Tomorrow night after

Tbe affair is to be up tt
the top notch of

About 4 o'clock yyesterday afternoon
when Fred Snipes was standing in

the floor in a dead faint. . The doctor
was called and after a half hour spent
in working over him, he was sufficiently
recovered to be carried to Mr. Schmidt's
room in the Chapman building, al
though be did not regain consciousness
for several hours. It is thought to be
neuralgia of the heart, as Fred has had
some such trouble before. He is some

Noble's Dramatic Company, that
excellent organization, opened Tuesday
nigbt in the very funny farce comedy
"Our Strategists," and we are glad to
note'that they a'e receiving so liberal
patronage. They are certainly giving
the people of Heppner a rare treat in the
way of good plays, artistically produced,
and fine music by their band and orches
tra. This is the best company the
amusement loving people of our city
have had the pleasure of witnessing in
years, and dnring the remainder of their
engagement merit packed houses.
Heppner Gazette.
It will be good news to thoBe who are
wont to drive during the summer
months to hear that the grade on Union
street, at the southwest corner of the
Academy park, is being improved so
that instead of encountering the steep
hill there, it will be an easy grade. The
road is also. being worked on, and trees
have been cut out preparatory to cutting
the street through on Liberty from
Twelfth to Fourteenth', and down Four
teenth to Mill creek. No better move
could be made, nor one which would be
more appreciated unless it be that the
same amount of work be done on various
other, city roads leading out of town.
In Portland the price of divorces has
been reduced from $10 to $5, and they
are now having a bargain sale in that
city, one id which both the women and
men are interested. Would it not be a
better idea for clergy menjustices of the
peace, and all who have the authority
to perform the "tie act," to increase the
price of the ceremony, and also that the
price of the license be placed at such a
notch that it is a more difficult matter
to get into tbe matrimony muddle, in
stead of reducing tbe price of extricat
ing one's self from its clutches. -As it
is now, the cost of both getting in and
out'of the "blissful state" is but about
$7.00 and a sack of potatoes or a BqnaBh
or two $2.00 for the license, potatoes for
the clergyman (oftner nothing) and $5
for a divorce.
The handicap bowling contest -between
the ladies and gentlemen at the club
alleys last night drew a large crowd, and
great excitement prevailed as game after
game was played, particularly among
the ladies who seemed to have their
innings last night. Indeed its seldom
that The Dalles ladies fail to have the
best of the bargain, tor we have some
fine bowlers among the ladies of the
club. Tbe teams were composed of Mrs
Seufert, Mrs. Fish, Mrs. Houghton, Mrs
Blakeley, Misses Anna Lang and Alma
Schanno; Messrs. Bradsbaw, Hostetler,
VanNorden, Mays, Kurtz and Schmidt
In the first game there were 27 points to
the credit of the ladies; in the second
13, and in the third 2. In the last the
gentlemen came to tbe front with 25
ahead. When it' was announced that
the ladies' had won by seventeen pins.
there was great rejoicing, and the "gal
lery gods," who always stand in with
them, were enthusiastic in tbe extreme.
The highest total ecore for the ladies
was that made by Miss Schanno, 143;
that of the gentlemen, 159, won by Vic
tor Schmidt. Mrs. Houghton held the
highest single Bcore for the ladies, 48;
Ed Kurtz for the gentlemen, which was
also 48. The winning team had refused
previous to the games to put up any
wager; but no doubt they did not refuse
a treat at the close of the contest.

WHO MAY BE DIRECTORS.
The Question Answered oy Superin
tendent Ackermao.
A question that haB been propounded
to the state superintendent with a great
deal of persistency is that of the qualifi
cations of school directors. In response
to a demand Jor information upon this
point, Mr. Ackerman has issued the
following ciicular of instruction :
"The question has been asked whether
or cot persons who have the requisite
qualifications to vote for school director
or school clerk, only, have the requisite
qualifications for holding the office of
echool director or school clerk. Reply
ing to said question I will say that, in
my opinion, if a person has tbe requisite
qualifications to vote for school director
or school clerk, only, said person has
the requisite qualifications for school di
rector or school clerk.
"You will notice by a careful reading
of the law covering qualifications of
voters that it makes provision for two
classes of voters ; one ot which can vote
at any school election or school meeting
upon any question; the other being
composed of women who are widows
and male citizens over 21 years of age
who have children in the district of
school age. and who shall have reeided
in the district 30 days, as aforesaid
shall be entitled ' to vote at any echool
meeting, for the election of echool di
rectors or school clerk. That is to say
this latter class can vote for school di
rector or school clerk, only, and hence
are qualified, according to this ruling,
to hold the office of school director or
school clerk. I have based this opinion
upon sections 81 and 82, page 43, of the
Oregon school laws, which reads as fol
lows:
" 'Section 81. Any person, male or
female, who is a qualified voter at
Bchool elections, shall be eligible to tbe
office of echool director iu such districts
" 'Section 82. At such general or
special elections, in such districts, the
only officers voted for shall be that of
directors and clerk.' "
