Betail and wholesale prices. 15-lw The new weather man, whose name is now to be a "household word" and public property for newspaper comment, must be a "warm number," for he launches forth today with a prediction of "fair and warmer" when it never felt more like "colder and Bkating" than this afternoon, Wong Quong, whose case has been mentioned in connection with the bank robbery here nine years ago, and who baa been tried in Walla Walla for grand larceny, was found guilty of that charge on Saturday, so tiiat he will at least uffdr for a minor offense, whether Waeco county prosecutes or not. We are much pleased to see that the High School alumni Is making a move toward providing some sort of welcome for the university glee club, which will give an entertainment in the Baldwin on tbe night of the 28th. It will not only be a fitting compliment to tbe university boys, but a pleasure to our young neo pie to meet them. A bappy crowd, chaperoned by 'Babe Mays, departed last Saturday for Hay Greek, where for two Aaye they were II l t t t k ' ; m uy enieriumeu uy jur. arm Aire. matt ouiuinerviue ,hhu mr, .cuwarus.

This morning tlio marshal arrested Oakley Harkins, n young man charged witli vagrancy, and in lieu of his $2 will spend tho day in the city jail. Harkins is not a couiplote stranger liure, having been a frequent visitor in former years, when his unclu was in business here. His is the old old story of opportunities neglected and lack of ambition until he is now a common trninp, a disgrace not I only to himself, but to all connected . with him. I On complaint of his step-father, J, H. Matthews, Carl Cutting whs thiB morn ing committed to the charge of thu etatu reform school at Salem, and will bo taken down in the morning. Carl is a boy of about 14 years, who hiiB proven himself a truant, untruthful, dishonest, incorrigible and vicious, so that his parents find they nre unable to control him, and therefore deem it for his future benefit to place him where he will be subject to morn strict surveillance. Just as the first boat whistle tooted forth this morning the horses attached to the laundry delivery Avagoh came to the conclusion that they were tired of thiB wasliee washes allhe time and would runny .runny forV chafigo, bo they lit out tin the road leading from the dock. They had, calcu lated without the beautiful nniddv roadB, and'by the time they reached tho . r . f . i i i i. iuu ui iu Kriuio miu txpeuueu enougn steam to run two or three laundries and were ready to quit and "he good." This afternoon M. T. Nolan received a telegram from Congressman M. A. Moody, dated Washington, December 18th, which says that Tongue has been' appointed on tho river and harbor crm mittee, and also is chairman ot)ie ir rigation of lands. Mr. Moodv isk mem ber of the committee on public rands, also mines and mining and expendi tures of interior department. Oregon is receiving liberal recognition, which is highly satisfactory to its members. Passenger train No. 1 won't do to bank on, and is perhaps the most fickle number in the bunch. If you want it to be late, it's early ; if you want it to be on time, it's- off. So say two of our prominent citizens who intended to take it Saturday but instead got taken in They bustled into the Umatilla House a short time after it ought to be due, aeked no questions but proceeded to wait for No. 1. They chatted about, and to a person up a tree it looked ae if the better looking of the two was intend ing to visit schools in the neighboring district, while the younger and more stylish was about to make a record of proceedings in another section of the county. If the clerk (at the hotel) had any suspicion of the state of affairs ho was cute enough to keep mum. Finally about the bewitching hour of 0:30, one of them informed Mr. Fish that they were tri be present at lodge exercises at Hood River that evening. Being asked what train they would take, he replied "No. 1." With that peculiar twinkle in his.eye, Judd said, "You'll have to wait till tomorrow then. No. 1 left several hours ago." The door wasn't opened very wide, but they managed to got out, and next timd will ask the old, old question, "How about No. 1?" Lubur of I.ovc. In many vocations in life a cut in salary, although by no means appre ciated, is not necessarily hazardous to the unfortunate employe; but 'tis not ofton that he wiio is engagad in the highest of all callings receives such a princely salary that be can well survive tbe slightest deduction, and yet tho cut is made in spite of consequences. Such a case is that which was called to the attention of the Congregational society in this city in a letter written by Cephas Clapp to Mrs. E. M. Wilson and read at last night'sEervice, in which lie re lates how the Missionary Society reduced ttie yearly salary of a minister stationed at Hubbard $50, in the hope that the three charges to which he preached the gospel would make up the deficit. Such, however, was not the case and it is quite impossible for tho pastor to support his large family. Tiie sympathy of this society was at once elicited upon receipt of tbe letter and offerings made yesterday as follows : Evening service, (8; Sunday school, $7; Junior Endeavor, 5. Tbe ladioe, however, were foremost in the labor of love, and at an afternoon party Wednesday at the home of Mra. John Sommervllle raised $11 toward the fund. The method employed was a novel one, each lady being called upon to contribute according to her hoiglit, a nickel per foot, and a penny for each additional inch. The tallest proved to be five feet ten and a half inches, and the shortest under five feet. Beside having the satisfaction of work well done, a very enjoyable afternoon was spent. . Use Clarke & Falk's Koeafoarn for tbe teeth. however, Santa Claim' Flrnt Visit. Old Santa Olnus must have thought that well begun was half dono when he Btopped at PeaBo fc Mays' store aa he began his visit to our city, judging from tho good work he did in tho grocery de partment and thu number of things he deposited there that fairly mako your mouth water. Then ho arranged thorn in Bticli a tompting m miner, first form ing all sorts of devices out of tho cannod goods and then decorating thum with evergreen wreaths. The dried fruits ho encased in glass caeqs nnd put them where everyone could seo thorn, placing all mnnnor of baskotB in cloeo proximity no lie could till thorn quickly OhristmaB cvo. He know that Christmas wouldn't bo Christmas without good groceries, and also that they'd be more tempting when bjtight at such a neat looking storo. Nobody wants even thoBo tempt ing coconnuts, bananas and othor dainties, much lees evory-day necessar ies, unices they como from a clean storo. But Srnta's a sly old fox, and some girl has been whispering in his ear that she likes to be remembered, but that a sweet remembrnnco is really what she wants, nnd bo he arranged a regular bower of evergreens and placed instido just such candy as would make Buy girl answer "yes" if she were aeked to nc cept some, and no doubt niariy of our fair maidens will iiavo reason to be grateful to Pease & Mays for introducing such sweets. But tho littlo ones wero not forgotten and there is plenty of candy to fill their stockings with, which" is not quite so rich nor expensive. In fact, if ho hadn't visited another store, he lias left plenty of good things right there to maku Christmas n merry one for all. A Frightful Idaho Wreck. Friday evening about 7 o'clock an extra freight, carrying a load of rails for the extension of the Northern Pacific in Idaho, near Lewiston, started down a grade about seven miles east of Ken drick, at a terrific rate, the rails of the track being covered with ice and snow. Tho breaks refused to hold and the con ductor cut loose the caboose from the rest of the train, bringing it to n stand still. A mile and a half east of Ken drick four cars were ditched and the track torn up for a distance of a quarter of a mile. There were then fifteen cars and the two engines running at in creased speed toward Kendrlck. When the flying train struck the cast switch of the Kendrick mill track at tho east end of the yard the entire train was ditched. Every car and both engines wore com pletely wrecked and thrown to the cde of the river. The track at that pciut was torn up for 1200 yards. Engineers Arthur E. Bain and John A. 0,,'clen, Fireman Earl Bradshaw and Brukeman A. Badge, all of Spokane, were killed outright, and Fireman J. E. Peterman fatally wounded.

Hahtii & Maho.v. 10-18-10-20 A HlfUE CUJIK roit VKOU1. Twenty-live Years' Oomtant Uao With out a Failure. The first indication of croup is hoarse ness, and in a child subject to that disease it may betaken as a euro sign of the approach of an attack. Following tills hoarseness is a peculiar rough cough. If Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is given as soon as tho child becomes hoarse, or even after the croupy cough appears, it will prevent the attack. It is used in many thousands of homes in this broad land and never disappoints the anxious mothers. We have yet to learn of a single instance in which it has not proved effectual. No other preparation can show audi a record twenty-five years' constant use with out a failure. For eale by Blakeley & nouguion. A Thouiand Tonguei Could not express tho rapture of Annie E.
