A Dry Day In Astoria.

Astoria held city election Wednes-
day, and the law requiring saloons
closed on election day was strictly en-
forced, says the Astorian:
''For the first time in the history OF
Astoria on election day not drop of
any kind of liquor could be purchased
yesterday anywhere in the city.
Through the commendable action of
the Liquor Dealers Association, every
saloon, back and front doors. hotel bar
rooms, restaurants, drug stores, grocer
les, and the clubs, were absolutely and
tightly closed to all customers. An
election day without the influence of
the bottle, and without the sight OF
gangs OF half intoxicated men and
ward heelers is novelty in Oregon
and an unheard of thing in Astoria.
1t was hard to find man on the streets
yesterday with even sign ON his. face
of having met with any ones over
coat bottle,''

The Last Ball of 1895

Although the grand ball to be given
by Columbia Hose Co. No. 2 on the
hight OF December 81, is to be the last
one this year, this does not indicate
that it will be the least attractive; in
fact 1t is expected that this will be the
best ball OF the season, at least it is
the Intention of the members of the
company to make it such. Elaborate
preparations are already being made.
The opera house will be elegantly dec
grated, handsome programmes will be
prepared, and the Orchestra Union
will furnish the music. Neither time
nor expense will be spared to make
this one OF the greatest social events
OF the winter

"a NIGHT OFF,
The Interesting Play Well Rendered by
the Home Club.

The Interesting Play Well Rendered by
the Home Club.
The comedy given by the Home Dra-
matte Club at the Baldwin was one OF
the most interesting ever rendered
either by home players or professionals
in this city, and the appreciation of
home talent was evidenced by every
seat in the large opera house being
filed at an early hour. Hardly had
the orchestra finished the march
"Semper Fidilis," which is indeed
one of Sousa's grandest productions,
when the curtain raised, displaying an
elegantly furnished parlor, the home
of Prof. Babbitt, the muchly hem
pecked husband, who has weakness
for play writing and prevaricating.
The plot was very prettily and. fantas-
tically arranged, full of surprises and
untimely discoveries that terminate
disastrously to the professor, his er.
ring son-in-law, DR.. Damask, and Nor
cus-Brutus Snap, the adventurer.
The parts were all we'll taken, and
the members of the club lost none of
the laurels they have won in the past
Mr.. Lonsdale. as Justinian Babbitt,
was a personifcation of meekness, es-
pecially when his vigorous wifn zan-
tippe was about, and in turn Mrs.
Blakeley, as Zanttppe, with perfect
ease asserted her sway over the pro-
fessor and DIR. Damask, her wayward
son-in-law, a character ably taken by
Mr.. r. B. Sinnott, and her daughter,
the DOCTORS wife, role taken by Miss
Myrtle Michel, who very happily rep
resented confiding bride, though too
inquisitive regarding the early life of
her husband. In the role of Marcus
Brutus Snap, the tragedian and advea-
turer in search Of fortune, Mr.. N. J.
Sinnott was great, while Mr.. John
Hampshire, as Jack Mulberry, the gay
young actor, was q difficult character
well taken. Miss Rose Michel, in the
character of Nisbe, youngest daughter
OF the professor, did exceedingly well,
especially in the fainting scene and in
winning the affections of Jack and his
father, Lord Mulberry, represented by
Mr.. F. w. Wilson, who as grand old
man and forgiving parent, appeared
every inch an actor. But the most in
teresting character was that taken by
Mrs. A. Varney, Susan. the inquisitive
servant, always in trouble herself and
bringing others into difficulty.
Throughout the entire play the acting
was perfect, and brought forth hearty
and frequent applause.

KINGSLEY BRIEFS.
General Activity Reported In and About
Kingsley.

General Activity Reported In and About
Kingsley.
We are having fine weather and
many of our farmers are plowing. the
recent snow having made the ground
sufficiently moist.
Hugh Morehead and family have
moved to Dufur, ana will make that
place their future home. Mr.. More
head has been foreman of the Roht
Kelly ranch for the past three years,
and leaves many friends in and around
Kingsley.
J. P. Ward has been suffering from
an overdose of neuralgia fer the past
week.
We understand Thos. Bolton, who
has been fighting stubborn attack of
rheumatism for some time past, is
slowly recovering.
And now the prairie chickens, real
izing that it is against the law to kill
them, come right into town, sit on the
front gate, and spitefully sing that old
familiar hymn found on page 2, Oregon
State Game Laws. entitled "There's a
lock on the chicken house door," or
words to that effect. Kingsley has
been "full of 'em" the past week.
Mrs. C. Phillips, usually called
Grandma Phillips, has been very sick
the past month with bronchitis. But
little hopes are entertained for her re-
covery. Grandma has resided in and
adjacent to Kingsley for % years, and
her friends are numbered by the score,
who all hope for her ultimate recovery.
Her granddaughters, Misses Mary and
Lizzie Cox, are waiting on her, and
are proving themselves to be accep-
tionally good nurses.
We learn that Warts Hix, who went
from this place to the hospital at Port
land, is getting along fine. and is ex-
pected home about Christmas. His
family have moved onto the Robt.
Kelly farm.
w. H. Butts, of The Dalles, was
shaking hands with his many friends
in Kingsley this week..
The young ladies of Kingsley have
at last discovered positive cure for
pimples and the removal of freckles
and tan. Judging from the looks of
their usually pretty faces, what they
now need is some lotion that will grow
the "hide back on"
There is some talk of organizing a
literary society in Kingsley. Keep
the ball rolling. We must have some
place to go this winter. KNARF.

Permanent Organization of the CONNER

When President Schenck called the
club meeting together at the council
chambers Tuesday night, the executive
committee reported having enrolled
something over 100 mem bers, and made
satisfactory collections. Nothing more
remained to be done to effect perma-
nent organization than to name the
club, and by an almost unanimous vote
it was christened The Dalles CONNER.

This organization starts off under
most favorable circumstances, such as
to insure its success and permanency,
There is no lack of enthusiasm either
on the part of officers or members, all
displaying disposition To exert their
energies to further the interests for
which the club is organized, to pro-
mote social, physical and financial de-
velopment, and being composed of the
leading business men of the city as
well as the best element among the
young men of the Dalles, there is no
limit to the results 1t may accomplish.

The French Of the Paw.uxet Valley
Insist on Observing "New Years"
A Holiday in the Valley Villages in
spite Of the Mill Managers.

They observe New Years as a day OF
festival in France and the French of the
Pawtuxet Valley, this country and State,
are determined to hold 20 the custom OF
kinsmen across the water.
A year ago today the mills OF b. q
r. knight In TIC valley villages were all
shut Gown that the foreign operatives
might enjoy themselves. Among the
Incidents of the day was a
very serious stabbing affair, so this year
the employers thought it best to open he
mills and keep the workmen from de-
pleting their own number by violence.
But tho innovation is not appreciated.
At the mills in River Point, Jackson, Lip
pitt and Arkwright the operatives re-
sponded to the factory bells and went in,
but only worked % minutes and then
walked out in body. Two thousand men
and women from River Point paraded to
Arctic and demanded that the help there
should quit work and come outside and
enjoy New Years. The demand was very
generally acceeded to.
In Natick the same thing was done, ex-
cept that few Of the hands remained at
their looms.
