The farmer who has not sold his

WASCO COUNTY FRUIT.
The Prospects for a Large Crop Never Bet
ter Than Now.
Reports from all the fruit raising
sections of Wasco lounty have been
received and are very flattering, as
prospects are exceptionally good for a
heavy yield of almost all kinds of fruit.
The late frost did little if any damage,
and only on the creek bottoms were
the buds affected, while on the high
ground the frost did no damage what
ever. Cherries, peaches, apricots and
prune trees were very full with bloom,
which indicates an abundant yield,
and as Wasco ceunty has never had a
failure of fruit crop, nor even a short
crop when there was an abundance of
blooms, it is quite evident that this
season's yield will be a phenominal
one.
Trees generally throughout the
country are in healthier condition than
usual. Mr. Schanno, member of the
state horticultural board, has this sea
son visited 98 orchards, and says as a
rule they are in excellent condition.
However there were only a few
that were not infested with San
Jose scale, though all have been
thoroughly sprayed except one
orchard, so that the pest has been
kept down well, and the fruit this sea
son will be healthier than common.
Mr. Schanno says fruit growers are
taking unusual interest in caring for
their orchards, and with a continua
tion of the war that is now being
waged against fruit pests, be hopes
within a few years to see the orchards
of Wasco county comparatiyely free.

During last night some one entered
the residences of Truman Butler and
Wm. Micbell. ' They gained admit
tance to Mr. Butler's house by .coming
through the kitchen door, which was
fastened and also the dining room
door which was locked. They went
up stairs to the sleeping apartment
and secured a few dollars in money
from Mr. Butler's trousers, and then
went to the secretary and took Mrs.
Butler's purse. They secured in all
about $8. Mr. and Mrs. Butler are
under the impression they were drug
ged in soma manner as they did not
awake at the usual hour this morning
and there was a peculiar odor In the
room when they were aroused.
At Mr. Michell's home it is presum
ed they secured admittance at the side
door, for it was locked last night when
the family retired, and this morning it
was found open. They did not secure
anything from Mr. Michell except a
suit of clothes and a bunch of keys, as
he had taken precaution, since the
last robbery at his house a few weeks
ago, and left his money in his safe,
Nothing outside of what was mentioned

HOW ABOUT THE EAST?
A SOUTHERN VOLUNTEER.
Yos, sir, I fought with Stonewall,
And faced the fight with Lee;
But if this here Union goes to war,
Make one more gun for ma!
I didn't shrink from Sherman
As he galloped to the sea;
But if this here Union goes to war,
Make one more gun for me!
I was with 'em at Manassas
The bully Boys in Gray;
I heard the thunderers roarin'
Round Stonewall Jackson's way,
And many a time this sword of mine
Has blazed tne route for Lee;
But if this old Nation goes to war,
Make one more sword for me!
I'm not so full o' fightin',
Nor half so full o' fun.
As I was back in the sixties
When I shouldered my old gun;
It may be that my hair is white
Sich things, you know, must be.
But if this old Union's in for war,
Make one more gun for me!
I hain't forgot my raisin'
Nor how, in sixty-two,
Or thereabouts, with battle shouts .
I charged the Bovs in Blue;
And I say: I fought with Stonewall,
And blazed the way for Lee;
But if this old Union's in for war,
Make one more gun for me!
Atlanta Constitution.
THE NORTHERN BROTHFR.
Just make it two, old fellow,
I want to stand once more
Beneath the old flag with you
As in the days of yore
Our forefathers stood together
And fought on land and sea
The battles fierce that made us
A nation of the free.
I whipped you down at Vicksburg,
You licReti me at hiull Kun;
On many a field we struggled,
When neither victory won.
You wore the gray of Southland,
I wore the Northern blue;
Like men we did our duty
When screaming bullets flew.
Four years we fought like devils,
But when the war was done,
Your hand met mine in friendly clasp,
Our two hearts beat as one.
And now, when danger threatens,
No North, no South, we know,
Once more we stand together
To fight the common foe.
My head, like yours, is frosty
Oid age is oreeping on;
Life's sun is lower sinking,
My day will soon be gone.
But if our country's honor
Needs once again her son,
I'm ready, too, old fellow
So get another gun.

HIS WESTERN BROTHER.
Say, if you're not a mindin'.
I'll add another one
Ter help ter lick them critters
Ev'ry mother's son.
I never fit with Early,
Ner never followed Lee,
But I had folks as done it,
That's good enough fer me.
'Nd other folks with Sherman,
'Nd more with fitin' Phil, ,
But Injuns and road agents
Is all I've tried ter kill.
I'd hate to leave the kids behind;
I'd bate to leave my Nell,
But I'd like ter make pure Spanish
The language down in hell.
I'm just a slouch cow puncher,
Fer from metropolae,
But for our dear old flpg, pards,
I'm willin' now ter die,
Yes, young, but grass-fed muscle
Is purty solid meat.
Here, take my paws, you blue and gray
We re purty bard to beat.
Remember, we've stretched out a bit
Since you uns chased around
Correlin' of the Rebs and Yanks"
Ter fertilize the ground:
'Nd pards when there's a call ter shoot,
A big rough Western son
Is in the game till daylight comes,
So get another gun.

The Same Old Story.
Miss Birdie Rosfi, of Boise, Idaho,
attempted suicide at Heppner a few
days ago by the inhalation of chloro
form. The affair occurred in a room
at a hotel, where Frank Coloway, a
young race horse man, whom she fol
lowed to Heppner on invitation and
promise of marriage, was also stopping.
She had run away from home and was
gone seven weeks before her parents
were able to discover her whereabouts
Wednesday her mother arrived on the
scene and begged her to return home.
Instead she made a final appeal to
Coloway, but being spurned, went to a
drug store, bought the poison and per
turned to the room at the hotel, She
was discovered in time to prevent
death, but the poor girl seems deter
mined to marry young Coloway or kill
herself.
Both parties to this sad case are, or
have been, promising young people,
coming from respectable families in
Idaho. But the young man lost his
head on a cheap race borse, and alio
lost his sense of honor in dealing with
women, while the girl lost her head
following after a frivolous man. Both
are deserving of sympathy, the girl
however, more than the man, for she
was following after poorer trash than
he.
APRIL KVKNTS.
It Has Been an Important Month In Amer
. lean History.
April is an eventful month in Amer
ican history. Thirty-seven yaars ago
this monthand two days after the fir
ing of the shot that initiated the
bloody battles of our civil war, Fort
Sumpter surrendered. Thirty-three
years ago Abraham Lincoln, who ex
hausted every available means to
avert that conflict, and whose states
manship saved the republic, was as
sassinated. The fatal shot was fired on
the night of April 12, 'and death en
sued on the following day.
Aprii witnessed both the beginning
and the end of the war of the rebel
lion; Sumpter was firei upon cn April
12, 1861, and Lee surrendered to Grant
April 9, 1865, The same is true of the
revolutionary war; the battle of Lex
ington was fought on April 19, 1775,
and the preliminary treaty of peace
with Great Brttian was ratified by
congress on April 25, 1846.
Three momentous events in our
earlier history have their dates in the
month of April; the first congress met
on April 6, 1789, George Washington
was inaugurated president on April 30,
of the same year and the navy depart
ment was organized on April 30, 1789.
It was on the last day of April, 1803,
that the treaty was made with France
for the purchase of Louisiana.
As a month of historic event". April
has a most fruitful record, and at the
rate we are making history at present,
April, 1898, will make many important
additions. On April 21, diplomatic
relations between America and Spain
were seyeral, and on April 5, con
gress made a formal declaration of
war.
ARMY REGULATIONS
Examinations That Mast Be Passed by Re
cruits With Reference to Sight.
Prof. P. G. Daut, the optician, who
was at one time assistant color and
sight examiner in one of the largest
standing armies of the world, gives
the following as the requirements as
to visual organs in the regular army:
Candidates for commission, in the
army must be able to read 6-36 with
each eye without glasses, and must be
able of correction without glasses up
to 6-6 in one eye, and 6-12 in the other;
he must also be able to read No. 1 of
the near type without the aid of
glasses.
The recruit for the nayy must be
able to read 6-6 with both eyes and the
near type at a distance prescribed by
the authorities, without glasses.
Color blindness, squint, or any disease
of the eyes is a disqualification for ad
mission into the navy.
In tbe civil service the candidate
must be able to read at 6 9 with one
eye and at 6-6 with the other with or
without a correcting lenz. Any dis
ease of the fundus renders the candi
date inelligible. Myopia, however,
with a posterior staphyloma, may be
possessed, if the ametropia do not ex
ceed two and ene-third.
Persons having any serious defect
whatever in Bight need not apply for
admission either in the regular army
or the navy.
Coiffure .Ornaments.
Some of the new Parisian novelties in
balr mounts are very beautiful oft the
head at least. A bunch of luscious
scarlet cnerries is attached to a gold
pin that is to be thrust through the
knot at the tack of the head, letting the
cherries droop' slightly just above and
behind the ear. Fruit in the hair, how
ever, under any guise of enamel and
metal, is not to "be commended. Its
incongruity is obvious. We have ac
cepted it on our bonnets, where its use
is less distasteful than the plumage of
murdered birds, but in the coiffure the
association is not acceptable. Freppb,
wpmen regard their hair orpamenls
with great attention. and take as much,
care to suitably complete the coiffure
toilet as that of the corspg-e. Steel, ief.
gilt and silver ornaments are especially
suited to dark hair. Fair-haired women
could wear amber and clear tbrtoise
shell. For even ing vrca r, j?wel?d orna
ments are properly much worn. E-V
eept against n beautiful neck there is
no part of n woman's toilet where gems
may be so well displayed as in the hair.

THE ISLAND CONTINENT.
Australia Is a Land of Loveliness
Through All the Seasons.
"There is nothing," we are told, "that
astonishes the stranger visiting Aus
stralia for the first time to much as the
variety and beauty of its flowers." Au
stralia ia, indeed, a land of floral loveli
ness, and nowhere has nature beei?
more lavish ia her gifts of bud and
blossom than in New South Wales. The
landscape is an endless panorama of
surpassing beauty.
There is a plethora oi color ia the
flowers that everywhere meet the gaze.
They are not placed here and there only,
to give one the impression of limit;
they cover mountains and valleys in all
kinds of forms and, shades of beauty.
Climbers, in rich crimson and inter
spersed with every color.are multiplied
by millions and scattered with a prodi
gal hond that knows no stint nor bound,
save that of infinitude itself, until every
shrub and plant, and bush, robed in
splendor, makes the country gay with
blue and cold and many colored dyes.
The gorgeous coloring of the Austra
lian floral kingdom is hardly to be ex
celled anywhere. Among1 the favorite
native flowers is the stately waratah,
or native tulip, as it is sometimes in
correctly designed. It grows to the
height of four or five feet, the slender
stem being surmounted by a large
dahlia-shaped flower of the deepest
crimson. It is sometimes grown as a
garden flower, but thrives best in the
jush. The native rose, which has no
.-esemblance save in. its delicate pink
cint to the favorite garden flower, is ex
ceedingly plentiful. . The blossom is
small and modest, but wonderfully en
during and forms a charming addition
to an Australian! bouquet.
The rock lily, of which a beautiful
specimen, imbedded in ice. was lately
sent to the queen, is so called from its
being most abundant in rocky country,
where its masses of yellowish-white
blossoms stand out in picturesque re
lief from the dense background of dark
green foliage. The gigantic lily is, per
haps, the most magnificent of Austra
lian native flowers. Pittsburgh Dis

The cream and white veils having an
applique border can but receive a new
impetus for the remainder of the sum
mer. Silk muslin embroidered with pearls
and made over white silk is the latest
thing for wedding gowne, and with
sprays of orange blossoms here and
there it is vastly more becoming to the
average bride than the severe white
satin.
Pique and silk is a rather incongruous-combination,
but it is fashionable,
and so we must look upon it with favor
whether we like it or not. The pique is
used for collars, revers and cape effects

To Keep Money at Borne.
Today The Dalles Crystal Ice Co.
began work of erecting their building
in which they will soon begjn the
manufacture of ice. The building is
to be erected on Second street, next to
J. M. Filloon & Co.'s agricultural im
plement house, and will be a very com
plete establishment. The company
will put in a plant with a capacity of
five tons a day, and will be prepared
to make ice sufficient to supply local
demands, also will be prepared to
supply ice for shipment. This in
dustry is one that will meet
with hearty support from the people
of The Dalles. . The ice that is used
here, costs in freight from North
Powder about $3,000, basides the
cost of putting up and shipping. By
manufacturing the ice that is used in
the city hero, at least the freight
money now paid on ice. will be saved.
Death of Webb Varney.
Last evening at 5 o'clock Leigh
Webber Varney died of cerebro spinal
meningitis at the residence of his
parents in this city. He had been
sick but about forty-eight hours, and
during the most of that time was un
conscious.
Webb was the oldest sen of Mr. and
Mrs. A. N. Varney and has lived with
his parents at this place since, his
early childhood. He was fourteen
years of age and an exceptionally
bright boy. It is especially sad to
note tbe death of one so young and
promising, yet what is death but life?
The funeral will take place tomorrow
at 2 P. M. from the Episcopal church.

"Dr. Miles' Eestorative Nervine has done a
Treat deal ot good. I suffered for years from
sleeplessness and nervous heart trouble.
Would feel weary and used np In the morn
ing, had no ambition and my work seemed a
burden. A friend recommended Dr. Miles'
Nervine, and I purchased a bottle under
protest as I had tried so many remedies un
successfully. I thought it no use. But tt
gave me restful sleep, a good appetite and
restored me to energetic health. It is a
grand good medicine, and I will gladly write
anyone Inquiring, full particulars of my sat
isfactory experience." fasawssaii
