Sunshine There was a large and appreciative
audience present Charles w. Moores introduced

world this would he without sunshine?" the

WENT ESTRAY.

Sad Case of q Seventeen Year Old Girl
Efficient Work of Officers.
About a week ago a man arrived in
town from near Portland accompanied
by a young girl about seventeen years
of age. Immediately on arriving he
placed the girl in house of ill fame
and hassbe living with her since.
Marshal Lauer got wind of the affair
and set to work at once to find out all
he could about The case. By interview
ing the proper authorities he learned
that nothing could be done regarding
the girl so he turned his attention to
the man, and last night succeeded in
having him leave the city. The girl
has sister living in this city and in
company with Marshal Lauer they had
a talk with the girl and tried to per-
suade her to leave the miserable life
she had begun to lead. She replied
that she did not care to reform and
that the life was good enough for
her as she had ruined her prospects
already. All arguments and pIeadings
were to no avail, SO she has been left
to her peril. There should be some
way in which man coula be punished
who would lead such a young girl to de-
struction. There is surely not the least
bit of manhood or respect about him
and he is not fit to mingle with society
ard should be placed where he can
not use his influence in the future.

A FIELD FOR CHURCH WORK.
Lutheran Ministers Encouraged by Tri
Into the Country

Lutheran Ministers Encouraged by = Trip
Into the Country
Rev. Z. Gray, of this city, and Rev.
]. T. Beates, of Seattle, have returned
from visit to Sherman county, and
report pleasant trip, also that the
farmers in Sherman are wearing pleas
ant faces, on account of their wheat
fields looking we'll and not suffering
materially for want of rain. The OBJ
ject of their trip was to look over the
country south and east of here with q
view to the extension of Lutheran
missionary work, and it was intended
to have visited Wasco, Moro, Grass
Valley and Prineville, but the field at
Wasco proved more promising than
they had anticipated, hence the trip
south was postponed to some future
date, and a thorough canvass of the
northern part of Sherman county was
at once undertaken.
The people OF that section subscribed
SO literally to the support of an Eng
lish Lutheran church, that it was de-
cided to extend call at once to an
English Lutheran student of theology
from Chicago seminary who will ne
ordained next month. About all the
Lutherans in Northern Sherman
county participate in this move, and
the matter is now in the hands of Rev.
J. T. Beates, president of the North
Pacific Conference of the English
Lutheran church. 1t is highly prob
able the plan will mature, and that the
second English Lutheran minister
will be stationed in Eastern Oregon
before the elapse of many weeks.

Truly Patriotic Order.

The presentation of a handsome silk
flag to Company G, by the Benevolent
and Protective Order of Elks was in
deed an evidence of the patriotism of
that noble order. The flag presented
was one that was disposed of at the
Catholic fair here last fall to the most
popular society in the city. and was
carried away by Cascade Looge, No.
3O3, B. P. o. Elks, after hard-fought
contest for supremacy. However, the
lodge, while the American flag is one
OF its em blems, felt that The Dalles
militia, after being called out to do
battle with the Spanish murderers.
had more need for the flag than has
the lodge, concluded to present it to
the Company G. with the hope that it
will never be trailed in the dust or al
lowed to fall into the hands OF the
nations enemies. This little act on
the part of Cascade Lodge fully demon
strates the patriotism of the order,
aud evidences the fact that it is truly
an American institution. ~

effort to give its readers condensed

200 additional daily subscribers it will
continue taking an afternoon telegraph
report that will contain from one to
one and one-half columns of dis
patches each day. If the citizens of
The Dalles want the news Of today

by giving the paper an increased sup
port. 1t will be delivered at your door
each evening for Is cents week or

WAR TAX ON RAILROADS.
The Matter Being Very Seriously Discuss
ed at Portland

The Matter Being Very Seriously Discuss
ed at Portland
Local railroad circles are discussing,
with much spirit, a tax which it is un-
derstood the government will soon
levy upon railroads. 1t is said the tax
will amount to FIVE cents for each
ticket sold. Just how the talk started
that railroads are to be taxed is not
known. 1t is discussed with as much
seriousness, however, as ii congress
had actually passed such measure.
Some are of the opinion that the
maximum rate law effective in some
states will prevent adding anything to
the present prices of tickets, and
others say that the increase will not
be an increase in the price of tickets,
but will be the tax and that the gov
ernment and the passengers can settle
between them, and as far as state laws
on the subject of maximum rates are
concerned, government laws will take
precedence over any enactment by
state legislatures.
Another question is whether the
tax will be made to cover all fares paid
for transportation or simply tickets
sold. If the latter construction 10 te
rule, the roads say that they Will sell

TIE RUSH CONTINUES.

Customers Know q Good Thing When
They See 1t.
There IL no abatement to the rush
for goods at the great Northern Furni-
ture store, and the reason 10 easily ex-
planned. 1t is because such elegant
goods are sold at such reasonable
prices. Just think of handsome bed
room set for so and up, while all other
goods are marked at corresponding
low prices.
And the variety of goods to select
from is another attraction. In steel
ranges of the Bowers make, which is
the best range on the market, the Gus
toner finds any size or style he may
desire. Then there is large stock of
graniteware, dishes, crockery, tinware,
and in fact everything needed in
housefurnishing. The stock is COM
plete, the variety large and the prices
are 60 reasonable anyone can afford to
buy. The rush will continue at this
store all summer, for everybody will
discard old furniture and buy new
when it can be had so reasonably.

public, and Immediately all vacant
seats were taken. Mayor Nolan step
ped upon the stage and announced to
the vast audience the object of the
meeting. He stated the first thing
necessary was the election of chair
man. and suggested ex-Gov. Moody,
who was elected unanimously. On
Mr.. Moody's taking the chair he stat
| ed that nominations for vice presidents

F. Isenberg, Harvey Smith, and Capt.
Lewis. A number of these gentlemen
present took their positions on the
stage. and were followed by about
thirty singers under the direction of
G. J. Crandall. After rendering our
national hymn, America, the follow
ing gentlemen were introduced, and
spoke in glowing terms of our boys
and their patriotism and willingness
to defend our country against the hos
tilities of Spain. Messrs. N. j. Sim
mott, W. b. Wilson, B. S. Huntington,
NJ. P. Isenberg, Fred w. Wilson, Jno.

Mrs. L. E. Grove, bearing the beauti-
full silk flag of the Eiks, then came
upon the stage. In presenting the |

tiful flag as a token of their esteem,
and appreciation of the manner in
which they have responded to the call
of our country in its hour OF need.
This flag, as we'll as being the flag OF
our country, ia an emblem of their
order, and one which they dearly
prize. and in presenting it to you they
do 80 with the hope and belief that
wherever you may be called upon to
follow, it will lead you to victory"
Capt. Booth responded in neat lit
tie speech, thanking the Elks and say
ing that no matter where they were
called. they would willingly go, and
that with this beautiful flag of our
country at their head, they would fol-
low and defend it with their lives.
The chorus then sang "Auld Lang
Syne," the song dear to the hearts OF
all Elks. After three hearty cheers
for Cascade Lodge, No. 303, the i'm
mense audience dispersed
