We must apologize to our lady read
ers for promising them a treat which
will not be realized. Through a misun
derstanding we were led to believe that
the ladies would be admitted to the
club tonight to enjoy the music by the
baud ; but su.th is not the case. Tbe
ladies, however, understand from past
experience the kindly feeling which tbe
members have for tli9m, and may be
assured they will have many opportu
nities to enjoy the music during tbe
winter.
About thirty couples enjoyed the
hospitality of the Kathbone Sisters last
night at their hall, dancing being the
order of the evening. At 0:30 Birgteld
struck up a favorite waltz, and from
that on until after midnight the "mazy"
occupied the attention of all. The floor
might be said to have been "pretty
slick," but anything must be slick to be
appreciated by Dalles people and only
made the amusement the more lively.
These parties are always greatly ap
preciated by those who are fortunate
enough to bo invited, and it Is to be
hoped muhy more will be given this
year.
The apportionment of state school
funds for 1890, ns will bo seen in another
column, is $1.51 per capita, as compared
with $1.20 for 1808. This is prubabiy
the highest apportionment tho state has
ever sent out. Under the echool law
that went into effect May 22nd, school
boards cannot have more than $00 sur
plus school funds on hand at the close
of the echool year, the first Monday in
March. A few schools in the county
have contracted with their teacher for
such length of time as the public funds
would justify. Tho unusually large ap
portionment sent out yesterday will
materially aid them in the length of
terms.
Any who take notice certainly haye
regretted that a place, which above nil
others ehould be kept in a neat condi
tion, is made a dumping ground for city
trash of all sort, as is the beach along
our grand Columbia-. It must mar the
grandeur of the river to tourists, who of
necessity must gaze on nil such debris
as they wander to tho dock or other
places to view tho much-talked-of
stream. Beside, we who are compelled
to see it every day are none the less dis
gusted at the prospect. Now, this can
be avoided, and what's more, ehould bo
stopped. Citizens ehould bo made to
bur.n all refuse, or a dumping ground
should be chosen in some less promi
nent place where everything so objec
tionable could be buried from the gate
of passers by.
The size of tbe state and its geological
division being such that it is impossible
to hold a session of the association at
any one place that would accommodate
tbe teachers of all sections, tbe state
teachers association has been divided In.
to eastern and western divisions. The
former will meet in La Grande Novem-
ber 1st to 3J, and the latter in Salem
December 27th 2Sth and 29th. Wasco
county is included in tbe eastern division
and programs for the meeting have been
tent to all teachers. It is not, however,
! likely that manv teachers from our
i ... . .
county will attend, tbe distance being
much greater than to Salem, where the
western division meets, and the expense
so great. Then, too, the date of meet
ing is not so convenient for attendance
as that of the later, which will be held
during vacation week. Judging from
the excellence of the program any who
may find it convenient to attend cannot
fail to enjoy tbemeelves and be benefited
thereby.

They are telling another story about
talking babies, and this comes from
Pendleton :
The baby was born several weeks ago
in Pendleton in the morning, and just
one day later, the following morning,
the physician was called to attend the
little child. It was very sick, and as the
medical man looked at it, he shook his
head. He apparently had small hopes
of its recovery.
"Is the baby very eick, doctor?" asked
the mother.
"Very sick, madam, very sick," was
tho reply.
"Cannot you do anything to save it?"
again asked the mother.
The doctor shook his head, and said
absolutely nothing.
And the baby suddenly opened its
eyes, looked directly into the doctor's
face, smiled and, said absolutely notb-ii'G-

As is usual in The Dalles everything
comes at once, and so last night on tbe oc
casion of Capt. Wells' lecture there were
several other attractions on hand. But
in spite of this fact, the brave captain of
Company L.was greeted by a large au
dience, perhaps as laree as ever greeted
a lecturer in The Dalles. His was an
exceptional subject, however, appealing
to the sympathies and patriotism of all,
and so when the speaker stepped on the
stage at tbe Vogt he received loud ap
plause. A screen bad been stretched across the
stage, which was, however, scarcely large
enough to show the views from the
stereopticon in their entirety, and for
the first time since the captain started
to give his lectures, the machine caused
some trouble, making a poition of the
pictures indistinct, though some cf them
were beautiful. Ttie views which he
carries are certainly well chosen and
very interesting. Beginning with a
picture of our own company taken in
front of the club rooms the day they left
The Dalles, the series illustrated every
step through the campaign, making his
talk very real and giving all a mote
lucid idea of what our Eoldiers passed
through. If any had an idea that the
Oregon volunteers had an easy time,
they uuet have changed their minds
after seeing views taken as they waded
rivers, marshes, thickets and rice fields
and stood in the thickest of the fray.
Many times deafening cheers were given
as heroes and thrilling seeues W5re
displayed.
Although not a fluent orator, Capt.
Wells is an unassuming speaker, ai.d
tells of their experiences in just such a
simple manner as one wants to hear to
understand and appreciate his subject,
taking m credit to himself, although we
all know of his career, but giving our
own boys their share of desei ved praise.
The last view thrown upon the screen
was perhaps the most clearly cut and to
the eyes of all Oregonians, certainly the
most beautiful, for while other scenes
were most interesting, this we could
claim as our own, a legacy from Nature
and one which was obtained without
bloodshed or war. Wo refer to Gilford's
view of Mt. Hood, which cannot bo ex
celled. At the opening of the lecture Messrs.
Linderr, Ivorthup, Doano and Lundell
rendered a patriotic quartet, which was
S3 well received that they were com
pelled to answer to an i nzore, when they
gave "Annie Laurie" iu a splendid
manner.
