Degree of Honor Social.

The literary entertainment and dance
given by the Degree of Honor last even
ing was well attended, The program,
which was we'll arranged, consisting of
selections of much merit, proved very
pleasing to the audience. The first
number on the program was a piano
solo played in a brilliant manner by
Mrs. Alice Varney, followed by a vocal
solo 10y Miss Hattie Cram. Miss Martha
Schooling recited in a way that gave
evidence of elocutionary ability on the
part of the young lady. A vocal solo by
Mr.. Charles Clarke was well received
and the young gentleman compelled to
respond to an encore. A recitation by
Mr.. Stewart was among the pleasing
numbers. A solo by Miss Myrtle
Michel, sung with that young lady's
an encore from the audience. The very
good recitation by Miss May Barnett
was among the numbers enjoyed. Mr..
Fisher closed the program by an exhibit
tion OF Jig dancing. Past Grand Master
Brannon of Portland delivered an ad-
dress which was listened to with marked
appreciation by the audience.
After the musical and literary program
was over the floor was cleared and the
dancers reigned supreme. The floor was
smooth, the music excellent and the
dahcers in humor for gliding through
the maze of the waltz. After most
enjoyable evening the entertainment
closed. The receipts were nearly $17.

what number they could. According to
Mr.. Houser over so sheep were sold and
the money not turned in. Mr.. Barker,
who has been a confidential manager for
Mr.. Houser, claims to have had nothing
to do with the selling of the sheep, but
lays the burden of the charge upon
Scott. Scott has been apprehended in
Pendleton, word having been received
from the sheriff of Umat:lla county that
he is there. Deputy Sheriff VIM. Con-
ner, of Multnomah county, came up on
last nights train and will proceed to
Pendleton this evening. He will take
both the men to Portland for examina-
tion, as the crime charged is alleged to
have happened in Multnomah county.

The athletic class, under the charge
OF Prof. Christol, will meet this evening
in the parlors of the Cosmopolitan hotel.
The club will continue meeting there
till better accommodations can be Sc
cured. The professor is meeting with
good success in securing members, and
an enthusiastic class is promised. 1t is
the intention to form an athletic club,
and if possible fix up a gymnasium.
Prof. Christol has promised to aid the
boys by giving all necessary suggestions
as to securing the appliances and ar
ranging them.
Late last night z. P. Jones was
brought to the Umatilla House in a
badly injured condition. He has been
at work for Mr.. Taffe at Cello and yes
terday was standing upon board hoist
ing beam. The board slipped and Mr..
Jones was precipitated to the ground, a
distance of seventeen feet. He alighted
on his back, striking upon solid rock.
He was hurriedly brought to town and
an examination by DIR. Sutherland dis
closed the fact that no bones were
broken, though the injuries are very
severe. He will at least be confined to
bed for quite time.
The stereoptican views at the court
house were not witnessed by very large
crowd last night. There had been a
misunderstanding in the date which ac-
counted in some measure for the small
attendance. The views were scenes
from Oregon, showing different public
buildings in Portland and Oregon cities,
with pictures of the Willamette falls, the
great electrical stations, the Oregon City
| locks, with steamboat passing through
them. The fruit lands of the Willamette
valley were also pictured as were the
notable objects of scenic interest along
| the Colum bia, such as Multnomah falls,
the Needles, Rooster Rock and the like.
Mr.. Goetzman left last night for Pendle-
ton and after stopping there and at
Baker Bity will go on East. It is to be
regretted that some views of The Dalles
and Eastern Oregon do not accompany
Mr.. Goetman. We do not want the
people of the Eastern states to think
that the Willamette valley, great as it is
includes all of Oregon. The pictures
laet night were much enjoyed by those
who were present.
The place where the steam shovel is
working at Mosier must be especially
dangerous. This morning a specia
train came to The Dalles bringing

VERY CUTE CLERK.
AN ORIGINAL PLAN FOR ROBBING
SHOE DEALERS.
Arrangements Made by n Clerk to
Let People Have Goods without
Paying and Afterwards To Coll
le.t Half-Price for the Articles.

Duluth, Nov. 16.-Detective Benson
will return from Chicago tomorrow
with Henry Smith, the ex-shoe clerk Of
Pantcn 4 Watson. who is under in
dictment for grand larceny in the sec
ond degree. A few weeks ago Smith,
II is alleged, organized a scheme to de-
fraud PantOn & Watson by a highly
original scheme OF his OWL devising.
He had an understanding with a mum
Der of people outside the store to let
them have goods without paying, and
afterwards to collect half-price for the
articles, which he appropriated. About
ten days ago it struck Smith that the
shoe stock was not sufficiently varied
to give his peculiar talents full swing.
Accordingly three clerks in other de
partments were let into the scheme on
shares, and for a time all went well.
Finally the firm discovered that goods
were missing, and an investigation fol-
lowed. Smith skipped when one of his
~confederates sQuealed. He was aided
by an Omaha road employe to leave
town, and the latter has been dis
charged by the company. Police Off
Ger Curran has also been suspended for
receiving goods. Several arrests will
be made, and the clerks implicated
Will be used as witnesses. ,

Abating a Nuisance.

Saint Peter was sitting outside the
pearly gates debating n letter to the
recording typewriter angel. while two
of the cherubs were playing jackstones
In the road. Suddenly there appeared
a figure bent almost double over the
handle-bar of a bicycle and fairly
making the pedals hum. Before they
had time to nov he was upon them:
he barely missed running over the
cheruhs, startled Saint Peter so that
he dropped his halo, and scared the re-
cording angel into swallowing her
chewing gum. Alighting from his
wheel, he glanced at his watch, smiled
to himself, then demanded admittance.
Saint Peter picked up his halo, dust
ed 1t off, rang the bell and called out:
"Eront, show this gentleman to the
lower chute!''
Then, as the cyclist was led away,
Saint Peter turned to the recording
angel and remarked: That's one
place where he can 'scorch' without
being a nuisance 10 any one."-Puck.

Des MOines. Iowa. Nov. 16.-The
state executive council has discovered
what promises to develop into II OF
the biggest scandals ever known in
Iowa official circles. Under the laws
insane patients who cannot pay for
support in state hospitals must be
cared for by the counties from which
they are sent if they have n residence
in the counties. Patients who have no
residence are cared for at the states
expense. Investigation has developed
the fact that insane from Illinois coun-
ties adjoining Scott county. III Iowa
have been sen over to Iowa and taken
TO Iowa asylums as state patients by
Scott county officials. The council de-
clares this has been going on for a
long time in other border counties as
well as In Scott county officials reaping
a rich harvest in fees and mulucting
the state. A thorough investigation
will be made.
