Edwnrdiaa leading member of that denomination in Tho Dalles, and Saturday evening tho young people gave n party in his behalf; while at tho close of last eveniug'a service the pastor, Kev. Jtushlug, made some very appropriate remarks concerning the step whlcli the young man was about to take, and expressing the good will of the Christian people toward him. Every member of tho Methodist church or of the congregation, ub well as nil friends of the church, uro particular ly invited to attend the reception to bo given to tho now paBtor, Kev. Hawk, this evening at the church. At his first services yesterday he was greeted with unusually large audiences, the main portion of the church scarcely being Urge enough to accommodate the morn ing congregation, at which time ho ex pressed a desire to becomo acquainted with the people at tho earliest oppor tunity, i C. A. Clauseen, who was burled Thurs day nt Goldendule, was one of the uloneer farmers Ju Klickitat county, and among the few settlers of early days whom the old-time cattlemen ot the valley ridiculed because of hia ideas about growing wheat. Mr. Clausssn had witnessed a transformation in Kansas, and he informed the Klickitat cattle barons that their days were numbered, and that instead of a few dozen cattle men, there would be hundreds of wheat farmers. The pioneer wheat raiser lived to Eee the fulfilling of hia predic tion, and aside from a good farm in Kansas, he left behind one of the best farms in Klickitat. His wealth all told is estimated to be about $75,000. .Saturday afternoon while Mrs. M. Hart was down town her residence on the hill, opposite that of J. H. Rowe, was entered and if 10 in money and a gold watch were taken. Upon her return home finding tiiat the things were gone, she immediately sent for the sheriff1. He with other officers began a search for the culprit, and susuiciouing "Kid" Moore, seaiched him, but found only ten cents on his person, so released him. No suspects have since been found, and as Mrs. Hart waB compelled to leave on the evening train and had no oppor tunity to eee the officers, they had no clue upon which to base their investi gation. It takes more than cool weather and threatening rain to keep Dalles people away from n band concert, and so, con sidering tiie short notice which was given, there was a largo number pres ent to listen to the splendid numbers rendered yesterday afternoon. Particu larly good taste is shown in the selec tions chosen for a Sunday afternoon cmcert, n nd each time the band is heard they ehow the perfect harmony which is being acquired by practice. During tho summer months when so many members were away it was diffi cult to prepare a program, but now that they can more easily meet, we hope to hear them oftener. If there's one thing above another that makes a place livelier it is to have a good band. In his annual report of tho agricul tural college at Corvallis, J. P. Apper son, president of the board of regents, says of one well known in Tho DalltJ, uii'i who was first principal of the Academy here : '''1 his closes tho second year's work of Dr. Thos. M. Gatch as president of the coll go and director of the station. I am gratified and pleased to ba able to statu that Dr. Oatch has continued to sustain ably and well tho important work of this college and sta tion. It is evident that ho is the light man for this place. He lias the cheer ful co-operation and respect of the pro fessors, teachers, und ull the employees. With the young men nnd women who have been in attendance during tho year he is generally regarded as a father. His work in tins school will remain a last ing monument of honor to him and of inestimable benefit to our people and to the state of Oregon." The bowling team of The Dalles Com mercial and Athletic Club, appreciating the many courtesies extended by the members of Illihee Club, of Salem, when the team visited Salem last winter, have presented to the Salem club a handsome ly mounted photogravure of Pop-Klo-Wind, a noted Yakima chieftain, taken from life, Attached to the gift was a card, bearing this inscription: "An honorary member of the Illihee Club, propossd by F. L. Houghton, Grant Mays, E. Kurtz, M. T. Nolan, Ii. Bald win, V. C. Schmidt. We trust he will ba accepted." The Illihee boys are de- I lighted with tho gift, which has been given a prominent position in the club rooms. The present is particularly ap propriate to ornament the walls of a bowling alley, as the name of the orig inal, translated into English, is : "Man with many troubles." His name in dicates that he was, without doubt, a bowler. Oregonian. The Oregonian is wrong in its translation of the Indian name, unless it deems "Short Arm" synonymous with "Man with many troubles." Its quite likely a short armed man would have many troubles. MUST BE REPAIRED. The Ilomls lletwttcn The Dalles anil Du fur ure In Need of Attention. The Dufur Dispatch is continually agitating tho repairing of the road be tween that place and Tho Dalles, nnd we would suggest that our people give the matter their attention, as it is n matter of great moment to the business men of this place. The last issue of the dispatch says in part: "Tho roads will continue to get worse from now- until the rains begin, and with the moving of the grain crop just begun, their state a month later can be imagined only. The travel being heav iest near the town makes that end need woi k first. "Dalles City and Wasco county went partners some years ago in u 'rock crusher,' or rather' Wasco county paid half the cost of a rock crusher to be used in Dalles City. The fact that this part nership could not legally exist never cut any figure, because the county becamo n silent partner ns soon as ita share o( the money was paid. Now why not sell the county's interest in tho 'rock crush,: er' to tho cltv and buy straw to fill up chuck holes in the roads within five or six miles of The Dalles eo tho farmer who paid iiis sharo in tho crusher will get some benefit. "Or, If that can't bo done, and some thing must be, It will pay tho farmers to pay into a fund the sum of say 10 cents per load on every load of wheat hauled, and with the money thus eollected keep a man working tho roa t from The Dalles to Eight-mile. Should the later plan le adopted the Dispatch will pay tho tux ou 100 loads of wheat. If some such plan could bo adopted for tho next mocth it would envo ninny times the amount expended.
