"When Theodore Itoosrvelt has closed
tiie door of his home behind him the
Boldier, the statesman, tho reformer, the
writer, are all shut out, and only tho
husband and the father enter, says the
March Ladies' Home Journal. "His
devotion to his wife and children is
ideal. To the latter he is not only a
fattier, but also a big, overgrown brother.
One of liis chief delights is to get down
on all fours in the nursery and play bear
with the younger ones. When the little
bears tire he sometimes sings old Dutch
folk-eongs for them. Though his voice
was never intended for singing, there is
a certain quaintness and rough charm
about thube memories of Holland that
greatly delight t he children."
Hon. E. L. Smith, president of the
state board of horticulture, places the
acreage of commercial apple orchards in
Oregon at 10,500, with an average value
of $100 per acre, in making this esti
mate he feels convinced that the valua
tion would be increased fully 20 per
cent if ttie trees were planted on an
average of !J0 feet apart iustead of as in
so many orchards from 10 to 20 feet
apart, and that ttiere would be another
increase of 20 per cent in value if not
one of these orchards contained not over
a few varieties. There are too many
early varieties and too many of un
known fame to draw u ;ood trade in
the markets. At one trtut fair he
counted as unny as 130 varieties.
Willie, the 5-year-old son of Jailor
Fitzgerald, while playing with some
companions on the foot-log across Mills
creek, near the company's shops, fell'
into the creek, which is now n raging
torrent, and, before being rescued, was
swept down the creek a distance of
probably a hundred yards. While the
child was struggling iu the water and a
woman ou the bank was trying to reach
him, Oscar Syreen, a waiter iu tho
Columbia hotel, rushed to the spot and
dashing into the stream at the risk of
his own life lauded the lad safely on the
hank. The stream at the point where
the boy was rescued took Mr. Syreen to
the neck. The little fellow could not
swim, lint he beat the water with his
arms and fought bravely for his life,
lie was none the worse for his hath and
was able to walk home.
The following birth notice appears in

Owing to unforseen circumstances,
the minstrel performance of the D. G. &
A. C. football team has been indemnity
postponed, and will not be given on the
28th as advertised. Instead, Mr. Percy
Levin, who will be remembered by the
people of Tho Dalles, will produce, with
local talent, the great New York suc
cess, "The Wife." This is a play they
ran for two nights at the Lyceum thea
ter, and is produced by Mr. Levin by
spicial arrangement with Mr. Daniel
Frohman. The scenes are laid in Wash
ington City, und the play deals with
life at the national capital. It is in four
acts. The comedy is splendid and the
pathos and heart interest sorne.of the
most beautiful ever written. Herbert
Kelcy and Effle Shannon played it dur
ing its long run on this coaet. The fa
mous Frawley company, with Blanche
Bates, presented it with much success.
Some of the leading features that were
to be used in the minstrel will be, placed
between acts, thus making a continuous
performance.
The cast will be announced later, and
also the special features. The date has
been set as March 12th.
Those who saw "A Summer's Fancy"
presented under Mr. Levin's direction
will look forward with keen pleasure to
this production.
It will be lor the benefit of the D. C.
& A. C. football team.

Contractor H. W. Campbell, who was
awarded the contract for repairing botli
paved slopes on the sides of the loner
entrance to cascade locks canal, has
completed the work; in fact it was fin
ished several daya ago aDd fully two
months in advance of the time specified,
according to the Telegram. The govern
ment awarded the contract for $70,000.
After being inspected by United States
Engineer Captain W. W. Hartp, the
work was pronounced satisfactory, with
the exception of li email amount of grad
ing to be done above the rock work.
The contract was concluded profitably
by the contractor.
The damage to the locks was the re
sult of ttie flood of 1894, and ttie delay
in starting the work was due to the di
vision of opinion held by many. Some
thought the repairs being made by con
tract would not be satisfactory, and that
the work could not be finished within
ttie time specified. Mr. Campbell has
been at work there since 1899, with Cap
tain Harts as supervisor.
As the pavement bus a thickness of
three feet it was necessary to utilize a
large amount of stone, which waB ob
tained a short distance below the scene
on the river bank. The pavement has
been backed with rock and not sand, as
was the caBe before, and it is believed
the work will withstand coming floods.

AUGUST BUCHLER, Prop.
Of the product of this well-known brewery the United States Health
Reports for June 28, 1900, says: "A more supeiior brew never entered
ttie labratory of the United States Health reports. It is absolutely devoid
of the slightest trace of adulteration, but on the other hand is composed of
the best of malt and choicest of hops. Its tonic qualities are of the high
est and it can be used with the greatest benefit and satisfaction by old and
young. Its use can conscientiously be prescribed by tho physicians with
the cereainty that a better, purer or more wholesome beverage could not
possibly be found."

from this cause. A bottle of Iloechee's
