Sixteen applicants, mostly young la
dies, are being very mnch interested, if
not highly entertained, at ' the county
school superintendent's office today.
They are engaged in taking the exami
nation for teachers certificates a not
overly-enviable occupation. There' are
also four applicants for state certificates.
' At present the arrival of trains in the
city is "mighty oncertain." No. 3, west
bouBd, which should have arrived at
5 :05, reached here at 2:30, while No. 1 is
six hours late. - Nothing definite as to
the cause of the delay has been ascer
tained, one report saying it was due to
a slide, while another says there is a
wreck up the road. The reports, how-
ever, are about as uncertain as the trains.
Rev. R. Warner, who has been con
ducting the meetings at the Methodist
church, being compelled to attend to
other duties in the district, left the city
today, and word was received from the
pastor in charge at Arlington,- Rev.

noon to assist in the meetings. The new
song books have been received and will

bear repeating, as 'tis the wicked who
etand in slippery places, and therefore
must be the righteous who fail to stand.
Castle Rock is the scene of a wreck
today, No. 51, a west-bound freight,
being thrown off the track at that place
by a tree which had fallen on the track.
Fourteen cars and an engine were de
railed, but the smash-up was - not a
serious one, barring the fact that the
engineer, Chas. Graham, is said to be
injured slightly ; as is also the brake
man, whose name we could not learn.
The wires being down, it is difficult to
obtain information concerning the
wreck.
Recently the order of Red Men
purchased two lots on the south eide of
Odd Fellows' cemetery, adjoining those
of the Elks. The remains of Wm.
O'Neil were the first to he interred, and
as most of the members previously
owned lots in the cemetery , the newlv ac
quired property will be used for the
burial of brothers who have no families
or relatives here. A number of the or
ganizations of the city own similar lots,
which only tends to show that these
orders are not alone faithful to their
members during life, but give them
every attention possible after death.
As one by one the members of our
Minstrel troupe came straggling down

came to the conclusion that walking ties

This happy couple were married in Mis
souri fifty years ago today, and it is said
their devotion to each other increases as
each year goes by, commanding the ad
miration of their neighbors and friends
who hold them in " such high esteem.
Upon this occasion many of those among
whom they have lived for these many
years, will meet with them and help to
celebrate the auspicious event, while
they heartily join in the wish that many
more anniversaries may be enjoyed by
the honored couple. Mr. Menefee is
nnw 78 years old, while his wife is about
75 vears.

FOR ASSESSMENT PURPOSES.
Wasco Connty Divided Into Seven Dis
tricts Deputies Appointed.
There is always more or less dissatis
faction in regard to assessments levied
throughout the county. . No fault can be
attributed to the assessor, as it is an'
utter impossibility for him to determine
accurately in regard to the different dis
tricts without further aid. Therefore,
for some-time past the county court has
been considering the matter, and it has
been ordered that Wasco, county be and
is divided into seven districts to be
known as assessment districts, for the
purpose of assessing the property in
said county. Seven deputies assessors
have been appointed for the year 1899,
who will be under the direct supervision
of the county assessor, and receive $3
for each day's work. These deputies
will thus be enabled to see each tax
payer separately, and his assessment be
made personally, thus preventing his
making a complaint as to any mistake
which may occur. The following dep
uties have so far been appointed :
For district No. 1, E. Geslimr; No, 2,
no appointment ; No. 3, no appointment ;
No. 4, Joel Koontz ; No.5, T. H. John
