A Walt We are highly pleased that our lo?al tal ent acquitted themaslves so admirably a tbey did in tbia difficult play, Erery lover of the legitimate drama who were present laat night could not fail to be pleased with the personations of characters, and the art ist in thi particular hia a more difficult role to feel than he who simply uses hia brush and pencil. The actor has not only tb be agreeable to tbe eye of the intelligent listener, but also has to satisfy bis intellec tual discrimination. Cnaraoters are not studied today simply because they repre sent tbe costumes and range of thought as tbey existed in the days of Shakespeare, Qocthe, Knowles. Satridal and Bulwer Lytton; bnt as they are representatives of an artlitio and even scientific presentations of a range of being that appeal to a culti vated discernment of the. particular type. With no flattery we can truthfully say that the members of The Dalles dramatic trjnpe are connoiseurs in this line. Portland's Population- The Evening Telegram says: Com plete census returns from 54 precincts in the city show a total population in these precincts of 62,500, of which 16, 300 are legal voters. The portion of the city not included in the returns lies in the business district, where there are many hotels and lodging-houses, the In habitants of which will swell the list considerably, and Assessor Greenleaf es timates the completed returns from the entire city will show about 75,000 resi dents. The returns from 54 precincts show 1500 more persons than the census of 1890, which gave the population of the districts now in the consolidated city as 61,000. The increase in the population on the East Side has been about 100 per cent.according to Assessor Greenleaf's estimate, and in some localities eyen more. In the outlying precincts, be tween Mount Tabor and Sunnyside, out side Of the city limits, the increase since 1890 has been greatest. In precinct 64 the population has increased from 400 to 1700, and at Montavilla fro n 200 to 1400. A large increase is Bhown at Woodstock and other additions contiguous to the city limits. Portland proper has more than held its own, with a probable increase of 10 to 16 per cent. Another fact shown is that the vacant houses on the West Side are three to one as compared to the East Side. A Brabeman Killed. We take the fetlowing particulars of the tragic death of a brakeman ou tbe Southern Pacific from the Ashland Tid- iut : Fred Whitcomb, a brakeman in freight Conductor Elder's crew, which started from Ashland for Koseburg with "31" at about the usual time last night, was in stantly kiiiea as tne train was passing the siding at Leland station, beyond Grants Pass, at an early hour thii morn ing. From tunnel 9 to Leland the brake men on the freights have to remain on top of tbe train to watch their brakes, etc.. on the down grade. There was no freight to be left at Leland and none to take cm and no stop was made. When Wolf Creek was reached Whitcomb was missed and tbe train pushed back to look for him. Reaching Leland Whit- comb's body was found beside the track and near a box car that waa on the end of tbe siding. Tbe side of his head was crushed in, both arms broken as also a shoulder, Indicating that death had been instantaneous. The supposition ia that Whitcomb was on his way to the caboose at the rear of the train, and was climbing down the side of a car to get on to some flat cars that were next behind when the train came to the sideing and tbe box car on the siding struck him with the results told. is is it , This is the new shortening of cooking fat which is so fast taking the place of lard.

Thirty-nir e years ago yesterday occurred the Indian massacre at the Cascades, Ore gon. Perhaps to only one man residing in Pendleton thoughts of the anniversary and the terrible Northwest Indian war of 18S5-6 recurred. The scenes were fresh in the mind of Judge Siabop, who ha reason to vividly recollect the devastation of the In dian durii.g that war. In speaking of the Cascades massacre je.-tjrday he said: "Thirty-nine yeara ago todays large band of Yakimas, Klickitit and other Iadian tribes killed 16 white men and women at the Caaoade aod for two daya held posses sion of tha aettlement. There were 30 or 40 houses at the upper lauding and 8 or 10 a mile below at toe middle landing, where the - block house stood. Every one who could escape Add to tbe brock bouse aod ought refuge there. Jay Switzler just escaped with bis life. He was nsaily caught and the Indian were after him, shooting a they ran, and ha aped over that ground at tbe rate of a mile a minute until ha reaobed the block house. All but a few aoldiera bad gone away from thi point to .guard other.', and the Indians, seeing their oppor tunity, besieged tbe town. In two days Colonel Wright, who, with about 500 men of the Ninth regiment. Second dragoon aod Third artillery, had atarted for Walla Walla, returned, hanged eight or nine In diana, put the rest to flight and relieved the situation. My house was burned with sev eral other. Phil Sheridan, whom I wa with during part ot the tight, tried to make a landing on the" aecmd day of the maa cre, bat waa driven away by tb fighting Indian," New Time Card- . -.The following schedule on the O.

Train 2 arriva ing at Dalles at 1 p. u. also carries pass engers. Trains 7 and 8 will have obser vation cars In addition to regular coaches and will make regular passenger train time. " :'- - Tbe Sentiment Prevailing . A commercial man representing a wholesale firm in Portland had a diffi cult time yesterday in securing orders, until he was made acquainted with tbe situation. It seems the firm which he represented had given Us proxy in a share of stockbf the D. P. & A. N. Co., which it owned, to an enemy of the pre sent board of directors, and the-people considered this equivalent to a desire to sell the boats to the railroad company. This aroused the ire of the community, and the Portland firm cancelled the proxy before it could do any business. After this several orders were taken. This shows that our citizens are in ear nest in supporting the boat line,' and that tbe low freight rates from this, city to seaboard now enjoyed will remain. A Handsome Memento During the last session ot the legislature Hon. Qao. W. McBrid assisted the wiys and mean committees very materially in framing the appropriation bill.

Tbe whole ia mounted with a pin, whioh allows it to be worn upon the coat 1 pel, aod Senator McBride takes great pleasure in putting it there.

There is only one way to euro deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by au iuflaxed condi tion of the mucous lining of tbe eustach ian tube. When this tube is inflamed yon have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and wben it is entirely closed, deafness is tbe result, and unless tbe in flammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine oases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which it nothing but an inflamed condition of tbe mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars; free. F. J.

The wife might not enable her husband 40 make the returns the law requires. anh party might claim the $1000 exemption If the law should be pronounced uncon stitutional, there would be a ruling npon these disputed points, and the parties considering themselves aggrieved will appeal to the courts.
