anywhere in the world wad witnessed
in business circles here the other day
A business firm in the ordinary course
of trade accepted a $20 sold piece that
had been U9ed some time as a pin, and
had on one side a piece of gold solder.
The coin was taken to a bank for de
posit, but after it had been placed on
the scales and proved of full weight
was refused because it was slightly
disfigured. Had it been a bank note

- The Woodmen excursion to Port
land left here at 4 o'clock this morn
ing by the steamer Dalles City, and
passed through the locks at 6:45. The
crowd was not so large as was expected,
though what it lacked in numbers was
made up in quality, for no nicer party

matter so as to get the dryer in opera
tion in time to handle this season's
crop of fruit.
The decoration in Pease & Mays'
window today caused many old vet
erans to pause ana reflect. Beside a
sod-covered grave above which was a
monument bearing the inscription
"Arliugton" were three muskets
stacked, standing as silent reminders
that many who bore them from '61 to
'65 are silent beneath the sod, and
those who yet remain must soon fol
low. Last Saturday five log drivers on J
Klickitat river, who were running

struck a rock, upsetting- the boat and
spilling them out in the river. Fortu
nately they all got ashore, but their
tools went to the bottom of the river,
So far this season the run of salmon
in the Columbia has been comparative
ly light especially on the upper river.
The salmon does not generally start to
run until the weather turns warm and
pleasant, acd so far the season Las
been too cold to bring the fish up in
any great numbers. The owners of
fisheries are cheerful however, as they
have over two months in which to
make a profitable seasons catch and
most generally the big run does not
last over two weeks so that they have
ample opportunity to reap a rich harv
est before the season closes.
J. B. Haverly, of Boyd, was in the
city yesterday and in speaking of the
crops prospect in that section said:
"While the crops are unusually late
on account of the cold weather never
theless the roots are growing consider
able and with a little warm weather
the grain will spring up in a manner
that will greatly relieve the feelings
of many of the farmers who at present
look for a half crop." Like reports
come from all over the interior, and
if an unusual favorable summer does
not come the Inland Empire will pro
duce as much grain this year as ever
before in its history.
AN EVENING WITH TUB CHILDREN.
Closing- Exercises of The Dalles Public
School at the Vogt.
Teachers and pupils of The Dalles
public schools have finished another
year's successful labor a -d Friday night
Vogt opera house was tilled to the very
doors with residents of the city who
assembled to witness the closing ex
ercises. The appreciation of Dalles
people for the efforts exerted by the
teachers, and the interest taken i
education could not have been more
strikingly shown than by the atten
dance of some 1200 people at the exer
cises acd the strict attention given
the rending of the program. Certain
lv the teachers deserve credit for the
work they have performed in training
the youth of the city and the thorough
ness that has been attained, and that
the pupils are most thorough can be
iuds-ed from the fact that not one of
the 200 who took part in the exercise;
faltered in the least or hesitated in the
rendition of their several parts.
The exercises began with a chorus
of 24 girls of the grammar grade who
acquitted themselves admirably
This was followed by the appearance
of "Mother Goose" and her family of
fifty little tots Including "Mother Hub
bard." "Little Boy Blue." "Jack and
Gill," "Blue Beard," "The Old Woman
Who Lived in a Shoe" and all the rest
of those famed characters in Mother
Goose rhymes so familar to children
Neda Benrett was "Mother Goose'
and very perfectly assumed the mater
nal cares devolving upon her. Edna
Sanders next recited "My First
Partv." and the description of what
she anticipated was very prettily told
by the little lady. The minuet was
perfectly executed by ten little folks
in a manner tbat proved that grace of
movement as well as the education of
the mind is one of the features taught
in the schools. "The Little Quake
Sinner" was recited perfectly by
Leona Sexton, and Emilie Crosse
gave a piano solo tbat was well appre
ciated. Roy Johnson next told of
"Teddy's First Pants." a recitatlo
which was heartily applauded. When
the curtain rose again the "Fan
Farries" appeared on the stage, and
presented one of the prettiest sights
of the evening. There were fourteen
little girls clad alternatily in pink and
creec. and executed a fan drill that
could certainly not have been improv
ed upon. Thesong "Summer Fancies
by Lucilo Crate, Lena Moore, Bertha
Robinson and Delia Young was hap
pily received, the young ladies pos
sessing excellent voices that have
been carefully cultivated. The most
attractive feature of the exercises
however, was the "May Festival." Miss
Helen Hudson, clad in white and
presenting a most queenly appearance
appeared on the stage attended by
dozen or more little folks, and was
formally crowned and wreathed with
flowers then was escorted to the station
of honor, a chair raised several feet
above the stage and decorated with
snowballs. Then came the willing
subjects to do the queen homage,
Groupes of four or five little giris rep
resenting the different flowers, a com
pany of small boys with, shield and
swords as guard to the queen, the
butterflies to amuse her, and glad
children to supply- music for her en
tertainment. When they had all
arrived there were more than 1C0
children on the stage, and tbey pres
ented a picture that for beauty could
not be surpassed. The festival closed
with twining the May pole, an exercise
that permitted the children to display
their youthful frolic. The exercises
closed with an amusing chorus by 15
little darkies, who did credit to the
burnt cork artist's profession, enter
ing into the spirit of the fun with an
aptitude of professionals.

DESTROY THE MUMMIES.
Professor
tordley Tells How
Blown
Hot May Be Cured.
A bulletin is beine issued by Profes
sor Cordley, of the Oregon agricultur
al college, on the subject of "Brown
Rot in Fruits." Brown rot is the re
sult of the work of all fungi, and bac
teria, which causes or induces decay
in fruits. It is called brown rot simp
ly because of the browning of the tis
sues of the diseased fruit. Wherever
it occurs the presence of this fungus
is shown by the production of clusters
of ash-gray spores on the surface of
the diseased tissues. In passing
through almost any of our prune or
chards when the "green fruit is being
picked, oue may see here and there a
prune that is partly or wholly covered
with this ash-gray or blue-gray mold.
If one of these prunes be examined, it
may be observed tbat the mold occurs
in clusters, which are frequently ar
ranged in more or less concentric
circles. If these circles be examined
by a small band lens, it can be seen
that they are made up of an immense
number of thread-like projections, and
if these projections be examined by a
strong microscope, it will be found
that they are composed of a great num
ber of small oval bodies joined end to
end like a string of beads. These
minute bodies are the seeds of the
fungus, and every infested fruit is
capable of producing hundreds of
thousands of them, their deyelopement
being favorable in cither dry or moist
air. It is for this reason that the fre
quent sorting of fruit in frnit bins
it conld soon be disposed of and de
stroyed, but it is carried over year by
year by the leaving of dried and rottenU
fruit on the branches of the orchard
trees. These winter fruit mummies
bang on trees all winter, and nourish
the brown rot fungus until it can take
its hold upon the green fruit in the
spring. The careless dumping of rot
ten fruit in the orchard is another
way in which brown rot may be made
permanent.
The best cure for the disease is the
destroying of the fruit mummies. Not
a single one should be left in the or
cbard; nor should any decayed fruit be
dumped near the trees. Another way
to destroy the fungus is by spraying
the trees in the early spring with
solution of copper sulphate, one pound
to 25 gallons of water Then when the
bloom begins to shed, spray with Bor
deaux mixture, and when fault begins
to color, spray with copper acetate
solution. Corvallis Gazette.
Hood River Victorious.
The ball game yesterday between
The Dalles team and the Hood River
crack nine, at the latter place, result
ed in a victory for the Hood River
players. The game was called at 1
o'clock on the field back of town, and
was indeed a pretty contest. It was
evidenced from the start that the
Hood River nine was better practiced
than the players from here, and it was
no surprise to the visitors when the
tallies were added up to learn that the
score stood 13 to 9 in favor of Hood
River.
The excursion from here was well
patronized, about 150 people having
taken advantage, of the occasion to
visit the river-side city. The Regula
tor left here at 8 o'clock and reached
Hood River at 10:30. The Dalles peo
ple on arriving at their destination
amused themselves as best they could
until the game was called, then every'
body went to the ball grounds. There
they spent the time pleasantly until
the boat whistled for their return, and
all got home in due time after a most
enjoyable day on the river and in the
beautiful city of Hood River.
Fruit Is All Bight.
Some time since E. Schanno, mem
ber of the state board of horticulture
for this district, addressed letters to
the principal fruit growers in this,
Sherman, Gilliam, Crook and Grant
counties inquiring as to the condition
of fruit in their respective localities,
and has received answers that are
PREMATURELY OLD.
A man ousrBt not to feel old. or to be old
until well up towards the nineties, but
now-a-aays you don't see many such men.
Instead, you hear people no older than 40
or 45 who begin to complain of tired backs
and brains, of stomachs
giving- out, of shattered
nerves, of lost energy,
of aversion to work.
These men have
thought more of dollars
than of health. They forget that monet is
almost worthless without health to enjoy
it. If men and women will take Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery, they needn't
worry much about old aire. The rears will
go by, but they won't show it This medi
cine makes digestion perfect, and changes
a disordered stomach into a healthy one
that works as Nature intended. It regulates
the liver, enriches the blood and tones the
nerves. It prevents consumption by curing
bronchitis, lingering coughs and blee'ding
lungs. The "Discovery" contains no al
cohol; no false or uncertain stimulus: the
power it gives is the power of Nature: deep,
genuine and lasting. It does not create a
craving for stimulants. In serious cases of
sickness, Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y.,
will give free advice and connsel to those
who write him.
"The reason I delayed writing was because I
wanted to wait ant year after I had taken the
medicine before giving my statement, and now
I can send a good, conscientious testimonial,"
write Chas. H. Sergeant, of Plain City, Madison
Co., Ohio. " During the summer and fall of 1896
I became all ' run-down,' nerves and stomach
were out of order. I wrote to Dr. Pierce for ad
vice. Be said I had general debility, and advised
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, and I
used six bottles. Since I stopped taking it about
one year ago. I nave not taken any medicine of
any kind, and have been able to work every day.
My appetite is good, lean eat three square meals
a day, and I do not feel that miaerabls Iraraina

rather encouraging. From the letters
received it is learned the prune and
cherry crop will be little short of the
average, while peaches and winter
apples will be below the average. The
crop is better at point east of here than
it is in the Hood River section, it hav
ing been less damaged by the Febru
ary freeze in Gilliam and Sherman
counties than in Wasco county.
From no place is their a report of an
absolute failure, and in every section
there will be some fruit for export.
These reports substantiate the claim
that there is never a failure of the
fruit crop in Eastern Oregon, for the
past winter has been the severest test
on orchards ever known on this coast,
and that there will be any crop raised
is a surprise to the people engaged in
fruitraising west of the Cascade moun
tains. Bed Hot From the Una

RAPIDLY ABA KING COMPLETION.
Davidson's Bis; Saw Mill Will Open In
a Few Days.
On or about June 1st Davidson's
big saw mill will begin operations and
from that time on will turn out some
thing like 250,000 feet of lumber daily.
The big mill is almost completed,
although many improvements will be
made in the near future. Later con
siderable new machinery will be put
in making it one of the largest and
most completely equipped plants in
Oregon. As yet their facilities for
getting logs to the mill are not the
best, however, work of blasting ob
structions out of the White Salmon
river and putting Hood riyer in shape
so tbat logs can be driven down theso
streams, is being pushed as rapidly as
possible, and in the near future these
difficulties will be overcome so that an
abundancn of . fine timber can be floated
down to the Columbia and towed to
the mill.
In all probability about four hundred
men will be employed getting out
timber and operating the mill, which
will be' a big thing for the town of
Hood River. A piy-roll like this and
abundant fruit crops with good prices
will make Hood River one of the live
liest little towns in the state. Con
siderable real estate ii changing hands
at present and it is more than likely
many new homes, as well as places of
business, will be built up in that town
during the summer.
Deafness Cannot be Cared
by local applications, as tbey cannct resell tha
diseased portion of the eai. There s only one
way to cure deafness, and that is by constitu
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
flamed condition of the mocous lining of the
Eustachia Tube. When this tube gets in
flamed yoy have a rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it Is entirely closed deafness
is the result, and unless the inflamation ean be
taken out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing out an inflamed condition of
the mocous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that
cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send
