Rain for Plants.

Rain does plants comparatively little
good until 1t enters the soil, where it
can be absorbed by their roots. A daily
record of the amount of water in the
soil would indicate whether the indi-
cations We're favorable or otherwise for
certain crops. There IS plan for bury
ing specially constructed electrodes in
the soil, in order that by measuring the
resistance to the passage of a current
through the soil the amount of moist
ure can be ascertained. This method
was suggested by the necessity of
grounding thoroughly telephone and
telegraph lines. If the terminals are
not continually in moist soil the lines
do not work during dry seasons.

News From the stikine

J. Edwards has just returned from
trip to the Stikine river. where he
went with Capt. Johnston. who is
master of a steamer on that swift river.
Mr.. Edwards says the climate is quite
pleasant, but the mosquitoes are very
annoying and nearly as large as wasps,
while their visit is not forgotten for
some time.
On the run that Capt. Johnstone has
which is between Fort Wrangell and
Glenora, a distance of $50 miles, it
tekes four days to 60 up the river and
eight hours to come down. The swift
ness can hardly be realized, but when
four days is compared with eight hours
it is easily seen there is quite differ
ence in time. At Fort Wrangell there
are no less than twenty steamers tied
up, says Mr. Edwards. waiting for busi-

The Dalles Is the Best Market in Eastern
Oregon.

The Dalles Is the Best Market in Eastern
Oregon.
During the past year Heppner has
put forth commendable efforts to
secure trade that has formerly come
to The Oalles, but has met with a
"cold hand" Last fall the enterpris-
ing people of that city contributed
literally to fund for improving the
road to Mitchell, hoping to get the
trade of that place. and induce the
wool raisers of Bridge creek to bring
their products to Heppner. A good
road was built, and the distance
tween being only eighty miles, it was
thought the wool would naturally 20
there, but il did not. The sheepmen
of Mitchell and vicinity sent their
wool to The Dalles, distance of 125
miller, for they we'll knew that when it
was stored in the warehouse bere it
would command the highest price to
be obtained anywhere on the coast.
This is proof positive that The
Dalles retains the confidence of the
producers of the interior, and that it
must continue to be the shipping point
for the surrounding country until
railroads are built to the very doors of
the producers. The best prices for the
products of the country have always
prevailed here, and since Dalles mer-
chants sell at very nearly Portland
prices, the farmers of the Inland EN-
pire who are within reach of this place
end no encouragement to go else
where.

Excursion Last Night.

At $50 last evening the Regulator
left the dock with jolly crowd of ex
cursionists. The Alpha Mandolin ani
Guitar Club entertained the guests
with numerous selections, while they
we're favored with solos and quartettes
by some of the best talent in the city.
Going down, the wind was quite strong
and most all were compelled to re-
main inside, but on the return trip, it
was decidedly pleasant and the decks
were thronged with merry.makers.
About one hundred and sixty wei g
aboard and from all appearances en-
joyed themselves very much, The
Regulator went down nearly as far as
Hood River and did not get back un.
til 1880. The club made a success OF
the excursion, and it is to be hoped,
during the summer months when the
heat is oppressive, they will give
more of their pleasant excursions. for
then they will be thoroughly appre-
ciated.

Elk's Jolly Social.

The social given by the Portland
lodge of Elks Thursday night, says the
Oregonian, was an entirely successful
affair. The feature uf the nights a.
tertainment was the presence of the
Norris Brothers band and members of
"The Prodigal Father" company. Tom
Carwell, as leader of the band, playing
a clarionet, and at the same time
directing the work of his fellow-play-
ers with his instrument, provoked the
greatest enthusiasm. When "Ameri-
ca" and other patriotic airs were
played, every man in the hall was on
his feet and continued standing until
the selection was completed. Among
"The Prodigal Father" company who
assisted in the entertainment were
Lyman Welcher, the manager, Bert
Swan, George SpinK, Charles Hooker
and L. Williams, all of whom did their
turns" to the greatest satisfaction of
all present. Henry Griffi presided as
master of ceremonies, and that of it.
self was sufficient to insure complete
success of the entertainment.

men who have been up there for
months have not gotten more than
sixty miles from Telegraph creek,
which is only twelve miles from
Clenora. He does no. think single

the interior to make any rich strike.
Lots of the men who have started out
with the firm determination of pros
pecting the country thoroughly,are re-
turning disgusted with their attempt.

The individual red man adds to his
learning as his race passes into decay
At Ellensburg, Wash, last week, an
Indian named Antwine was granted a
divorce from his klootchman. After
the decree had been signed the lawyer
explained to Antwine that the law
forbade remarriage within six months.
Thinking that the ends of justice
would be better served, the lawyer
made the explanation in Chinook.
After he had twisted his jaw into all
sorts of shapes with such jargon as
"okoke," "kopa okoke, "mammocok
law" "mika ticky," 'taghum moon"
and others no better, the Indian said:
"Thank you, Mr.. Attorney, under
stand the conditions exactly, as care
fully read The law on divorces before /
began this suit" This particular
Ellensburg lawyer has burned his text
book on Chinook, and is thinking, as
a further penance, of hiring dozen
strong bucks from the North Yakima
reservation to kick him all over the
Big Bend empire.-Herali.
Antwine is we'll known in The
Dalles, and the above is good illus.
tration of his character and naIive
genius.
