On apace, and we disccxver odd lots of goods that require the pruning1 knife. We are not
loath to give them their just desert, for these things must perish; if not by the aid of the
knife, then by the dust of summer; so we give the knife preference.

WAYSIDE GLEANINGS.
The county clerk announces the asses
gable property of the city at $1,110,000.
L. E. Crowe is today confined to bis
bed, with what ie Bupposed to be a case
of the ever present grip. '
Remember the Dalles City leaves the
dock at 7 , o'clock tomorrow morning,
a half-hour earlier than usual. Read
The Chronicle and you won't get left.

poor, who has been under the care of
Marshal Lauer for several days, was to
day taken to the poor farm, near the
city, where he will be a ward of the
county.
Will Hoering came up from Portland
last night, having been in the hospital
there for the past jnonth. Having had
to undergo two operations, be is still in
a weakened condition, and will not be
able to resume work for a month at
least.
On the whole, nothing pleases an au
dience bo much as a hearty laugh; and
there ia one continual laugh of three
hours when Chaa. E. Blaney'a big ex
travaganza success, "A Boy Wanted,"
will be presented at the Vogt, Saturday
21st, by one of the strongest and largest
company of players ever gotten together
for farce comedy, including a host ot
pretty girls, bright comedians and high
class vaudeville artists. It is just what
it is advertised, two shows. in one. Its
big success in the various towns where
it has been presented testifies to- its
worth.
The funeral of Leo HarkneBS took
place from the Catholic church ' this
morning at 10 o'clock. Pease & Mays'
store, in the shoe department of which
Mr. Harkness ia employed, was closed
from 9 :30 to 12 o'clock, to enable the
employes to attend the funeral services.
Last Tuesday morning Roes Field, the
year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Adelbert.
Field, formerly of The Dalles, died at
IVashon, King county, Wash. He was
ick bnt ab6ut six hours, his death be-
ng caused by spasms. He was a step
brother of Wm. Field, who died at Ma
nila.

Have you read S. L. Brooks' new ad,
in another column? Mr. Brooks has re
cently bought out the store of E. J. Col
lins & Co., and is now engaged in cutting
prices with the view to la; ing in a new
stock and otherwise renovating. Great
bargains can now be obtained at that
popular dry goods and grocery store. .
A. S. MacAUister has purchased the
boiler which was formerly used by the
Crystal Ice Company, and thia morning j
it was moved from its station in the j
burnt district to the laundry on First
street. The boiler which. has been used
at the laundry proved insufficient for the
amount of work it was required to do.
Tuesday night some unknown person
or persona .entered Marsh fc Medler'a
drug store at Wasco, through a back
window and broke open the till, bat
obtained only 15 br 20 cents No goods
have been missed. It ia thought some
one who knew the run of the Btore hoped
to find the safe open.- But they "had
but. 15 cents."
The Dalles City no doubt has seen a
"peck o' trouble" today in reaching her
present position, .which ,aa we go to press,
la between thia city and Crate'a Point,
where she was having a heavy tussle
with the ice jam. She was reported at
the locks at 8 o'clock, and if all had
been clear sailing she would have reached
here about 11 ; but as large chunks of
ice were floating down the river all day,
she must have bad a time holding her
own. Doubtless she'll come out on top
and make her trip tomorrow, leaving
here at 7 o'clock.'
Chancellor Thoburn, of the consoli
dated university in Portland, haB been
appointed pastor of the Centenary Meth
odist church, on the East side. Rev.
Thoburn visited this city a month or so
ago and spoke on the subject of "Mis
sions," in the Methodist church. He is
one of the beet speakers that . has ever
preached in The Dalles.
Americans who have failed to secure
property and take out a license to mine
in British Columbia, are out and injured 1
on the Atlin proposition, aa the act to
prohibit aliens from owning placer mines
in that country has passed the provincial
legislature. Those who were already
property owners will be allowed to work
that property, bat cannot acquire other
property ; and no one outside of citizens
will be allowed to work the mines unless
a license has previously been obtained,
which license is good for but one year.
For some months past two characters
have invested The Dalles, who are 'not
only a burden to themselves, but an. eve
sore to everyone who meets them. One
of them has been collecting "old rags,
old iron and old bones" or any old
thing which ue can " tarn into money
with which to purchase the "drag," and
how either of them exists ia a' mystery
to those who have watched them. Last
night Nightwatchman Phirman arrested
one of them, E. Russell -by name, for
vagrancy. What to da with him ia now
the question. Marshal Lauer has de
termined to compel him to move along
and leave the city, but at the same time
can not help wondering where the fellow
will move to. He is really an object of
pity : but one whom no one cares to
take charge of.
A special meeting of the city council
baa been called for thia evening, to con
sider the new city charter, which' will be
aent to the legislature, after being pre
sented to the council. , The city tax will
alao be levied. Under the present char
ter a regular levy of five mills may be
made and a special of a mill and a half..
It is required that the levy be made be
fore February 1st. Among other changes
the new charter will admit of a three
mill special levy. It also authorizes the
council to put aside and loan $1000 a
year as a sinking fund to meet the
bonded indebtedness of the city amount
ing to $57,000 and changes the bound
aries of the corporation so that the west
line of the "Methodist mission" shall be
the western boundary of the city. j
. The fortieth annivereary of true admis
sion of the state of Oregon to the Union
will be fittingly observed by trie two de
partments of the Oregon legislature, . as
sisted by the residents of the Capital
City, on Tuesday, Februay 14th. In
fact the celebration will Ate of a dual
character, inasmuch asFebruary 14th
marks the fiftieth anniversary of the ex
tension of United, States laws over the
then territory of Oreon. It Is proposed
to hold the exercise in the legislative
chamber of trfe hojise. There will be a
morning session, Aor which three ad
dresses have bean arranged, one each to
be delivered by representatives from the
executive, judicial and legislative de
partments ofthe state. In the after
noon it is popoeed to have an oration
delivered, -the exercises including, vocal
music. A banquet will probably be
held in the evening.
Vxtra Fay for Capt. Lewis.
A dispatch from. Washington to the
Oregonian haa the following concerning
a claim of . Captain Lewis for extra
services during his term aa register of
the land office here :
"Commissioner Hermann, of the gen
eral land office, has just returned to the
president, through the secretary of the
interior, a report upon the bill .which
recently passed congress, granting to
Captain J. W. Lewis, former register of
the United States land office at The
Dalles, Or., a paymendof $521 for extra
services rendered by him daring the va
cancy in the office of receiver occasioned
by the death of Colonel Thomas S.Lang
Aa technically constructed, the existing
law refuses compensation to the register
for the amount, of fees which he other
wise would have been entitled to receive
had the receiver lived, and thia bill ia to
compensate him for that which he
would otherwise have received. The
commissioner of t'e general land office
recommends the approval of the bill.
We are informed the statement Is in a
measure incorrect, the services being
rendered after the death of Receiver
Slusher, and before the appointment of
Col. Lang, whose death occurred two
years after bis term as receiver had ex
pired.
Ora.nct Opening-.
There will be a grand opening of the
new Midway, on Second street between
Federal and Laughlin, Saturday even

both before and after the theater. Wm.

be present at the opening. 19-2t
