The Ladies Surprise Mrs. nIggs.

Mrs. W. H. BIggs. who has been
president of the Good Intent Society for
the past three years, was greatly sur
prised yesterday afternoon when about
dozen Of the members of that society
walked into her parlors with the evil
dent intent to spend the afternoon.
Being heartily welcomed, the hours were
passed in such manner, as only
those who are banded together in such
noble work can enjoy.
Mr.. and Mrs. Biggs expect soon to
leave for the East, and although they
will probably return, may not make
this city their home. Wishing to chow
their appreciation of her efficient work
in the society and their affection for
her, whom it would be impossible to be
associated with and not become attached
to, the ladies presented her with silver
pie-knife as token of that regard.
Late in the afternoon refreshments
were brought in, this diversion be-
ing not least because last.

and the producers. In other years at
this time numerous wool sales would
have been made and thousands of
pounds would have been shipped to
eastern markets. This year, however,
the producers are extremely anxious to
hold their wool for higher prices, which
causes the lack of storage room in the
warehouses.
Yesterday John Russell, of Kingsley,
was in the city. Mr.. Russell is certain
ly one of Wasco county's prosperous
farmers, since he has large acreage of
wheat this year that cannot be excelled.
He reports that harvesting has begun
on this side OF Dufur but no grain will
be in condition to cut in the country
south of Dufur for about two weeks
longer. The farmers in this vicinity are
busy at present getting through with
their having.
Several citizens who have recently
made trips through the Palouse country
have informed the Oaksdale Sun that
the orchards have heavy yield of the
finest fruit. Years ago it was thought a
waste of time to plant orchards, but the
erroneous belief has happily been dis
proved. So many splendid young orch
ards are growing up that in the near fu-
ture this section of the country will, not
only as producer of grain but of fruits
as we'll, be famous.
We understand that it will be neces-
sary for the pity council to again take

the ultimate en- of the matter.
The party of twenty-six Mazamas who
started from Portland, July 18th, for
Mount st. Helens, were deserted by
their packer last Sunday and left on foot
in the mountains long way from home,
and some distance from the mountains
they were bound to. As they are all
accustomed to camping out and able to
take care of themselves, there need be
no apprehension of their meeting with
the unhappy fate of the babes in the
woods. The packer stated that he had
disagreed with the excursionists and had
left them and their outfit about mile
and half from the lake, at the base of
the mountain.
