ADMIRAL DEwEY's BIRTHDAY.
Will Be 81 Years OLD On Christmas
Day

Washington, Dec. 23.-Admiral George
Dewey will be 62 years of age Christmas
day, and under the ordinary process of
law would be placed on the retired list
on that account. The special law under
which he was advanced to the head of
the navy makes no provision for his re-
tirement, and therefore he will continue
on the active list of the navy, in all
probability, until his death.
AS matter of fact, his retirement
would make no material change in his
existing status. His pay would be the
same on the retired list as on the ac-
tive list. and he would be entitled to
the same emoluments and privileges,
including a private secretary with the
rank of lieutenant, and the usual num-
ber of aides The recent death of Lieu
tenant Brumby leaves vacancy on his
staff, for which there is considerable
friendly competition among the young
officers of the navy.
Admiral and Mrs. Dewey spent some
time at the navy department today vis-
iting friends in the various bureaus.

Crook County.
From the Journal:

FROM the Journal:
J. Ii. Gray has old his eutire farm, sit.
uated on Combs fiat, to Il. W. 3reese
one OF Crook County's sn ostantial stock
raisers. The consideration is not made
public but is known to be a good figur,,
and both parties seem to be we'll pleased
over the transaction.
The report that the recent snow storm
killed all the fruit in Crook county was
probably started by those having but
slight knowledge Of the facts. The cold
was not severe and budding was not far
enough advanced to be uaceptible to
light frosts.
A Warm Spring squaw paraded our
streets last Sunday clothed in an old tur-
key red table cloth and a few other nom
descript articlcles of household furniture,
reminding one That Solomon in all his
glory was not arrayed like one of these. :"

tween Prineville and Moro. Without
regarding the interests of any locality
the line should be run on the route that
affords the quickest and best mail facil-
tiles. II this can be accomplished by
