Dr. Weldon, the dentist, came tip from Arlington Friday and expects to remain here ten days. He is an excellent work man and those needing dental work should give hiru a call at his office in Maddoek's hotel. Hood River Glacier: The goods in M. V. Harrison's store were advertised for sale Saturday by the sheritF. But it is quite probable that urrangsnients will be tnude by which the sale will be indef initely postponed.

There fore, we are obliged to kindly request all who are indebted to this great and pow erful weekly to settle without delay. Geo. Tatom and A. J. Walker are put ting a fence around the jail this week. It will be ten feet high, with burbed wire stretched several inches above the top, which will make it very dilllcult to scale, also for the boys to bit on to talk politics If it prove correct that Thos. Coleman, confined In the Oregon peniteutiary, is Thomas Geoghegan and the mnrderer of Dr. Cronln of Chicago, of which there seems but little doubt, it will only be another confirmation of the truth of the proverb, "murder will out." Married, at Mayvllle, Friday, Oct.'7, 1802, Mr. Arthur fltitt to Miss Eva J. Pentecost. They were married in the church by the Baptist minister, Rev. llowerton, before a large crowd of friends.

He was sentenced to two months imprisonment at hard labor for an unprovoked brutal assault upon an old man. j A large crowd of invited guests, princi pally young folks, assembled at Mad dock's spacious hotel Tuesday evening and gave Franky a delightful little party in honor of his 11th birthday. The even ing was spent in plays, music and danc ing, and at 12 o'clock a fine supper was : served to the merry crowd, and ail went i home happy. Great preparations are being made by our teachers and pupils for the exercises on the 21st inst. The program is very interesting and a large crowd is expected to be present. Five or six old veterans have already signified their intention to be present to take part in the proceed ings, and tiie blowout will be worth com ing miles to see and hear. Mrs. E. E. Smith went over to their farm four miles east of Lone Rock last week and returned Saturday with a largo quantity of as tine fruit as we have seen in the country. The Glohk force sampled some it and knows whereof it speaks. Mr. Smith hasa splendid farm, well improved, with a flue young or chard growing thereon. 8. B. Barker returned home this week with his sheep which pastured in the mountains near Austin, Grant county, since spring. J. A. Hpattlding and J. M.

Smithson, one of the wealthiest men in Albina, posted a notice in a prom inent tilnce this week. orTerimi to bet 115,000 to $10,000 that Cleveland will lie elected president, the oiler to hold good till election day. In New York City a number of heavy 4 to 3 bets have been made that Cleveland will carry New York by $10,000 plurality. The presidential election takes place in three weeks from Tuesday, and yet very little interest has been awakened in the campaign. The only election news of the' past week that is anywise sensational is that of the defection of Judge Gresham and Wayne McVeigh, w ho was attorney general under Arthur, both of whom declare their intention to vote for Cleveland. Billy Mack met with a painful acci dent Saturday while in the vicinity of Wagner. About t of the only thumb the poor fellow had, was caught Isjtween the saddle-horn and rope with which ho was leading another horse, and was so badly torn and cut as to make amputation nec essnry, Dr. Nicklin fierforming the oper ation, Billy has but one arm and can ill afford to lose the thumb. Ciias. Slater hag made- preparations for another week's races at his place in Lost Valley, commencing Oct. 17th, next Monday. First day WO-yd race, purse $10, entrance $10, to be added to purse. 2d day 300-yd race, purse $13, entrance $10 to be added to purse,' Both rac.es free to all. Dancing each night. No whiskey or rackets allowed on the ground. Meals 50c. Everybody bring their blankets, The Glodk is very thankful to the thoughtful friends who send in items oc casionally from their respective locali ties, No uiatter what happens that you think will make an item, either drop in and tell us, or drop us a line by mail. The Gwibb already has the reputation of being the best local paper in Eastern Oregon, and it is the aim of the editor to keep it up to its present high standard, W, L, Vanderpool of Dufur, manager of the S. B. Medicine Co,;, visited Fossil Friday, in the interest of this excellent remedy, tie is greatly pleased with the large sales of ids 'medicine in this sec tion, which he very properly attributes, in addition to the medicine's' merits, to the Uuhk' excellent as an udvertiaing medium, It pays to advertise in a pa per having a laro mid healthy circula; liuii, -. . . v -.-'' ' V ; There are a few pretty hard roosters about Fossil, who manage to live some how, even if they have to violate the rules as laid down by our friend Moses. A few nights ago, during the absence of Mr. and Mrs. H. B. Hendricks, someone broke into a commandment, also their hen-house and extracted therefrom sev eral very fine fowls, which, up to the hour of going to press, have not yet been returned. They also pillaged the cellar. The famous Dalton gang of despera does were wiped out at Colleyville, Kan sas, Wednesday of last week. They were rubbing the banks of Hint place when the citizens surrounded them, killing five out of the six of the gang. Four cit izens were killed and several more wounded. Rewards aggregating $10,000 had been ottered for their capture, and the amount will be distributed among the families of he murdered citizens and those who exterminated the outlaws.' The dance given on Cantwell's large new platform in Lost Valley Friday night was a very enjoyable affair and a complete success, socially and financial ly. Over 100 persons ate supper, and about 40 numbers were sold. The only unfortunate occurrence was the stealing of a pair of spurs from a saddle. The fellow was discovered in the act, and Mr. Cantwell takes this opportunity to request him to return theiu at once if lie wishes to avoid some very unpleas ant litigation. No questions asked. Milton Eagle: With the exception of a few mossbacks, all the business houses of the town patronize the Eagle's adver tising columns. The readers of the pa per will notice also that it is the busi ness men who advertise who get the bulk of the trade. The public knows that a business that cannot afford to advertise is a dangerous institution to meddle with, and should be shnnned like a pes tilence. Advertisers help out their town more in one day by their methods of do ing Uisiness than the mossbacks would in twenty years. See the new ads of J. H. Downing and Halstead, Rinehart A Co. These enter prising gentlemen know the value of printers ink, and notwithstanding the dull season, they do an enormous busi ness every day. They have learned from long and successful experience that the best investment they ever made is that spent for advertising their business. The public knows that if business men do not ask for patronage through their local paper, that they do not want the trade and would not appreciate it if they got it. Patronize those who ask for your trade, and you will always get the worth of your money. Is Our Ben One of 'Em? St. Louis Republic : For years I have collected and carefully indexed every newspaper item in any way bearing up on the subject of the tallest American family. From careful analysis of this truly imposing array of giant literature I have come to the conclusion that the Petti john family of Walla Walla county, Wash., deserves the cake. My data on the score are hardly as recent as I would like, but they are the "bent in the shop" and here they are: The family consists of ten children, Beven boys and three girls, the average hight of the ten being (Jj feet, and the average weight 214 pounds, including the two children not yt grown. The "baby," a boy of 17, is 7 feet and one inch high and weighs 2G5 pounds. ton Rock Rumblings. R. G. Robinson went to ileppner Wednesday. Tom Johnson was here posting elec tion notices Saturday. Heavy rains the 1st of the week and wound up with cold windy weather. Mat Ilalverson went over to ileppner Sunday and returned Tuesday. He says times are very dull over there; but all the same we noticed quite a bit of bark off one side of Mat's mug when he came home. Times are pretty dull up here, espe cially among those of us who are about "strapped." The word strapped will no doubt recall to the dear reader's mind the days of his boyhood, when he used to be snaked outof bed every morning by weans of another style of a strap, in the hands of an infuriated paternal ancestor. Those are the good old times that a fel low never forgets. It appears that Joe Keeuey is some what disappointed iu not being able to find a sucker' to take the Fossil-Lone Rock mail contract off his hands, since he has taken it at about half what it can be carried for, If such contractors as Mr. Keeuey were forced to carry the mail a few months themselves over some of our mountain roads and winds, we think they would use a little better judgment w hen bidding ou such eon tracts. - ' -. " ' Monday's races at this burg did not bring out mauy people, owing to the cold weather; but a large crowd atteud ed the dunce in the eveniug, while the sports repaired to the gambling hall and played 'ell and poker all night, . Tues day the raves-were more interesting. A puive race was run, the contestants be ing, Earhart's horse, Ward's mare and Ed Smith's horse. The way the lire Hew from their "boot's and the Unit from their ribs was .amazing. But "Otho's Old Cow" got there all spiulled out, win ning by about the length if a coon's tail if you know how loiij; th .it is. ' Co" fov, .: To the Veterans. If all those who are willing to assist us i'i the Columbus celebration will re pori to me at the school house on the 2Jstintt, at 11:30 a. m., arrangements for their part in the program can be made so that there can be no clash. I would say that quite a number have re ported for duty ou that day, and we trust that others will fall in and help to make the day a memorable one for Con ,,on , J. H. Hill. To Our School Patrons. The amount of public money on hand in our district at present is $260, which falls short about $350 of being sufficient to run the six months term of school, at the rate of $100 per month, the amount it will take. i After careful consideration, we have concluded thatt the most practical and satisfactory manner, to the district at large, by which to raise the necessary amount is to levy a rate bill, and thus raise the amount among the patrons of the district who send children to the school. This rate tax will be collected at the end of the term. All scholars at tending our school from outside the dis trict kill be charged as follows: For the grammar department, $6 per quar ter, and the primary department, 5 per quarter, payable strictly in advance.
