C3 " ' 20th: PIQUES AND WELTS. The demand for these goods is ever on the increase from the fact that there is nothing produced that has the style, beauty and character that is depicted in a well fitting suit, skirt or waist of this fabric. A still greater redeeming feature is in the fact that these goods do not crush and can be laundered like a pocket handkerchief. They are found in our stock both in vertical and horizontal stripes, also where the two stripes are combined, making a decidedly novel and stylish fabric.

Go and hear Dr. Fluno, Somehow the report bas gained credence that Mrs. C. J. Stnbling will soon sell out her greenhouse and go oat of the floral business. Upon inquiry we find there is no truth in the state ment, that she no bas such intentions. Many will be pleased to learn: of -the falseness of the assertion ; not only those who are regular patrons, but all. whom ebe has so kindly assisted by loaning potted plants and palms - for various decorations at public entertainments If any class of people on earth deserve a pleasant vacation trip . it is the weary school teacher, and this year they are to have a splendid opportunity in Oregon, and it does not take a great amount of money either.

From the amount of property which is changing handaand the number of resi dences that are being built, it is evident the people of The Dalles have great hopes for its future, and are willing to invest their money here.

Phillips has bought the Whittaker property opposite his store, and having moved the house north on the lot will transfer hia building to that side ot Eighth street; F. H.

This will greatly improve tbat portion of the bluff, and repair buildings which have for eome time been an eye sore to passers-ly. LITTLE SNOW MELTING." Resolutions on the Death of Mrs. Wood. Continued Cool Weather Is Holding: the Hirer Back and May I'rerent a flood. This has been an unusual spring, and in the language of the street, "That's no joke." The records show it to be colder, cloudier and damper than the average spring. What effect this will have on the prospective flood for Portland remains to be seen. The continued cold weather has kept the snow in the mountains from melting to amount to anything, though a little is melting all the 'time. The mercury doesn't get higher than the 50s during the day in the mountains tributary to the Columbia streams, and at night it drops back to the freezing point. If this keeps up for a few weeks it will mean continued high water dur ing June and July, but no great flood like that of '94.- The Snake river is holding on much longer than usual this year. A few days ago it was reported that the Snake had started on its UBual spring riee, but later it was found that the rise tame princi pally from the Clearwater branch. The Snake is now lower than it should be at this season. Mr. Pague sticks to bis high water theory. He has not predicted a flood this year, but says there will be some very damp cellars along Front street, and if the June' days drop in hot and remain so, there may be a flood. Tele gram. .

You may possibly catch a few stray dollars, but you will certainly get a reputation for being a "mean firm." The public like public-spirited men. They argue if you are mean in one thing, you will be mean in another. They don't like it.
