W. II, Hillgen is in from Grass Valley
today. He says the farmers in his vi
cinity are all busy plowing, and every
thing seems lively. When he left Satur-
it was showing or raining. Rain would
be very acceptable in that locality.
R. G. Judson will arrive in the city
tomorrow, when arrangements will be
completed for the Farmers Institute.
The meeting will convene at 10 o'clock
Wednesday morning in the court room,
and on Thursday night the last meeting
will be held. There will be something
interesting for all, ladies as we'll as
gentlemen.

Mr.. S. n. Steele will leave for The
Dalles this morning. where he will join
the ga. L. P. So quartette, which wae
SO well and favorable known to the
citizens of Albany. Messrs. Akers,

Gilbert Kelly, the little son of Thos.
Kelly, had narrow escape from receiv-
i ing fatal injury yesterday. Having
been allowed to accompany companion
to the depot with his father, he, with a
crowd of boys, found his way to Peters
! lumber yard, where they were having a
good time playing on the lumber. One
of tie boys jumped from the pile, caus-
/ ing the lumber to slip and Gilbert fell
underneath it. Being unable TO lift the
load off the little fellow, the boys called
for help, when two railroad men extri-
Gated him and carried him home. His
face was found to be badly bruised
and deep cash cut in the left side oi
his head. Dr.. Doane was called and
took several stitches in the cut, and he
is now able to be around. Twas lucky

thing for Gilbert that he was not hurt
internally.
One of the largest audiences ever as-
sembled in the Congregational church of
this city, greeted the pastor and the A.
L. P. S. quartet last evening. After the
opening services the quartet, composed
of Messrs. Aikers. Lundell, Polling and
Steele, rendered"L the Lower Lights
Be Burning in moet pleasing and eff
fective manner. The gentlemen COM
posing the quartet have delighted audi
ences in different towns in the William
cite valley many times during the
past few years and the effort of their
work together is very apparent. Seldom
have the people of The Dalles had an op-
portunity to hear better male voices.
Their singing last evening will insure
for them a large attendance at the con
cert. The sermon by Rev. Polling upon
the subject of "True Manhood was a
most immpressive one and was listened
to with careful attention by the large
audience.
It will be some satisfaction to those in
terested in fruit-raising, (in fact to
all of us) to learn that Wasco county has
suffered less from the late winter frosts
than any county yet heard from. The
damage seems to be confined to certain
localities, and depends mostly on the
altitude, the fruit on the lowlands suffer-
ing more than that on the hillsides, and
the further west you go in this county
the greater the loss. An exception to
this rule was, however, found when upon
examining same sample branches from
Grants, Mr.. schanno found them in
good condition: while lot sent by Mr..
Root at Mosier, proved badly injured.
The orchards along Mill creek have suf-
fered much more than those on Dry
Hollow and Smile. The situation seems
to battle many. For instance, Mr.. An
derson, of Chenoweth creek, claims
that his fruit has come out in fairly good
shape, while A. Y. Marsh and G.. w.
Halvor, but short distance below his
place, report much of theirs in hope
less condition. And SO reports are con-
ficting. However, Mr.. Schanno stiIl
contends that we are to have good
fruit crop, outside of apricots and por-
tion of the peach crop, all other fruit

Nickel-in-the-sIot Bin.

Regarding this bill, which was filed
by the governor Friday, and the pur-
pose of which is to suppress nickle-in-the-
slot machines, or similar devices, the
Salem Statesman says:
"This bill is expected to abolish the
nickel-in-the-slot machines, but its op-
ponents insiet that it was not legally
passed by the Legislature, and while it
will be on the statute books, and
will have the effect of driving many of
the offending machines out of business,
it will not stand in law. Their asser-
tions are based upon the manner of the
passage of the bill by the Eouse. The
bill, after passing the senate, WAS sent
to the house on February 9Th, where,
after being read twice, it was referred to
the committed on printing, of which Mr..
Curtis, of Clatsop county, was chairman.
On the morning of February 18th, dur
ing the closing hours of the legislative
session, report was called for, but none
was forthcoming, the members of the
committee being unable to produce the
bill, as Chairman Curtis had 1t in his
possession, and he had gone to Astoria.
1.-The memb mbers favoring the measure
clamoEed for the production of the bill,
and in order to satisfy the house, it is
reported, une member of the committee
produced printed copy of the bill, se-
cured the endorsements on the back Of
it to correspond as nearly as possible to
those supposed to be on the missing
document, and banded thie eo-called du-
plicate in as the report of the committee
and this bill was passed by the house as
the original bill. 1t was afterwards
found, so it ls asserted by those in
position to know, that typographical
errors in the bill made the bill passed bv
the house read different from the origi-
nal document, and it, therefore, was not
duplicate, but a substitute or amended
measure, and as such should have been
returned to the senate for concurrence
''This was not done, but the bill was
signedIand forwarded to the executive
Office, and since the bill has received the
governors signature, and has an emer-
gency clanse, it is now in effect, and if
not in fact, 1t is to all intents and pur-
poses good and valid law, and will re-
main 90 unless contested in the courts.

Bad Accident.

Mr. David H. Dodd, of Falling Waters
district and principal of the Fourth Ward
school, this city, met with quite an acci-
dent, as lheresult of which he has now ten
teeth less.
When he returned home on Tuesday
his attention was called to one of those
felted animals called skunks. which had
cured itself in barrel in the carriage
shed. He got down an old musket and
proposed to give the unwelcome visitor a
warm reception. He placed heavy load
in the rusty old gun and got up on top Of
spring wagon in order to get good
shot at it. He was in srch a position that
he could not get the gun under his arm
and he held it out in front of him and
took good aim. Bang went the gun and
it did about as much damage in the rear
as in the front.
The gun flew back and struck him in
the mouth, breaking off almost all his
front teeth and cutting his lips and face
badly Mr. Dodd had to have ten Of his
teeth extracted

rlorgan's Groye Fair.

The fifteenth annual exhibition of the
Morgan's Grove Agricultural, Mechanical
and Live Stock Association will be held
near Shepherdstown next week, Septem-
Der to s inclusive. The fair will be held
on its new grounds, recently purchased
and improved for this purpose. The new
location is most desirable one. 1t has
long been famous as Fountain Rock, I
the once handsome home Of the late Col.
A. r. Botelcr. During the Civil War the
buildings on the place, including the man
sion and the barn, were burned by Union
soldiers. The place remained uncared for
ever since, until last spring it was bought
by the fair association. Ii has now been
thoroughly improved and will be an ideal
place for county fair. New and COM
modious buildings have been erected and
many improvements made to the grounds.

Hicks for September.

SO Mr.. Hicks, the weather prognosti-
Gator, tells us September is the month in
which the seasons shift to opposite ends
of our little terrestrial sphere and one
must look for great and violent activity
among the elemental forces. The first
storm period for September hes between
the end and 9TH. During the first part Of
the period a warm wave will move
out from the western part OF the CONT
nent, and it depends upon either conti-
mental or equatorial storms whether the
wave will be followed by warm or cooler
weather. The globe will pass through a
magnetic crisis from about the 9th to the
18th. AS this will be a special perturba-
ton, there will be magnetic and electrical
phenomena, out of the normal order.
We can also look for phenomenally warm
weather. Meteorological perturbation
touching 18TH, 18th and 10TH. Severe
and dangerous equinoctial storms not
improbable. Look for sudden change
to cooler. Reactionary storm period, 22d;
marked storm condition, goth to 24th,
and dangerous gales probable on land
and sea. Storm period likely about 27th
to goth. But there are no reasonable
grounds for forebodings at any time dur
ing the month as to what will happen, as
Mr.. flick has been known to error more
than once in his weather predictions.

old guard was called out to form the nu-
cleus of the First West Virginia regiment,
now lacks only one company in each reg

There are now elevan companies in each.
1t is not likely that any difficulty will
be experienced in completing the quota,
as there are at least nine places in the
states that now want to be represented
in the guard. Among those which have
filed applications with the Adjutant Cen
eral are Wheeling, Sislersville, Weston.
Charles Town. Chenille, Point Pleasant
Shenandoah Junction, Kingwood and
Rowlcsburg, in Preston county. Every
one of these is anxious to be represented
and the officials are waiting to see which
evinces the most activity before making a
selection.
The places at present represented in
the guard are: First infantry A, Elkins

Bravely Bore the Pain Of Her
Wounded Arm--Couldn't
Appear in Court.

Miss Harriet Olds, OF No. IS Bergen
avenue, who was seriously injured by be-
ing knocked from her bicycle, at Boyd
avenue. by a reckless driver, Monday
evening, was so i'll yesterday that she
could not appear in court against Thos
Maloney, the prisoner. Maloney is being
held on a charge of atrocious assault and
battery. The case was postponed until
next Monday morning, in order to give
the injured girl time to recover from her
nervous shock and injuries. Her brother
appeared in court and told Of his sisters
condition.
The courage displayed by Miss Olds
when the doctor was sewing her arm,
Monday evening. was heroic. She never
WINGED. although nine stitches were put
in her badly cut arm.
The condition of the roadway is partly
responsible for the accident But one
side of the road is safe to ride ON, and
here carriages and cyclists going in both
directions are forced to almost feel their
way There is not enough space for car
riages and bicycles. 1t was because of
this that Miss Olds could not escape the
racing horse. driven by Maloney.
