carloads of sheep to Troutdale. These
came from the interior and were in fine

were shipped in one train load from

for French & Co., of this city.
1t began raining last night about
o'clock and continued until 6 this
morning, wetting the ground thor
oughly. This has been of immeasur-
able benefit to the country, and grain
will spring into new life.
The address of DIR. Doane at the
Congregational church last evening
attracted fair audience. 1t was full
of information, and treated the Subject
= in a scientific manner. "The Physi-
clan of the Twentieth Century" was
pictured in graphic language, and in
such a manner as to interest all who
were present.
A physician was called out of his
Office yesterday very hurriedly, and
told that a very important case re-
quired his attention. He ran into the
street, and anXiously inquired what
was the matter. The wag informed
the doctor that runaway team had
broken the tongue of wagon, and it
would require his skill to set it.
Last Monday Mr.. Chas. Tibbetts re-
ceived letter from his home in Mon
teray, California, notifying him of the

day morning he left for California, and
today news was received that Mr.. Tib-
bets father died this morning at half
past 10 o'clock. 1t is expected that Mr.

mother, and not return to this city.
Lewiston Teller: The steamer Le,cis-
ton made trip up to Lapwai Saturday
after cargo of wheat and brought
down 2051 sacks, the property of F. W.
Kettenback and John P. Vollmer
There are yet some 5000 sacks of wheat
to move from Lapwai, which will
necessitate the steamer making three
or four trips to that point to do so.
Quite number took advantage of the
trip Saturday and went up on an out
lug of pleasure.
Five families arrived in Pendleton
yesterday from Alma, Nebraska, via
the Northern Pacific, says the Tribune
They will all locate either in that city
or in the surrounding country, and
glad indeed they are to leave barren
Nebraska and gaze upon the fertile
wheat fields of Umatilla county. The
party includes II or 20 adults and chill
dren and they are already temporarily
situated in Pendleton. The men were |
engaged in farming in Nebraska but
obliged to abandon agricultural pur-
suits there and move west.
