No abatement in the sale of liquor to

The company which is to present
"My Friend From India" at the Vogt
tonight will nrrive on the afternoon
train from Portland, having played in
Salem last night. Every indication
points to a good production and a
crowded house. The curtain will rise at
8:15 sharp, so that plenty of time will
be given for the production and also
allow the company to leave on the east
bound train.
Papers published in towns near The
Dalles are commenting rather freely and
unfavorably on tho alleged fact that
some of the "society girlB" of that town
took a drop too much when the Minne
sota troops stopped tiiere recently for a
feed, and "Hobsoni.ed them until they
were black in the face," says one paper.
It Is not made clear, however, whether
the critlcjem is aimed at the old, old
old story of a drop too much, the vigor
and force of tho assault, or that it was
made on Minnesota instead of Oregon
soldiers. Sumpter Newe.
C. M. Grimes will leave on tho after

down last week. Mr. and Mrs. Grimes
were residents of The Dalles for many
years, having left here for Portlrnd
about ten years ago. The worthy couple
therefore have a large number of friends
here, who gladly join Iu congratulations
and the wish that not only may their
golden wedding anniversary be a happy
occasion, but that the sunset of life may
indeed be golden to them.

came again his conscience seemed to
thaw out ami he realized lie had broken
the law, which requires that a person
be divorced six months before another
marriage is legal. He accordingly went
up into Umatilla county and wrote down
here to have divorce proceeding com
menced on the ground of Illegal mar

man to get ahead of most women when
it comes to divorce cases and his loving
spouse in turn iiad him arrestsd for

night to bring the too-muchly married
culprit down. '
