PRESERVING AFRICAN BIG GAME
British Government VIII Protect the
 Fauna of Africa.

Gauna oI 4&iAit1.
 With reference to the international action which the government has in view for the preservation of the big fauna of Africa. 1 have had the oppor- tunity of hearing the opinion of one Of the greatest living authorities on the subject. This individual has passed the greater part of his life in the dis tricts of Africa affected by the legisla- ton in force and prospective for pro- hibitfng the killing of big game. He as- sures me that all the laws in operation fail to achieve the purpose in view in the localities where the natives are a1- lowed to carry guns. in British East Africa, where the whites are strictly forbidden to shoot big game without authority, the natives are allowed to kill indiseriminately and without check everything they come across. In Mashonaland and Matabeleland, on the other hand, since the disarmament of the natives there has been a percep- tible increase in cert-in species, and this increase is likely to gradually be- come more marked as time goes on and the regulations are enforced. Antelope of different kinds have lately been seen in the neighborhood of Buluwayo, pletely disappeared from the country, and there is reason to believe that in Rhodesia the danger of extinction of many of the species, which at one time was real, had been checked if not alto- gether averted.-Birmingha Post. Chinese Tea Transported Through Russia
 The Siberian News, of Tomsk, is one of the few newspapers published in Sl- | beria. and gives some interesting par ticulars in regard to the transportation of Chinese tea through Russia. The Tomsk newspaper says proudly that in the first twenty days of last January no less than 19,0oo sleighs loaded with tea passed through the Siberian city Every sleigh carries usually five bales of tea. packed in OK skin, each weigh ing from 100 to 160 pounds. The men sleep on the sleighs during the trip across Siberia. which lasts nearly one year. It would be shorter to send the Chinese tea by sea; but in this case the custom house duties are high, while they are comparatively small on tea imported by the land route. Russian merchants, who have long had most of the European tea business in their | hands, are greatly disturbed over the great growth in public favor of the i Ceylon teas which are distributed from London

wEleEL-cusHINo WEDDING.
Two Popular Dalles Young People
Married at High Noon Today.

There are some pleasant duties which
even newspaper reporters have to per-
form, and among them is the chronlcling
of the ceremony which unites two young
people whose happiness is so generally
hoped for and who seem to be SO per-
fectly suited to each other as were Mr..
John II. Weigel and Miss Matte Cush-
ing, who were at high noon today unit
ed in marriage by Rev. DIV. Polling, at
the home of the brides parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. @. B. Cushing, on Eighth street.
The wedding was quiet one, but two
or three friends outside of the immedi-
ate families being present.
The parlors were very prettily deco
rated in smilax and cut flowers, while
the bridal party stood beneath a bower
of smilax, and directly abovethem hung
a beautiful design of hyacinths and
white roses representing two hearts
| joined together. Mr.. Fred Weigel,
brother of the groom, and Mics Maie
Cushing, sister of the bride, acted as
groomsman and bridesmaid.
The bride was attired in pretty gown
of cream silk, and carried a bunch of
sweet violets, while the groom wore the
conventional black suit of the latest cut.
At the close of the marriage ceremony
when all had expressed their congratu-
lations and wished them all the Joy
which this life affords, the party sat
down to an elaborate wedding dinner,
amid the happiest of conversations and
heartiest good will.
These young people are too well known
to Dalles people for THE CHRONICLE to
say anything which would add to their
popularity. However, we cannot re-
frain from extending our congratulations
! to young man who is SO fortunate as
to secure such sweet, lovable, modest
young lady as his bride, for nowhere
could one be found who ls better suited
to make perfect wife. Nor can we,
on the other hand, think of a man
more fitted in his wealth of character
and industrious, steady habits to be.
come the husband Of such one. Mr..
Weigel is general favorite with Dallet
people, and by his life here since child.

a sure sign of heavy wind storm, but it

ever, with such bright sunshine and
good sleighing we are contented.
The following Manila mail schedule
has been announced for January: The
fret mail steamer for the Orient sails
from Seattle, January IL; the next sails
from San Francisco on January II /; one
sails from San Francisco on the 25thI
and one from Vancouver, B. c., on JAM
uary 80. Letters to Manila require a 81
cent stamp for each half ounce, and
must be marked via Hong Kong if inl
tended to 60 by any of the steam ers
above named. Letters will be taken by
United States transports for two cents,
but there is no certainty when the
transports will go out. 1t is surer to
pay the extra 8 cents and catch the
regular mail steamers.
J. B. Wheat and Carl Peetz, of Moro,
arrived in the city this morning to at
tend meeting of delegates to consult in
regard to the opening of the river above
The Dalles. Strange to say no arrange
ments had been made with the resi-
dents of this city for the holding of q
meeting here, and it appears the pro
! iect originated with the Astoria people.
It'll much regretted by the citizens here
that such is the case, for while no other
delegates have arrived these gentlemen
came to the city at somewhat of an ex.
pense and are disappointed. However
they will meet with members of thC
club this evening and discuss the pro.
ject of SO much import to our people.

"sutton" County Meets an Opponent.

1t seems that Sutton county is to meet
with considerable opposition. Antelope
people,as has been known for some time,
want county of their own to be called
Stockman, and H. G. Rooper is now in
Salem championing the interest of the
latter.
The Sutton county, or town of Mitchell
people, desire to carve tEeir new divi-
zion from the eastern portion of Crook
and the western portion of Grant: the
people OF the town of Antelope have run
their new lines along the southern boun-
dary of Sherman, and tren up the Des-
chutes river to within fifteen miles of
Prineville. Leaders in the Stockman
county project claim an assessable valua-
tion of 100000. Sutton county takes
in spur of the Blue mountains on its
Grant county side, and claims about TIE
came valuation as the proposed county
of Stockman.
Prineyille people express themselves
as not opposed to losing the portion of
Crook to be taken by the proposed Sut-
ton county, but they will not consent to
the loss of what they are pleased to call
the best portion of Crook, which Stock.
man people desire to take away. This
innovation, Prineville Gays, would leave
little else but "the desert" to support
Crook county.
The aspiring towns of Antelope and
Mitchell are between sixty and seventy
miles apart, and the people of the former
town think they would just as soon keep
on going to The Dalles on county busi-
ness as to drive to Mitchell. Therefore
they are prepared to object to any new
county formation unless they can have
the countv-sea themselves.
