An enjoyable party was given by Miss Margaret Kloersly to number of her girl friends last even las. All were in a frame of mind to enjoy themselves to the full measure, and with such feeling it is unnecessary to say that the youDg folks had one of the best of times. Tire evening was spent in singing, dancing and .playing various games. Before partaking of refreshments all joined 'n dancing the cake walk, and from accounts of the same, some of the participants would have put professionals to shame.

She leaves a husband, an in' fant child about two weeks old and several older children. E. C. Edwards, of Arlington, is in the Willamette Valley bargaining for six hundred tons of hay which he will ship to Arlington in the near future. As nay is very scarce In the country south of that place he will be in a position to demand a handsome figure for tbe same aod the venture will cer tainly prove a profitable one. LesB fear for the safety of tbe boats which are hemmed in by the ice at this place is felt today, since it is be ginning to break on the Washington side of the river. If this state of affairs continue tbe boats will not be in any danger. If the ice comes down in any great amount from parts up the river before it breaks here, however, some trouble may be experienced. i The funeral of Frank Abernathy was held at 2 o'clock yesterday after noon from -the ' Masonic hall in this pity. It was attended by a large num ber of bis brother Masons and friends. The impressive ceremonies of the Masons were recited at the grave by Chaplain M. Z. Donnell. Edward Clanton arrived in the city Saturday from his home at Columbus. Wash. - When crossing the river at Arlington he fell through the ice and had a narrow escape from drowning.

Estebennnt who for borne time has had charge of the Moody alley in conjunction with Harry Esping, will take charge of the Umatilla House al ley today. ; A dispatch published in yesterday's Oregonian states that the steamer Regulator, at The Dalles has been hauled up several hundred years, and is probably out of danger. It Is to be hoped the statement Is incorrect, and that the boat will plow the Columbia again as soon as the ice disappears. People here would regret to see their favorite boat hauled up "several hundred years." The Dalles charter, which had been submitted to the legislature, passed yesterday. Misses Bertha f nd Lena Burckbardt of Portland, arrived in-the city on last night's train and will attend the Elks ball this evening as well as visit Dalles friends for a short time. This trial will take probably a week to try and judging from the interest already shown the courtroom will be packed with spectators during the trial. Harry C. Liebe received a letter from Rev. W. C. Curtis, formerly pas tor of the Congregational church of this city, today. Rev. Curtis Is at pres ent in Norwalk, Connecticut, and is as much of an enthusiast over Indian relics as ever. He sent Harry a num ber of arrowheads all the way from the east to mount, knowing that no one could excel him in this class of work. He states that it is his Intention to ex hibit his entire collection of Indian rel'cs consisting of Indian baskets, ar rowheads, bowls and other curios be fore tbe ladles club at Norwalk on tbe 24th of this month. As he has an un usually fine collection it will be a rich treat for the people of tbe ea9t to see so many relics from distant Oregon. Robert Gutberie is in tbe city from Shetman county. His accounts of the condition of stock in that section are none too flattering. Ho says if the present mild weather continues stock men will pull through all right as their losses so far have not been com paritively heavy, but if another storm comes they will be almost certain to lose as hay is nearly all fed oat and cannot be purchased at any price. Reports from Grant and Harney coun ties are equally discouraging and one party, who poses as an autbority de clares thet at least 200,000 bead of range horses will die during the present winter in Eastern Oregon. This is probably an exaggeration as tbe spring round up will prove. Late yesterday afternoon the ice in the Columbia broke opposite this city and began to move around at a lively rate. For a time it was feared tbat much damage would result from the large field of ice coming in contract with tbe boats. The Regulator was lifted by the ice towards the beach but not injured. During the night the river rose about four inches so that at present the boat is comparatively safe and afloat. The Klickitat was struck by scow on which tho pile driver is placed and one of her wheels badly broken. The force of the ice threw her up on the shore and she is carreening considerably and evidently in a bad shape. The Rockland ferry and the D. P. & A. N. wharf boats are both uninjured as yet and may not be damaged Tell lour Bister.

Walker Faun Peacefully Away on Saturday Afternoon. On Saturday afternoon at about 5 o'clock Oregon lost one of its old and respected pioneers. Arthur M. Walker was born in Illi nois about 78 years and 2 monthB ago, and came to Oregon in the early fifties settling In the Willamette valley. He served In the Rogue Riyer Indian war under Captain Joseph Blakeley, father of George Blakeley of this city, and shortly afterwards came to East ern Oregon and has made his home in this vicinity ever since. He was a sincere christian and bas been a minister in tbe Methodist church for over 50 years. He was married twice his first wife having died about 40 years ago. He was mar ried a second time in The Dalles in 1873 and his second wife survives him. His married life was blessed with but one child a son who has since died. "His funeral was held from the Meth odist church Monday afternoon and was attended by a large number of his old friends and members of the con gregation. Rey. Wood preached an appropriate funeral sermon in which he spoke at length on the pious life and good works of the deceased, after which the remains were layed away in the Odd Fellows cemetery with the honors he so justly merited. A happy mother is tbe happiest being in this world. To hold in hex arms the dear little life a part of her very own life nest ling, trusting and dependent on her protecting love, is the sweet est, most sacred re sponsibility of a wo man's distance. But many a woman approaching the time of motherhood feels most deeply its duties and trials. - She - is burdened with a sense of anxiety and unreasonable foreboding. This state of mind is un favorable both to the mother and the child. A prospective mother may insure herself against the slightest far of danger or exces sive pain by the use of Dr. Pierce's FavoriU Prescription, during the period of expect ancy. This " Prescription " makes the coming of baby absolutely safe and compar atively painless. - It rives elastic endurance to the organism specially concerned in motherhood, and healthy vitality to the nerve-centrea. It makes tne mother strong and cheerful. It gives her recuperative power. It promote abundant nourishment and provides con stitutional health and energy for the child. ' It is the only positive specific for all dis eases of the feminine organism, devised by an educated and skilled specialist in this particular field of pracice. Its sale ex ceeds the combined sale of all other ined icines for women. - a I am very thankful for what Dr. Herec's Fa vorite Prescription has done for me," writes Mrs. Etta E. Smith, of Grenola, Elk Co., Kanaaa " About a month before I was confined I had soch pain I could stand up only a little while at a time. I could not rest at night at aU, nor at any other time. I could scarcely eat anything at all. I began taking Dr. Pierce's Favorite pre scription and after the second dcae I felt better. From then until I was sick, I carried nearly all the water that was used, up a long hill, and worked in the garden every day, besides my ether work, and did not feel at all bad. When the baby was born the doctor and the women who were with me said I had aa easier time than any one they ever sew for tbe nrat time. The baby is very healthy and geowiag right along. I as totes ay rm mw sa was avsaayscid." On Monday Elliott Roberts, the 7-year-old son of Representative A. S. Roberts, of this county fell down the stairs at the state house, but was not seriously injured. It was, however, a close call for the young statesman, as he went headloug oyer the banisters, landing on bis back. Today William . Hoering resumed work as clerk in tbe Umatilla House having been forced ' to lay off for several months in order to have a difficult operation performed in St' Vincents Hospital in Portland. He is feeling much better although not ing recovered from the effect of the operation. ine uaues nas a , busier appearance today than any time since the holidays A large number of people are in the city from all over the interior, attend ing circuit court, as jurors and wit nesses, and since the warmer weather the roads are in a better condition so that country people are in a position to come in and do their trading. The funeral of Mrs. F. Headley took place from tbe residence ot her aunt, Mrs. Arthur Walker thl3 afternoon. The last few days have certainly been disastrous for her family. Saturday Mr. Walker died, yesterday Mrs Headley passed away in tho prime of life while Mrs. Walker is at present in a critical condition and is expected to liye but a short time. Mrs Headley left a husband and ten children to mourn her loss, the youngest being but ten days old, while the oldest is a boy of about 23. Her remains were layed away in Sunset cemetery, . The high score on the different alleys were as follows for the week ending yesterday.

At the Umatilla House alley Monday, O. Osland 51, Tuesday, T. Pundt 53: Wednesday, Douglass 50' while on Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday A. Cathcart made 51, 53,55 and 51. The beautiful weatber which we en joyed this morning caused all who could possibly spare tbe time to turn out for a quiet stroll to enjoy the balmy air, to view the enormous quan tity of ice in the Columbia and admire the surronding hills as they ' turn green with the tender grass and grain which is rapidly growing under the favorable circumstances, which the spring, like weatber affords. A few more days like this will certainly in augurate spring in all it phases and will delight every one who has grown tired of what has been an unusually severe cold spell for Oregon. The jury was excused this morning until 1 o'clock tomorrow afternoon owing to the fact that there will be no cases in which a jury will be required before that time. Tomorrow attorneys W. H. and H. S. Wilson of this city and F. P. Mays of Portland, attorneys for Forester and Hon. A, A. Jayne and A. S. Bennett, attorneys for the state ill begin choosing a jury for this im portant case which U at present arous ing so much interest among the friends of Forester and tbe SBrdered A 8BBIOUS ACCIDENT. Mr. and Mrs. Byan Thrown from a Vehicle . sad Seriously Injured. A very serious accident occurred on the three mile hill yesterday afternoon about 4 o'clock, and it was only sheer good luck that Mr. and Mrs. J. Ryan, of five mile escaped with their lives. They were driving 1 home from The Dalles in a light buggie when going no tne bill on tne other side or tnree mile on what is known as the Benson road ' they met the Bakeoien stage oming down. At this place there are two roads one several feet below the other. ' Both teams were on the upper road and when the stage was panssng Mr. Ryan's team, the wind Die w the curtains so that the horses became frightened and leaped over tbe bank to the road below throwing Mr. Ryan with considerable force down the side hill, against a wire fence, while his wife was thrown over the dashboard of the buggie and under the horses feet severely injuring her. The stage-driver immediately stop ped and ran to their assistance. was found that Mr. Ryan escaped with a few bruises, while his wife was in critical condition. She was taken tbe . borne of her ,son-io-law Mr Darnille, of this city and Dr: Belle Rinehart called to attend to her in' juries. It was round tbat tnree ribs were broken close to the spinal column and her ' collar bone was fractared As yet it is impossible to tell if she is injured internally. She rested fair ly wail last night and appears to be on a fair wav to recovery. ' Story of a Slave. To be bound band and foot for years by the chains of disease is the worst form of slavery.

There is often a foul taste in the mouth, coated tongue and if the in terior of the stomach' could be seen it would show a slimy, in flamed condition. Tbe cure of this common and obsti nate trouble is found in a treatment which causes tbe food to be readily, thoroughly digested before it has time to ferment and irritate the delicate mocus surfaces of the stomach. To secare a prompt and healthy digestion is the one necessary thing to do and when normal digestion is secured the catarrhal condition will have disap peared. According to Dr. Harlanson the saf.-st and best treatment is to use . f erjach meal a tablet, composed of diatase, aspeptic pepsin, a little nux, golden seal and fruit acids. These tablets can cow be found at all drug Stores under the name of Stuart's Dys pepsia Tablets and not being a patent medicine can be used with perfect safety and assurance that healthy ap petite and thorough digestion will fol low tbeir regular use after meals. Mr. N. J. Booher of 2710 Dearborn Street; Chicago, 111., writes: "Catarrh is a local condition resulting from a neglected cold in tbe head, whereby the membrane of the nose becomes in flamed and the poisonous discharge therefrom passing backward into the throat reaches the stomach, thus pro ducing catarrh of the stomach. Medi cal authorities prescribed for me for three years for catarrh of the stomach without cure, but today I ami the har piest of men after using only one box of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. I can not find appropriate words to express my good feeling. I have found flesb, appetite and sound rest from their use."

A Host Fortunate Accident. What have resulted in a most dis astrous railroad accident was averted by chance on tbe O. R. & N. line at the crossing of Deschutes river last uight. Train No. 4, going to Spokane was passing over tbe bridge across Deschutes when one of the trunks un der the smoking car jumped tbe track. the flange on one of tbe wheels having broken entirely off. Fortunately the train was going very slowly, else every car would have gone off the track into the river, and it would have been a mere accideut if any of the large num ber of passengers escaped alive. Tbe accident was one of those an accountable occurrences that cannot be accounted for, as tbe car wheels had all been inspected at Portland before starting, and also here before leaving the yards. While tbe accident was not serious, it caused a delay of about fifteen hours, it being very difficult to get at the disabled car to put on a new wheel, though no one was injured except by tbe jostle tbat was given the passengers in the smoking car when the truck went off the track.
