Mr. Antone Fisher left on the Reg ulator this morning lor Oregon city. Mrs. L. Heppner left on the after noon train on a short visit to rortland, The river is rising, and this morn' in? was 11 feet 3 inches above low . water mark. Mrs. W. Midlawn, of Oregon City, Is visiting her sister, Mrs. Sydney xoung, in mis city. The Columbia Packing Co., of this city, shipped a carload of hogs from Grants today to Portland. Shearing has begun in some of the wool-growing districts of Eastern Ore gon,and the clip is exceptionally good. Hon. W. H. H. Dufur drove in town from his farm near Dufur, today. He says there was frost frost on Fifteen Mile creek last night. Mr. J. D. Allen, formerly an em ploye at the railroad shops in this city, but who has resided in Albina for some time past, is in the city. The following deed was filed with .the county clerk today: David W. Mann to Louis Monterasselli and G. Pini; portion of land in sec 22, tp 1 n, r 12 east; $1. The house which stood near the resi dence of Mr. Leslie Butler is being re moved several blocks farther east' to day. Mr. Andrew Velarde, with a force of men, is doing the work. Mr. W. i. Courtney, a former resi dent of Biggs, is in the city today. He is buvinsr cattle for Frve-Bruen Co. o Seattle, Wash., and is visiting this ref gion in connection with that business' Two hoboes were arrested last ' night, and this morning Recorder Du fur sentenced tnem to a nne oi so apiece. In default of payment they will work on the streets lor tne next few days. The Salem Journal says: One man like McKinley Mitchell, who finds a ' market for 80 carloads of Oregon pota toes, is worth a dozen who write long newspaper articles on how to develop this state. Exchange: Prisoners are now sent out of the pen without a cent accord ing to a local paper, and the Salem hog has to feed them, attention to which is called good naturedly by the papers oi mat city. Governor Holcomb has signed the bill just passed by the Ohio legislature appropriating $200,000 for the purchase of seed, grain and food for drough- stricken farmers of Western Nebraska. The law becomes immediately oper ative. Heppner Gazette: Our old friend, Miehell, of the Times-mountaineek always was a ' good newspaper man, hut with his new dress of bodv and advertising type, a lot of new ads and a larger daily, he is making all his neighbors envious. The ca-e of fraudulently raffling off the bicycle was heard before Justice . Davis yesterday afternoon, and the de- . ienaast, tianer, waiving exiumuiiuuii, was held in the sum of $150 to answer before the grand jury. Bail was fur nished and the defendant is at liberty, Some of the largest rhubarb we have seen this year came from the garden of Mr, J, Rath, just east of the Ninth street bridge. It fully demonstrates the capacity of the soil for growths of this kind. Mr. Rath is a thorough horticulturist, and has some of the best garden product in the city. Governor Mitchell, of Florida, calls thinars bv their right names when he discusses prize fighting. He has re commended to the legislature the en - actment of a law making prize fights or glove contests felonies by statute, "with such penalties attached as will cause these thugs to respeet the law abiding, God-fearing people of the state In the pursuit of all their rights as cit izens." The total amount which the city will receive for the beads will be $65,840. This fund is applicable to the payment of outstanding warrants, and from this time forward no warrants will be Is sued and the affairs of the city will be conducted on a cash basis. A large amount of money heretofore paid for interest will be saved. Nearly all of the city warrants are held by residents, and a great deal of capital will be placed in circulation. Exchange: It was a thrilling mo ment in the Colorado legislature. A murmur of excitement was instantly hushed. Members held their breath and the atmosphere cleared. A lady member arose, shook the folds of her dress, and calmly surveyed the sub dued and subjugated ex-tyrants about. "Mr. Speaker," she exclaimed, "am" I in order?" "Madam is the better judge,'' replied the gallant presiding officer, pointing to a mirror. Heppner Gazette: Martin Massinger, an excentrie old German who lives in the mountains, was found in his bed a few days ago by W. E. Mikesell, suffer ing intensely from inflammatory rheu matism 'and starvation, having been confined to his room and unable to get out for two weeks, Mikesell took the old man down to his place and js doing all he can for him, but he will doubt less become a county charge, as we are informed that he has little means at his command. 1 J. J. Roulston, an Adams farmer, says there must be concerted action by all wheatraisers to prevent spread of Chinese lettuce and to exterminate it. This weed is on the same order as the milkweed, the blossom developing an enormous quantity of seeds, which float in the air and make it futile for one farmer to fight the weed when his neighbor neglects tp do the same thing. All must work together. There are many who are resowing fields on account of 'Chinese lettuce, and another year, unless something is done, the damage will be very great. j will be May 24th, but Mr. Leeds ex- peuus w xiavo vuvui uuua buvchoi uao previous to then. The volume will consist of about 700 pages, making it smaller than the '93 book by 200 pages. Miss Mortin, sister of the secretary of agriculture, is the only person prom inently connected with the administra tion who is able to talk French to mem bers of the deplomatic corps She lost her fortune indorsing notes of another brother and was compelled to open a girls' scool in Detroit. D. Parrott went to Portland Wed nesday of this Week where he will com plete the engine for his flying machine. It will takehim about two weeks, says the Goldendale Sentinel. After that is done he will return and complete the body of the air-ship. He expects to have all in readiness by July. A Portland exchange says: George Hunter, a boy hailing from Baker City, who said he came all the way to Port land to see the man go over the falls on Sunday, was sent to jail for 30 days for begging on the street. Sentence was suspended, on condition that the boy leave town at once, which he promised to do. Exchange: Portland Tjork packers pay less than Omaha for their hogs by one and a half-cents per pound. As a consequence the raising of hogs is not sufficiently encouraged and the Omaha Product finds a market in this state, 'he Portland hoer does not give the other hogs throughout the state a liv ing show. Mr. Jos. Knebel broueht to the office yesterday some pine needles which he had gathered from a forest tree a few miles south of the city, and on these could be discerned a thick clustering of San Jose scale. Our orchards are nearly free from the scale; but they will not remain so while the insect can find a breeding place in the forest trees. The frost of last week did more or less injury to fruit prospects in some portions of Jackson county, while in others it only thinned the blossoms sufficiently to secure a good quality of fruit if no further damage occurs. Cherries and almonds are injured more than peaches, while apricots will be decidedly short. The strawberry crop is uninjured, as also are later varieties of fruit Sheriff Driver received yesterday from the authorities in California a photograph and description of the ex press robber, who is still at large, and who recently held up the Southern Pa cific and killed Sheriff Bogard of Te hama. A careful watch will be kept on all arrivals in this city, and if he comes this way he will very likely be captured. There were 3000 sheep shipped from the stockyards of R. E. Saltmarsh & Co. in this city today. They were sent to Chicago, and consisted of eighteen car loads. Mr. Thomas Farsrher, of Kings- ley, owned the sheep, and he sold them to an eastern Duyer. it is expectea they will bring a good price in Chicago, as livestock of all kinds are apprecia ting in value. Street Commissioner Butts has a gang of five under his charge today, and he is fully equal to the emergency. He wears his honors lightly, and does not seem to be in the least proud of the position, and any one can approach mm widnuuti uwurauun. iasav immr tunate victims were arrested on differ ent charges, and are working out their fines on the street. It is reported that the cattle raisers of the west are lending every effort to the perfection of an organization to fight the dressed beef combine. They claim that they are getting only a small and wholly inadequate advantage from the advance in price to consum ers. The cattle raisers are now devot ing themselves to the consideration of a scheme to establish markets at Chi cago, ot. Jjouis, umana, Kansas City, New York and other points for the sale of cattle for future delivery. Both Bradstreet and Dunn's reports of business for last week show decided improvement in all branches of busi ness throughout the United States, and the feeling of confidence is rapidly-being-restored. The price of all farm products is increasing, and many new industries are being established in all parts of Uncle Sam's domain, which will cause money to circulate more freely. Notwithstanding the croak ings of prophets to the contrary, 1895 gives promise of a most successful year as regards business. - Mr. D. P. Thompson's lecture to be given Friday evening in the Congrega tional church, is to be upon the oldest national existence the world Knows ng about .Egypt, "Mizrain, tne Land of the Two Walls". Mr. Thomp son makes no pretense of bejpg an ora tor. He is a plain but interesting talker who has seen what he will describe and can tell us what he has seen. For the sake of the educational work, we are very glad that arrangements have been made Toy which the pupils pf the schools can receive the benefits of this lectupe at reduced rates. EASTERN OREGON. The Benefits to be Derived From Dirersl- . fled Farming Livestock Interests. We make the following excerpts from an interesting letter to the Ore gonian, from Hon. A.. W. Gowan, which faithfully portrays the needs of Eastern Oregon: "A large portion of Eastern Oregon is adapted to the growing of broom corn. It is just as sure a crop as wheat, and has proved more profitable to the farmers of Nebraska and Kansas, and gives a wider demand for labor. Every neighborhood where this product can be raised should have a broom factory, by which employment, through the winter season, could be furnished quite a number of persons in broom-making for market. "The growing of flax should be a general industry, as it will thrive in all localities. It requires only a short growing season to mature in, and it is quite possible that two crops could be raised on the same piece of ground each year. It is not liable to damage by storms or wet weather, "This would be a profitable industry, as the seed yield would be from 15 to 30 bushels to the acre, from which oil could be taken with little expense, and the fiber made into ropes, cordage or burlap, or in the raw state it would have a profitable commercial value. "The stock interest of a large por tion of Eastern Oregon will continue for many years hence to be a leading industry, by reason of natural adapta tion of climate and natural produc tions; but it seems senseless to ship hides, horns, bones and wool, etc., to foreign markets, when we should have all the necessary factories for their treatment within our own borders. Why bring a shoe from anywhere, so long as we furnish the hide lor tne shoe; in fact, everything but the labor to shape and fasten it together? Every county in Eastern Oregon should have a wool-scouring mill, and enough woolen factories in the state to work up every pound of wool produced here." CANNING FRUITS. Timely Suggestions on an Industry That Should be in Operation at The Dalles, ftural Korthwest. There is a good deal of interest shown at the present time in the subject of canning fruits in Oregon. There are quite a number of canneries in Oregon, but nearly all of them have so far failed to giye (he returns anticipated by those who put their money into them. - Sev eral of these canneries were much larger than the fruit supply pf their localities justified, and for that reason could not be operated with profit. There was little known, also, as to what kinds of fruits and vegetables can be profitably canned here. There is no other portion of the United States so well adapted to the production of straw berries, red raspberries and gooseber ries as the Pacific northwest and our canned strawberries are unexcelled in quality. The fact mnst be recognized by growers that canneries can not be operated with success unless they can get their products at a low price. New brands of canned goods must be both choice and cheap to find a market. Those frqit aqd vegetables which we can produce more cheaply, and at the same time of better quality, than can be done elsewhere in the United States are the foundation for binding up ultimately a great canning industry. what stock they could. Prices went the activity of the buyers in creased, and not only have thousands of beeves been bougni, Dut. agouw have been sent to the Willamette val ley to gather up what stock can be fnnriH hv. With the rise in the price of beef there came an extra de mand for mutton, ano in ctook. cuuuj as high as $3.25 has been paid for good mutton sheep. Land Transfers, April 13. Heirs of J. L.

Tavlor. the man whose abdomen was relieved of 43 inches of small in testine bv a Portland surgeon some time ago. leaves for the tiQspital again today. He has been under the weather for two or three weeks past, and his visit to Portland will probably result in the performing ol anotner opera tion. "The Murphy Button" used in uniting the severed intestines in the former operation has never pass away, and the muscles in front of the abdomeq hftye parted, allowing the in. testmes to drop out oi their normal position, To right these irregularities will probably require anotner oraeai for Mr. Taylor, and it is to be hoped that the result of it all will be good health after it is over.

Red Men's Social Club, In Connection With Wasco Tribe. WW Properly Celebrate the Occasion, The Red Men's social club, com posed of members of Wasco Tribe, Improved Order of Red Men. have made arrangements to charter the Regulator and give an excursion to Cascade Locks on May 12th. This will afford an opportunity to all who desire to examine the government worn now nearing completion, as the boat will remain several hours before starting on the return trip. Amuse ments of all kinds will be in operation on the grounds, whioh will be pre pared with all conveniences for pic nicking. The trip will be a very de lightful one, affording an excellent view of the magnificent scenery on the middle Columbia, and the weather may oe expected to be delightful in the fullest sense of the term. Tickets will be placed at the low price of $1 for the round trip, and there will be ac commodations on the boat for over 300 guests. This will undoubtedly be one of the most enjoyable occasions of the season, and will be extensively patron ized.

This is essential to success in the cooking, as well as an important feature for one's pocket book.

A Hew Opera ifonse to Be Erected on the Bite of the Old One Desroyed by the Fire of 1801. We understand that the walls of the old opera house, which were left stand ing after the fire of September 2, 1891, will be repaired and the old building restored tQ its former condition before the conflagration. When completed this will be used for an armory, and as a public hall and opera house. This, is a commendable movement on the part of Mr. Max Vogt, who will expend in its completion several thousand dol lars, and who is exhibiting a spirit of public enterprise that is worthy of im itation. The stage and hall of (be new opera house will be the same di mensions as the old one, the only dif ference being that the auditorium wil) have a level noor instead of a sloping one as formerly. Work will begin on this immediately, and the building will be finished at the earliest date possible. We hope to see this move followed by others in the same direc tion, when The Dalles will assume the position as a progressive city that her financial standing should warrant her in doing.

Last Saturday morning the state board of building commissioners, con sisting of Governor Lord, Secretary Kincaid and Treasurer Metschan, ar rived in Union on business connected with the branch asylum. Upon their arrival they were met by a number of Union citizens who accompanied them over the magnificent body of land con sisting of 620 acres, recently purchased by the state for the asylum. Governor Lord and Secretary Kin caid had not heretofore inspected, the land, but were highly' pleased with the purchase. The board examined the lay of the land, its drainage adyanr tages, character of soil and in a gen eral way made their plans for the loca tion of the institution and the arrange ment Qf the grounds, sq that as soon as the case now pending in courtj is. finally disposed of there will be no lay in the erection of the buildings, The board left Saturday evening for Pendleton where they spent Sunday, and then went to the Cascade looks to inspect the state portage railroad.

Be fixed up a dynamite cartridge, and with' 2fr feet qf fuse attempted to "shoot" the well. The cartridge failed to go off and he tried another, this time with 5 feet of fuse. He lowered the cartridge with a string until it reached 73 feet below the surface and then waited. This cartridge went off immediately fol lowed by a deluge of water and mud. The explosion shattered the casing tq the well and tapped the old air' vein, and during tie night the Vejr gushed forth watet and air.

High Prices For Beef. Oregon stockmen are profiting by the advance in the praise of 'b'csel by sharp CJiicagdans setting a" corner, on c'ajtfe and control of the market; There is a great scarcity of cattle in the east at present, and while prices have been steadily going up, It is im possible to obtain beeves.

One of the gentlemen said that the picture in the Chronicle was a perfect likeness of the unfortunate young lady. The Salem Statesman publishes a cor respodence which states that the Blanche Lamont who attended the Willamette university was not the one who was murdered. A Drive by Trail. The following from the Baker City Democrat shows -that the drive of herds to eastern markets is beginning in the Inland Empire: "Sometime be tween the 25th inst. and the 1st prox. Messrs, Geo- H. and William Sally will start a band of about 40Q head of horses by trail with destination Ft. Worth, Texas. They are now riding the range and gathering in their brands and have established a corral on Beaver creek, where they hold the horses at night. They have rounded up at present about 300 head. It is their desire before starting to have horse owners visit their herd and in spect the same to avoid any trouble in future," A Queer. Case, Eugene Guard: Fred Tietzen, who is now working for D,M, Drake, near this city, claims he is the man that Drs, M& Kenney and Brown operated on in Pe pember, and that he was broke, and hence the drowned man found last Thursday must have been some other gsreon. However, Drs. Kinney and rown Inform us that they are positive that Tietzen is not the man they opera ted upon, as he has a decided German accent, while the man in question spoke good English and was certainly Amer ican born. And they sajr further that this was the only operation they per formed together in December. Why Tietzen claims ha & the persqn is a mystery, A Craw-Fish Cannery, The Salem Post says; There was an agent in Salem today representing a craw fish cannery in San Francisco,. He was making preparations to estab? lish a branch in this city, and if the proper arrangements can be made and enough ora,w nsh can be found, he will have several nets oast-along at differ ent points of the river in the vicinity of Salem. He states that the canning of this nh is a late thing and in San Francisco they are considered a del icacy only to be found in first class eating houses. We would imagine that he will find the craw fish very scarce around here. Work at the Locks. Mr. J. G. Day, contractor for the completion of the canal and locks at the Cascades, was in the city yester day, says the Oreaonian of Wednes day. He says the lower pair Of gates is completed and shut. The water is not within several feet of the top of the bulkhead, which has shut it out of the canal, but it is his intention to remove part of the bulkhead, and let the water in against the gates in a day or two. The river will have to rise a good many feet before the water will run over the gates and stop work in the canal, and it is possible that it may not rise high enough this spring. However, the probability is that the gates will be covered and work interrupted for time, but, after the experience of last season, this will not amount to much. The Police Court. The city recorder had bnsiness this morning by reason of the vigilance of tne city omcei-s in matting arrests last I night. One hobo and three inebriates fell Into their clutches, and with par ental regard tor tneir comfort and well being, they were placed in the city jail during the night. This morning they were brought before the city magis trate and each of the hoboes were fined $5, but one of the inebriates, being somewhat boisterous, was booked for 810, These will increase the force now at work on the streets under the charge of Street Commissioner Butts.

The band of wild cattle which has been in the habit" of ranging on Jqe and Fawn creeks, branches of Ageqoy creek, in the coast range, have changed fteip range, so huntera say, who have been looking for them, This band of cattle has ranged in the Cascade tor nearly 20 years, and has weathered the wqrst winters during that period with ease. Those killed by hunters in the spring have been found fat and tender. The valley cattle as a rule are poor when spring comes. These wild cattle are much hardier than domestic stock, and are as shy and hard to come vpn as deer. A, Ccmvict holr, A Portland man told the Sun about a trip to the pan: "While at the pen itentiary I attended a service, whioh was conducted by a choir of 18 men, 14 of whom are from Portland.

On April 1st, 138 cargoes were en route from the Pacific coast for Great .Britain as follows: Puget sound, 18: Columbia river, 61; an Francisco, 59, The total number oi cargoes en route April 1, 1894, was 128, aqd same date in 1893, 159. It is estimated that shipments of 40 addi tional cargoes will complete the sea son's grain shipments from this coast. Fight With a Panther. George Hyde, of Kellogg, Douglas county, had quite an exciting fight with a panther a few days ago. His dog came upon an old one with three young, and a lively fight ensued in which the dog was driven to close quarters, and was being worsted. Hyde went to the rescue oi bis dog, and the old panther turned upon him, He succeeded in keeping her off until the opportunity came for him to fire with out endangering the life of his dog, and a lucky shot in the back of the neck stretched the panther dead,- Mr. Hyde captured two of the young ones and still has them as trophies of his victory, Tbe dog was quite badly used up, Gunning-Davenport Nuptials.

In New York City, for five con secutive years, the proportion of Deaths from Consumption has been three in every Twenty Persons. Epidemics of Cholera, Yellow Fever and. other diseases of similar character, so ter rible in their results, occasion wide spread alarm and receive the most careful consid eration for their prevention and core, while consumption receives scarcely a thought, yet the number of their victims sinks into insignificance when compared with those of consumption. Comparatively few people know what to do for their loved ones when they see them gradually lose strength, lose color, manifest feeble vitality and emacia tion, or develop a cough, with difficult breathing, or hemorrhage. Cod liver oil was for a long time given in all such cases, but the poor success attending its use coupled with its nauseating taste has led many practitioners, as well as the public at large, to place their main reliance in Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It de serves early attention and will prove effect ual not in every case but in a large percentage of cases, and we believe that fully oS per cent, of all cases of consumption can-, if taken in the early stages of the disease, be cure 4 with the ' ' Discovery. ' Dr. Fierce does not ask people to believe until they have in vestigated for themselves, A pamphlet has been published having the names, addresses and photographs of a large number of those cured of consumption, bronchitis, lingering coughs, asthma, chronic nasal catarrh ana kindred maladies which will be mailed free to those sending for it with their name and address npon a postal card, or yon can have a medical treatise, in book form of 160 pages, mailed to you, on receipt of address and six cents in stamps.
