New wheat is coming in in small quan tities, but no price has been fixed as yet. -The jSuropean demand is so small that prices quoted are only nominal. .The crop cannot be accurately estimated yet, lint If la ttitnivfit f li a aninliio will ViaHl be up ta last year. Samples coming in from the Inland Empire are not encour aging, and compared with the crop of last year, there will not be a large percentage of good' wheal. Some samples appear to be chiefly "bran," and not worth grinding far flour says the Oregonian. ; : '.- ; ' Mr. Chat.

Sunday, about four miles east ot Mis sion, on the reservation, says tbe Eaut Ore- gotuaa. An Indian waanresning nis wneac in a manner nsea .to tome extent oy tne couDer -colored farmers. A corral is filled about half-way to the top of the fence with grain, and a band of cayuses driven rapidly arrund inaide,' their- hoofs separating the kernels from the chaff. This particular In- dian happened to be . smoking a cigarette while operating bis novel "machine, and a spark t nre to tbe straw... Xne corral and contents were destroyed and aieo tne aoor- Seine's tepee with all his belongings. VV. H. (Utherine has a farm adjoining, and it wot only after desperate ecorts that he, witb a force' of severatmetr anceeeded in saving bit own grain. . Had the fire obtained a start and spread to his field,' a large amount of damage might have been caosod in the neighborhood. It may not be generally known that when this region was - a portion of Cackatnaa county, in tbe early 50's, Mr. D. Butler was constable for Dalles pr. oinct, and bad ecca lion to serve a subpoena on a witness resid ing near Ft. Hall, now Idaho. That was then within the bmits of tbe county over whion a justice of the peace had jurisdic tion. Mr. Butler vividly describes his ride throngh this wild region with the judicial writ in his inside pocket, feeling not the least fear ot Indians or road ageacs, because he waa armed with tbe authority of the law. He waa then much younger than he it now, and the country waa new to him. Later on, after he had become aocuatomed to the hab its of the wild and woolly west" be placed more reliance on Colt's .latest patent or a Henry repeating nfli than on a sahrmia from a Dalle jim.ii.-u tvjurt. Hw. etury awakened great iurcet and ohaiaet the at tention of hit audience until some inquisi tive individual inquired what uii!eigu be was allowed tor doing audi s rvice. This elicited no answer, and the thrilling story if a constable serving a civil writ in Oregon territory, a thouaand miles distant from the magistrate's court, came- to an abrupt end ing. -' ' '- Frqra I'ri'tav's Daily'.

These two old friends have been on thi coast half a century. They were Olney Fry, sr., 90 years of age, who resides in Albany, and who has lived in Linn county absut 50 years. The other veueiable patriarch was Hon. T. J. Crooks, who settled in Lion county in 1848.but who now lives at Goldendale, Wash. He is 84 years old. A man who has been traveling over the country illustrates bow most farmers care for their machinery. He said while driving along the road the ether day he noticed a man on the root of a largj Darn anxiously viewing the surrounding country. When asked what he waa doing np there bo re plied that he waa looking for his binder, that bis wheat was ready to cut and he had forgotten which held he had left the ma chine in last fall. Moscow Mirror: Ben Shaw retnrLed Sat urday from the Weips valley, where ho went in seirch of a location. While look ing over the country he discovered what has the appearance o being a mound raited over a quantity ot whisky bid from the In dian! and Jost ah nt 20 years ago. At the time of the discovery he did not know what ti;e mcuud contained. He expects to re turn at tome future time and try and sam ple the cuutents of the hidden.kegs. . Seuuter: Reports come from Florence that the campers about tbe cape are making terrible slaughter ot the sea lions, which are so plentiful along the coast in that vicinity. They seem to have no particular object in killing tho animals, but simply shoot them for the fun of the thing. Resi dents think this kind cf sport should be stopped, as if it ii continued it will be but a short time nntil the lions will become ex tinct. If the campers enjoy hunting tbey could find plenty of game in the mountains near at band. - ' - -.

The proposition is to have six city saloons, one in each .ward, where beer will he sold for 5 cents a drink and whisky at 25 cents. They are to be kept open from 5 A. at. till 10 P. M., and will sell nothing except what is bought ot Sioux rails wholesalers and manufacturers. Of course, no other saloo. s are to be licensed, and the profits of the business are to belong to the city.

S3 far as any record poet, this was the first honse built in Oregon. Lee Parker and Whitman were tbe first mis-' ttonarica. J. hey came in answer to a call from the Indiana made in 1832.

What ft the status of this work at present? Can Oregon delegation see secretary of war and urgently request him that bids be let nnder contract system as early as possible and work resumed? This afternoon tbe following answer was received: j Washington, D. C, Aug. 11, 1892. To John Micliell and others, The Dalles, Ore gon: Formulating contract and specifications occasion delay. Major Haodburv aska fur instructions, if the contract must be let for the entire, work, regardless of the available appropriations, or for proportionate work. The department August 2d directed that the law ii mandatory. The entire work waa to be contracted for and advertised at once. It requires Major Handbnry to submit spec ifications covering the entire work with the time and order for the completion, the con tractor being given the discretion to exceed the available appropriation. I have just argued with tho secretary of war to require the completion, regardless of the available funds. As I construe the law, all should be contracted for, and there ia no discretion. Tbe secretary is now considering this excep tion. Bikoeb Hermann. 0EEG0N W LATHEE, SEBVIOE, In sjo-operatlon With IT. H Weather Bureau, of the Department of Agriculture. Central Office Portland, Oregon. Crop Weather Bulletin, No. 10, for tceei ending Tuesday, August 9, 1S02: EASTERN OUKUO.S. - Weather There has been no rain dur ing tbe week except a few local showers ia portions of Baker and Union counties. The (empeiature bas been about noinial ; the extremes ranging from 6 to 105 degrees. Hot winds are reported from stations in the northeastern portion. Crops Wheat is being harvested stead ily and will be a fairly good crop except in some - portions of tb'e northeastern counties. Spring wheat has no't improved any since last reports; but continues to suffer from drought to some extent. Oats are doing well enough. Corn would be improved somewhat by a little rain. The fruit crop willbe light in some sections owing to early frosts. Crops in Gilliam county have almost perished from tbe effects of the hot winds, and the potato crop is said to be a total failure. Tbe weather conditions that have been ob tained during the past seven days have been, as a rule, favorable to vegetation in nearly, all sections of the state, and were all that could be desired lor harvesting purposes. . - -:-;. B. S. Paoce. v r . Local Forecast Official. Elective System at Faoifio University. . The educational advantages now offered to the young men and women of Oregon are coming to be as good at those of any state. Not only are there now a lare number of good tcbools,bnt tome of them offer as thor ough a course and as large a variety at the colleges ot the east." Particularly are we reminded of this by looking over tbe courses of Pacific University, located at Forest Grove. The elective system, which has now been made such a feature of eaatern courses, and has been accepted in full at the Stan ford University of California, has been very carefully provided at faoifio University. The general object of elective courses ia to allow students who wish to pursue epecial courses to select those branches suited to their purpose. The old college idea waa to put all tbe students throngh ti e tame course, not to much to prepare them for apecial work at to give them a general cul ture. The present idea is more practical. While aiming to provide culture, it also gives positive and definite knowledge in useful lines of action. At Pacific Univer sity, for instance, a man may give two years' study to chemistry; or two years, fnll study to applied uiathema i:a, meluding survey ing, etc.; or an equal timet; natural his tory; or to language, or to literature; or to muoic, etc. In this way, while haying a general knowledge of liberal enltnre, gradu ates become also specialists in some one par ticular, and are ready for practical work in that hoe. -... The elective system ia comparatively new. Io the University of Indiana, where it hat been tried most thoroughly, the beat results are reported. Somewhat contrary to expec tation, the language course bas been most chosen.' nearly half the students teleeting this, and Greek being the most popular of any language. Pacific University has been arranging its faculty with apecial reference to the require ment of an elective course having recog nized specialist in each field. Prof. J. W. Marsh, one of our most thorough classicists, retains the depurtmena of Latin and Greek, Prof. W. N.

H. 8 L. . - .-. r ., 1 ...v Pioneer Days. , - j . From- Tucadk jr"s Dally. In the sheriff's office thit morning Mr. T. A. Ward interested quite a number of lis teners by relating reminiscences of stage- j dnving in thit region in the early 60't, and : bit experiences with wild Indians and wilder 'cayuses are both thrilling and enter taining. He drove into Umatilla from Wil low Creek, a hen tbe former town had 3000 inhabitants aud was the liveliest point on the Columbia river. In those days, Mr. Ward saye, money was plentiful and times lively. - After hauling goods to -interior towns, teamsters would return with an abundance of "iiitby lucre," and basting aiong me aiaewaias ,ot -. Umatilla would throw, coats, flour, sugar, . etc.. into the street; in fact, all articles that are usually displayed outside of stores. Tbe merchant would make a hid on' for tbe goods, and when the influence of tbe benzine had died ; out, would easily collect his money. .Of course, tnose wbo liquidated bad the privi lege of hunting np the articles and possess ing tbe merchandise they had moved into the thoroughfares. Mr. Ward drove from ' Tbe Dallea to Celilo, betore the railroad waa constructed, and has a fund of adventures to relate regarding tbess trips if persons can get mm -wonoa up- just right. There is an unwritten history to Eastern Oreeon. which it equal to any romance w hen painted in appropriate colors oy a word artist. The Casoadei Looks.: Oregonian. In replj to bis cots of inquiry to tbe chief of cogtneers as to the manner, in wbicb tbe contract foi work on tbe Cas cades locks is to be let, Major Handbnry has been inlorpied jtbat the secretary of : war has decided tost . tbe act requiiet contracts to be ea'ertd i4to for tbe com pletion of each work to wbicb they re late, and to ibe full, amount of tbe esti- m&ta 1 a pun wbicb tbe .-appropriation is : based, r .s ; ' .. H . UH i i s In the judgment of tbe department it was tbe intention of congress to bave tbe eutire work of irxiproviojj tho canul at tbe oascadit oi tbe Columbia river adver tised at once, aoi so - derive all tne bene fit tbat could be obt sited by tbe success ful contractor's bating tbe assurance tbat be would bold tbe work to its completion. Bat while tbe whole work is to be con tracted for at one time, it s not expected that tbe contractor will, anticipate tbe action of congress by' performiog work in excess of tbe appropriation! tbat may be made from time to' time, unless be THE SAN FRANCISCO BOARD of HEALTH. We, the members of the Board of Health of the City and County of San Francisco, Cordially approve and recommend the Royal Baking Powder. It is absolutely pure and healthful, composed of the best . ingredients, of the highest strength and character. In our judgment it is impossible to make a purer or stronger Baking Powder than the Royal. Jos. R. Davidson, M. D. - Henry M. Fiske, M. D. Chas. McQuesten, M. D. T: J. Letournex, M. D. Members San Francisco 'Board of Health. prefer to do so. A project for the im provemettt, with specifications covering the entire work and the order and time in which it should be done, is to be sub mitted. The appropriation in the last river and harbor bill for the locks is $336,350 The amount that could be expected to good advantage during the- fiscal year ?ndinr June 30, 1893, as estimated by Major Handbnty, is $1,419,250. The clerks in Major Handburys office have been employed in preparing the plans and specifications for tbe work, but it will be still some little time before they can be completed. I will probably be necessary to adver tise for bids for about two moolbt, as tbe work is ooo of great magnitude and large contractors from the east will wish to come here and look over the ground be fore submitting bids. . Tbey will also re quire time to gel bids from sub-contractors for the gates etc , bolore tbey can bMi intelligently on tbis whole work. The new eight bonr law will also figure ia tbe matter, and will probably increase the cost nf tbe work 20 per cent. ' It is not likely that tbe work on tbe locks will be started np nearly so soon under tbe new arrangement as it would under tbe old, but the greater speed witb which i will be pushed to completion is what is looked upon to count. Criminal Carelessness. ' The following from the Portland Dispatch it another piece of evidence that men. who mistake rustling bnjhas for wild animals and kill a human being onght to haye vpecial statute for their punishment: 'B. S. Bi ger, of Shelton, while bunting, saw some bushes rustling ahead of fiim and believing it to be a deer, fired. The rifla bail passed throngh che body of Johnny Hodenbeigor, aged 14, who waa alto hunting that morn ing, Barger tried to carry the boy out of the woods, but hit wound wat too painful. He then went for assistance, and tbe lad, who bore bis pain witb great fortitude, wat taken to the nearest far in boose, where he died in about three hours. : Six years ago Johnny and his younger brother were at tacked by a hungry cougar on their way home from school. The latter'a face still bears the marks of the animal's cruel olaws. Tbe cougar jumped from an over-banging limb on the smaller boy: and the valiant 8-year-old Johnny attacked the animal and beat him from hia brother's body with a bottle in whioh he carried tbe children's milk for dinner."
