From Tuesdays Daily.

Mr.. Thos. Williams, of Portland, is
in the city.
1t rained little this morning: but the
day has been clear and sunshiny.
There is no excuse for any man to
appear in society with a grizzly beard
since the introduction of Buckingham S
Dye, which colOrs natural brown or
black
Judge Fulton, of Biggs, paid us an
agreeable call today. He says affairs
in Sherman county are very encourag-
ing, and good crops are expected at
the coming harvest.
A shower of rain fell last evening:
but it was not sufficient to thoroughly
wet the ground as it should be. Moist
ure is very necessary at this season OF
the year for plowing and sowing.
Hon. D. P. Thompson will deliver a
lecture in the Congregational church
next Friday evening. The address
will be on subject connected with the
Orient, with which he is very familiar.
Mr.. J. C. Lucky, formerly Indian
agent at the Warm Springs, was In the
city this morning. He left this after
noon for the agency, where he is en-
ployed in looking up and correcting
the accounts of the clerk.
Prineville Neacs: Last Monday the
Daily MES-MOUNTAINEER came out
enlarged to a siX-column paper, and
with an entire new dress. With these
improvements the TIMES-MOUNT-
AINEER is a credit to the city in which
it is published.
Near an Idaho town recently q
farmer had been missing eggs from his
chicken house. Suspecting that dogs
had something to do with it, he put
poison in a few eggs. They disap-
peared and not dog died; but it took
three physicians to pull neighbours
family through.
G. F. Baker was arrested today for
issuing false and fictitious lottery tick
cts, and his trial was in progress when
the TIMES-MOUNTAINEE went to
press. He raffied off a bicycle yester-
day, and induced the boy to hold the
winning card in his hand before he
drew out the winning number.
Willis, the infant son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Brown, about four months old,
died in the city yesterday, and was
buried in the Odd Fellows cemetery
today from the undertaking parlors of
Mr.. William Michel. The parents
permanently reside in Gillian county,
and have lived here during the winter
months.
Yesterday being the tenth anniver-
sary of the marriage of Miss Olivia
Wallace to Mr.. G. P. Morgan, Mr.. and
Mrs. Morgan, now residing as the, Cas-
cade Locks, gave party to their
many friends. Several from this city
were present, and describe the event
as very pleasant gathering, and one
in which, every one enjoyed himself
and herself.
1t seems that there is one city in the
world that not only escapes taxes, but
pays a dividend to it's inhabitants.
This unique town is Gallnow, Hun
gary, which derives so much revenue
from it's woods, pastures and ferns, that
the corporation furnishes citizens with
free fuel. The most of the money
comes from forests carefully guarded
against waste.
An exchange sizes up the situation
about accurately when it says: ''The
city papers are all right, but it is the
local paper that advertises your school,
your churches, and your societies, SYM
pathizes with you in affection and re-
joices with you in prosperity. In
short, it is your local paper that men
tions the thousand and one items in
which you are interested and which
you do not find in your city paper.
Support your home paper"
Mr.. Edison says that he is making
good progress with an invention that
will throw on a screen the life-size
picture of man speaking while the
phonograph supplies the words, or it
will supply both the movements and
the music of the performance in grand
opera. The music of the future may
be something entirely different from
what Wagner supposed.
Antelope Herald: Last Mondays
Daily ES-MoUNTAINEER came out
in 6-column folio, and wearing a
brand new dress of type. The MOUNT
AMER has been daily visitor to our
exchange table for nearly three years,
and we regard it as an old and reliable
friend. Bro. Michel is one of the
most enterprising newspaper men in
the state, and we wish him continued
prosperity.
