C. R. Bone , Mr. Simpson Copple will leave for the East Monday. He goes to Des , Moines, to have his eyes treated by a ' celebrated oculist of that place. His many friends here -wish him a speedy return and the complete recovery of his eight. . . The steamer Regulator is now land ing her freight on the Washington side at the Cascades, the transfer being made by wagons. This is on account of the hig.i water, which prevents the boat on the lower river reaching the Locks. . ' The Columbia is unprecedentedly high for this time of year, -and if the weather turns warm and stays that way, the flood of 1876 will be eclipsed. It is probable, however that the early rise is an element of safety, as a few cold days will check the flood and ease it off. The frost Tuesday night was very spotted, doing serious damage in some Ehu-es and in others not being notica le. A.B.Jones reports that at his place probably a hundred crates of the earliest berries are destroyed. At Tuck er's ice is said to have formed nearly half an inch thick. The reports are meager, but we do not think thedam uge is general. Mrs. ..'Hay ties' arrived home from Portland yesterday. School in the primary department here will continue until further notice.

He tells us the frost did no serious damage to the berry crop there, and that the other fruits were not in jured. , , i The meeting of the Christian En devor Societies held here Monday was a pleasant affair. Three societies from The Dalles and one from the Cascades, besides the tour local societies were represented. John Gerdes has opened a restaurant in connection with his bakery and will furnish meals at all hours. Meals, 25 tents; 21 meals, $4; three big loaves of bread for 10 cente. Ice cream Satur days and Sundays. The Tramp Excursion. .The Portland branch of the Coxey ites made a brief visit to the land of sunshine last Saturday Friday they captured a freight train at Troutdale, but the engine uncoupled and ran away from the hungry but hopeful crpwd. Saturday a special train carrying Su perintendents Dickinson, Baxter and Borie stopped at Troutdale, and the Coxeyites swiped the engine and start ed for the glorious East. The regular engineer and conductor were left in charge of the train, and all the way freight was put off' at the stations as they came along. Quite a crowd was at the depot here to see them go by and admire ' the "heroes." . The train stop; 'I but a 'moment, just .long -nough to let the crowd catch on t'i .:r pole Jolinson, who stood on the with the st irs and stripes float- ig over his scveu-feet-and-a-half form. At The Dalles the engine was un coil pled from the train and, guarded by fifty sturdy tramps, taken to the coal i 'imkert, and loaded with a fresh supply coal. Then the crowd pulled out for Arlington, where they were met by 150 troops from Walla Walla, captured, locked in the ears and started back for Portland. About 75 out of 500 escaped at the Cascade Locks. The balance reached Portland Sunday, and about 5" of the leaders were taken before Judge Bellinger to show cause why they should not be punished for con--tempt. They all expressed regret for their actions, promised not to further disobey the order of the court, and were dismissed with a reprimand. Quite it number of them said they had a suffi ciency and deserted the army, but some oOO went into camp aud expressed their determination to go to Washington. The C. E. Convention. Which met here May, 1st was consid ered by ail who attended, a very suc cessful and enjoyable gathering. From the number present and the spirit man ifested atKhe sunrise prayer meeting it was evident that all were interested. The weather was all that could be desired. The singing was made a prominent feature, of the convention being mostly men aud very , appropri ate to the occasion. The children's song in the evening being cheered to the echo. The convention came to order at 10 o'cloek a. in., with H. C. Batehatu, president of Hood River Union in the chair. The address of welcome by Rev. H. F. Gilt, aud re sponse by Miss Etta Story, of The Dalles, were both good and right to the point. Then followed an open parlia ment on the work of the lookout com mittee led by Rev. Kauffman of the U. B. society. After dinner the conven" tion organized by adopting constitu tion and the election of i he following otticers: President, H. O. ' Batehum, Hood River; Vice President, E. H. Merrell, of The Dalles; Secretary, Mrs. C. E. Aldrich, Cascade Locks; Treasur er, Miss May Robins;".' The credential committee reported forty-two delegates present including a few honorary del egates voted in by the convention. The county secretary reported ten so cieties in existence of which eight were represented. The reports from the so cieties were unusually Interesting be ing frequently cheered. Mrs. Gilt's paper on. "Interdenominationalism" was enjoyed by all denominations alike. The afternoon session .closed with a question box which brought 6ut suggestions and discussions which were helpful to all societies. In the eve ning the U. B. church was filled plat form and all. After the devotional ser vices Rev. J. R. Parker gave an inspir ing address of ".Christian Citizenship" followed by Mr.-' Bartmcss with- a pa per on "The possibities of life" and the Rev. J. W. Jinkins on "The Pledge" all of which were highly appreciated. Resolutions' were passed thanking the citizens for their hospitality, the two churches for the use of their buildings, the Regulator Co. for reduced rates, the school directors for closing school on behalf of the convention, the speakers for their addresses and papers and the local union executive committee their untiring work in making out the pro gramme and arranging for the conven tion. Most of the delegates stayed over night." The delegates from The Dalles going back by boat Wednesday. Cum. The Ifew School House. v The directors of this school district have agreed upon a site for the new school house. It is just back of the Coe building formerly occupied by Mrs. Fulton. The grounds are 200 by 270 feet, practically level, and can be sup plied with water from the present water system. It is the best location, every thing considered, ;n the district, and the directors are to be commended for their wise choice." We understand the bonds can be sold at any time and that work will be commenced as soon as this is done and plans adopted. , Attention 1) Co.

Can reccommend it as a first-class ar ticle. Yours Truly, J. SEULBERGER. In the year 1893 I used over a ton of Acme Insecticide for the black and brown scale, and this season I am spraying every tree I have in my or chard.

Risen From the Sea. Geologists have collected in Barba does and other islands in that region Bome curious information,' which they publish as evidence that during the pliocene period, when man. is sup posed to have made his advent, the whole of jthe Caribbean region was 'deeply submerged. They found plen ty of earths not only in Barbadoes, but also in Jamaica and Cuba, which contain great quantities of the re mains of, radiolaria. At present no radiolarian ooze is found on the floor of the Caribbean sea, although the greater part of the sea is more than 12,000 feet deep. . ' . These earths must of course have been deposited in the depths of the eea, and it is inferred that in the course of time they were raised thou sands of feet until they became a part of the land surface. ' Mr. Jukes Browne and Professor Harrison think that the oceanic deposits of Barba does were formed at a depth of 12,000 to 18,000 feet below the sea level. ". Professor Sollas says that it can no longer be accepted as an assured fact that deep sea -deposits never enter into the composition! of land masses. American Register. For Diffusing Light Indoors. A well known Boston investigator in economics has been experiment ing with various kinds of glass to as certain the one best adap'ted for win dows - in -laboratories, . engraving rooms, weaving rooms, etc. -In these places a strong ' light is desired, which at the same time shall be free from glare and shadow. Shades are unsatisfactory at all times. , The ex periments so far show that ribbed or fluted glass most nearly meets the required conditions. About 22 flutes to the inch are desirable. , This kind of glass absorbs much less outdoor light than a shaded window and not much more than clear glass. Buffalo News. ' AN EXAMPLE Or IMPUDENCE. In This Tale a Vice la Carried to the Apex of the Sublime. She was a very sweet, gracious old lady ; her manners were full of dig nity ; when she conversed with a young man it was a distinction for him ; when she conversed with a girl it was an honor for thaf; girl. When I first knew that old lady, she lived in a large house and kept a car riage; sho gave rather stately dinner parties; she had rather formal re ceptions ; she was the queen of the quarter where she lived. . Everybody respected her, and all those who had the privilege of her friehdshij) loved her. Suddenly . she let her great house and gardens and removed into quite a small villa, with a little garden ; also she gave up her car riage and limited her household to one servant. And she gave no more parties. ' , It was understood that this dear old lady had lost her fortune. But nobody knew the facts, nor could anybody ask. She retired to this lit tle villa and continued to have receptions,- at which tea and home made cake were the only luxuries offered. Also, there arrived at tlfcj juncture a niece, of whoso existence no one had previously been aware. She was not nice, this lady; it is no fault to be no longer young or good looking, but one ought at least to be well bred and good tempered. Now, after a year or two, daring which the bitter tongue and the bad temper of the niece caused continual misery to the old lady, there came a time of sickness. It was the plague of influenza. Many, of us in the quarter had it very badly, among others the old lady's niece. For the old lady's sake, not from any love of our own, we were shocked to learn that the niece was dead. ' A month or two afterward the old lady told me a story. , She said: "You know that I lost all my money. It was lost for me. It was my man of business who stole itf. He forged a power of attorney and sold my stocks; he gambled with the proceeds and lost the whole. When there was no more, he confessed the rob bery. But, he said, to prove the es teem in which he held me, he had brought his only child with him, and he would leave her with me until better days. So he kissed my hand and left me, and that," she ex plained, "is the reason why I had to leave my dear old house and to receive this poor creature whose un fortunate manners and bitter tongue made me miserable all day long. I have often thought" Here she stopped, and thinking of that sub- - MnW jtnd ufteqmiled impudence I, too, have often thought: New York Recorder. -- Th Con boy'o Marveloun Memory. "Of all tnen in the world not ac counted prodigies I think the cow boy's memory and intuition are the most marvelous," said E. H. Cunning ham of Indian Territory at the La clede. : "1 have witnessed feats of memory performed, by cowboys that appear preposterous when related. For instance, 1 was on a drive from the Texas Panhandle to the territory a few weeks ago with 7,000 cattle. Twelve men comprised my outfit. We had a couple of big stampedes, and after we got the frightened cattle rounded up, how do you suppose we were able to tell hqvv many were missing You naturally . think we went through the laborious task of cutting out and counting them, and that's where you are mistaken. "Every one of my 12 men was so thoroughly acquainted with the herd that either of them could, by getting on an elevation so as to get a clear sweep of the entire herd, tell exactly how many and the kind of stock we hail missed in the roundupj Not only t hat, but he could pick out all the stray cattle that had got mixed iu our bunch without seeing the brand. It is a marvelous accom plishment, and one that is attained only after long service in the 'bull punching' business." St. Louis Globe-Democrat. Impressing; a Lesson. During my second year at the Jef ferson Medical college, Philadelphia, 1 had a classmate whom it would not be uncharitable tocall a dullard. One of the professors was in the habit of taking the boys unawares and quiz zing them. He said, to this fellow one day: , ' - "How much is a dose of ?" giv ing the technical name of croton oil. "A teaspoonful," was the ready re ply. ,;A . The professor made no comment, and the fellow soon realized that he had made a mistake. After a quarter of an hour he said : "Professor, I want to change my answer to that question." "ls's too late, Mr. responded the professor, looking at his watch.
