to select a eecoud assistant surgeon. Bros sius, Littlefield and Anderson were the three who went before the board, the two former being hospital stewards, and Dr. Anderson a member of the hospital corps. Colonel Summers announced he would recommend for appointment the. one passing the highest examination. No report of the board called by the chief surgeon has been made yet, so the victorious candidate cannot be named. All three have done faithful work in the hospitals. Dr. Littlefield has been in the Cavite hospital ever since the regi ment came to Manila." Two of -the gentlemen mentioned for promotion are known to Dalles people, Dr. Brosids of Hood River and Dr. Littlefield. who is a brother of Mrs. W. L. Bradshaw. A dramatic critic in Denver has eent us the following concerning the play which will be presented. here next Mon day night: "Last night the Tabor Grand presented for the last time in Denver a comedy drama success called "On the Suwanee Rrver," before an andience that completely filled ' the theatre from top to bottom. The action of the play being laid near the little village of Suwanee in "Florida, and binges on the Clayton family, one of the oldest in the district. As for the plot itself, one gets mixed up and wonders what is coming next. There are so many complications that arise from time to time that lead one to believe that the play was strictly melodramatic, but such ia not the case. It is full of love and pathos, intermingled with bright comedy that cannot but make the piay a Dig success wntrever it is pre sented, ine scenery is superb and the play is mounted in an excellent manner. The singing . of the colored quartet is one of the special features in this D re dact ion, and it is only right to say that tney were given a nearly welcome by the audience, encores being very frequent." GOVERNOR GEER'S STIRRING ADDRESS Reform is Strongly Advocated By Both the Retiring Governor and His Successor. Capital, Sajt.em, Or., Jan. 10. The joint assembly canvassed the governor's vote at 11 o'clock today, and T. T. Geer's election was announced. The retiring and new officer and the supreme court were seated upon the platform. Gov. Lord then read his fare well message, which was strong on re form. President Taylor presented Governor Geer, who was greeted with prolonged applause and delivered his address in his usual happy style. Reform was strongly recommended by him, and a suggestion made that the present legis lature expedite work and adjourn, thus decreasing the expense. The entire ad dress teemed with sarcasm and good sense. Referring to the committee clerks evil, he advised a radical change; also suggested a change in the board of regents of the state, recommending that the board be composed of not more than three members to be drawn from the counties in which the institutions are located. He favors tbe appointing of a committee to confer . with a like body from the state of Washington, relative to tbe salmon industry. ' '" Also proposed two more judges of the supreme court. .' - Another matter mentioned was that of the need of good roads ' and broad-tired wagons. . A law should also be passed protecting game birds, and recommend ed that no open season be allowed for one year. He says tbe cost of conveying prison- NEW ATSTD 2d HAND WHEELS - ; - For Less than Half Price We wish to clear out all old stock before mov ing into new store and have some bargains.
