The neat little passenger steamer &
the D. P. & A. N. line started on the
regular schedule for the first tim
this morning. Although the compan
have experienced considerable
iculty in making the Flyer a succe
they have done admirably as W

The deepest mining in Oregon is
now in progress at the North Pole
mine. seven miles from Sumpter, says
the Baker City Democrat, owned by
Alexander Barring. of London. The
manager. Emil Melzer, who is also
chemist +, recently observed that the
percentage served by the cyanide pro-
cess hac slightly decreased, and he
found on careful examination of the
ore taken from the drift at the 1OJ-
foot level, that there was small
quantity of free gold, so plates were
put in and the free gold saved on them
well justifies the expense incurred.
La the matter of the resurveying the
new Lyle and Goldendale wagon road,
it having come to the knowledge of
the board Of county commissioners fer
Klickita. county that the grade now
built Oh said road Is not all On the
route as described in the report of the
view and survey of said road, it is now
ordered that w. F. Byars. county sur
veyor, take with him the necessary
assistance resurvey said road as
now constructed and report field notes
and plat of said road as so resurveyed
to this board at the regular session in
January, 1899.
Quite mum Der or our local nimrods
hav. been going out in search of
ducks but 30 far none have been overly
burdened by the number killed. The
fact of the matter is there are but few
of these birds to be found and those
are too precautions to allow anyone
to get within shotgun range and it is
purely an accident for hunter to get
close enough to do any great slaughter
or even get enough to repay him for
his trouble so that there is little in-
ducement for our sports to miss re-
ligious service by going duck hunting
on Sunday.
r. quests were sent out yesterday to
those who might ne interested in
organizing dancing club to be pres
ent at the D. c.. & A. G. parlors this
evening 10 talk over the matter of or
ganization of the same. Our town is
somewhat dull for the young people
during the winter months and the
organization of such club would do
mucl toward furnishing amusements.
The Dalles is blessed with as sociable
a class OF people as can be found in
any town and all they need is s, ch
organizations as this to furpis' a
sufficiency of amusement to the n
habitants,
Mr.. Bernie Selleck, of Boyd. in an
interview today: stated that they ad
an inch of snow yesterday, while I'll re
was heavy ice this morning. It ,.lso
| sprinkled some snow in that yaoinity
today ana il would not ne she .leas5
surprised it winter would begin un-
usally early this season. The grain
from that vaciuity is proving of inferior
quality to a great extent and in some
cases the warehousemen buy it with
reluctance as it is badly schriviled and
very light. Heretofore farmers traded
good wheat for bran and mill stuff
] this year they have in some cases
raised no more than bran since the
hulls is about all the wheat is com.
