W. Davidson and M. M. Swift, both of
Dufur.
Miss Taylor announces that beginning
Monday the session of Kindergarten
school will be changed from morning
till afternoon, from 1 to 4 p. m.
We understand that the Hamlin
Wlzird Oil Company will visit this city
during the holidays, playing at tte Vogt

The postoffice was closed this after
noon from 2 till 4 o'clock, un order having
b:en issued by the postmaster general
for all offices throughout the union to
close at that time, during which hours
took place the funeral of Vice-President
Hobart.
In spite of the nearness to Thanks
giving, the turkey market seems to be
somewhat off and some dealers have re
fused to buy. They claim the market
will not warrant the pi ices asked.
Twelve cents n pound is what is being
paid.
The laBt of the series of sermons on

will sing "Nearer Home," the choir as
sisting in the chorus.
Everyone who attended the clubdanc
log party last evening is talking about
the spendid time they had. There was
an unusually large crowd in attendance,
and the muBio by tlio full orchestra
seemed to wako everyone up and cause
them to enter into the spirit of the hour
witli renewed animation. It seemed
like old times to have the orchestra
ouuo more, and while the dancers have
enjoyed the mueic Bt the former parties,
the added instruments and new music
were greatly eujoyed and enhanced the
pleasure of dancing.
Everyone is anxious for information
concerning the new railroad scheme.
We understand the survey will be made
at an early date, and when the practi
cability cf the move is assurred, then
watch The Dalles smoke. There will
be no difficulty in pushing the work if
our people see the benefit which will be
derived thcrefrcm.
Gov. T. T. Geer Thursday sent a tele
gram of condolence to Mrs. Garrett A.
Hobart, at Paterson, New Jereey, on the
demise of the late Vice-President Ho
bart, as follows: "The people of Ore
gon join with those of the nation in
sharing with you the sorrow that has
overtaken your household, and their
sympathy is extended in tills hour of
your great affliction."
The principles of charity ore being in
stilled into the minds of the children of
the county, A few weeks ago a circular
letter was sent out from the office of the
county school superintendent giving the
school children of the county au op
portunity to make donations of clothing,
canned fruit, etc,, to the Boys' and
GlrU' Aid Society of Portland. A few
of the schools have arranged to respond
by bringing their gi'ts to the school
house on Wednesday prececdlng Thanks
giving. Donations from The Dalles
public school will be received, boxed
and shipped by Judge Blakcley. C. D.
Thompson, principal of the Hood River
school, is appointed to receive all con
tributions from that valley, Miss Cora
Copple from Viento and F. M. 13.
Chnstain for Cascade Locks.
An accident which proved to bo n
fortunate one from the fact that much
harm usually results from such occur
rences, happened yesterday at 3 o'clock
abcut a hundred yards above thi Wasco
warehouse, when engine No. 85, which
brought in passenger train No. 1, ran
into an open switch. A cattle car' was
struck and badly demoralized, but for
tunately no one was injured.
This is the way an exchange states the
case : Next year we may expect to read
something like the following in the daily
papers: About 10 o'clock this morning
a horseless milk wagon loaded down
witli cowless milk collided with a brain
less rider on a chainless wheel. The
luckless wheelman was badly injured,
and being homeless he was taken in a
horseless cab to a home for the friend
less. There are a number of men in The
Dalles who should be taking a trip with
Ed Marshal, just sentenced to seven
months imprisonment by the U. S.
marshal at Yakima for selling liquor to
Indians. That's the way we used to do
business when the government had a
deputy marshal stationed here; but now
the offenders are as bold about breaking
the law as any one could possibly be,
and yet go unmolested.
Every few weeks the metubeva of the
High school geologv class take a jaunt
out into the c .in. y and spend the day
in studying the various rock formations.
This morning a wagonette load left for
the Washington side and visited Wish-
ram, the Indian village up the river.
Such trips are not only beneficial in the
pursuit of their studies, but provide a
very pleasant outing and change from
the tediousness of the school room.
A member of the O. R. & N. engineer
corps says that at a point on the road
above Mosier iB another eliding mount
ain like the one near Cascade Locks.
Rocks keep eliding aud raising up the
ties and pushing the track towards the
river. His party explored the top of
the mountain, where they found the
skull of a mountain goat with the horns
complete. They also found Eeveral net
riiied trees and parts of trees. Glacier.
It will be good news to many Dalles
people to learn that Messrs. W. II. Biggs,
A. Murcliie and David Fulton, of Wasco,
have purchased the hot springs at
Collins Landing and intend fitting the
property up so that visitors to that
place may receive the benefit from the
healing properties of the water, and also
be turuished a good camping ground.
Thu spring is equal to that at Wind
river, and with proper accommodations
will become a popular resort.
Several months ago a man by the
name of Ed Marshal was arrested hero
under the charge of horse stealing and
indicted. He, however, furnished bonds
to appear before the last grain! jury, but
failed to show up. Yesterday the shoriff
received a letter from the United States
marshal at Yakima saying that the
fellow had been tpken up there for sell
ing liquor to Indians, and sentenced to
seven montls in the U. S. penitentiary
at McNeal island. When he has com
pleted his sentence there the marshal
says he will be turned over to the oflicers
here to be dealt witii for the horse steal
ing offense.
Our business houses are now taking
great interest in preparing for the Mer
chants' Jubilee Carnival to be given by
the ladieB of the Good Intent Society in
the near future. A carnival which had
the same object in view was given here
several years ago; but it was conducted
on a different plan. The eutire evening
is to be taken up with the advertising
entertainment, and each person repre
senting a business house giyes a recita
tion, song, or In some way sets fortli the
merits of the firm they represent. There
are some very catchy parodies and
witticisms which cannot fail to call at
tention to the goods advertised,
The order has gone forth which will
remove the railroad shops and round
house from Starbuck to Winona. This
is a result of the change of schedule on
the Spokane-Portland train of the O. It.
ScN., which seems to hit Starbuck pretty
hard. The arrangement in regard to
the runs of conductors as at present out
lined is that they will run from Spokune
to Umatilla. That town Is not as pleas
ant a place to lay over as Walla Walla,
where the conductors now lay over, and
they may be subsequently given tlio
long run to Portland, The trains will
not make the proper connections to en
able them to double back to Spokano
immediately from Umatilla,

Jim McHaley, who had for the past
three years suffered considerable josh
ing for holding his wool for better prices,
sold his three years' clip?, 104,703
pounds, at Heppuer's warehouse this
week to Silberman Bros., of Chicago,
at 15 cents per pound, receiving a check
for $15,718.95 for the eame. The deal
was made through Mr. Consor, and
Mn McHaley, who two years ago whb
offered seven cents for his wool, has
made about $7,000 by holding. Jim is
square onto his jb and it is now his
time to laugh. This is tlio best prico
paid hero for many yeare, and the big
gest individual deal that has yet been
consummated.
The br st price ever paid in tills coun
ty for beef cattle wbb that received by
Oscar Thompson and R. N. Stan field "n
Butter Creek this week. Oacir sold 150
head to a Seattle firm of Klondike ship
pers at 5) cents per pound, 50 head to
be delivered at Echo on March 1st, and
100 head on April 1st, Mr. Thompson
having received $4,000 down. Mr. Stan
field Eold a large number to tho same
parties at the same price. They are tiie
fine big steers raised by Minor & Mar
latt,and the shippers have been guaran
teed 50 cents per pound for them de
livered at Dawson City. This will make
most of the steers worth $70 here at
home, which is the highest price ever
known. Heppner Times.
Schools at Vlrn'o nud the Lock.
School district No. 1, Cascade Lock",
has been in session for the past ten
weeks, and has a total enrollment of
ninety pupils in the two departments.
Mr. T. M. B. Chastain, of Victor, is
nrincipal and Miss Erina E. Benson as
sistant teacher. The grade work of
both rooms is planned on J the state
course of study nnd the beneficial effects
of it can already be seen. Quite a large
number of readable books are to be
found in the school library nnd they
show signs of having been used. While
tho school rooms are not modern in plan,
yut they aro well fnrnNlied with patent
desk", liylopl.ito blackboard, and n few
pictures mlorn the walls. A fiiendlv
cmtest exists between tlio primary
pupils mid tlio-t) of the grammar grades
as to which room shall receive tlio least
number of tardy marks, tho fnct to bo
proclaimed by tlio room that exhibits
Old Glory. The children of tho primary
room have held the laurels for the last
few weeks.
It would bo wrong to say that Miss
Cora Copple wields the rod in ecr.ool
district No. 5(1, at Viento, for she pre
fers to Kovern rather by love than fear.
Twenty-eight bright girls and boys are
enrolled in this school and are comfort
ably seated on patent detks, nnd tho
school is furtiifhed with siood black
board, wall imp?, etc. The district has
a good school house, holds six months'
school in thu year and is entirely out of
debt. The school board has just started
a echool library by purchasing the sup
plementary reading book"! recommended
in the state c mtsi of stu lv. It is pleas
ing to remark that the pupils of this
school are exceptionally good in reading.
