THANKSGIVING Oay.

Yesterday was generally observed in our
city, many Of the churches holding service
in the morning, and nearly every business
place in our city was closed IL the after
noon. The citizens generally partook of
good dinner, plenty being the rule and
want the exception. Good order prevailed
and the day passed quietly away, the rain
and snow preventing any great gathering
on the streets We hope tho citizens arc
oil better morally and physically for the
exercises of the day. 1t is now 276 years
since Thanksgiving Dsy was instituted
by Governor Bradford Of Massachusetts,,
and in New England 1t has been annually
observed, but is is only about forty years
since it has been nationalized by q procla-
nation by the President of tho United
States. 1t Is now one Of the important
days in the American calendar and 1t Is
probable that 1t will continue to DO OBJ
served as long us this Nation shall endure.
There is something ennobling in thanks
giving, in family reunions, and good cheer
and every year will most probably in ;rcass
the yenoration in which 1t is hcld.We have
reason to be thankful for peace aud plenty
for political and religious freedom as well
as other manifol blessings and the pros
pect of greater progress and development,
not only in our own country but in all the
nations of the earth.

A serious runaway occurred at o. D.
5Taylor's place, near this city, about 80
this afternoon. Miss Anna Taylor was
driving a buggy, when the horse took
fright and ran away, throwing her out
on her side. Her right shoulder joint
was dislocated by the fall and she was
badly bruised about the body and head.
DR.. Logan was called and attended to
her injuries. He left her resting easy,
and although she was severely injured
she will be able to be around in a few
weeks.
While Mr.. Nixon of DeMoss Springs
was coming into Wasco Wednesday, his
little son Nathan, aged about years,
jumped to the ground from the head
wagon and attempted to get into the
trail wagon. However, he only sue
ceeded in getting caught by its front
wheel, which ran over his left leg, break
ing it above the knee. The little fellow
is gritty and endured the suffering
bravely until brought into town, when
DIR. Sutcliffe attended to his injuries. At
/ last accounts the boy was resting easy.
Contrary to past custom sheep in
Oregon are selling as high as IN Wyom-
ing. And why shouldn't they? AL
though farther west, and consequently
| from the great eastern markets, Oregon
sheep are better than the sheep of
| Wyoming, to which state we export
each year many hundreds OF thorough
bred rams to improve their hocks.
Further, Oregon sheep are rapidly be-
coming as good as the best in the Union,
and, at the present rate of improvements
in breeding, will soon be the best in
the world.
Yesterday Harry Smith, young man
of about "a years of age, was arrested
near Smile, by Constable Hill, charged

The prosecuting witness is man named

ing the art, caused him great bodily and
mental pain. He further alleges that
after the assault he was unable to sleep
for several nights, and prays that his
assailant be punished to the full extent
of the law. His case has been set for
hearing on Tuesday at 10 a. m.

TRAVELLING LIBRARY.
Something New Along The Line of
Popular Education

All the privileges of a regular city
library are secured to the members with
this wonderful plan, together with a
regular course of study (if desirable)
comprising the worlds greatest histori-
cal, scientific and social questions or
problems.
Members have access to library of
1000 volumes of the worlds choicest and
most interesting books with all the
privileges, musical, education, ETC.,
which this wonderful institution gives
at an exceedingly low price. The aver
age cost to members being about twelve
cents per month. This is made possible
by the cooperative plan and magnitude
of the business done. 500 people in ad-
joining communities help pay for the
books that will come here. Besides all
all the above, each member is pre-
,nted with a full five years subscription
to The Library Bulletin, a most excel
lent magazine published by The Par
melle Company in connection with the
studies.
Mr.. o. K. Fitzsimmons and Mr.. II. E
Riner are in the city in the interests OF
the above and are having fine success
Nearly enough members were secured
for one station in one day. The work is
intensely interesting to all and we
should haye at least two sections here tc
accommodate all those who desire mem
bership. Don't fail TO look into it.

from the threshing engine had ignited
a near by straw stack, from which the
flames communicated with the stubble,
and large area was burned over. Had
it not been for the numerous hands
which answered to the cry for help, Mr..
Stevens would have suffered the loss of
many stacks of grain. As it was the
fire was extinguished with wet sacks
before it had reached any of the stacks,
for which Johnny of course teels thank
full.
We understand that Mr.. Christman,
who is on his way to Silver Lake with a
traction engine and three heavily load
ed wagons, has reached the McGrail
place, about sixteen miles from to wn.
He pulled into the yard at that place
for water, and while attempting to back
out had break down, and at present
is laid up for repairs. Bad break downs
have occurred at every mark in the road
which has put them back a great deal,
and 1t is plain that Mr.. Christman's 8
machine cannot stand the rough roads
Eastern Oregon. He hopes hover to
make success OF the venture of haul
ing freight from Hay Creek to Silver
Lake.
And enjoyable party was given at the
residence of Simeon Bolton last evening,
and was attended by all those who were
camped at Stevenson during the hot
spell, and a merrier crowd of young peo-
pie would be hard to find. The party
was given as a farewell to Mr.. and Mrs.
]. E. Barnett and family, who will leave
in short time to make their future
home In Portland. Various games were
INDUCED in and refreshments served.
On the whole. the evening was extremely
pleasant, and on leaving, the guests ex.
pressed regrets that such genial friends
as the Barnetts should leave and hoped
they would again return to make The
Dalles their home.

Valuable Invention.

Letters patent have just been issued
to Lewis Hare, of this city, who is the
inventor of heel and shank brace for
boots and shoes. The invention is de-
signed to keep the heel from getting
crooked, keep the shank from ripping
or twisting, support the hollow of the
foot, and to keep the shoe perfectly
straight. 1t has special advantages
when applied to riding or cowboy boots,
not only keeping them straight, but it
prevents the foot from rolling on the
side when riding. 1t gives the required
strength to the shank, prevents the top
Of the stirup from iniuring the front OF
the ankle, and takes better hold on the
stirup than any boot or shoe can with
out it. In fact it is said to I'll long
felt want in riding boots, and profes-
sional riders who have seen it are en-
thusiastic over its many advantages.
After seeing the model, we have no
hestancy in saying that, while it is
simple in construction, can be easily
and cheaply manufactured, it is also
thoroughly practical, and presents ad-
yantsges Of importance to those employ
ed on railroads, mines. etc. 1t can be
easily attached to boat or shoe by any
one, and is in no way cumbersome, but
is neat and graceful in appearance.
