J-C. Johnston came in this morning
from Dufur. He seems to liuve re
covered from the effecU of a mistake
which ho made a week ago yesterday in
taking 7,' grains of corrosive sublimate
instead of a quinine tablet which ho
went behind the preoption case at
the drug store to help hlmeelf to. It
came near causing his death ; but taught
him a lesson, and in tho future ho will
take his medicine according to a doctor's
prescription.
Rev. Frank Spaulding is in tho city

Chaplain Gilbert's last visit to tho
city assured him a good audience last
night and a very attentive- ono it proved.
None could listen to a recital of exper
iences in tho Philippines as given by
him, and not be highly entertained. His
manner at first attracts, and in con
junction with his happy choice of sub
jects which are most Interesting to his
listeners, holds his audiences during his
entire lecture, and makes them feel en
lightened and thoroughly pleased.
Tho many friends of Friendship lodge
No. U, K. of P., who enjoyed their hospi
tality last night at their hall, wero
particularly fortunate, so happily had
the evening's entertainment been ar
ranged. The hours wero mostly devoted
to dancing, the Jiettlngen orchestra,
accompanied by Miss Sampson at the
piano, furnishing tiio music. Inter
sporsed with tho dancing was a short
musical program consisting of a solo by
MiBsCushing, a duett by Mrs. Jayne
and Mrs. Groat and a solo by Will
Frank, encores lengthening out the pro
grain somewhat and greatly pleasing
the audience.
Roberts may not bo permitted a seat
at Washington, but just tho samo a
largo number of the samo ilk are seat
ing themselves throughout the United
States with the intention of staying and
converting to their faitii as many as
possible. Every few weeks a number of
these missionaries mako their appear
ance In The Dalles, and under the ap
pellation of Latter Day -Saints hold
meetings, and no doubt there are always
a number of susceptible ones who are
influenced by their teaching. They may
claim they do not believe in polygamy,
but for the good of the country at large,
any faith which has even the slightest
connection with such a belief should be
avoided. True, this may bo a land of
religious liberty ; but at tho same time
it is not a land where any practice how
ever objectionable and detrimental can
be carried on under the name of re
ligion. There may be no law to prevent
these people holding forth wherever
they may chooee; but individual) v the
residents of tho city may use their in
fluence against their teachings and
should do bo.

A Call Mail for rontofllon Keyi anil
ltecolptn.
Tho poBloffico depart mont has di
rected a general redemption of all out
standing keys for postofllco boxes at The
I Dalles office. You will please to present
all keys Held by you, together with the
receipt issued to you for tho key deposit,
to mo within thirty days from tho date
oi ttiis notice. lioxes will ho closed
against all key holdera who fall to com
ply with this call.
H. H. Riddei.l, P. M.
Such was the notice found today in
all boxes at tho efllco, surprising those
who received them and calling down up
on tho head of the guiltless postmaster
a etorin of indignation from those who
fail to realize that he is only executing
orders and that the key business will
fall so heavy on his shoulders that it
would drive a weaker nature to take
refuge in whis-key, and eventually r
sort to tho Key-ley cure. Yet this is
but a single example of tho red tape
measures employed by tho department
Tho postmaster deeply regretB the fact
that such an order has been issued, and
would gladly overcome it if possible;
but a perusal of the following, received
some days since, will give his orders re
garding tiio same:
"Sin You are hereby instructed to
call upon all key holders at your post
office to present their keys and key do
posito receipts to you for examination.
You will close boxes against all key
holders who fail to comply with this call
for keys within thirty days from tho
date thereof. At the expiration of that
time yon will carefully prepare a record
of each key by its distinguishing num
ber, the name of tho holder thereof, and
the amcunt deposited therefor. You
will return keyB and give receipts for
deposits to all who are found to bo en
titled thereto. You are not permitted
to return a deposite for any key nor to
allow credit therefor until the identical
key for which it was paid to the post
master and the identical receipt issued
therefor by the postmaster, are both re
turned. Yon will declare all deposits
not tepresentcd by keyB forfeited, and
tiansfer tho amount thereof from the
redemption fund to the forfeituro fund.
Respectfully,
Pi:nuv S. Heath,
First Asst. Postmaster General.
The idea is to establish a key record.
But as the law has never been enforced
here, it is safe to say that out of the
1000 keys outstanding, not fifty receipts
therefor will be found and the owners
will be compelled to pay twenty cents a
piece for keys or forfeit their boxes.
While all will feel tho injustice of
compelling them to pay double for the
keys; yet the only alternative eeems to
be to acceed to tho request (or command)
and thus cause as little difficulty aB
possible.

The attention of tho members of
