Hang out the Sign.

The DALLEs, Or, March oath, 1891.
EDITOR DALLEs CHRONICLE Some
four or five weeks passed the CHRONICLE
contained an article on the free reading
room, which we were much pleased to
see, as the institution deserves much
more advertising than it gets. The OBJ
ject of the writer is to call the attention
of those who have it in charge, to the
fact that for many weeks the sign which
formerly pointed the stranger to this
home-like and sequestered nook has
been missing, and as a consequence
many strangers who stop for day or
two go away without the knowledge that
We have a free reading room in our city.
In proof of this / recall two examples
which occurred to me personally within
the past two weeks. A gentleman who
keep feed barn expressed surprise
when 1 informed him that there was a
free reading room in the city. Said if
he had known it, that very evening he
could and would have directed two
young men to it who enquired of him
where to go to spend an evening pleas
antly, and but yesterday young man
came to me from the east, mere boy
of twenty, fresh from the home of his
youth, he had been lettering through
town for two days, when 1 asked him
why he did not spend his time in the
reading room, he said he would have
been glad of the privilege had he
known there was one, does it not look a
little like lighting a candle and putting
it under bushel? Who knows but for
that lacking sign this boy has entered
his first saloon, has taken his first step
on the down grade, has been switched
off on the side track that leads to ruin.

Cleaning co,or.d woolens.

Four ounces of white CASTLE soap, four
ounces of ammonia, two ounces of alco-
hol and two ounces of glycerine. Shave
the soap in one quart of water over the
fire. When dissolved add four quarts
of rain water, and when nearly cold the
other ingredients. Bottle and keep in a
cool place. One cap of this mixture in
two quarts of water will be sufficient for
ordinary use. Now lay the goods on an
old sheet, and iron rapidly and lightly
on the wrong side, and then roll tightly
on curtain pole or any round piece OF
wood If this is carefully done you dc
away with the creases made by folding.
For black silk or cloth dissolve one table
spoonful of borax and one Tablespoonful
of indigo in one pint of warm water.
Sponge the pieces well and lay smoothly
one above the other, and, if possible, put
in the sun to dry.-Ladies Home Jour
nal.

Cigar Ashes Good for Hsartsu-n.

A gentleman, who is a very heavy
smoker, did a pecrliar thing in my
presence the other day. He knocked off
a portion of the white ash at the end of
his weed into his hand and without
more ado swallowed it. l naturally
asked the reason for this remarkable
performance, and, to my surprise, learned
that it is a sure cure for the heartburn
which sometimes overtakes the devotees
of tobacco. Not being afflicted in that
way, did not care to try the remedy,
but hasten to communicate it to my
fellow smokers. My informant was at
one time engaged in the cigar importing
business, and was accustomed to test
cigars by the score. He informs me
that he learned the curious fact in Ques
ton in Cuba, where the remedy is
habitually used by the Dons, who breathe
as much tobacco smoke as they do air

AN EPITApH.

Lament in rhyme lament in prose,
WI salt tears trickling down your nose,
Our Johnnie's fate is at a close,
He's lost his breath,
The last sad capstane O'his woes
He's "starved" to death.
He loved the broad Columbia's sweep,
The council thought the ''mill pond cheap
And better water,
So John was left to mourn and weep
His waiful clatter.
His Cornish blood rose high aboon,
The thoughts of drinking from "hume,'
The CHRONICLE attacked him soon,
And though he's skilled in
The art of dodging Irish shoon
The bully" killed him.

THE NAy1eAr1oN LEASE.
Local Opinions on the Surrender of the
Lease.

Local Opinions on the Surrender of the
Lease.
d. p. Thompson arrived home yester-
day afternoon from a trip to Eastern
Oregon, where he had been on business
connected with his banking interests.
Mr.. Thompson had read of the rumored
repudiation OF the Oregon Railway &
Navigation lease by the Union Pacific.
To an OregOiaiGn reporter Mr.. Thompson
said:
am in position to know of any such
proposed movement. 1 have heen a di-
rector in the company for a number of
years, and would be very likely to be
consulted, or at least informed as to such
an important step. I am positive that
the Union Pacific people do not intend
to release their hold on the Short Line.
1t IS valuable piece of property for
them, inasmuch as it is the only Pacific
coast outlet that they could secure with
out great cost.
RAILWAY MANS VIEWS.
A prominent railway official, speaking
on the same subject, said:
People generally have but little idea
as to what is the meaning or what would
be the result of the Union Pacific throw
ing up the lease of the 0. r. & \. To
one not informed on the subject it would
appear G1dl Tile Ouly TcSulI VI SUCH dC-
ton would be that the o. 4. &. n. would
just take hold and run their own bust
ness as they used to, and that by SO do
ing we would have happy delivery
from the Union Pacific and Jay Gould.
Nothing can be wider from the facts in
the case than such an idea. The Union
Pacific bought the 0. K. q N. business
before taking a lease of it, o-arather sec
ured controlling interest p it, which
amounts to the same thing. 1t seems
strange that the Union Pacific should
want to throw up the lease of its own
property, guaranteed TO pay 6 per cent,
but you see there are the holders of the
minority of the stock drawing their per
cent. dividends. If the lease is abroga-
ted the per cent. will be done away
with, and it will be queer if Jay Gould
cannot manage to huggermugger the
whole business up, so that the minority
stockholders will have nothing left and
] he will have the whole.

David Beers paid visit to Sherman
county last week, bringing their shot
guns along in case of an emergency. On
Monday and Tuesday mornings they
spent about three hours each morning
after the geese that come out from the
Columbia to feed on the young fall sown
grain. The result of the six hours
shooting was fifty five big fat "hounker'
geese. They made full express wagon
load from the depot to the store of Joles

five cents piece.

While in the office of the enter
prising Real Estate Agents, Daven-
port & MaIlorie, MIR. MaIlorie called
our attention to a sample of IsaoIin or
potter's clay, taken from deposit in
North Carolina in which he is inter
ested in conjunction with Mr.. B. w.
Todd of Knoxville, Tenn. The clay
is as white as snow and perfectly
free from impurities. This clay from
an adjoining deposit is now being
shipped in large quantities to Wheel
ing, w. Va, Trenton, N j., and
East Liverpool, o., and enters into
the composition of the finest table
ware now manufactured in the United
States, aud has largely taken the
place of the imported English kaoIin
known as ball clay" When asked
what he intended to do with his new
possession, Mr.. N1allorie said g We
wish to form a company to manufac-
ture itinto china. We could make pot
terry right here in competition with
any of the eastern potteries, and con-
troll a great deal of Southern trade.
as there is no pottery in the South.
We would also have the advantage of
being near the raw material. IT
would take about So, 900 to start a
four kiln plant employing about one
hundred hands. nearly all skilled.
Thus of course receive high. wages,
and the profit on this class of goods
is large, as the industryis highly pro-
tected. Our deposit of clay is very
large ard underlies about fifty acres,
from within ten feet from the surface
to an unknown depth. . Iii a well
known fact that this substance was
the first exported mineral from Amer
lea, being packed over the mountains
TO the sea cost by the Indians, and
was manufactured in France. The
Indian name was Unaka, for white
earth. The Unaka Mountains take
their name from this.
