Last Saturday Yakima Indians brought in 316 head of ponies that were shipped to the Linnton cannery to be converted into prime can ned beef. The horses were in rather better con dition than those delivered here some time ago, and will make pretty good meat.

After sobering up, he appeared before Recorder Gates this morning, and donated $5 to the city funds as penance for his spree.

Sold by Ben Wilson, The Dalles, Miss Daisy -Dean left this morning for Portland to join her parents who have located in that city. A. McAdam has returned from his visit to the sea coast and has resumed his duties in Pease & Mays' store, Mrs. Truman Butler and Miss Jennie Marden returned home last night from a visit to Skagway. Hon. E. B. Dufur and family re turned last evening from Wind river where they have been camping. A. J. Dufur came up from Portland last evening, and today went to Dufur to look after his interests there. This morning Messrs. Skibbe, Mon ger and Uonnell started for Eight- Mile for a week's hunting and fishing. Last night W. C. Barrell received a dispatch notifying him th;it his mo her was dangerously ill in Portland, and he left for that place this morning. Last night the rain fall was 15-100 of an inch, making all told 38 100 that have fallen so far this month. This is the heaviest rain fall in August for a number of years. Simeon Bolton and family came home last night from their camp at Stevenson. Mr. Bolton says they were drowned out by the rain storm of Sunday and yesterday. C. B. Johnson and family left this morning for Portland. Mr. Johnson has bo. ii quite ill for some time past and has gone to the city for the pur pose of taking treatment in a hospital. Messrs. E. C. Pease, J. S. Fish and Frank Fulton left last night for Baker City and from there will go to the Greedhorn mining district to e.xamine their property, the Gold Eagle mine, which J. H. Cradlebaugh is operating. D. C. Riggs arrived here yesterday from Colwell Kan., to visit his daughter, Mrs. I. J. Butter. If favor ably impressed with Oregon, he may determine to make his home in this state. Although .wheat is only quoted at 50 cents here, there is every indication that good prices will prevail later in the season. There is a short crop in Russia, in fact a total failure in many parts of the empire, and in the United States the crop will be far below that of last year, hence when wheat for ex port is required stiff prices will prevail. Astorians and a good many of the visitors who had assembled there for state regetta were somewhat disgusted with the weather yesterday, as the rain came down in sheets, and' prevented the coronation of the queen. The bay was covered with clouds and fog, so that it was dificult to see the races from the shore. The unfavorable weather spoiled all the sport, and anything but an enjoyable time was had. The Summerfallow Machine Co. of Dufur has increased its capital stock from '93000 to $20, 000 and will com mence the manafacture of the Ander son weeder on an extensive scale. At a recent meeting of the stockholders W. H. Helsler, Wm Heisler, M. J, Anderson ,and w. a. I'atison were elected directors, and M. J. Anderson was elected president of the corpora tion and W. H. Heisler secretary and treasurer. The State Press Association met in annual session at Astoria yesterday, and despite the torrents of rain that poured down there was a fairly good attendance. The report of Secretary Tozier showed that there were in the state 222 publications on August 12. Of these 160 are weeklies, 38 monthlies, 19 dailies, 4 semi-weeklies, and one semi-monthly. It classes them as in republican, z democratic, populist, one prohibition, 14 rellg lous. 26 Independent, 10 fraternal, 4 agricultural, 2 amateur, 5 college, 7 miscellaneous and 2 poultry. Y- .iterday afternoon C. M. Grimes cam - i a from a trip to Cherry creek, in V ..eeler aounty, where he had been buyi g beef for the Portland market. He reports a heavy rain at Bakeoven Sunday night. Fruit raisers are about the only class of farmers that were not damaged by the rain. They are perfectly safe for a while yet, and if it turns off warm two weeks from now the fruit will be benefitted by the cool weather. Another heavy rain fell all over the county last night, and gave grain a thorough soaking. The sun and wind today dried it pretty rapidly, and if no more falling weather occurs, there will be no material damage to grain. According to the last bulletin issued by the departmen of agriculture 2.000,000 bushels of wheat have been ruined in North Dakota by heavy storms and recent rains. It also re ports heavy damage to crops in Min nesota. A considerable amount of grain has been damaged by rain in Willamette valley. Along the foot hills and near the timber wheat has sprouted in the phock, and is totally ruined. It is feared the hop crop will also be con siderably damaged. Today Alex McLeod brought m a sample of little club wheat from Remi Rondeau's place on Tygh Ridge that is as plump and fine as any grain ever raised in this country. Mr. Rondeau has finished threshing, and had the best yield yet reported. His wheat made 42 bushels to the acre and his barley 57 bushels. Of recent years mining in Eastern Oregon has been confined to the Blue mountain districts, but recent de velopments have shown that the Trout creek country is rich in minerals, and much is expected of that section. The two companies that have undertaken to develop the mines there the Oregon King Co., and the Antelope Gold & Silver Mining Co. will push matters along, and it is expected very valuable property will be developed in a short time. His Life Was Saved. Mr. J. E. Lilly, a prominent citizen of Hannibal, Mo., lately had a wonder ful deliverance from a frightful death. In telling it he says: I was taken with typhoid fever, that ran into pneumonia. My lungs became hardened. "I was so weakI couldn't even sit up in bed. Nothing helped me. I expected to soon die of consumption, when I heard of Dr. King's New Discovery. One bottle gave me great relief. I con tinued to use it, and now am well and strong. I jan't say too much in its praise."

CRUDE OIL THE THING. A. Railroad Has Settled the Dost Problem With Oil. The experiment of making a railroad dust proof and water proof by the use of crude oil has been tried during the past year in the East with success In the West, the Burlington railroad is the first to adopt the improvement. General Superintendent Calvert had part of the Wyoming division of the Burlington treated with crude oil and the results there have been so satisfactory that he is making arrange ments to continue the work elsewhere on the system. Two oars were ea pecially arranged for sprinkling the track and the road bed with oil. Oil was sprinkled in the center of the track and on the outside of the rails for about five feet. One application of the oil keeps the track free from dust for about one year. The number of hot- boxes on trains is considerably les. sened, and the comfort of passengers is greatly enhanced. An additional ad' vantage in treating the track with oil is that moisture will not then pene trate through the oiled outer crust. Instead, the water runs off the track into the ditches at the side. Vegeta tion along the track is destroyed by the use of oil. Mo Bight to Ugliness. The woman who is lovely in face, form and temper will always have friends, but one who would be attrac tive must keep her health.

Anderson, a contrivance intended to clear summer fallow of weeds and other troublesome growths.

Central Navigation & Construction bo. .Representatives Meet Dalles Busi ness Hen. Friday night a party of gentlemen representing the Central Navigation & Construction company arrived here after having spent the day examining the survey of the proposed portage road across the river, and met a num ber of Dalles business men at the D. C. & A. C. rooms. Among the party were Paul F. Mohr, Wm. Harris, Oscar Huber and W. J. Strack, engin eer for the company. Unfortunately Senator Geo. Turner and Mr. Graves, two of the principal movers in the en terprise, were prevented from coming here on account of business engage ments elsewhere, hence little could be accomplished, though those gentle men will arrange a date for a meeting with Dalles business men some time in the near fu'.ure. The representatives of the company who were here were frank to state their purposes and interventions, which are to construct a portage road from Columbus to a point opposite The Dalles, and to operate a line of staamers on the river. -They are kindly diposed towards toward The Dalles, and appear desirous to make this the terminal point of their road, but there is a barrier in the propo sition of getting across the Columbia, which will be considered later. It is a matter which will come up for dis cussion in the future as details can not be presented at the present time, for no one is able to make a definite estimate of the cost of a bridge across the river, and until this can be done, nothing tangible can be determined Advertised Letters. r ouowing is tne list oi letters re maining unclaimed in The Dalles post- office Saturday, Aug. 19, -1899.

An Interesting Social. The Christian church Friday night was the scene of one of tbe most inter esting socials ever held in the city. Be sides tne customary program, a ques tion box was provided, in which ques tions were placed for the returned soldiers to answer. Anybody was privileged to deposit ' queries, and some spicy answers were given by the soldier boys. One question was "How about the Filipino girls from a matri monial standpoint?" To this Will Brown replied that they were probably all right for Filipino boys, but for a Dalles boy they would not fill the bill. for no young man after having seen tbe.pretty girls of Tbe Dalles would ever consent to be tied to a dusky maiden of the archipelago. Another question, "How does it seem to be in battle?" was answered by Earl Sanders, that it is all a dream. The soldier realizes that there is an enemy ahead and officers behind; that he is ordered to ngnt, and ne goes into battle in a sort of half conscious, dreamy state, and goes through the engagement hardly realizing what he does. Walter Reavis and John McNeil also gave some interesting answers to questions that were presen ted. The social closed with an ice cream festival, and the evening was both profitably and en- joyably spent. IT NEEDS STEAJT. If there's no steam in a fire-engine it won't do its work. Heavier metal or larger wheels won't help it It needs steam. It's same when a man's strength is gone, he wants new hie fr vitality, it makes no difference how large his frame may be or how big the muscles on his arms and legs; if the inner power and force of life is lacking he can't do his wotk; ne is practically a sick man. You can't make him well by feeding him with oily emulsions. There's no use in flabby fat. His ororjer weicht will come after he gets well. The first thing he uceus is acrengxn, iorce, steam. About a vr SflVS Mr. Tohn RmnV. of Bovlston- M I was taken with a bad cold which settled on my lungs. The doctors said I was in consumption and could not get well. I took emulsion of cod liver oil ana it uMi mc no gooa. Alter taking it lour months I heard of Dr. Pierce's Golden Mtdiral nimni and wrote to him for advice. I have taken this medicine and it saved my life. I felt so sick when I wrote to him I thought T wn,,id nnt i;M the winter through. " In the morning I wonld raise an awful lot and spit all the time, with pains in my chest all the time. My bowels would not move more than once or twice a week ; my strength was nearly all gone ; I could not do a whole day's work. Now my bowels are regular every day. and I feel no more pains in my chest. I feel a great deal stronger. I am working hard every day, driving a team in the woods, and I owe my thanks to Dr. Pierce's Golden Med ical Discovery. I know it saved my life. I cannot praise it enough. I am proud to tell my friends what cured me."

In its endeavors to improve the na tional marine life-saving systems the United States board for that purpose has recently examined a considerable number of appliances brought to its attention by inventors. Among these is a model of a serpentine ship, con structed by James Graham, the pecu liar feature of which is shat the body of the ship will revolve. in t.h war.pr and the occupants will be in an In terior cylinder. Perhaps a more prac tical idea is that presented in the makeup of life preservers as developed by C. Moller of Norway, who has made a padded vest and used reindeer hair for padding, the claim being- that such hair, whether dry or wet, is as buoy ant as cork and more durable. In behalf of this latter device it was urged before the board that life pre servers or belts made of canvas and filled with reindeer hair have the desirable advantage of giving to the user more freedom of action, while there is also less liability to catch obstructions or to injure the hands by contact when rowing.

Eastern Oregon, and especially Wasco county, has never experienced a much more unfavorable season than this has been. The farmers have ex perienced unusual hsrdships, and since they are the backbone of the country, all others must suffer by reason of their misfortunes. The extreme cold in February froze out many fields of fall wheat thai bad to be resown in the spring, which made double expense to ' the wheat growers, and then tbe hot spell in July ruined a good deal of late grain, while tbe quality of all was more or less reduced. Following these misfortunes came the rains of last week and this, that have retarded harvesting, and possibly may yet re sult in considerable grain being in- ! jured. Taken all together it has been a season which farmers hope will never be repeated. How's This? We offer One Hundred Dollars Reward for any case of Catarrh that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure.
