THE OREGON DELEGAr1oN.
They Meet to Discuss The Dalles Inn
provement Appropriation.

They Meet to Discuss The Dalles Inn
provement Appropriation.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE Oregon
delegation tried to get together last
night for the purpose of agreeing upon
the Nkind of Improvement at The Dalles
that they would recommend. Repre-
sentative Ellis was away on congress
sional funeral and no agreement was
reached. Senators Dolph and Mitchell
and Representative Hermann discussed
the, matter at some length, and then
agreed to refer the whole matter to an
other meeting to be held when Ellis re-
turned. Hermann told the senators
that it would be very doubtful if the
river and harbor committee could be
induced to do anything for The Dalles
this season, because of the determine
ton of the committee not to authorize
any new projects in this bill, and the
determination to make it a very small
one. Both of the senators prefer the
boat railway. Hermann said he would
try and get anything the delegation
would agree upon,, but that he knew
from past experience InaC Cne COLI mIHlIIee
would never agree to the boat railway.
1t was decided to have another meeting
when Ellis returned, and whatever was
decided upon should be advocated by
the entire delegation before the house
committee, Hermann promising to OBJ
tain hearing for this purpose. Other
projects in Oregon were discussed, and
Hermann told the senator's that Oregon
would be cut with other states.

Northern Pacific Receivers and EN-

MnwAUKEB, Feb. 1o.-The Northern
Pacific receivers Representatives of
the employees have reached an agree
ment. The men wanted the schedule of
wages raised, but the receivers refused
this. The demands of the trainmen to

standard run should be 100 miles and
the time allowed to make it 10 hours.
Shorter runs should be paid in proper

The Oregon style in California.

SAN Francisco, Feb. The con-
tract for about 900 worth of cabinet
work on a new building for the San
Francisco Savings Union has been
awarded to A. III. Andrews & Co. of
Chicago. This action resulted in con-
siderable adverse criticism by local fur
niture men. The reason given for award
ing the contract outside of this city or
state is that the building is to be fur
nished in bird's-eye maple, an Eastern
wood, and that should any local firm
have secured the contract it would have
had to send East for all the stock used.

In British Prisona.

In the English compulsory labor
prisons the prisoners pass nine months
in solitary confinement and are then
assigned to the public works prisons
for hard labor. BY good behavior
they experience gradual ameliora-
ton in their condition. At first they
are not allowed to write or receive let
ters and may see no visitors. Then,
upon advancement, they may write
and receive one letter every six
months and see one visitor; then the
privilege is extended to once in four
months, then once in three.

Crook County Ozone.
ochoco Review

Not one-half the hay in Crook county
will be consumed this winter.
This will be long remembered as the
easiest winter Crook county has ever ex-
perienced, and also as the season when
money was the scarcest.
In Crook county we haven't much to
brag on just now but our climate, which
can't be beat. It's just the thing. The
birds are singing in the bush, flowers
are blooming on the hillsides, the festive
wheelman is seen exercising his bicycle
ON the solid roads. and the baseball
fiend has appeared with his ball and bat
announcing that spring has come.

A Battle at Nictheroy.

Rio JANE1Ro, Feb. 1O.-A strong force
of the insurgents from the rebel fleet
landed yesterday at Nictheroy and gave
battle to the government troops. Many
were killed and wounded on both sides.
Peixoto's soldiers, under the command
of General Argollo, made a stubborn re-
sistance. The insurgents did not gain
material advantage, and after a severe
engagement, were forced to retreat.

Railroad traffic is generally interrupted,
and great loss of life is expected in the
country.
1t is learned from official dispatches
that cholera has appeared in CONSTANT

Congressman Wilson is suffering from
nervous prostration as well as tonsilitis,
He must have absolute rest and quiet

cost of these engines is about $3.50, 900.
Just full of fimprovements-Dr.P Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets. To begin with, they're
the smallest and the easiest to take.
They're tiny, sugar-coated anti bilious
granules, scarcely larger than mustard
seeds. Every child is ready for them.
Then, after they're taken, instead of
disturbing and shocking the system,
they act in a mild, easy and natural
way. There's no chance for any reaction
afterward. Their help lasts. Constipa-
or Bilious Headaches, and all derange-
| ments of the liver, stomach and bowels,
are promptly relieved and permanently
cured.
They're put up in glass walls, which
keep them always fresh and reliable, un-
like the ordinary pills in wooden or
pasteboard boxes.
And they're the cheapest pills you can
buy, for they're guaranteed to give satis-
faction, or your money is returned.
You pay only for the good you get.

When you can fully orient yourself
