Tho verdict of a great many of the
musical critics present ut tho last
concert was to tho ell'oct that the chorus
"Niagara," from "II Trovatore," whs
itself worth tho price of admission. This
will be repeated tonight, and four others
of equal merit.

From n letter to Mr. Simeon Bolton,
received this morning from Kev. U. F.
Hawk, we learn that the operation on
his little son Itaymond occurred yester
dny morning and at the time of writing
the lad was still asleep. Of the result of
the operation Mr. Hawk speaks as fol
lows : "The Doctors found somo diseased
bone. I nm well-pleased with this opera
tion. They have found the seat of the
trou bio and we are no longer working in
tho dark. They found the trouble in the
spot I have been saying they would find
it. I think, there is a good chance for
tho boy. Ho is very pale and weak, but
if the trouble is removed he will booh
get strength, Mrs. Hawk is feeling real
well nnd is very hopeful."
A liootl Wnniiin Ciiino,
We have to chronicle the passing away
of Fannie Sargent Hunsnker, beloved
daughter of Mr. and Mrs, I. N. Saigent,
at tho homo of her father this morn
ing, at 2 o'clock.
She had spent tho last two weeks with
her parents, nnd feelinit unusually well
last evening she mot a few of her friends,
and not until within u couple of hours
of her deatli was it icalized that the
end was so near. All that physicians
and kind und loving friends could do,
was dono for her, and she passed from
this earth, like the falling asleep of a
child.
Fannie Sargent was born nt Mineral
Point, Wisconsin, July 3, 1850 and
crossed the plains with her parents in
180'-'. film wiib married at their home
In Mitchell, Nov., 4, 1880 to Mr. Frank
Hunsaker, by whom she had two sons,
who have now reached maturity.
Tho funeral will tako pluuo from the
residence of Mr. J. N. Sargent nt 2
o'clock Wednesday afternoon. The
services nt tho gravo will bo conducted
by the Women of Woodcraft of which
society she was uu honored member.
After Sunday, March 18th, the barber
shuns will be kept closed nil day Sun-
diiyn. By order ol The Dalles Barbers'
Union.

F. J. Knepper, veterinary surgeon,
U. S. A., from Apirri, Luzon, to his
wife in Portland, under date of January
17, says:
"Apatri is situated on tho north coast
of Luzon, And la considered the coolest
and healthiest spot of the ieland. It
has good drainage, eandy soil, and is sur
rounded by a most beautiful and pro
ductive country. Theclimnto eo far jest
suits me is not too warm of nights to
sleep under blankets. It rains about
every other night but soon dries off.
"This is a groat tobacco port. Theto
wore four ships here loaded with the
weed waiting to go out when we arrived
on the (ith inst., ami the boats that are
here cannot handle all that Is ready to
hi taken to Manila. This wili be a rich
and productive port of tho islands when
Uncle Sam gets things straightened out,
and the natives understand our good
intentions.
' The city has a public square, or plaza,
with a bandstand in tha center, sur
rounded by two-story stone buildings.
About one hundred such buildings stand
iu the place. The nativea have huts
made of bamboo, built in sections five
and sis feet high. The natives are now
returning from the interior, many coin
ing in every day. There are a number
of wealthy Spanish families here, but
they are preparing to return to Spain.
Major Wood's Wife is the only American
woman hero at present.
"Tho authorities are having the city
cleaned up in good shape. The natives
work with wooden paddies for shovels,
and some have only split bamboo,
sharpened at the end. One man w ith a
shovel would do as much work in one
hour as 10 of these will'do in a day.-We
had our kitchen whitewashed, and it
took two of them two davs. Thev took
the biiucks off a cocoanut and pounded
it soft on one end and used it for a brush.
"The natives are well dressed for this
country. The women wear long, loose
sacks nnd skirts and smoke cigars a foot
long nnd one inch thick. Tho wealthy
women of A pari i pnradethe streets with
long trains and flue embroidered ekirts ;
they all smoke, children included. The
markets are now run by the native
women. They have for sale meat, fish,
and a variety of nice green vgetables,
chickens and eggs, but prices are high.
One dollar in Mexican or 50 cents in
American money will buy a dozn eggs.
Fruit is cheap. Pineapples sell for 2Jo
cents each, and bananaB for 5 cents a
dozen. The merchants here are China
men, and they have just opened up since
we came here, as this port has only been
open to trade since January 1. I am
boarding witii a Spanish family, and pay
$1 per day. They try to cook as Ameri
cans do, as much as possible, and give
very good meals. Several of us expect
to start a mess as soon as we can get
things arranged. We bought a Btova
from a Spsniaid yesterday, and are get
tint! up u dish here and there. The
commissary will soon have everything
for tli i soldiers' comfort. Wo catch
rain water for use, as the wells are only
four or, five feet deep. Wood is very
scarce nnd high. It is about 12 miles to
the mountains, and the natives do not
seem to understand cutting and selling
fuel. The wood is split very fine nnd is
sold by (lie stick. Any man coming
here and starting a small saw mill would
have a bonanza, for there is none in
this part of the island. All lumber
has to be sawed by hnnd. There are
many ways n man with u few thousand
dollais could reap a fortune. The na
tives have money. One would think so,
to go out to the cockpit Sunday after
noon and see them bet on trie different
roosters. One cannot understand where
they get their money. It is tho reuulnr
Sunday sport among tho natives. Thsy
were almost wild with txeitement and
surprise when we landed the first mules
und horses from the Ivjnnox. They
beat u snare drum to call them together,
and they came from all directions.
When I showed them the shoes on the
horses' feet that capped the clininx.
"Our city is illuminated with oil
lamps. This Is said to be one of the
most healthy parts of the bland, aud
the officers who have been up tho valley
or river 50 or 100 miles say there are
some of the richest lands tlioy ever saw.
Corn, in all stages of growth can be
seen, lliey grow three crops u vear.
It is no troublo to raise chickens anil
hogs here, but I have seen only a few
cattle. The Filipino army drove them
off for meat. Tie carriboo, or water
buffalo, are quite numerous, Four com
panies of the Sixteenth leulais ate
stationed here; the rest of the regiment
Is at different points up the river."

he never saw a lot of better dressed or
more respectable looking people in his
life. The landlords Lave nothing to say
to the farming population any more as

rent for a little house he lias up on the
