A story is told of a Scottish minister
traveling iu Belgium who, on arriving at
BrugeB, looked about or a cloak-room.
His acquaintance w.ith the language of
the country was, however, so imperfect
that he failed to make the porter in at
tendance understand what he wished.
Being a man of resource, it flaBhed across
his mind to try a Latin phrase likely to
be understood iu a Roman Catholic
country. "Jlequmcat in pair, Baid he,
pointing to his property. The porter
smiled, nodded his head to show that he
caught ttie traveler's meaning, snatched
up the portmanteau and took it off to
the pluce where "left luggage" was kept.

lieve iu nothing if not in doing a thing
up in proper style. In pursuance of
this rule and In order to welcome the
incoming class which graduates this

they will take a private excursion down

SHALL WE CELEBRATE?
The QneRtlon ! Now Up to the liiifllneM
Men of the City.
Pursuant to the announcement in Thk
Chronicle the members of The Dalles
Driving Association met in tho club
rooms Wednesday evening, and after
discussing the situation an i arriving at
the conclusion that the people of The
Dalles desired a rousing celebration on
the Fourth, two cotntnittes were an-
pointed, one to interview the saloon
keepers and restaurant and hotel men,
and the other to interview the business
men on the question of raising the
necessary funds. On the former com
mittee were appointed C. J. Stubling,
J. M. Toomey and Fred Lempke; and
on the latter, L. E. Crowe, E. M. Will
iams and J. C. Hostetler.
It was considered that not less than
$1000 will be required to make the cele
bration anything like what it ought to
be, but it was believed there would be
no great difficulty in raising this sum.
These committeee will report their suc
cess or failure, as the case m iy be. to
another meeting to be held Monday
night, when, if everything is favorable
as expected, the necessary committees
will be appointed and preparations for
the event fairly launched.
Everything now dependB on the re
sponse made to the two committees ap
pointed to solicit funds. It will be a
great disappointment if this responee is
not reasonably liberal.
