The American hop crop, it is esti
mated, will be 30,000 bales less than
last year. The crop by sections is as
follows: New York state 60.000 bales;
California 38.000 bales; Oregon 65,000
bales and Washington 38.000 bales, a
total of 196.000. Of this amount 75,000
bales will be exported. So it appears
that Oregon will have more hops than
any other state this year, and at pres
ent prices the crop Is worth $2,000,0J0.

Klickitat county has been having
periodical fits of railroad fever for the
past fifteen ' years and now it- has a
double fit. Two parties are looking
over the ground and collecting data
wherbwitb to guide them in coming to
a determination. The project of both
is to build a narrow gague road from
Lyle to Goldendale. The route is
practicable, beyond doubt, and it is
equally certain that it could be built
at no very great expense. That it
would pay from the start can hardly
ba doubted by any one at all familiar
with the immense recourses of that
magnificent country.

The Dalles had its first frost for the
fall of 1898 this morning. This is as
early as it has vlsite J us in 23 years,

RIiUraratoBe Marked by an Approplate
Monument.
In the city of Paris there is a con
vent and garden known through the
immortal Hugo's "Les Miserables."
It is the convent of the Petit Picpus.
In the grounds of this convent is a
small cemeta-y where nearly 1,500
victims of the guillotine were buried
indiscriminately. Here also repose
the bones of La Fayette, besides those
of bis wife, who wished to be buried
there. The resting place of La Fay
ette,generally unknown and forgotten,
is marked only by a pla n granite slab.
Upon a register kept by the concierge
of the con vent there are inscribed the
names of but a small number of
casual visitors.
In view of these facts the "La Fay
ette Memorial Commission" has been
formed fur the purpose of erecting a
mouument to the memory of La Fay
ette as a twentieth cea'ury tribute
from the people of this cation, to be
unveiled with fitting ceremony July 4,
19 JO, and thus grandly celebrate
United States Day at the Paris expos
ition. It is propused that the cost oi
tbd undertaking, which is estimaleJ
to approximate a quarter of a million
dollars, shall be defrayed by small
contributions . secured torou ih the

In the universities and colleges of

In the higher grades of the public

eral plan so far as possible should pre

In the primary grades and districts

The Klondike.
The outlook for the Klondike miner
is surely not so glowing as It seemed
to be a short time ago, at least, when
the great rush was on for the frozen
region. Thousands precipitated them
selves headlong into that far north
west, totally unprepared for its many
hardships and rigorous climate, for
getful of the fact, that, without suffic
ient supplies of food and the common
necessities in clothing, tbey wee
taking cnances which might prove dis
astrous to themselves in the near fu
ture. Every portion of this country
has its reprrsentative In that section
some on whom fortune has smiled, but
the greater number on whom grim
fate has laid the prints of hardship
and suffering, while a goodly num
ber are silently sleeping under tbe
Arctic snows. What was predict
ed is now coming true, and as the
night of that northern clime creeps on
with its darkness and cheerlessness,
to tne disappointed gold-seeker, these
predictions come with convincing
force. The sturdy and ever faithful
prospector has been the moving force
which has made this great West what
it is, and to the energy of these hardy
pioueers who have pushed through
snow and darkness, despite tbe storms
and extreme cold, wlil rest tho future
of the country. But the hardship of
tbe past, and the almost sure suffering
which Is to come to those who have
rushed Into that region duriug i he lust
year, without a liberal supply of money
clothing and provisions, will serve as
a lesson to those who are to go in the
future, and render impossible any such
conditions as now present themselves.

womanly heart
gives a tnroo ot

thought of the
blight upon the
poor little
baby's life. But
a baby need not

which is not

is unfortunate.

and science afford to keep her physical
powers up to the very highest point
' Every expectant mother ought to know
and avail herself of the Ktrengthening and
re-enforcintr properties of Dr. Pierce's Fa
vorite Prescription. It gives health and
endurance to the delicate organs concerned
in motherhood. Taken early during the
period of expectancy, it makes the coming
of baby perfectly safe and comparatively
easy. It makes the mother strong and
cheerful, and gives health and natural vigor
to the child.
It is the only medicine of its kind devised
for weak and delicate women by an edu
cated, experienced physician.
For nearly 30 years Dr. Pierce has been
chief consulting physician to the Invalids'
Hotel and Surgical -Institute, of Buffalo,
N. Y. His thonsand-page illustrated book,
''The People's Common Sense Medical Ad
viser " contains advice and suggestions
which' every woman ought to read. Apa-per-bonnd

Last evening quite a number of in

ball wbere the omen of Woodcraft
entertained them until a late hour.
An excellent program was rendered,
and then fruit was served. Cedar Cir

the hours fly on swiftest wings. After
the program was fiuished last night
dancing was indulged in until nearly
midnight. Tbe program was as follows:
A guitar and mandolin selection by
Prof.. Ryan and Clinton Alden. A
recitation by little Miss Beck was
naively given, and we listened to a
solo by Dr. Doane, which was followed
by a duet by Mrs. Stephens and Mr.
Dawson. Mrs. Filloon then read a
paper which contained tbe local hits.
about members of the Circle. Miss
Mojre sang a pretty little song en
titled, ''I'll take care of you Grandma."
This young girl has a very pleasing
voice for solo work. Thanks are due
Mrs. Patterson, Miss Mjrtle Michell
and Miss Sargeantfor excellent accom
paniments. Prof. Ryan favored the
audience with a guitar solo which was
well rendered, as all his music is,
The male members of the Alyha club
furnished the music to whish tbe
dancing was done. To say the music
was good puts it mildly. Everybody
pronounced the evening an enjoyable
