greeting given tbem by the Native

appropriated $100 to be used in
receiving the soldier boys.
Tbe city election held yesterday was
tbe quietest ever held in The Dalles.
Tee re was only one ticket in the field,
tbe nominations . maue at tbe mass
meeting baving been so satisfactory
that the names of other candidates was
considered unnecessary. The result
of tne election is an endorsement of
the acts of tbe council for tbe past
year, since the mayor and two of the
councilmen elected are members of the
present council.
Salem is fast becoming a moonshine
town. The city council has discover
ed that it can save $450 a month by
substituting moonlight for electric
lights and threatens to let tbe town eo
uniighted until fall. The Dalles has a
patent right on this discovery, and
bas been practicing the moonshine,
light for about two years. As a result
several thousand' dollars 'has been
saved the taxpayers, and a cood deal
of "cussing" has be-50 done b.. those
wbo prowl around of nights when the
moon don't shine.

Compton ackooweledged to having
taken tbe articles, but gives as an ex
cuse that he was living in a tent when
bis cousin and wife came to see him,
and' not having any stove he went to
Campbell's cabin and borrowed one
without Campbell's consent. Alter
his visitors left he returned the stove
and otber property.
Smallpox at Hood River.
There is considerable of a stir in
Hood River over the report that a man
afflicted with smallpox had . been
engaged in strawberry pickio? on
Lyman Smith's place. The man's
name is Sullivan and he .-came 'from
uuiiaee. txa was taueu sick ana was.
sent to Portland for treatment, where
it was discovered that he is afflicted
with smallpox. There were only four
or five people camped wi,h him, and
they bave been quarantined by Con
stable Oiinger, so there is little danger
of the disease spreading. Every pre
caution is being taken to confine those
who had been exposed, and if others
take the disease, it will probably be
only those who associated with Mr.
Sullivan after he waa taken sick.
To Whom It May Concern.
Having given up the agency for the
sale of tbe McCormack reaper and
mowers, at Tbe Dalles, in favor of J.
T. Peters & Co., I cheerfully recom
mend them as being well qualified to
take care of the requirements of tbe
trade.
In future, will be pleased to receive
an occasional call at Moro, Ore., from
any of our old friends who may be in
that neighborhood.

Sam L. Si or peon, while not born

ac Isifant in arjxns when bis parents mi
grated hither. J His childhood, youth
and man hood 'were passad in this state,
and in thought, feeling arui character

and thereby ruining the reputation of ,
these Hood Riyer, people's berries
which thebave worked so hard these
many years to build up, -
I desire to etate Id behalf "of these
young "rascals" that lately we have
had tbe pleasure of sampling some of
thesH Hood River berries, and In act.
at this writing;' we havens sample be
fore us now, and w End. these very

to eat at the bottom,'these-'are facts I
that others ran testify to. We do not
care to pay .for reputation, .would
much rather have the berries. Con
sidering these, we believe the papas

spanked first.

GOT T1KED OF LIFE.
Young Man Suicides by Hanging. Near
Grass Valley.
About 10 o'clock last Sunday morn
ing the body of Dan Albright was
found hanging to a beam in the barn
on Dave McAlvy's farm near Grass
Valley. Albright had -been working
for McAlvy for some time, and at
breakfast Sunday morning showed no
signs of being demented, nor did he
give any intimation of having inten
lions of ending bis life. He left tbe
house after breakfast, and nothing
more was seen of him until bis dead
body was found banging in tbe barn
From all indications be bad deliber
ately tied the rope around bis neck
and to a cross beam, then threw bis
body into a position -so as to produce
strangulation.
Albright was about 30 years of age.
and had been about Grass Valley and
vicinity for a year past. Nothing is
known of bis former residence or where
he came from, and as he left do papers
showing where bis friends reside, the
authorities had ' him buried after
holding an Inquest. There, was no
known reason why he should bave
committed the rash deed, and tbe sup
position is that he became tired of
life, and concluded to end his existence.
Fendeton Bonds Sold. -

years, optional after 20 years, will go to

the complete refunding of all the
city's indebteness, and the making of
Improvements. The sale really marks
an era In the city's history. Tbe con
test for the bonds was spirited and the

That a Pendleton financial concern

to be specially remarked, as some of

A Very Creditable Entertainment fre

A large audience, composed princi
pally of relatives aud friends of tbe
hool children who attend St. Mary's

closing exercises of that institution.
This is probably the first year since
the founding of the institution tbat
they bave cot had graduates, neverthe
less, tbis did not detract in tbe least
from the excellence ol the perform
ance.
' It wa9 opened with a piano trio by
three young ladies at each of tbe four
pianos and the manner in which they
performed was sufficient to convince
anyone of tbe careful and t perfect
training tbe young ladies received
Tbe music was harmonious in the ex-
trene and sounded as if but one musi
cian was performing in place of
twelve.
. The little boys and girls followed
with the singing of "Die Wact am
Rbein."
Hoffman's polonaise by six young
ladies on the pianos came next and
the interludes by the mandolins in
tbe distance sounded very beautiful.
- The bow and arrow drill by tbe little
boys highly amused the audience and
were they in tbe Philippines they.
would have merited tbe place of honor
in the first rank, which was awarded
to Aguinaldo's followers wbo. wielded
the cross bow.
Reminiscences of Tennyson by a
number of little girls betrayed marks
of careful training, while tbe number
of the evening was Mascogni'a inter
mezzo by tbe orchestra, and that every
member of the orchestra is an irtist
from the smallest to the largest can
not be doubted.
An interesting dialogue "Cinder
ella's Plot" was highly amusing, while
tbe scriptural scene and tableau waa
indeed beautiful.
Tbe instrumental selections Marine
Trioraphale and La Princess were
followed by a "Good Night drill" by
tbe little girls, and was fully equal to
the bow and arrow drill of the little
boys.
The orchestra played the conclud
ing selection, 4iTbe Souvenir of '99."
The entertainment from beginning
to end was highly amusing and a
credit to both teachers and' pupils as
i well as a sence of delight to tbe par
ents wbo witnessed the clever work
of their children.- .
