Farmers say fall grain throughout the county is looking splendid, but spring sown grain, in many places is hardly through the ground.

World-Famo- ua Big; Clrcua to Exhibit Here. 1 Ringling Brothers' popular Worlds' Greatest Shows will exhibit in this city Saturbay, June 10. It is needless to say that this wilt be an amusement eyent of the first impor tance. . Rlngliner Brothers' circus is not only the largest arenic institution in the entire world, but It Is also the most colossal travlelng exhibition ever organized either in ancient or modern times. In ' novelty, in te uniqueness, in the sumptuousness of its displays, in the beauty of its match- less horses, in the number of its high priced performers, in the wealth of its pageantry and in the generosity of everything that goes to make up a superlatively great exhibition, it has no equal on earth. Other shows have endeavored to imitate it, but never with success. It bas an individuality all its own a distinctiveness that gives it a recognized character for originality all over the land. It has repeatedly been said and with truth that Ringling Brothers' have founded a new school of American showmen. but it is a school that has no successful pupils. To announce the coming of this great show is sufficient to insure public attention The pictured pre- - sentmen of the five famous Ringling Brothers upon an advertisement is an absolute guarantee of perfection in arenic amusement. Unlike other circus managers Ringling Brothers are never content to rest upon their laurels. The present season has wit nessed a notable increase in the mag- nitude of the show as well as a most unprecedented gathering of American and old-wor- ld novelties. The three rings, double stages, aerial spaces, and huge fourth-mil- e track are fairly alive with diverting performances, of a character never before seen with any arenic exhibition. The most thrilling of mid-ai- r exploits, the most graceful of lady and gentlemen riders, the most astonishingly expert acrobats, vie in interest with the most sensational and wonder-creatin- g exhibitions of trained animal intelligence. Surely the world has never seen anything to compare with the marvelous Lockbart elephant actors, Marchand's pugilistic proboscidians of Herr Souder's ele phant braas band. Any one of these aewly-importe- d great features would be sufficient to stamp a show with merit and distinotion. Equally re- markable is O'Brien's sixty-on- e borse act over three-scor- e high-bre- d equines all performing in one ring at one time under the direction of a single trainer. A superb menagrie and a most exciting reproduction of the exhilarating sports and racing contests of imperial Rome are impor- tant incidents of the great show, while all the new free street parade which inaugurates circus day is the most gor-gous- ly resplendent gratuitous display ever giyen in any land or age. ' Talk about Reed or Roosevelt for the republican nominee next year is idle. There is but one man who can oe the logical candidate of the republican party in 1900, and that man is William McKinley. For the republicans to dis card him would be to denounce his ad-- mtnlstratiod, and to do this would be to renounce all their principles. Presi dent McKinley has given them a high tariff and a foreign policy to their liking. Therefore they cannot put him aside without denouncing the tenets they have followed. ' McKinley will be the next republican nominee. Vages of laborers in the trust factor ies have been advanced 10 per cent, and the republican press is making a big blow about it. But when investi- gated it amounts to nothing. The trusts have raised the price of their output 100 per cent. By so doing they have doubled the price of nearly every- thing their employes are compelled to buy, and they have given them an ad- vance of 10 per cent. The laborer who worked for two dollars a day has had his wages increased 20 cents, but what he buys, if a trust product, is doubled ia price. How beneficient the bene ficiaries of protection are. States Senator W. A. Peffer, of Kansas, has been quite a of the founders of the populist party, and for a long time has been one of its chief leaders, but he has returned to the republican fold, and says he has "always been a republican except on the money question." If he isn't a pretty fair joker, he has been an awful hypocrite the past ten or twelve years. It is stated that Hon. John J. Lentz will probably be the next democratic nominee for governor of Ohio. If be is nominated he will probably be elected, for he is one of those who never knows defeat, besides he is one of the brainiest men and best cam- paigners in the nation. Parties desiring flowers for the graduating exercises of the public school should place their orders early with Mrs. Tackman, as flowers here are very scarce this season, but if or- ders are in early they can be filled. - mJ7-6- d CONDITION OF CHOPS. i I . Encouraging Beport. Are Bocelved at the Portland Bureau. Following is a synopsis of the report made from the crop-weath- er buraau in Portland, dated May 15: WESTERN OREGON. The reports indicate that injury has been done to the prune crop, especial- ly to the Italian variety. From some sections the reports indicate an abso- lute failure: from others, that a fair crop will mature. The bloom was as full as usual, but when the fruit began to set it also began to fall from the trees. The Italian is the principal varietv of prunes grown, and a short crop in that variety means a shortage in the entire crop. The actual condi- tion cannot be determined for a week or two more. The injury is supposed to have been done by the February freeze, assisted by the cold rains of April and May. The peach crop now promises to be good in the southern counties, but not an average in tne northern counties. Cherries are set ting fairly well; while dropping pre vails, a good crop Is expected. Apri cots and quinces are undoubtedly in jured and a shortage will result. Pears and apples appear to be in about normal condition The grain crop is in good condition; fall and winter sown grain are making slow, but strong, growth. Spring plowing and seeding continue. Much of the low land is yet too wet to plow. Unless adverse conditions prevail during June, the grain crop will be as good as it usually, is, the spring acre- age being greater than in normal years. EASTERN OREGON. The grain crop is in nearly normal condition Stooling continues and a healthy upward growth has com- menced, Barley was injured to some extent by the frost on Friday morning. Spring grain is generally above the ground. The soil is very moist, and unless hot winds prevail about July 1st, the grain crop will be nearly an average. The fruit crop continues in an un certain condition. The fruit bloom was quite full, but fruit dropping sets in after the bloom falls. The reports from Hood river valley indicate that the apple crop will be better than was anticipated. All sections report fruit conditions unsatisfactory. Bloom is commencing in the Grande Ronde valley and over the plateau. The actual fruit prospects cannot be de- termined for several weeks more. A GATHERINU OF YOUNG PEOPLE. The Meeting: of the Christian Endeavor Will Be of Vast Importance. Among the many conventions to be held in Portland this year is one which is attracting the attention of young people in almost every town in the state. The Christian Endeavors of Oregon are looking forward with great eagerness to the state convention, which is to convene in the metropolis May 25th., and continue until the 29th. The committee appointed some time ago to look after the preliminary ar- rangements for the convention, report 'fll things ready" and a general en thusiasm throughout the .state. The program committee has arranged an attractive program, covering the three days of the convention, and promising the delegates some rich treats. It is announced that "Father" F. E. Clark, the founder of the organi- zation, will be presence alone is suf- ficient to insure a large gathering of Endeavors, and the' convention is for- tunate in securing him. Rev. Herbert S. Johnson, of Pittsfield, Mass., will also be present and address the con vention ; President Newlin, of Pacific College,. Newberg; Rev. H. A. Ketch -- um, D. D., of Salem; Prof. P. L. Campbell, of the Normal school, Mon- mouth, and several prominent pastors of Portland will also take an active part. The committee in charge is putting forth every effort to make this the most successful C. E. convention ever held in this state, and judging from the program as already arranged, the talent secured,' and the general en- thusiasm throughout the state, their expectations will be fully realized. Railroad and steamboat lines have been interviewed, and yet y low rates secured from all points. All societies heard from to date express their inten tion of sending large delegations. Delegates will be provided with lodg ing free of charge, and special rates for meals have been secured at hotels and restaurants. SHEARING 8HEEP BV MACHINERY. A Contrivance That Promises to do Away With Band Hhearlnjc A Pendleton dispatch to the Ore-goni- says: .Twenty sheepshearing machines are in operation on the ranch of N. H. Cottrell, on Birch creek, near this place. These machines are removing on the average 2000 fleeces of wool each day, or about 100 to the machine. Power is furnished by the use of a horsepower turned by six horses. This is the first season these machines have ever been operated in this'coun-try- , and sheepmen are inclined to be- lieve that the days of sheep shearing by hand have , passed, and that all sheep in the future will be sheared by machine. . The machines are operated on the Cottrell ranch, jind the bands of sbeep are driven there for shearing. The advantage is not so much in the shearing of a large number of sheep than by the old method, but in the better manner in which the fleece is taken ' off the sheep's back. By the hand-sheari- method, the shearer was apt to cut the fiber and thus in jure tne selling quality ol tne wool. By machine-shearin- g, the fleece comes from the sheep's back in perfect con- dition, and it is claimed that each fleece is worth 5 cent more on the average thao when Rheared by hand. Charles Cunningham, the heaviest grower of sheep in Eastern Oregon, is having his immense bands sheared by the ' machines, and says now that the utility of the new method has been demonstrated, sheepgrowers will re- fuse to allow their sheep sheared by band even though the shearers offer to do the work for notthlng. Mr. Cunningnam was the man who was chiefly instrumental in bringing the machines into this country, and feels satisfied that the innovatian will proye to be permanently beneficial to the sheep interests. G. A. B. Resolutions. At a regular meeting of Jas. W. Nesmltb Post No. 32, Dept. of Oregon G. A. R. the folio wing resolutions were unanimously adopted. Resolved, That the members of this Post do most heartily thank our gov ernor, Hon. T. T. Goer, for his action in. regard to asking for the return of the Oregon e volunteers now in the Philippine islands. The piomineat part taken by the Oregon regiment in the recent battles around Manila en' tirely refutes the idea that these brave young men are not ia the right place. We do not belie-- e for a moment that a single member of that regiment wishes to shirk his duty, or to return home without the honor of having been in at the death" of the insurrection. Resolved, That this resolution be published in the local papers, and a coov sent to Governor Geer. The Dalles Or. May 13th 1899. R. C. Aiken, Sen. Vice Com. J. C. Meins. Adjutant. ANOTHEK BOLD ROBBER. Frank Murphy Relieved of His Pnrse by Highwaymen. Tuesday, near 10:30 p. m., Frank Mur phy, a blacksmitn woo works In tne O. R. &. N. shops, was going to his room at Mrs. Burger's, in the East End, and just as he passed the club rooms a fellow stepped up to him and said a man had just been run oyer by a train and had both legs cut off a short dis- tance up the track. A train had just passed, and Mr. Murphy thought the fellow was telling the truth, so he hastened along, expecting to give a poor sufferer relief, and when he reached some box cars back of Pease & Mays' warehouse, he was confronted by two masked men with big revolvers' and told to throw up his hands. Being caught unawares, there was no other alterative, and his hands went up. While the two men with guns made him stand pat, the one who had in- - ticed Mr. Murphy into the darkness went through his- pockets taking a purse that contained $42.90, also a gold ring worth six or seven dollars. Tbey took his watch, but returned it to him with the remark that they did not think it would be of any value to them. After they had relieved him of his valuables, they told Mr. Murphy to move back down the track the way he came, and as tney empnasizea toeir command with pistols, he obeyed. Owing to the darkness Mr. Murphy was unable to recognize his assailants or to five any description oi tnem more than that-the- y wore masks. It is probable the robbery was done by local talent, as Tuesday was pay day on the O. R & N., and it was generally known that the employes of, the com- pany had received their pay for the past month. Knowing this the robbers probably were laying for any railroad man that might be out after dark. The matter is being investigated by the authorities, though it is not likely the thieves will be intercepted, as there is no means of gaining a clew to their identity. AGAINST OUTSIDE SHEEP. Grant County Sheepmen Have Formed a Pool to Keep Them Out. Sheepmen of this county are great ly interested in the attitude assumed by the sheepmen of Grant county with reference to sheep belonging to out side owners ssys the Pendleton East Oregonlan. There has always been a determined effort to keep ontside sheep from going into that county, and various devices have been resorted to to effect this object. One of the means utilized was the collection of a toll at the bridge across the north fork of the John Day at Monument, and now this toll will be collected with care. But, this is not the most effective moye looking toward the exclusion of outside sheep, for the sheepmen of Grant county have quietly been get ting hold of a large quantity of land situated so as to enable them to prevent the driving of sheep across the country feeding as they go, and by the securing of these lands It has become necessary for the outside sheepmen to drive the bands along the publio highway for a long distance. This makes it not only . inconveinent to driye sheep into the high mountains of that country, where they have al ways been ranged in the summer, but it becomes almost impossible to take them in without any range as tbey go. Grant county sheep men are said to have secured contr ol of an immense quantity of the lanub in question, and in some localities absolutely control the mean of ingress and egress from this county and Morrow county. It is claimed tbat"laods have been acquired by entry, purchase and lease located so as to control the roads and trails leading Into Grant county over the Deer Creek and Round Basin country, and that to far as possible, the means of ingress from thie side over the north fork of John Day at Dale having been monopolized by the Grant county sheep men. MORE HIGHWAY ROBBERY. Bert Lynch .Believed of His Parse by ThOKS. Another highway robbery occurred on our streets; Wednesday night, this time on the principal business street, and only a short time after stores had been closed. The boldness of the robbery indicates that there is a gang of thieves in town who are des- perate, and if they are not cleaned out, nobody will be safe traveling the streets after dark. After closing his father's barber shop about 9 o'clock Bert Lynch walked down to the soda factory in the East End, and hot finding any- body there started When he reached the agricultural implement shed of J. T. Peters & Co. op the south side of Second street, two masked men, one with a pistol in his hand, ordered him to stop, and wblle one stood in front of him with a gun the other step- ped behind him and went through his pockets, taking out $7.70, all the mon ey he bad . They then ordered him to move down the street as rapidly as he could, and he obeyed orders. Mr. Lynch saw is little of them that he could not giye a description of the robbers that would lead to their de tection. To Whom It May Concern. Having given up the agency for the sale of the McCormack reaper and mowers, at The Dalles, in fayor of J. T. Peters & Co., I cheerfully recom- mend them as being well qualified to take care of the requirements of the trade. In future, will be pleased to receive an occasional call at Moro, Ore., from any of our old friends who may be in that neighborhood. ml3-2- m J. M. Ftlloon. . Iror Over Fifty Years.

This Pleasing Drama Was Well Presented by Local Talent. Again the people of The Dalles have been placed under obligations to a number of ladles and gentlemen of the city for a most delightful evening's entertaiument, the rendition of "A Summer's Fancy," at the Vogt opera house Wednesday night. The play is a pleasing one, beginning with a camp scene, where a party of cultured people from New York are spending their summer vacation. Near the romantic spot is the home of a plain, blunt farmer, Jethro Baxter, who bas a charming little daughter. Mercy, with whom one of the pleasure seekers fails desperately in love. The romantic youth is Jack Henderson, whose mother disapproves of her son's fancy, yet despite maternal protesta tions the youth marries the maiden, tnougn sne is illiterate, ana nas no conception of the world, being entirely wrapped up in her love for Jack. There is a marriage and life in a cot tage, with the love all on the side of the innocent young wife, a quarrel, the wife flees to a seminary where she acquaints herself with the require ments of society, and finally wins back the affections of her bad tempered husband. In the cast Mr. Levin took the part of Jack Henderson, and right well did be personate tbe character of tne pas sionate lover and crabbed husband, who by his ill temper drives his wife away from him. "Miss Rose Michell person' a ted Mercy most charmingly. She was perfectly as home in the role of the innocent and trusting girl and wife, and did some splendid acting when she fled with ber father, Jethro Bax ter, personated by Harry Lonsdale, from the home of her tryanical hus band, and again appeared as a most charming society woman after four years in Professor Potts' seminary. And as a father whose idol was the girl Mercy, Mr. Lonsdale was perfect ly at home, so much so that many in the audience remarked that Harry in' stead of leading a life of single blessed' ness should be the indulgent father of some charming young girl. Mr?. Ed' don, as Emma Watson, a single lady of uncertain age, was perfect and her makeup was admirable, while Will Frank representing Prof. Potts, very much in love with Emma, was fully her equal both in acting and makeup, Miss Myrtle Micholl was perfectly at home in the character of Edith Hen' derson. a daughter of wealth and cul- ture, whom Harry Woodthrope, per sonated by Ernest Lueddaman, adored. Mr. Lueddaman made a most enthusi astic suitor, finally winning the hand of Edith. In the role of Mrs. Baxter, a dignified matron, with three way' ward children, Mrs. G. C. Blakeley appeared to an excellent advantage. The-dua- l characters of Walley Hen derson, a vivacious school boy, and Jake Baxtor, a boy raised on a farm, was admirably taken by Will Crossen who threw his entire soul into the play, displaying prominent features of a trained actor. The entertainment throughout was most pleasing, the acting being much better than is often done by profes sionals, and the music between acts supplied by Messrs. .Blrgfeld and Ben-tona- nd Miss Alma Schmidt helped to make the evening pass so pleasantly that few realized time was flitting so rapidly until the curtain fell for the last, time, and it was noted that the play Lad lasted over two hours. PORTLAND HAS A MAYOR. Story Caught the Opposition Mapping and Slid In. Hon W. A. Story, president of the common council of Portland, was elected mayor Tuesday evening, thus breaking the dead-loc- k that has been on ever since the death of Mayor Ma son. A meeting of the council was held Tuesday afternoon, attended by all tbe councilmen, and an adjournment was taken to 7 o'clock. At that hour the ''solid six" were all in their seats but one of the "solid five" Martin, under stood the meeting was called for 7:30 and failed to put in an apperance. Mr. Story readily saw his advantage, cal led Councilman Baker to the chair, and quietly disappeared, thus leaving only nine councilmen present. This being a quorum and five being a ma- jority, a ballot for mayor was at once taken. Five votes were counted for W. A. Story and four for H. S. Rowe, watch gave the election to the former. Then there were lour very angry councilmen, and they adjourned to go in search of their truant confederate. Mr. Story was elected to the coun1 ell of Portland last June, and upon the organization of that body he was chosen president. Since the death of Mayor Mason he has been acting mayor, and! his administration has been generally approved. Notice To Contractors.

L, writes to his father from Manila under date of April 13th, giving an account of the part the Second Oregon took in tbe light at Malaban on March 25th that shows tbe Oregon boys to have suffered severely, for they were in the hottest of the fight. Mr. Ballard says: "The Oregon .regiment had the worst place on the field, and Co. L the hardest place in the line. We were on the extreme left, down where we were fired on from three sides at once. Three of our company were killed on the field and 11 wound ed inside of two hours, and one man, Rubart, died on the operating table in the hospital, making our loss four killed and 10 wounded. Altogether the regimentlost 68 killed aud wound- ed in the battle. Our regiment fought as far as Polo, about 5 miles up the bay, where we were held several days." Mr. Ballard then gives an account of a lively little skirmish as follows: "On April 10th our first lieutenant asked tor volunteers to go out with a scouting party of 14 men. He led us toward the mouutains east of here.and when we got out some nine miles we were surrounded on three sides just after we had crossed a small stream on a rait that could only carry two sol- diers. The natives began firing on us and we had to retreat. We made a running fight all tbe way back to camp, and got in at 5 p. m. J was sent out on post guard at 5:J0, and at SidO next morning the natives got through our outposts and attacked our camp. I was cut off from tbe camp, but made a good run and got in safe. Several bullets hit pretty close to me, .but I was lucky enough not to get hit. We fought them for an hour and a half and drove them away. Our company did not lose a man, but Co. M had three men killed and one wounaea in tne skirmish." NORRIS BROS.' BIG SHOW. This Year it Larger and Better Than Ever Before. Norris Bros' big trained animal show will exhibit in The Dalles, Wed nesday, May 24, under their large water-proo- f tents. Two performances will be given at 3 and 8 p. m. A spec tacular street carnival and parade will be given at 11 a. m.. The show is twice larger than ever before, and many new features have been added, prominent among them being Fargo, the smallest trained elephant in the world, and Ajax, the only trained African zebra in existence. So fa miliar has the public become with the fact that each year sees enormous new augmentations, magnificent improve' ments and the addition of newly originated features, that the return- - of the Norris Bros.' show always means that something new and different is to be presented. Professor Norris will drive Ajax the . trained zebra, in the street parade. Heretofore the zebra has been considered untrainable, but Norris has proven this to be erroneous. The animal fire department, in which dogs and monkeys act as firemen, and tbe McGinty family, will be well and favorably remembered by all who see the show. Now it is Soap, Chicago, May 18. A special to the Chronicle from St. Louis says: The leading soap manufacturers of New York, Chicago, Cincinnati, Kansas City and Nashville are organizing a gigantio combine. Plans were prac- tically completed at recent meetings held in St. Louis and Chicago and will be finally clinched at a session to be held in Cincinnati next week. It is said that the new combination will have a capitalization of $50,000,000 one half of which will be 6 per cent pre ferred, and the balance common stock. It will be incorporated under the laws of New Jersey. Prominent Politician Arrested. Tacoma, May 18.

WORLD'S GREATEST SHOWS.

Ringling Bros.' World-Famo- ua Big; Clrcuato Exhibit Here. 1

Ringling Brothers' popular Worlds'Greatest Shows will exhibit in thiscity Saturbay, June 10.

It is needless to say that this wilt bean amusement eyent of the first importance. . Rlngliner Brothers' circus isnot only the largest arenic institutionin the entire world, but It Is also themost colossal travlelng exhibition everorganized either in ancient or moderntimes. In ' novelty, in te

uniqueness, in the sumptuousness ofits displays, in the beauty of its match-less horses, in the number of its highpriced performers, in the wealth of itspageantry and in the generosity ofeverything that goes to make up asuperlatively great exhibition, it hasno equal on earth. Other shows haveendeavored to imitate it, but neverwith success. It bas an individualityall its own a distinctiveness thatgives it a recognized character fororiginality all over the land. It hasrepeatedly been said and with truththat Ringling Brothers' have foundeda new school of American showmen.but it is a school that has no successfulpupils. To announce the coming ofthis great show is sufficient to insurepublic attention The pictured pre- -sentmen of the five famous RinglingBrothers upon an advertisement is anabsolute guarantee of perfection inarenic amusement. Unlike othercircus managers Ringling Brothersare never content to rest upon theirlaurels. The present season has witnessed a notable increase in the mag-nitude of the show as well as a mostunprecedented gathering of Americanand old-wor- ld novelties. The threerings, double stages, aerial spaces, andhuge fourth-mil- e track are fairly alivewith diverting performances, of acharacter never before seen with anyarenic exhibition. The most thrillingof mid-ai- r exploits, the most gracefulof lady and gentlemen riders, the mostastonishingly expert acrobats, vie ininterest with the most sensationaland wonder-creatin- g exhibitions oftrained animal intelligence. Surelythe world has never seen anything tocompare with the marvelous Lockbartelephant actors, Marchand's pugilisticproboscidians of Herr Souder's elephant braas band. Any one of theseaewly-importe- d great features wouldbe sufficient to stamp a show withmerit and distinotion. Equally re-

markable is O'Brien's sixty-on- e borseact over three-scor- e high-bre- d

equines all performing in one ring atone time under the direction of asingle trainer. A superb menagrieand a most exciting reproduction ofthe exhilarating sports and racingcontests of imperial Rome are impor-tant incidents of the great show, whileall the new free street parade whichinaugurates circus day is the most gor-gous- ly

resplendent gratuitous displayever giyen in any land or age. '

Talk about Reed or Roosevelt for therepublican nominee next year is idle.There is but one man who can oe thelogical candidate of the republicanparty in 1900, and that man is WilliamMcKinley. For the republicans to discard him would be to denounce his ad--

mtnlstratiod, and to do this would beto renounce all their principles. President McKinley has given them a hightariff and a foreign policy to theirliking. Therefore they cannot put himaside without denouncing the tenetsthey have followed. ' McKinley will bethe next republican nominee.

Vages of laborers in the trust factories have been advanced 10 per cent,and the republican press is making abig blow about it. But when investi-gated it amounts to nothing. Thetrusts have raised the price of theiroutput 100 per cent. By so doing theyhave doubled the price of nearly every-thing their employes are compelled tobuy, and they have given them an ad-

vance of 10 per cent. The laborer whoworked for two dollars a day has hadhis wages increased 20 cents, but whathe buys, if a trust product, is doubledia price. How beneficient the beneficiaries of protection are.

States Senator W. A.Peffer, of Kansas, has been quite a

of the founders of the populist party,and for a long time has been one of itschief leaders, but he has returned tothe republican fold, and says he has"always been a republican except onthe money question." If he isn't apretty fair joker, he has been an awfulhypocrite the past ten or twelve years.

It is stated that Hon. John J. Lentzwill probably be the next democraticnominee for governor of Ohio. If beis nominated he will probably beelected, for he is one of those whonever knows defeat, besides he is oneof the brainiest men and best cam-

paigners in the nation.

Parties desiring flowers for thegraduating exercises of the publicschool should place their orders earlywith Mrs. Tackman, as flowers hereare very scarce this season, but if or-

ders are in early they can be filled. -mJ7-6- d

CONDITION OF CHOPS.iI . Encouraging Beport. Are

Bocelved at the Portland Bureau.Following is a synopsis of the report

made from the crop-weath- er buraau inPortland, dated May 15:

WESTERN OREGON.

The reports indicate that injury hasbeen done to the prune crop, especial-ly to the Italian variety. From somesections the reports indicate an abso-

lute failure: from others, that a faircrop will mature. The bloom was asfull as usual, but when the fruit beganto set it also began to fall from thetrees. The Italian is the principalvarietv of prunes grown, and a shortcrop in that variety means a shortagein the entire crop. The actual condi-

tion cannot be determined for a weekor two more. The injury is supposedto have been done by the Februaryfreeze, assisted by the cold rains ofApril and May. The peach crop nowpromises to be good in the southerncounties, but not an average in tnenorthern counties. Cherries are setting fairly well; while dropping prevails, a good crop Is expected. Apricots and quinces are undoubtedly injured and a shortage will result.Pears and apples appear to be in aboutnormal condition

The grain crop is in good condition;fall and winter sown grain are makingslow, but strong, growth. Springplowing and seeding continue. Muchof the low land is yet too wet to plow.Unless adverse conditions prevailduring June, the grain crop will be asgood as it usually, is, the spring acre-age being greater than in normalyears.

EASTERN OREGON.

The grain crop is in nearly normalcondition Stooling continues and ahealthy upward growth has com-

menced, Barley was injured to someextent by the frost on Friday morning.Spring grain is generally above theground. The soil is very moist, andunless hot winds prevail about July1st, the grain crop will be nearly anaverage.

The fruit crop continues in an uncertain condition. The fruit bloomwas quite full, but fruit dropping setsin after the bloom falls. The reportsfrom Hood river valley indicate thatthe apple crop will be better than wasanticipated. All sections report fruitconditions unsatisfactory. Bloom iscommencing in the Grande Rondevalley and over the plateau. Theactual fruit prospects cannot be de-

termined for several weeks more.

A GATHERINU OF YOUNG PEOPLE.

The Meeting: of the Christian EndeavorWill Be of Vast Importance.

SHEARING 8HEEP BV MACHINERY.

A Contrivance That Promises to do AwayWith Band Hhearlnjc

A Pendleton dispatch to the Ore-goni-

says:.Twenty sheepshearing machines are

in operation on the ranch of N. H.Cottrell, on Birch creek, near thisplace. These machines are removingon the average 2000 fleeces of wool eachday, or about 100 to the machine.Power is furnished by the use of ahorsepower turned by six horses. Thisis the first season these machineshave ever been operated in this'coun-try- ,

and sheepmen are inclined to be-

lieve that the days of sheep shearingby hand have , passed, and that allsheep in the future will be sheared bymachine. . The machines are operatedon the Cottrell ranch, jind the bandsof sbeep are driven there for shearing.The advantage is not so much in theshearing of a large number of sheepthan by the old method, but in thebetter manner in which the fleece istaken ' off the sheep's back. By thehand-sheari- method, the shearerwas apt to cut the fiber and thus injure tne selling quality ol tne wool.By machine-shearin- g, the fleece comesfrom the sheep's back in perfect con-

dition, and it is claimed that eachfleece is worth 5 cent more on theaverage thao when Rheared by hand.

Charles Cunningham, the heaviestgrower of sheep in Eastern Oregon, ishaving his immense bands sheared bythe ' machines, and says now that theutility of the new method has beendemonstrated, sheepgrowers will re-

fuse to allow their sheep sheared byband even though the shearers offerto do the work for notthlng. Mr.Cunningnam was the man who waschiefly instrumental in bringing themachines into this country, and feelssatisfied that the innovatian willproye to be permanently beneficial tothe sheep interests.

G. A. B. Resolutions.

At a regular meeting of Jas. W.Nesmltb Post No. 32, Dept. of OregonG. A. R. the folio wing resolutions wereunanimously adopted.

Resolved, That the members of thisPost do most heartily thank our governor, Hon. T. T. Goer, for his actionin. regard to asking for the return ofthe Oregon e volunteers now in thePhilippine islands. The piomineat

part taken by the Oregon regiment inthe recent battles around Manila en'tirely refutes the idea that these braveyoung men are not ia the right place.We do not belie--e for a moment that asingle member of that regiment wishesto shirk his duty, or to return homewithout the honor of having been inat the death" of the insurrection.

Resolved, That this resolution bepublished in the local papers, and acoov sent to Governor Geer. TheDalles Or. May 13th 1899.

ANOTHEK BOLD ROBBER.

Frank Murphy Relieved of His Pnrse byHighwaymen.

Tuesday, near 10:30 p. m., Frank Murphy, a blacksmitn woo works In tneO. R. &. N. shops, was going to hisroom at Mrs. Burger's, in the East End,and just as he passed the club rooms afellow stepped up to him and said aman had just been run oyer by a trainand had both legs cut off a short dis-

tance up the track. A train had justpassed, and Mr. Murphy thought thefellow was telling the truth, so hehastened along, expecting to give apoor sufferer relief, and when hereached some box cars back of Pease& Mays' warehouse, he was confrontedby two masked men with big revolvers'and told to throw up his hands. Beingcaught unawares, there was no otheralterative, and his hands went up.While the two men with guns madehim stand pat, the one who had in- -ticed Mr. Murphy into the darknesswent through his- pockets taking apurse that contained $42.90, also a goldring worth six or seven dollars. Tbeytook his watch, but returned it to himwith the remark that they did notthink it would be of any value to them.After they had relieved him of hisvaluables, they told Mr. Murphy tomove back down the track the way hecame, and as tney empnasizea toeircommand with pistols, he obeyed.

Owing to the darkness Mr. Murphywas unable to recognize his assailantsor to five any description oi tnemmore than that-the- y wore masks. Itis probable the robbery was done bylocal talent, as Tuesday was pay dayon the O. R & N., and it was generallyknown that the employes of, the com-

pany had received their pay for thepast month. Knowing this the robbersprobably were laying for any railroadman that might be out after dark.The matter is being investigated bythe authorities, though it is not likelythe thieves will be intercepted, asthere is no means of gaining a clew totheir identity.

AGAINST OUTSIDE SHEEP.

Grant County Sheepmen Have Formed aPool to Keep Them Out.

Sheepmen of this county are greatly interested in the attitude assumedby the sheepmen of Grant county withreference to sheep belonging to outside owners ssys the Pendleton EastOregonlan. There has always been adetermined effort to keep ontsidesheep from going into that county, andvarious devices have been resorted toto effect this object. One of the meansutilized was the collection of a toll atthe bridge across the north fork of theJohn Day at Monument, and now thistoll will be collected with care.

But, this is not the most effectivemoye looking toward the exclusion ofoutside sheep, for the sheepmen ofGrant county have quietly been getting hold of a large quantity of landsituated so as to enable them toprevent the driving of sheep across thecountry feeding as they go, and by thesecuring of these lands It has becomenecessary for the outside sheepmento drive the bands along the publiohighway for a long distance. Thismakes it not only . inconveinent todriye sheep into the high mountainsof that country, where they have always been ranged in the summer, butit becomes almost impossible to takethem in without any range as tbey go.

Grant county sheep men are said tohave secured contr ol of an immensequantity of the lanub in question, andin some localities absolutely controlthe mean of ingress and egress fromthis county and Morrow county.

It is claimed tbat"laods have beenacquired by entry, purchase and leaselocated so as to control the roads andtrails leading Into Grant county overthe Deer Creek and Round Basincountry, and that to far as possible,the means of ingress from thie sideover the north fork of John Day atDale having been monopolized by theGrant county sheep men.

MORE HIGHWAY ROBBERY.

Bert Lynch .Believed of His Parse byThOKS.

Another highway robbery occurredon our streets; Wednesday night,this time on the principal businessstreet, and only a short time afterstores had been closed. The boldnessof the robbery indicates that there isa gang of thieves in town who are des-

perate, and if they are not cleaned out,nobody will be safe traveling thestreets after dark.

After closing his father's barbershop about 9 o'clock Bert Lynchwalked down to the soda factory inthe East End, and hot finding any-

body there started Whenhe reached the agricultural implementshed of J. T. Peters & Co. op the southside of Second street, two masked men,one with a pistol in his hand, orderedhim to stop, and wblle one stood infront of him with a gun the other step-ped behind him and went through hispockets, taking out $7.70, all the money he bad . They then ordered him tomove down the street as rapidly as hecould, and he obeyed orders. Mr.Lynch saw is little of them that hecould not giye a description of therobbers that would lead to their detection.

To Whom It May Concern.Having given up the agency for the

sale of the McCormack reaper andmowers, at The Dalles, in fayor of J.T. Peters & Co., I cheerfully recom-mend them as being well qualified totake care of the requirements of thetrade.

In future, will be pleased to receivean occasional call at Moro, Ore., fromany of our old friends who may be inthat neighborhood.

A SUMMER'S FANCY."

This Pleasing Drama Was Well Presentedby Local Talent.

Again the people of The Dalles havebeen placed under obligations to anumber of ladles and gentlemen of thecity for a most delightful evening'sentertaiument, the rendition of "ASummer's Fancy," at the Vogt operahouse Wednesday night.

The play is a pleasing one, beginningwith a camp scene, where a party ofcultured people from New York arespending their summer vacation. Nearthe romantic spot is the home of aplain, blunt farmer, Jethro Baxter,who bas a charming little daughter.Mercy, with whom one of the pleasureseekers fails desperately in love. Theromantic youth is Jack Henderson,whose mother disapproves of her son'sfancy, yet despite maternal protestations the youth marries the maiden,tnougn sne is illiterate, ana nas noconception of the world, being entirelywrapped up in her love for Jack.There is a marriage and life in a cottage, with the love all on the side ofthe innocent young wife, a quarrel, thewife flees to a seminary where sheacquaints herself with the requirements of society, and finally winsback the affections of her bad temperedhusband.

In the cast Mr. Levin took the partof Jack Henderson, and right well didbe personate tbe character of tne passionate lover and crabbed husband, whoby his ill temper drives his wife awayfrom him. "Miss Rose Michell person'a ted Mercy most charmingly. She wasperfectly as home in the role of theinnocent and trusting girl and wife,and did some splendid acting whenshe fled with ber father, Jethro Baxter, personated by Harry Lonsdale,from the home of her tryanical husband, and again appeared as a mostcharming society woman after fouryears in Professor Potts' seminary.And as a father whose idol was thegirl Mercy, Mr. Lonsdale was perfectly at home, so much so that many inthe audience remarked that Harry in'stead of leading a life of single blessed'ness should be the indulgent father ofsome charming young girl. Mr?. Ed'don, as Emma Watson, a single ladyof uncertain age, was perfect and hermakeup was admirable, while WillFrank representing Prof. Potts, verymuch in love with Emma, was fullyher equal both in acting and makeup,Miss Myrtle Micholl was perfectly athome in the character of Edith Hen'derson. a daughter of wealth and cul-

ture, whom Harry Woodthrope, personated by Ernest Lueddaman, adored.Mr. Lueddaman made a most enthusiastic suitor, finally winning the handof Edith. In the role of Mrs. Baxter,a dignified matron, with three way'ward children, Mrs. G. C. Blakeleyappeared to an excellent advantage.The-dua- l characters of Walley Henderson, a vivacious school boy, andJake Baxtor, a boy raised on a farm,was admirably taken by Will Crossenwho threw his entire soul into the play,displaying prominent features of atrained actor.

The entertainment throughout wasmost pleasing, the acting being muchbetter than is often done by professionals, and the music between actssupplied by Messrs. .Blrgfeld and Ben-tona- nd

Miss Alma Schmidt helped tomake the evening pass so pleasantlythat few realized time was flitting sorapidly until the curtain fell for thelast, time, and it was noted that theplay Lad lasted over two hours.

PORTLAND HAS A MAYOR.

Story Caught the Opposition Mapping andSlid In.

Hon W. A. Story, president of thecommon council of Portland, waselected mayor Tuesday evening, thusbreaking the dead-loc- k that has beenon ever since the death of Mayor Mason.

A meeting of the council was heldTuesday afternoon, attended by all tbecouncilmen, and an adjournment wastaken to 7 o'clock. At that hour the''solid six" were all in their seats butone of the "solid five" Martin, understood the meeting was called for 7:30and failed to put in an apperance. Mr.Story readily saw his advantage, called Councilman Baker to the chair,and quietly disappeared, thus leavingonly nine councilmen present. Thisbeing a quorum and five being a ma-

jority, a ballot for mayor was at oncetaken. Five votes were counted forW. A. Story and four for H. S. Rowe,watch gave the election to the former.Then there were lour very angrycouncilmen, and they adjourned to goin search of their truant confederate.

Mr. Story was elected to the coun1ell of Portland last June, and upon theorganization of that body he waschosen president. Since the death ofMayor Mason he has been actingmayor, and! his administration hasbeen generally approved.

Oregonlans are Fighters.Roy Ballard, corporal in Co. L,

writes to his father from Manila underdate of April 13th, giving an accountof the part the Second Oregon took intbe light at Malaban on March 25ththat shows tbe Oregon boys to havesuffered severely, for they were in thehottest of the fight. Mr. Ballard says:

"The Oregon .regiment had theworst place on the field, and Co. Lthe hardest place in the line. Wewere on the extreme left, downwhere we were fired on from threesides at once. Three of our companywere killed on the field and 11 wounded inside of two hours, and one man,

Rubart, died on the operating table inthe hospital, making our loss fourkilled and 10 wounded. Altogetherthe regimentlost 68 killed aud wound-ed in the battle. Our regiment foughtas far as Polo, about 5 miles up thebay, where we were held several days."

Mr. Ballard then gives an accountof a lively little skirmish as follows:

"On April 10th our first lieutenantasked tor volunteers to go out with ascouting party of 14 men. He led ustoward the mouutains east of here.andwhen we got out some nine miles wewere surrounded on three sides justafter we had crossed a small stream ona rait that could only carry two sol-

diers. The natives began firing on usand we had to retreat. We made arunning fight all tbe way back tocamp, and got in at 5 p. m. J was sentout on post guard at 5:J0, and at SidO

next morning the natives got throughour outposts and attacked our camp.I was cut off from tbe camp, but madea good run and got in safe. Severalbullets hit pretty close to me, .but Iwas lucky enough not to get hit. Wefought them for an hour and a half anddrove them away. Our company didnot lose a man, but Co. M had threemen killed and one wounaea in tneskirmish."
