' In the election contest of Hinshaw vs Comic, for the office of sheriff of Baker county, Judge Bradshaw last week de cided in favor of Conde, and taxed Hin shaw for costs of the suit. As per announcement, Mackey Bros, pitched their gallery at Condon Monday lust. Those wanting first-class photo graphs had better hurry up, as they will leave here tlOth of next month. I r Fred Monroe, the sheepman, was in ! 1 town Wednesday. He informed us that Joe Potter, one of his herders, shot and killed a huge panther on Kahler creek, Grant connty, last week. It measured 11 feet from tip to tip. Alonzo C. Stevens and family came up from their home in California on June 25th, to visit his aged father at The Dalles, who is very low.

Anthony and T. (J. Johuson retaining their, positions in that capac ity. This being the quiet season for such work, Mr. Anthony has concluded to run the planer of Halstead's saw mill In Lost Valley a month or so. In our rush last week we omitted to mention the baby show on the 4th. Mrs. C. W. Burton's baby took the prize for the prettiest child on the grounds. We also overlooked the 3-legged and potato race, the former being won by Charley Perrin and Frank Pliter, and the latter by Charley Perrin. Dalles Chronicle: Helen Ruth, the little seven year old daughter of Mr. and , Mrs. (loo. H. Thompson, formerly of this city, was brought here from Arling ton for interment, having died of diphtheria Saturday last. Mr. Thomp son is an invalid at the springs in Cali fornia. Mrs. Thompson is a daughter of Judge Condon of this city. About six months ago they lost their little son, and the sympathies of a large circle of acquaintances Ib extended to them in the hours of their afiiiction. The friends of I). H. Ward made ap plication to have him admitted to bail a few days ago before the justice court that committed him to jail for killing John Looney, mention of which was made last week. The application was (wanted, and as soon as the bond was V Ijcepared, eighteen of the responsible citizens of Condon and vicinity stepped forward and signed the bail bond as fast as they could sign it. There was room fur no more names, but many others were anxious to go on the bond. Al though the bail was fixed at the small sum of II1500, the eighteen sureties justi fied as being worth about f 16,000, and are actually worth in the aggregate about 175,000. This Is a straw that indicates that the 'people are with Ward in this trouble, Sheriff Wilcox will start to The Dalles Saturday to release Ward.' The ten largost cities in the world are reckoned In order, as fojlows: London, Paris, New York, Canton, Berlin, Tokio, Vienna, Chicago, Philadelphia, and St. Petersburg, Times-Mountaineer: The Antelope Herald, which was expected to appear on July 1st, was delayed by reason of its material not arriving and will not be published for some days later. Mr. Shutt is a plucky, energetic young man of excellent business qualifications, and and will give the citizens of that town as good a newspaper as any published in the Northwest, for the size of the town. It is a dangerous practice to brand other people's colts. A great many peo ple have learned that from experience. Last week (Jeo, Knox went over to his farm near Lone Rock and discovered that one of his colts had just been taken away from its mother. He soon found it, freshly branded and in a young man's pasture near there. (Jeorge told him the healthiest work he could get at just then was to take the colt buck to its mother and vent it, which he lost no time in doing, in presence of witnesses. It is probable the grand jury will regu late thi ease at the September term of circuit court. Beecher Flat Flabs. Some of our ncighbers are lixin' to go to Athena to work through harvest. A number of Beechcrrlatters went to FoMsil to the celebration, which was ex ceedingly good. We were more ttian gratified with Co 11 carrying oil the honors of the day, Weather cool with occasional showers. There will he considerable grain, not withstanding tne growler and starvation predictor. Home think it was the hot, dry days that injured the crops, br.t it is a mistake. It was the cold, dry wind from the north and west. The grain was benefitted by the hot weather. Go phers are damaging the grain a good deal in this section. , Beeoherflatters are contemplating a picnic at the close of the next term of court, to lie held at the new bridge on Thirtymile, and we invite the honorable court, all its attendants, all the mer chants and business men of Condon, also the road supervisor of district No. 0, as all our people wish to tender him their thanks for putting the road in such good repair from the top of the grade to Thir tymile creek. Wo also want the court, supervisor and citizens to enjoy a first class ride over the road in question. Our people have about given up all hope of ever having the road improved unless thpy do it themselves. It can be safely said, without fear of contradiction, that this is the worst piece of road in the county. What makes it look all the worse is Ui fact that it is one of the leading pnblic highways to the county seat, and is in the county " seat district. One can scarcely ride over the ill-kempt trail without having their neck nnjoint- ed, to say nothing of the human teeth strewn along the way, that have been jolted loose. We are real mad-aliout it, too. Granger. Junction Jottings. A stranger stopped in a bunchgrasa land And noticed the dreary region ; With wondering eyes he gazed on the sand, And thus summed up his version : Go West, go East, it can't l beat , Throughout all nature's wide domain ; For sand and sage it is complete This desolate, wind-blown plain. J. W. Maguire has gone to Fox valley with horses, to be gone about a week. Our school has been in progress six weeks, and has a regular attendance of 11 pupils. Mr. J, E. David of the John Day river has been visiting the family of Mr. Cooke, in this "city." Misses Grace Cooke and Ida L. Baker have returned from their trip to Port land, where they attended the State Teachers' Convention during the last week. They report a very pleasant and profitable time. Horse-back riding has become very popular with the ladies of this burg. We notice, however, that they prefer a gentle steed to that of the justly-celebrated bucking cayuse. It may not bo gen erally known, but it is a trifle embar rassing to a lady to be on top of a cayuse when they occasionally ascend up into the air a rod or 2 and turn around a few times. As aforesaid, we prefer the quiet, old-fashioned horse, Stranokr. Germany Gems. Miss HelmB spent the glorious Fourth at Waldron, and reports having had a glorious time. An itinerant peddler, of sewingma chineproclivities, passed through here Sunday, We inadvertently neglected to ak him where he was going, and for that reason it is highly probable he is still going. Crops look well, considering the slight doso of tropical climate which we have experienced lutcly. Dntchphlnt against the world when it comes to raising any thing if nothing butter than a vigorous cant-hook scrimmage. (The above bril liant joke is purely original). Fires have destroyed lots of good tim ber and grass in the mountains lately, also s6me fence posts. If the follows who started these tires are caught, they will wish, in the next world, that tire had never been .invented, as they will have an ex pel lent opportunity of testing Mr. Satan'ji new-fangled heater, t ' . .

The State Normal school at Monmouth has made a remarkable growth during; the jwst year, aa shown in n gain of 80 per cent in attendance over that of the previous year. The enrollment this year reached nearly 400 students, and the fac ulty anticipate that the number wilt reach fully 500 next year. The school is wide-awake, full of life, and draws a re markably fine body of students. Two new weuiiers have recently been added to the faculty Prof. T. A. tietz, a grad uate of the Millersville, Pa., Stat Nor mal, and Miss Alice L.
