The building occupied by the White HouBe clothing etore and A, A. Brown's etore are today receiving a coat of white paint. Who said it was winter? Not the crocuses, who have heard the reports, lifting their yellow heads above the enow and peeping out to see if the river is re ally frozen over.. The farmers do not seem to credit the report either, for some of them have began plowing. Who'll solve the problem is it winter or is it spring? G. W. Phelps, accompanied by the Misses Hart, of Heppner, arrived in the city on the delayed train last night, just in time to street their friends at the Elks' party, but too late to enjoy the dancing, for which purpose thev made the trip to onr citvJiert'8 friends deep- 1 unfortunate accident which prevented their full enjoyment of the party. This morning Coroner Butts received a telegram from Viento informing him that the body of a man bad been found under bridge No. 106, a short distance east of Viento, and it was the supposi tion that he had been knocked off the bridge by a passing train, Mr. Butts received word just in .time to take the delayed train for Viento, where be will inquire into the case.. This morning about 7:30 the chimney at the" home of Jacob Melquist, on Eighth street, burned out. As the wind was blowing quite hard, and the thought of the recent fire at the real dence of Unas, bcbmidt was fresh in their minds, the residents in that vicin uy were exercised as to the re sult of the fire. However, with careful . attention, the sparks were prevented from igniting any portion of the build ing. The Chinook was never more wel corned in The Dalles than at present for. although its effect is scarcely notic able on the immense body of ice aeparab ing us from-the Washington 'tide "and preventing river traffic,- no doubt It will accomplish the work.

" When the west-bound trains had just settled down to schedule time, the diffi culty on the Short Line being cleared, a new source of annoyance in the shape of a wreck occurred at Dee Chutes bridge yesterday afternoon. A broken flange on No. 4, the east-bound passenger. which arrives here at 5 :30, caused cne truck to be thrown off and one car to land against the truss on the side of the bridge.' Although there were many pas sengers on the car, who received a good shaking up, none suffered injury there from. No. 1, due here at 3:15, being late, enconntered the wreck and was de layed about five hours longer. The pas sengers were finally transferred to some of No. 4's cars, and an engine sent from here brought them to this city, ar riving at 12 o'clock. Mr. De Huff im mediately left with the wrecker, and the debris was soon cleared so that No. 3 reached here at 10:30 this morning. Clrenlt Court Motes. This morning William Jaegar plead guilty to the charge of issuing a forged paper and was sentenced to two years in the penitentiary.. Al Mesplie plead not guilty to the charge of assault and battery.

Jayne and ,A. S. Bennett appear for the prosecution, while Messrs. H.S. Wilson, F. P. Mays and W. H. Wilson represent the defendant. Up to 3 :30 this after noon "the following jurors. have been chosen : O. B. Connolly,' E. E. Lyons and T. C. Benson. - - & MAYS. ALL WENT MERRY. The Elko' Ball the Moot Decided Social Success Kver Achieved In The Dalles. For weeks anticipation has n high matter regarding the Elks' ball, but to what height it soared. ost exag- gerated expectations were too San guine, for the realization aa equal to it, and the reputation whic the Elks had already gained for perfecting eyery de tail was sustained. - As the dancers filed into the hall to the music of Parson's orchestra, they found themselves iu a brilliantly-lighted room under a canopy ' of pnmle and white bunting so graceful draped that it Beemed fairies must have touched it with their wands. In the center of the ceiling an arch of buning- had been formed from which flew the American eagle, clasping. in its tallons the Stars and Stripes, and all about it white doves darted in and out. Fom this beautiful design, which was li with purple lights, to the four corners of the room the colors of the order were festooned. At the front and on each side of the ball were large Elks' heads,every horn bearing a light, while fromone end of the build-i ing to the other, punting was artistically nrraiiKeu in every cuucei vauie manner At the back ' oil the stage, which hact been arranged to accommodate spectators! was draped the American flag, and pottetj plants were placed ai&ong the lights. iooi uilfl- In the southeast corner of the bnil ing to the left of the stage, a platform bad been built, which was also made it tractive by some artist's band. - On tiiis platform was seated Parson's orchestra, of Portland, and to the excellent music furnished by these musicians was, in a great measure, due the suueees off the party. Dalles people are said to be criti cal in this regard, and they have reason to be, for no city of its size has ha the privilege of enjoying better dancing music than has ours. And so w de manded much of this orchestra, of which we had so often heard, and inuch was given. Be a person ever so uwkfrard, and his ear wholly untrained totbeVich est of harmony, he muBt of necessity keep time to this inspiring music, and as the dancers glided about to the . very la tee t selections; words of commendation were beard from every side, and so en raptured were they that encores were frequent, abd kindly responded to. Iri a word, the music was perfect. . " . In keeping with the attractiveness bf the surroundings were the handsome customs worn by the ladies . present. Never at a social event in the city were tneir so many iaBiy ana Deaatirnl gow as were seen upon tms occasion, eac lady seeming to have studied to dress i the most becoming and graceful manne: possible. - As the clock struck 11 the usual toast of the order was given,, and seldom have we heard "Auld Lang Syne" Bound better than last night. wh?n the orches- no theAn not The models for the coaling season will be No. 61, men's roadsters, $50; .No. 62, woman's special light roadster, $50; No. 66, men's regular roadsters, $75 ; No. 67, woman's regular roadster, $75; No. 69, men's roadster thirty-inch wheel, $75. , Quality is Cleveland throughout, not a part slighted not a machine un worthy of a Cleveland nam plate. 1899 changes Wider handle bare, with new internal' expanders, improved auto matic oiling device, flush frame head, increased gauge of tubing, longer frame and new reinforcements, new ball bear ing spokes, alao new bubs.- The Burwell detachable tire, more air, more comfort; special bearings along new lines.

The determination of the Elks to make this event excel any that has ever been given in our city was evidenced in every detail of last night's party , and in this they were not disappointed, which tact their friends, who enjoyed their hospital ity, will bear evidence to.
