The prompt action of VIM. Vedder,
Daniel Mckenzie and Hunt & Buckley
in getting lumber on the ground for
new creamery, and the assis lance, fnan-
cial and otherwise, rendered Mr.. Wallace
by the citizens of Pullman in the hour
of need, is indeed commendable and is
thoroughly appreciated by Mr.. Wallace.
The farmers and merchants Of eastern
Oregon aud Washington and of western
Idaho should not fail to appreciate that
the advent Of the Pacific Coast Co., a
concern strong financially and with
complete equipments for the easy hand
ling and safe storage of grain, marks an
era in the history of our grain industry;
nor should they fail to avail themselves
of the advantages offered by this line
of elevators.
-Oaksdale Sun: 1t is our opinion
that an artesian well can be had in any
valley in Whitman county. Pullman
and Pennington each have one, Colfax
will be next on the list. Why not
Oaksdale, too? Peter Arrasmith says
he will drill one at a reasonable rate, or
buy lot, sink one on his own response
bility, and let us use the water at fair
figure: both good propositions, why not
accept one of them?
The first performance of Sells Bros
enormous circus was given last evening,
and the huge tent was packed to suffo-
cation The entertainment is the finest
and most complete show of its kind
ever seen in this city. The animal de-
partment has been filed with wild beasts
of every description that can be success
fully handled by travelling show, and
is at the same time most attractive
and instructive feature Of the circus.-S.

RAIN.-During the last two weeks
some believed that this year would prove
an exception in tie falotsssee country, and
that its reputation of never having a
crop failure would be injured. Had the
weather continued as it has been lately,
no doubt the yield would have been
much below the average, however, the
rain came on Wednesday night and
thoroughly soaked the ground, thus
adding at least 100000 to the farmers
of this vicinity, and maintaining the
reputation of the Palouse country for
large crops and no failures.
A NARROW EsCAPE.-Last Saturday
about noon the residence of L. L. Mum
roe had narrow escape from fire. A
spark from the engine of the well borer
was blown through window in the sec
ond story, which is unfinished, and was
drawn, by the current of air, down be-
tween the studding. Mrs. Munroe smell
ed the wood burning, but could not To-
cate the fire until she saw the smoke is
suing from the top of the door. She at
once called to the men at the engine,
whe were able to extinguish the fire before
any damage was done. A few minutes
longer and the flames would have had
possession of the house.
HYMENEAL.-Mr. George W. Hill, who
lives near Evansville, left his home last
week accompanied by G. W. Hunter and
wife, for Dayton, W. T., and since arriv-
ing there he writes his brother, J. NJ.
Hill, of this place, that he was married
on last Tuesday to Miss Belle Davidson
at her mothers home near Dayton. The
marriage ceremony was pronounced by
Rev. Nolds, of the Presbyterian denom-
nation, at o'clock p. m. On Wednes-
day the happy couple were given din
ner by Hon. John Berry, of the latter
place. The bride and groom are well
and favorably known in and about Pull
man, and their many friends will be
pleased to learn Ct the happy union of
so estimable young couple.
