College songs and rollickng college

and yet their numbers are always per-

IL will be q real treat to hear the
mandolin and banjo played well. Male
quartets are always popular if good,
and of all the quartets on the coast,
none have met with more unanimous
success than has the Berkeley four.

WORD FROM OUR SOLDIERS.
The Boys in Blue Write Home to Friends
in The Dailes.

The Boys in Blue Write Home to Friends
in The Dailes.
When the $40 mail arrived last even
ing there were many anxious people
about the postoffice waiting for letters
from the boys who enlisted in the
Oregon regiment, now at Manila, and
many hearts were made glad by the
receipt of tokens of remembrance from
those near and dear to them.
The writer has had the pleasure OF
reading number of letters written
from Honolulu by Dalles boys under
date of June Sd and 4th, and all the
writer's express themselves as being
satisfied with'soldier life, and with the
trip from San Francisco to the Ha-
waiian islands.
G. w. Ballard received long letter
from his son Ernest R., written in the
senate chamber at Honolulu, also
diary that Ernest had kept from the
day Ct. G. was called out until they
reached Honolulu, that gives quite
graphic description of life at Camp
Mckinley and the Presidio, also of the
trip across to Honolulu. He notes
grand reception given the American
troops by the Hawaiians, and says they
are whole souled, generous people.
A letter from Ed Lemison to his
mother tells of the trip across from
San Francisco to Honolulu and the
reception tendered the soldiers by the
people of that city. Ed says the city
was thrown, open to the Amer
leans. Everything, even street car
fare, was free to the boys in blue.
They were banqueted at the executive
building, and all had the pleasure of
shaking hands with Mrs. Dole, wife of
the president.
When the boys left Honolulu they
were in gooo spirits and were anxious
for the day when they should be given
anOpportunity to meet the Spaniards
on the Philippine islands.

"The singing of the quartet excelle6
anything ever heard BEFORE" and Other
papers speak in the same way of their
singing. The quartet is not the only
attraction. The boys carry with them
a quintet of mandolin and banjo play
ers and they are excellent performers.
Char les E. PARCELS, the yiolinist of
the party, has gained the reputation
of being the best amateur on the coast;
and "Brick'' Morse sings a tenor solo.
G. B. Newton is u character delineator
of the first rank, and will be heard in
some of his best selections. The col
lege boys appear at the opera house,

From the Hawaiian Gazette and the
Commercial Advertiser we clip the
the following. which plainly goes to
show how much our boys are thought
of by the residents of the paradise of
the Pacific.
The Oregon boys say that they
shall never forget the hospitality
accorded them by the Oregonians in
the city.
"We're going to change the spelling
of Manila" said a waggish little
boy in blue. well knock 'l'out of
it.''
The Oregon boys in town certainly
gave the soldiers from their native
state hearty welcome. Ed. Oekum
was in the front rank.
A register of all the Oregonians is
open at Ned Adams Office at the
Hawaiian Cyclery. A report will be
sent back to Oregon by the next mail.
Mr.. Pearson treated all comers to the
use of bicycles.
The people along the wharves were
jostling each other, in all direction,
for place from which to better view
the arrival in port of the transports.
Conspicuous here and there were men
and women with umbrellas upon which
was the word, Oregon. The California
people were to be found by their shouts.
Said resident of Oregon yesterday:
"Portland and San Francisco were
patriotic but Honolulu takes the cake"
So far as can be learned Honolulu
still contains four of the. Philippine
expedition. One man of the first Cali
fornia regiment was discharged on ac-
count of general debility. One man
of the Oregon regiment is in quaran-
tine. He was supposed to have the
measels, but it was telephoned last
night that his trouble was only rash.
He will go forward with one of the
coming transports. There are two
men in town who simply say that they
did not care to travel further with the
brigade They belonged to the Oregon
regiment.

Important to Subscribers.

On account of an increase in the
price of paper owing to the war tax
and Dingley tariff law, it has become
necessary to advance the SUBSCRIPTION
price of The Times -Mountaineer.
Having bought a large stock of paper
before prices advanced, we will not in.
crease the subscription until Septem-
ber 1, 1898, but after that date the
subscription will be advanced to 800
a year. This will give all patrons an
opportunity to renew their subscript
ion before that date, and thus save
themselves so cents.
On and after September 1892. the
Weekly Times-Mountaineer will be
put on strictly cash in advance basis
aud all papers not paid for in advance
will be discontinued.

Major Glenn Would Enlist.

Any OF the old timers who may have
happened into the Umatilla house last
evening would have noticed in the
uniform of a U. S. major, gentleman
who in size at least must have remin-
ded them of little Phil Sheridan, as he
appeared here 40 years ago. The gen.

history as Johnny Glenn" the drum

ter, U. S. A., depot quartermaster at
Portland.
The major, with his wife and son,
Sargent Glenn, came up on the 500
train and returned on the Sarah Dixon
this morning. Major Glenn is anxious
to be sent to the front, but not on staff
duty, and has made application for a
command in the field at the earliest
convenience of the department, though
so far his application has not met with
success.

Reports of the most glowing kind
come from the south of the phenomenal
success with which the Berkeley quar-
tet is meeting. They have been on

have met with the most enthusiastic
reception. The Vallejo News says;

aud instead of being bear dog he
was a good chicken dog, perhaps set.
ter. Billy made more enemies, and
had more squabbles with the women
on this trip than he ever expected to
have in his life. The dog, Fen says. is
not of common stock, consequently
does not like the food usually given to
ours, and will only eat the choice parts
of the chicken. Billy found this out
when he went for the bear hunt, for
even then the dog was chicken hearted.
Several bills from farmers for loss of
fowls have been sent to Fen and from
all indications he will have to bear the
expense.
