- From all appearances, :tfhile the Easter
bonnet may be worn tomorrow, it must
of necessity have a rubber attached to it,
or the fair owner will be kept busy hold
ing it on. We ae thankful, however,
that these do not resemble those rep
resented to be worn in the Eat t, which
are covered with Enow, with- icicles
forming a fringe along the rim ; and that
our thermometor are not below zero.
At 1 :30 o.clock tomorrow afternoon

the evening by Rev. H. K. Hines. The
exercises by the . Junior League have
been postponed until 7:30 Monday even

It is often the case that even news
papers must go away from home' to
secure the news, and eo we read in last
night's Oregonian that DrJ Hugh Logan
has' leased the residence property, of
Mrs. C. N. Thornbury' for a term ot
years, expecting to make it his home:
The doctor, is particularly fortunate in
ecuring-such a desired residence.- as it
in'every respect one of the finest in
thetWeValsd hear it rumored that
a Dalles young&ian is to occupy that to
be vacated by the doctor but not alone
And now Mre. Faroe Strahon Moore
(Pet Strabau, formerly of Albany ) who
hag been under trial in New York upon
the charge of badgering, will take to the
stage. This is one' of tire strong evi
dences which might be brought againEt
the elevating; influence of the modern
stage; the fact that every criminal who
escapes justice immediately airs his
crimes upon the stage, and the deeper
the crime the more is he eought af;er by
the people. 'Twas a great mercy which
spared the people of the United States
having Durrant as one of the leading
stars of the profession.
Teday at noon the trout season began,
and now the festive angler will be su
premely happy until September. The
new law provides that all trout under
five inches in length shall be thrown
back into the stream. This feature of
the law will be obeyed perhaps. . Some
anglers, however, may have to provide
themselves with a role or tape measure
in order to be on the safe side, as a four
inch trout sometimes seems to be a foo
long. His attention is called' to the
fact that there is a place where txag
geration ceases and lying begins. Just
where the limit is, , newspaper people
are not in a position to know.
Superintendent Gardner of the Boys'
and Girls' Aid Society came up from
Portland last night, having in charge a
boy for whom he haa secured a gocd
home with a family named Drum mi nd,
who lives on 8 Mile. He informs us
that at present they have about 600
children under their supervision, and
very nearly the limit of forty in the
society. The little Gibson girl, be says,
has one, of the best homes Portland af
fords, and the lady .' who has adopted
her claims she is one of the brightest
children she ever knew. The Wolfarth
children also have been taien into good
homes, the youngest being adopted by a
family in Southern Oregon.
It has long been a custom for eggs to
be used as a prominent feature in the
celebration of Easter; but for the eggs
themselves to take time by the forelock
and celebrate ahead of time is something
out of the usual order, and yet such was
the case with an egg which occupied a
prominent piece in a setting in the barn
yard at D. M. French's home this morn
ing. The aforesaid egg broke the bonds
which bound it and to show that it, was
what it was cracked up to be, a four
legged chicken made its eggsit there
from. Two legs are shorter than they
really ought to be, and the chicken is
now looking-for someone to pullet. It is
April fool ; but nevertheless the chicken
is a reality.
The Walla Walla Statesman has "gone
to gettin' funny," and has thelfollowing
concerning something it knows little
about : "They are drilling for coal down
near The Dalles and are already ' down
475 feet. What the promoters consider
2 od indications have been struck, but
we never yet knew a prospect hole but
was as full of 'good indications' as a
certain place is said to be paved with
'good Intentions,' for they generally
turn out the same way." Dalles people
having failed to prospect where the
pavements are of good intentions, are
not so competent to judge as to the
result as is our friend of the Statesman;
but when it comes to our coal deposits
we could state coal facts were we so
inclined. Just hold on, brother, and
you'll hear a thing or two, and perhaps
three or four, at no very distant date.
John Graham, who has been spending
some time in Sherman county, returned
home yejterdayl He says everything
looks very prosperous in that county,
and that, in spite of drawbacks, the
wheat crop will be immense. While at
Blalock he met John Smith, one of the
incoi porators of the new company which
it is reported have on hand a scheme to
put on a line of boats on - the Columbia
river, to ply between Astoria, Portland
and the foot of the rapids of the Colum
bia, construct a portage railway to trans
port freight around the rapids, and have
also a boat to ply from the rapids to
points farther up, at least as far as
Umatilla. He assures Mr. Graham that
the project is now a foregone conclusion
and that work will be commenced in a
short time, and that Russell . Sage is
furnishing '. financial backing. Like
many others. Mr. Graham has grown a
little ekeptical in the matter from oft
repeated rumors of a like nature which
failed to 'culminate .iu any substantial
manner.

This being the second snuiversarv of
Cedar Circle, under the new regime ot
the Women of Woodcraft, the right
guards of Cedar Circle laid plans well to
surprise the Woodmen on last evening
after the business cessicn of the order,
when in trooped invited guests and
hostesses, and Cedar Circle was sur
prised and agreeably eo.
Dancing was the order of pleasure,
and with Mrs. Myers of Heppner, pre
siding at' the piano, the liijhj fantastic
was indulged in until midnight, and
everyone went home thanking these
social members of the order for remem
bering the Circle on this their anni
versary and appreciating theii kindness.
Cedar is to be congratulated on having
such charming young- ladies to look
after the "Good of the Order," and
should be, as she probably is, proud of
her social members.
