A California paper says of the place : “The welcome news wa* received that Carneros is to have a post- office with Mrs Rosa M. Cook as post mistress. and'the name will be Dumbar ton. Dumbarton is a very good old Scotch name, but our people are very much attached to the Carneros name, and would have been much pleaded if the name could have been retained, but similiarity of other names prevented........ It is reported that Mr. C. II. Cook will open a general store at Carneros. We have also heard that a blacksmith shop will soon be opened in that thriving settlement.” The event of the season : A grand ball, given by K of P. lodge, Dec. 31, 1900. at Campbell’s hall.

The “Kid” band gave an entertain ment at the opera house Wednesday ev ening, with the object of getting money with which to buy uniforms. The at tendance was not large, and the receipts were not very encouraging. The band is composed as follows: Fred Bradley, solo cornet; Clare Snyder and Orville Ar thur, B fiat cornets; Hollie Burns, solo alto ¡Gordon Baker and Morris Arthur, altos; Harry Hobbs, Carl Klyver and ArchieCrewse, trombones; Harry Wood rum and Frank Snyder, bass; Howard Henry, snare drum; John Maloney, bass drum. They have been practicing under Prof. Feely only two months, and ven tured their first selection before the pub lic on the street Wednesday evening. Their playing is very creditable, and the audience, though not large, was appreci ative. They were assisted in their enter tainment by Miss Bonner, an elocution ist, whose work was also good. Dr. J. F. Calbreath has filed his bien nial report of the Oregon insane asylum with the trustees oi that institution. The doctor has lieen superintendent for eleven months. The whole number under treat ment for the two years was 1871. 217 were discharged as recoved, 224 died and 50 escaped. The total remaining Nov. 30, 1900, was 1173. The doctor says: “It is noted that the proportion of cures has risen to 31.9 per cent on admissions during the term, and to 11 '/i per cent on the whole number treated. When we remember that the general average of pa tients diecharged as cured io the United States is approximately 20 per cent on the admissions and ours has reached 31.9 tier cent, it certainly affords satisfaction. Of the whole number remaining in the hospital, November 30, 1900, it is con sidered that 102 oi them may be classed as curable ; 980 incurable, and 91 doubt ful. The check placed upon committing persons because of the temporary aber ration incident to the immediate effects of the 'drug habits’ and their defective contiol of the same, has been effective. Only those really insane, either coinci dently or as a result, fiave been re ceived.” Of the patients now in the asylum, 39 were received from this coun ty, 28 males and 11 females. This is about our full quota on an equal division among the counties of the state, but there are eleven comities which have sent more. Sherman county has sent but one. CHICAGO STORE!
