saysi
"The difference in the '94 and '95
crops in Gilliam county may be com?

May ville wheat belt threshers ran two
weeks this year and 70 days last year.
But our farmers are by no means dis
couraged, and in the south half of the
county four-fifths of ail the plowed
ground will be in grain next year.
Three-fourths of this land is already
seeded, as the farmers have learned
from experience that fall sown grain
makes the surest crop. The fail grain
looks splendid now, muob of it being
three inches tail,

The success of Hood's Sarsaparilla
in conquering scrofula in whatever
way it may manifest' itself is vouched
for by thousands who were severely
afflicted by this prevalent disease, but
who now rejoice over a permanent cure
by Hood's Sarsaparilla. 8crofula may
appear as a humor, or it may attack the
glands of the neck, or break out dread
ful running sores on the body or limbs;
Attacking the mucous membrane, it
may develop into catarrh or lodging
in the lungs lead to consumption.
Corneas it may, a faithful course of
treatment with Hood's Sarsaparilla
will overcome it, for working upon the
foundation of all diseases, impure
blood, the system isclorified and vital?
ized, and vigor strength and health re
stored to the body
The First Race Delayed, by an Unruly
Bone, NlKht Shut Out the Lat At
tractive Exhibit! at the FavUllon
The first race of the meeting was
rather discouraging. Everything
seemed to go wrong, but it was the
fault of no one except the stubborneas
of Little Dug. The horses were sent
to the post at quarter to three. Little
Due- had the Dole. Black Prince next
Steamboat Bill No. 3, and Grover on
the outside. The starter lined the
horses ud several times and tried to
get them off together, but Little Dug
held back every time, try as he would.
Harmon, who was upon the chestnut
gelding could not get him away with
the other horses. The judges, who
with the crowd had become impatient
by this time, sent the marshal around
to the starter with instructions to
send the horses off immediately. This
had the desired effect, for in a lew
moments, just one hour after the
horses had been sent to the post, they
broke awav with a fine start. Steam
boat Bill was slightly in the lead
with the others bunched. In coming
around the turn one could, see that
something was the matter for all the
horses except Steamboat Bill went up
against the pole with a crash, then
they steadied down to a good run
home. Steamboit Bill winning from
Black Prince by a length and a half,
Little Dug third and Grover fourth
On account of the fault committed by
Steamboat Bill he was placed last and
Black Prince given the raoe, The
time for the Quarter race was 25 sec
onds.
The next race on the programme
was a half mile and repeat. The horses
took the following positions: Black
Alder first, Henrietta second, Pic Nio
third, Mowitza fourth, Mamie S fifth.
After a few trials Starter Getzel sent
the horses off together. Mamie S soon
took the lead and held It until the
finish, winninz in 51i seconds. Black
Alder came in second, Mowetza thirdj
Pic Nic fourth and Henrietta fifth. In
the next heat Henrietta delayed the
start by actinz very stubborn, but the
horses were at lasil started to a fair go,
It had now became so late that one
could not distinguish the horses, but
when they came down tho stretch Pic
Nic was in the lead and held it till the
finish. The last heat, owing to the
darkness, was- postponed until this
afternoon,
In the 'Paris mutuals which were
sold for $2.00 Black Prince paid $3,00,
Mamie S $6.25 and Pic Nic $9,50
There are four races on the card to
day, the unfinished i mile and repeat
in which Pic Nio and Mamie S are
eligible to start. The pony race, i of a
mile catch weights, Rollo Cricket.
Biddy, Little Maud, Peggy, Feigh and
Nellie are entered.
In 'the pacing race, Blonde, En
counter and Davis Boy are entered.
The following gocd ones are entered
in the merchants handicap, f of a mile
running: Baby Ruth 107, Volta 108,
Annie Rooney 100, Pic Nic 119, Mowr
etza 114.
Owing to the late hour at which the
races were started yesterday we were
unable to get any of the innings. -
The pony race, f-mile, was sent off
to standing start. Cricket, Peggy and
Rollo took the lead at the start, and
kept these positions till the finish.
These three horses were owned by
Dan Maloney, and it is the first time
in the history of The Dalles track that,
a stable ran one, two, three in every
race. Time, 42. Mutuals paid $7.25.
Rollo and Cricket were combined.
Mamie S. won the final heat and
race in half-mile and repeat, Picnic
Second. Mutuals paid $3.75. Time,
The officials started the races in good
time tqday and are running them very
promptly-
AT THE EXPOSITION HALL.
A rather slim crowd turned out last
night to the opening of the exhibition
hall. The first night is always small
and last night was no exception. The
playing of the orohestra was exceed'
ingly fine and was well appreciated, as
was evidenced by the number of en
cores.
All the exhibit were in their proper
place. The hall looked as If it had.
been ready to receive visitors for days
in place of hours.
The exhibit of Rubert & Gabel de?
serves more than passing notice, as
these gentlemen have spared neither
time nor money in order to make a
good showing. Mr. E. Gerechton is
working in their booth every evening
stamping out flowers and making other
leather ornaments. . In this exhibit
one can see the first piece of human
tanned skinned ever brought to The
Dalles. This piece of human leather
is from the breast of some human be
ing, and is about six lnobes square, of
light color and cross grained, Mr,
Rubert prides himself that he has a
better exhibit of harness and saddles
than ever appeared in The Dalles. In
looking over the display our reporter
noticed two very fine silk plush buggy
robes yalued at $75, alsq a double set
of light harness rubber-trimmed and
gold lined. ;
The display of fruit is far beyond
the expectations of the fair manage
ment. We wil) note the different ex?
Jubits day by dwt
speed. Annie Rooney and Mowitza
running neck and neck, but coming in
home Mowitza's weight began to tell,
and Annie Roonev with only 100
pounds up began to pull away and
came under the wire a winner by a
length in 1:06. Mutuals paid $6.40.
Tomorrow promises to be the day at
the fair. Every person that can get
awav is zoinz. and that means, that
everybody in The Dalles will turn out,
for the merchants have agreed to close
the stores in the afternoon. The man
agement of the fair have engaged the
band so there is no reason why Friday
should not be a grand day at the track.
The Drozramme for that day is also
the best one yet hung up. It includes
the following races; Running novelty
race, one mile dash First quarter.
$20, half $30, three-quarters $40, mile
$00. Running, i-mile dash. Trotting
free for all. Besides these horse races
there will be a half mile novice and a
mile handicap bicycle race. All our
local scorchers are entered and some
outsiders.
The large swinging uoors opening
into the exhibition hall hardly had
time to rest last night until after the
band had ceased playing. A very
largo crowd visited the Armory hall
last evening to view the exhibits and
listen to the band. Too much praise
cannot be given the band for the man'
ner in which it discourses music. It
is an usual thing at exhibits of this
kind for the band to play a piece every
hour or so, but our boys seeing that
the music is appreciated and realizing
that it is very hard to zet too much of
a good thing are giving us music, and
good music at that, as often as they
can. It is hoped that they will keep
up their zood work
Mrs, Stubling & Son's floral exhibit
deserves more than passing notice as
it is, both in quantity and quality
equal if not superior to anything in
that lino ever exhibited at The Dalles:
furthermore, if this exhibit were re
moved from the hall it would be missed
more than any other one. in this ex
hibit there are all kinds of tropical
palms, twenty-one carnations, all of
different colors and very large, four?
teen bouquets made up of as many dif
ferent varieties of flowers, but we
would overlook the best display of Mrs.
Stubling's exhibit if we did not men
tion the dish of roses. This dish con
tains twenty-three choice 'varieties of
roses.
Hood River is here in full forco as
far as fruit is couoerned. Those people
living in Hood River valloy are not in
the fruit business for their health and
they know more about picking fruit
for an exhibit than any other part of
Oregon. In looking over their ex
hibits one will notice that there is not
a blemish on any of the fruit. All told
there are 100 dishes of different kinds
of fruit.
Mr. W. N. Crawford, of Rockland,
has pears that weigh ten pounds and
thirty-two apples tljat weigh fifty
pounds. The judges who were looking
over the exhibits have our heartfelt
sympathy for we cannot see how they
can say that one exhibit which is the
best is any bettor than another one
which cannot be beat.

FASTEST T?M TET-
The Attendance at the Fair Yesterday
TVai Good, and Racing Flrst-Clasi
. . Attraction af the Pavilion.
The attendance at the fair grounds
yesterday afternoon was very good,
but still it was not near as large as the
card hung up by the officials war
ranted. The betting crowd- is very
light this year. The desire of getting
something for nothing does not seem
to have struck The Dalles people
Owing to the early hour at which we
go to press we did hot get the pace on
the 4 -mile dash. Three horses, En
counter, Davis Boy and Blonde, were
entered in he pace, B'qnde was
scratched put, leaving only two hprses
to compete. At the second trial
Starter Perkins sent the horses off.
Side by side the horses moved around
without a break. Every one thought it
was going to be a dead heat, but com
ing into the home stretch Davis Boy
moved up and won by half a length in
2:27, which is the fastest time ever
made in harness on The Dalles track,
In the second heat the horses moved
around together until they went
around the last turn when Encounter
passed Davis Boy and kept the lead,
winning In 2;27, The third and fourth
heats went to Encounter, time 2:29 and
2:34.
The -mile dash brought out a lot of
good ones. The talent backed Baby
Ruth, Volta second choice, Mowitza
third, and Picnlo and Annie Rooney
in the field. The starter had very lit
tle trouble in getting the horses off.
They came past the grand stand well
bunched and on the back stretch they
began to move up, and they came
around the last turn at a break neck

A Strange Accident.
To drown in dried leaves appears
strange to many; but it appears that
loose hops in bins large enough will
suffocate a person who is so luckless as
to fall into them, as quickly as a pool
of water. The following from the
Gervais Star is the account of the-narrow
escape a hopdryer had in one of
these bins from being drowned; "Jo
seph Kennedy, while at work around
the storehouse Sunday, accidentally
fell from the looxe boards into the mass
of loose hops. He was rescued by his
brother, who had hard work to find
him, and brought to the surface in an
unconscious condition. It was fifteen
minutes before he was brought to' life
again. It may seem strange, but dried
hops are as dangerous as quioksand,
and worse than water "to fall into.

fought from start to finish.
The first Vace on the program was
a half mile dash for saddle horses, each
horse to carry 160 pounds. There were
eight horses entered. Cracker Jack
sold favorite both in pool book aud in
the Paris mutuals. Mt. Plant and
Chance coupled as the Walker stable
sold second choice. The horses were
as fine a looking lot of saddle animals
as ever appeared on the track. The
borses were sent off to standing start,
La Grippe who was third from the pole
on the start forged ahead at the first
turn with Cracker Jack and Chance
close up. On the back stretch these
three horses moved together like the
cavalry
i ne otner uorses began to line up
for a procession and by the time. they
struck the last turn all the horses ex
cept the three leaders were all strung
out in as fine a procession as one
would wish to see. Coming into the
home stretch Cracker Jack began to
move up and came in home a winner
by a half a length from Stranger, who
was a length ahead of Mt. Plant.' The
other horses were in line from the
judge's stand to the eighth pole. The
race was run In 54 seconds which is
exceedingly good time for the dis
tance with 160 pounds up, Mutuals
paid $3.50,
I do next race was a S mile aud re
peat, and Mamie S sold favorite;
Black Prince second, Jim Crowe third,
Herman in the field. The horses were
promptly sent to the post, but Jim
Crowe, who is always mean and sulky
at the start, would not move up with
the other horses, After scoping for
half an hour, the flag was drepped to a
fair start with Jim Crowe twenty or
thirty feet in the rear. Black Prince
and Mamie S moved around together
until a short distance from the wire
when Black Prince forged ahead win'
ning by half a length in 37. Mamie
S was not pushed -in this heat, her
jockey evidently intended to save her
for the next heats' After this heat
was run a match race was made be
tween two ponies; Rollo, owned by
D, Maloney, Nellie belonging to H
It. Davis. The raoe was for I milo
standing start. At the first trial the
horses were sent off. Rollo took the
lead on the back stretch and won
easily in two lengths.
In the second heat of the I mile and
repeat tho horses got off without? any
delay. As soon as the race had started
it was easily seen that it would be a
hot fight between Mamie S and Black
Prince the other horses being out
classed, Coming into the .home
stretch both' riders began applying
whip and spur using every means to
land their mount first, but the fleet
footed Mamie S was too much (or
Black Prince, she won the heat in the
finest finish ever seen on the track.
After the heat both jockeys were
called to the judge's stand and the
crowd fearing that the plucky little
Mamie was going -to be deprived of
the race, began to swarm on the
track, but when the judges .made -the
announcement, that -Mamie, S won
a grand cheer went up, showing that
although many had lost money on the
heat, yet every one was satisfied with
the decision, The time was 37. Mu,
tuals paid$4.70.
Black Prince and Mamie S, were the
only horses eligible fop the final heat.
Ihe other horses were sent to the sta
bles. There wa3 no difficulty in get
ting the horses off together. Until
the home stretch was reached only one
horse could be seen, so evenly were
they matched, In the run for home
both riders and horses seemed to strain
every nerve, but again Mamie S,
proved herself equal to the emergency
and again were the ' people treated to
as npe a finish as ever was seen on
track.
A professional foot race of a hun
dred yards was scheduled to come off
yesterday, but for some reason It was
postponed until tomorrow. The fol
lowing names were hung up on the
blackboard as the starters: Handy
Allf n, E. R. Egbert, Former Brown,
W. H. Cantrell, Sam Jones.
The exhibition hall was taxed to its
utmost capacity last night, fully 600
people being present. The art display
was the center of attraction, as it well
merited the praises that the public be
stowed on the pictures. The ladies
have far outdone the men in this line,
in fact our reporter does not remember
seeing a picture that was painted by
masculine hand. There are so. many
beautiful pictures that if we were to.
comment on aH of them we would bo
compelled to get out an extra edition.
The following ladies have pictures
that they oan justly feel proud of:
Miss Helm, Miss Buchler, Mrs. CT E.
Bayard, Mrs. Kent, Mrs. Tolmie, Miss
Louise Ruch, Mrs- Gouriay, Mrs, Ha?
sel, Mrs. Seufert, Mrs. Filloon, St.
Mary's Academy has an excellent ex?
hibit of painting and fancy work, giv?
ing one an idea of the profioienoy of
the Sisters method of instruction, The
Dalles may well feel safe in jtbe art
line as long as she can produoe works
of art suoh as are now on exhibition
at the Armory Hall. The judges have
made tne awards, but as the list is not
yet made public we will have to refrain
from publishing it until tomorrow.
THE STOCK is GQ&D,
This farenoo.n at the fair grounds
was of little interest except to stock
raisers,
At nine o'clock the judges began
awarding premiums in the horse ex
hibits, and with so many different
olasses to pass upon they were occu
pied until the noon hour. The ani
mals on exhibition in the different
classes were from the best known
herds. Many imported animals being
contestants, prominent, among which
were two imported draft stallions, the
property of Robert J&lley,
Among the other stock exhibits
were the Baldwin Sheen & Land Co's.,
thorough bred sheep, in charge of Mr.
John Van Houton who spares no ef
forts to convince the sheep raisers at
the fair that his company has a class
of stock that is well worth their notice.
The other sheep exhibits are indeed
good, still they seem to not be in
charge of anyone, hence a reporter
cannot ascertain to whom they belong
or what they are.

Tobacco Culture,
During the past season Messrs.
Ulrich & Son, proprietors of The
Dalles Cigar Factory, have been experi
menting In tobacco culture here, and
have succeeded in producing a quality
of tobacco which they pronounce al
most equal to that grown in the to
bacco-producing states of the South.
The samples they have on exhibition
are, to. all appearances, of excellent
quality, and in some respects superior
to that which is imported. Messrs.
Ulrich are of the opinion that tobacco
can be grown successfully in this
locality, and if this is true, a new and
profitable industry will be opened to
our farmers.

Reduced Ball Road Bate for Biggs.
A gentleman from Biggs informs us
that the O. R. & N. Co., have met the
demands of the Sherman county far
mers for a reduction of freight rates
on wheat from Biggs. Under the new
schedule, wheat is carried from Biggs
to Portland at the same rate as from
The Dalles, thus enabling wheat b.uy
ers at that point to. pay plles' prices.
As a result wheat wen.t up, toi 4pi cents
at Biggs yesterday, and the " rise has
caused unusual activity among farmers
in getting their product to the rail
road. If this rate prevails during the
remainder of the season it will be
thousands of dollars in the pockets of
