inches high, It ii believed to be the

Word cornea from Kingeley that a fine

A. L. Anderson, u railroad contractor,

This lecture will be illustrated by over
125 superior stereopticon views. The

Old-timers, who were acquainted with
Charley Hall, who was for many
years u resident of The Dalles till he
was stricken almost helpless some five
or six years ago with locomotor utaxia,
a peculiar affection of the spinal cord,
will be interested in knowing that he is
still an inmate of the Good Samaritan
hospital and that while there is no hope
of his recovery of the uso of his lower
nembors his life bids fair to be pro
onged lor years. We' aro told that at
times he Buffets intense pain that can
only be relieved by powerful opiates.
Charley was n kindly, genial soul as
ever live 1 and his many friends in The
Dalles sincerely regret his sad and hope
less, attliction.
The Weekly Crop Bulletin of the 29th
says: "Reports of damage to the fruit
crop by frosts are numerous, but not
general. Considerable strawberry bloom
has been killed in Southern Oregon and
in the Hood River valley. This dam
age will not materially reduce yields,
but will make the marketing of the crop
a week or two later than usual, Besides
he strawberries, peaches, Bpricots,
ears, silver prunes and cherries nave
nffured the most from frost. The Ital
ian or lellenberg prunes are nsarlv
through blooming, and the young fruit,
has eet well and gives promise of abund
ant yields. Apples in most places are
now in full bloom, and as yet they have
suffered no harm from from frosts."
From J. W. Howard, of Prinoville,
who lately arrived here from Crook
county with about 250 head of cattle,
we learn that when he left home there
waB quite a talk among the wool men of
Crook county of having their wool
hauled all the way from there to The
Dalles by wagon instead of by rail from
Shaniko. As far as cattle is concerned,
Mr. Howard, who is a large shipper,
declares emphatically that ho will never
ship a hoof at present rates of .f5S a car
from Shaniko to Troutdale. He can do
better. He came here by way of the
Warm Springs reservation, where he
had only one light toll, that, namely,
across the Deschutes near the agency.
He had good open range all the way till
he came to Wapinitia, and the cattle ar
rived in fine condition, losing practic
ally nothing on the way, and certainly
no more than they would have lost on
the cars. One steer that he weighed at
home and here for a test had lost noth
ing. Mr. Howard says he had no diffi
culty in procuring a pues through the
reservation, and ho supposes any one
cojild get one. All his pass cost him
was the pay of one Indian policeman at
$1.50 a day, who accompanied the cattle
while they were within the boundary of
the reservation.
Frank Fleming, of Dead Dog, who had
tiie misfortune to suffer :i compound
fracture of one of his legs a few weeks
ago in Portland through the fall of a
horse he was riding, is expected here
tomorrow on his way home, Thk
CimoNici.i: is pleased to learn, on the
authority of Senator F, P. Mays, that
Mr. Flemiug has recovered steadily from
the first, and although the fracture was
painful and necessarily slow of recovery,
there was never a moment when the
amputation of the wounded member
was entertained, as Mr. Fleming's part
ner, Jim Brown, told Tin: CmtoNiei.i: a
couple of weeks ago, while on his way
home from Portland. Mr. Brown gave
the attending physician as his author
ity, but there is hardly a doubt that the
doctor was thinking of another man
whose leg was amputated about that
time. In any case, Tim Ciiuonici.k does
not for one moment suspect that Mr,
Brown told anything he did not believe
to be true, and we have little doubt that
no one will be better pleased than ho to
learn that he was mistaken and that Mr.
Fleming bus recovered as rapidly as
could have been expected under the
circumstances.
The presence of over a score of young
ladles such as gathered at the home of
Mrs. B. F. Laughlin last night to spend
the evening with Miss Adams and Miss
Lord, was in iteelf the signal for a merry
time, and for perfectly enjoying every
featuro provided by the hostess (or their
entertainment. After social greeting.
each was provided with a card bearing
an unfinished quotation, which by
matching with another secured them
partners for a gatno of words. Soon all
wore engaged in studying out and plac
ing together syllables forming some
word indicated. Much amusement wiib
thus furnished, particularly to those
who at the close of the game found
themselves the winners of a prize and
the envied of those less fortunate. All,
however, were soon furnished a conso
lation pri.u in the form of a splendid
lunch, which tho ybung ladies enjoyed
in a manner which attested its merit.
Tho later hour was passed with n lively
game which was kept up until the mid
night hour. Although having met Miss
Lord hut a few times, her new-Iound
friends deeply regretted the necessity of
bidding her "good bye" as well as good
night. Mrs. Laughlin wbj insisted in
entertaining by Mrs. Houghton and Mrs.
Lueddemann.
Profeseor Lackaby, who will have
charge of the grass-experiment station
in Union county, arrived here this morn
ing and after stopping over lef.k. on tho
afternoon train for Portland. Professor
Lackaby told Tin: Ciiuo.vicm: that much
against his will The Dalles had been
abandoned and the state lands in Union
county chosen for experimenting with
grasses. Union county was no place for
that work. The professor had first ond
last insisted that The Dalles was the
best place, but the 0. Ii. & X. Company
was determined that The Dalles should
Da ignored and the company's repre
sentatives had their way. The O. Ii. &
N people-had a good many strings to
their how and their influence with the
regents of the Agricultural college was,
ot course, greater than the professor's
However, in spite of them, it is almost
certain that an experiment station will
lie started here to determine what kind
of vegetation is best adapted to hold
down the drifting sands that lie close to
the banks of the Columbia river. The
big sand drift on the Catiiolis Mission
property has been offered the govern
ment, as large an acreage as may be
needed, and Professor Lackaby expects
a lease to be executed in a short time
when he will return here and commence
the preparatory work that is necessary
for the planting of the grasses in the
fall. The season is too far advanced for
planting at this time.
