Directly after Easter the ladies of the
Episcopal Guild will have sale of USE
full and fancy articles. The place of sle
will be announced later. In the mean
time any orders for work will be re-
ceived by them.
D. c. O'Reilly has resigned his posi-
ton as general Llanager of the Colum-
bia Southern and has accepted that of
vIce-president, with headquarters at
| Portland. For the present President
| Lytle will look after the managing de-
partment.
Next Wednesday evening is the time
when Dalles people will have the oppor-
tunity of listening to the ga. L. P. s."
quartet. On that evening the ladies OF
the Lutheran church give their concert
at the Baldwin opera house. Many
other vocalists will take part.
This morning DR.. Hollister received a
letter from DR.. S. II. Frazier, saying
that he has taken up his residence in
Berkeley, Calf. and has opened denS
tai Office there. He, with his family, are
perfectly delighted with their new homes
which anyone who has visited there will
agree is beautiful place.
Two little minstrels-a boy and d
girl-are doing our city at present, and
| this afternoon attracted crowds on the
street corners. Both are good musicians,
one playing the guitar and the other the
mandolin. They have visited different
towns in the state, and seem to do a
rushing business in passing the hat.
Mr.. II. ]. Rupert, general travelling
representative of the Eiler's piano
house, Portland's exclusive highgrade
dealers, handling the worlds renowned
Chickering, Kimball. Weber and other
fine pianos, is at the Umatilla house,
in the interest of his company. This
firm is contemplating putting in a branch
Office here.
| Yesterday a marriage license was is
sued by the county clerk to A. L. Hod-
son and Mrs. Inez Broadbent, both of
Hood River. The marriage was to have
taken place at Hood River last night.
However, the lateness OF the train may
have prevented the ceremony taking place
as the groom was to leave on that train.
The bride was formerly Miss Inez Hunt
of this city.
The finer roses in Portland and Valley
! towns are said to have been totally de-
stroyed by the nippiDg frosts this winter.
Such, it is feared, is the case with roses
in this city, many of them having the
appearance of being dead, while others
will have to be cut down to the roots,
making the flowers much later. This is
to be regretted, as much pride is taken
in the roses of our city.
At 2:30 O'Clock this afternoon the
Regulator left the dock, and will MAX g
her way down the river until she meets
the Dalles City, when she expects to
turn around and lead the way on the
home trip. Whether she will or not
remains to be seen; but we have great
faith in her speed. A number of pas
sengers were on board, eager to see her
test her powers as a speeder.
An ordinance prohibiting expectora-
tion on the sidewalks of Salem went
into effect yesterday. It provides for a
fine of 81 to SO on conviction of viola
ton. No doubt if a rigid enforcement
OF the law is made. the city is doing q
land Office business. The effect will al
any rate be beneficial, and The Dalles
should follow euit. Had such a Law
been in force in this city last week, Off
GERS stationed at the court house corner
GOULD have solved the question of the
Ibest way to raise revenue.
Don't forget the concert at the Baldwin
