A Good Performance.

To all theatre going folks in this city
the announcement that the Annie Fir
min, John Jack Dramatic company will
appear at the Vogt Grand, Thursday,
April 23d, must have been great pleas
ure. John Jack is well known by the
amusement loving public. Numbers
there are in this city who have witnessed
his performance, and all express them
selves as well pleased with him, in fact
he is a uniform favorite, as also is Annie
Firmin. Their attractions secure them
large houses wherever they appear. The
Cincinnati Gazette comedies that John
Jack is the accepted Falstaff of Shakes
perian creation. Remember the date,
the Path inst, at the Vogt Grand. Ad-
rs, so and 25 cents.

An Interestiur Lecture.

DIR. McInturf delivered one of his lee
lures on Japan to moderately filled
house, in the M. E. Church last evening.
The lecture occupied nearly two hours.
1t was delivered in very pleasant con-
versational manner, was full of interes-
ting facts and annecdotes illustrative of
the character and habits of the Japanese
and the 1850 islands that comprise the
Empire OF Japan. The Doctor at once
put himself en-rapport with his audience
by declaring that he had never seen any
thing to equal the climate and scenery
around our little city. After brie fly
describing the topography area, climate
and population of Japan, he went on to
speak of her people, whom he described
as very matter of fact (reminding us
vividly of a Dalles editor and illustrat-
ing by an incident that occurred at a
lecture he once gave to a lot of natives
in which he informed them that one of
the states ofthis country was larger than
Japan, when he was promptly told, not
that he was mistaken, but that he was
liar! The country he described as the
most beautiful and filthy in the world.
The growth of Vegetation is so marvellous
that he once saw beautiful ship with
hull and masts which had been bent in
to shape while the tree was still grow
ing. The summer clothing of the ma
tives is ''air and sunshine, - and nothing
more. The people have earthquakes for
breakfast, dinner and supper, and it is
uncommon for the house in which you
live to rise up in The air and shake it's
elf, as it were, and then quietly settle
down again. 1t rains constantly in
summer, and the damp heavy atmos-
phere is so laden with moisture that a
Jap's ear will (fguratively speaking) get
blue-moulded. As consequence Japan
is a sleepy country and the Japanese are
SO accomplished at the business that the
doctor has seen them sleeping comforta-
BILE in every possible position except
standing heels up. Notwithstanding
this they have only hard angular blocks
of wood for pillows and for such purpose
an oyster can is an occasional luxury.
The people are somewhat skilled in med
icine and the arts, but while remarkable
for their powers of imitation they are
wholly destitute of the inventive faculty
and are physically dirty and socially cor
rupt to a proverb. In the art of living
they could beat Ananias himself. The
doctor exhibited number of Japanese
idols and cllrios and wound up a very
entertaining and instructive lecture by
inviting the audience to come forward
and examine them.

A Fair Young Teacher.

Miss Wait Grubbs, who has been in
this city for the past few weeks, engaged
in drilling the young ladies of the Tab
leaux dart Co., has returned to her
home in Portland. Miss Grubbs has
hosts of friends in The Dalles who will
always give her warm reception when
she comes here, either in private life or
in any capacity in which she can make
use of her many talents. We learn that
the academy at Pendleton has rendered
her an invitation to come there and drill
class of young ladies for the commence
ment exercises in June, which she will
probably accept, and give the same class
OF entertainment which she so success
fully produced here. Miss Grubbs has a
peculiar talent for imparting information
to others and has the further faculty of
lmparting to her students large share
OF her own enthusiasm, and if she
chooses teaching as life work she will
be sure of success.

An Omission.

Our attention has been called by A 4.
g. johnson to an oversight that was
made in our report of the late G. A. R.
proceedings at Astoria The writer not
having been present at the encampment
the omission will be all the more readily
understood when we assure our readers
that it wholly unintentional. We omit
ted to makeany reference to the labors of
one man who more than any other con-
tributes during the past year to place
the affairs of the Oregon department of
the G. A. R. in more successful condi-
tional then they ever were before. One
af the comrades said in the hearing of
the writer, 81 would not do the work
that Assistant Adjutant General Myers
did during the past year to place the g.
A. R. i'll its present admirable condition
for five hundred dollars.'' And yet Mr..
Myers did it as labor of love without
farthing of remuneration and the COM
rades justly think that any report of the
encampment proceedings that would not
recognize this valuable and much es-
teemed service would be essentially de-
fective. And so says the CHRONICLE.

Points.

EDITOR CHRoNICLE IL saw a we'll
dressed man walk down Second street
the other day. When l say well-dressed
I mean well-dressed, not foppishly at
tired. There wasn't the suspicion of a
gilded youth about this man; not sus-
picion. He was a shrewd, sensible fell
low enough, looked like well-to-do bus
mess man. The sort of fellow who
breakfasts at home with his mother and
sisters, lunches down town at modest
restaurant, and never, no never, dimes at
club. The sort of man who PLAYS pro-
gressive whist and likes it. Yet he did
a little thing that showed a most un-
looked-for taste for the pomps and vani-
ties. Only a little thing, but what is
the proverb that says something about
man was walking along peacefully
enough, when a well-known about-town
man strolled by. The about town man
is said to be a most reprehensibIe sort of
person, but he does dress exquisitely
As he passed, the staid business man
looked at him. Then he looked again
He fastened his earnest eyes upon the
hat of the about-town man. He watched
that hat for a whole block. Then he
could stand it no longer; off came his
own hat. He gazed excitedly at the rim.
He said something in a smothered voice.
Something far more forcible than
polite. This is the sense of what he
said:
''Some-thing-or-oth that halter!
He said mine was the latest shaper'
This little episode filled me with an in
satiate desire to find out something about
mems hats.

That is what Mr.. Pease, at Mcfarland
